How A MAN MADE $4,000 A gentle
2Aan of Hartford, Conn, who is reported
to be quite wealthy, but who generally
gives no indication of that fact in his
dress, recently made $4,000 in New York
city in the following manner:
"He was attending the monthly auction
sales of coal in New York city, and made
the first offer. The coal dealers and others
present, thinking from his appea ance
chat he could not want over fifty tons, did
not bid against him but to the surprise
of all, he took the whole amount, which
was several thousand tons The purchasers
at these coal auctions are required to pay
ten per cent at the time of the sale,or else
give guarantee that their purchase will
be removed, When asked for his referen-
ces, this Hartford man requested the auc-
tioneer to go with him To the Hartford
Park Bank. The others who were at the
sale believed that the affair must be
hoax, and therefore followed them to the
Bank, from which the purchaser drew and
gave the required ten per cent. Those
who had followed him then endeavored
to buy from him the coal or part of it,
and it is said the result was that he sold
his purchase as it stood for $4,000, the
buyer paying the remaining sum due for
it."

In the early days Of Methodism, in one
of the towns of the state OF New York,
the Methodists with the Reformed Dutch
occupied alternately one church for wor-
ship. The Dutch bretheren became very
much tried with the earnest responses OF
good Methodist brother, known as Faith
er Shaler, who had lost his sight bat not
his voice. Finally, one of Dutch officials
was dcputized to call Oh brother Shaler,
and request that when he was in their
meeting he should not shout; to which he
replied that he would try! At the next
meeting, for while, he restrained his
feelings; but as the services progressed,
he became more and more interested un-
til at last he cried out, with move than
usual earnestness: "ADaen, at q venture"

Washington Clerks.

only three of the seven Executive De-
pa%ments OF the United States govern
ment at Washington, employ women
clerks. Six thousand clerks, paid about
$9,OO0,OOO per annum, are attached to
seven departments, and of this number
only 6OO are women. In the Treasury
department over 8, 900 clerksare EMPLOYED
800 OF whom are females. The clerkShip
OF the men is divided into four classes
Inc lowest class, styled the first, receives
$l,2OO per annum; the second, $1,000; the
third, $1,000; the fourth, 81 800, while the
salary OF chief clerk is 1000 and up
wards The women, however, receive
$9OO per annum. The Patent Office of
the Interior Department, at irregular in
tervals, employs about fifty women, send
ing the work to their homes by messen-
gers. These women are employed princi
pally In copying drafts of patents for
which they are paid at the rate of ten
cents per one hundred words. The Postal
Department employs fifty women in the
Dead Letter Office in retlirecting the let.
tiers, which are first opened by men. The
letters, it is allegt d, must be opened by
men, because the contents are frequently
improper TO be read by females. The
War Department employs only about thir-
ty women, widows of soldiers, in copy
ing accounts. In addition to the female
clerks there are about three hundred wn-
men engaged in the government Printing
Office, in work Of various kinds Forty
five are engaged in managing the small
presses which print blanks and other
forms. The others are engaged in fold
ing, trimming, stitching and other similar
processes. They are most of them paid
according to the amount of work they
perform, being allowed forty per cent
more than is paid to women in similar es
Establishments. No women are employed
in the type setting department. but the
Superintendent has expressed his readi-
ness to employ them in this kind of work
as fast as any good women type settlers
shall apply, and has, it is said announced
that he would pay them the same for a
thousand ems that he pays the men who
now do the work. An opportunity will
now be afforded good work-women to
make S34 per week.
