MultipIes of Nine and Six.

Possibly it was the belief i'll the
supposed influence of nine and SIX
on mems lives that originally gave
rise to the custom of granting leases
for multiples of seven and nine years.
Never for an even hundred or
thousand, for fear of the power OF
the evil one. Nine, the trinity of the
trinities, is the perfect plural, and is
credited with mystic properties. AS
might be supposed, therefore, many
superstitions are connected with It,

Shearing CameIs In China.

Camel's wool, used for padding
clothes, is an article of considerable
traffic in North China, and when
spring zephyrs take the place of win
ter blasts the herdsmen of the pla
teau shear their camels by process
which preserves the merit of extreme
simplicity, pulling out by hand what
ever has not been shed naturally
Many animals are kept for the sole
purpose of yielding wool, but the
amount obtainable from each is
singularly disproportioned to the
huge bulk of it's producer. A heavy
fleece taken from a full grown camel
will seldom average over seven
pounds, while IS is a high price for
the picul of 1873 pounds. N. B. Den,

The Draw bridge Keepers Heroism.

Drecker, while stationed at his post
of duty at the drawbridge above the
Passaic river, heard the whistle of an
approaching express train. In his
haste to close the draw, which he had
opened for passing ship, he knocked
his siX-year-old boy into the river
What should he do? Save his only boy
or the trainload of passengers rushing
toward the open chasm? What men
tai agony was involved in the choice
Nothing but high sense Of moral
duty and with quick action could
save the passengers. AS the child
sank from his view Drecker swung
the heavy draw into place and then
only did he spring into the river after
his child. 1t was too late, but a train
crowded with passengers whirled
past in safety and ignorant Of the
gatekeeper's heroism. Thisseems to
me the bravest act ever personally
knew. - Cor. New York Press.

The Wear on Rails.

Taking the length of the perma-

at nearly 10000 geographical miles,
with a daily average of ten trains, it
is estimated that the total loss by
wear and tear suffered each day by
the metallic rails of the earth is
about 600 tons. The 600 tons are lost
in the form of a fine powder, and
are carried back to the earth in the
shape of soluble iron salts. Denver

Many a token OF balm and bliss.

And i'll darkness and dulness we grOpc along.

That would soon shine in did we once begin
To walk through life ON the sunday side.

Like dark miasma obscure the way.
And the gods we love. as We daily prove.
Are gods of clay.
But better things we may hope TO reach.
If we follow the steps Of Il better guide.
For the life is vain that does not contain
A little bit of the sunday side.
The houses we build may far excel
The costly palaces of the east.
And jewels most rare and blossoms fair
May grace the feast.
But it is not home in the sweetest sense.
If the doors and windows 50 long and wide
And the hearts that within their famcicS spin.
Open not out on the Sunday side.

To spend our lives, as il were, for naught.

In rustic cottage or halls Of pride
There's chance. I'm sure. for MS all to secure

gun. All the arrangements for the day
are completed. The different societies
who are 20 take part IN the big parade
have been assigned to theif positions IN
the line of march, and the programme
for elaborate exercises at the grounds
has been completed.
The Germans will not be the only
people there tomorrow, however, for q
large contingent of citizens OF Indiana
will be there to take part in the dedica-
ton OF the H0osief state building, and
also goodly number from Arkansas for
the same purpose.

A New Inqsest Ordered Colonel Ains-
worth's Petition Denied.
WASHINGTON, June 14.-The district
supreme court this morning dismissed
Colonel Ainsworth's petition for a man
damus. on two'Rfounds: First, holding
that the deputy coroner Is not legal
officer, which invslidates the inquest 80
far as held. Second, the right of per.
son to be present at an inquest in per-
son on bv counsel IL discretionary with
the coroner, and therefore not subject
for msndamus.
In deferehce TO the decision OF the
supreme court Deputy Cot6nef Schaeffer,
who has BEEN conducting the inquest on
the Fofd'a theatef victims, djoufned the
proceedings uhtil tomorrow. A curious
point now develops no dead body has
been viewed by the legslly constituted
coroner's Jury. Unlese one OF the in
jured Victims diet it will be necessary TO
exhume body.
The commissioners Of the district de-
cided this afternoon 70 order new i'm
quest, and directed Mr.. Thomas, attor-
nev for the district, 10 essist Coroner
Patterson in conducting 1t, in view. oil
the latter's Ill health. 1t Is asceftained
that the bodies OF Messrs. LOTUS and
Fegan are still in vault at Glsnwood
cemetery. OHe Of the bodies will be
viewed by the jury tomorrow and the
inquest begun anew, with the same jury
rssummoned.
Just how far Deputy Coroner Schsei
fer's inquests prior to this decision will
be inyalidated is rather a serious ques
tion. 1t is believed nothing serious will
result, however.

Heavy Shipments from view YORK to tn
West aud 8outh

Heavy Shipments from view YORK to the
West aud South.
NEW York, June 14.-The shipme mt
OF currency 10 the west and south BY the
New York banks continued today, and
excited much comment. The amount
sent OUT yesterday is estimated at more
than 81 ,0O0, 900, and SMOTHER million was
ordered today. When asked az to the
cause for the large shipment, which is
mainly to the west (the amount sent out
within the last 10 days is believed TO ex-
ceed $l4, ,000, ,O00), the bankers agreed in
saying the demand is largely due 10 the
distrust prevailing everywhere in the
country, and especially in the west.
where there have been a great many
failures OF both banks and commercial
houses. The stringeRey Of the money
market is being experienced at both ends
OF the line now. Savings banks, as we'll
es other banke ont west, are fortifying
themselves as much ss possible, and
that especially is the case with the couns
try savings banks, causing the hoarding
OF money in those places and the conse-
quent drain on the banks of New York
city. As a result many New York banks
are being compelled 70 call in loans in
order to maintain the lawful reserve.
The sending forward OF wheat, II is
believed, will only account for very
small part OF the demand for the cur
rency from the west. Last week the
United States treasury took 81 ,000, 600
from banks ae the result OF the weeks
operations, but this week IL is expected
the banks will gain at least 81 100000
from the treasury, and probably moro
next week, as the payment OF pensions
has begun and will reach its height
next week.
AS an indication Of how the monetary
stfingency is affecting trade in all its
ramifcations, it wss reported in Wall
street today that three large mercan-
tile houses in Chicsgo we're endeavoring
to get an extension in this city from
wholesale houses from which they
bought goods. Another indication of
the stringency ia the fact that q large
mercantile house in this city Of first
class credit and abundant assets, had to
pay II per cent for an extension to tide
it over q tight place.
Lack of buying Ia also reported to be
one of the unfavorable conditions, and
it is generally attributed to curtaiIments
OF credits, the bad state Of affairs in the
west and generally to the money stfin-
gency and the hack Of confidence.
Dealers say transactions in govern
ment bonds lately have been ia excess
of the usual amount. They amount to
about 81, 5000 In the last fortnight.
The supply comes from the west and
there has beefi decline OF about per
cent in price.
There was meeting OF the clearing
house committee today. The meeting
was special one and lasted more than
two hoars. None Of the members
would say why the meeting was called
or what was done, but later in the day
il was ststed. from reliable source,
that the question OF issuing clearing
house certificates, as a makeshift in the
absence of ready cash, was the subject
OF discussion. So far as can be learned,
the committee did not decide to issue
certificates, the mstter going over to
second meeting to held tomorrow.
