Government Bond Pannr

w. u. Crane, who lives at Dalton.
Mass, is young man of perhaps thirty,
who succeeded by the death of his
father largo fortune and an important
paper manufacturing industry. Tho
Crane bond paper has been known for
years as the only paper on which tho
Government could print its bank notes
and bonds without fear of having the
paper duplicated in counterfeit issues.
Great care is exercised in preventing any
OF this paper from getting into the hands
OF improper persons. Talking with
MIR. Crane about its manufacture ho
said:
"All the distinctive paper mado in
our mills is under the special supervision
OF Treasury agents, and is as carefully
guarded as the Treasury itself. Not a
scrap of it is ever lost, mislaid or
stolen. Besides furnishing the Treasury
wc also supply tho paper from which
postal notes arc made. There has been
steady and within the last year rapid
increase in tho quantity of paper needed
Tor these useful adjuncts of the postal
system, tcstifying moro accurately than
any statistics their popularity and in
creased use. The paper on which
greenbacks, banknotes and gold and
silver certificates are printed has to sea-
son Tor long time before it is really lit
for use. 1t is like timber in that re-
spect. Six months ought to elapso ct
least after it leaves the mill before it
should be used, and year is better
STILL"
l asked Mr.. Crane how long his con-
Germ had supplied tho Government and
he said; awe have made paper for the
Treasury for ten years now, and had a
contract once years before that, but Our
record is ec'ipscd by the papermakcrs
Tor the Bank of England. One family
has made all their paper for over 200
years. 1t is far inferior in quality to
the paper which the United Statcs Gov
ernment uses, and if the Bank of Eng
land rcissued its notes, instead of retir
ing them as soon as they return TO the
bank, they would soon DO reduced to
rags. "-New York Graphic.

Introduced In Stnze.

Mrs. Livermore humorously tells this
about herself: She went to town in
Maine to deliver lecture. A young
minister, who felt greatly his import
ance in having to introduce SO large a
light, announced her in these words /:
Ladies and gentlemen, you have all
heard of tho illustrious man across the
wa er, SO beloved by his people, and
who is known by the sobriquet of tho
grand old man. 1 have now the
pleasure of introducing to you lady be-
loved in Boston, and known there as

A new party has been found in South
Dakota, known as the sing,c tax party.
1t was organized at Huron and central
committee was appointed. 1t is tho
purpose of this party to open the cam
paign in the new State or South Oak ota
with the ultimate view of porating
the single tax principles into the State
constitution. The advocates of the new
theory maintain that all public revenues
should ultimately be raised by single
tax on tho value of the bare land.

THE new German Minister of War,
General Won Verdy du Yeruois, has
decidedly French name, looks like
General Grant, and in his aspirations,
aims, AMI designs is said to be the
counterpart of General Boulanger. He
is n great military writer, and by, hiS
writings has effected as important
changes in tho German army as Bou-
LANCER by his actual practice did in the
French. Tho world may yet see this
man of theory and the man of action
pitted against each other. 1t would
DO an interesting spectacle.
LESS than ten years ago young
man named Cecil Rhodes went to
South Africa TO seek his fortune. He
had speculative talent and few hun
dred dollars in his pocket, and after
studying the Cape railroads and the
Kimberley diamond mines he began to
buy and sell railroad stocks, mining
shares, and anything else in which he
thought there was money to DO made.
HIS enterprises grew with the growth
Of his capital, and three or four years
ago no began to DO known rs very
rising man of affairs. Ho is now called
the Diamond King, is millionaire,
and almost every week his name is seen
in tho English newspapers rs that of q
prominent factor in South Africa mat
ters. One of his latest specialties is
to secure gold mining concessions or,
very cheap terms from independent
native chiefs, and rs everything he has
touched has turned to money he id
likely to mako few thousand per cent.
on these Investments. This young
man is only about 80 years old, and his
career seems to show that man with
large money-making faculty is bound
10 thrive almost anywhere.

Il Dogs Queer tancy for Ec,s

SNCCf AoNCU IOF EetS,
hlonzo Stevens, the colorcd man Mt
Giitord's who supplies fishermen with
shrimp, is one of the most enthusiastic
experts with the rod along the Staten
Island coast. What he doesn't know
about the habits OF each particular fish
isn't worth knowing. He says that the
fishermen should pull the sand crabs and
sea spiders into their boats, then take
them ashore and kill them if they ever
expect TO get rid of them. 1t will take
long time to get entirely rid of them,
but 1t can be accomplished, according
to Stevens. When time hangs heavily
on his hands Alonzo hobs for cells.
He has the trick of catching and
throwing them on the big float faster
than two men can pick them up. When
assistance is not at hand, however. MANY
OF the cells get back into the water
again. To prevent this he trained Car
10, the big st. Bernard dog owned by
James G. Collins, to catch the cells and
bite them through the back. thus pre-
venting them from getting away. Re-
Gently the dog made n rush for bio
fellow which Stevens threw on the float
but he slipped and dog and eel fell into
the water. The eel wound itself around
Carlos neck and nearly choked him.
Since then Carlo has had no use for the
risky eel, and you can get him to
touch one of thcm.-Ne,o Ycrl Sun.

ACCIDENTALLY KILLED.

Chung Hang Filled With Shot By His
Cousin.
On Suffer Island Friday afternoon Chi.
naman named Chung Hang was shot and
killed, it is thought, accidentally.
At l o'clock on that day, he and three
other Mongolians, Wong Chung, Char g
Ting and All Que, cousins of his, were in
the kitchen of cabin on the ranch of J. S.
Foster, which place they hold under lease.
All Que had Just loaded q b-eech-loading
shotgun and in letting down the hammer
his fingers slipped, with the fearful result
that the gun was discharged, the contents
entering the person of Chung Hang, who
at the time was standing with his back
turned towards All Que. The charge
lodged in Hangs back. near the waist.
The wounded man fingered until s
o'clock in the evening, when death came
to his relief.
Before the Chinaman died John Randall,
a neighbor, was called in, and to him the
dying man said the shooting was acct
dental, and occurred in the manner IS re-
lated above.
All Que, who is said to be an unusually
intelligent Chinaman, came to this city as
speedily as possible, Tor the purpose OF CIV
ing himself up to the authorities. He ar
rived at 3 O'Clock yesterday morning, and
at once told Mr.. Foster of the killing. In
company with Mr.. Foster he went to the
Coroner's Office at noon, and after relating
the circumstances of the killing, delivered
himself up to Sheriff McMullen and was
placed in the County Jail.
Coroner Clark, District Attorney Bruner
and County Physician White will leave by
steamer this morning for the scene of the
killing to hold an inquest.

On Saturday evening the committee O,
Sacramento Parlor, Native Sons of the

ranged the details. 1t wss decided TO give

will be used, and it is expected that the ball
will be the social event of the season. Full
orchestras will be provided for both cham

The committee appointed by the Grand

and decided to send the following circular
letter to the various subordinate Psrlors:

ING: Since this committe issued its first circu-
lar an erroneous impression that the Croker
heirs (natiye Cgli'OrnianS and members of our
order intend TO take into their own hands
the purchase and restoration of Suffers Fort,
has gone abroad. This is not fact. On the
contrary 1t IS their intention to aid the Native
Sons in this laudable and patriotic work, and to
this end they nave promised liberal Donation.
A bond to purchase the property has already
been delivered and stands in the name of this
committee for the order-and inasmuch as the
time therein named is limited il will be neces-
sary to announce to us al subscriptions as soon
before the first day of February, 1890, as pos
sible.
In order to carry out the purposes indicated
in our first circular and in accordance with the
direction OF the Grand Parlor, ii will be neces
Sary for toe members of our order and the vari-
GUS Parlors throughout the State to make liberal
donations. We, in our estimates take it for
granted that Parlors and individual members

You are requested to do all you can to correct
the erroneous impression above referred to, and
to collect as much money as possible for the
