according to local army men. It was
Gen. Scott who handled the entire
border situation for many months.
The dispatches giving the informa-

FEED COMPANY HAS
F|REPROOF BUILDINGS
Paxton Offices and Warehouses
Built With Latest EIevat-
ing Equipment

The new offices and warehouses of
the Paxton Flour and Feed Company
and the Harrisburg Storage Company,
437-445 South Second street, recently
completed some of the best and most
modern equipment of any large whole
sale house in this section of the State.
The eight-story household goods
and five-story grain storage buildings
have been made f1reproof in every re-
spect and hardly piece of wood has
been used in the construction. The
eight-story general merchandise stor-
age house is built according to the
most approved style of fire retardent
construction.
Three buildings are built together
but are separated by thick fireproof
walls. With the exception of one door
and one window the only way to get
from one to the other is on the out
side. Each building is equipped with
a large freight elevator, those in the
feed and general merchandise houses
each having a capacity of two tons
and the third a capacity of 5000
pounds. In case of fire on any floor
the doors all close, which are fire.
proof and enclose the flames in a
small place.
One building contains 121 rooms for
storage, each enclosed in tireproof re-
inforced concrete walls with solid
wood doors encased in metal. The
rooms vary in size and have capacities
for from one quarter to more than
two and a half carloads of furniture.
The stairways in each building have
fireproof doors at the top of each floor
which close automatically in case of
fire. The spiral grain and general
merchandise shutes are equipped in
the same manner.
In the Paxton flour and feed build
ing are two grain elevators each haY-
ing a raising capacity of 1900 bushels
per hour.
When a carload of grain arrives,
the whole load is emptied into the
bin in the cellar by shute and then
is carried up to the fifth floor by the
elevator and emptied into a shute to
be delivered to the proper bin. This
shute is operated on the first floor and
when the bin, which holds 1000
bushels, is full it signals automatical-
ly. There are twenty-one bins alto
gether.
The grain is packed in bags on the
second floor or If necessary trolley
shutes are used 10 run it down to the
first floor.
The buildings have a storage ca
pacity of 500 cars, have seventeen
doors, nine of which face the railroad
riding, and 100000 pound track
scale. Each section % the building is
equipped with firehose, all the doors
have metal stripping, and all rooms
are built so that fire can not burn in
them for any length of time, because
the supply air is cut off.

BY ELBERT HUBBARD

The man who put the roar in East
Aurora was c. J. Hamlin, known to
the horse fraternity as PA"
Pa Hamlin had the reputation at the
grocery of being a tightwaddo, but
once when I went to him and asked
him to subscribe a hundred dollars to
buy a town park he asked, How much
is the park, SOM" "Six thousand dol
lars" ] announced, and he drew me a
check for the six thousand.
Pa Hamlin succeeded in raising and
training forty-one trotters and PAGERS
that made records better than 2.20.
Altogether he put two hundred and
one in the 2.30 list.
The reason Pa Hamlin succeeded in
the horse business was because he was
horse lover.
The horse is a nervous, sensitive ami
NAL. His success in working himself
up out of the Darwinian evolutionary
wriggle has been his ability to run and
to use his heels The horse takes great
pride in his speed. When he SHES he
sees an imaginary enemy, and his inn
pulse Is to hike. Then he may run
Just for fun, and if you are not careful
he will get the habit.
Buffalo Jones, who took eleven
horses to Africa and rounded UP all
the fierce things that Teddy do Roose
was unable to kill, says that an Ameri-
can horse can outrun any animal that
goes on four feet.
In order to outstrip the horse your
entry will have to be something that
flies.
We often hear talk of the speed of
Ara abian horses. but in strength,
stamina, intelligence and endurance
the American trotting-bred horse is
the sure-enough animile.
The English thoroughbred has too
much nerves. He wears himself out.
The trotting horse is more deliberate,
and amenable to the rule of reason.
lie responds. Very seldom does he
lose his head, and he has q sense OF
gratitude and a desire to reciprocate
that is very beautiful.
No man who ever lived banked on
horses horse sense to quite the same
extent as did Pa Hamlin.
Pa was horse psychologist.
Incidentally. Pa discovered Ed Geers,
the silent man from Tennessee.
If Ed Geers were inclined to talk he
might say of Pa Hamlin, 1T was he
who hath made us, and not we our
selves"
we'll remember a day when the
late E. II. Hartman came up to East
Aurora and bought twelve horses of
Hamlin. insisting that Billy Andrews
should be thrown in as premium.
When Billy went away with the
horses we were all down at the sta
tion to help load the animals.
Andrews worked for Hartman for
three years. or until the iron horse
monopolized the magnate's attention.
When Hartman let Billy down and
out he did 1t on the back of a bonus
check for five thousand dollars.

DEATH FROM ACCIDENT
Special to The Telegraph

Columbia, Pa. Dec. 30.-As result

Carroll, employees of the American
Telegraph and Telephone Company,
was struck by passenger train,
McVey died few hours after the acct
dent in the Lancaster General Hos
pital and Eckert is in dying con-
ditlon at the same institution with a

Some Horse Sense

Ed Geers many a beautiful summer
morning. That's something to think
about-to see the sun rise in June.
when the birds are all tuning up anu
the dew on the pastures looks like
diamond dust.
Ed Geers is not a member of the
Gabbyjack Club. The only time
heard of his opening up his bazoo
good and loud was once when he was
driving Hal Pointer.
Hal was one of the most knowing
horses that ever looked through blind
ers The actual fact was he was bet
ter horse without the binders, and his
big money was won when he wore
neither binders nor check-rein.
Hal Pointer went through five grand
circuit seasons. and In one of them he
got piece of the purse every time he
started.
But Ed was not entirely satisfied.
He thought Hal Pointer was going to
hold the worlds record. And so one
day he checked him UP high and
drove him with binders. thinking to
steady him and knock off a couple of
seconds.
Hal did not like the change and
shook his head in protest. Then he
reared up just a little and hunched as
If he were going to let his heels fly
Ed Geers motioned to a colored man
to hand him whip.
And the colored man said. "Mistah
Geehs, 'scuse me, but-you bettah
done leave the whip wher' It ami"
And Geers gave him silent look,
which, being interpreted, meant. Mig
ger. who's driving this horse, you or
me?"
And the colored man reluctantly
handed up the whalebone.
And Colonel Geers, who is only
human at the last, in order to show
both the colored man and the horse
that he was boss of the track. just
wrapped that whip with resoundins
crack around good old Hal Pointer.
The horse was surprise and grieved.
For an instant he just stood and
trembled. Then he went up in the
air and made a dash for the high
board fence. He would have gone in
to it head on If Ed had not pulled
tremendously hard on the lee line.
AS 1t was, the hub of the high sulky
hit the fence and snatched out four
piclIets.
BY this time Hal Pointer had busted
the objectional check rein and was
bounding like a jackrabbit along the
track
Ed Geers had dropped the whip, and
his dignity. Also, he had tucked the
tail OF his silence into his ego. At
every bound of the horse Ed yelled,
whoa, dam yeh!" Whoa, dam yeh!"
And a colored brother who was new
on the job. having just been hired as
n horse chambermaid, asked, "Who
am dat gemmen wifi de powahful bel
lows?"
And his conferee replied, why, dat
am Mistah Geehs, de Silent Man."
