days after 1t Is advertised until we can
receive bids. 1t will be lot at per cent.
This will give the city quite premium
This extra money can be used for the more
pressing present needs. and will more than
make up for a higher rate Of interest. We
received yesterday an offer for the tenn
por;,ry $50, 00O, 900 loan at ga per cent in
terest That shows how good the city's
credit is"

TOO MUCH PRESSURE.
Water Tower Feed Pipe Gives Way
Under Strain at Fire.

NEW YORK. July 17.-So strong was
the water pressure at two-alarm fire in
the six-story building at ], and Bond
street early yesterday evening that. In
stead of aiding the firemen. 1t hindered
them in their work. The water tower
had scarcely been put nto position in
front of the building when the pressure
of 40 pounds at the base of the to YER
burst the big siX-inch feed pipe, and 1t
WA five minutes or more before another
pine could be put in place.
~ mat me three COMPANIES had en-
tered the top floor of the building, where
the fire was. from the rear. and were
gradually driving tire fire toward the
front of the build ng. where the water
tower could fight it. Thr e OF thei. / mes
burst however. and before new lines
could be put in lace Of them the water
tower. which had been prepared, drove
the flames back on the men. until they
had to send word to the front Of the
building for the pressure to be cut down.
But before they did this they had en-
driven of the floor and down the fire
escapes of the fifth floor. The stream
from the water tower ripped OF big Sec
lions Of the mansard roof and sent the
slate topping INTO the street.
The blaze did about $4,000 damage.

STADIUM PRICES TOO HIGH.
That Is Why Attendance at Olympic
Games Is So Small.

LONDON. July 17.-There is no doubt
that the prohibitive prices asked for seats
at the Stadium are responsible for the
poor attendance. Uncovered seats oppo-
site the winning post cost s120. and the
cheapest covered seats. from which a sat-
isfactory view of the racing is impossible,
cost 20 cents.
The other covered seats cost S1.j0. 81. 80
and S., and if a spectator wants to spend
the day in the Stadium he has to pay
half as much again. On the day of the
Marathon race these prices will be dou-
bled.
Mr.. Sullivan. president Of the American
Amateur Athletic Union, says that the
seats were empty owing entirely to the
stupidity of the promoters, The admis-
sion prices were not only ridiculous but
impossible. He was willing to wager
that the Stadium would be packed if 90
cents was asked for a seat for the day
of issue. The management was losing
hundreds of pounds daily. If reasonable
prices were charged the public would GO
to the Stadium.

Church a Reforming Church He said, in
part: 1.-THE church has retained too many
ideas Of the sixteenth century and the far
past The old Heidelberg catechism needs
reforming. Who cares to hear at this
late day that the 'Ro nish mass is a ours ,u
idoiatry.' following the tailor-made clothes
of the sixteenth century? The worIi of
the sixteenth century Was a narrow word
not the world Of touay. The need of thu
twentieth century Is to reform prac-
tees
The speaker said there Were things to
be learned in this century from othe.

church; the reforming church.

When Abraham Lincoln was BOY
he lived in a log cabin. Lincoln haa
small logs nailed to the walls and one
or two boards underneath TO keep IL
firm. This was his bed. Abraham
Lincoln made all his own furniture.
The republicans declared that IT they
secured a majority they would erect
Abraham Lincoln United States senator.
The people said we will have Stepheh
A. Douglas or Abraham Lincoln Tor
senator. Lincoln made a speech ana
addressed the convention that nominal
ed him at Springfield, A month later
Douglas made a speech at Chicago
Abraham Lincoln, who was present, an :
swered Stephen A. Douglas the next
evening. A few days later Douglas,
who had taken the stump. replied 70
Lincoln at Bloomington, and the next
day was again answered by Lincoln AT
Springfield. Lincoln was defeated IN
the senatorial election, but his great
speeches won for him a national repu-
tation. The republican party met az
Chicago OF 500 electoral votes cast.
Lincoln received 1S0- If Lincoln is
elected, said the governor, the secession
of South Carolina from the Union viii
be necessary. Lincoln was elected

of Lincoln meant the abolition OF slav-
