ART Of MAKING
SPIRAL STAIRS
NOW OBSOLETE
Aged Builder Loses Avecation As
Fashions Change; Called for
Specialists In Former Days.

Springfield, ILL.,, July 14.-(By
the Associated Press)-Footfall of
the present generation, as they
mount aloft on steps Of pine and
and ash, mill turned and square
sawed, fall strangely on. the ears
of W. X. Huston, one of the last
representatives of craft of artis-
tic stair builders, whose art and
trade have gone with the changing
fashions.
For Mr.. Huston, in his day, was
a builder of circular stairways,
which a half century ago and less
were the very height of style in am
bilious architecture. He built them
of black walnut and mahogany and
he says there is great difference
between the footsteps on a walnut
stair and the footsteps on a pine
stair. Although almost blind his
ear will tell whether the approach
ing foot walks on the hard. solid
timbers that were common when
he piled his craft, or on the lighter,
less durable woods now used.
The circular stairway was a
grand affair in his day. Old man
sions, old churches, old public
buildings attest to its magnificence,
its durability and its awkward
ness. 1t came into style in the Sos,
and from then until 80 years ago
was considered the height Of fash
ion in the best Of buildings.
In those days a man who built
a house or building, employed one
contractor to 90 the general work
and another, specialist, to build
his stairway.
For the circular stairway was a
product Of both art and skilled me-
chanics, requiring special wood,
special tools and special training.
Fine Workman.
Mr.. Huston, who was born almost
SO years ago ona farm near Green's
burg, Pa, has built circular stair
ways in homes and buildings in
central Illinois that were some. of
the finest in their day. Many of
these old places are still standing.
and occasionally, even today, in his
walks about the city, the old stair
builder will see the object Of his
handiwork in the wreckage Of an
ancient mansion Of decrepit build
ing being torn down to make room
for modern improvements.
He built the stairway still stand
ing in the main hall, the original
building OF the University OF Illi-
note. The stairway in the original
building at Blackburn college, Car
linville, is his work. The home of
the late United States Senator Shell
by M. Cullom In Springfield Is dig
cified into stateliness by q circu-
lar stairway built by Mr.. Huston
many years ago. The main stair
way in the Illinois asylum for the
blind In Jacksonville Is the work OF
this stair builder. In ST. Johns
hospital here. in IS. Peter and
Paul's and the Immaculate Con-
ception. Catholic churches, in sew
eral schools here and in many
homes in Springfield, Jacksonville,
Taylorville, Williamsvflle and 9TH
er towns in Central Illinois are
stairvays on the circular plan
built by Mr.. Huston.
He lived for q time at Grixxs-
Vile, Pike county. shortly aftes
coming to Illinois from Pennsyl-
vania- Later he vent to Jackson.

Organized labor is resisting this

impossible for the girls to get, along
on the SIC minimum; and if this is
reduced I do not know what will
happen"
Last year, when the state set the
minimum at SIG, every need Of
working women wars heralded to the

the year, $16o.92 is allowed. This
is 1915 a week. Other items in the
