THE FEDERAL BUILDING ,
Work HcKati On Tlio Snmo Ycitcr-
ilftj.
The alcnin pile driver began work at
the corner of Broadway and Sixth strool
yesterday morning. The piles are six
teen foot long , nnd it will require about
iiOO for the foundation of the building to
rest on. It will probably take all of this
month to complete the driving of those
piles.
piles.Mr.
Mr. Frank Wise , the foreman of the
driving gang , had two of his fingers
on his right hand ninshcd early in the
morning , but amputation will bo unnecca
aary.
aary.At
At the completion of the driving of the
third pile the cap that protects the top of
of the pile from splitting when atruck by
the hammer , was found to bo split , and
it waa taken nway to bo bolted together ,
until a now ono couH bo made. Seven
teen piles were all that wcro driven.yes
terday. *
Mr. 0. J. King superintendent of the
building and his aaaiatant Mr. 0. Boll
were kept busy moat of the day answer
ing questions put to them by outsiders ,
ixll being anxious to know what kind of n
building it is to bo and if ho starts in on
the plans for n $100,000 building or n
§ 200,000 ono. lie , ( Sir. King ) stated
that the only correct account of what ho
proposed to do vras published in The
BKI : and that ho waa simply following
instructions from Washington. His in
structions are to proceed under the laat
plans received by him which widens the
the Duilding fourteen foot on Broadway.
IIo will continue on the foundation and
the next session of congress appro
priates the additional § 100,000 asked for ,
the superstructure will bo of stone in
stead of brick and the foundation will
not have to bo changed.
It is thought that ton or twelve foot
below the bottom of the foundation that
thereis quick Band as when the piles
got down that far they spring up somo.
The building is to bo eighty-six foot
on Sixth street and one-hundred and
aix foot on Broadway. The government
_ round on which the building is to bo .
erected is 120 by 100 foot.
"BUGGY JIM , "
The JLSunco Stccrcr Ho Pulls to Fool
a Council Binds ninn.
A gentleman who hna juat returned
'rom the state fair at Daa Molnea reports
.0 ono of Tun BEK force hia experience
with a follow known as Jim Ballard but
> y his pala nnd the crooks generally as
'Buggy Jim. " It seems this "Buggy
Jim" once kept a stableiu Chicago and
would not allow anyone to have a buggy
.hat waa finer than his , consequently
; hey called him "Buggy Jim. "
The gentleman reports that thia crook
tackled him and tried to steer himag&inat
a Hchcmoin which theCouncil Blull's man
was sure to win several hundred dollars
and had nothing to loose all that was
necessary to win this "pilo" was simply
to go with Mini" to a room where a lot
tery waa being carried on and buy ono
iiundrod dollars worth of tickets and ho
was auro to win as they were willing to
lot him win in order to got some others to
"bite. " The man from this city "caught
on" to his racket and wont with him. Ho
says this "Buggy Jim" uses more slang
than any man ho over hoard , so much
BO that ho could hardly toll
what the follow waa talking about. On
their arrival in the room where the busi
ness was supposed to bo carried on , the
man behind the desk fnvo Jim "tho
laugh" at trying to "down" this man in
whom ho recognized an old acquaintance.
They then talked over matters , and the
gentleman left thorn. "Buggy .Jim , " in
meeting the Blull's man on the street
told him ho had fared well in DCS Moines
and was coming west the next day and in
tended to take in Omaha during the fair
week. It Is stated that "Buggy Jim" is
the elickeat bunco atouror botvrecn Chicago
cage and San Francisco.
Tliat nocr Garden.
Complaint is continually being made
by the residents of Upper 1'lorco street
about the beer garden , which ia said to
bo managed by ono Bohning. Yesterday
ono of the residents of that part of the
city told n Bin : man that from ! ) o'clock '
Sunday mVht until 'J o'clock Monday
morning there mras continued lighting ,
that the place was packed with the very
worst claoo of men and women in the
city , that prostitutes end pimps were
driving up and down the street in front
of Casper's nnd Keolino's residences
shouting , cursing and using all
the indecent language at their
command that the neighbors nro afraid to
enter complaint against them for fear
they will fire their residences , and that
police protection is too limited for that
part of town. The gentleman said ho
was going to try and have the place
closed up , at any rate on Sundays.
It acorns time that some cllbctivo move
should bo made to close up thia garden , /
ia this I'M not the first tlmo that complaint
lias been made through newspapers nor [
[ ho second time by any monna. And in
iho name of law and order Tin' BKK de

Ono trouble about the owners of Broad
way property is that at least two thirds
of them nro non-residents nnd quite
lixrgo number live abroad. The owner < f
the Borcol building at Cedar slrout , for
instance is Madame Bnrccl , who has liv
ed in 1'iuis for n < \ \ artor of n century ,
and has brought up her children as IViri-
slung. This budding yields her n rev
enue of $ f > 00,000 , and nil matters beyond
yond revenue are profound indiiloronci'
to the owner. The territory m dispute
between the rnllro.vda ia Broadway , from
Fourteenth street to the Battery. It In
valued at § 80,000,000 and hns nearly ono
thousand dill'erent owners so widely scat
tered that It Is difficult to obtain an
opinion from n genuine majority nf thorn.
They are nwaro , however , that rontu on
Broodway , between Canal and Fourteenth -
toenth ntroots , have not advanced since
the elevated railroads were built , and
that business has deteriorated , nnd they
begin to feel like welcoming u horao rail
road or Anything else that will restore
tnvdo to the thoroughfare.
Quito n number of the owners of pro
perty there nro women , nnd they show
in the main nn oxcollontcnpacity for bus
iness. In tholr caao the wealth ia in
herited , nnd such women are rarely
spendthrifts. It is said that Now York
liolds ( ho richest woman iu the country
In the poraon of Miss Catherine Wolfe ,
whoso benefactions have always kept
l > ace with the growth of her riches. Her
father married euccesaively two sistorn of
ho hto Peter Lorillard , and acquired n
dowry with each wife. Catherine Wolfe ,
the oldeat of the children , ia now ml-
vanccd In years , and the real estate she
> wns in this city ia said to bo worth six
or seven millions nud her total yearly
revenue is nearly ono million. Of suitors
aho has had ninny , but aho has found
.hat her fortune was the objective point ,
and aho hns kept them nil nt n distance.
! t is n heavy pounlty to pay for wenlth ,
nit she boars the loss well at least out
wardly. Newport people some-
hues Imvo n dispute as
o whether Miss Wolfe or Mrs. Sam.
Jolt , of Hartford , widow of Sam Colt , of
revolver fame , 1ms the most money in her
own right. Mrs. Colt was the daughter
of llov. William Jarvia , on Episcopal
niniator , and her husband left at her nl-
nest absolute disposal an immense pro-
icrty , which has rapidly appreciated
mdor her hands in the last twenty years.
Jolt , by the way , was a man of nbomina-
) ly bad temper and equally evil morals ;
nit his wife has nlwnya spoken of him na
f ho were nn angel of goodness , nnd oven
deified him in n email volume published
after his death. Misa Wolfe might hayo
done equally well. Both ladies nro Epis
copalians , and their benefactions to that
church Imvo been right royal.
Nothing IMiulo liiViiin.
Wo are told that nothing wns made ii
vain ; but what can bo said of the fashion
able cirl of the period ? Is n't she maiden
vain ? Hood's Sarsapnrilla is made in
Lowell , Mass. , where there nro more bet
; los of it sold than of any other snrsapa-
rilla or blood purifier. And it is never
taken in vain. It' purifies the blood ,
strengthens the ayatcni , and given now
lifo and vigor to the entire body. 100
