Gold Mine on a Roof.

Three thousand dollars for an old tin
roof would be a pretty steep price, but
the man who gets the battered roof
from the old Tabernacle church at Broad
street and South Penn square, which is
now being torn away, for that sum will
be In great luck. Some years ago the
paint was scraped off the old roof and
yielded 5000 in gold. 1t is almost GER
tain to yield as much this time. The
gold comes from the mint.
When gold is being coined a consider
able quantity of it volatiliZes with the
smoke through the chimney, and as
soCn as it strikes the air 1t falls. Much
of it falls on the roof of the mint so
much of it that the officials save even
the water that falls upon it during a
shower. All the drains from the roof
are connected with large watts in the Gel
lar of the mint. Before the water finally
gets to the sewer it is strained through
many blankets and sleeves, which retain
the gold.
Notwithstanding all these precau-
tons, the gold that is annually washed
into the Delaware from the mint is
worth thousands of dollars. Every par
ticle of dirt swept up about the mint is
carefully stored away with the wash
ings from the roof, and once every year
it is sold to the highest bidder, as it can
not be used at the mint.

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 1.-The latest re-
turns show that the Democratic state
ticket carried in yesterdays election by
about $4,000. Returns are in from so
outof 119 counties and these give Brown,
Democrat, a plurality of 29,027. The
remaining counties in 1887 gave net
Republican plurality of 2.5SO. The
Peoples state ticket will probably not
show so heavy vote as estimated in the
dispatches, though it is not possible as
yet to give a close approximation. So
far as reported, the Alliance has elected
its candidates against Democrats or Re-
publicans in eight districts.
Mr.. Watterson, in the Courier Journal.
under the caption Let Us Have Peace, p"
says: Now that the question of the new
constitution is settled and Democrats
have an opportunity to look before and
after, it ought to be clear to thoughtful
people that, in the very begin
ming, each party, those who IA
vored and those who opposed that Gu
rious patchwork of good and evil, had
reason to dread a victory. Neither side
could see it in this light, because each
side had its dander up, ana both were
equally prepared and positive. 1t
wanted only a little touch and go to get
the spirit of antagonism thus arrayed
off on blaze of destructive fireworks.
The refusal of the COurier-Journal to
give itself over to the genius of anarchy
and ruin-forS it was nothing less
which menaced the Democratic party,
averted the danger. The party is in
tact. The new constitution is ratified,
and upon its trainers and advocates
now rests all responsibility for the con-
sequences. Let US not, however. in

A WOOL ID ECISION-
Interpretation of a Paragraph in
McKinley's Bill.

Interpretation of a Paragraph in
McKinley's Bill.
New YORK, Aug. 4.-The board of
general appraisers to-day rendered an
important decision OH the construction
of paragraph 3S3 of the new tariff act,
which has recently become a live
subject of controversy between
the wool growers of Ohio and the carpet
manufacturers of New England. The
opinion was rendered by Judge Somer-
vile. who reaches the following con-
illusions:
That the sorting clauses referred
to in paragraph 1913 apply to all woods,
including wool of the third class. Sort
ing is here in effect defined by the stat
ute to be a process OF separation
which increases in value the i'm
ported wool by a rejection of part of
the original fleece. The phrase in par
agraph 3S3. "shaIl be twice the duty to
which it (the wool or hair would be
otherwise subject" means.that the duty
on the sorted woods (when separated
otherwise than as to color and in
creased in value shall be twice the
duty to which the fleece in
its unsorted condition shall be liable.
Any sorting or manipulation OF woods
made with the intent to evade lawful
duties is fraud on the law and sub
iects the merchandise to the penal
duties imposed. The board reverses
t he collectors decision in both of the
cases under consideration.

Indians Are Vicious and IN a Quar-

TACOMA. Wash, Aug. 1.-The steamer
Queen. which arrived from Alaska Sun
day night, brought news of a threatened
outbreak at Chillicat. The matter be-
came so serious that July ID Gov.
Knapp and District Attorney John
son left on the United States
steamship POnta for the scene of the
disturbance. The occasion of this visit
was an urgent appeal from the natives
and white people. who fear an outbreak
and violence growing out Of differences
between the natives and the managers
of the canneries as to fishing grounds
and prices offered fer salmon. Three
days were spent in hearing complaints
and making endeavOrS to secure a
satisfactory solution of the diff culties.
At one of the sessions there were 200
Indians present. Last year the can
neries paid 10 cents each for salmon,
but the managers Of all three cannerieS
agreed that they could not this year af-
ford to pay more than five cents per
fish. and stood firm in their determine
ton 10 make 10 compromise. The ma
tiYes are cross and sullen because their
demands we're not acceded to. When
the Pinta left it was not known whether
OF not the Indians would accept the
terms insisted upon by the cannerieS.
and it is more than probable that the
presence of a gUubOat will be necessary
to keep the Indians in check, and to
prevent what is threatened to be a Sc
riOuS outbreak.

Inhuman Abuse of His Injured
and DYING Wife.

BUFFALO. n. Y, Aug. 4.-The little
village of Clarence, this county, IS alive
with excitement over case of inhuman-
ity and brutality, resulting in the death
of the victim. Coroner Kenney, of this
CITY, is making a thorough investigation.
Three and a half miles from the villages
lives Joseph Eckhart. well-to-do farm
er, worth at least So, eco. This is hay
ing time and last Tuesday Eckhart and
his wife were at work IN the fields.
They were on top of hay stack, when
she lost her footing and fell, breaking
her leg. Some say her husband pushed
off. Eckhart let her lie Their until twilight
fell, when he dragged the suffering
woman by the feet to the woodshed'
where she was left all night. in the
morning he took her into the house,
where she remained until Friday with
out medical aid, when she died from
the shock and exhaustion. Neighbors
say that Eckhart has been habitually
cruel to his wife, and has abused
her in terrible manner. Eek
hart says he did not strike
or maltreat his wife after she fell. as IS
alleged, but does not deny the charges
of neglect. The indignation OF the VII
lage has been aroused to such pitch
that threats of lynching have been
freely made. The coroner is holding an
INQUEST, and Echhart will likely be ar
rested at IFS conclusion.

HARD TIMES ARE GONE

We have passed through four
years of hard times, but this is the
beginning of the end. People who
held real estate have been under
the bottom, but now they are COM
ing to the top. Now is the time to-
buy, whether for home, for all in
yestment or for speculation. Prices
are far below what they were four
years ago, and yet they will soon
be higher. The boom was caused
by the anticipation Of what we eX-
pected. But our widest hopes new
er pictured what we have now, and
this must soon cause another rise
in values. Every cent that has
been expended OH this city since
1885 has increased the intrinsic
value of property here. and it is
really worth more now than we
expected it to be worth when we
paid the prices of 1887 for it. We,
who have stayed here and seen it
offered for sale with no buyers be-
cause everybody was hard up, do
not realize what our property is
now worth. 1t takes outsiders, to
whom our grand improvements are
not all everyday sight, to open our
eyes to its true value. The last two
weeks have somewhat enlightened
us, and transfers are increasing.
Of course they will increase slowly,
but before you know it somebody
else will have made the money. On
the strength Of the editorial con-
ventiOn a considerable number Of
sales have been made, and you will
see many more before autumn.
But we are still holding down our
prices, and will let you in On the
ground floor. with no one in the
cellar below you. ehave the very
best property in all desirable di-
rectiOns, and some in others. But
you can have it, all the same, if
you will pay low enough price for
it. We will not sell anything not
cheap. We will let you have choice
residence lots, in easy reach Of
business at South st. Paul, for $3.50
to $500. These are worth $500 to
$1,000, but we want to get them
built on. See our beautiful lot on
Summit avenue, near Macales-
ter, 80 by 210 feet, for $1,000.
You can also get fine lots cheap
at st. Anthony Park, Como,
BraytOh's Addition, and various
other places; and we have about
200 acres of very rich Farming
Land, conveniently located, which
we will sell in five and ten-acre lots
for market gardens.
