A Handy Music Pen.

A pen for copying music consists
of pen and penholder with two
tubes, which project from either end
of the pen very much after the style
of the ''swizzle stick" which PLAYS
an important part in the evolution
of the sundry refreshing beverages
affected by West Indians. These
tubes are studded at the end with
pieces of rubber in the shape re
spectively of open and closed music
notes, and an ink pad is also sup.
piled. In writing minims or semi
breves the open" tip is pressed
tightly on the pad, and then the
characters are quickly dabbed on the
music lines, and the CLOSED" til
serves for crotchets, ETC., the upright
stroke being made by the pen.-New

City Newsboys and Horse Cars.

unneeded and unheeded by the little
imps of newsboys. A bit of young

turned to the rear. A man on the
platform uttered a shout of warning
and grabbed for the boy. But the

over to a sharp angle toward the
rear, dropped off squarely faced to

The boys very frequently drop off

They also show the utter needless

SWISS EXHIBIT CLOSED.
Commission Has a Failing Out With
Worlds Fair Managers.

Chicago, May 22.-There is a big row
on in the worlds fair. 1t came about
in this way: Saturday afternoon the
customs officers arrested p B. Nemitz,
agent for a number of Smiss exhibitors,
for selling a diamond brooch contrary
to law, all foreign goods being under
bond for the payment of duty before
sale.
The officers then took custody of the
Swiss exhibits When the Swiss COM
sioner heard Of it he became angry,
claiming that, although the officers had a
right to arrest the offending agent, they
had no right to take possession of the
entire exhibit. He therefore at once
closed the exhibit and telegraphed the
Swiss minister at Washington, stating
his action. A meeting of foreign exhib-
tors was held this afternoon at which
the Swiss commissioner offered a reso-
luton that all foreign exhibits be closed
till the question is settled, which was
passed.

thousand people gathered on the high
bridge on South Avenue and on the
bluffs on both sides of the Mississi ppi
to watch the search for the remains of
Charles S. Rogers, President of the St.

200 feet into tie river on Friday. For
two hours fifty or sixty boats, well
manned, dragged the river all the
way from the high bridge to r Raspberry
Island. Every Bmethod failing, can
non were brought firth and fired over
the water, and later dozens of dyna-
mite cartridges were exploded in the
water. The booming of the cartridges
and cannon and the splashing of the
water as it was thrown forty to fifty
feet high caused the crowd to increase
to enormous proportions.
Finally somebody shouted, "They've
got him." whereupon the great crowd
upon the bridge surged to the east
side. almost throwing the bridge off
its piers. Instantly there was panic
caused by the swaying of the bridge
and the hundreds of people upon the
structure hurried to dry land with the
greatest possible speed. A good many
people were bruised, but nobody was
seriously hurt.
