What to do With Light Weight Coins

"Light weight gold coins," said
an assistant United States treas
urer, "can be sold for their weight
in gold, the same as bullion. 1t is
our duty to stamp the word light
on all gold coins below weight
that come to our hands. A GER
tain st. Louis bank once brought
100000 in gold coin to the sub
treasury, and $1,000 of it proved
to be light, and was SO marked by
US. Light gold coin is not re-
deemable for its face value, but
the case is different with silver.
We give full l-slzed silver coins in
even exchange for silver coins
that are worn smooth, but in no
case do we redeem coins thar are
defaced or mutilated. The smooth
silver coins we send out to be re-
coined. Sometimes We receive
light gold coins in The remiltances
to the treasury of the country
postmasters. In all such circum
stances we stamp the light gold
and return it to the senders. Some
time ago the government officers
came to the conclusion that acids
Were used that reduced the size of
gold coins, making the pieces look
as they had been gradually worn
by handling, and that is one of
the principal reasons why smooth
gold coins are not redeemed for
their coin-face value"

Young Men
MIDDLE-AGED MEN

There are many at the age of 80 to GO who
are troubled with too frequent excavations Of
the bladder, often accompanied by slight
smarting or burning sensation and a weaken
ing Of the system in manner the patient can
not account for. On examining tho urinary
deposits, ropy sediment will often be found
and sometimes small particles Of albumen
will appear. or the color will be of thin,
whitish hue, again changing to dark, torpid
appearance. There are many men who die OF
this difficulty, ignorant of the cause, which is
the second stage of seminal weakness. DR..

Facts About The Sea.

The sea occupies three-6fths OF
the surface of the earth.
At the depth of $500 feet waves
are not felt. The temperature is
the same, varying only a trifle
from the ice of the pole to the
burning sun of the equator.
A mile down the water has a
pressure of a ton to the square
inch. If a box six feet deep were
filled with sea water and allowed
to evaporate under the sun there
would be two inches Of salt left at
the bottom.
Taking the average depth of the
ocean to be three miles, there
would be q layer of pure salt 230
feet thick on the Atlantic. The
water is colder at the bottom than
at the surface. In the many bays
on the coast of Norway the water
often freezes at the bottom before
it does above.
Waves are very deceptive; to
look at them in storm one would
think the whole water travelled.
The water stays in the same place,
but the motion goes on. Some
times in storms the waves are 40
feet high, and travel so miles an
hour-more than twice as fast as
the swiftest steamer. The dis
tance from valley to valley is gen.
orally Is times the height, hence a
wave five feet high will extend
over IS feet Of water.

A Strange story of the Shooting OF
Natives Near Manila.

A San Francisco special says: The
steamer Oceanic brings the following /:
A correspondent of the Singapore Free
Press says that mob in the village Of
Antique, near Hoilo, attempted to kill q
priest, and fifty of them were success
sively shot down and killed. The vii
lage, which is near Manila, is inhabited
by several thousand natives. The only
white men are q Spanish priest and
another Spaniard, who lived some
distance away on his own estate.
There has been for some time
past bad feelings between the natives
and the race that holds them in subjec-
ton, and recentlya mob of the natives
attacked the priest. intending to put
him to death by torture. The other
Spaniard, who was quickly informed OF
what had occurred, took his rifle and
cartridges and fastened TO the rescue OF
the priest. As soon as he arrived at the
priests dwelling, which was surrounded
by black mob bowling for blood, he
opened fire on tho crowd He picked
out the biggest and foremost men and
shot them down one by one. When be
had used up fifty cartridges fifty dead
blacks lay before him.
The natives, awe-stricken, fled in ter
ror, crying that the Spaniard was assist
ed by the evil one, and that he had gun
that could shoot forever without reload
ing. They did not even come back to
gather up and bury their dead. leaving
this duty TO the two white men.
1t is believed that had it not been for
the marksmanshipand nerve displayed In
this case the natives in the neighboring
provinces would have risen and masss-
cred the Europeans living there.

A STRANGE ACCIDENT AT SEA.
A Mans PaIi stops and Injuries nm
ocean steamship.

The Wisconsin. of the Guion Line, ar
rived at New York Thursday in dis
sbled condition. The accident to her
was curious one. The story told by
the officers OF the ship in regard to the
manner in which she had been disabled
or nearly so is very unusual one. The
100 cabin passengers and the 3S6 steer
age passengers which the Wisconsin had
on board of her evidently thought that
the story was very thrilling one as
well, for they had passed very enthusi-
astic vote Of thanks TO Captain Bentley,
Chief Engineer Dobson, aRd the other
officers for their efforts to cave the ship
from destruction. At about 9:45 Tues
day morning, when the ship was pa
miles from New York, one of the coal
triInmers who was at work on some brass
on the skylight over the eDgine-room
fell into the engine-room, receiving very
severe injury i'll his fall. He fell in such
q position as 10 be in immediate dan

~ and struck large copper ex-

The engines were of course stopped as
soon es the engineer became aware that
anything was wrong in order il possible
to save him from further injury. When
bis Sbdy had been removed and the
engines we're again started it was found
that his fall had resulted in very serious
injury TO the machinery. The copper
pipe upon which be had struck had been
30 bent that the pressure OF the Steam
collapsed completely, totally disabling
the ship for the time being.
News OF the coal-trimmer's accident,
and consciousness that something
serious had happened on account OF
the two stoppages OF the engines, soon
circulated among the passengers, and in
order to quiet their apprehensions
Captain Bentley. after making care
fol examination. informed them that an
accident bad happened TO the ma

take twenty-four hours TO make the
necessary repairs The repairs were
