THE DESIGN BAD?
tMtects Talk on the New
Postoffice.
>RSE THAN COHOSPLICE.
t We May Yet Obtain a Thing of
Beauty.
DEPEOS ON A BATTLE FOR ART.
al Architects "Roast" the Design
and the Government's Ways
With Its Buildings.
O;me of the prominent architects of San
icisco have recently been giving spare
rs to evolving their ideal of what the
. Postoffice building should look like.
t is not at all certain that the design
pared in the shop of the Supervising
Jhitect at Washington and shown in
c Call a short time ago will ever be
ae a reality. There is a good prospect
t before the time to lay the granite
he new building comes, some master of
great profession may be given the job
planning it, with the result that San
.ncisco's chief public building may rise
nore noble beauty than appears in the
;sic commonplaceness that now threat
us from Washington.
he best local architects vigorously con
in the design whenever they are asked
ut it. They say that from an architec
al point of "view it is cheap, cominon
-2e and unworthy; that it is on a level
h the designs for Government buildings
over the country that are ground out
the plan factory at Washington, and
t it is a shame that a Government
icture which will cost millions and
id for generations should not be de
ul by a man of rank in his profession.
i s is a familiar protest, but a point of
interest is that there is a strong pos
y that the ways of the Government
lational architecture may be revolv
ed in time for San Francisco to get a
ffice building designed by an architect
nius. This possibility carries with it
me that one or more San Francisco
i tects may have their designs consid
i and that the great building the city
1 raited for so long may be a monument
3 ;al genius.
' this may result from a strong cam
:n that the best architects all over the
ted States are carrying on in favor of
v of Congress and a policy in the Treas
i)epartment which shall" not only till
office of supervising architect with a
i of high ability, but shall give the de
ting of every important public building
n eminent American architect selected
r a competitive submission of designs
iye men of rank named by a small com
sion.
»me months ago the American Institute
Architects made an aggressive move in
>r of an able supervising architect md
d of a comparatively unknown politi
1, but President D. H. Burnham, late
of construction of the World's Fair,
vigorously snubbed by Secretary Car
s when the plan was urged. Since then
; matter has been much urged and dis
ced and Carlisle has drawn in his horns
tie.
ow the American Institute of Archi
* is making a strong effort to get John
arrere of New York, a man of high
ty and wide reputation, appointed
rvising architect. San Francisco is in
his move. A few days ago A. Page
.'n sent East a contributory petition in
r of Carrere, signed by a" number of
1 architects, all of whom warmly in
*e the move. If Carrere is appointed
•c will be a new design for the San
neisco Postoffice and it would probably
one that competent architects would
sneer at.
he chief reform which is being urged is
>raced in the McKaig bill, now pending
"ongres!>. This measure, prepared by
American Institute of Architects,
ild make the designs of all future Gov
ment buildings the product of the best
litectural genius of the country, and
World's Fair buildings, with the one
eption of the Government building,
wed what such a policy would result in.
roadly, this bill provides for a commis-
L composed of three eminent architects
two army engineers, who shall select
litects and designs for all public build
3. They shall select a small number of
litects of standing who will consent to
mit competitive designs. The commis
i will select the design, and the success
architect will be paid in accordance
\ a scale proportioned by the cost. He
supervise the construction, as in
ate work, subject to the supervision of
supervising architect. A law like this

ae fate of the San Francisco Postoffice
nked with this bill, and its possibilities
c inspired some, early local dreams of a
Francisco Postoth'ce". for if the pending
•lution is successful San Francisco
ild undoubtedly be represented among
competing architects.
ae design which has been put forth
i the Supervising Architect's office is

tld say is that it is commonplace. It

eminent buildings are. Perhaps the
t noticeable fault is the lack of t-implic-

as good as could be expected under the
sent system and I hope the bill before
igress will pass in time to give San
ncisco a building worthy of admira
i."
It's extremely commonplace," said F.
Hamilton, "and of the same general
racter as Government buildings gen
ly, which are planned about as they do
•k" in a factory. There are scores of
h things all over the United States. Of
rse one cannot intelligently criticize
h a design in detail from a rough sketch,
it seems to lack simplicity of treat
it for one thing. There are too many
iks and projections. That low attic
r the central pavilion seems to have no
use for being there, and I don't see
it that second balustrade was put in
Those arches in the third story of the
ler pavilions do not harmonize with the
of the design.
You can't expect anything especially
lirable to come out of the supervising
litect's office. Work is done by factory
methods. There is much work to do and
no time for details. A private architect
will have one or probably sit most two im
portant buildings in hand in a year. The
Government braiding at the World's Fair
amid the magnificent specimens of archi
tecture there showed what Government
designs are compared with what is possi
ble. This deisign was probably worked out
presumably by some draughtsman. In
Europe public taste demands better things
and there the magnificent public buildings
are designed by men selected for their
genius and reputation, and not on account
of their political influence. The leading
architects of the country are working and
hoping for a change that will raise the
standard of national architecture, and I
hope that it will come soon and soon
enoueh to give San Francisco a public
building that may be admired with pride."
A. Page Brown simply said that the de-
P> a very ordinary thing, but he de
j discuss it in detaiL
icks like the work of a cheap
sman," was Willis Polk's opinion,
sample of what the Treasury De
partment turns out. The supervisingarch
ltects and their assistants nave nearly al
ways been comparatively unknown men,
with little ability but political pulls, and
they design the most important buildings
in the country. There is nothing original
or artistic in this design. It is impossible
to go into detail, but there is no simplicity
or dignity to it. Those arches in the corner
pavilions destroy the symmetry and repose
of the whole structure.* It is a shame that
such a design shouid be turned out after
the Court of Honor at the World's Fair,
which should have had some influence on
Government architecture. The designing
of such a building ought to be given to an
architect of recognized ability instead of be
ing ground out of the national plan factory
at Washington, where they throw some
things together and call it a design."
Clinion Day condemned it as very
ordinary, but declined to go into a discus
sion of the particular faults of the design.
So altogether the appearance of the
EPostofiice remains one of the many
rtain things about it, but there is a
iing^ possibility that when the build
ing is done it may be an illustration of
what the best architectural genius of
America can do, instead of something that
architects would avoid by going down the
next street.
The City's Creditors.
A resolution was passed by the Supervis
ors yesterday providing that the board
meet on Saturday afternoon, February 9,
at 2 o'clock, for the purpose of resolving
itself into a committee of the whole to hear
the creditors of the city who desire to pre
sent their claims for the consideration of
the board.

At a meeting of the directors of the Bay
City Wheelmen the resignation of Captain
Horace Martin was read and accepted. Ex-
Captain Theodore Dodge is prominently
mentioned to fill the vacancy, and would
make an efficient officer. J. F. Hancock
and W. F. Hallett are also in the field.
Messrs. Edwards. Osen, Davis, Jones,
Delmas and Smith' of the Garden City
Cyclers, went to Livermore yesterday and
will try for straightaway records on the
road there to-morrow.
Thomas S. Hall of the Bay City "Wheel*
men, a well-known racer, was injured in a
football game last Saturday and will not
be able to ride this spring.
At the Imperial Club's meeting Monday
night, John S. Egan was elected captain
vice C. W. Conger, resigned. The new
captain has called a moonlight run to the
park on Friday night, and a run to Hay
wards next Sunday.
At a meeting held last night the Young
Men's Christian Association Wheelmen's
Club of this city decided to withdraw from
the Associated Clubs, as they are not in
favor pf Sunday road racing. It is stated
that the Oakland branch will follow the
same course also.
The California Cycling Club had a run
to the Park last night; it will have another
spin on Friday night, and a ladies' night
Saturday at the clubroom.
Archie Reid, who ranks with H. F. Ter
rill as the best class A rider on the coast,
has just returned from a six months' trip
to Scotland. He is out of form now, and
will not race until the first of April.
Emil Languetin, another of the B. C.
W.s class A racers, has returned from an
extended Eastern trip, and will soon be
seen on the path again.
Messrs. Ziegler, Harbottle and Coulter
are now training daily on the Central Park
track, having commenced yesterday.
Their racing suits are Nile green, bordered
with pink, and are very showy.
Riders going to San Jose on the Oakland
side should go via Havwards and Niles, as
the road by way of Alvarado is almost im
passable for over a mile.
The opening of the Garden City Cyclers'
new clubhouse will not take place this
week. Forty-three members of the G. C. C.
attended their initial run of this year to
Los Gatos last Sunday.
The San Jose-Gilroy record was lowered
by Holloway of the G. C. C. last Sunday ;
he rode the thirty miles in lh. 27rnin.,
which is 22min. less than the previous
record.
Oscar Osen will try for the unpaced mile
record while at Livermore.
Wilbur F. Knapp returned from Los
Angeles yesterday, and says things are
very lively in wheeling circles there now.
Before formally disbanding for this year
the St. Mary's College eleven came to
gether yesterday for the purpose of elect
ing a manager and captain for next year.
John Jannetof '96 was unanimously chosen
for manager. He is an all-round athlete,
energetic and enterprising, and will show
himself the right man in the right place.
For the captaincy Hugh J. Mclsaac of '96,
who played end in l&W and halfback in
J 994, was elected. W. J. Hanlon, quarter
back of the 1894 team, aspired to the posi
tion but succumbed to the claim of supe
rior ability and experience put forward by
the friends of Mclsaac.
All things considered, the St. Mary boys
may look back with satisfaction to the rec
ord of the past season. Lnck was against
them, as the fire which destroyed the col
lege last September caused almost two
months' loss of practice, and this com
bined with the lack of a good second eleven
to buck against gave but little opportunity
for team work. The eleven contained in
dividual players, however, who could hold
their own against the best in the State and
needed but little efficient coaching to form
them into a team hard to defeat. To bring
about this result next season no efforts
will be spared by the newly elected captain
and manager.
The annual meeting of the Country Club

THJK MORNUNG CALL, SAN FRANCISCO, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1895.
RAN OFF THE COURSE.
A Queer Termination to the
Hurdle Race
THAT CAUSED A BIG HOWL.
Mendocino and Bellringer Took the
Wrong Route.
INGOMAR W« TIIE MILE HANDICAP.
Imp. True Briton at Last Got Out of the
Maiden Class by Winning the
Opening Race.
Everything passed off quietly at the
track yesterday until the hurdle race over
the steeplechase course, which was fourth
on the card, came along, and then there
was trouble. Hurdle races never could be
played on form, and of course this waa no
exception. Mendocino was again played
for a good thing, ridden by a jockey out
side of the "combine," Billy Hill, formerly
a clever rider on the flat. Bellringer, who
lately changed hands, was backed down
from threes to 2 to 1 and off the earth.
Hayrnarket, who recently won a race, ably
assisted by Major Ban, and was lauded up
to the skies by a certain few as a world
beater, had 6 to 1 against him. He, like
Bellringer, belongs to a bookmaker. Tem
plemore, an excellent performer, had
eights about him. Mero and Dave Doug
lass also started in the race.
Bellringer, Mendocino and Templemore
were the contending horses over the first
four jumps, when Templemore fell back
and his place was taken by Haymarket.
Mendocino and Bellringer led over the fifth,
sixth and seventh jumps. Just after taking
the latter Mendocino and Bellringer, the
first and second choices, bolted and left the
course, and Mero to be fashionable fol
lowed them. Haymarket while making
up his mind which course to take was
passed by Templemore and the latter won
the ra.ee easily. Haymarket was a com
fortable second and April a lucky third.
There was the usual howl by those that
lost their money with the usual conse
quences. The jockeys came up smiling
with the old story of not seeing the danger
signal and running into the open draw.
Bets were declared off when Ballarat, a
favorite, ran off the course at a former
meeting, but no such luck befell those
that played the money yesterday.
All tlie favorites were "barreled" with
the exception of Lonnie B, on which Carr
rode a very clever race.
The opening race of the day, a short
six-furlong race for maidens, was taken by
imp. True Briton, who has been many
years getting out of that class. He went
to the post 6 to 1. Favor and Tom Clark
were both heavily played. True Briton
led almost the entire distance, Tom
Clark heading him slightly at the half, but
he shook him off and won handily by two
lengths. Norblieh was second, a head in
front of Tom Clark.
Another favorite was bowled over in the
second race, a six-furlong run. Martinet
opened at 2to 1 and was quickly backed
down to 8 to 5, the Mariner colt being con
sidered a little sure money. Find Out and
Ravine were backed down a point from
their opening odds, while most of the
other starters went back in the betting.
Steadfast was away first as the flag fell,
but was soon passed by Find Out and
Martinet. The former leading fill the way
won handily by two lengths, Martinet
beating Steadfast fully three lengths for
second money.
Ingomar apparently outclassed his field
in the mile handicap, but has performed
so poorly at the meeting that outside of
the stable connections very little money
went in on him. In at top weight, 120
pounds, he opened at fours and went to the
post 3 to 1.
Eckert, Flirtilla and Leonville were all
well supported, as was San Luis Rey of the
Pleasanton stable, the latter at extrava
gant odds. Montana money brought
Emma Mack's price down as they went to
the post.
Ingomar, Leonville and San Luis Rey
headed the field as the flag fell. Burns al
most immediately rushed Emma Mack to
the front, and she led Ingomar at the quar
ter and past the half. Around the
far turn San Luis Rey, Quirt and
Leonville made a bid for the lead,
turning into the stretch all in a bunch.
Straightened for home Ingomar again took
command, and held it to the wire, winning
by half a length from Leonville. San Luis
Rev, who was cut off near the sixteenth
pole, finished third.
The last race on the card over the short
six-furlong course was taken by the favor
ite, Lonnie B. The horse that undoubtedly
received the most backing was Sun Spray,
with Griffin up, who opened at threes, and
was backed down to 11 to 5. All of the
others receded in the betting from their
I opening prices.
Claire led to the half, but was passed on
the far turn by Sun Spray, who headed
Lonnie B into the stretch. The latter
passed Sun Spray in the stretch, and won
by two lengths. Lulu got third place from
Prince by a head.

Track Note*.
Sir Walter was a very, sick horse after
the second run. His recovery was con
sidered doubtful.
Edward Corrigan has sent three of his
string to Raneho del Paso, to be turned out
until the return of the stable East. Charley
Weber, O'Fleta and Rodegap were the
lucky ones.
George Rose put a good-sized bet on his
horse Leonville.
Chorn rode the winners yesterday. He
rode an excellently judged race on Ingomar,
which was in marked contrast to his ride
on Volt the day previous.
Imp. True Briton was well backed to win
his race.
Stony Clark thought the only one his
colt Tom Clark had to beat was Favory.
Ravine, well backed to win the second
race, ran very well for some distance.
Al Smith thought he had a cinch with
Eckert. He finished fourth.
Spence said Bellringer would have won
had he not left the course.
Stanford, on Haymarket, claimed Tem
plemore fouled him, but the claim was not
allowed.

YOU SCHMIDT'S SANITY
The Question Raised in His Suit for
Damages.
Plaintiff Claims It Is No Defense to the
Charge of Brutality Now
Pendiug.
The case of Alfred W. yon Schmidt
against the Home for Inebriates still con
tinues before Judge Daingerfield, the de
fense having only just commenced, and
there being two more witnesses for the
plaintiff to be heard from as soon as they
can be secured. The testimony yesterday
morning related chiefly to the general
method of treating patients in the home,
how they were fed and what amount of
care was bestowed upon them. In the
afternoon Yon Schmidt himself was re
called to the stand, and he told again, in
detail, the story of how he was tied down
to his bed in the home and how when he
remonstrated he was kicked and cuffed
without mercy.
In the cross-examination Judge Sawyer,
who represents Dr. Potter, the superinten
dent of the home, insisted on obtaining tes
timony regarding the insanity of the plain
tiff. Mrs. Foltz, attorney for plaintiff,
fought hard to keep the family matters of
the Yon Schmidts from the public ear,
because, she said, it was entirely imma
terial whether the plaintiff was insane or
not. He had charged in his complaint
that the defendant, Dr. Potter, had brutally
maltreated him, had assaulted him without
cause, and had, by his attendants, al
lowed him to be neglected for days,
stranped to his bed and unable to move
hand or foot. The insanity of the de
fendant's family, she said, was no reason
why his breast-bone should be stamped in
or his teeth knocked down his throat, and
in response to her arguments the court
somewhat circumscribed the limit of Judge
Sawyer's questions.
The first witness for the defendant was
Colonel A. W. yon Schniidt, the father of
the plaintiff. He testified as to how he
sent his son to the Home for Inebriates
because he thought his son insane and be
cause he could find no other place where
such a patient would be taken.
T0 COMPLETE THE HALL,
Two Bills Drafted by City Hall Commis-
gloner Creswell.
The Board of City Hall Commissioners
met yesterday morning for the purpose of
considering plans for the completion of
the building. Commissioner Creswell
presented a draft of two bills, which he
recommended for submission to the Legis
lature. One of the bills provided fora new
levy, and the other for the construction of
a", new roof, other than the mansard roof
provided for in the original plan. In regard
to the second bill, Commissioner Creswell
said he would never vote for the construc
tion of any but a mansard roof, if the
Legislature did not sanction another kind.
Mayor Sutro said he was in favor of a
permanent roof, which would give another
story to the hall, and this he was informed
by the architect would cost $200,000. All
of the Commissioners coincided with the
views of the Mayor, who asked for several
days' time in which to inspect the bills
submitted by Commissioner Creswell. It
was thought that sufficient money could be
raised to complete the hall on the lines
mentioned by a 10-cent levy.
The Mayor was strongly in favor of a
levy for one year only, as he said commis
sions had been tinkering away at the hall
for twenty years, and it was* time it was
finished.
O'Connell & Lewis, the contractors of
the dome, asked for an extension of 120
days, but the board agreed to give them
only ninety days. The board postponed
action on the progress estimates of the
dome contractors for partial payment of
$7000. as Commissioner Creswell said he
would vote against the estimates if they
were brought up. This was on account of
the ironwork on the ground not yet being
put into the donie.
The commission decided to have a dia
gram drawn of the different City Hall
floors, and to number each office in the
building.
He Cut Andrew Pastene,
Augustino Poanelli, an Italian fruit
peddler, was arrested yesterday for an as
sault to murder Andrew Pastene of Pas-
t !l n ® Bros., wholesale fruit-dealers on
Washington street. Poanelli cut Pastene
in the side with a knife during a quarrel
ul, F F lda y morning. Pastene was not
badly injured.

THE NEW RACETRACK
Edward Corrigan Says It
Will Be Biult.
MR. WILLIAMS' WITHDRAWAL
It Will Have h Effect Whatever on
the New Enterprise.
WORK WILL BE COMMENCED SHORTLY.
The New Racetrack Will Be in Readiness
for the Winter Meeting
Next Year.
The new racetrack near Ingleside" will be
built independently of Thomas H. Wil
liams. Edward Corrigan ia the authority
for this statement. He and Joseph Ullman
of New York control the ground for the
new racing track, having already deposited
some $80,000 in compliance with the agree
ment of purchase.
Mr. Williams announced his intention of
withdrawing from the enterprise at a
meeting of those interested a few days
ago. He wished to control the stock of the
new association, and finding it impossible
to do so retired, and will devote his atten
tion to the old Bay District track.
"Mr. Williams does not own one cent in
the proposed track," said Mr. Corrigan, as
he watched the horses start in the hurdle
race at the Bay District track yesterday.
"And more than that he is not likely to.
While we should be glad to have his co
operation or that of any other man anxious
to have a good track and good racing, we
will be able to get along without him.
"The new track will be built. There is
no question about that. We will expend
about $370,000 in the enterprise and hope to
have a first-class track in every way, where
racing will be properly conducted. It will
be a racetrack in every respect.
"There is no reason why winter racing
in California should not be successfully
carried on. This is an excellent ciimate
for horses from the East to winter in.
They can do a little racing while here and
be all the better for it. When they are re
turned to the East in the spring they are
not as likely to 'fall down' as they would
be if they remained in a colder
climate during the winter months. I
am very favorably impressed with the
idea of winter racing in California. In
fact. I like the winter here myself.
"The organization of the new association
is as yet incomplete, and as to the plans
and arrangement of the track I have no
ideas at present. We hope to have the
organization completed soon, however,
and will commence operations in time to
have the track completed and opened for
racing next winter. We are going to push
this enterprise independently of all opposi
tion."
Messrs. Corrigan and Ullraan have sub
scribed for 60 per cent of the new associa
tion. T. H. Williams had subscribed 15
cent, Colonel D. M. Burns and Mose Gunst
10 per cent each, and P. Dunn, B. Schreiber
and James Rowe 5 per cent each. Mr.
Williams' proposition was to have Corri
gan and Ullman relinquish 10 per cent of
their stock to his friends, and the proposi
tion was rejected. For that reason Mr.
Williams signed over his stock, and now
there is a nice little war brewing.
Ingleside is about half a mile from the
ocean, and the site of the new racetrack
is a half-mile southeast from this point. It
is only a short distance north of the San
Mateo electric railway, and is easy of access
both by street railroad and driveways.
PAKISTAN OAFES.
Some Fantastic Places That Are Seen
in the French Metropolis.
We can, if we please, go to the Convicts'
Cafe, where properly authenticated con
victs, neatly but not too closely manacled,
serve you, their chains clanking as they
walk, in separate cells modeled on those
of a real prison. But there we were lonely,
so that did not succeed. You may also go
to the Cave of the Sorcerer, where Lucifer
himself, with horns, scepter and throne
complete, so far forgets his once princely
rank as to pour out the various beverages
demanded, which are brought you by
weird-looking little imps of Satan, while
the walls are painted to resemble flames,
and you can contemplate in a magic mir
ror the sight of the extremely uncomfort
able condition of the unfortunate souls
who have fallen under the sway of Satan's
scepter. But by this we were distinctly
bored.
Some of us did not believe in the king
dom of Satan, and all of us agreed that, as
far as staging went, it was inferior to the
Walpurgis night scene in "Faust." So we
stayed away and pined for something new.
Just about this time one of the great
Parisian dailies started a crusade in favor
of cremation, as a lot of crematories had
just been expropriated and their contents
taken to the Catacombs.
Moreover, the city of Paris has recently
constructed, at great expense, a very elabo
rate crematory, which is flourishing ex
ceedingly, but which the municipality
wished to have more extensively adver
tised. The editor meditated over how he
could achieve the aim which an intimation
from high authorities had requested him
to attain if possible, and had an inspira
tion.
He ordered a set of huge colored photo
graphs showing the change day by day in
the defunct until the skeleton stage is
reached. These were neatly framed and
hung in the newspaper office, and the
public was notified that they could view
this series free of expense. The photo
graphs, of course, are much better imag
ined than described ; but the success of the
exhibition was instantaneous and over
whelming.
All ranks and conditions of people of
both sexes drifted through the rooms and
decided that the exhibition was most curi
ous; therefore, cremation obtained a most
tremendous boom, and is at present firmly
incorporated among Parisian institutions.
—Paris Letter.
THE BRAVEST BOY IN TOWN.
Was Dressed Like a Dude, but He Was
Good and Gentle.
People who rode downtown in a certain
electric-car on Washington avenue yester
day about noon are inclined to think that
they received a liberal return for their
investment of a nickel apiece. In addition
to being carried safely and expeditiously
to their destination they were given an
opportunity of becoming acquainted with
the bravest young man in all St. Louis.
That, at all events, is the light in which
they regard him.
He was a good-looking, stylishly dressed,
boyish young fellow, and next to him sat
a shabby woman holding in her lap a
winning, unattractive baby. Something
about the young man's appearance seemed
to please the baby and it stopped whining
long enough to smile brightly and extend
its arms toward him. The young man
blushed furiously and two or three sirls on
an opposite seat* tittered— A-hich made the
young man blush still more. He edjred
away as far as possible and tried, with in
different success, to look unconcerned.
When the baby renewed its advances he
refused to respond to them, and the mother, [
annoyed and embarrassed, made an effort j
to distract its attention.
, But the baby was not to be put off. It j
liked that younp man and wanted to see |
more of him. When it became evident
that there was a combination to prevent it
doing so the little one fell back upon child
hoodja last resort und cried lustily.
Vainly the mother tried to soothe her. j
Whispered assurances that "she was aj
good girl" had no effect. Endearing epi- j
thets made her cry more loudly. She had !
eyes and ears only for a very* badly "rat- |
tied" young man, who did not seem to re- j
turn her affection. She cried as if her I
heart were breaking.
And then the young man rose to the oc
casion. Calmly ignoring the broadening
smiles of a car full of passengers, he took
the child from its mother, rocked it a mo
ment in his strong arms, then walked for
ward and sat down. Instantly the baby's
wail gave way to laughter. Her towzlcd
little head was laid upon her new friend's
shoulder, her arm was about his neck, and
not once again, until Broadway was j
reached, did she utter a sound, save in I
glee. The mother didn't quite know what i
to make of it. Neither did the young man
himself, for that matter, and "as for the
girls who had tittered, why, it was entirely
beyond their comprehension.
And the strangest part of the story is
that the young man looked like a dude.
One of the girls, however, explained that
as she left the car.
"Of course he can't really be a dude,"
she said to her companions, "because he
has lots of sense and a great big heart. He
just dresses like a dude to deceive people.
1 wonder why he does it?"— St. Louis Re
public.
The competition among the manufac
turers of shoes is so lively that nobody
need have stone-bruises on his heels from
going barefooted.
Our workingmen of every < class are paid
from one-fourth to one-half more wages
than those of similar employments in
Europe.
