WONDERS

AMERICAN CAMPANILE
BY T. T. MAXEY
9, Western Newspaper Union.

AMERICAN CAMPANILE
THE records of past ages are
l. authority for the fact that cam
panileS or bell towers became very
Rome between the eighth and elev.
enth centuries. Almost everybody has
at some time seen q picture of that
famous old one Of old st. Mark 5
Church in Venice
On the other hand, campaniIes are
rarely seen in the United States now
a-dayS and yet California boasts what
is perhaps the most splendid example
of Il bell tower OH the western homiS-
phere.
1t is one of the m0St-pleaSing and
graceful architectural structures one
can hope to look upon and is located il
the grounds Of the University of Cal
ifornia, al Berkeley. The gift of Il Mrs.
Safer, it cost about 100000, is 3d.
feet high. approximately Sc feet square
and is constructed Of California gran
ite, with the exception of the pyramid
ally-shaped top-piece which is of white
marble.
Within the tower is an immense
clock and a chime Of twelve beautiful.
iy-toned bells. These precious bells
were safely transported through the
submarine-infested waters of the At
lantic. on their journey from the old
world, during the earlier days of the
world war.
These bells, also the gift of Mrs
Safer range in weight from $40 to
4,11S pounds. The tenor or largest
bell carries the following inscription,
written especially for the purpose by
Professor Flagg of the university:
We ring, we chime, we toll;
Lend We the silent part
Some answer in the heart,
Some echo in the SOUL

FINDS HOUSE DEMOLISHED
Trenton Woman's Agent Amazed at
Discovering Building Torn Down.


Trenton. Aug. 2-When G. II. Allen.
business representative of Mrs Mary
r. Watson, owner of a property at
IS West Hanover street, wanted as
part of the site for the erection of a
new state office building, returned to
Trenton after an absence of several
days he was startled to find that the
house, a three-story brick structure,
had been completely demolished.
Although negotiations for the pur-
chase of the building by the state have
been pending for some time, the deal
had not been contaminated, and no
contract had been signed. Through
some misunderstanding, State Archi-
tect Allan Mills issued Instructions
several days ago that the building be
RACED and his orders were followed
with expedition.

INIPERTINENT

There was an amazing ending OF
a civil case tried in Wyoming
Court. 1t was an appeal case and
on one side was a testy lawyer and
the other a number of inexperienced
attorneys. The arguments on both
sides had been heard and the case
closed for judgment.
Suddenly one of the inexperienced
lawyers got up and addressed the
court once more. The testy lawyer
stood in for a moment, but losing
patience, he also rose and addressed
the court in this wise:
Your honor, would beg with all
respect to point out to the court that
my learned friend opposite is entire
ly out of order in addressing the
court, and if l may be permitted to
say so, the court has no right to be
listening to him."

Building Active In
Cheyenne Wells

A little strole around our pro-
eressive little city the first Of
the week revealed very much
activity in the building lines,
both in business houses and resi-
dences.
The first we come to is the new
garage building Of the Harris
Motor company. joining US on
the west This building is q brick
structure, seventy.tive feet by
one hundred and ninety and when
|completed will be one OF the
finest buildings Of its kind b..
tween Denver and Kansas City.
Around the corner on Railroad
avenue, we found the new eleva-
tor of the Weir Grain company,
of Denver, progressing nicely.
This building now stands about
forty feet high and still going
up. Contractor Borton. informs
us that he would not be a bit
surprised if this company did not
erect another elevator by its side
as soon as this one is finished.
Moral: This is the coming wheat
country of this state and these
grain dealers are wise to the fact
Our next move was to the new
up to date hotel building now b..
ing erected by Harry I.ming.
Here we found the carpenters
completing the rough work IN

presume will be stucco finish a.

 The citation issued by the commission Thursday is under the new public utili- ties act of 1919, which gives the com mission authority and funds for the new work It has not been done in the past, because the authority of the commits sion was uncertain and the funds kept the activities within circumscriped circle All members of the new commits sion, including President A. G. Patter- son and his associate commissioners, $. F. Gaillard and B. Ii. Cooper, have de- termned to exercise the closest super vision over public utilities and to make the proper investigations of all com plaints which may be received by the commission.
 in the Mobile gas case, Morris Knowles, Inc proposed standards and suggested that they be adopted by the commission with rules and regulations which the company would be required to make CT fective. This report stated that com plaints of the past should be eliminated with the use of the new rules and stand ards While the standards and rules may demand amendments when made e1Iec- tive for other cities, it is thought they will apply generally when changed U meet local conditions
