The charming blond who presides at
the registered letter window of the post
Office threw up her dainty hands with
surprise few days ago when gentle
man walked up to the window, and up
turning big grip dumped its contents
before her. There were 470 letters to be
registered. Such a task had never be-
fore fallen to her lot. Her appeal for
help brought the chief of the division,
who provided help in the shape of three
assistants for her, and the pile was soon
disposed of. The man stood by until
the receipts were given him.
"The fact is," he explained, 81 am Sec

most difficult matter in the world to
make them pay up. I send hundreds of
bills, and when I speak to members
about it it's always the same story: Il
never got the bill, old fel; certainly I'll
pay up. just send me bill and I'll see
that you get it, There are 47O delin-
quents in the club and I'll be sure they
all get their bills this quarter"

A Custom Eight Hundred Years Old.

A custom ElSnC hundred 1eArS OlOs
Tuesday evening the bells of all the
parish churches of Brussels rang merry
peals to celebrate the anniversary of the
return home from the Holy Land of the
survivors of the Brusselers who took
part in the first crusade. They had left
in 1895 with Godfrey, of Bouillon, whom
they left there, and for SIX years no
news had been received of them. They
were given up for lost, and more than
one of the forsaken wives was thinking
of giving successor to the absent one,
when on Jan. 10, 1101, at dusk, the ar
rival was announced of troop of men
of-arms at the Treurenberg gate. Great
was the joy in many houses, and the
long waited for husbands were well
coined with the best of suppers, to
which they did such ample honor that
when bed time came they were unable
to move from their chairs, and their
valiant wives had to carry them to bed.
Until 1881 the council of Brabant held
no meeting on that day.-Belgian News.

Brought the officials to Terms.

A determined German brought the Of
ficials of a New Jersey railroad company
to terms. So crowded was local train
on the Morris and Essex railroad that
many of the passengers could not find
seats. AS the train started, an indig-
nant Teuton stopped the train by pulling
the bell cord and demanded that an
empty car on the track be attached.
The other passengers sustained him, but
the demands were not needed. When
the train started again the German once
more pulled the bell cord and announced
that he would pull it every time the
train started unless another car was at
tached. After considerable dispute the
railroad officials gave in, backed down
the train, attached another car, and
thus furnished seats for all it's passen-
gers.-Yankee Blade.

A Courtship by Letter.


Mrs. Mary M. Stevens, Of Lincoln,
was married the first of the week at
Grand Island to Nelson Wetson, of
Cheyenne. The marriage was the out
come of strange correspondence. A
friend of Mrs. Stevens is in the employ
of Nelson in Cheyenne, and suggested
to him one evening that he knew Of a
woman who would make him an excel
lent wife. Nelson agreed, if the fail
creature should prove acceptable and
could be won, to marry her. He imme-
diately wrote to Mrs. Stevens, setting
forth that he was the owner of large
and paying ranch, was well off in the
world and wanted some one to share his
lot and help eat his potatoes. The lady
was not averse to embarking m the
matrimonial sea for second time, and
agreed that if everything was as repre-
sented and the man was Of a good moral
character she would accept.
She was fully satisfied on these points
and they Immediately considered them
selves engaged. Business interests pre-
vented Nelson leaving home long enough
to come to Lincoln and he did not wish
to be so ungallant as to compel his be-
trothed to go to him, so they compro-
missed and agreed to meet at Grand Is
land. Mrs. Stevens left for Grand Island,
where the couple met for the first time.
Both considered that they had secured a
bargain and were made one at once.
A letter was received in this city from
the happy bride, in which she says that
he is just glorious and too sweet for any

meteorite in question is about the size of

of it is solid film of gold. In one part
the metal is about an inch square. Gold
has never before been found in connec-
