It Is in the Tower of the Philadelphia City Han. A novel diversion is about to be in- Stituted at the Philadelphia city hall. Within a few weeks this noble pile, already distinguished as b&ing the highest municipal building in the world, will contain, according to the Press, the highest continuous stair- way in the world, and tourists who have hitherto boasted of their mus- cular ability in climbing’ the stone steps of the Bunker Hill monument at Charlestown, the Washington monu- ment or the monument to Gen. Brock, hear Queenstown, Ont., will tell their friends of their feat in ascending the 598 steps which lead from the seventh floor of the city hall of Philadelphia to the landing about the feet of Wil- liam Penn. Tower-climbing is one of the fads of tourists. Hitkerto the Burker Hill monument, with its 400- odd stone stcps, and the Washington mo: nt, which has a few more, have representeds the acme of oppor- tunity for tests of physical endurance. Ascent or deseent ef these steps has been boasted of, and though both so cramp the muscles of the leg that the climber for an hour afterward is hard- ly able to walk upright, the distinction has the requited pain. The building commisison, adds the Philadelphia Press, is pushing forward the work on the tower stairway, and within two months it is expected that it will be in Teadiness for climbers. It will extend from the seventh to the sixteenth floor and will contain just 598 steps of. iron arranged about a square, central shaft, in which will ren an electric elevator. To: reach the tower stairway the climber may mount the 245 granite Stairs in the hanging stairways at the northern end of the building, thus making a total climb of 743 steps. Residents Vie with One Another in Making Them Presentabie. Bicyclists who have ridden much on the asphalt streets of German cities say that the tendency to “side slip” is there much less marked than on sim- ilar pavements in this country. The explanstion of this fact may possibly lie in tke statement which is made by the Amefican consul at Breslau that the asphalt streets in that city are regularly washed, the purpose of the washing being to remove the slime which the asphalt seems to leave and to keep the street from being slippery. The washing has the further effect of preserving and hardening the asphalt. The care taken of the asphalt by. the city authorities contrasts strongly with the methods usually adopted in the United States. For instance, the space in front of the consulate is di- vided into four squares, wh'eh are in charge of one man. After leaning the streets early in the morning he wheels out a barrow load of very fine, sharp sand and scatters it lightly over the streets to prevent slipping. On rainy days the process is repzated sev- eral times. Once a week the whole street is sluiced and thoroughly washed with sprinkiing carts. These are followed by ample roller brushes, which sweep the water and slime into the gutter, whence it is carted away. After this the man who has charge of the street comes along with his wheel- barrow and sand sprinkler. In spring or autumn, when the streets are often sloppy and wet, the washing is done several times during the week. Tortured Spanish Prisoners, Ia view of the inquiry which it is understood has been granted by the Spanish government into the charges of torturing prisoners in the casemates of Montjuich, in Spain, it may be of interest to set cut some of the items in the indictment made against the authorities. It is said, in the first place, that a reward of 10,000 pesetas was offered to any jail official who could extert an avowal of guilty from a prisoner. Acting under this stimu- lus the jailers are stated to have forced the wretched creatures under their control to run round their cells day and night for eighty hours at a stretch, heavy whips being used to keep the victims awake. The officials are also sa'd to have deprived them of all food save salt stock fish and ardent spirits, confession being the. price of a glass of water! Not a few paid it, slaked their thirst, and, it is contend- ed, were summarily shot. It is further alleged that wedges were driven under the nails of the prisoners with ham- mers and allowed to remain until the nails sloughed away. Even more hor- rible mutilations are stated not to have been uncommon. One of the most cruel devices was, it is affirmed, a machine like a diver’s helmet, fitted with a tube allowing the victim to breathe, while a screw slowly the sides and top, thus produc- ing inconceivable agony. One pris- oner, Moras, is stated to have under- gone this torture more than once, and to have been driven mad by it. Surnames in Ireland. One of the curiosities of recent philo- logical literature is the appendix to the 1893 report of the Britich registrar- general, which bears the suggestive ti- tle, “Surnames in Irelard.” From that compilation one who has an eye for the curious may glean facts an@ figures for a most interesting article. For in- stance it is shown that the most com- mon name on thé Emerald Isle is Mur- phy, the number of persons, great and small, who bear the cognomen being 62,600. The following come next in or- der of frequency: Kelly, 55,900; Sulli- van, 43,600; Walsh, 41,700; Smith, 37,000; O’Brien, 33,400; Byrne, 33,200; Ryan, 32,000; Connor, 31,200; O'Neil, 29,110, and Reilly, 29,000. As an extra precaution every cooking school should be run in connection with an eating school. compressed’ = THE =.
