Little Frances is three years old.
She is the proud possessor of a fat
rubber doll which goes by the name Of
Edna
Frances and Edna are inseparable
companions.
One day Frances mamma discovered
the newly polished window pane COW
cred with finger marks, and she spoke
to the child in this wise:
Frances, mamma didn't see who
made all those finger marks on nam.
mas nice clean window pane, because
her back was turned, but the dear
Lord up in the sky saw who did it, and
the angels wrote it down in big book.
Now tell me, Frances, do you know
who marked up mammals window2"
''Yesm, " replied Baby Frances, look
ing mamma straight in the eye.
Now, you must tell me right, you
know, because the angels are listen
ing"
"Yes'm."
''Frances, who marked up mammals
window like that2"
Edna" replied the tot promptly,
pointing to her rubber doll. .-Pittsburg

A New Kind of a Gard.

"Here is card that typifles my line
of business" said an energetic trades
man to friend, handing out business
card so light and thin that but for its
elasticity and crackle blind man
would have said that it was gold leaf.
1t was thinner than ordinary writing
paper, and yet it had the elastic quail
ties of fine bristol board. "That card
is made of aluminium, said the trades
man, ''and it is novelty. 1t is the
finest card made, and as l sell the finest
goods made it typitles my business. 1t
is more durable than anything that |
have been able to find, and have tried
everything made of paper, metal, wood

SWEATING eY ELECTRICITY.
Clever Japanese Rogues who Can stcai
Fifty Cents from an Eagle.

Clever Japanese Rogues who Can stcai
Fifty Cents from an Eagle.
The methods of the japanese, who,
for the purpose Of defrauding the gov
ernment, will. spend days on the scoop
eventually Oils with baser metal, are
much improved on in these progressive
days A large number of short weight
gold coins are in circulation, and the
frequency with which they are met
with has led to investigations which
show that there has been for some time
systematic scheme for robbing the
government by stealing metal from the
coins.
Some years ago a series of tests were
made by the government for the pur
pose of defining the actual loss by
abrasion in the moving of gold coins.
1t was found that five dollars was lost
by abrasion every time 81, 200, 900 in
gold coin was handled. Bags con
tanning $1,000 each were lifted to a
truck to be removed to another vault,
and the mere lifting of the 200 bags
caused the loss stated, and their trans
fer from the truck as,c.irl made a second
similar loss.
This shows how readily gold can be
removed from the coins, but this meth
od is much too slow for the clever
rogues. who realize the value of scien |
tillc appliances. The work of abrasion
is now done by electricity, after the
manner of the electroplating of gold.
An ordinary galvanic battery and some
cheap acid is procured.
The coin is placed in the fluid, and
attached to it are wires from the poles
of the battery, leading TO another piece
of metal prepared to receive, in the form
of plating, the metal to be removed
from the coin. Sufficient gold to form
a plating is quickly transferred, and, as
it is removed uniformly from all parts
of the coin, the liability of disigure
ment is reduced to a minimum, the
only effect being to blur the characters
slightly.
In this way about fifty cents worth
of gold can be removed from ten dol
lar goldpiece withdGt a very marked
change in the appearance of the coin.
the eye of an expert, however, detects
,he alteration at glance. One of the
employees in the New York sub-treasury
S said to have become so skilled in this
branch of the work by years of expert
9nce that lie can tell by mere touch,
With closed eyes, whether a piece is
spurious metal or has been tampered
With
1t is stated that the sweating of gold
by electricity in this country is practiced
almost entirely by foreign swindlers
who have been driven from their own
country for similar offenses. Pittsburg

from Zanzibar to her relatives here
Mrs. French Sheldon made no men
tion of her serious illness as describ
ed in a cable by Reuter- from tht
same place. In catching the steam
er Madeira for her return, Mrs. Shel.
don carried out the exact program
we arranged before starting. She
spent a month i'm Kilimanjaro dis
trict, and even visited places not in
cluded in her original plans; for in
stance, no one expected that In her
trip toward Mount Kilimanjaro,
where she had been preceded by
such experienced explorers as
Thomson, Johnstone and Myers,
she would be able to add much
to the existing geographical
knowledge. In point of fact, her
aim was to study the people of Kill
manjaro plateau. She had, however,
been fortunate enough to explore for
the first time Lake Chela, which
because of Its situation at the bot
tom of crater with perpendicular
sides, was supposed to be inaccessa-
BILE. At Taneta, Mrs. Sheldon met
with Mr.. Anstruther, who intended
to exploreILake Chela, which is sit
uated about ten miles north of Tan
eta. With great difficulty Il road
was cut through tue trees and creep
ers down to the surface Of the lake.
Mrs. Sheldon's porters found an
cid pontoon which had been aban.
doned at Taneta by a Russian
prince which they improvised into
a boat. Only one of seventy pOrters
could be induced to join Mrs. Shell
don and Mr.. Anstruther in eXplor-
ing this "devil's water" as they
called it. They found plenty of
crocodiles and wild ducks ia the
lakes. Curiously enough, there was
u ldBlO SulIGnb III luC M0lSty SuOh-
ing that lhe lake itself is in the
course of an underground river.

ernment over the collection from a

on nitrate brought into Lochilla.
The British minister has made
vigorous protest. What action Bal
will take cannot be learned |
but, it is probable he will return the
money. The correspondent also

urged her 70 marry him. This she
refused to do. Isenndry thereupon
pulled out q revolver and fired right
at the girls head. The bullet grazcd
her left ear, and she fell in swoon.
The brute then planted his foot on
her PROSTATE body, and aiming at
her heart, he fred the second shot.
He then shot himself as stated.
Doctors say that he cannot possibly
recover. He met Miss Corrigap
some weeks ago and at once became
infatuated. She never liked him,
and as much as possible repelied his
attentions. The affair may impair
her mind, it is feared.

patch says that Queen Garcia of
Saxony is suffering from severe
nervous prostration as a result
of her narrow escape from death, a
few days ago, while visiting Baron
Gudonus, at his estate in Monrovia.
1t appears that while the queen was
being driven to the railway station,
tremendous thunder storm and a
flash Of lightning struck the carri-
age. The horses began to rear and
started to run, but the coachman
held bravely to the reins and got
them under control. The queen,
who behaved with remarkable calm
ness at the time of the danger, after
ward suffered from reaction and be-
came prostrated.
