Fine Sleeping Poreh.s.

Claude Maley is building the
handsomest set of solariums and
sleeping porches that have yet
been put up here, onto his home
at second and Adams. The
solorlum is 20 feet square and
will be built of stone, with tile
lloors, ornamental Italian COL
umns, etc. The room will have
glazed easements for use in win
ter, and screens for summer use.
The room will be heated in win
ter and filled with plants for use
rs a conservatory. The sleeping
porch above will be equipped
with novel lighting features and
every other convenience for a
sleeping porch. This new ad-
ditlon is to be built at the side
of the house, and the old front
front porch will come down to
be replaced with a new portico
in harmony with the rest of the
addition.
The work is in charge of Ar.
chitect Gilbert.
The above from one of our
exchanges show to what extent
sleeping porches are coming into
general use as a necessary part
of the house.

Line Of Steel Bnrges To Be
Operated On Ohio River.

Owensboro, Ky, Get II. "A
line of steel barges for the trans
portation Of freight to he oper-
ated by powerful gasoline and
electrical machinery, and p,ying
up and down the OHIO ana Miss
issippi rivers on regular SEIZED
ule which will be possible under
a system Of wireless telegraph
dispatching, is a brief sImmary
of plans announced in Louisville
by Roscoe Kent, head OF the
operating department Of the In
land Navigation Company, OF
New York, a five milton corpora
ton. Mr.. Kent is in Louisville
with the launching Of one of the
company's big boats at the How
ard shipyard in JeifersonyIlle this
month.
The Inland Navigation Com
pany, according to Mr.. Kent,
proposes to build thirJy-iive
boats similar to the one now
being finished at Towards.
Each of these boats will be go
feet in length and forty-three
feet beam. Each will be capable
of making fifteen miles an hour
up stream and twenty-five down
stream. The speed of the boats
will be a great guarantee, Mr..
Kent said, of fast service.
Each of the vessels, Mr.. Kent
said will draw not. more than
four and a half feet of water,
which means that they will be in
all the yearround, high
and low tides.
The boat now being built at
the Jeffersonville shipyards had
her keel laid last May, and will
be ready for launching on or
about October 2S. This vessel
Mr.. Kent said, will be more or
less an experiment, as the COM
pany desires to try the gasoline
and electrical machinery and
other appliances before contracts
are let for more barges. The
purpose of operating the barges
with this kind of machinery is
to reduce to a minimum the
danger of fire on board and pos
sible damage to consignments Of
freight.

The experience Of Motherhoodisa try.

tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one

There is nothing more charming than

and indeed childbirth under the right

that, with all the evidence Of shattered

will persist in going blindly to the trial.

'In just the same way" he ex plained, that I am sending her this message at the present moment-a message which she will receive and understand wherever she is hidden Would you like to know what I am telling her."
 The man shivered. His eyes, as though fascinated, watched the little instrument.
 T am saying this, Craig" Quest continued. Craig is here and in my power. He is sitting within a few feet of me and will not leave this room until he has told me your where abouts. Keep up your courage, Le- nora. You shall be free in an hour. :"
 The trapped man looked away from the instrument into Quests face. There was a momentary flicker of something that might have passed for courage in his tone.
 MT. Quest" he said, you are a wonderful man, but there are limits to your power. You can tear my tongue out from my mouth, but you cannot force me to speak"
 Quest leaned little farther for ward in his chair, his gaze became more concentrated.
 That is where you are wrong, Craig. That is where you make mis- take. In a very few minutes you will be telling me all the secrets of your heart"
 Craig shivered, drew back a little in his chair, tried to rise and fell back again helpless.
 My Godt' he cried Leave me alonei"
 When you have told me tue truth" Quest answered swiftly, "and you will tell me all l want to know in few minutes. Your eyelids are get ting a little heavy, Craig. Don't re- sist. Something which is like sleep is coming over you. You see my will has yours by the throat"
 Craig shook his head. A very weak smile of triumph f1ickered for a mo- ment at the corners of his lips.
 Your torture chamber trick won't work on mel" he exclaimed. You can never-'
 The whole gamut of emotions seemed already to have spent them selves in the mans face, but at that there was a new element, an element of terrified curiosity in the expression of his eyes as he stared towards the door.
 'fIs this another trick of yours?" he muttered
 Quest, too, turned his head and sprang instantly to his feet From un- derneath the door came a little puff of smoke. There was a queer sense of heat of which both men were si- simultaneously conscious. Down in the street arose a chorus of warn- ing shouts, increasing momentarily in

volume. Quest threw open the door and closed it again at once.
 "The place Is on fire." he announced briefly. Pull yourself together, man. We shall have all We can do to get out of this.''
 Craig turned to the door, but stag gered back almost immediately.
 The stairs are going!" he shrieked. Tt is the kitchen that is on fire. We are cut of. We cannot get down!"
 Quest was on his hands and knees, fumbling under his trucklebed. He pulled out crude form of fire es- cape, a rough sort of cradle with a rope attached.
 Know how to use this?" he asked Craig quickly. Here, catch hold. Put your arms inside this strap"
 Yard by yard, swinging a little in the air, Craig made his descent. When he arrived in the street there were a

hundred willing hands to release him. Quest drew up the rope quickly, warned by a roar of anxious voices Then he commenced to descend, let ting himself down hand over hand, all ways with one eye upon that length of rope that swung below. Suddenly, as he reached the second floor a lit tie cry from the crowd warned him of what had happened. Tongues of flame curling out from the blazing building had caught the rope, which was being burned through not a dozen feet away from him. He descended little farther and paused in mid air.
 A shout from the crowd reached him.
 The cables! Try the cables!"
 He glanced round. Seven or eight feet away, and almost level with him, was a double row of telegraph wires. him burned through and fell to the ground. He swung a little towards the side of the house, pushed himself vigorously away from it with his feet, and at the farthest point of the out ward swing jumped. His hands grap- pied the telegraph wires safely Even in that tense moment he heard little sob of relief from the people below
 Hand over hand he made his way to the nearest pole and slipped easily to the ground. The crowd immediate ly surged around him
 Where is the man who came down before me?" he asked a bystander.
 Talking to the police in the car over yonder," was the hoarse reply. Say, guv'nor, you only just made that"
 Craig pushed his way through the crowd to where Craig was speaking eagerly to French. He stopped short and stopped down. He was near enough to hear the formers words.
 "Mr. French, you saw the man come bles? That was Quest, Sanford Quest the man who escaped from the Tombs prison. He can't have got away yet"
 Quest drew off his coat, turned it in side out and replaced it swiftly. He coolly picked up a hat someone had lost in the crowd and pulled it over his eyes. He passed within a few feet Of where Craig and the inspector were talking.
 Say, boys, Sanford Quest is in the | crowd somewhere. He's the man who | jumped on the cable lines. A hun dred dollars for his arrest."
 Quest turned reluctantly away. Men | were rushing about in all directions | for him.

The professor swung round in his chair and greeted Quest with some surprise, but also little disappoint- ment.
 No news of Craig?" he asked
 T got Craig, all right" he replied He came to the Servants club, whexs was waiting for him. My luck kb~oSsssS os.s, though. The place was burned to the ground last night. I saved his life and then the brute gave me away to the police. I had to make my es- cape as best I could"
 The professor tapped the table pee. vishly.
 This is insufferable," he declared. '1 have had no shaving water; my coffee was undrinkable; I can find nothing. 1 have a most important lec- ture to prepare and I cannot find any of the notes 1 made upon the sub ject."
 Quest smoked in silence for a mo- ment.
 Any mail for me, professor" he asked abruptly.
 The professor opened drawer and handed him telegram.
 "Only this!"
 Quest opened it and read it through It was from the sheriff of small town in Connecticut:
 The men you inquired for are both here. They have, sold an automobile and seem to be spending the proceeds. Shall I arrest?"
 Quest studied the message for a moment.
 Say, this is rather interesting, pro- lessor" he remarked. .tThese are the two thugs who set upon me at the section house. They killed the signal man, who could have been my alibi, and swiped my car, in which, as it cannot be found, French supposes that 1 returned to New York. With their arrest the case against me collapses. I tell you frankly, pro- lessor" Quest continued drowning. T hate to leave the city without having found that girl; but I am not sure that the quickest way to set things right would not be to go down, arrest these men and bring them back here, clear myself, and then go tooth and nail for Craig"
 T agree with you most heartily" the professor declared. T recommend any course which will insure the re. turn of my man Craig!" T cannot promise you that you will ever have Craig here again." Quest observed grimly. T rather fancy Sing Sing will be his next home" 1
 Quest stepped of the cars at Bethel a little before noon that morning. The sheriff met him at the depot and greet ed him cordially but with obvious sur prise.
