wives for a small money consideration.

dissatisfied with the changed order of

son, went into an alehouse for his
morning draught: there he met a fellow
carpenter. and their conversation
turned on wives. The carpenter. whose
name history has not recorded, la
mented that he had no wife.
Higginson, on the other hand. Ia
mented that he had. and expressed re-
gret that there was no way. except
murder, by which he could rid himself
OF her.
The carpenter assured HiCginson
that there was a wav-;he old English
custom that made it quite lawful for a
husband to sell his own rib.
NO one would be such a fool as to
buy mine. sighed Higginson.
Il would do So the other promptly
replied. and think had made good

Higginson was duly claimed by her

DENVER, COL, July %. - Knowing
their strength the unemployed are prac.
tically on, the verge of an outbreak
which may end in the looting of the
treasure vaults of the city. Every

on his arms within the walls of the

They can be placed in the city in
half an hour. The banks of the citv
called upon the government Troops at
Fort Logan, of which there are 700, to
be ready to protect their institutions in
case of an outbreak. The banks are
United States repositories and thus

GOLD is COMING BACK.

Export Movement OF lsroadstu6s and Sc
curities Begun Which Can Only Result
In Good to the Country.
New York, July 3l.-A great deal Of
encouragement is to be derived from
tho fact that securities and staple
products are now going out from the
country. in large quantities and
have already brought about a re-
turn movement of the gold which
Europe has acquired from us during
the last two years. In the opinion Of
bankers most competent to judge of the
absolute requirements of Europe and
also of the temper of it's investors. an
export movement of breadstuffs
and securities has begun, which is
likely to result in the return to this
country of CSC. 900, 600 or more of the
gold taken from it during the last two
or three years. Imports of specie on
Saturday were e280, 900, aud it is learned
that 81, ,s50, 900 more was secured ir
