{" Square in the Eye,
washington News

The ability to look you square in the
eye" is generally regarded as an excellent
people who don't think that way, however.
They prefer the gentleman who modestly
keeps his eyes averted. They know of
nothing more annoying than an impudent
stare. such as the gentleman generally in
dulges in who brides himself on the ability
in question. Some Of tie most honorable
and straightforward men in the country
have "shilly" eyes, and they find il upcom-
Portable to gaze steadfastly al anybody or
anything more than a minute at time. As
isn't safe to make irnn-elad rules for tie
judgment and measurement of our fellow
beings. The standard that will apply ad-
mirably in one instance is hopelessly unTe-
liable in another.

Bicycle Sulky Records.

The veteran reinsman, Budd Doble,
who drove Dexter when he made his ia
nous record years ago and piloted Nan
cy Hanks to the wire in 2:04 last season,
agrees that the new records are not to be
discounted because made with the pneu-
matte sulky.
"The progress of tracks, sulSies, rig
cling and horses is natural, " he said. The
conditions under which Dexter made his
record were far more favorable to speed
than prevailed in the day of Flora
Temple, and Maud S trotted under still
more favorable conditions than Dexter,
yet in each case the latter record was &C
cepted as standard.
Time and ingenuity may bring forth
even greater aids to speed than the pres,
ent bicycle sulky and kite shaped track
have proved to be, but they must be &C
copied as legitimate means of lowering

Millions of ValueIess Money.

Eighty million dollars in bills were re-
ceived at Atlanta a day or two ago, the
mammoth packages of money filling five
large dry goods boxes and making in all
a drayload. None of the bills was cur
rent, however, as they represent moth
ing in Gods earth now and naught in
the waters below it," They were Con-
federate bills of the rarest type. The
huge pile of genuine Confederate money
was shipped from Richmond, the former
capital of the Confederacy and is now
the property of Charles d. Barker of At
lanta. The money is of every denOm-
nation issued by the departed nation,
and III the big collection are bills of the
rarest type. There are bills issued dur
ing every year Of the war. Thousands
of them are very valuable as relics, but
the great number of them Mr.. Barker
has on hand will make them so common
as to bring but little on the market.
This $S0.OO0OO0 of Confederate money
has been all along supposed to have been
destroyed. This is undoubtedly the
largest lot of Confederate money in the
world. News.

Jewish ard Italian Immigration.

More than One-third of the $4,000 i'm
migrants who landed at this port last
month were Italian and Jewish. The in
flow of these races this year surpasses
that of every other year. 1t is evident
that both the Italians and the Jews are
pleased with this country, and that those
of them who have been here for some
time give encouragement to others to
come. For short time the Jews of Rus
STA found some trouble in getting passage
to this country, especially from Ham
burg, but when excluded from German
ports they go to Belgian, Dutch, British
or French ports, where plenty of steam
ships are at their service, as can be seen
by the arrival of so many of them here

Are you going to the seashore this
summer jones asked of Brown. "N-not
exactly" sal Brown, "but we're going
to accomplish the same result without
going from Nome at all" "What do
you mean why, it's this way. You
see, when a person of my means takes
cottage at the seashore he of course gets
apoor sort of shanty, because we can't
afford a large, finely finished and well
furnished house. You know the sort of
place the usual summer cOttageis. Well,
we've decided to accomplish the result
in another way. We're going to move
up into the attic for the summer"
Move into the attic?" "Why, certain
ly. 1t is unfinished, just like seashore
cottage. The sun beats down ON the
shingles and raises the temperature above
100 degrees every sunny summer day.
That's just like a seashore cottage. There
isn't by any means room enough in it for
our large family, and that's like sea-
shore cottage too.
When it rains, the water doesn't beat
through our roof, to be sure, as it does
through the roofs of seashore cottages,
but we can remedy that by poking a few
holes through the shingles here and
there and getting the roof mended in
the fall. 1t will smell little stuffy, but
that is eminently like seashore cot
tage. We shall keep a clOthesbasket
full of unwashed shells standing in the
corner to produce a realistic effect. On
the whole, we shall be ever so much
more comfortable in our own aCcus-
toned garnet than we should be at the
seaside, and we shall have this inestima-
BILE advantage that when we get sick
of it we can simply move right down
into our own comfortable home, where
as, FIVE were at the shore and paying a
high price for cottage, we should feel
bound to stick it out to the bitter end.
Oh, tell you, it's a great scheme
