The western part will cover the site of the Coal and Iron Exchange, at Cortlandt and Church streets, with a frontage in Cortlandt street of 209 feet and of 103 feet in Church street. The Broadway en trance will be in Nos. 1C5 and 1C7, and a main corridor 3S feet wide will run through to Church street, a dis tance of 315 feet. The cost of this pile will be more than $3,250,000. In line with the policy of Robert E. Dowling. president of the City Investing company, to give to tenants quick and abundant trans portation facilities, the building will have 21 elevators. It is probable that the building will have an entrance to the McAdoo tun nel, which will come up to Church street, under Cortlandt street, and will turn north under the south side of that thoroughfare. This has not yet been decided upon. In style of architecture the building will be what is technically known as free Italian. The adoption of this type of architecture has given the architect, Francis H. Kimball, an op portunity to produce a structure whose massive appearance will be im posing. THE MAJESTY OF THE LAW Not Essential to the Drawing of an Understandable Will. Every man who has ever tried to guess fine of those conundrums known as in surance policies, or who has ever at tempted to translate into intelligent English any legal document, with all it3 whereases and its hercbys and itsafore saids, will appreciate the sentiments of Deacon Elphonzo Youngs, of Washing ton, who, when making his will, hark cned to the lawyer's opening paragraph, and then exclaimed: "Rats! all there is about this is that at my death 1 want by ever-faithful and devoted wife.

It Was in Use in Lynn, setts, from 1732 to 1903. A little lacquered, wooden box, now in the possession of the Lynn His torical society, and labeled simply "Old Jury Box." could, had it a tongue, tell a long and most interest ing sztory of the growth of the town and city of Lynn during the past 200 years. The box Itself is like most other boxes made in the early part of the eighteenth century, dovetailed at the corners and glued together. It is not a large box, yet the names of many of Lynn's best citizens have been drawn from it for service on a jury sitting in judgment on their fellow men. On the bottom of the box are the figures "1732." and it Is thought that this is the date the box was made. By whom it was constructed nobody seems to know, and nothing can be found in the old town records regard ing its use. However, it is known that it was used nearly 200 years, and that it is probably the oldest box in Lynn to-day. From the time it was constructed until 1903 it was in constant use. But as the years rolled by and the town grew into a city, and a small city into one of great proportions, the box proved too small to hold the names of the jurors. In 1903 City Clerk Joseph W. Att will ordered a new jury box to be made. This is of oak and much larger than the old box. Soon after the com pletion of the new box the old box was presented to the Lynn Historical society, and at present rests in a large wall cabinet. The box has a bail of hand-wroughl iron and an old-fashioned lock and hinges of the same material. A little slot in the top admits of dropping the names into the box. The inside is lefl in the natural wood, but the outside is lacquered, and is about the color oi old mahogany. ODD TIMBER RAFTS. The Lumber Industry of America as Seen by an English Paper. America is so rich in timber she possesses 300 species of trees of which the smallest grows as high as 3( feet and has such magnificent rivers that the timber trade is carried out TIMBER KAFT AFLOAT. on a scale which wt in our little coun try can scarcely imagine, says the London Sphere. Many of these rafts float of their own accord while others are hauled by curious vessels known as "alligators." Thej ' are specially used on the Canadian lakes and rivers and have been de 1 scribed as a cross between a boat ano a grasshopper, for they can navigate a dry and dusty road or make tlicii ! way through a swamp or over a wind j fall. The Lumber Jack is said to be losing some of his old picturesqueness but he retains enough individuality to mark him off from other classes oi workers. He is simple and natural generous and fearless, manly and in dependent. The picture shown in this column illustrate the method of lum bering in western Washington. When the logs are cut they are either skid ded down to the rivers or are floated thither and bound together with enor mous chains. In many cases they are built into a sort of floating cage which is released from beneath them when the pile is completed. It is no uncom mon sight to see a raft containing logs worth $1,000,000.

BbEKssHvB PLATING ON PAPER. Yew Electric Process by Which Pa per Hay Be Coated with aEtstaL A new electric process for covering paper with a metallic surface is given by 'Paper Palp. It consists in placing the bath in a porcelain tank in which are Immersed two metal plate3. One of the plates is formed of the metal which is used to cover the paper. A rather weak current is used for the bath. A thin layer of metal Is depos ited on the second plate, as is usual In the galvanoplastic process. When the deposit has reached a thickness of about 1-250 inch, the plate is placed against a sheet of paper which Is previously coated with the proper kind of glue. After dying, the metallic layer adheres to the paper so strong ly that it remains upon the latter when it is palled off the metal plate. A variation of the process consists In ornamenting the foundation plate with any kind of designs or letters, and these are reproduced on the me tallic deposit The solutions which are recommended in the above process are as follows: For silver paper, a bath is made of cyanide of silver 210 parts, cyanide of potassium 13 parts, water 9S0 parts. For gold paper, cyanide of gold 4 parts, cyanide of potassium 9 parts, water 900 parts. For copper, sulphate of copper 18 parts, sulphuric add 6 parts, water 40 parts. PERILOUS PICTURE TAKING.

The daring photog apher. with his camera, is suspended rom the starboard anchor crane of the attleship. The photograph is not aken as a mere curiosity, but is a reg- PHOTOGRAPHING THE BOW WAVE. ular feature of the trial, the shape of the bow-wave being an important evi dence of the effectiveness of the ves sel's lines. Several of these photo graphs were taken on the trial, of which the paper quoted above says in addition: This was the regular qunrterly trial called for by the navy regulations, but was at the same time a race in which the battle ships Wisconsin and Oregon were also in volved. The Ohio is said to have been IS miles ahead of the Wisconsin at the finish, while the Oregon was out of sight in the rear. The Pocahontas coal used was re ported to be of good quality, but as a mat ter of fact it was mostly slack, due to a low supply. The blowers were run simply for ventilating purposes, and at a very low rate of revolution. It is thought that had the coal been really of first quality, and tho blowers run to their full capacity, the re sult would have exceeded in speed that ob tained upon the builders trial trip, namely, 17.i3 knots. The mean depth of water varied from 15 to 38 fathoms. Autos Take Leather. Summer fads, the Lynn Item de clares, consume leather. The automo bile industry requires much fine stock. It is said that 20.000 cars are being made, or have been made, for the coming season, and that each car will require about 80 feet of leather for its upholstery. So in all, these cars will use up 2.400.000 feet of leath er. Besides, those who follow the sport will require much leather for caps, coats, gloves, leggings and other paraphernalia. The automobile stiff ens prices of leather sharply. The man who wants a new car, or a' new coat, doesn't stop to bother about 25 cents or 50 cents on the price, as do thousands of people over the price of a pair of shoes. Wrought Iron for Pipes. About 1890 several cast-iron con duits at Berlin, from 3.5 to 10 centi meters in diameter, were ruptured, which led the authorities to replace the cast-iron pipes with those of wrought iron, covered with the fol lowing composition for protection: Sixty-five kilogrammes of tar, 3 kilo grammes of rosin. 15 'liters of sand. 7 liters of loamy clay and 4 liters of powdered lime. A coating of this mix ture. 3 or 4 millimeters thick, was applied. In more than a dozen years of service these pipes have been pre served from rust and have undergone no change. Rev. des Eclairages.

MOtJERN TOWER OF Great Steel Tower- Which Is Erected in Germany for Use at Wireless Telegraphy. A wireless telegraph station whose action is expected to cover the en tire European continent is being erected by the German government on the most northwestern point of the country, at Norddeich, in Frlsia. Its great steel tower, 213 feet high. will, send out electric waves that can be detected by receivers located anywhere within a radius of at .least 1,000 miles; and in all probability it will be able to receive and transmit over still greater distances. This is compared by electricity to the Tower of Babel. It says in an editorial article: "The ancient Chaldeans, to whom philologists are apt to give the palm for the legend of the Tower of Babel, could never, in their wildest flights of imagination, have comprehended what we now all regard as a prosaic fact, the existence of a steel tower sending and receiving all languages through invisible space. ... As regards the simile that such an undertaking will be like the Tower of Babel, the fact that it will receive and transmit messages from Germany, Switzerland, France, Great Britain. Denmark. Italy. Sweden. Norway, Spain, the Balkan Peninsula and Russia, is sufficient evi dence on that score. It is believed that operation will be extended as far as Saragossa, Naples and Cetinje to the south; as far as St Petersburg in the east; in the north it will be a voice from the silence to the people of Drontheim and Narvik; and to the east German vessels homeward bound can send their tidings to Norddeich while still on the Atlantic far beyond Land's End. The proposal made in the beginning to erect these epoch making towers on the Island of Bor- kum was dismissed, and a choice made of the seaport Norddeich of the Frisian islands instead. This town is the railway terminus of the Prus sian system and better adapted through its general accessibility to the work in prospect" The entire plant, we are told, will be completed by November. The foundations have already been laid and the iron superstructure is beta? put up as rapidly as possible. At thi base of the towers will live the offi cials and the employes, who will oper ate the telegraph probably enough to form a considerable community. The writer concludes: "The projection of this scheme and its crystallization means the duplica tion of the same idea by the various governments with whom It will keep in touch. "Thus the strange picture Is pre sented of Germany undertaking a titanic task yet a task which in spite of its enormousnes3 is considered a necessary consequence of the changed conditions in the transmission of in telligence manifested in the last ten years. National wireless stations ara the correct idea, as far as methods of international communication are deemed desirable. The only inquiry that seems natural under the circum stances is that relative to the use of high mountains. Along the Atlantic coast we find the great Appalachian range, with its hoary peaks. For gov ernment purposes, secret or otherwise, these high mountains are the one great means of meeting the difficulties of sympathetic or selective signaling. All nations should be thus equipped, If for no other reason, at least for the sake of being able to feel independent of the submarine cable, which any sudden cataclysm at the bottom of the sea may disrupt and destroy." TO PREVENT SEASICKNESS. Russian Seeks to Overcome the Effect of the Motion of Waves by Elec tric Bockirig Chair. There are almost as many recipes and methods for avoiding seasickness as there are for curing colds, and the latest is an Invention by a Russian in a chair actuated by electricity and in tended to lessen or counteract the rolling, heaving and settling. The seat of the chair is movably arranged with respect to the legs, arms and back, and CHAIR DESIGNED TO PREVENT SEA SICKNESS. the sharp up-and-down movements are given by a small electric motor which connects by means of a belt with an eccentric moving the seat The speed and intensity can be regulated at will, and on the preliminary trial of the machine, which took place upon the European liner Patricia, it seemed to work well; but then, all remedies for seasickness and colds work well for some people and at soem times. In commenting tm the Invention the Na tional Tribune says that it seems like ly that the machine would only ag gravate the malady. Exasperated.

YOU LOSE, HBaBBaBaBBBJBBSJBJHSaSBflBHBaBHSHBSISBHaiggSBBBg By JAMES BABJUNCTON (Cosnicht. fey JNk a. BwIm.) As a hansom cab stopped at the gate way in a " suburban town not far from New York, a trolley car came to a halt before the same house. From the hansom cab there sedately stepped a tall, grave-faced young man. He was carefully, even elaborately dressed, in a formal style. A carnation bloomed In the lapel of his coat giving the last touch to a masterpiece. "I'll walk to the house. Return In an hour." he said to the driver, who drove away. As the young man turned toward the gateway he met an other young man. who had jumped briskly from the trolley car ere it fully stopped. The - second young man's coat was a sack, worn with a careless air; his soft felt hat would have been the better for a brushing, especially how. when placed alongside of the first young man's shining silk. "Well how are you. Carson?" said he of the tall hat; and an interpreter of the subtler tones of human speech would have said he meant: "Confound you!" "How are you. Digby?" responded the trolley passenger, and the hypo thetical reader of tones would have de clared his real meaning to be: "Oh. the devil take the luck!" And the two young men stood stock still for a moment or two. in the ardent sunshine of the spring after noon, staring ruefully, blankly, one at the other. "Look here, Digby." said Carson, with the stock broker's energy. "Let's talk this thing over for a minute. If we both go in what's the use no fun in that for either of us. Am I cor rect?" "You certainly are. old chap. But perhaps it would be fun for for Miss Carrollton." "Oh. no doubt It would but I. for one. am rather tired of furnishing Miss Carrollton that kind of fun." "And I am, for another." "In fact," went on Carson, intently eying the other man. "I ran out to day to settle up my share in the fun. one way or the other." The other man started, and replied with a livelier air than he had hither to shown: "We appear to be getting confoundedly confidential and ex planatorybut all right let it go at that. I came out with precisely the same object In -view." "Old man." said Carson, laying his hand on the other's sleeve, "honest Injun, now, what do you think of your chances?" "Tell me what you think of youra. Carty. and I'll be In better shape to give you an answer." "Well, Digby, I, know this much or believe it the chances lie between us two. No others in sight" "'I am Inclined to agree with you." said Digby. "And, to go a step farther, the chap who gets his question in first has well the lead at any rate." "Guess you're right about that, too," assented Carson. With a sudden gleam in his eyes. Digby turned to his rival. "Look here, old chap; I'll toss you to see who goes first. Man who wins why he why he pops the question without any more fuss right off the bat. and settles the thing." Carson stared; and then a smile broke out over his handsome face. "Sure! I say you have more sporting blood than I gave you credit for." "Oh, I have a little, when I arouse it." said Digby. with an air of' mod esty. He drew a 50-cent coin from his pocket "Let's toss this best two of three wins." Suddenly he paused and looked around. "But, look here. Carty. we may be under observation from the house; rather ridiculous to be seen acting like a pair of newsboys play ing pitch and toss. Here. I'll show you a wrinkle. We'll spin the coin on this stone bench here, and call what face falls upward." "That's good enough for me. Dig you spin I trust in Dame Fortune let her go!" "Beg your pardon.

"I cry tails." said Digby. The sil ver coin turned like a bubble in the sunshine, and fell with a musical tinkle. "You win. Digby!" cried .Car son, a flush mounting into his cheeks. "Now you twist her." Digby did so. "I'll take a turn at tails just for luck." said Carson. And the coin turned tails up. "Last time. Dig," said Carson, set ting the coin a-whirling once again. "Oh, I stick to tails." said Digby "never like to hedge, you know." And the coin turned date up. "All right.

I leaves it to Mike, here, if I ain't right, heh. Mike? You take a silver coin and twirl it. like that on its edge; and nine times ..est of ten it will fall tails up.

English and American Firms Taken by a Band of Shrewd Operators. The fact that, one of them is still born every minute has just been forci bly illustrated in the case of Ameri can and English firms dealing with a band of swindlers recently operating from Smyrna. The matter, says the Washington Star, has been brought to the attention of the state depart ment only after swindles amounting to something over 950.000 had been worked on English firms, while the amount taken out of America has not yet been computed. The operation of the swindlers was simple and effective. They advertised and sent out hundreds of circular let ters to importing houses both here and in Europe, offering various mer chandise, oils, hides, wool and dried fruits at much less than the market quotations. Many of the Importing firms here and abroad bit at the bait and sent orders, joining bank credits for as much as 90 per cent of the value of the goods. The goods were shipped in due course and the money collected, but when they arrived the consign ments were found to be totally differ ent from what had been ordered. The finest woolen fleece would prove to be filthy woolen rags, "choice Smyrna figs" would be the last refuse of the packing houses, and so on. The mat ter was placed in the hands of the local consuls, and on their complaint some of the swindlers were arrested, while the others fled. But the fraud has adversely affected the credit of many reputable houses in the Levant NEW STREET DRESSES.
