cost proportionately more. A 75 foe
pole might cost, set up ready for us<
fl.V). Flng|H>Ies for building* are soim
times made up to 80 feet in length, bu
not often.
"A 50 foot pole of the usual propoi
tious, which would be 10 inches In d
ameter at the butt and 4 inches at tfa
top, would weigh nbout 8TiO pounds, j
75 foot pole would weigh about 1,50
pounds, so that when you put up a pol
of that aixe you would be standing upo
one end a weight of three-quarters of

"Of course the flagpole must be secun
ly set up. There are two ways of moun
ing a flagpole. One is to step it, runnin
the lower end of the |>ole through ti

deck of boat. The other way is to b<

ELEVATORS SAVING DAYS' WORK.
Ilgam of mm Old Mia Who 0?c
Climbed Weary Stairs.
Recently an old man stood in the coi
ridor of a big office building, with watc
in hand, making figures from time t
time on the back of an envelope. Ther
were many who wondered what he wn
aomg.
He was computing bow much time th
modern elevators in our high building
are to men in a day, and to one wh
spoke to bim be told bow for yean
away back in- the sixties, be bad worke
io the sixth story of a building wbic
was then one of tbe highest in the cit
or tbe country either, for that mattei
how, though youug and spry then, b
'bad dreaded that climb up six sheer stai
flights; how tbe men in tbe place woul
draw lots to see who at luncheon tita
should make the journey to tbe street t
buy cakes and pie for the noonday mea
and bow he bad at times goue wit Lot
bis luncheon rather than use up so muc
strength in cliuibiug tbe stairs. It too
a minute and a half then for a youu
man to go up, be said, but tbe manage
of the factory, who was more than fi
years old and somewhat rheumatic, a
ways spent four minutes in the upwar
struggle.
"I was ju?t figuring on the time save
by this modern appliance," the old ma
continued, "und I calculate that it is t
least four minutes for every youug ma
who goes to the twentyfifth floor and te
minutes for your 'elderly gentlemen
These express elevators, stopping oul
above tbe thirteenth floor, average 4
seconds in reaching tbe top. Of coan
we wouldn't have 20 or 30 story stru<
tures if the modern elevator manufai
turers had not kept pace with the arch
tects and builders, but I am arguing frot
the other Hide." And he showed an ai
ray of fitcures to prore that in a day'
average business, in which 2.500 passvi
gera arc carried, two whole workin
days are gained. Uis young friend di
oot dispute him.
It is in New York, of course, with il
score of buildings that are 14 stork
high and over, that the elerator hi
reached its greatest development. In th
matter of speed the makers have vie
with ono another until 800 feet a minnl

Why He Was Saeenatal.
The fact that success is mainly due
bard work has been expressed In roan
different ways, but one of the best ws
that recently employed by a very recce*
fill commercial traveler. He was talkin
with a companion, a rather lasy fellov
when the latter exclaimed:
"I declare. Jack. I can't onderstan
| why yon always succeed In selling i
j many more goods than I do!"
"I'll tell you why it is," replied Jacl
j "But," he added, "it's a trade secret, an
| you mustn't tell it to everybody."
"Of course I wouldn't do such a thing,
| waa the answer.
"Well, then," aaid Jack impressivel;
I "I succeed because when I'm doing bus
j ness I wear out the soles of my sho<
j more than the seat of my trousers."|

GOVERNMENT ROAOMAKING.
Work mi CoMtrurllon SapplrmcaM by
LfctvrM by an Exptrt.
? Several weeks ago the department of J
j agriculture began its first experiment
r, in roadbuilding at New Brunswick,
' N. J., under the direction of E. B.
I Harrison, special agent of the office of
n | load inquiry.
* | The model road being considered ii
| the first of several which the govern)t!
ment is to build at the varioua experif.
ment stations throughout the country.
0 | The government furnishes a rock crushn
. er, screen, engine to drivo steam roller,
e spreading wagon and road grading ma'
oiiine and two skilled operators. The
|r city furnishes the material, carta and
laborers.
? The road will be of macadam pattern.
? An inferior grade of traprock is found
1 in abundance near New Brunswick and
it this is being used in the substructure
of the road. The superstructure is ob*
f* tained from the traprock deposits in
'* the neighborhood of PlainAeld and the
e Oranures.
q The model pavement will have a
e depth of about cine inches and tbe founD
dation be mado of small, wedge shaped,
a broken stones of as nearly tbe same dimensions
as possible. Tbe roadbed will
? be prepared by thoroughly rolling with
t* a steam roller weighing about ten tons.
* Every hole will be carefully filled with
'* the same material that composes the
rest of the roadbed, and tbe finished
Q crocs section will be formed by two
I. grades of one foot in 30 feet from the
aides, uniting at tbe oenter, with tbe
d apex slightly rounded. Four inches of
it crushod stone will be spread on the
lt carefully prepared roadbed to form the
* foundation of the substructure. Tbe
[* largest of these stones will be crushed
0 so fine as to be able to easily pass
through a two inch ring, and the smallf.
est will be about half an inch in diam#,
eter.
o This foundation will then be sprinkled,
making Ibe stone as wet as pouri'r
ble without softening tbe roadbed, and
ir tbe roller passed orer it a few times
* until the stone is only slightly disturbed
by tbe teams returning with tbe empty
* rnrt? Thn first foundation is not made
y. deeper than four inches, became it has
if been found that a greater tbicknea
d causes tbe stones to "elbow" together,
?- wearing off their sharp corners, making
* the "bonding;" which is tbe great de*
sideratnm, a very slow process, if not
* an impossibility:
lt When tbe first foundation has been
,r thoroughly sprinkled, a second coat of
similar stone three inches in thickness
will be applied. After tbe stone has
been well" bonded" to this extent it will
again be sprinkled, and while very wet
* a thin coating of traprock screenings
will be most carefully spread over tbe
r" surface, just thick enough to fill the
? small spaces between tbe stones. The
? size of tbe stones of this last application,
which is called in the parlance of
roadbuilding the. "binder," will be
e from half an inch in diameter to the
v finest dust. When the work bas reached j
o this stage, it will be left untouched in
' the dry state aa long as practicable to
jj harden and bind. Tbe application of
*nH thn ruujuure of vehicles will
be prevented a* long as practicable,
t A? the work programs Mr. E. B.
ir Harrison, who is directing the work for
d the department of agriculture, will de?
liver lectures explaining the process of
? laying the road. Rutgers college stu'
dents in the agricultural department

MONTANA'S PUZZLING AND CONTRA* '
OICTORV WELL.
la the Sinerr Ite Water Prreiee
?d In the Winter tine Ice Melt*
ad the Water ilpeoaw Warm?A
My-Merleae Current of Air.
Seven miles to the north and a little to
the east of the Cheyenne agency in Caster
county, Mod., is a well filled with ioe thai
excite* much curiosity among tho ranchers
and cattlemen of that section. Every cowboy
who visit* tho weii taut much to tell
and invariably advances his own explanation.
Many ingenious theories are given
which tend to indicato that mankind of
all degrees of sclentillc knowledge pat
forth an effort to lind tho origin of things.
However, they all agree that tho ice forms
in tho well during the summer and that
It actually thaws during tho winter. This
apparent contradiction of the natural laws ,
that govern tho outside world has carried
the fame of this well for miles around and
people have traveled great distances to
witness tho formation of icicles daring the
hot weather of July.
This well is within a few hundred feet <
of the summit of Little Wolf mountains, '
on the north slope, at the very beginning y
of Groenleaf creek, which empties Into i
Rosebud eight miles from whore the Rose- -
bud joins tho Yellowstone river. This j
portion of the mountain Is covered with i
growth of tall pines.
Fourteen years ago three men prospecting
for silver, mistaking certain colors Is
tho rocks, began sinking a shaft. At 18
feet it was disagreeably cold, at 90 feet
the cold had Increased so rapidly that they
were thoroughly frightened. They could
feel currents of oold air rushing up from
the crevloes in the rock. They Imagined
they were digging Into some mysterious
underground cavern. They had heard just
enough of w6nderful adventures of digging
Into cares and underground lakes,
and being alone In this wilderness, where
the very stillness permitted the ears to
bear and the mind to imagine all manner
of grewsome powers hid beneath the rook,
so thoroughly filled them with fear of Impending
danger that they abandoned the
work which has since gained such renown, j
The summits of Little Wolf mountains
are covcred with sooria, which has all the
appearance and texture of a good grade at
tiling. It is usually red, but varies in oolor
through all the shades down to black.
These varying colors give the beautiful
tints to the thousands of buttes through*
out tho bad lands. In comparatively recent
geological times vast beds of ignite
ooal were formed over the pastern half at
Montana, extending into western Dakota,
rhe banting of these beds of ooal was the
beginning of the bad land formation. The
Ine deposits of clay above the coal wen
burned as brick are burned In a kiln and
formed the scoria. Where the heet was
jreater and rock and sand were present it 1
melted and mixed with the ooal and ooal
tsh, forming large cinderlike rocks, whioh
ire sometimes mistaken for lava. Am tht
ooal burned out from beneath the clay,
oor baked into scoria and melted Into cinders,
it broke into small divisions and fell
promiscuously down into the pits thus
formed. Volcanic ash is found scatteied
over the Little Wolf mountains and the
eastern portion of Montana. It must have
drifted with the wind from powerful eruptions
in the Rocky mountains, as there are
no Indications of any volcanic action in
the vicinity of the ice well. The Little
Wolf mountains are merely a rough range
of buttes apparently of the same origin as
KnMas Tho<1? HIWIWllfaL
towering above all the other battel, have >
given them the name of mountains, bui
they are only of slightly over 4,000 feet altitude.
If ico were to be pat into the well
during the winter, it would keep through- J
out the rummer nearly as well m if stored ,
away in ordinary icehouses. By chance na- .
tuie has formed almost the identical oon- 1
ditians that man has made use oi to preserve
ioe throughout the hot weather. lite,
haft le the cavity in which to (tore the
Ice. The volcanic aah, filling into the open
pace between the loosely piled rock, serves
the purpose of sawdust in keeping out the
warm drafts of air. Tho altitude and the
north alope are favorablo to the preservation
of the ioe. Tall, denso forest prevents
the heating of the surface rock by the direct
rays of the sun. The cocks are too I
porous for the water to soak up, so to <
speak, from beneath. The facta are that in <
many places near the tops of thebuttes,
on the sides where the rocks have fallen
loosely together, they are perfectly dry for
many feet below the surface, being moistened
by the winter snow and rain as II
may fall and run down from above.
During the winter the well If nearly
tiled with snow. Enough water from the
early spring rains finds its way through
between the rocks to mix with the snow
and freeze into one solid mass of ioe. The
ioe in the well ia formed by the oold at
the winter season, but dose not begin to
form sometimes till the winter is half ,
gone.
Zn turn, it is melted by the heat of the
rammer, but does not begin to melt until <
the summer is half over. In the early 1
pert of the summer it is scui iroeung w
the well, and during the first half of the
winter it La still melting. The well eote
La refrigerator. It receives the heat
rly and then gives it off jnst as slowly.
If the earth received and gave off heat
readily, the hottest weather would be in
Jane and the coldest in Deoember?in
tact, the seasons follow nearly a month
behind the sun.
It Is a fact that if on abot day jou walk
rapidly into the cave to where the ice 1a it J
feels as though a strong current of oold
air were blowing against your face. The
sensation is so decidedly real that It re- .
quires careful demonstration to prove to
the contrary, and even then it almost (
seems as though the demonstratkm has
been a mistake It can be easily tested by
using smoke, or better still, a rather
heavy colored glass. Again, if one should j
stand without the entrance to the cave on j
a very warm day near enough to feel any 1
draft that may be stirring, none can be \
felt coming from the cave. If one should j
stand directly above the ice well on a hot, <
still day, even putting the face down to '
the very opening into the well, no upward \
draft of oool air can be felt, but go down J
into the well and one would state positive- I
ly that there was an upward draft of as- j
tremcly oold air.?Boston Advertiser.
