FINANCIAL

WARRINGTON CITY, Aug. 1.-THE treasury Of
hcials, while apparently unconcerned over tho
recsnt gold shipments, are generally observing
sn unusual retcence in the matter Acting
Treasurer Whelpley takes very philosophical
view OF the situation, and says he sees no oc-
casion for any excitement because the assistant
treasurer at New York yesterday paid out
NphW0 In gold for export in exchange for
treasury notes. He Gays that there is nothing
uansual in the transaction beyond the fact that
gold shipments secm to have continued a little
later this year than heretofore 1t was due, he
thought, to the very heavy imports of late, pay
nent for which mus; he made IN gold. Gold
exports, in his opinion, are practically at an
end for this season. and the usual reaction in
asor Of the United States will soon set in.

Liver is torpid the Bow

4 Toy Industry Festival.

A remarkable token Of the Importance
of the toy industry i'll the ancient city Of
Nuremburg is afforded by the great
gathering in one of the public halls at a
banquet in celebration Of the completion
of the Doc, 00Oth model steam engine by
a we'll known maker. Among the guests
were the heads Of the municipality and
several industrial and commercial cor
pOratiOns.
The little model which marks this
stage in the toy making industry Of the
Nuremberg firm was constructed with
the latest improvements. 1t was adorned
with Il laurel wreath, and exhibited i'll
the hall side by side, in order to show
the progress III construction, with a
model of the date 1915. 1t is said that

Reads Like Romance.

On a bluff Of the Tippecanoe river, be-
tween Rochester and Bloomingsburg, IS
a solitary grave. 1t is in a grove along
the roadside. Standing by it one may
see a magnificent stretch of river, with
woodland beyond. Every one who trav-
els that way often knows the spot. and
has heard the story Of the death Of the
graves occupant.
Many years ago a mover was passing
along that highway with his family. He
had neither friends nor a~cquaintances
III the neighborhOOd, and. in fact, the
population was sparse. His wife took
sick on the way, and he laid by on his
journey at this place, towering far above
the beautiful river. He found no remedy
for his wife's illness and she died. With
ont help, and with no loOkeron save his
daughter, then a little girl, he dug a
grave and buried his wife there. The
headstOne, If there ever was one. de
cayed, and all trace of the identity Of
the dead was lost. But every one re-
spected the burial place.
Among those once familiar with thi-
n~eighbOrhOOd was Mrs. Martha Ale
man, now Of this city. Last week She
was talking with an indianapolis friend
Of childhood associations. The new
friend in the course Of the conversation
said:
There is one thing that clouds my
early life, and that is that | do not know
where my mother is buried. l was still
young when my father died in the new
community where we had settled. My
mother had been dead some years al
ready. All | remember is that on {. long
journey III a great covered wagon we
| stopped on the banks of a river. There.
after some days, my father dug a hole
in the earth, and | have faint recOllec-
tions that it was a time Of great sorrow.
for mother had died, and there father
all alone had buried her"
Was there a great bluff along the
river and ii road running near the spot
through the woods
Yes: | can see the scene now pictured
in my mind. remember the road and
the bluff distinctly.'
Then, my lear madam said Mrs.
.Alleman, Il can tell you where your
mother is buried" And she related the
story as above.
The lady will go to Rochester and
thence across the country to her mothers
grave.-lmdianapolis News.

Curious Fate of "A Shark.

The steamship Kansas City, of the
Ocean Steamship company, which az,
rived here on Wednesday night from
Savannah, caused the death of a five
foot shovel nOsed shark III a somewhat
unusual manner Off Hatteras Shoals,
steaming along ut the rate Of seventeen
miles an hour, the steamship ran its cut
water into the shark, striking the fish
square amidships, so to speak, The
shark was unable to eXtricate itself
owing to the intense pressure of the
water.
In a few moments the sharp stem had
cut the flesh to the backbone, and this
in turn breaking under the strain, the
shark assumed the shape of an inverted
V, hanging on either side Of the bow
like IN old rope, the head and tail being
still connected by the muscles of the
back. Caught thus, the shark was
tOwed along by the steamship for some
300 miles, and until the stop at quaran-
tine, when, released from the pressure
of the water, the body slowly sank

Pound Fishing for Soup.

Late in April great schools Of pOrgies
rush on the southern New England
ocean coast, and for several weeks all
the fishermen from StOnington to New
port have the liveliest kind of work
tending their great pounds on the wild
shore. The fish usually appear first in
Rhode Island waters, in which state
they are called Soup, and then the Jews
is flashed along shore to the Connecticut
fishermen. At once the latter begin to
set their pounds, for no time is to be lost
if money is to be made i'll soup fishing.
They erect a melted fence from the strand
straight into the ocean for many hun
dred rods, and at the end of the fence
set a great heart shaped pound, in which
the fish are captured.
A pound is a big and costly thing and
costs from 81 800 to s., 900. In the
height of the season 100 or more barrels
Of soup are taken daily from each one of
the pounds along the Connecticut and
Rhode Island shores. In two weeks
fishing at QuOnochontaug, a few miles
east Of Watch Hill, Captain Andrew
Laughear took over 900 barrels of soup
out Of his traps. Most other poundmen
have had almost equally good luck.
The fish are sold mainly in New York,
and in the rush Of the season not less
than 200 barrels of porgies are shipped
thither each night by the big sound
boats from StOningtOn.
AT first the fish fetch twelve dollars a
barrel, but the price drops rapidly as
soon as the fish become plentiful. Often
there is a gIut III the market, and then
the price in the New York market is
not sufficient to pay the expenses of the
fishermen.-COr. New York Sun.
