improvements About Capitol Add
Much to Its General Beauty.

One of the first features which claims
the attention of visitors at the State
House, this fall, is the great improve
ment which has been made during the
past summer to the approaches of the
structure, particularly on State street.
which has added 100 per cent to the
appearance of the handsome grounds
which surround it, In order to bring
about this change for the better sever
al things We're done one of them being
that the line of State street was SO
changed from Capitol street 10 Union
street that the sharp curve in front Of
the main entrance of the State House
grounds was practically eliminated,
and the street itself which was thus
wdened in places from 10 to % feet.
WAS given coating of tar macadam.
with the result that it is one of the
finest pieces of highway in the city
Another change for the better was
here made by removing the old and
unsightly picket fence which marked
the western boundary of the State field
from Capitol to Union street. and
placing in its stead a neat granite
curling, which really added a finishing
touch To the entire work. On the west
side of the street several wire carry
ing poles nave been removed, and it
is understood that the few which re-
main will at no distant day be re-
placed by neat poles of metal Work in
the way of further improvement of
the western boundary of the State field
is still in progress, where earth is be-
ing hauled in for the purpose of Gov
ering the old retaining wall. and which
will eventually become a neat terrace
from the State street curbing to the
field below. II is now expected that
with the coming of another season the
State field may be beautiied by trim
ming up the trees and removing such
as have become unsightly

When the cold winds blow after the snow falls. the needles on the pine trees that cover the mountains like a great shaggy coat drop off They pro- tect the snow from the rays of the sun and retain if on the mountainside until well into the summer. When one digs in these forests it is sometimes possible to find as many as ten to fiji teen layers of snow and ice between blankets of pine needles. from which the water melts slowly and steadily to feed the streams.-Exchange.

CHARACTER.

Characters are achieved not received. They grow out of the substance of mans soul. They are hot put on as a beqgar might put on stolen coat. They mature like fruit from the vital fluids of the tree. They grow with use. A false limb wears out, wastes with use. A natural limb grows stronger and better with use. Character is an achievement.-C. H. Fowler.

Bishop Thomas D.. Nicely of New Or

In a speech which has no parallel in
the history OF Methodism he reviewed

the action of the committee on Episco-

He spoke with intense feeling and at
times was loudly a%pplauded. When
he concluded there was silence, but no
attempt to act on the bishops plea.
