The center of tho main roof of the
Ocean Ilouso is cupped by an octago
nal cupola or lantern. Insldu it is a
large room, with eight windows ex
tending from floor to ceiling. You ac
company the car of the elevator as far
as it goes in its upward journey, and
then there are several
precipitous
flights of stairs to be climbed.
Once
up, and you are well repaid for your
trouble by the glorious outlook over
land and sea.
Ail Newport lies at
yo ir f- - I.
In old times the cupola was a favor
ite resort for newly-married coupl s.
They used to get themselves out of
breath scaling tho Stoep s airs, and
then they would sit by the windows
gazing forth, mooning and spooning
by the hour.
'The other evening a trip was made
i tho cupola to ascertain if possible
whereab >uts of
tho becalmed
nhls that were sailing or drifting for
¡/(Citizens’ cup. The octagonal room
As deserted save by the presence of a
middle-aged man of powerful propor
tions, who sat in a cane-ehalr gazing
toward the sea, occasionally refresh
ing his visual powers by a peek
through «a binocular glass. Conversa
tion aroso over the probabilities of the
termination of tlio race, and one topic
led to another until tho stranger ob
served:
“This is my first visit to Newport in
many years. I came here to the cupola
ns soon after my arrival as possible,
for tho place possesses a strange inter
est to mo.”
There is nothing wildly fascinating
about the bare, plastered, cobwebby
octagon, and the speaker’s manner
implied that the varied landscape did
not attract him. Ho was, therefore,
asked what was the particular attrac
tion that gave rise to his desire for an
immediate visit.
“I saw something up hero that would
make your hair stand,” he replied.
“It was my first visit to the town, and
I passed several weeks at this hotel. I
found out the cupola, and I enjoyed
climbing up—there wat no elevator
then—to look off into tho moonlight
while I smoked.
•One night I had an adventure
which I will never forget. Neither
would you if you had taken part in it.
Do you see that ladder?” he exclaimed,
pointing to an unpainted stair to a
trap-door in the roof used to reach tho
halyards of the flagstaff on tho top of
the cupola.
“Well, so mething pos
sessed me to climb up there and look
off the top of tho lantern. The night
was close and sultry, and all of those
windows were open, with nothing to
prevent any one from walking directly
out unless they had a care. Observe
what a descent there is! The long,
Btcep roof has nothing on it to prevent
one from sliding with terrible speed to
the edge, and then the fall to the earth
would be at least eighty feet.
“I went up to the trap-door and
foil id it fastened. Returning slowly
jown the ladder, and pausing when
down a liltlo way to take a few whiffs
of my cigar, I saw some:king in white
coming up the flight of stairs leading
to the cupol.a from tho attic story be
low. The time was past midnight.
Mid the moon iv.as obscured by clouds,
so that every thing was indistinct, but
[ was enabled to determine that the
white object was a woman, a id that I
bad often seen her face about the house
during my stay. Siie moved noiseless
ly along and approached one of the
open windows and stood leaning her
bead against the frame on the side.
“I felt myself in an awkward posi
tion.
I did not like Io make a
noise for fear I might startle the young
lady, and the thought flashed across
my mind that she would be terribly
frightened and, perhaps, fall out of tho
window. So I concluded to keep quiet
until she moved away from the danger
ous spot before speaking to apprise hor
of my presence and going down, leav
ing her in full possession of the cupola.
She was in full evening dress of white
muslin, or something of the kind, and
there wore some« disarranged flowers
in
her light
hair,
She 1 was ex-
tremely

suaded her to go down to the lower
regions, but she grew hysterical and
he could do nothing with her.
“ ‘I saw you gc up the stairs as I
was going to my room,' he said. *1
could not understand why you went
up toward the cupola, and I followed
you. Thank God, I did, Come below,
Clara. Do come.’
“She answered hi in by a nervous
sort of laugh. In another instant there
was the sound of some one rushing up
the ladder, and the other admirer, his
face furious with passion, sprang into
the cupola, lie shouted out:
“‘Miss ------ ■, all is over between you
and me. Any girl who will moot a
man in this place at this time of night
can’t 1x3 my wife. As for you. air, you
must settle with me for your conduct.’
Then he jumped on the other fellow
like a liger. I could tell by his utter
ance that ho was full of champagne
and that he was crazed with jealousy.
“The fury of that onset nearly
threw the attacked party to the floor,
but he struggled in self-defense, and
the two were locked in a moment in
a sort of catch-as-catch-can embrace.
The girl was dazed at first, and then
she gave a little cry and sank on the
floor in a dead faint. The young men.
who were too much engaged to notice
me, charged and floundered about the
cupola like two dogs in a fight. It
was rough and tumble, hit and gouge
on the part of the assailant, and resist
as best he might on the part of the other.
The two got on their feet, when a sudden
idea seemed to seize the fiiriousyoung
man, who was frantic with excite
ment. Getting a fresh hold, he dragged
his rival toward the open window
which looks down on that steep roof
of the *L’ there.
“ ‘Out you go!’ ho said, as ho panted
from the violence of his exertion.
“Neither one of the pair was what
you would call powerful. The fellow
who was assailed, especially, was like
many other city young men of the
time; he was better fitted for a waltz
than such a contest The other was
clearly stronger, and his rage made
him overwhelmingly so. Quicker than

had jerked the weaker one to the win
dow.
“ *Oiit you go!’ ha again exclaimed.
The other one, who was pretty well
winded, grasped the side cf the win
dow casing there and held on, strug
gling hard to prevent his grasp being
torn away. But it was useless and in
«*11)011101* moment ha would have gone
out, to stop only when he reached’the
ground of the back yard, away down
there.
“I had watched the whole affair with
a strange fascination.
I had kept
quiet until the time bad come when 1
could do so no longer. I sat on that
step up yonder. It is about eight or
nine feet above the floor. , I gave a
leap as I saw the hold of the young
fellow give away. I landed with a
crash on the boards at the foot of the
ladder and seized the lunatic around
the waist. The next thing he knew
was that he was on the floor on the
opposite side of the cupola. I am pret
ty strong now but then I was able to
have handled two or three such fel-
lows.
“As I stood over him I said: •If
you stir I will throw you out!’ and
I lien I turned to the other. He half
leaned against the window, with one
hand pressed over his heart
“‘Pray take her up!’ was «all he
could utter, so exhausted was he.
“I picked up the girl, and, telling
the crazy man that if he stirred from
the spot from which he had picked
himself up I would pound the life out
of him, I motioned to the other one to
go ahead and lifted the sleep-walker
to the stairway. It was hard work to
get her down, but we carried her to
her friends. I saw the young man
safely in his room. On the floor be
neath I met the jealous lover. He was
sobered by the shaking I gave him,

He attempted to explain and to apolo
gize, but I let him off by telling him
that I would have him arrested if he
did not get out of town in the morn
ing. When I got to my room it was
just two o’clock.”
There was a long pause after the
narrator ceased. Finally the question
wits nsxed: “Wnat became 01 mein
all? Dal the girl marry either one?”
“I believe she was consumptive,”
was th« response. “No; she died a
year or so afterward.”— Newport Let

A Canary's Four Notes.
SUSSI ANTIAU
FOOD.
Cause of the Large Consumption of Fat
Meats l>y Hartl.Working Men.
I well I’cmcinlmr how the sensible
ami thrifty New England people among
whom my boyhood was spent used to
talk about “hearty victuals,” and how
prevalent wore the doetrinoarthat “a
hard-working mail wants real hearty
food,” “and that children ought to
have hearty food, but not too hearty.”
With these eminently orthodox tenets
the science of nutrition in its newest
developments is in fullest accord. B it
there always used to be an unsatisfac
tory vagueness about them. I never
could make out exactly what were
“hearty” foods, and in just what their
heartiness consisted. It has since oc
curred to mo that these words express
one of the ideas which the unerring
sense and instinct of man havo wrought
out of his long experience, but have
waited for zcdence to put into clear and
definite form.
The synonym with
which our science defines this idea is
energy. Hearty foods are those in
which there is an abundanco of poten
tial energy.
The lumbermen in the Maine forests
work intensely in the cold and snows
of winter and in the icy water in the
spring. To endure the severe labor
and cold, they must havo food to yield
a great deal of heat and strength.
Beans and fat pork are staple articles
of diet with them, and are used in very
largo quantities. The beans supply
protein to make up for the wear and
tear of muscle, and they, and more
especially the pork, are very rich in
energy to be used for warmth and work.
I can not vouch for the following,
which has just struck my eye in a daily
paper, but, if it is true, the workmen
were sound in their physiology:
“A lot of wood-ehoppers who worked
for Mr. S------ in II------ - stopped work
the other day, and sent a spokesman to
their employer, who said that the men
were satisfied with their wages and
most other things, but did like ‘your
fresh meat; that’s too fancy, andhain’t
got strength into it. ’
Mr. S------ gave
them salt pork three times a day, and
peace at once resumed its sway.”
The use of oily and fatty foods in
arctic regions is explained by the great
potential energy of fat, a pound of
which is equal to over two pounds of
protein or starch. I have been greatly
surpr sed to see, on looking into the
matter, how commonly and largely the
fatter kinds of meat are used by men
engaged in very hard labor. Mon in
training for athletic contests, as oars
men and foot-ball teams, eat large
quantities of meat.
I have often
queried why so much fat beef is used,
and especially why mutton is often
recommended in preference to beef for
training diet. Both the beef and the
mutton are rich in protein, which
makes muscle. Mutton lias the advan
tage of containing more fat along with
the protein, and hence more potential
energy. Perhaps this is another case
in which experience has led to practice,
the roal grounds for which havo later
boon explained by scientific research.—

HOW
TO
GRADE
LOTS.
The Ilamlsomest Surface Which a Resi
dence Property ( an Present.
The advantage in appearance which
a house has that stands lip well above
the level of the street or roadway, is
now very generally understood, and
consequently we find the foundation
walls built higher than was customary
some years ago.
In order to increase
the effect still more, it is now a very
common practice in ordinary suburban
lots to fill in soil sufficient to raise the
surface a foot or two above the street,
thus forming a terrace at the street
line. We do not advise this practice
for general adoption, but in some
cases the peculiar circumstances make
it desirable.
Where the fall of the
drainage is very slight, it is even nec
essary; where the grade of a street is
lowered, and the grounds have al
ready been planted, there is usually
no other course but to terrace at the
time.
But
a
course
that
is
necessary
under
the
conditions
named has boon meantnglossly copied
in many instances where there was no
occasion for it, and wo see the lots
along the whole lines of streets piled
up sometimes as much as three feet or
more above the general level, even
where it is necessary to build within a
few feet of the line, thus requiring the
entrance to the house to be by a flight
of eight or ten steps.
On larger
grounds where are built villas or resi
dences of much pretension in style
and finish, and which occupy a suffi
ciently elevated site, and at consider
able distance from the street, this
method of grading up the front and
terracing at the lino is sometimes
adopted, but the appearance is far less
pleasing than an even grade over the
whole surface; one effect is to shorten
apparently the line of distance from
the street to the house, and thus di
minish the size of the grounds.
A
gentle and gradual rise from the
street line to the front of the house is
the handsomest surface a residence lot
can present. — Vick's Magazine.
