The one decided upon as most feasible is to have a bucket brigade of twenty men carry the-water from the river. They will start Monday morning. One suggestion was to heat the the ater so fiercely over Sunday that the snow on the roof would melt and run down the spout, then it could be steer ed Into the tank. But enough steam to do that would cost more than the act.

A commission to investigate the desrabll ity of a government armor plant with a view to action at the next session of Congress, is being considered by the House naval committee. A board of naval officers would investigate the plants and prices of private manu facturers and report with recom mendations. melt It in the tank, but the manage ment was afraid it would be arrested for appropriating State property. The idea of taking the girls over to the river where the water awaits them didn't look good, for at the rate of SSO a girl, which tho last girl diver in the river paid, runs up too high for a half dozen to try it at the same time, and twelve times a week. One of the breweries offered to fill the tank with beer just for the ad, but the management was afraid the town might go dry before Monday and make this Impossible. So it was decided to start a bucket brigade working on Monday morning. Manager Hopkins has figured that it will take twenty men, each carrying five gallons at a time, just 100 trips each to tho river, and this is a cinch. So that's the way it will be done.— Advertisement. JIM FIRE IT .

Tagging Furniture. —All of the fur niture In the State Capitol is to l>e numbered and r.-arked with a metal tag. This plan liau just been approved by the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings and it is probable that be fore the summer begins that every one of the hundreds of chairs, the numer ous tables and desks will have Father Penn'u Insignia stamped thereon. A book will be kept in which the location of an article of furniture can be told at a glance. The furniture is now marked by muslin tags pasted on the bottom.

Philadelphia has just arranged for sealers and the consignments have swamped the department.
