thing. With wheat values already at

est inlling OF the horrors they were
passing through, it would have killed
them.
We asked r-year-old girl who
had been buried in a cellar without
food or light for four days and nights
how she passed the time, Sleeping
and waiting for papa" she answered,
Three children, seven, five and
three years old respectively, had been
entombed for seven days in a small
basement room. Happily the room
contained larder with oranges, SUI
gar and small amount Of bread.
"We were quite sure that auntie or
some one would come and take Us
away" they said
What about the men? We are sor-
ry to say the great majority behaved
like brutes, but there is also a case Of
real antique heroism to be recorded.
A father, after rescuing his wife and
three children, found that the fourth
and last one could not be extricated
alive. He assured the dying little
girl that he would keep her company
on the road to heaven, and putting
his arms around her, stabbed himself
to death.
One cannot bestow praise enough
upon the needlewomen Of Italy. In
the course of single week they
stitched together garments for hun
dred thousand, while in every city
and town numerous working girls
gave up their only holiday in the week
to devote the wages earned to the
cause of the sick and suffering.

males. The inmates of an old mans

From the foregoing it is apparent
that Col. Thompson has led a stren-
uous life and occupied pi )minent

which his lines have been cas- Now
in the quiet evening OF lCAg and
useful life, he can look back upon
the rugged way with an approving
conscience and find sweet rest in the
consciousness of duty we'll perform
ed. Many years of his youth and
early manhood were spent in the
discharge Of the exacting tasks of the
printing office. -Four years of his
mature manhood were given to the
service OF his country on the tented
field, and ten years more to his State
during the horrors of reconstruction,
even worse than war. Surely no man
could do more.
His sacrifice has been great; his
allegiance to truth and fidelity un-
lalllnS, ana his reward sure. His
name and place in the history of our
State is permanently fixed. 1t Win

and when the things of time and
sense snail fail from his mortal Wis
ion, rich inheritance will be be-
queathed to his State and country.
In peace and war, Duty, that
weightlest word in all our language" ;"
was his watchword. And now, after
more than four-score years of labor.
in simple, child-like faith, he awaits
the call to service in that other and
better country, where inhabitants
never grow old and love is the law of
life.

Her Value was 500 II Pound.

New York, June 1I.-Weighing
500 pounds, Miss Kittie Pmnkette,
who gives her home as \. " York,
fell off an electric car in Elizabeth,
n. j., on October 8, 1908, and, so she
asserts in a suit against the public
service corporation, has since lost
2oo pounds as the result of the acct
dent, to the great detriment Of her
value as an attraction at county fairs.
Miss Plunkette has sued for $4,000
damages, setting forth as her main
claim the loss OF weight. Thus, it
appears. she sets the value OF her
lost adipose at 500 a pound.

resumed on December IS, at 8 D. m.

Two days sufficed for discussion and

AS the names were signed one bv

took up the cry and hailed it as the
second Declaration of independence
of the State. Bonfires were kindled
In every street; fireworks blazed on
all sides and qualification rested on
every face. December 20, 1860,

The conflict of arms was regarded
as inevitable. and military compa-

tionizinG Construction of Houses.
CTrentOn, \. j., Times. }


Thomas A. Edison, it is announc-
ed, has about completed his plans
for the cheap concrete houses which
he promised year ago, and if the
statements made are true, he will
more than keep his promise. 1t will
be possible to build of concrete for
200 each, houses that would cost
at least $4,000 If stone were used
in the construction; but they must
be built in blocks.
The Edison plan calls for q house
25 by 80 feet, with an eight-foot
front porch and three-foot back
stoops. Each house will contain six
rooms and bath, with cellar under
entire building, to contain boiler
wash tubs and coal bin. Walls. roof
porches, bath tub and laundry tubs
Will all be of reinforced concrete.
only the doors, windows and frames
will be of wood. There Will be no
plaster finish
Nj. Edison says it will be possible
ioi SNtIE "OlkInSman TO own his
home or occupy separate house:
that it will take four days to set ND
the moulds, six hours to pour in the
concrete, four days more for the con-
crete to harden and four days more
to remove the moulds-less than q
fortnight to finish the house. The
cast iron moulds to be used to begin
extensive building will cost $25. 900
and the concrete plant will cost S15.-
more, so that it will be necessary to
interest capitalists in the work.

the betterment of the world bv his
many Inventions, but If his cheap
homes plan is successful it Will be
the crowning work Of his life. for If
Will benefit the hundreds OF thou-
sands OF families in modest circum-
stances, and go far toward relieving
