CHICAGO’S ENERGY.

Winter’s Storms and Jack Frost’s Reign Can Not Repress It. The Ashland block, a structure of steel, stone and tarra cotta, at the comer of Randolph and Clark streets, close to the City Hall, seventeen shines in height, Was built tju an area of 140 feet by 80 feet in midwinter, and work was continued day and night by relays of men, strong arc electric lights being used by by night. Artificial heat was furnished by 100 Salamander stoves to enable the builders and masons to work at that season of the year, and protection from the cold winds was given by several hundred yards of thick canvas. The skeleton of steel for each floor was first erected, each column, girder and rafter being lifted and placed in position by steam power. These were riveted wvth red-hot rivets, and, as the stories rose, they were filled in with square blocks of terracotta and brick. On December 6, 1892, six floors were completed, and the steel skeleton for the next six stories was for the most part placed. On December 19 ten floors were completed,' and the shell for three more stories was mostly in posision. Thus the entire construction of four floors of a building 140x90 feet, divided into numerous rooms, was solidly built in thirteen days, or one floor in three -and one-quarter - days. About 60 iron and steel workers, 100 brick masons and 35 terracotta setters were continually at work. The enormous quantity of iron and steel used in this new mode of construction, which was only tried six years ago, has created quite a new industry, and the employes have already their organization under the term architectural iron-workers. Steel has now almost entirely taken the place of iron, of which the first few of these tali' buildings were constructed. The foundations are tiers of steel rails, imbedded in concrete, t.he beams stretching ten or twelve feet under the street. This plan was found necessary on account of the nature of the soil, so as to bear the great imposed weight. These beams are made at the Illinois Steel Works or come from Pennsylvania. This new method of buildiilg is said to be lighter and stronger than the old system and to be absolutely fireproof. The greatest variation in the plumb line from base to top of these tall buildings has been found not to exceed half an inch.

A SMALL CAPITAL.

But It Was Big Enough to Start a Widow in Life. Boston Advertiser. Mrs. K. was a widow with three children. One of them died; another, a daughter, married a man who left her, so that the mother had to pro vide for the grandchild, as well as her own family. This was difficult, and soon the stock of supplies got low and there was no money in the house, on which, also, a mortgage had to be met. One day the son, a schoolboy, came in to say that Miss J„ a neighbor, rather noted for being “close," had given him five cents for closing her cellar door. This five cents seems to have been the only capital of the widow and her little family, though I suppose she might have obtained more had she made her condition known to her prosperous neighbors. That would have injured the story, howover, and I am glad that she did not get the loan, but invested her son’s earnings in popcorn, as she by inspiration did. With some molasses she had left in the jng, the corn was soon made into fifteen of those sticky but enticing cornballs which have coaxed many a copper out of a schoolboy’s pocket. The town school was close by, and before noon they were all sold for a cent apiece, and the little capital trebled, “Quick returns and large profits” was the maxim of this merchant, which seems to have worked well in this instance; after four years of trade in the village of Plymouth, at the old stand, Mrs. K. is now the owner of her own house, without a mortgage; has money in the bank; has educated her children, (her grandson is now fourteeu years old), and has very much increased the variety of her merchandise.

The county of Fresno, Cal., boasts of a flume fifty-two miles long, built of timber throughout and designed for conveying lumber from the place of felling in the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the plains below. In section the flume is V shaped, the angle being 90 degress; the V is 21 inches deep and for the most part 3 feet 7 inches across the top, this width being increased, however, at various points, where a decrease in the grade necessitates a larger volume of water to carry the timber, the lower terminus being 5 feet 4 inches wide by 31 inches deep. The main supply of water is received from a lake near its head, but four additional feeders are led into it at different points along its length. The sides of the flume are constructed of H inch boards, and the structure is carried on trestle work for nearly the whole length, these trestles being as many as 130 feet high in some of the deep canons crossed by the flume. The steepest grade is one of 1,200 feet to the mile, maintained for about 3,000 feet.

Washington Star, “Speaking about counterfeiting and the ability of the average man to detect spurious bills,” said a treasury official, “what security is there when the Treasurer of the United States is himself deceived and accepts had money? Yet this frequently happens, and only this, month no less than three bills were received by the treasurer and their spuriousness discovered In the redemption department. Two were $2 bills and it would appear that these bills are the most expertly counterfeited. They wereMetected by one of the ladies employed in the redemption department and she is probably the most expert handler of money In the world. One bill was proved spurious by the fact that the initial “T” of the name ‘T. E. Spinner’ was the sixteenth of an inch to the right from being directly under the ‘D’ of the letters ‘D. C.’ Well, when counterfeiting has arrived at such a stage oh expertness it becomes almost a matter of hazard to accept any bills:” Mr. Chas. Carman, from Petersburg, HI., writes; I know Salvation Oli to be a vory good remedy for neuralgia, rheumatism,burns, toothache and cuts.
