THE DRExEL BROTHERS.

0xSh Gossips About Philade'phia's Multi-
 Millionaire Bankers.
 ' The house of Drexel arose in Phila.
 delphia somewhat earlier than that of
 Jay Cooke, commencing with Tyrolese artist who painted pictures and shaved
 notes and currency. Upon careful foundations, writes "Gath" Tn the Gin. cinnati Enquirer, he raised a house which at the decay of Jay Cooke seized upon many great occasions and, drawing in such men as Mir. MCcgan, of New En. gland, began to play vast intermediate part between railroads and investment and general financial directions. The fortunes of the three Drexel brothers, though not as large as some fortunes in New York City, have been in the aggre- gate probably S25, ,OOO, 900 to $50, COG, ,OOO. These bankers were wise in drawing young blood into their departments and buying experience as princes formerly bought great military commanders. The Drexels have recently absorbed the Stock Exchange of Philadelphia into their huge marble block which they have put up on Chestnut street op- poslte the old Hall of Congress, and be- tween that and the Bank of the United States, which still stands and is the American custom-house. A portion of that ground was covered by the Phila- delphia library which Franklin fo lnded and before which his statue stood. I know of no American city where the lawyers offices seem to extend so many miles as in Philadelphia; they commence down by the old and now effeto Stock Exchange on Third street and can be followed up Walnut street nearly to Broad. The civil war finding PLSadel- phia far out upon it's frontier, since Baltimore sulked at the recovery of the Union, electrified the former city, ab. sorbed all it's functions, and hence to the present day the politics of Pennsylvania is as much directed by the war on the one side as the politics of Virginia by the opposite side.

Peculiar Experience of an American Iat

Peculiar Experience of an American Iady E. in Seoul.
 The natives in the East who have be. come familiar with foreigners and their customs take very readily to the custom of calling-and eating-on New Years day, and ono lady had very peculiar ex. pertence with native official in Seoul last year.
 She was keeping ''open house." and had made some preparation for receiy ing her guests in the proper manner. Among other things, she had prepared with her own hands a very excellent cake, which she expected to distribute in
 little bits to all who might favor her with call. party of native gentle men arrived, and, having given one of them cup of tea, she placed this fine cake before him with an invitation to help himself. She then went with the others to another room, and was gone some time. When she returned she saw to her horror that her beautiful cake had all but disappeared down the throat of the poor fellow, who had tried his best to do the polite thing-accordingt to his countrys customs-and not leave any of the food set before him, thus showing his appreciation of the hosts table and hospitality. The lady's vexa- tion was vanished by feeling of com for the miserable man. who seemed to be very much in need of an emetic just then. It is said this call was his first and last on that day, as he de- ciared to friend that foreigners must be all stomach if they could go from house to house and do justice to the hos pitality of each,

It was thought that if he was cute enough 10 play the tramp and carry out the play, he would not refuse to accep money for SO doing. c. s. Fly sent word to him this morning that he would give him five dollars for sit. ting at his gallery. The information was conveyed to him and he accepted the proposition. Jailor Ritchie brought him down about one o'clock and MT Fly secured three different views of him. They will not be ready for in. spection till Saturday but will no doubt create quite stir among those who will seek to recognize him.

He found toiay whil examining it that the pm which strikes the cap had been ii lied off care- fully, so that the gun was of no use which is another instance of the fool ishntss of packing firearms. Another instance of this kind is told by citi- zen of Tombstone who hearing noise i his Atahle q few nights since took his pistol from under his pillow and s arched the barn with the gun at full cock, He stumbled and fell and the hammer came down on the pin but did not explode cartridge. He re- turned to the house and examined the pistol and found that lhero was not a cartridge in it.

 LONDON, July 25-There is sa lively row in London over the facts discov- cred about the Imures mines in So- zorro county N. M. The money paid for the property was $62o,OOO. of which $337 ,0OO was paid in cash. The chairman of the board of directors, James Whittall, one of the well-known solid London merchants, paid the mines 8 visit before the purchase. He was accompanied by Welsh mining expert, who made an enthusiastic re- port. A year ago the man who sold the mine to the English company had row in New Mexico with 8 partner and was shot dead.

THE electrical instrument recently in
 vented for avoiding the pain incident te
 tne extraction of teeth has attracted
 considerable attention. Briefly, it con.
 slsts of adjustable prongs, carrying | buttons and connected with an electrical battery. The buttons are placed on the
 face over the nerves leading from the teeth to the brain, and circuit is estab,
 ilshed the moment the extracting in. strument touches the tooth.
 A NUMBER of Philadelphia physicians
 and surgeons have organized an electro
 therapeutic society for the discussion of
 questions of electricity combined with
 medicine and surgery Tho main object
 of the society is to reduce the amount
 or emplricism with which the practice Of acknowledgements has hitherto
 frequently been associated, and to in- duce regularly certified practitioners to take up the subject on scentiflc basis.
 IN tests on number of different per sons, an electrician has found the effect we resistance of the human body to be less to the alternating than to the direct current in the same individual with great variation in the resistance to either current in different persons In five sublects the resistance to a continuous current of 50 volts ranged from 3,32O to lo,OOO The tests revealed incidentally striking difference in the strength Q. current different individuals can endure
 SOME wonderful work has lately been done in the removal Of diseased parts Of the human body by clectrolysis. Dr, | Abrath, who has paid special attention to this branch of surgery, states that ha mas removed tumors and cancers with ease by electricity where no surgical interference with tho knife was possi- Die, cases which have batiled all medical ana surgical treatment, including lini- ments or injections. Grown-up people who had been under hospital treatment and dismissed as incu;ablc have thrs escaped the horrors of suffocation or other miserable deaths. These he has had photographed in their perfectly cured state after electrical treatment. He not only finds that electric cur rent will kill the cancer cell beyond where the knife can go but that hem 'rrhage and shock are moro or less pre- rented with the use Of elcctrolysis and 'ceptic@mia or pyamia, which so often otlows removal with the knife, is nearly s,ways avoided.

 CoLLIs P. HUNTINGTON is spoken of by his associates as the only millionaire Who never has any fun. Other rich men have their fads, fancies and recreation, but MT. Huntington does not care for horses, yachts, fruits, flesh or fowl. He IS at his desk to make money, and he is remarkable typo of close, intense. and hard-working business man.

 MIR. ROCHE, superintendent of the Philadelphia Art Club, who for tbreo years was purser and steward on the Atalanta, declares that Jay Gould is a much misunderstood man.
