Of Louisville at New Orleans, which was

piled to tie south. After describing the
prosperity of the old Citizens bank,

In which the institution stood its ground
throughout the vicissitudes Of the civil
war. it says:
THE Citizens Bank was so closely
identified with the south that it gave It
the name Dixie land,' since preserved in
the famous southern war song, Dixie.
It came about in this way: Prior to the
civil war in the states the Citizens Bank
had the power to issue paper money
notes just as the Bank of England does
today. These bills were issued in de-
nominations OF $40 and $40, preferably
$40. to the extent of few millions. They
were well known and good all over the
country.
These $40 bills were engraved In
French. and on the backs was the French
word Dix very prominent, and the ignor-
ant Americans living along the upper
Mississippi river. not knowing how to
pronounce the French word. called the
bills 'Dixies' Finally the banks money

START STEEL FRAME
FOR HUGE SKYSCRAPER
Million Rivets to Be Used in the
New Equitable Building,
New York.

With the coming of the New Year the
second step in the erection of New York S
newest city within the city" was taken
With suitable ceremony, the first of the
million or more rivets which will bind
together the 5000 tons Of steel forming
the frame work of the new Equitable
building was driven home. and for more
than half a year an army Of 1000 highly
skilled workmen, under the direction Of
expert captains, will be engaged in push
ing the giant web of steel steadily up
ward until it towers nearly $50 feet in
the air. The giant frame will be clothed
with its outer garments of granite, brick
and terra Gotta, and the new city will
soon be ready for its 5000 or more citi-
zens, all workers.
The great Golfer dam, extending eighty
five feet below the curb line, to the solid

below the curb line there will be another
fifty feet to be devoted to the purposes

Light Curtains for Cars.
.ctric Railway Journal.

From the Electric Railway Journal
Ono Of the changes which have been
made a part Of the finish of the modern
car is the use Of whitish enamels Of COM
positions in place Of dark light-absorbing
veneers and finishes.
When such interiors are used in a car
with large number of bare tungsten
lamps, the effect is often somewhat
dazzling because so many bright spots
strike the eye but where semi-direct and
indirect lighting fixtures are used these
light interiors are not only very efficient
but most agreeable. as they permit the
illumination to be well diffused. Since
this is the case, experiments should be
made with curtains which have been
manufactured with light color on the
inner side.
1t is possible that in the daytime the
reflections from sunlight on lowered cur
tains might prove disagreeable, but this
is problematical. It may also be urged
that a light-colored curtain would be-
come soiled too easily. However this
possibility could readily be avoided if a
darker strip Of material was used along
the lower part OF the curtain.

Approach of the Unknown.

from the Atlantic.
To me, all knocking at closed door is
fraught with the tragic, an imperative
summons to open to the unknown; to sus-
pend. for the time. the present action or
conversation to make way for that which
may not be denied. l have observed,
with myself particularly. when in a room
alone, that a sudden knocking at the
door, coming without previous warning
as to who might wish admittance, sus-
pends as if in midair. the thought or act
upon which am engaged. A feeling of
vague apprehension possesses me. mo-
meutary wonderment at the sudden and
unexpected interruption Of thought. And
! have observed. too, when in a room
with others, that at a knocking at the
door all will turn toward it, suspending
action, leaving the speech uncompleted,
with strained expression in their eyes,
as if fearing something disastrous; while
the shadow of silence will fall upon us
until the door is opened, and the cause of
the unknown summons discovered.
Though the shadow of silence, in such an
instance. is of such short duration, and
may fall so lightly upon some that it
may be unperceived, to me it is none the
less real.

Texture Now Considered.

The word texture" lately has come into
use in Connection with brickwork, and.
strange to say. this word has a plausible
application, for the builder of interesting
brickwork has much in common with the
weaver at the loom as far as resulting
color effect goes.
Just as the weaver, with his threads
of varying sizes and colors, produces a
never-ending variety of useful and beau
tiful fabrics. so it is possible for the
brick builder. with his bricks and joints
of many colors and sizes, to weave new
ideas and combinations in his work. all
in beautiful and imperishable patterns:
and this applies to all brick.
Just as the fabric charms and delights
the eye, and at the same time protects
men from heat and cold. and performs a
thousand other useful functions. SO thu
beautiful way of brick, exemplifying
mans ingenuity and artistic skill. forms
also the protective structure of the build

gree the requirements of an ideal archi-
tectural material.
