Carnegie. 1t is a beautiful structure
of white marble of a combined classi-
cal and Spanish type. One Of its at
tractive features is the patio, filled
with tropical plants and flowers from
the various republics.
Upon the walls of the building are
the escutcheons in colors of the
American republics with names OF
their heroes of war and peace

Chicago was ordered by States At

He (Wayman) further shows the
court that on the 2Sth day of April
A. D., 1910, a certain bill in chan
Gerry was filed in the Superior Court
of Cook County by one John c. Fet-
zeE, in which said Fetzer claims that
large amounts of money in his pos
session, but really the property of
the Chicago and Western Indiana
Railroad Company, were used for
unlawful purposes of bribing public
officials"
About three years ago Fetzer, with
Benjamin Thomas, then president of
the Chicago and Western Indiana,
and Charles R. Kappes, real estate
expert, set about to acquire a right

leges that Fetzer acted as its agent,
while Fetzer declares that he was
not an agent, but a Spectator, who
purchased lam and sold it to the
company, the company having the
right to reject any parcel offered.
In February last charges were
made that Fetzer, Thomas and Kappes
had defrauded the company out OF
SS50,000 in those deals. Suit was
threatened by the road, but after

formal agreement of the parties con-

Americans Drink Much Water.

Our habits of water drinking have
been so generally noticed, chiefly IN
Europe, that physicians must have
thought frequently of what reasons
led to our great use of water.
In England as well as in France the
climate is decidedly more humid than
in the United States. Here we have
long periods of dry, sunny weather.
In the autumn there may be success
sion of weeks OF clear, bracing
weather.
In France and in much of western
Europe since the annals of Caesar the
humidity of autumn has been proven
bial. We may well expect such great
differences in climate to produce va
riations in habits, and the evapora-
ton from the skin in the weather
prevailing with us might account for
our greater use of water.-From the
Medical Journal.

for the coveted aviation prize of
$4,000 for a flight from London to

ed turn by reason of the French
man, Louis Paulhan, stealing amarch
on his English rival, Graham White,
which placed him 20 miles ahead
in the race when darkness compelled
both to alight for the night.

for the start Paulhan had on him
and returned the trick. Starting

stantly increasing crowds gathered

bors, returned to his hotel and went
