LAYING BRICKS.
How Scientific Methods Raised tho
Standard Of Days Work.

How Scientific Methods Raised the
Standard Of Days Work.
There are now eminent consulting
engineers who are engaged by indus
trial heads to study their establish
ments from top to bottom with view
to finding by scientific study the meth
DDS of working. accounting and han
ding labor which will improve on the
old traditional habits. Some extraordi-
nary results have been attained. What
scientific management means Is ad-
mirably illustrated by the story of
bricklaying. as told by an expert.
Ordinarily brick mason makes
eighteen different sets of motions in
laying a single brick. He bends over.
I'm the first place. to pick up one brick.
and In lifting it he lifts ten pounds Of
brick and about hundred pounds of
brick mason-the upper part OF his
own body. In laying 1000 bricks in q
days work he lifts 100000 pounds Of
brick mason This was an obvious
waste of labor. SO common laborer
was hired TO put the bricks where the
masons would not have to stoop for
them. Another thing Is that when
mason picks up a handmade brick,
which is always n little thicker at one
side than on the other. he losses the
brick up. turning 1t over until his
touch tells him which side Is the top
before he puts It In place in the wall
The cure for this was TO have all the
bricks piled top up before they were
brought to the masons. Then. further,
every one has seen the mason tap his
brick several times TO settle II into the
mortar-more waste OF time. The cure
was 10 make the mortar thinner. so
that the weight of the brick would set
tie It into the right position. This was
scientific management. motion study"
1t raised the days work for the aver
age brick mason from 1000 up to 200
bricks day and in individual cases to
much higher figures. The mason made
only six motions where he used to
make eighteen.-American Review OF
Reviews.

SCENES IN FRENCH COURT.
Realistically Depicted in Madame X'
at kerredee This Evening.

For the first time in theatrical his
tory the methods of a French Court in
a capital case are accurately present
ed on the stage in Henry w. Savage's
production of the celebrated European
and American dramatic sensation
Madame X', which is to be offered to
local theatergoers at the Kerredge the
alter this evening. The procedure is in
sharpest contrast to which prevails in
America. In the widely discussed last
act of this play a woman is brought to
the bar on justice on charge of muir
der, and an actual trial takes place as
i'm a Paris courtroom. This thrilling
scene is said to reach the acme Of
stage realism. The witnesses are
sworn; the lawyers present their pleas
and the Judge charges the jury exact
ly as i'm the actual Partisan courts.

THE STEEPLE JACK.
He Must Conquer Many Difficulties In
His Dangerous Work.

He Must Conquer Many Difficulties In
His Dangerous Work.
The successful steeple jack must
possess determination, perseverance
and ingenuity. He must solve many
a practical problem in hosting great
bodies aloft. He must know how to
fasten hook over the summit OF a
skyscraping chimney. He must have
the nerve to paint steeple that sways
like pendulum at the slender top. He
must be able to tear down, build up.
gild, paint, place electric wires and do
many another task that would be
difficult enough on the solid earth.
There are many ways of getting up
on a steeple, and when all others fail
the man will tie rope around it and
then, with coil on his back, walk
round and round it until the entire
steeple is covered with rope. and in
such case he has probably been round
it fully 800 times.
But a steeple is not the most diff
cult height to climb. Straight, tall
chimneys are the hardest Of all. There
a man has to work with might and
main to lift himself inch by inch from
the ground to the top. Sometimes the
top is 300 feet high When it is reach
ed hook Is placed over the edge, a
pulley is made fast, the swinging chair
is hauled up and work begins.
When the chair is near the top it is
easier to work, because the ropes are
short, but when they lengthen as the
ground is approached there is ten
dency to swing, and the wind gives
impetus.
The steeple jacks safety depends
upon the hook, and until he has raised
himself almost to the top it is impos-
sible for him to see whether or not the
hook has been properly adjusted.
More than once steeple climber has
seen when within ten feet Of the top
that corrosion of the iron and the col
lection of SCOT have SO thickened the
wall that the hook is merely balancing
on the top, so that the slightest pull
in the wrong direction would drag it
off. Again, the bricks are often loose

tear them away.
One of the natural difficulties to con-
quer is the swaying of all high stee-
pies and chimneys. In gale a steeple
point will sway foot and half.
Usually it sways from seven to nine
inches. Painting it means. reaching
for spot on the right side, and find
ing 1t on the left, and, when making
a dive for 1t on the left, to see it sway
back to the right Yet in spite of the
constant danger born steeple jack ex-
uits in his work and is at home, like
the ironworker on the skyscraper. only
when high above the world. He can
stand triumphantly at any height. If
he can have two and one-half square
inches to bear his weight.-Harper' s

MERCIFUL CAESAR.
A Story of the Great Roman and a
Band of Pirates.

A Story Of the Great Roman and
Band of Pirates.
Caesar travelled with the retinue of a
man Of rank, and on his way to
Rhodes he fell in with All adventure
which may be something more than
legend. When he was crossing the
Aegean, his vessel is said to have been
taken by pirates. They carried him
to Pharmacists, an island off the Ca
rian coast, which was then in their
possession, and there he was detained
for six weeks with three of his attend
ants, while the rest of his servants
were sent to the nearest Roman sta
ton to raise his ransom.
The pirates treated him with polite
ness. He joined in their sports, played
games with them, looked into their
habits and amused himself with them
as well as he could. frankly telling
them at the same time that they would
be hanged.
The ransom, very large one, about
10000, was brought and paid, Caesar
was set upon the mainland, near Mi
letus, where, without moments
delay, he collected some armed vessels,
returned to the island, seized the
whole crew while they We're dividing
their plumber and took them away to
Pergamus, the seat Of government in
the Asiatic province, where they were
convicted and crucified. Clemency was
not Roman characteristic 1t was
therefore noted with some surprise
that Caesar interceded to mitigate the
severity of the punishment The pocl
wretches were strangled before they
were stretched OH the crosses and
were spared the prolongation of Their
torture.--James Anthony Froude

WHAT HAVE YOU FOUND TO EAT?
The next day he commenced to grow
And got both tall and fat.
BY noon he was at least the size
OF any ordinary cat.
At dinner time poor Clarence lay
Quite sick upon the mat.
His size more like an elephant
Than that Of any rat.
Now. sweet, forgiving Mrs: Rat.
So worried did she feel.
She sought the paper bag from which
He ate his hearty meal.
"The Magic Fertilizer!" she
Saw printed on the seal
And put her little brain to work
With courage and with zeal.
She found bag Of alum. and
A lot she did apply.
And soon was well rewarde for
While watching by and by
She saw him shrink to normal size,
And. with little sigh,
She gently murmured in his ear.
I'm glad you didn't die"

First try it on your neighbor:
It's apt to save you suffering
And others thought and labor.
