OLD coins are now much used in the
manufacture of jewelry. They are
worn as pendants on the highly finished
chains, brooches, and bracelets of the
present day. The combination of the
very old and the very new would seem
to be inoongruous, but the jewelers. say
it is quite unique and very popular.

l he always added: please, God,
send me baby-brother." And since
the baby's arrival his mother had not
heard him say his prayers until one
night, when baby was nearly two
weeks old, she said to him: "Come,
dear, and say your prayers before you
90 to sleep.S The little fellow looked
up in utter establishment and said:
"Why, mamma, don have to. F." con,
yes, you do" replied mamma mo, I
don't" persisted Lester; Il don't,
cause I've got my brother" "Well,
you must say your prayers just the
same" sexplained mamma "No, 1
mustn't, mamma, cause if do, God
will be sending along some more bro tn

he thought he knew what he was talk
ing about, and didn't intend to have
hoaseful of brothers.
A friend of mine has two little girls,
Ethel and Enid, aged three and five.
They were very great friends with q
little girl who lived next door, and
their little hearts were almost broken
when she moved away. In few days
Jewish family moved into the house,
bringing with them two little boys.
One day Ethel looked out of the win
dow and saw her sister Enid playing
with the little boys in their yard.
Quick as flash she threw up the win
dow and called: ENID, come home !;
don't you play with them Jewesses-
they killed our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christi" "No, we didn't" screamed
the little boys in chorus. Eyes, you

swered the little fellows, this time in
tears. And if Ethel's mamma had not
happened, just then, to step out in the
yard and explain matters, / can not say
who would have come off victorious. -

in bounds to claim a population of
10o,00O,O0O at the beginning of the

FROM the ratio of increase in the vote
cast at the last Presidential election,
calculated on such figures as may be
compared with those of 1884, it is APP
parent that the growth of population
in the United States during this de-
cade is even greater than that of the
decade from 1870 to 1880. During this
latter period the population increased,
in round numbers, from 3S, $50, 900 to
so, 1856, 900, or about 30 per cent. The
census of 1890 should, at this rate,
show total of IS, 100000, to which
add the increase by immigration-say
5,25S, O00-making an aggregate Of over
70, 100000. The following figures of
arrivals of immigrants since the last
census more than sustain the total

AT the last naval maneuvers before
Kiel an application of a swimming
dress was made in the German navy.
It resembles o divers dress, made Of
India rubber, and double. On the
chest is valve through which air is
blown; the whole body is covered, and
only the face bare. To prevent the
swimmer from being too much tossed
about, the space round the chest is
we'll filed with air. About the hips
there is girdle, which divides the
dress into twos parts, to prevent too
great loss of airfif it were torn about
the legs, and consequent difficulty in
swimming. The swimmer wears shoes
with leaden soles to secure his equi-
librium, and for his defense q long
knife is fastened to his girdle. They
will be employed for the blowing up
of mines and hostile craft, and are
provided with an explosive box, which
they have to fasten to the mine or craft
and to set on fire. Before the explos-
ion ensues they are out of the reach of
danger.

HARRISON AND HUSTON.
The Two Distinguished Hoosiers
Still in Love.

WASHINGTON, May 26.--Perry S.
Heath, Washington correspondent of
the Indianapolis Journal, sends the fol-
lowing dispatch to his paper in relation
to the story of the trouble between the
president and United States Treasurer
Huston: ga dispatch received here to-
day. Incorporating an Indianapolis spe-
cial to Chicago paper, announcing
that there was difference" between
Treasurer Huston and the pres
ident and that row was i'm
minent over the distribution of Offices
to Hoosiers, and that the former
had gone to his home at Conners-
vile with his mind bent on resigning,
created considerable stir in political,
and especially Indiana circles. 1t took
but short time, however, for those in
terested to ascertain that there was no
truth in the story. Mr.. Huston was at
the White house short time before he
left for his home. whittier he went to
and his conference with the president
character. The statement in the dis
patch that Mr.. Huston had ceased to
call at the White house and was trans
hitting his communications to the presi-
dent through Attorney General Miller
is, therefore. groundless. The Journal
correspondent was with Mr.. Huston the
last and only time the latter was
at the Office of the attorney general
during the past fortnight, and no
communication was left for the
president, and no conversation was had
which indicated that there were any
but the most cordial relations existing
between the president and the treas
urer. 1t is true that Mr.. Huston has
not succeeded in securing appointments
for all of the Indiana friends he hoped
to make happy, but that's because their
applications have not been reached or
there are not places for them. This
was to be expected. But he is not CON-
planning, aud, of course, the president
does not blame him. The Hoosiers
must be patient. and in due time the
president, with the assistance and ad-
vice of Mr.. Huston, the Republican
congressman. the chairmen of the
county and other committees and Re-
publican workers generally throughout
the state, will give them just as many
places as he can. He intends to show
his appreciation of them and their
work, and to demonstrate his gratitude.
But he must have time"

EASILY WON.
st. Paul Makes 1t Three Straight
With Des MOines.

With Des MOines.
1t was the same old story yesterday
afternoon. st. Paul won the game with
out having to exert itself, by the score Of
8to2. Over 5000 people witnessed the
contest, and nearly all of their applause
was bestowed upon the Hawkeye team
by way of announcement. It is fact
that the attendants of games in St. Paul
have seen the local team win with such
monotonous regularity that they are
anxious to have some visiting team win,
just for the novelty of the event. Hart
was on the score card to pitch
for Des Moines. but it was an
nounced that he was sick
st. Paul nine had turn at bat in the
first inning, three scoring on single
and two home runs, and the bases we're
left full. At this point Emmerke con-
cluded he, too, was sick and Hart
pitched out the game from the second
inning. He opened by giving HaWes
base on balls. Murphy made hit and
two wild pitches and sacrifice scored
them both. Hart settled down at the
beginning of the third inning. and but
four singles were made off him during
the other seven innings. Two men
scored in the fifth on Farmers base
on balls and Broughton's hit
over the fence, and one in the
eighth OIL Broughton's double and
bad throws by Hart, Phelan and
COnnell. Little John SOwders did
proud days work for st. Paul. For five
innings the Hawkeyes banged away at
the ball without getting safe hit. In
the sixth Connell broke the ice by max
ing a single, which brought Maskrey
home, the latter having taken a base on
balls and stolen second. The only
other hit made by the prohibitionists
was PattOn's home run in the seventh.
Patton seemed to have an unexplaina-
BILE evil influence over Reilly. Three
times the little right fielder sent the
ball skipping to third, and three times
Reilly either fumbled the ball or threw
it wildly. None of these blunders, how
ever. had any effect on the score.
Reilly redeemed himself by making a
long drive for four bases, getting in two
pretty catches and five good assists.
The other members of the local team
fielded perfectly. The visitors got
three of their four errors together in the
eighth inning, but only one run re-
suited. The outfield had a great deal
of work to do, that of Maskrey being
ronndly applauded. There will be no
more games in St. Paul until Friday,
when Sioux City begins series Of
three games here. The score follows:
