Special Correspondence.
Bear Admiral Baird, superintendent
ot the state, war and navy depart
ments building, has nearly completed
plans for a pair of light high speed
hydraulic elevators to be installed in
the north wing of the building near the
Pennsylvania avenue entrance.
The new elevators are destined to re
place the big hydraulic elevator in
stalled in 1880, which has practically
outlived its usefulness. It is largo
and heavy and requires considerable
teani power to operate. It is almost
constantly cut of condition and fre
quently shutJ down for repairs. Owiug
to its prominent position, however, it
is failed upon to carry two or three
times as many passengers as any other
elevator in the building and when
closed causes general inconvenience.
It is expected that the two high
speed elevators which are to take its
place will render much more satisfac
tory service. Bun by improved ma
chinery and requiring less steam pow
er, the change will make a decided sav
ing in the matter of time and expense.
The Xew Almshouse.
Olticials of the District government
recently visited the site for the Home
Industrial School For Colored Children
on tho municipal farm just across the
Potomac from Alexandria, Ya., and at
the same time inspected the group of
buildings being erected on the site ot
the new almshouse. It is anticipated
that both institutions will be complet
ed and ready for occupancy by July,
1900.
"There is rising a building longer
than the capitol of the United States,"
explained Building Inspector Ashford.
The long building of which Mr. Ash
ford spoke comprises the four wards,
or practically four buildings connected
by a system of corridors and porches.
The foundations for this immense
structure are being laid, and at the
southwest corner the walls of one
ward have been erected partially.
A feature has been made of the corri
dors and porches connecting the wards.
Facing the southwest the inmates of
the almshouse will bo admirably ac
commodated with sun parlors, and the
administrative force will be able to
go from one building to another, in
cluding the hospital, without going
from under roof.
Polite Car Conductors.
In Washington the relations between
conductor and passenger are so nearly
ideal that visitors from other cities can
haidly believe their eyes. The con
ductor here does not jaw the passen
gers and is not jawed. Both parties
act apparently on the assumption that
they will g.-t along very well if they
treat c:i-h oi'-i T as hvr.r.an being;.
Awhile s'.g a co!ni".;-tir found that
liU pocket had been pi'-ked and he had
lost a lot of tickets, amounting to $10
in . value. An item t i that effect ap
pearing in the newspapers, the passen
gers who were in the habit of travel
ing to and from their oiliee.-, on his
car made up a purse of $10 ami sent it
to him with a note to the effect that it
was in recognition of his unfailing
courtesy and consideration.
PnlntliiK tlie Capitol Arcii.
For tho first time in forty years the
ironwork c..:.;:;os!::g the arch of the
dome of the capitol Is being painted.
A small portion of this ironwork was
painted twenty years ago. Now the
entire dome is being painted. The dust
of forty years lias accumulated on that
arch nearly half an inch thick. It is a
very dangerous piece of work that tho
painters are doing, and it gives the
many sightseers that pass through the
rotunda a creepy feeling to see them
working up under tho roof, seventy
;ive feet above the stone floor.
The Xew Fire Point.
It is expected that the new fire boat
Fire Fighter, recently launched at Wil
mington, Del., will be ready for dy,ty
by the end of June. It cjst $50.01
The vessel is 101 feet In len.'th and
lias a beam of twenty-two ftet, with a
nine foot draft. It will be capable of
making twelve knots an hour. As to
its equipment, it will have a displace
ment of O.tMXt gallons a minute and can
throw fourteen two and a half inch
hose streams, with one and a quarter
inch tips. It will also have two deck
monitor pipes that will be capable of
throwing two and four inch streams
respectively.
Xnvjr to Honor Admiral Joih.
Assistant Secretary Loomis has form
ally asked the navy department to
send a squadron to France to bring
home the body of Adm'ral John Paul
Jones. This is in accordance with an
understanding already reached be
tween Secretary Mortuii an I Mr. Loo
mis. The duty will probably bo in
trusted to Admiral Sigbee, command
er of the cruiser sqtiudjon that h;
been stationed in tne uinpireiu ej.
The squadron consists of the armored
cruiser Brooklyn and the protected
cruisers Galveston, Taconia and Chat
tanooga. It Is necessary to bring the
body to this country before the end of
June, as the laws of France will not
permit it to be kept above ground
longer.
