''One day q gentleman got on my car" writes conductor in Gin. En- quirer. He carried an open umbrella hung on his arm. When asked for his fare he gave me silver dollar and held his hand out for the change. l counted it out and was turning to go on when he said: I beg you pardon. but you have made mistake. 1 am half dollar short"
 'l was positive that had given him the full amount of his change, and told him so.
 ' You are mistaken he said. See, here is the change you gave me, and he still held the money in his open hand.
 There was nothing for me to do but give him another half-dollar, and did so. went out on the back platform, and the more l thought about it the more I was convinced that had given him the correct change. Finally thought struck me, and waited. When hs came out on the platform to leave the car I man. aged to tip up the umbrella as he stepped down into the street.

Lapland Scenery.

The scenery of the Lapp country is extremely varied. Mountain ranges approach near the sea and attain . height of from 5000 to 1000 feet As in this part of the world the line of perpetual snow Is little above 5000 feet, many of the mountains are cover ed with their white drapery from year to year. and the curious spectacle is presented of green valleys watered by streams which flow down from never ceasing snows. Water courses are abundant the warm suns melting the snows in the mountains and in the summer time pouring down torrents through channels which during the greater part of tho year arc simply frozen masses. Many of the falls along tho little rivers are utilized for mills, and picturesque spectacles arc presented when these rude. blocklike structures are placed, as they often are, on large bowl6srs almost in tho midst of the torrent

Red Seals arc Valuable,

In 1878 Dr. Myer Baruch loaned to William Niebuhr S1. 65o. Dr. Baruch received at that time three bonds from Mir. Niebuhr and the latter soon thereaf- ter departed from the city, neglecting to take the bonds. Recently the doctor received word that Niebuhr had re- turned to the city. The octor found among his old papers tho bonds. His attorneys, Solomon X Benjamin Oppen- heimer, assured Dr. Baruch. although ordinarily claims arc barred by the statute within six years after they ac- crue. still he had good claim because there was affixed to each bond little red seal. When these seals arc affixed to any instrument of debt the claim is not considered barred under the laws of this state until twenty years have elapsed after the accruing of the debt. An action was thercupon brought in tho supreme court, and yesterday judg- ment was entered against Niebuhr for s3, 756. 26. including the interests and costs. New York World.

Fearful Mortality.

The number of Americans who die annually in Rome is greater than most people have any idea of. The Roman fever is malignant type of malarial fever. There is large cemetery in Rome which is filled with the remains of American victims of the Roman fever. Another cemetery in Paris also contains a goodly number of the same class. They contracted the fever in Rome. It is not surprising that Rome should be unhealthy. The present city is built on top of seven cities. In the ancient days, every time Rome was rebuilt they filled in and started new city over it. That has been repeated seven times. When one thinks of the amount of filth and garbage that lies under the present city, he can only wonder that any one is able to live there"

Interviewing Women.

Miss Clara Barton writes this perti- nent criticism; ''It is good idea to give women chance to be heard on topics outside of dress and fashion. It is humiliatlng to n woman of brains and opinions to arrive in strange city and, after being interviewed. find her dress and manners described at length, while her brain is not even mentioned. How do you suppose Chauncey M. De- pow or man of his caliber would feel to go into town and find the cut of his trousers, the shade and pattern or design minutely described with tho style of vest coat and nccktie. and the hair on the head detailed at length, while not word was said of his reputation as an orator or railroad mane It is just the same with women.
