It would be more profitable, says nil ex

county as is being done by the army of wit

The largest fire engine in the world Is
being constructed for the Boston Are depart
ment. It will be self propellinu, and will
have a capacity of 1,890 gallons of water per
minute. '1 he next largest engine in use in
Boston requires threo horaca to draw it, and
has a capacity of lint 1,100 gallons each
sixty seconds. The new enjliie is designed
for use in the business section of the city to
protect the high building constructed during
recent years
It is a fact easily demonstrated that people
road ndvert'sements now more than they did
twenty years ago; and there are good reasons
why It must lie so--the advertisements' are
better prepared anil Iwtter woith the reading,
and It is more necessary as a matter of
economy that they slionld be read. Many a

Consul Qkrmaik writes theStule Depart
ment, from Zuiicli, in regard to a plan re
cently introduced iu tlio public schools of
several European cities. In llrussels, tho
childrcu attending public schools were re
quested by their touchers to gather up, ou
thoir way to and from tho school, all such
apparently valueless objects as old metallic
bottle capsules, tin foil, tin cans, paint tubes,
refuse metals, etc., and dclivor their col
lections daily to their respectivo teacliors.
Iu the period from Juutiary 1 to October 1,
1S95, or within eight mouths, tho following
amounts were collected : Tin foil, 1,025
pounds ; old paint tubs, 220 pounds ; bottlo
capsules, 4,415 pounds; scraps of metal, 1,221
pounds ; total, 7,781 pounds. This apparent
rubbish was disposed of aud the proceeds
applied so as to completely clotho SOO poor
children aud send pfl-i?fc-ones to recupera

THE EIGHT MAN.
The borough officials, and especially the
members of the water committee, are con
gratulating themselves upon tho fact that the
newly-elected water superintendent, T. 11.
Ktout, is demonstrating to the people that he
is "the right mau iu the right place." Mr.
Ktout is uot only fast acquiring a thorough
knowledge of the details of the plant, but is
inaugurating a number of improvements ift
tho management of the water works. He
is systematizing tho work connected there
with, aud this ulouo will result in groat
saving in the operating expense accouut at
the end of tlio year. This is a feature that
has bceu wautinx iu the management of the
plant since it was erected.
The people of Shenandoah have oue of tiic
bet water supplies and tho most valuable
plant iu tho interior of the statu, unci it will
be a source of much gratification to them to
know that its mauageiiiuut is in good lutuds.
Mr. Stout, being oue of tlio promoters of the
project, and a large property owner, takes a
natural piicle in an economical and successful
administration of the water department. It
seems to be his one desire to retiro from
ollice with a record that will reflect credit
upon lii muuigenient and those reeponsiblt
for his appointment. The taxpayers ol
Shenandoah can, theiefaie, test assured that
the water plant is In good hands, and will be
managed upon business principles. Instead ol
iu a ship-shod manner.
The members of the water committee,
comprising Messrs. Oable, Ilochm, McGuiro,
Hand and James, are all practical men with
it thorough knowledge of the putut, and will
secoud every effort ou the jwrt of the
superintendent iu inaugurating any reform
that may be deemed necessary.
With his introduction into oflice Mr. Stout
immediately set Ui work ranking needed re
pairs to the pipe line. The inaiu at the
corner of Line Slid Catherine stieets, which
was pulled spurt two or three mouths ago by
the euviug in of tbe mlue workiugs, aud
allowed to remain in that condition, ww im
mediately repaired, aud the people of that
immediate ueigkborbooi are now receiving
their uual supply of water, and are profuse
iu their praises of t'.io new uperlutdiicleut
The main iu the vicinity of the Columbia
Park has been gradually siukiug for tie
past month or two, aud a watchman
was plated there during the night. This Mr.
Stout immediately repaired ami dispensed
with the services of the watchman, thus cut
ting oil' a needless expeuse. Ou Sunday
day on which tbe business houses are closed
aud leas water is used the broken valve at
the gatebouse of the distributing reservoir
was taken oat and the now oue placed iu
position without accident and in an exceed
ingly short time, considering the character of
the work iu hand In this work tbe Super
intendent had the valuable assistance and
the benefit of lli' knowledge of loiinollmau
A. 1). GSablo.obairnian of the watr committee,
who remained upon the scene of operations
until the work was finished. Not oaly is tin
superintendent making improvement iu the
mti.luuii.il department of the plunt, but is
giving the office work attention ns well, with
especial reference to the collection of water
rente.
With snch a good lieginning, it is reason
able to suppose that Mr. Stout will prove a
valuable lnu in bis present position. Of
course, there will be those who will criticise his
actions, from ulterior motives, and he will be
wise In Ignoring all such, and faithfully ami
fearlessly discharge the duties of his oiflce as
his best judgment dictates.

Offensive
Catarrh Is seemingly otto of the
most complicated of ailments, and
one which the doctors are absolutely
unable to cure. The- reasons for
this are easily explained. Catarrh Is
a blood disease, and only a blood
remedy can effect it. The various
sprays, douches and. washes which
are employed as a local treatment,
may, for a time, alleviate the
trouble, but no one ever knew of
such treatment producing- a cure.
They can not reach the seat of the dis
ease, as the experience of many
sufferers will prove! nothing1 can do
so except a real blood remedy.
In the treatment of Catarrh, S. S.
8. has demonstrated the fact that It
reaches deep-seated diseases, which
other remedies can not touch.
Mr. Chas. A. Parr, the leading wall
paper dealer, of Athens, Ga., writes :
"For months I suffered from a severe
case of catarrh. The many offensive
Mr. Ciias. A. Park.
symptoms were accompanied by
severe pains in the head. I took sev
eral kinds of medicines recommended
for catarrh, and used various local ap
plications, but the disease had become
so deep-seated that they had no effect
whatever. I was alarmed at my con
dition, as I knew this disease Invari
ably descended to the lungs, ending
in consumption. I was induced to take
8. S. S, (Swift's Specific), and after two
months I was perfectly well, and
have never felt any effects of Ui
disease since."
S. S. S. is the only blood remedy
which it is impossible to Imitate. There
is a. substitute for most of them, for
they are all alike contain the same
ingredients, and are made in the same
manner. But there is no substitute
for S. S. S., as it is in every way dif
ferent from every other blood remedy
offered to the public. It is nature's own
remedy, being made from roots and
herbs gathered from the forests, and
contains not a particle of mercury,
potash or other drug. It is not a drug
store remedy, and not a single ingredi
ent can be obtained from a chemist's
shop. S. S. S. (Swift's Specific) is the
only blootl remedy which is guaran
teed to be
Purely Vegetable
All others are founded on mercury and
potash.
Deep-seated and obstinate blood
troubles, such as Cancer, Scrofula,
Catarrh, Rheumatism, Eczema, Con
tagions Blood Poison, etc., which oth
er remedies do not reach, yield readily
to the curative powers of S. S. S.

HIS ONES SOFT SPOT.
THE CONSTRUCTION B0S8WAS HARD,
BUT Ht LOVED CHILDREN.
The Story of How lie Found I.lttte Jlminy
and Answered the Starving Hoy's Cry l'or
Milk Hut tbe Hough Fellow Wouldn't
Own to Ills Weakness.
Cnptaln Maliem wnp n hard man with a j
soft spot. That soft stmt was his' Mend- :
ship for little Jimmy Qrcgg mid dutetl
from tho winter when tlio ohild was lost
In the Nevada sagebrush.
Acooruing xo me oi view, ine osp- i
I n I ,, ,Dnl 1 1 m luu t- huh i-irt , lw. it-i j t .tfVitt '
ever Imxsed a mllrond construction camp.
Ask the lending aoutraotorx, and they
would tell you that he was mi Al man,
who could get more work out of his gang
Minn any forenmn on tho lino. Lenve it ta
the men who did the work, and you would
learn that ho was tho meanest and most
abusive old luiitler who ever gave n nmn
bin tlmo for laying down his shovel to
light n pipe. There wcro ugly stories told
about hi practice of eye gouging fn n
fight, and his reputation was sufficient to
keep bin cnnip the quietest of them nil.
In December the cump contained nbout
40 men nnd teams, one wonmn and two
children. Tho inventory is not complete
without Including one old rnwbonetl horse,
a sort of enmp follower, who subsisted on
the leavings of tho work mules. He was
owned by Gregg, the boarding master, who,
with ills wife, ministered beef, bsoon,
benns, potatoes, broad nnd coffee thrloe n
dsy to the 40 hungry men.
At this tltno camp vAs ten miles from
wnter, upon n dry plain enrrylng no vege
tation but sparse sagebrush and grease
wood. Water was hauled in tank wagons,
and the old horse, not getting all ho Hood
ed In oamp, hnd learned to follow tho
teams to tho spring.
Ono morning, nfter tho gnng hnd brenk
fnsted and gone to work on the grndo nnd
tho tnnk wagons could he dimly scon
through their own dust on the rond to tho
spring, Gregg's little 8-yenr-old son onmo
out of the mess tont and crossed over to
the corral, where lie often played. The old
horse wns thore, nosing through tho man
ger, and the child presently climbed upon
its hnckns It stood rubbing against n wag
on. Tho horso paid no heed to his little
rldor, and soon ambled oft up tho rond aft
er the water wagons. Tho child hold on
tightly, nt first laughing, then crying, un
til ho hail been carried scvoral miles, when
ho fell off nnd wandered away from tho
road through tho brush.
Jimmy wus not missed until tho luon
enmo In from tho grndo for dinner. Then
there was a hurried and unavailing search
through' tho camp. After dinner Maliem
laid nit ton teams nnd sent tho drivers out
to mnko a general search. I3y mldaftcr
noon they returned and reported fniluro.
Meanwhile Mrs. Gregg, who said she was
perfcouly euro Jimmy would not leavo
camp, had been through o'.ery tent nnd
overhauled every bed roll, belloving that
somo man for a joko had hidden the boy.
Maliem now took the whole force of 40
men nnd joined In the quest. Under his
direction tlio camp was circled twice at a
distance of ono mile, nnd every yard of tho
way carefully cyiimincd for footprints.
None was found, and Mnhem said to his
men : "Now your work is cut out for you.
Before dark you'vo got to look under every
brush insidoof this line, and you're bound
to find him, for ho could not get outsido
without lnnKlug triicKs."
This search also was, of course, fruit
less. Somo men came to camp ut night
fall and others kept moving nbout tho plain
nt night, hoping to hear the child cry.
At tluyLrcnk tho captain was iu tho sad
dle mounted on liisfnvorito mulo. He still
believed the boy must be lnsido tho clrclo,
If that hail been properly nrulo. To clear
up that dtuibt ho meant to mnko the entire
round nlono and outsido of tho lino mado
by tho men. To roach tho starting point
ho rode out up the rond toward tho spring,
his pyeq pn tho ground, his mind an tho
problem of how Jimmy could get out of
camp nnd leavo no trail.
"By God, I'vo got HI" snld ho suddenly,
jabbing both spurs Into tho mulo, which
responded with n gallant attempt to pitoh
him Into a cactus bed. "That boy rodo
out on a wnter wagon. His mother Is off
wrong-In thinking he wasin thetontwhou
the wagons pulled out. lie must have
hung on to tho toll of tho last wngon and
lay low for fair tho driver would see him
and send him back. After awhile lie got
sleepy and fell off, nnd I shall find his
tracks somowhoro in this road. Damna
tion I Why oouldn't I think of that yoster
dayf" Tho cnptnln confidently urged his mulo
along as fast ns a scrupor mulo could bp
made to travel. And his confidence wns
Justified by soon, picking up tho boy's trull
at tho point whero ho. fell from tlio horse.
Abandoning now ills mulo, Muhem on
foot followed tlio torturous trail as rapidly
lis 1)0 pould locate it. At times tills was
nulok work i again, on hard ground, it was
a slow and diltloulf task. Toward noon ho
entirely lost it on a rooky hill and was do
laycd game hours, so tlmt it was near night
when he at Ust fountl tlio hoy curled up
besiuu a uusn.
Jlmmie was very much alive, hut too
oold to walk or talk. Maliem wrapped him
lu sonic qt is pwtl clothing and put a few
drops of whisky in his mouth. Whisky
straight was too strong a beverage for tlift
child and ho choked. "Mi'k, mi'k,'" he
pried faintly.
Malisni had brought no food with him,
and had nothing fp offer hut whisky.
"Mi'k." said Jlmmie (main.
"All rlclit." said Mnhem. druwlna a
clasp k"lfe, "you shall have milk." And
he tapped a vein in his own arm, caupjit
tne woou in the cap or tils whisky nam,
added a little HoHrbon nnd gave the starv
ing child a liberal draft. Jltmulo was
Jljuqli strengthened by this potion, nnd by
midnight was safely lioipe HglilQ ftpt trans
ferred from Mahem'sto his mother's nvmg,
The Ixry wns able next day to tell sonie
tlJ'tg ftl ttllt liU utl venture, but the captain
then anl always dputu the Uoy'g story
that lie went out of pouiji ou t-lie back, of
old Barney.
"What does Jlmmie mean by mllkf"
asked Mrs. Grogg. "He says that when
you found hin) you gave him milk."

Portland, Ore., April 28. An sleetrlo
car on the Mount Tabor line Jumoed
the track yesterday at East Morrison
nnd Eighth streets and plunged througV
a bridge Into a creek tt feet below.
Three bodies have been recovered. The
dead are: W. w. Hlanchard, laborer;
Newton Hanson, is roam old; Miss
Katharine Bailey.
There were 3( people itt the qar when
the accident occurred, but It Is be
lieved only three were killed. A num
ber were bndlv bruised and Cut by
glass in the car windows.
The nccldcnt occurred on the bridge
which spans the slough at the foot ol
Long hill. When the car reached East
Eleventh street, two blocks from the
scene of the accident, the motorman
lost control of the car, which was then
running about It miles an hour down
the steep hill. When he realised that
the car was beyond his control the
motorman jumped and left the car tn
dash down the Incline with Us load
of passengers. Near the bottom there
Is a curve In the track, and when the
runaway car reached the curve It
Jumped the track. The car ran about
40 feet end then the bridge gave way,
precipitating the car into the water
below.
The conductor and several passcngerd
Jumped before the crash and escaped
with only a slight shaking up. Tho
passengers were mostly laborers on
their way to work.
The water where the car went down
was not more than five feet deep,
which enabled most of the passengers
to escape drowning. Had the accident
occurred 40 feet further ahead It Is
probable that every person on the car
would have been drowned, as tha
water Is 15 feet deep.
