Chicago, June 1.?The new Chicago station of the Chicago and Northwestern -railway, one of the largest, most costly and most magnificent railroad passenger terminals in the world, was opened to traffic to-day. Costing nearly $25,000,000 and with a right of way area of . 37 acres, it is regarded as a marvel' in the way of modern railway station construction. The new station is located on west Madison street, convenient to the business and hotel section^, and af*?for? cimorin^ in PTPTV XVI UO la^iliuco itti eui/vt.v* , way to the old station north of the liver. The main building is a four-story structure of the early Italian renaispv ' sance style of architecture, with a lofty Doric portico at the enrance, - supported by a colonnade of six granite columns. Immediately back of this colonnade is the great vaulted I vestibule, 132 feet wide, 22 feet deep and 40 feet high. The main waiting-rom, which is the principal architectural feature of the station, is treated as a great Roman atrium, with a barrel vault roof. The total area of the building is 69,700 square feet, suffiicent to handle more than 250,000 passengers daily. The entire station throughout has marble floors and walls. The train shed is of sufficient length to accommodate the longest train. Engineer Meets Horrible Death.

Shot Playmate Accidentally.?Comrades Divided Money of Boy. New York, June 1.?Not until Carmine Piombino broke down today and said he fired the fatal shot were the police able to decide which of four boys was responsible for the death of John Miale. The MialeKboy's body, stuffed into < a bag, was found last night in the i cellar of a tenement in the Italian quarter. Four of his playmates from 10 to 14 years old, were arrested and while they admitted that he had been killed by one of the four, each claimed his own innocence. Piombino wept as he told his story, and dropping on his knees called upon the spirit of his dead friend to forgive him. He said that he had shot Johnny accidentally while they were struggling over money. After that the boys confessed that they took the dead boy's money, some $15, and spent it for candy and moving picture shows. Excusable. School children in Greater New York were required some time since to bring to their teachers vaccination and birth certificates. Frequent forgetfulness made one teacher impatient, and word went out that the certificates must be there on a certain morning. On that day an anxious little girl raised her hand the moment schol opened, and, on being told to speak, said tremblingly: "Please, teacher, don't get mad at me. I've forgot my excuse for being born."?Helen Combes. Erroneous View. Many are the stories told of Father Healy, the Irish priest, whose wit and wisdom were well matched. One day a vain young woman, who had exaggerated ideas of her own charms, told him she feared that she had a besetting sin. "And what is it?" asked Father Healy, his shrewd eyes having discerned that his neighbor at dinner wished to be questioned. - - * "It is this," she said, her eyes demurely cast down. "Every time I pass a looking-glass I think of my beauty." "Oh," said Father Healy, "that is no sin, my daughter, but perhaps it is a slight mistake, just a little error of judgment."?Youth's Companion. )mePi< lat other occup rns as a few hou 11?

Bishopville, June 1.?Fred Loyd, a young white man, about 20 years old, was lodged in jail here yesterday, charged with the burning of Mr. D. C. Jackson's house about two weeks ago. Mr. Jackson lived in one of Mr. W. M. McKenzie's houses at his brick mill, about three miles east of town, and he discovered the house in a blaze at about 12 o'clock at night. Two of his sons, Mr. W. R. Jackson and Albert Jackson was seriously burned, and the former is still in a critical condition. Young Loyd who claims to have been at Lynch's River fishing the night of the burning, was seen, it is stated, .by a responsible white man standing on a bridge in front of the Jackson house, just a short while before the fire. Conditions Were Embarrassing. In Texas the order of the probate court appointing an administrator ; (or administratrix as the case may be) usually reads: "It is ordered i that upon the applicant, John Doe, give bond and taking the oath prescribed by law, letters testamentary or of administration issue," etc. A very digpified, but somewhat 1 bashful, lawyer friend of mine, who by the way was a somewhat elderly i bachelor, had for a client a wealthy and recently bereaved widow. He also had an inexperienced stenographer. The order of the court appointing his client administratrix of her husband's estate had been dictated and was lying on the lawyer's desk, he not having had time to look it over. The client entered, and seeing that the paper concerned her business, picked it up and glanced over it. The attorney, who had been occupied with some papers, turned to her < wv +a ooa Vinotilir lav I JUv>C 1U lilliU iu oct uti uaotiij the paper down, while an unmistakable blush suffused her face, and she regarded him with a look of mingled confusion and indignation.

Henton committed suicide this morning at 7:30 o'clock in the Woodside mill village by shooting himself through the forehead, the ball passing through his brains and coming out the back of his head, killing him almost instantly. The shooting took place at the home of Mary Chandler, the girl, who, it is claimed, caused Henton to leave his wife and children several months ago. Rarlv this morning Henton came to the home of Mary Chandler in the village and said that he was going to shoot himself in her house. At this the father of the girl ordered Henton to leave his house, and Henton replied that he would not leave for he expected to die there and -was going to shoot himself in a few minutes. Mr. Chandler ran to the nearest phone and called Sheriff Poole, asking him to come and get Henton before he killed himself. While Mr. Chandler was phoning to the sheriff Henton went in the house and shot himself in the forehead with a 38-calibre Smith & Wesson revo.ver, the ball passing through his brains. Henton died almost inotonfl* O tUUbAJ Henton was for some time a merchant near the Woodside mill, hut last winter he sold his stock of goods, and left the city with Mary Chandler. The two went to Savannah, Ga., where they lived for several weeks. Henton's wife learning that her husband had eloped with another woman had a warrant issued for him, and he was brought back to this city about three weeks ago.' After remaining in jail for several days Henton was, on May 18, released on a $600 bond for his appearance at the next term of court. Until a few months ago Henton was regarded as being a Christian and upright man. He was a member of the church and had several small children. His family and friends are surprised at his conduct in the past few months and think that he was mentally deranged. He is a brother of the Henton who shot his wife near the Poe mill several weeks ago and threatened to kill himself when the sheriff attempted to arrest him. Coroner Batson was notified of the occurrence and held the inquest this morning over the dead body.? Greenville Piedmont.

Essen the home of the great Krapp gun works, is one of the most conspicuous examples of a one man town. It is practically just a hundred years old. In 1811, when the first crucible furnace for casting steel was set up by a poor hard working young man, Frederick Krupp, the total population of Essen was under 4,000. In 1891 it was 183,500, of which the Krupp contingent numbered about 84,000. This, and a great deal more, says Cassier's Magazine, is essentially the work of one man, and it is unparalleled in the history of industry. The corporation now owns iron and coal mines and over-4,000 houses. The products from Krupp's are varied. Compare this with the highly specialized condition of the industries in this country/ The Krupp's fame is chiefly associated with war materials, but all kinds of finished and unfinished materials for railroads, engines, mills and other industrial appliances are turned out in large and small quantities. The shops have been built at different dates and vary accordingly, but as a whole they possess in a marked degree that order and cleanliness which are the most distinguishing features of German factorries. This extends to the foundries, where one usually finds, dust, smoke and confusion. A specialty here is the casting of very large ingots of crucible steel. It is a remarkable sight and an object lesson in German methods. Ingots of eighty-five tons are cast, a feat which is not attempted in any other place. The steel is melted in small crucibles, which are carried by hand, and therefore contain no more than two men can lift. Scores of such crucibles go to the making of an ingot of considerable size, and they occupy many furnaces, which are ranged on both sides of the foundry, with the ingot mold in the centre. At the signal the furnaces are opened and the crucibles drawn out and seized by a small army of workmen who run with them down to the mold and pour them in. It is clear that to do the thing on a large scale perfect method in preparation and order in execution are necessary. The manoeuvre is carried out with military precision and % free I< " Ask I St I J I Your I > ; 1 ' ' r^l I A 1 , V'/x Friends 11 Trade i | mg II II 'I -?\nowvws II H\ to* 1 isyH IRNI will \\ _ \\\\ 4 " - mmai '"'Ik'<>'>? ) start with.- 4. ?|ljl ought in Tues- I 9.
