BuiIdinu of Cities,

The conference of national interests on the subject of the building of cit ies, at Washington. has taken up a big subject. Just what progress it can make with an important problem remains to be seen. We all realize that almost no cities are built as they should be. Almost no cities are built in circumstances that will permit them tp ae built as they should be. The few exceptions are cities like Gary, Ind, mich the Steel trust is said to be making a model city, and which Is built from nothing to a full grown community at once. Most cities are merely a matter of growth. They have small beginnings, and as the community grows 1t provides for it's immediate needs as they arise The small community cannot afford to look very far ahead. A comparatively few years at the most is all that can be considered. So when the community outgrows the needs for which it pro- vided a few years before, it has sim ply to do the work over again on a little larger scale.
 If the modern city could be planned and built at the outset on a scale which would probably provide for it's needs many years ahead. then it would avoid many of the evils from which the average city suffers. And it could safeguard its own rights and have the enjoyment of many, improved condi- tions which would be very difficult and very costly to obtain at the pres ent time.-Buffalo Express.

engine. but as his wrench was too small Mr. Geer secured larger one for him. The light being poor, MT. Geer held an incandescent Tor nm. MT. Geer stood on the engine, and as the can was released the engine started, and both were thrown, MT. Stamm go- ing between the big pulley and the engine frame, and MT. Geer to the floor. A number of men tried to move the engine frame, but could not.
 Jeremiah Reardon, a piper, testified to the engine being in the wash room five years. For his own safety, and not because the valve was defective, he would usually use a wrench 10 smut oIl the steam valve the steam pressure being about ninety pounds. The piston rings and value, he said, had been sent away for repairs. Louis Curtin sa1d he never saw a pipe used to smut the valve.
 P. F. Brennan, who looked after the engine, told of Philadelphia man be- ing at work on the engine, and saying 1t was ready to run. MT. Brennan started the engine and kept it oiled, but the bearing got hot, and he report ed 1t to the foreman. He went after MT. Stamm to fix 1t.
 Master Mechanic Dawber testified that the late w. A. Richmond took the engine apart when it was sent away.
 Called as an expert, M. A. Barber was shown the valve and the seat which he said was worn, otherwise ,the engine would not have started. He ' did not think the engine would have started after having been shut down ten minutes unless the valve leaked enough steam to start 1t, after the tight bearing had been released. Napo- leon Duchette was also called as an expert. being an old engineer, and his testimony was similar.
 Attorney Perkins stated that he had another witness who he wanted to call in this connection, but he was not in the court room, and he asked Tor inc privilege of calling him in the morning. It was o'cclock then, and it was decided to adjourn then until this morning at 10 o'clock.

2e speckIed seautIes.

When Conductor William H. Sweet starts out early in the morning with his little hook and line, it means that before the day is over something will be doing among the trout, for this past master of the art of angling chiefly confines his energies to the speckled beauties. And when he is ac- companied by another fisherman such as Motorman Herman Soules. it Is not at all surprising that they bring back home a string of 26 big ones. This is what happened when these two fshed the brooks out Salem way few days ago and startled the farmers out in that section with their fine catch.
