continuously from that tlme te tills. Se
long an intlmite association you may well

and from his character a deep esteem.
When theie ties are sundered by death
there is deep regret.
" He was the only surviving member of
these who nude up the beard w hen I be be bo

Levergood, but the doctor has net lieen a

disappeared from the roll. These are a
few recollections that come te my mind to
night by the death of Rebert A. Evnns.
"It is net necessary te speak of his life and
character. He was tee well known te the

and his integrity of the highest order. In
him was reposed many trusts, nnd he
never betrayed any." He moved that n

politics virtually closed en Friday night.
The last mcetlugs were held Friday
evening nnd te-day the Democratic
primaries will be held te dedde who
shall be the imrtv'H nomtnee for prosldent

bent, who Is new In his ,0th year, has
been opposed by three ether candidates,
Jeffersen Snvder, II. Willis Bland and G.
A. Erdllcb, all attorneys at the Bnrks bar.
At the hcadqunrters of all the candidates
the utmost confldcnce was displayed, and
nil of them set up claims that their slde
would win. In the convention the oppo
sition te J ml go Hngnman will combine
their votes en the cnndldate who
shows the most strength at the pri
maries. A conservative estimate places
the combined opposition te Judge Ilngen
man nt nbeut equal te his own strength. It
lsbellecd, thoreferc, that the convention
nlone can declde ns te who will be the nomi
nee, w 1th Judge Hagcnman having n slight
niH antnu-e. and. if net able te secure his nw n
nomination, that he will be able te dictate

DESCENDING THItOUOU FLAMES.
Thrilling Escape of Twe Turk Frem a
Burning New Yerk Building.
There was an exciting scent at a fire en
Friday morning In the flvesterr brick
building, 113 Elm street, New Yerk. Twe
men had a narrow oseapo from death, and
It seemed almost miraculous that they
emerged safely through sheets of flame
which enveloped them en the flre escape.
About 7 o'clock Themas Bcrnhart, who
occupies a paint and oil shop en the ground
fleer, was opening the deer when a boy
ran up aud Mid the building was en flre.
Leeking up he saw a sheet of ilame burst
Ing from the upper windows. He hasten
ed te the nearest alarm box and rang for
firemen. By the tlme the firemen had get
te work the w hele upper portion w ns blaz
ing fiorcely.
A great crowd seen gathered nnd a cry
went up that there were men In the upper
story, which Is occupied by J. Isklyan A
Ce., carpet manufacturers. A nuiuber or
Turks who work for the firm sleep en the
K remises. They wcre awakened by the
re. One dashed for the window and slid
with marvelous sglltty down the Ilre ev
cape. Twe mere came te the w ludew and
their duskv faces turned an ashy gray as
they saw the flames about them.
" Come down." cried the fircmeu. But
net understanding, and evidently para
lyzed with fear, they steed there. The
ilremeu cried ent again and a couple start
ed up te get the Turks. This seemed te
putlire In them, and they cauie down In
their stocking feet nnd shirts through the
flame. Determinedly they passed te the
fleer below, where they wero lest te sight
by sheets of flame that seemed te encircle
them. A puff of wind blew the flre aside,
and they were descried still descending
with their faces held clese te the ladder.
Anether gust of smoke nnd flre curled
about them ns they reached the uext Innd
lng below, while the crowd cheered lustily
mid shouted for them net te waver. Inte
the midst of seeming flames they again
plunged In thelr doscenl until finally they
get .below the danger point. The crowd
cheered and the Turks walked meekly
across the street and watched the smeke
and flre roll out of the window.
After some Bharp work the flames wcre
subdued, but net before the upper portion
of the building was completely gutted.
It Is thought that perhaps the Turks en
joyed a qulet smeke before going te boil,
and that the spark from ene of their plpes
cntight In the rag waste and smeuldered
until morning. The insurance en the
building Is unknown, The losses en stock
and building will net exceud ?W,000.

There lived In a flue large slimy beg a
thrifty colony of frogs,who wer. qulte eon oen een
tented with themselves and all Iho world,
and ready te welcome any travolers w he
passed that way and had the geed sense te
declare that Bogtew n was ene of the best of
places and the frogs of the place Intelligent,
liberal nnd altogether charming. New
this frog paradise had some defects that
even Its Inhabitants could net fall te see,
and among thorn was the lack or a geed
stout Jumping pole te serve In rescuing
Imperilled cltlens In times or Heed,
for It had happened mere than once In the
rainy season that the neighboring brook
had suddenly overflowed Its banks, and
frogs who were net nlert mid ready
te mom quickly were In great dan
ger or belng surrounded en their hil
locks In the beg by swiftly rushing
water. Indeed several or the community
had lest their lives through this sudden
rising or the water, having been sur
rounded In their own homes by the rushing
flood, and finally washed away Inte the
deep water and carried fsr nut Inte the
great rivet, while their friends listened te
their heart-rendlngciles and were power
less te render any assistance. It had been
suggested that Bogtew n should have a
Jumping pole of the kind In use In ether
frog settloments. These poles were carried
te a point further up the stream and, with
duojudgment and discretion, Bet afloat se
that they might be borne by the current te
fae hillock of the Imperiled frog. With the
aid of an olghteen Inch pole It was usually
very easy for an able bodled frog te leap
from ene high point te another and se
escape a fearful death. New n pole
or this kind had te be very strepg
nnd straight and It would be uocessary
te employ a carpenter bee te cut ene, ns
frogs cannot work In limber. The grsad
Jury had rocemmonded an appropriation
for the purpose, but as there seemed te be
no vetes te be controlled bysuch an Invest
ment nene of the public, officials seemed te
feel disposed te agitate the mutter. At
length, after long walling, the drowning
of seme frogs aud the narrow and painful
escape of many others,tho Bogtewn In iti,-
MetNCtrt called upon the Inhabitant te con
tribute for the Jumping pole and as thore
were many frogs enlyn llttle w as asked from
each contributor. New vvhlle this matter
was before the publle ene fine midsummer
night, a large and prosperous frog sat
creaking ever It en the top of his hillock.
"It Is a matter for councils," he was heard
te say, ami another answered, "hut they
have done nothing;" whereat the first re
plied, "Their duty is net mine. It Is a grent
shame I It Is nil wrong! They should
buy It 1 I pay taxes I I won't help buy It I"
Aud the iudlguaut frog went en In this way,
vyhlls ethers agreed te all that he said, ex
cepting that they quietly contributed their
little dimes nud quarters for the pole. And
se the pole was bought and a salaried com cem com
mltteo wns appointed te take care of II, und
one, night this commlttee went fishing; but
they lofl'tbe pole at home, se that when the
flood suddeuly came there was no difficulty
In rescuing the cltlzens.The volunteers who
were managing the pole wero much pleased
te hear the frog who bad creaked se loud
about It, and failed te contribute, new ap
pealing frantically for aid; for the water
was deep nnd swift all mound him and he
was tee big aud fat te Jump far without n
pole. He sheuted: ' Send me the pole. I
want It quick I" And the frogs gathered
upon the shore and creaked Jeynilly In Im
itation of the Indignant frog : " The com
mittee should de It.'. Their duty" Is net
ours. It should be dene. It Is a ahame.
We pay them for It. We weut drop
you the pole I " A sudden rush of
water swept ever the home of the
indignant frog, and he tried te Jump, but
fell with a smothered shriek into the fearful
flood, and was hurried far away towards
the river. And, as his cries grew fainter
and fainter, a silence fell uteu the crowd,
and w lieu the voice of the Indignant frog
was heard nolengor the multitude united
In declaring lu ene glgnullc, thundering

takes It should send the ball bend te the
alderman before whom the case Is te be
heard and send a release te the station

the case would knew what was going en In
