THE British have $500, 600, 900 invested

A SECTION of the Pacific railway in

In France railway companies are

A Flag to Summon to Church.

In the rooms of the Connecticut
Historical society, at Hartford, Conn,
there is to be seen a piece of bell
showing the date of casting, 1929. This
fragment, which is in two parts, is a
portion of the bell which formerly
hung for more than a century in the
old Center church, Hartford. The old
bell, having broken in 1725, the society,
on December 10, 1926, voted that ''John
Edwards, at the charge of the society,
purchase Some Suitable Red bunting
for fagg to be Set on the State
House to direct for meeting upon the
publick Worship of Cod The old bell
was sent to England at the expense of
both the first and second societies,
where it was recast in 1929, and con-
tinued in use in the Center church
from that time until 1S41, when it
broke, and a new bell was ordered.

A Mountain of Hornstone.

Mount Kineo, which rises precipi-
tously seven hundred feet out of the
Moosehead lake, in Maine, is wholly
composed of bornstone, and is the
largest mass of that mineral in the
known world. There is no true flint
in the United States but hornstone so
closely resembles it that it takes an
expert to tell the difference. This rock
supplied arrow heads to Indians hun
dreds and thousands of miles away.
The discovery of these arrow heads. in
the Mississippi valley has led to the
belief that system of commercial ex-
change must have existed among the
redmen in former centuries. Accord
ing to an Indian tradition the noun
tain is the body of monster moose
that was slain by giant.

The Duke of Edinburg Voluntarily
RenOunCeS a Yearly Annuity
~ of $4,000.
By the Associated Press,


LONDON, Dec. 21.-In the house of
commons, Gladstone announced that
the duke of Saxe-Coburg-Go tha (the
duke of EdinSurg) had renowned his
English annuity of e15,000 conferred
npon him by the act of 1866, and re-
tanned the annuity OF 100000 conferred
upon him on his marriage in 1873. The
announcement was greeted with loud
cries of "Oh."
Continuing. Gladstone said the duke
maintains his domestic connections
with the English royal family and
would stay in England three months in
each year, therefore the government
would accept the announcement of the
e15, 900 conferred upon him in 1866 and
the house OF lords would decide whether
the duke will retain his seat in that
house.
Labouchere asked whether an op-
portunity would be given to discuss the
dukes retention of the 10000 yearly,
but Gladstone declined to grant such
an opportunity and Labouchere asked
leave to move an adjournment. The
nation was rejected by vote of III
to SO.

GOV. Walte'S PrOpOSltlOns
DENVER, Colo, Dec. 21.-Six hundred
delegates representing nearly every
municipality in the state attended the
business mems convention today. Gov.
Waite was present by invitation, and
promised to give careful consideration
to any reasons the convention might
advance against calling the legislature
in special session as proposed by him.

for the free coinage of silver at IL to l.,
not all summer, but till hell freezes

A resolution was adopted denying
that there was sufficient reason for call
ing an extra session of legislature and
declaring that such course would do
the state more harm than good. A
resolution also recited that Colorado
had almost entirely recovered from the
panic and while the state had been
previously wounded by the demonetiza-
ton of silver its other resources such
as gold, coal and agriculture were de-
veloping wonderfully.

brought to Toledo for trial. Chief of
Police Raitz said today he would secure

Meyers last victim was an unknown
woman from Indianapolis. who was

evidence to convict him of murder
while serving sentence for the lesser
crime.

HUNT OF THE OFFICE-SEEKER.
Renewed Day by Day Until Hope De-
ferred Maketh the Heart Sick.

Not all the people who haunt the
capitol are ofice-seel1ers, but goodly
proportion of them are, says the Wash
ington Star. They come from all sec
tions of the country and represent all
classes of society. Of all the great
concourse that streams through the
corridors of the vast building day after
day the office-seekers are the most for
lorn looking. They importune their
senators and representatives over and
again and refuse to be turned from
the phantom they are pursuing. Before
congress meets every day the general
reception-room to the south end of the
senate chamber is full to crowding
with those waiting to send in their
cards to senators. A majority of these
are after Office, either for themselves
or for relatives or friends. By the time
the invocation of the chaplain is fin
ished the bits of cardboard begin to
fall in showers upon the desks of the
statesmen. These gentlemen do not
have time to go through their mail be-
fore they are interrupted by callers.
The visitors hand their cards to one or
the other of the numerous doorkeepers
and assistants and retire to the great
leather-covered chairs and sofas scat
tered around the reception-room to
await the result. 1t is a noticeable
fact that women largely predominant
in these waiting and anxious throngs
about the senate entrances. Perhaps
it is thought that their earnest solicit
tude will more favorably and deeply
impress the men who are supposed to
control the dispensation of official
favors. They are of all ages, appear
ances and conditions. The fashionable
society woman elbows her more hum
BILE sister of the work-a-day world, and
blushing, diffdent young girls sit and
wait by the side of aged, infirm women
in the scar and yellow leaf. Silk
rustles against the simple garb of the
humble poor, and beauty smiles into
the face of decrepit age. Many of
them wait long and patiently without
reward. Their senator is mot in" or
he is engaged" or he sends word:
please call again" And the recipient
of the message goes away with heavy
heart and troubled countenance, to
come again in a few days and try it all
over.

NOT AN AMERICAN.
The Briton Was So Stupid as to Talk
About the Weather.

About the Weather.
One of Chicago's schoolma'am who
is young, good looking and indepen-
dent, is employing her long vacation
in the profitable pastime of seeing the
fair, says the Chicago Post. Often she
goes along and studies what she most
wants to without outside hindrance
and is happy in the freedom Of Ameri-
can womanhood. At such times,
naturally, she lunches alone. One day
on her way to the grounds she dropped
into the cafe of a fashionable down
town hotel The luncheon was, good,
and she was so taken up with attend
ing to her share of it that she would
never have noticed her vis-a-vis had it
not been for his remarking affably:
cav, good morning; it's a nice da-ay."
The young schoolma' am looked up
suddenly, but the man was a stranger
to her, and she only gave him look
which ought to have conveyed mean
ing even to the density of British
mind. That didn't discourage him the
least bit.

Naming the Baby,

A Hindoo baby is named when it is IL
days old and usually by the mother. Some
times the father wishes for another name
than that selected by the mother; in that
case two lamps are placed over the two
names, and the name over which the lamp
burns the brightest is the one given to the
child. In the Egyptian family the parents
choose name for their baby by lighting
three wax candles; to each Of these they give
q name, one of the three always belonging
to some deifed parsonage. The candle that
burns the longest bestows the name upon
the baby.
The Mahommedans sometimes write de-
sirable names on five slips Of paper, and
these they place In the Koran. The name
upon the first slip drawn out is given to the
child. The Chinese give their boy babies a
name in addition to their surnames, and
they must call themselves by these names
until they are 90 years old. At that age the
father gives his son a new name. The Chi
nese care SO little for their girl babies that
they do not give them baby name, but
Just call them No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, and
SO on, according to their birth, says The
Churchman

Treatment of Mainsprings.

When a handspring is closed, most mex
perienced workmen will take hold of one
end and pull the spring about half its length
straight out, to save time. This practice
will break springs when nothing else will,
and springs treated in this manner gener
ally break after the watch has been deliv-
cred to the customer only few days, says
The jewelers. Circular.
Breaking into many pieces is owing to
the acid in the oil which is used. We will
suppose the handspring is a fine one and
has been evenly tempered and properly
cleaned. If, now, old oil is used or that Of
an inferior quality If fresh, the acid it con-
tains will eat into the spring and finally
destroy its texture. The coil nearest the
center breaks first. In it's recoils it breaks
every coil in the barrel, and sometimes each
coil is broken twice. The spring has be-
come so impregnated with acid that it has
no life left.
