A gre in the outskirts of the city had taken two of the three engine companies and only the remaining company respond- ed to the alarm. On the first floor of the bufiding is the store of the East St. Louis Provision & Packing Co. Qn the second floor are the offices of the Prudential Life Insurance Co., the offices of several physicians and the rooms The rooms occupied by the Oakes family are in the rear. Oakes works at night, and he and his family, consisting of his wife and five children, were as:eep in the rooms at the rear of the second floor when the fire broke out. Supposing that everyone in the building was awake, those working on the second floor descended without giving the alarm. It was not until the first floor was in flames and the engine company had ar- rived that Oakes was awakened by the smoke ard noise. With a shout Oakes awoke his family. Without waiting to: dress,and allowing them only time to wrap blankets around them, he hurried them to the rear of. the puilding, where a stairway leads from the second story to the ground. The stairway, with the woodwork of the bullding arount it, was in flames. Down the tottering stairs the wife and children ran. Oakes went last of all. As Oakes: reached the ground, the stair- way, which had swayed and cracked as he descended, fell in a blazing heap. The fire was placed un@er contrwl by the efforts of the departm« cht, with the ftrame- wark. of the buliding. which is a strongly built two-story structure, intact.

It is said that when he was a boy he once met himself in the dark and became so fright- ened that his hair would never lie down again. He was called “Old ‘Hickory,”’ not because he was such a tough proposition to his enemies, but on account of the kind of shirt he wore.. Though awkward in ap- pearance, Jacksen could wear a dress suit when occasion demanded, and was a great lady-killer. He was also a man-killer, and it is stated on reliable auhtority that he led He never knifed a man's po- litical ambitions, but he had no hesitancy about using a blade on his person. Jack- son was the greatest Indian fighter that ever lived, which fact causes many. to re- gret that he died before the Butler tribe in St. Louis sprang to life. He was never of a retiring disposition, and held onto the presidency for two terms. It was a con- ditfon, and not a theory, by which he was confronted. He lived in Tennessee, and is said to have been the first one to gpell the name of that state “10 E C."" In fact, that was the only way he could have spelled it, for, while Jackson was long on expletives, he was mighty short on orthography. He lived near Nashvilie, and that city derived its name from the way Jackson gnashed his teeth when he ‘few into a rage. His banking system was not as solid as that of Monte Carlo, and the result was that it went broke. Jackson was the originator of the strenuous life, but he usually winged a man, instead of a cub catamount. ‘‘Yes,’’ remarked the dentist to a fellow- passenger, ‘‘the twentieth century has cut its first tooth.” ‘Will “Fighting Bob’’ Evans swear off us- ing that title again until he shall have earned it? MY LITTLE BEN. AUBURN 389, WOMEN’S PRISON. ()*s day, some years ago, his moth- er left him at my home for mother to care for, promising to return that night and get him. But, sad to say, she never returned, and so little Ben lived on to the end of his short life with us. He was a dear, sweet lttle lad of 6 summers. He had golden curls and large blue eyes, througa which shone his sinless baby soul. Everyone loved him, and well they might, for e was so thoughtless of self and would run any and everywhere for any- one and was always so willing to help about the house that most of our friends called him “Little Willing.’’ But I called him my Ben, and I felt almost as though he was really mine. I was not very oi:d myself at the time he first entered our lives, but he always referred to me as “Mom, ’ meaning mother. As I look back a few vears I can see his sweet, childish face, all smiles, for he never was unhappy, asking to help me clean up the house, He played only when he was sure I did not need his aid. Many times I have sent him to places a long ways from home, which I would not have done only he was always so anxious to go. He had one pet, a smal] white dog, Tippy. by name, an he always fed him. ‘To save ‘oo trouble,’’ he’d say. Dear little tallow, if he had realized how I loved 1im he would have known it was a pl. asure for me to do anything for him or his. Well, time passed on, and one day, much against my will, I let him go-to t ‘e mar- ket for me. On his way he was thrown under a trolley car and was brought home terribly mangled. He was still smiling, even though he was suffering terribly. 1 laid him on my bed and bent over the dear little form. knew he would leave me soon and my heart was almost breaking. He seemed to understand, too, that he was going away. for he asked me to bend down and then whispered in my ear: **Mom, please feed Tippy... if I doo away. rou won't fordet him, Mom”? He said little after that, and I called mother to kiss him good-by. After she had left him. for she could not bear to see him suffer, he said, hardly above a whisper, “Dear Mom, I loves ‘00 80 berry much. Kiss your Ben dood-by.’ Yes. indeed, my Ben he was. I kissed his baby lips, once, twice, and just then he closed his ‘peautiful blue eyes forever.— Sing Sing Star of Hope, published by the convicts tnt the state penitentiary. “BISHOP OF THE BLUBJACKETS.” Every English sailor and many belonging to other countries will be pleased to hear that Glasgow University has conferred the degree © doctor of laws On Miss A Weston. ng ago the sailors had Ez ven her two titles, “Mother Weston” and “bish- op of the bluejackets.”’ indeed, the unlver- ott honor comes as the result of work which earned for — by hangs the more af- fectionate titles. in life she founded in Devonport Ry + + nown as “The Sall- Rest,”’ a place where r Jack may d.as soon as he lands, clean and cheap ing, medicine, books and amusement.

He was caught recently in a swamp in southern Texas, and weighed 156 pounds. His length was 6 feet 4 inches; length of shell, 30 inches; girth, 62 inches; length of tail, 22 inches; measure- ment around the head, 27 inches; around the neck, 22 inches: around tall at the root, 18 inches.

Therefore, never attempt to play that which is beyond you. If you cannot per- form a piece without apparent effort, don’t attempt to have your playing judged by the standard of that composition. Alwavs economize your force when p oo ing. Much force is often cnnapeneasile wasted thereby producing hard and un- pleasant tones. t your touch be clear and crisp, never sluggish. Do not let @&namentation bewillder you but seek out the song of each plece and sing it. Very often the student loses the entire mean'ng of the composition because of his inability to separate the real theme sreue the more flowery sections of the piece. In grading your tone from planissimo to fortissimo you must follow both the in- structions of the composer and your own judgment. In rns ae up the climax of either a simp!¢ or 2 ifficult composition it is neces- sery to do more than produce a creat volume of sound. The climax should be reached, in most cases gradually, and with cumulative force. This depends. of course, on the character of the composition, but most students seem to think that by sud- denly increas'ng the volume of sound to eS highest point they have accomplished the desired effect. Phrase for Yourself. It is hard to lay down any rules as to proper phrasing on the piano. The student must first yt the piece thorougnly and he wil) then phrase it according to his con- ception as to how it should be rendered. think that in these five lessons I have touched on all the important points of piano playing. If the student will follow the advice given he will soon find an amount of improvement in his work that will spur him on to further efforts. sincit @ remember that the object in laying a piece is not to impress the hearer ait how difficult it is, but with its beauty. To do this practice faithfully, but do not over-practice. Always use your brain at the same time that you are using your fingers. Before playing a plece try to get a mental picfure of it by reading it through thor- oughly. Do mot develop expense of the left, or the t hand at the expense of the right. Develop the last two fingers of both: hands because they are naturally the weakest. Learn to accustom yourself to an easy and graceful position at the piano and hold your hands in such a way that you can play without effort or strain. Learn to appreciate the music you are playing and play it so that the hearer will —. appreciate it. while doing these take plenty of eset physical exercise. rour right pand at the MUSICAL. 14 Words or Less, 20 Cents.
