LIGHTNING CHANGE-MAKERS.
People Who Are Expert in Handling
Small Coins.

People Who Are Expert in Handling
Small Coins.
There are men and women in New York
who handle money In small guam titles from
5 cents to 90 cents who acquire skill and
dexterity absolutely marvellous. They are
cashiers of restaurants, popular dining and
lunch rooms, where the rush is very great
at certain hours during the day, and where
everything in the shape of payment comes
along in what is called change" that is, in
amounts less than 81, and never uniform.
1t may be young girl or young man,
who never had any former experience
in handling coin and notes, but he or
she. becomes SO expert that it makes
an ordinary business mans head swim to
watch them. One of these lightning change
artists, a red-headed young man named
Hayward, WHO is in a big lunch-room near
the POstotice, has lOng-standing wager If
$4,000 that he can beat anybody making
change. bar none. And that young
man is certainly wonderful. He has
the touch of instinct. Like those of
many women In the Redemption Bureau
of the Treasury at Washington his motions
are too swift for the ordinary eye to count,
saying nothing of the money feature. But
the work of the Treasury woman expert
counter is with round numbers and bills
alone; this Involves constantly varying
amounts of minor coin and bills together.
Certain hours of every day will find an I'M
broken line Of customers with lunch checks
and money passing tile cashiers desk. To
see young Hayward manipu ate those checks
and coins and bills is a curiosity.

Strange Malady W hich Causes a Michigan
Woman ExcruciatIng Pain.
The medical fraternity in the vicinity of
Croswell, Mich, is much puzzled over the
case of Mrs, Jennie Watson, the wife of a
farmer living few miles from there.
About three months ago Mrs. Watson, who
heretofore had been healthy, suddenly began
TO complain OF stiffness in her limbs. This
so grew to be accompanied by dull pam,
which became so excruciGting as time
passed on that it was necessary to keep the
woman almost continually under the in
fuence OF opates, Her appetite entirely
disappeared and she was never able to
leave her bed until about two weeks ago
she began TO gain strength, and last Thurs
day was able 10 get onto her feet.
She no sooner had assumed a standing
position than the bones in her legs broke in
half-dOZen places. She went into a state
Of collapse, but was finally restored to con-
seriousness. She raised her arms in agony,
and when they fell TO the bed the bones in
both cracked in several places. Several of
the woman's ribs were also broken in her
violent paroxysmS of pain.
Her physicians Us yet have been unable to
set the injured members as the bones seem
to crack like chalk. even when handled with
the utmost care. The woman suffers most
Intense pain, and unless relief comes shortly
she must certainly dle.-Chicago Inter

And beside him stands maiden
With blue eyes and golden hair

Not one friend remains beside;
Who can tell of what she's thinkingf

Rain IS patterlng on the rooftop,
Waters running down the caves;
Thunders rumbling IN the distance,
Winds are rustling through the leaves
But that maiden still stands thinking,
Probably OF days gone past,
When in distant woods she wandered
With the one who breathes his last.
She is wishing that IN heaven
She could see his form again;
Hoping then to be united,
Never more 10 suffer pain.

A MORMON SPLIT.
Trouble Probable in the Church
of Latter-Day Saints.
Meeting of the Elders of the
Josephite Branch.

Will Urge the Removal of the Headquar-
ters from Lamont, Ia, to Ogden City, u.
IA Great UpheaVal Predicted in the
BriGhamite Branch of the Mormon
Church - Rumors of the Deep-Laid
Schemes.
OGDEN, U. T., Aug, 12.-A meeting of
the elders of the Josephite branch of the
Mormon church Of Utah was held in
this city. The proceedings were import
ant and interesting. 1t was decided to
negotiate with Joseph Smith, Jr., the
present head of the church, who resides
at Lamont, Ia, for the removal of the
headquarters of the church to Ogden;
also, to offer him inducements to take up
his residence here. Several of the elders
claimed that the Brighamite or Utah
Mormon church is on the eve of great
upheaval, and that thousands of its fol-
lowers will secede and come over to the
primitive Mormon church. Since the
alleged abandonment of plural marriages
the people see no great difference be-
tween the two branches, but will be
more likely to favor the Josephites in
order to get back into favor with the
government. The latter sect mas never
had any collisions with the powers that
be, and will, of course, be more favored
by the officials. One man advances the
idea that should the secession from the
Brigham Young wing be large the gov
ernment will probably release some Of
the church property confscated under
the Edmunds act, and place the new es-
tablishment in possession for nominal
consideration. The meeting was a Sc
cret one, and it was only late in the
night that news of the proceedings
leaked out All kinds of rumors are in
circulation, but it is certain that some
deep-laid schemes against the vitals of
the Mormon church were sprung and
will, in time, be put in operation.

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 12.-lt has just de-

McGee and Hettie Barrickman, of Sky

the village store, and had several chill
dren. Miss Barrickman and George
Therlwell were his clerks. The two
young people were engaged three months
ago. Therlwell discovered that his
sweetheart had transferred her affections
to his employer. This made him de-
spondent. Three weeks ago he shut
himself in the store and shot himself.
Last Wednesday McGee and Miss Bar
rickman disappeared. 1t was found
MCGEE had sold his store and had taken
with him the price and s., 900 some time

who is only twenty years old, will be

During July the Temperature
Averaged lOl.

In Both June and July II Was nc High As
1es-AlmOst impossible TO Provide
Food, the Great Heat Making IL UNIT to
Eat-ImpOssible to Cook Except In the
Early Morning.
KELLER, CAL, Aug. 12.-R. H. Will
Jams, assistant observer at the Death
Valley weather station. has arrived nere
from Furnace creek for medical treat
ment, having been Frustrated by the in
tense heat, In letters received from Mr..
Clery he tells of some Of the horrors Of
summer in that region. Here are his
figures; In June the hottest was 122 de-
grees, the coldest 80 degrees, and the
mean temperature for the month OF de-
grees. In July the hottest was 122 de-
grees, the lowest 72 degrees, and the
monthly mean 10l degrees. In June
there was .05 of an inch of rain, and in
July, with thunderstorm every day
during the last week of the month, there
was but .37. On July 90 the tempera-
ture was above the hundred mark, but
for few moments in the morning, when
it went down to so degrees.
Mr.. Williams says the greatest draw
back is cooking. Biscuit baked in the
morning are as hard as stone in two
hours, and it is impossible to keep them
soft unless damp cloths are spread over
them all the time. 1t is impossible to
cook except in the early morning. Po-
tatoes dry up in two days and are use
less. Eggs, Mr.. William says, dry up
in the shell in two days and become
worthless unless eaten the same day
they are laid. The two men drink daily
from two to three and half gallons Of
water each, which they keep in stone
jars to cool by evaporation. Clothing is
an aggravation, and they wear little else
than a sort Of gown or a night-shirt.
There are a few fig trees there, but the
fruit invariably dries up on the trees be-
fore ripening. Mr.. Williams says one is
compelled to drink so much water and
perspire so freely that he becomes very
weak, and, If not very cautious, prostra-
ton results. He will return in few
days, after recruiting his strength,

earth and new ones created in unexpect-

heavy losers. The small stream, four
miles north of Lerdo, which, prior to the
earthquake, was readily forded, has be-
come impassable owing to its depth. 1t
is now necessary to cross the water course
six miles back from the Colorado. The
Cocopah Indians now predict another
earthquake liable to occur soon. They
say natural signs indicate it.
