Good Reasoon to Hurry.

The trials of a musical accom- panist are many, if we may credit all the stories told of them. A young professional recently played accom- paniments for the performers at a private entertainment for fash ionable charity lasting for nearly two hours.
 "lIcre, you sec, have no chance to take breath for ten bars" said the amateur flute player, indicating to the accompanist passage in his opening solo. ''Therc are a num- Der of such places ill my solos, and if you'll hurry the time whenever you come to them it will be relief to my wife, for all my family are subject to apoplexy and I've already had one slight attack"

Valley Forge Rewritten.

The record for inaccuracy about things American would seem to be- long to Tit-Bits, d London weekly of large circulation. The following startling statement appeared in an article on Christmas day battles:
 The famous battle of Valley Forge was fought during the War ot American Independence on Christ mas day in 177S. The English were preparing to enter Savannah. They had already confiscated most of the good things in the neighboring city of Philadelphia, and the American army, in none too good a plight, met their foes on this memorable day and sent them to the right about Boston Globe.

President Temple, of the local power company, received wire today from the Alaska Steamship officials at Seattle telling him that a carload of machinery had been shipped north on the Mari posa which had left Seattle July 18th.
 The shipment contains the big pelton wheel ordered month ago. The largest piece in the shipment weighs $500 pounds and the company expect to ex- perience no difficulty in taking the machinery from the bay to the basin.
 The generator was shipped from the factory some time ago and is expected on the boat leaving Seattle on the 18th.
 The company will then discon- tinue the local steam plant which has been giving but poor satis- faction at best and will com- mence manufacturing juice across the bay.

&xtrsMsly High onss Os Net Have tiss
 orsa<sst vibrations.


 Greatest vibratiens. By day or night modern city A tlever wholly at, rest. .. A hundred disturbing factors are constantly sstting up curious vibrations which travel in every direction. The trac- ing out of these vibrations and their accurate measurements is a new problem among builders which has peculiar interest for the layman as We'll. This problem of feeling the pulse of buildings is not limited to great cities, but often arises in con- paratively small towns throughout the country. Let train rush past the foundations of high building, or even a low one, or a powerful windstorm beat against its walls, and the entire structure may vibrate like a giant tuning fork. Inciden- tally the problem is so well under stood that accidents from excessive vibration are practically unheard of. The cradle may rock, but it never falls.
 The measure of the pulselike vi- brations is made much the same as that of an earthquake and almost as accurately. The marvelously delicate instruments which are de- pended upon for these records trace curious pulsing lines, which show at glance just how wide an arc the building swings through and how regular is the recurrence of the movement. These readings are &C., cepted in court as absolutely con- elusive, and it is not uncommon for damage suits involving immense sums of money to be decided by these delicate tracings.
 Public opinion is all wrong, or nearly so, as to the amplitude of the vibrations of buildings both large and small. Every one has felt such vibrations, but ones sensations are apt to be very misleading. It is a surprise to many that the most vio- lent vibrations arc not felt in the extremely high buildings, as is com monly supposed, but in the com paratively low office buildings, and as rule these of solid construction, A vibration of .three-sixteenths of an inch is extremely violent, for a movement of oneAhundredth of an inch is readily noticeable. As the records show, there is peculiar method or rhythm in these move ments, the building swaying back and forth through given arc with the regularity of pendulum.- Christian Herald.

WANT NO DUTY
 ON BANANAS

New York, July 15.-The i'm porters of bananas have start ed an agitation in the hopes of having the proposed duty on the fruit abandoned.

Grandfather Frog was SO busy watch
ing Longlegs that he quite forgot that
there might be other dangers. Be
sides. his bask was to old Whitehall,
or course Whitehall saw this. and it
made him almost chuckle aloud. Ev-
err so many times he had tried to catch
Grandfather Frog. but always Grand
father Frog had seen him long before
he could get near him.
Now. with all his keen sight old
Whitehall had failed to see some one
else who was sitting right in plain
sight. He had failed because his
mind was SO full of Grandfather Frog
and Longlegs that he forgot to look
around as he usually does. Just
STUNNING the tops of the %bulrushes
he sailed swiftly out over the Smiling
Pool and reached down with his great
cruel claws to clutch Grandfather
Frog. There he sat pretending to be
asleep. but all the time watching
Longless and deep down inside chuck
ling to think how. he was foolfng
l-onglegs and all ready to jump the
minute Longlegs tried to get nearer.
Just a teeny. weeny second more and
the Smiling Pool would never again
see Grandfather Frog.
Slap! That was the tail Of Jerry.
Muskrat hitting the water. Grand
father Frog knew what that meant
danger. He didn't know what the
danger was and he didn't wait to find
out. There would be time enough
later. When Jerry. Muskrat slapped
the water with his tail that way dan
ger was very near. indeed. With a
frightened "chugarum!" Grandfather
dived headfirst into the Smiling
Pool, and SO close was old Whitehall
that the water vas splashed right i'm
his face. He clutched frantically with
his great claws. but all he got was q
piece OF the big green lily-pad on
which Grandfather Frog had been
and, Of course. this was of no
for an empty stomach.
With a scream Of disappointment
n anger he whirled in the air and
made straight for Jerry Muskrat. But
jerry Just laughed in the most pro-
Voking way and ducked under water.
