The new giant liner II stood on end
would top the Metropolitan tower in
New York by 176 feet. If set down
in the middle Of Broadway between
Twenty-slxth and Twenty-ninth street
1t would occupy the length of almost

SALEM BOX
FACTORY is
DESTROYED
EARLY SATURDAY MORNING
BLAZE REDUCES BUILDING TO
ASHES AND THREATENS TO
DESTROY VALUABLE PLANT
OF FALLS CITY LUMBER COM
PANY-LOss COVERED BY IN
SURANCE-CAUSE A MYSTERY.

The Salem box factory was reduced
to ashes Saturday morning, when a
fire broke out that completely de-
stroyed it and which threatened for a
time to ignite and destroy the lumber
yards of the Falls City Lumber Com
pany.
1t was valued at $4SOO and was
covered by an insurance of $4,000.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The fire was first observed at about
2 o'clock, and the alarm sent in.
When the fire department arrived
upon the scene the building was COM
pletely enveloped in flames. The de-
partment did what it could extinguish
them but it's efforts proved ineffectu-
al, and it then devoted it's attention
toward keeping the flames from
spreading to other buildings, and in
this It was successful.
The factory had lain in idleness
since about two years ago when it
went into bankruptcy. 1t was pur-
chased by the banking firm of Ladd
& Bush and Dr. j. w. Meredith, and
they, in return, about two weeks ago,
sold it to a Portland corporation.

Powder Blast Kills Two.

Wayne.-Two men were killed in
an explosion at the Dupont powder
works, two other men and one woman
were injured by flying stones and
glass and many others had narrow
escapes. The dead are Simon Till
son, aged fifty-six, of Lincoln Park,
and John Alisat, aged twenty-six, Of
Little Falls. They were hurled more
than 500 feet and their bodies were
blown into bits. 1t is believed that
a particle of some foreign substance,
accidentally carried in by the men on
their shoes, came in contact with
powder and so caused the explosion.
The mill, wooden one-story shack,
far removed from the other buildings,
was leveled and the timber hurled in
all directions.

REASON FOR PETERS TEARS
Wire From Bale Of Hay Caught In
Mouth Of Hippopotamus Caused
Big Animal to Weep.

Peter cried steadily for nearly a
week, and the keepers at the Bronx
zoo in New York could not imagine
what was the matter with him. Peter
could not tell them, because he had
never learned to speak English, and
he was only hippopotamus. anyway.
He just stood in his big cage and let
the tears run down his cheeks. He
would uot eat, and all he would do
was open his mouth so wide that you
might have showed bale of hay into
1t. 1t was bale Of hay that had
caused all the trouble. When, at last,
the keepers looked down into the back
Of Peters great red mouth they saw
that an iron wire that had been used
for baling hay had been jabbed into
the flesh and was sticking there. 1t
was no wonder that Peter cried and
could not eat. The keepers fixed the
hippo's jaws open, and then one Of the
men reached in and tied cord to the
wire. 1t took three men to pull it out,
but they did 1t, and then Peter went
to work on the dinners that he had
not been eating.

GOOD POINTS OF DAIRY cow
Pliable Elastic Skin-Udder
Is Important Feature.

good dairy COW possesses rather
thin, pliable, elastic skin. A coarse,
harsh handling skin Is a poor indica-
ton. When cows possess these quail
ties of skin they are rarely good pro-
ducers.
Much attention should be given the
udder of the dairy cow-a large udder
does not indicate that it is good one.
They are often very fleshy: a good
adder should be elastic and pliable,
and shows many folds when MIXED
out. The teats should be placed
equal distances apart and which is
generally always the case If the udder
Is symmetrical and we'll proportioned
Large milk veins are good Indications,
the more winding and branching they
are the better the indication. The
veins do not carry milk. as many
think, but carry the blood from the
udder to the body and the more
blood that passes through the udder
the more milk there Is produced be-
cause the milk is produced from the
blood.

MISHAP TO "JACK AND JILL"
Certain Familiar Mother Goose Rhyme
Is Revised by Copy Read In
Newspaper Office.

Good nonsense grows out of good
nonsense. A writer in the Chicago
Tribune imagines what "copy-read-
er" in a newspaper Office would do
with a certain familiar Mother Goose
thyme. The copy-reader, who has
had reporters training, and has
learned to write everything alike, sits
down .or few moments, and revises
Jack and JILL somewhat as follows:
Jack, aged seven. son of Peter Jones,
29s Spring street, and Jill, aged six,
daughter Of Mrs. Abigail Thompson,
296 Spring street, at eleven o'clock
yesterday morning walked UP the hill
near the junction of Blinker avenue
and Fordyce place.
For the purpose, as Jill afterward
explained, Of procuring pail Of water
although the improbability Of their
finding water at the top of a. hill nat
urally suggests itself.
Jack, who was carrying the pail,
had started on the return trip, accom-
panied by the little girl, when he
stumbled, as is supposed, over some
obstacle in his path, and fell, his head
striking the ground with great vio-
.ence. Doctor Slack, who was at once
summoned. pronounced the lads in
jury to be fracture of the anterior
portion of the Uranium, and ordered
his immediate removal to Blessington
hospital
And Jill, who had fallen at the same
time, either through excessive fright
or In consequence of having stumbled
ceived no serious injury, went home
unassisted.

An apparatus to teach swimming

the fact that it will teach the proper

a habit the pupil will strike out in the

hits the water. The novice lies on

Woman Freed by Jury.

Pennsville. The spectators clapped
their hands and shouted while Mrs
Robinson stood up and cried, THANK
God, thank God, thank God She
fell on the neck Of her father and
wept. Mrs Robinson testified that
she kept house for Harvey and a
companion. On June II Harvey
didn't go to work because he was
sick. She heard Harvey walking
around the room, she said, and he
came and lay down on the bed with
his hands under his head. Harvey
again asked If she loved him, and she
replied in the affirmative. She then
heard the clicking of revolver and
Harvey placed his hand, which held
the weapon, in her lap and asked her
to shoot him, she said. At the re-
quest of Mr.. Ashbridge, his associate.
James M. Davis, lay on the cot in
about the same position in which
Harvey was when shot, The defend
ant said she raised herself and placed
her hand in her lap; the revolver
went off, but that 1t was in Harvey's
hands and not hers. At this point
cot was brought into the room and
the defendant was asked to take a
seat showing the position she had Oh
the bed on the day of the tragedy.
Then she broke down for the first
time, cried and moaned and said "she
wished she could be with him now
