The Electrical Wisard to Establish an Immense Plant on Long Island, One of the most important under- takings ever entered upon in Long Island is the establishment of the power and signal plant of Nikola Tes- la, the Austrian electrical wizard of worldwide fame. Mr, Tesla has pur- chased about 1,500 acres of land near Warden Clyffe, comprising a large stretch of hills and valleys, wooded bluff and fine beach, where he pro- poses to establish his great works from which he will place himself in communication with the most dis- tant parts of the civilized world. NOT. “EXECUTIVE MANSION.” President Roosevelt Decides That the Oficial Name of His Home Shall Be the “White House.” President Roosevelt has taken 6 sew departure which will startle the | old-timers in Washington, but which, at the same time, will do away with the pedantic name which has always grated on the ears. The “executive mansion” has been doomed and the “white house” has officially taken its place. For years all the presidential President Roosevelt's first social cumstances some 45 “executive man- sions” in this country, one in each state, but only one “white house.” It is the desire to perpetuate the name officially, which is histor‘eally ind conventionally correct, that has induced Mr. Roosevelt to make this change, Some of the old-timers in Washing: ton, particularly those who pride themselves on their pedigree and love the lordly sound of the word “man- sion,” are objecting already to the in- novation, but the “plain people.” or those who have heard of the change, like it and commend the president for the unflinching Americanism of the whole proceeding. ‘OPFOSED TO ALTERATIONS. President Roosevelt Does Not Think the White House Too Small for His Needs, President Roosevelt has put a damp- er onth itation for the enlargement of the white house, It has been con- tended for some time that the edifice, structed years as. is too small to accommodate the president's family and furnish sufficient space for the offi- functions incumbent upon the ef magistrate, The movement to dd wings and otherwise remodel the Listoric building has reached congress severa, times, and last year the en- vineer officer im charge of the public vuilcings and grounds had construct: ed a model embodying plans which he considered desirable, Charles A. Moore, secretary of the senate committee on the District of Columbia, called upon the president the other day to explain what Mr, Durnham, of Chieago, and his asso- ‘ate architects are doing te beautify \iashington, and incidentally men- iioned the proposed extension of the white house, The president promptly informed him that the building suited im, both as a residence and as an of- fice, and that he would oppose any al- terations, It developed that President McKiniey was not on!y opposed to the remodeling of the building, but fa- vored the construction of a residence for the president, the white house to be used only for an office and for cere- monies of state.

Dr. Koldevey has sent to Berlin a further report about the progress of tine piece of architecture. result shows a beautiful design. The design is now on the way to Ger- many. In the courtyard were also found several bricks, evidently part of a mosaic pavement, the design of which was composed of enamels and glass- raised work, as well as coffins, coins, fragments of stone inscriptions, and a broad slab, on which were depicted a picture of the Babylonian idea of hell. Dr. Koldevey considers the recent finds as fully proving that this part of the city contained what was doubt- less the finest of the Babylonian pal- aces, and consequently the palace of Nebuchadnezzar. Meanwhile excavations are being carried on in the business quarter of old Babylon, where in 1874 the en- tire business documents of the Baby- lonish firm “Egibi & Son”—possibly the oldest house of business “of which the world holds record,” to use Tennyson's phrase—were dug out by Arabians. These documents—unpaid bills, day books, ledgers, ete.—were made of hardened clay, and the won- der is that they had not crumbled away during the course of the cen- turies. In one case it is clear that the unpaid bills are now only of his- toric interest, for the Babylonian legal period of limitation must have long expired, A BOLD MARINER, INDEED, Stops an Ocean Liner in Midocean in Order to Mail a Letter te His Wife, To receive ‘two letters which a wan- dering mariner wished to send to his wife, the Auguste Victoria was stopped at sea while going at a 19-knot clip. When it reached its dock the other day Capt. Schwannberger called a mes- senger and had the letters mailed in the nearest better box. Both were to women in Halifax, N. S., one being to Mrs. Henri Stanton. “I never knew of such nerve as that of the master of the fishing smack that stopped us to put those letters aboard on October 2,” the captain said. “We were a day late, and the weather was rough when the lookout discovered a bark flying a string of signals, It wasa mile away. We slowed down and sent out the launch with six men under a lieutenant. Successor to Li Hung Chang is Appointed. Pekin; Nov. 8—The special edict has arrived here appointing Yuan Shi Kai, Governor of Shan-Tung Province, to be Governor of the Province of Chi-Li, and appointing Wang Wen Shao, who is viee-presi- dent of the Foreign Office and amem- ber of the Cabinet, tu succeed Li Hung Chang as plenipotentiary.

LIS MADE A MARQUIS; ALSO GETS NEW NAME, Pekin, Nov. 8.—An imperial edict crates the late Earl Li Hung Chang & Marquis, and bestows on him the new name of Li Wen Chung, by which he will be known in history. SHOOK NUN’S HAND, THEN SHOT HER. Discharged Janitor Attempted to Kill Sister Superior. New York, Nov. 8.—Lakewood’s academy of St. Mary of the Lake in New Jersey, was the scene of an at- tempted murder this morning. John Lawler, crazed by drink and thoughts of revenge, twice shot Sis- ter Superior Agnes, head of that in- stitution. To-night the victim is physically comfortable, but nervous from the shock, and the criminal lies in the little jail at Tome River. Both bullets took effect. One has been extracted. The school was thrown into a panic. Lawler was the janitor and was in the habit of going on sprees, and for this he was paid in full yesterday and discharged. He culled tu say good- by to the sister superior, and imme- diately after shaking her hand fired on her. ROWAN OUGHT TO KNOW. rae e ¥.J. TYGARD, President. THE BATES COUNTY afternoon.

The Association of the Bar of the City of New York has just adopted a memorial on the death of President McKinley. In part it says: “Asa mem- ber of the profession, especially charged with the administration of justice, we declare our conviction, in view of the tragic occurrence, which we so deeply deplore, that never in the history of this nation has it been of more vital importance that just laws be enacted and impartially and firmly executed; that with the preservation of free speech and wholesome criticism of public measures and methods of public administration, reckless agita- tion and the glorification of lawless violenee be repressed Naval Railroad Engine, A railroad engine is now nearing completion in the North Pacific Coast Railroad company's machine shops at Sausalito, Cal., which, if it half aceom- plishes the sanguine hopes and predic- tions of its inventor, will result in a radical revolution in the construction of locomotives. This new mechanical prodigy differs from other engines in that it has the engineer's and-fireman’s cabs out in front, instead of the rear of the boiler, thus affording the men Embrace, nadian handed over those letters, In. Miss Carrie Hugin, of Janesville, Wis., was so tightly hugged by het lover the other evening that the serv- ices of a local physician were neces- sary to release her overlapped ribs. The young woman is well known and popular here and her case has at- tracted considerable attention from a medical standpoint. Miss Hugin and her lover had been out walking. On reaching home they spent considerable time talking on the shady porch. This was at ten o’elock in the evening. Before his departure for home the strong admirer grasped his sweetheart in his arms and with mighty force em- braced her. Miss Hugin was unable to sleep that night on account of exces- sive pains in her side, and in the morn- ing she consulted a physician, who found that her lower ribs had become interlocked. Close examination failed to reveal any fractures. Miss Hugin after considerable hesitation and:ques- tioning revealed the cause of her in- jury. Fiad Smoke Co ption Cure, The smoke from forest leaves is now declared to be a cure for con- sumption, and as an experiment is be- ing tried in Evansville, Ind. The members of the board of health pro- nounce it a success. The county has set aside money to help carry on the experiments, and these will be made upon consumptives in the poor in- firmary. The discoverer of the new remedy is Dr. Peckinpaugh, of Mount Vernon, Ind. The treatment consists of inhalation by the patient of the fumes or smoke from the burning of @ mixture of various kinds of forest leaves. public. The full details are not made It is claimed that the fumes kill the bacilli in the lungs. ~—“Teatatng Boys to Be Gardeners.

Advices from Stockholm state that the time is not far distant when the railroads of Sweden will be operated by electricity. As is well known, Sweden possesses “much water power in the falls and rapids of her rivers, and for a long time the idea has prevailed to utilize their power in a greater meas- ure than heretofore, especially for railroads. One of the foremost engineers of Sweden has prepared an estimate of power required to operate all the Swedish railroads, comprising about 7,500 miles, and he calculates it at 32,- 000 horse power, which could be pro- cured easily. 2 It is his plan to erect 12 central sta- tions of 3,000 horse power each, dis- tributed over the country. The cost would be about 40,000,000 of Swedish crowns (about $10,000,000) which amount, in consequence of the result- ing decrease of operating expenses, would be a good investment. Study of Grape Culture. Experiments are being conducted by the department of agriculture with a view to ascertaining the cause of the failure of European grapes, of the Malga, Tokay, Rhineland and Burgundy types, to thrive in the United States east of the Rocky mountains. Vines of the varieties above mentioned are being grafted on Concord, Niagara and other native stocks, and these are now being cul- tivated undér various conditions of shelter and humidity with a view to Says Suppression of Filipinos Be Hard and Endless Task. Atchison, Kan., Nov. 7.—Mrs. A 8. Rowan of Atchison, has received a letter from her husband, Captain Rowan, who is serving on the island of Bohol, in the Philippines, in which he writes discouragingly of the war there, saying the insurgents are very active and dangerous. He says. it seems a hard and endless task to subdue them. Mrs. Rowan had want- ed to go and visit her husband, but he writes that it is entirely out of the question, as it would be too dan- gerous. In the Spanish war Capt. Roan became famous as “the man who carried the message to Garcia.” Mail Bag Robbed. Guthrie, 0. T., Nov. 4.—The fact that a mail bag had been robbed of $2,000 did not become known until this morning, when Cashier Letson, ofthe Bank of Enid, 0. T., became suspicious and refused. to honor a draft on the First National bank of Kansas City. An investigation fol- lowed and disclosed the fact that, on October 31, the mail bag from La- homa, O.
