ANOTHEREXPRroS PACKAGE CPLNcl And This T.m" the sum of $2j,OOO l;
 ExLrnctcd.
 GALVESTON, Te K, Dec 1.-The sensa. tion caused by the discovery of brown paper in package delivered by the Wells Fargo Express company to the Island City Savings Bank, when the endorse ments showed that the parcel should have contained $10,C coo in currency, shipped by the banking house of Kountze Brothers of New York, was increased when it became known that the banking house of Ball, Hutchings & Co. had been victimized to the extent of $25, ,OOO in a similar way yesterday morning.
 Among the money packages received by this last named banking house was one purporting to contain S35, 5,OO0, ship. ped by the National City Bank of New York. This package was not open ed until after banking hours when the cashier, upon cutting it open, was as founded to see bundles of common: brown wrapping paper, cut to the size of bank bills tumble out on his desk.
 The fact that the two banks received their packages from different instltu- tions in New York made it certain that the robbery was perpetrated after th' packages had been delivered to the ex press company by the New York shippers Gen. Supt. Christeson, of the Welt Fargo company, and his assistant, Taft have arrived to look into the matter. They decline to talk beyond the bare acknowledgement of the robbery, and is impossible to ascertain If they have an clue as to the point on the line where the robbery was committed.

AN interesting story is going the rounds about MT. Ye, the Corean charge d'affaires at Washington, and Mrs. Ye. Soon after their arrival in America, MT. Ye had to attend a re- ception, and before starting strict ly enjoined upon his wife that she must remain at the legation. Mrs. Ye did not relish being left be- hind, although this would have been the proper thing In her native land, and after her husbands departure she, with two of the secretaries wives, ef- fected her departure from the legation by way of the kitchen window, and sur prised MT. Ye and his suite by appear ing at the reception with the most un- ruffled demeanour. MT. Ye took the joke goodnaturedly, and from that time has been accompanied by his wife at all public gatherings.

Race-Track Brutality.

On certain day recently, the daily newspapers were flaming with the an- nouncement that horse had trotted 8 mile in two minutes and four seconds. Every reader was supposed to take great interest in this fact, which was, for the matter of that, no doubt 8 won- derful achievement. On the very same day, many newspapers had another story of the race-track to tell On a trotting course near Boston, a young trotting mare was being driven in a race. She had trotted the first and sec ond heats, under all the excitement which spirited horses Aeel at such a time, straining every muscle and nerve to do her masters bidding. A third to trot another heat. Again she bent all her energies to exceed the speed of the other horses. She was bounding along the track, her eyes aaame, her nostrils panting, her weight thrown forward in obedience to the drivers urging word and whip, when she sud. denly dropped to the ground-dead. She had burst blood-vessel in her dumb effort to do what was desired o1 her. Like many another horse on the race-course, she had been driven tc death. But all the comment which the people about the place had to make about the matter was that the mare was worth twenty thousand dollars and it was great pity that her owner should lose such a valuable animal What long story of inhumanity to an imals, as well as of degradation of hu man beings, has been the history O.

ELEcTRo-PLArING has been applied in an ingenious and effective manner for the preservation of lace forms in metal. An inexpensive and effective lace of good pattern is hardened by saturation with substance that sets quickly and is fashioned into the form of some arti- cle, as lamp shade. The pattern is then subjected to the electro-plating process with the result that the filmy beauty of the lace is preserved to the last detail in silver or gold. As the process is of trifling cost, compared to the labor required to produce lace forms in metal by hand work, and, as the quantity of metal used is only a film, the price of such work is much smaller than might be expected from appearances.

TIE manufacture of the short story is limited, apparently, to no trammels of age, place, or previous condition of aptitude for writing. According to the North American Review all persons, young and old, who can spell words of one syllable, and some who cannot, be- lievc they can write stories. An emu meration of the tens of thousands in the land who at least once have tried their hand at it is omitted from the census. Even more astonishing figures are lost in the passing over of those who are wont to say: ''If only had time should write down that story of mine and send it to magazine" Pit iful in comparison would be the num- bers of the modest who suspect that | their work might not succeed.
