II s first trip on the elevator will be
puv.r than it is now possime 10 tae.
It will land him on the first "jailer)
Iwhtre he will find solar climate and
scenery
The marvelous natural phenomena
of the frozen north will be represented.
The scene wijl be laid on the site of
the north pole. The midnight sun
ft ill light it. There will be stuffed po-
lar bears seals icicles iceburgs a
reindeer and an Esquimaux sleigh
with its pack ol dogs. It is probable
there are no Esquimaux near the pole
hut that is only an apparent inconsis
tency as various Artie regions are rep-
resented. Cold beer and teed drinks
not always easy to obtain in Paris will
he pravtdeU The low temperature
will of course be produced by artift
cial means
The light throughout the shaft will
be electrical. It is proposed to ven
tilate it thoroughly from the top to
bottom by an elaborate mechanism.
On the next and second gallery the
visitor will find a startling contrast.
The gallery and adjacent chambers ate
to be devoted to the amusements of al
nations. This will be a most catholic
gathering
The third gallery will be given up to
mokcrs Here it will be possible to
use tobacco in all the principal ways
knpwn tp the nations of the earth and
it is not probable that French public
morality will forbid indulgence in
opium.
At any rate you will be able to
moke cigan cigarettes and pipes;
Virginian tobneco Cuban tobacco
MexicaiOobacco Drnzilim tobacco
Turkish tobacco and many other
kinds. It is to be hoped that this
scheme will have the effect of elevat-
ing French taste in tobacco.
Rooms will be furnished appropri-
ately for every form of indulgence.
lie who wishes to try the Persian nar-
gilch and inhale the mild funics of
I.atakieh after they have been cooled
by rose scented water may do so
seated on oriental cushions.
The fourth gallery will lead to a sc-
ries of restaurants of different nations.
A bewildering variety of foods will be
served from the pie of North America
to the edible dogs and birds' nests of
China. Do not think this reference to
pie a stale witicism for it is a dish
practically unknown to the Ercnch
and will be a revelation to them.
About the fifth gallery there will be
an exhibition of mining industries
Reproduction? of characteristic por-
tions of lead coal iron silver and
other mines will be constructed. The
tunnels pockets and other peculiari-
ties of deep mines will enable the de-
signers to produce some very curious
efferts
The sixth stopping olace in this
journey of wonders will bring you to
the bottom of the sea though not to
the bottom of the pit. The floor will
be strewn with sand studded with
rocks and coral reefs. It will be an
accurate reproduction of a portion of
the sea's bottom.
By a skillful coloring of the air and
other ingenious devices it will be
sought to produce on the visitor the
illusion that he is walking not only at
the bottom of the sea but in the wa-
ter. Huge and strange fishes sus-
pended from above will pass over his
head. The devilfish the sei elephant
and the manatee will afright him Div-
ers in full costume at work among
sponges and coral rtefs will it is
thought add greatly in producing die
illusion ot being under the sea
From this you will decend to a re-
gion of mineral springs which will un-
doubtedly be a very attractive and re-
freshing place.
The natural and gradual increase of
temperature will be felt in the central
shaft all the way down but in the ad-
joining chambers it mil be moderated
according to convenience or the eflect
to be produced. ' '
At the bottom however it is intend-
ed to give visitors an example of the
tunperaiure normally prevailing at ihe
depth of que mile below the eatih's
suriace. It is expected that this will
equal that ol the equator at midsum-
mer. Tropical scenery will be reproduced
on an elborate stale. The palm
patches ol jungles orchards and many
sensational features of equatorial vege-
t.nion will flourish. The ioology ot
the same latitude will be represented
by tigers p)thons huge butterflies par-
rots and other highly colored crea-
tures. A FREi EDUCATION

Golden Gate ltand. That nnltnrit had

inate between till shades of bound de-
tected tho prosecco oi Ills unbidden

nut ti trut). Tho trup did its work.
Musie-lovlng badger Was nipped by
tho claws and then Mr. Coggin after
nn extonslvo wrcstlo with mi impro-
vised riiitii and an iron ash barrel suc
ceeded in barreling his nre-y. After-
ward it was an easy matter to conflno
his catch in a cage of stout trellis
wiro nnd placo it in tho Uituhen.
That kitchen is now tho center ot at-
traction in tho neighborhood. People
call nil day by scores to stay and
speculato on the strango animal.
It is a big badger and a pretty one.
It is a foot broad and about thirty
inches long. Its fur Is soft gray
finely marked on tho under sido With
white. A white btrcak runs from tho
top of its head up toward its queer
pointed nose. Its eyes are bright as
diamonds.
Thnre in captivity in tho kitchen it
gamely defies tho whole circle of
critics. It hisses and growls and
makes littlo darts and rushes in tho
direction of any supposed assailant
It refuses to eat or make friends and
is just as mad as a "pug" in chancery.
Mr. Ooggin is going to try his cor-
net upen him at close range and if
that fails ho knows ho cannot bo
tamed."

"I am looking." said tho dusty
travel-stained man with the valise
"for an old friend of mino who used
to livo on this street"
"What's his name?" inquired tho
policeman leaning against the lamp-
post "Dobbin."
"No man of that name living along
here."
"1J0 I reckon not" said the dusty
trave.er looking in a perplexed way I
at a memorandum in his hand and I
then at the row of stately duellings
in front of him: "but he used to livo !
in a one-story cottage right w here that
big stone front stands." I
"Was he a short heavy man with a
bald head and one leg a littlo shorter 1
than the otherV"
"Yes that's the man. Where ho
now?"
"Always walked with his hands be-
hind him and wore chin whisker-.?"
"That describes him exactlv." I
" hy ho got a street-paving con-
tract three or four years ago and he's
worth 100000." ' ' j
"Good for Dobbin! What became
of him? Is he in Europe?'
"Xo" answere i the policeman

heat of midsummer strange as it may
appear. I suppose the reason of it is
that tho heat hero is more mblst than
that of the tropics nnd. us It were of
iv different character. Whatever
mortality occurs among our animals
during a heated term is mostly among
tho tropical animals especially tho
African. In hot weather I hnvo
watched the polar bear go Into his

In tho shade extended himself in tho
direct rays of tho sun where tho water
on his skin would evaporate. ( Ho
found out for himself I suppose that
evaporation causes a lower tempera-
ture. Again it is somewhat astonish-
ing at first that our polar bear should
nuffcr sometimes as he does from tho
severe cold of the winter. I have seen
him shivering on ono of those bitterly
cold days when the sky was overla-
den and the air full of moisture. The
moisturo was evidently what affected
him. In tho arctic regions it is so
cold tliat tho moisture is frozen out

SPOILED
CAT CONCERT
Electricity Kmplovo.l With SIrii il I uc
ce8 on a Kenre.
A Brooklyn electrician has been an-
noyed for several weeks by cat con-
certs in his baek yard. He lives in
Kosciusko street and every night tho
cats ranged themselves on tlie back
fence and meowed in chorus. Tho
leading tenor in the company was a
monster with a falsetto voice of great
range and power. He was particularly
strong in roulade and cadenza and
some of his fortomento passages were
models in expre sin.
Hut the concerts became monoto-
nous after awhile and the electrician
determined to .tnp them. He placed
n thin steel p'.tte on the top of tha
fence and o.nneeted it with a motoi
in the kitchen. "He permitted the .
plate to remain on me lence lor uiree
nights until the big tenor hail become
accustomed to sitting on it- The plate
was a great .mprovement as a ssat
over tho rnged eve of thi fence.
iBut ono moonlic'it night last week
the Maltese soprano assoluta the
idierry-colored mezzo. ami the
bewhiskered tenor robusto were
kinging a nii.o arrangement cf
"Maria. Who -e Art Thou?"
The tonor had reached a sustained
passage surcharged with love and had
risen on his hind legs to give freer ex-
pression to it when the current was
turned on. The sust-ined passage
was cut in two as if with a cleaver. It
ended in a most discordant squawk as
the tenor fell off the fence upon his
buck only to bound into the air like a
bull and disappear over the fence and
down the street like a black cornet.
