KICKING DAY" FOR A CITY.
Mayor of COncinnati Invites Every
body to Tell What's Wrong.

Mayor Calvin, of Cincinnati, be-
lieveing that uniformity in the con-
duct of the public's business is half
the battle to do it right, has adopted
kicking day for all citizens who
have complaints to register against
the municipal government or against
the public service corporations. On
Thursday they are received.
On the other five business days of
the week Mayor Calvin, his Secretary
the three members of the city cabinet
and the members of the different
branches of the city government take
them up and look after them
Up to a recent date no important
kicks were received Those which
were made are mostly in regard to
neglect to clean the streets, the noise
of engines on the grade crossings and
the failure Of the garbage cleaners to
do their work properly.

COULD HANDLE ENTIRE CROP.
Skyseraper Erected in New Orleans
as Sugar Refining Plant.

The manufacturing field has well
coined the skyscraper. In New Or
leans is sugar refining plant four
teen stories high, of capacity so i'm
mense that, with the aid of a smaller
auxiliary plant, it will be able to
handle the entire cane sugar crop of
the United States. Indeed, it would
be able to take care of the best sugar
as we'll if this substance was put
through the same refining process
as cane
The total output of sugar, beet and
cane, in the United States for 1908,
according to government statistics,
was about 100000. The value, in
Guiding such incidental products as
molasses, syrup, etc, is estimated at
$94, 100000 The market value of
this cane to the planter was 1884,
900, 900. Thus this refinery will dis
pose of a nations whole crop, of
enormous valuation In addition it
will undertake to prepare for the
table an additional $95, 100000
worth imported from Cuba, Porto
Rico and elsewhere.
1t cost the American Sugar Re-
fning Company 100000 to erect
this skyscraper. Hitherto, buildings
of this character had been devoted
to office space or to the purposes of
| department stories in the heart of
lcongested city districts. Manufac-
turers, whose business is usually
done through travelling men and job
bers. not being obliged to choose
their location with reference to the
accommodation of their trade, have
seen fit to build comparatively low
structures at distance from the CEN
| trail parts of the city, where the land
| is cheaper.
But in this instance, as an enor-
nous area would otherwise have to
be covered, and through means of a
system of electrically operated con-
veyors, the refiners feel that they
have secured big advantage in con-
lcentrating their plant into one huge
| but compact structure that rears it's
roof 215 feet above the earth.

you would be surprised to see
how warm an igloo is. l can build
one with another man to help in an
hour or an hour and a half. First
we cut large number of blocks from
the frozen snow about three feet long
and two feet wide. 1t is easily done
after you have had a little experience.
After you have cut these blocks you
lay the first or ground layer in cir
Gle, leaving space at the front about
the width of mans body, to be used
as the door. On the inside of each
block you cut an l. shaped shelf to
be placed for the placing of food and
necessaries, and also to dovetail in
to the block above
THE whole house is built in lay
ers, the blocks narrowing toward the
top, where there is just a small hole
left at the apex for ventilation. The
front door, which is just barely high
enough for the average man to crawl
through, is covered with skins of ami
mails to prevent a draught. Just
above the door is a small opening to
allow ventilation and to give the Es-

FARMER BOUND TO FLY.
Been Rendered Unconscious Two or
Three Times. Win Try Again.

Olrich Sorenson, the Berwyn, Neb.,
farmer who three months ago made
an areoplane, attached it to a balloon
and from height of half mile cut
loose and fell to the ground without
serious injury to himself made a
second trial at flying a few days ago,
and again fell from a height of 500
feet without receiving more injuries
than few cuts and bruises. Soren-
son is planning third airship.
The second attempt was made be-
fore thousands who had heard of his
previous flight, and came to see the
second one. Sorenson attached his
machine to swift automobile in or
der to get start from the ground.
The aeroplane made the start all
right, but when at a height of 500
feet something broke and Sorenson
made whirlwind descent to the
ground, where the machine was
smashed to bits and Sorenson render
ed unconscious. In half an hour he
was fully recovered and ready for
another fight.

The beautiful little island which

Wonderful, inded, is the report
that a new island has made it's ap-
pearance not far from the western
coast of North America in the North
Pacific. Strange, yet seeming true,
is the report that, since the unresur-
rectional immersion of this beautiful
little island, unaccountable phe-
nomena are discovered. Oil wells
which heretofore indicated weak
flow of oil are yielding more; many
which indicated a strong flow are
yielding less. Earthquakes seem to

comes to seriously think of the great
unknown. and Works.

ROBINSON
CRUSOEiS ISLAND

Who has not heard of the beautiful
little island on which was, for years,
the pretty home of the romantic yet
solitary Robson Crusoe?" No one
doubts that the island once existed
And the reality of it's lone inhabitant
although he is spoken of in history
by a different name, is an actual
truth. Daniel Defoe's great story was
about a real live man. In view of
these interesting facts the unexpect-
ed fate of this wonderful little island
is, at present, an unsolved problem
Both surprise and mystery.
Only few months ago, had one
been on board ship off the coast of
the land of the snow capped Andes,
Chile, some four hundred miles west
of the beautiful city of of the valley
of Paradise, Valparaiso, he would
have seen this possession of the Chill
can government in the form of a
small but conspicuous rock, but pref
ty, volcanic but substantial looking
speck of land, the shores of which
were furiously dashed, on all sides,
by the angry waves of the mighty
Pacific ocean.
But where is It now?
This magnificent oasis of the ocean
was thirteen miles long and fou:
broad ard surrounded by an almo>
bottomless sea. 1t was for the most
part a panorama of scenic land
-seapes, great, Ceep crevasses, and
very high, steep, rocky peaks. One
of these geological monuments was
YOuque. 1t, being the highest, reach
ed more than 5000 feet heavenward.
Beautiful ferns grew. in the low
lands and in the valleys, the magnifi-
cence of which created a landscape
of matchless grandeur. Valuable
sandalwood trees were once plentiful.
In the more elevated parts of the is
land grew weird species of cactus.
Vineclad crags finished off this park
of the sea with charming splendor.
Hundreds of horses ran wild. Pigs,
thousands of them, in an untame
state, roamed throughout the island
Wild goats We're there in great num-
bers. Birds were seen everywhere.

their rich plumage gorgeous with res
splendent beauty.
This island, Juan Fernandez, was
discovered in 1868 by the man whose
name it bore, and, down to its first
settlement by the Spaniards, in 1850,
was frequently visited by buccaneers.
1t was there that Alexander Selkirk,
a bold buccaneer, lived in absolute
solitude for almost five long years.
His lonely life is supposed to have
suggested the renowned and univer-
sal story of Robinson Crusoe."
One hundred years ago, almost, it
was used by the government of Chile
as a sort of exile prison or peniten-
tiary. But since 1910 it has been
used by the native Chileans who were
seal and sea-lion hunters During
the last days of it's existence, 1905,
the island had a population of more
or less than 200 people

show will notice that there are three
essentials of a high-grade motor car,
good design, the best material and good
workmanship. The lack of any of these
features puts the car off the list of the
man who is looking for an auto. The
individual parts of every car must be
considered in relation to every other
part. for no car is stronger than its
Weakest member.
Buyers at the Omaha show are more
skeptical than at any former exposition,
for the people are learning more and
more each year about automobiles. They
know, for instance, that when the weight
of a car is reduced by one-half the
strains which the parts are called upon
to bear are thus reduced one-half.
The crowd at the Auto show Wednes-
day night vas one of prospective buy
ers and all the machines were carefully
examined. Every booth was filled to
capacity with visitors, who grouped
around the lecturers as these set forth
the merits of the cars. This interest on
the part of the visitors has given the
dealers high hope that sales will reach
enormous proportions and that garages
and salesrooms will be depleted after the
show, just as they were last year, al
though that had been looked upon as an
off year because of the financial furry
which was just passing by.

races which were thrown on a screen at
the front of the stage.
The stage at the show is filled with ac-
cessory men and with dealers who sell
automobile tools, etc. and the size of these
displays are another Indication Of the great
increase of the automobile industry of the
west.
Never has the big Auditorium been decor
ated as beautifully for. any event as it is
for the present show. Streamers of purple
and white, shut from view all the rough
places of the buildings, thousands Of
electric lights make every nook as light as
day and potted plants and cut flowers
on all sides have turned the Auditorium
into a bower Of beauty.
The dealers have all the cars in place
and instead of having to hunt for cars
to fill, the trouble this year has been to
keep out autos to make room for specta-
tors. The dealers have We'd with each
other to see who could produce the most
attractive booth and the result is that
Omaha has a splendid show.
That Omaha may be on the route of the
Glidden tour of 1903 now seems almost
certain and this has added great interest
to automobiling in Omaha. The Omaha
Automobile club met Monday and appointed
a committee to continue the good work
which has already been done for the tour.
Chairman f. II. Hover Of the contest
board of American Automobile association
has Issued the following announcement in
connection with the tour which shows that
Omaha is being considered:
Interest in the 1909 tour was keen at the
Chicago show. Denver sent a delegation
of boosters for the "Mile-high'' burg,
wearing badges with the legend-"Denver
Wants the 1909 Glidden Tour Chicago
boosters also sported badges bearing the
suggestion-"Chicago Minneapolis, Omaha,
