German and English Weaver.

Mr.. D. F. Schloss gives the following
instructive contrast between English and
German weayers The well fed English
weaver can without difficulty look after
four looms and can with the aid Of . ju-
venile assistant ('tenter') manage as
manya as six. But. as DR.. Won Schulze-
Gaevernitz tells us. Notwithstanding that
the continental manufacturers run their
looms from 90 to 80 per cent slower than
ours are worked. in Mulhouse and in
Switzerland each weaver can only tend
three, and in Germany you will seldom
see a weaver able to tend more than two
l. ms. The effect Of the superiority OF
the English operatives upon the cost OF
production is shown by the fact that, al,
though the rate Of remuneration Of our
English weavers is about 100 per cent
higher than hat received by the Swis:
and German hands" yet we are able te
turn out cotton cloth at . labor cost dis
tinctly lower than that which obtains IL

Great has always been the comfort
that the parents of boys dull at their
books have had in thinking that they
would probably be particularly bright in
SOME other direction. If there WIS any
doubt about it. the fact could always be
proved by $ ,ries of artists, wrisers and
musicians, who have been thought dull
ards at school. But mechanical genius
and dullnoss at books do not. ii Is said,
20 hand IN hand. The director of "A large
western school or manual training says
o. such cases: AS rule, such Il boy fails
TO show marked ability of any sort. \
Boy who ~ to II, With Il passion fur
machinery. who cannot be kept away
FROM eneina#. the rattle Of cogs and the
snappinG uf belts. never gets beyond a
sort of morbid. simple curiosity to see

Grief Of . Pet Pigeon.

One morning one of the two pet pi-
geons belonging to my father was found
upon the highroad dead. its body bearing
marks of injury, but from what cause we
never knew. We carried the dead body
home and buried it in a sunny and quiet
spot in the garden. For three days the
surviving pigeon with untiring energy
searched the country far and near for its
mate. but in vain. It refused to touch
food. and even the influence which my
father usually exercised over it was gone.
On the third day we found it dead in the
dovecot. it's little heart broken with grief
by the loss of it's lifelong companion
We buried it beside its mate. Cor. Lon

Peculiar Case Brought mp In Court this
A peculiar case was brought before
Judge Blodgett In the District Court to-
day. Ellen Kelley, about 20 years Of age,
was arraigned on a charge of quarreling
and reveling. She pleaded not guilty and
her counsel, George J. West, had the case
set down for Monday. Ex-Aldermsn

Mrs. Kelly was arrested on complaint of
Mrs. Jane McCabe. They live on George
street. Their property adjoins. The
trouble dates back number OF years and
arose over the division line of the two
lots. Mrs. McCabe built a house and
Mrs. Kelley claimed part Of 1t was on her
land. After long trial In court Mrs.
McCabe was obliged to move the house.
Now Mrs. Kelley claims the fence is on
her land. She says that Mrs. McCabe
was sitting ashes on her side of the
fence yesterday when she went out to
stop her. She pushed the seive over the
fence and then Mrs. Coles son threw her
down.

A MANS JEALOUSY.
Makes an Attempt on His
Wife'S Life.
LIKELY TO PROVE FATAL.
Tragedy Occurred While Making
Terms Of Reconciliation.

GLOUCESTER, Mass, Aug. 3-Bepj jamin
G. Horsford shot bis wife in this city last
night. and the woman will probably die.
The shooting occurred on the sidewalk on
Green street. Horsford gave himself up
to the police.
The cause Of the shooting seems to have
been jealousy. The couple are not well
known here, having recently come to the
city. Until . short time ago they lived In
westfeld, where Horsford has been work
ing as paper hanger.
Mrs. Horsford Is rather prepossessing
and Horsfori has been violently Jealous Of
her. The couple separated a few weeks
ago. Mrs. Horsford came to this city,
where she found employment as do
pestio In the family OF City Engineer
Webber
Horsford says he has been looking for
his wife ever since and only recently lo-
Gated her. He came here yesterday and
called upon his wife last evening. He says
that he tried to persuade her to return TO
live with him, and they seemed to be max
Ing progress toward reconciliation. With
this encouragement
They Went For . Walk.
While passing along Green street their
peace overtures seem to have been inter-
rupted, and they had another dispute.
Horsford says his rival in the affections
Of his wife was following them, and that
bis wife exchanged signals with him. He
was then 'nfuriated.
Horsford's accounts Of this rival are not
very clear. AT one time he said the man
followed his wife from Westfeld, aud at
another said he did not know the man.
He stated that he asked his wife to come
and live with him, adding that IL she did
not she should live with no one else. In
the meantime he put his arm about her
and drew her toward him. She persisted
that she should'not live with him, and he
pushed her away and
Fired Into Her Face.
She ran toward him a couple Of steps,
whereupon he fired second time. Then
she fell. After that he fired three more
bullets into her body as she lay upon tn Q
sidewalk. Then he ran away.
A crowd, attracted by the shots, was
soon at the scene. Before they had taken
M Horsford away her wonld-be muir
deger returned to the spot aud surrendered
TO the police He said he wanted To see IL
she were dead II she were he proposed to
kill himself
Physicians have been trying to find ont
how badly she IL hurt. They see no chance

places before postponing work.

saloon of Daniel Lee and the saloon Of
John Devlin, all near together on Mineral

Entrance was gained In the usual way,

DON'T GET SCARED.'
Everything Smooth in
Money Circles Today.
MATTERS QUITTING DOWN.
The Patient Bank Clerks Seem to Suf-
fer the Greatest.

A visit TO the different banks today re-
vealed the fact that everything was going
along smoothly In the world OF money.
The bankers say that business Is begin
ing to look brighter, that is, In other
cities, for II has not been actually dull
here and 1t is not expected 1t will be.
The banks all have plenty of money and
the securities, such as mortgages, bonds,
etc., are, to use banking term, "gilt
edge"
There Is no fear of any trouble
and the only reason that the
90 day notice was given was that II the
people foolishiy began to draw out their
deposits that are judiciously invested
for them the banks would be obliged to
sell the bonds, mortgages, etc, and, as
tho market is now overstocked and dull,
they would have to be sold at a loss.
Therefore, II the people continued to
draw they would be forcing the banks to
suspend payment, or 60 under entirely.
The market will be all right In a month
or six weeks and the peoples money is far
safer In our Pawtucket bank than hidden
away or tied up In an Ole stocking.
The business men and City Treasurer
Bates have reassured the people In no
small measure by the offers they have
made.
Merchants have offered to take bank
books for their full face value In ex.
change for goods OF any kind. This was
proof enough that our merchants
have faith In the banks and IL made the
people feel safer. Then City Treasurer
Bates gave those who had drawn out
their money chance to invest II
by Offering city notes Of 1000 and up.
wards for four or six months at o per
cent.
The bank clerks are the ones who suffer,
repeating the same story hundreds OF
times day and some think Of getting a
phonopraph. Quite a number call at the
banks, some want to get their money and
think It funny because they cannot,
while others are satisfied.
The Pawtucset Institution for Savings
Is paying It's July dividend while the
other banks are not. Some people draw

expression something like, "Ill get thii

SPEECH NEVER MADE
Led to hostile Demonstrations Against the
Christian Endeavor Meeting.

BosToN, Aug. at has just been found
out here that the speech that made all the
trouble at the Christian Endeavor conven-
tion In Montreal was not delivered.
When the convention was called to order
the first business was the appointment of
a supervisor over all press matter. This
supervisor looked over all the copy and the
abstracts OF the speeches. This one was
the only one Of all that were delivered
which he did not look over with great
care. He thought that this man would
not make any harsh statements
But, ~ Ill luck would have IL, this was
the only speech which contained any sharp
sentences After the speech had been

rot hold OF the abstract and thought that
what he was made TO say there was a bit
sharp, 30 he changed IL over In his own
mipd, but neglected tn change IL In the

The result was that the anger Of the mob
was reused, lot by what was really spoken
