Chivalry and Fatness.

Have you never noticed that great
personal bulk and chivalry go almost
always together? Well. they do, and I
am reminded of a circumstance that
happened long years ago. There was
in congress from the state of Alabama
a gentleman named Dixon Lewis He
was notorious for his stoutness as well
as for his courtliness and abilities. This
gentleman was Virginian by birth,
but removed early to Alabama, which
state he represented during several
terms of congress and was in the SEN
ate at the time Of his death In 1S4S.
Biographers relate of him that one
time after the adjournment of con-
gress he was on his way home in a
steamer that was wrecked and while
he had an opportunity to do SO refused
to take seat in a small boat because
his great weight would jeopardize the
lives of others in the boat, and, al
though for a time he was in great dan
ger, he was at last rescued. There was
a noticeable combination of chivalry
and Washington Post.

WHEN GAS WAS NEW.
President of First Company Made
"Daring" Experiment.

President Of First Company Made
"Daring" Experiment.
Gas had as much difficulty in making
it's way in New York city apparently
as did the steel framed skyscraper. In
each case it required a man who had
the courage of his convictions to prove
that it was safe, but when once it was
shown that the benefits were greater
than the dangers gas and Skyscrapers
took their places as necessities. In the
case of the skyscraper the designer had
to convince the owner, who had be-
come somewhat fearful of the success
Of his venture because of the COM
ments of his friends, by signing lease
for an office on the top floor for
long term of years. In the case of gas,
and other American, cities before 1T
was introduced into New York, Sam
uel Le9gett the president Of the COM
pany that proposed to bring the much
feared illuminant into use here, had to
prove it's harmlessness in his own
house This was in 1923.
His hsroism attracted good deal of
attention and proved to be a good ad
vertisement, for hundreds if not thou
sands of persons visited the house to
see the iluminant which was said to be
SO much better than candles and fish
oil lamps The house was in the up
town fashionable quarter of the city,
on Cherry hill. 1t was at Cherry
street. only few doors below the big
square Franklin House. in which Pres
ident Washington lived when New
York was the capital, and near the cell
ebrated Cherry gardens. 1t was a mar
row, three story and attic brick struc-
ture with two dormer windows. An
abutment of the Brooklyn bridge now
occupies the site.
Stories of the explosive character OF
gas had spread without the aid of a
press agent, and persons hesitated
about having the pipes run through
their houses. They were willing to
have some one else make the expert
ment, however, and curious enough to
visit the house of the venturesome one
to see what happened. For the time
being all roads in the evening seemed
to lead to Mr.. Leggett's house. Groups
gathered outside in the darkened street
to witness the process of lighting up

Earthquakes as Warnings.

The belief that earthquakes are signs
or warnings owes its origin in part to
prophecies in the Bible, where, for ex-
ample, we read that there shall be
famines and pestilences and earth
quakes" as portending future calami-
ties. Earthquakes have led to the abo-
lition of oppressive taxation. the abo-
lition of masauerades, the closing of
theaters and even to the alteration of
fashion A New England paper of 1727
tells US that "a considerable town In
this province has been so far awakened
by the awful providence In the earth
quake that the women have generally
laid aside their hoped petticoats."-
