Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars Paid for .
Physicians Visit.
About month ago London physi-
clan had telegram from the wife of a
noble patient at Cannes: "Come for
consultations; f1,OOO." The great
doctor replied: Anxious cases. Can
not come" Her ladyship seems to
have thought that this was but way Of
making better bargain, for she in
creased her offer in four successive tele-
grams. till the last read: "Come at
once. f5.000." While the first tele-
grams and replies were being sent back
ward and forward, the ..anxious cases"
CONSIDERABLY died or got better; so our
doctor, in his last reply, wired "Con-

Cannes. my lady inquired what was his
fee? He said "All the Riviera doctors
with English clients met and fixed the
fee for consultation--the consultant
coming expressly from London-at

cordingly presented to him. Calling
on his way to his train next day, merely
to say goodbye and inquire after his
patient, the lady handed him an en-
velope mot to be. opened till by.and-

but eomplimentary;" but being told 10

so. Later on he found it contained a
check for f50o--a sum which had no
particular relation to the telegraphic
bids. Nor is this all. Four checks
came on successive days. their united
value being f3.5OO. all signed by her
ladyship; and at the bank, letters were
received preparing the cashier for their
presentation. The doctor wrote. say

A GERMAN TREASURY,

The inspection of the Julius Tower,
at Spaniau, near Berlin, in which
12O.O0o.O0) marks of the indemnity
paid by France are kept ready for any
emergency. takes place in the follow
ing way: Two members of the ma
tional debt sinking fund committee are
delegated for the purpose, but the
castle can only be opened when they
put their little KEYS into the lock to-
gether. In no other way is the lock to
be opened. As to the time of opening,
a careful note is to be made in the
register. The l20,OO0,O00 are divided
into twelve parts, each again being di-
vided into ten equal sums. The money
is kept in immense bags of 100000
marks, of which two thirds are in 20
mark and the rest in 10-mark pieces.
As soon as the revision begins one of
the larger divisions of money is APP
preached. and from it smaller division
is taken for the purpose of being
counted through. For this work .
military detachment is told of, so that
it may be done in moderate time. Two
or three of the 100. .00O-mark divisions
having been counted, this part of the
revision is over. There are also here
other imperial funds-as, for example,
portions of the Reichstag, fertilization,

is over document is signed by two
revisors, the two keys lock the door

morning was largely devoted to impending

tion taken shows that this feature of the or
der is to be closely looked after and jealously
guarded. The pork packers in Chicago, who
are now experiencing trouble, will receive
prompt attention. The local assembly Of that
city telegraphed the grand master workman
that it was especially desired that the ma
tional body should do something In the mat
ter, as both employers and employees were
anxious for some kind of a settlement
The employees asked that an amicable
adjustments be made through the medium of
the national order, and the following tele-
gram was sent at the request of the conven-
tion:

to designate M J. Butler, master workmen
of the Chicago district to go to Chicago and
take charge of the adjustment of the trouble,

pany him.
