That would deprive Weaver of all chance to trade and dicker with the democrats, He wants the conventlon held at the same time and place as that of the democrats, and declares ho will 8o have it.

FIR New York Mail and Express, “With all the changes in the styles of hats the old regulation fireman’s hat holds i1s own,"” said dne cf the oldest dealers in ficemen's equipments In the clty to & re- porter, The place was a little store on a down.town cross strect, and the dealer was found basily at work attaching small red leather letters, reading ‘‘Rescne Hose,” to strips of white leather by means of glue, *‘The regulation fireman's hat to-day I the same shape aa it was long before we began business, and that Is twenty-five years ago,” he added. “‘They are lighter weight, but that is the only difference. We make them usually of black, but there are fire companies who prefer colored ones, and weo have made them in all colore. Just now we are filling an order for a lot in a blulsh-gray color. They sre for a company in Towanda, The chicf part of a fireman’s hat {s made of oak-fanned sole leather, fastened to a frameworkof strong wire,” ‘“What are the prices?" was asked. ““The usual price is from $450 to $5 each, but I have wmade fancy ones for presentation, purposes that cost as high a8 875, You may think 1t alittle strange, but we send a good many of them to South Amerlca. Another fact that may intereat the public ia that Cuba has_the lergest fire company In the world, Why, wo have made over two thousand equip- ments for Cuba and Havava. The rea- eon this company I8 the larges: known is because the whole fire departments there is called one company. 1t s known as Bomberos del Comercio No, 1. Thet hat is black and the front shield is the same, on which are the letters in red glving the namo of the company. These letters aro all cut by hand. There are very few manufacturers of this kind of goods in the country and only three or four in this clty. But there are many supply agents who travel about the country taking orders for anything a free company needs.” *‘But don't you make any of the hats of a shape different from the ‘regulation’ pattern?” *Oh, yes, & good many. Some of the companies wanting‘ to be pecallar ha ordered some of helmet shape, like policemen’s hats. But the style doesn’t last, for, after wearing them a short time, the companies usually come back and want the regular snape. By regalation we mean the hat used by both paid and volunteer departments, It has four large cones, and between these four smailer ones, For service no better hat is made, and on parade they are tho most becum- ing to firemen. Care Is always taken to have sufficlent ventilation without Injur- Ing the strength of the hat. For officors and presentatlons we frequently make themn with fancy emboseed rim and gold leather fronts, on which Is palnted a eteamer, hoee carriage, or truck, In these fancy hats the peculiarity is in the great number of cones, For instance, the ‘Prizs Chicago Tournament’ hat had 16 cones, and one that we had at the Centennial had 320 cones, the largest number ever known to have becn but in a ingle hat. “The fact Is,” added the speaker, *that the companles having the best equipments and who take most pride In their work are the volunteer companies. As for the volunteer organizatlons decreasing in number, as is generally suppcsed, the contrary fs the case, There are more volunteer companies in. exlstence now than formerly. Take 1t In the towns cloge to New York., Each one hasvolun- teer fire companies, and they are com- poeed of young bufiness men in some of the largest houses of this city. They make a sort of soctal club of thelr com- pany as well, and at the same time are xewpt from any jury duty.” What do belts cost?” “Ordinary ones come at $150 to $2. But I have prize ones for as high as $30 and $40, Tho white leather on the belts s the patent leather.

This edict has provoked much erlticiem, and several aathorities have reasoned sgaiast It, as well as made experiments to disprove the assumption on which It is based. Professor Bauschinger, of Maunich, recently made a long series of aotual trials with pillars of both cast and wrought Iron. Ho loaded them with the weights that they are usually allowed to bear in bulldings, and heated them first to 300° Oent., thento 600° Cent., and finally to a red heat,and let a stream of cold water play on them, exaotly as would be the case in a fire belng extin- guished by fire englnes, The cast iron Elll.nn were much damaged and cracked y this treatment, but continued to carry their loads quite safely, while those of wrought Iron were much bent before redness was reached, and so twisted when cold water was equirted onto them that they conld not carry thelr loads. The conclusion is that cast iron Is really far safer for builldings than wronght. Plllars of other materials were also ex- Eerfimnud with, vlz.: nataral etone, rick, and concrete. The latter stood the test best, reslsting a fire of three hours’ duration, Also plilars of ordinary brick stood very well, but granite, sand- stone, and other natural stones did not thow as much reslstance, If the ob- noxlous edict of the Berlin police has done no no other good, it seems at least to huve set & good many people to work on this important subjeo ——— The aching back, the sallow skin, the hollow eye, give way speedily before Hunt's Remedy, **Any physiclan who has used 1t will certify to the excellence of Hunt’s Remedy.

Preferring @ Crowded City to the Bonndless West and $1,000, Uncommuon Generosity Rudely De clined—A Sketch of Real Life. The capitallst was sltting in his library after dinner, having retired to that com- fortable apartment to enjoy the olgar with which he would not perfane the drawing-room atmosphere. To him presently camo his wife, a pleasant, ma- tronly woman, not far from his own age, and bandeomely dressed, as became the wife of a millionaire. There was noth- ing extraordinary sbout this couple. They wero slmply rlch Americans, qalet, unpretentlous people, who lived hand. somely, went to church on Sunday, and endeavored to bring up their children In & common sense Way. They were on excellent terms with eash other, being of domestlc tastes, and neither had ever contemplated proceed- ings In divorce. In short, they were, with the sole exception of belng some- what richer than the average, very cred- itable specimens of the great msjority of well-to-do Americans who do not get into the newspapers. The capitalist laid down his paper as the lady entered. lLieally, to judge from his eyes, one would have sald he was rather glad to sce her. As for hor, sho evidently had “‘something on her mind,” and her husband, for the time being, was of secondary importance, Sltting down she shaded her eyes from the fire. “John,” she eaid, “I am troubled about Margaret, the nurso,” “So am I,” said John. ““Was think- ing about her to-day.” *‘Is there anything that can b done to make her life pleasanter than it promlses to be after she is married?” “-Well, yes, I think there is,” and then he proceeded to detsila plan which 80 thoroughly coinclded with hls wife’s views that she actually-—4% as ehe was— went over to him and klssed him, ““That's » good boy,” she sald. *‘Mar- garet’s ‘man’ must soon be here for hls usual evening visit. 1'll glve orders to have him brought up, and you can talk to him,” After glving the necessary directions the went back to the sittlng room. Presently a heavy tread was heard In the passage way, and a big, sturdy man was ushered into the library by an excep- tlonally neat and tidy looklng mald. The capitalist arose and shook handa with his somewhat abashed vlsitor. ““Thank you, Margaret,” he said to the woman. “I'll ring presently. I want to talk a littlo businers with Mr. Brown. You may shut the door so that we shall not be interrupted.” Margaret blushingly retired, wonder- Ing greatly In her honest heart what the “‘business”’ might be, and resolved that she would make Tom tell her directly the interview was over *‘Weli, Brown,” began "the capltallat, after glving his visitor a chair, on which he eat as if it were the most uncomfort- able piece of furniture in exlatenca. ‘‘Well, Brown,” you know Margaret has been with us now fifteen years, and though we are sorry to part with_her, we are glad she is going to marry a man who will make a good husband. I don’t doubt you aro that kind of a man, but being a good husband fsn't everything. You want to get on in the world and make a good home for you both to pass a com- fortable old age In. Now, you're a bricklayer, I believe. I don’t suppose you get more than three dollars a day, and that only in businees jtimes, Mar- garet says you have rented rooms in a tenement house in avenue A. “That's all right, and I don’t doubt you will be very happy there for a whilo, but five years hence perhaps there will be three or four children, and you will still be earning three dollars a day part of the time and nothing at all the rest. You will, in all human probabllity, be a poor laboring manell your days. ~ Her life and your life will be spent in a crowded tenement; your children will at best have a poor chance to rlse in the world, and they will have no end of chances to fall—no matter whether they are boys or girls. “Now, I propose to give you a show to do better—to become a leading man in the town, to have a good home of your own, instead of paying rent in a tene- ment; to have fresh sir to breathe, and opportunities, if you are {ndustrious and enterprleing, to make a fortune, 1 will glve you and Margarot one thousand dol- fara if '—the capltallst paused, snd Brown looked up amezed; he had never thought of owning so much morey at once, and the dea dazzled him—*If yon will go out west to a place I know of and build your- self & houso and get a quarter section of here s plenty of work for good mechanics there, at higher wages than you can get here, and you will see a hun- dred ways in which you can save and make investments which will be sure to yleld you agood return, *‘Just thing of it. unhealthfal tenement, There, a house of your own under the blue eky.

But when the question was })nt direct he hesitated, shufiled with his leot uneasily, and at length managed to ny: “Well, It's kind o suddin like, 1'd like to talk It over with Margaret before giving an answer, It’s very good o’ you all the same,” “That's all right, Brown, Talk it over a8 much as you like till the wedding day, and then let me know your declsion, The thousand dollars ehall ”ba ready for Hore a crowded edding and Margaret and her beau waited en thelr would-be benefactor, and with thelr shamefaced- ness made known their determination to stay in the city. . * * ik B * The conversation, substantially as re- ported, actually took place some six yesrs 8go.

His mother hushed him up the best shecould, and several times he slappad her face and kicked her shins and got off without even a pinch.

With one twist and two motions he was seized, whirled over a pair ot knees, and before he could squawk once the spanking ma- chine bagan its work. If ever & boy of seven was neatly wound up and the ugly teken out of him inslde of sixty seconds the work was no more complete than in this case, “‘Thore!” said the spanker as he up- ended the child and placed him on a seat, “you’ll feel better—a heap better.
