A traveller of the Nile lately came
across a New England Yankee who
was in charge of gang of natives en-
ployed in making excavations. Long
lines of naked men were scraping the
earth up with their hands, placing it
in baskets. and then carrying It on
their heads to dump into the Nile. just
as they did in the days of Moses. "Why
do You. an enterprisiug Yankee, work
in this way? Why don't you get shOv-
els and wheelbarrows?" asked the trav-
eler. II have got shovels and wheel
barrows," he replied, ''but the men will
not use them. Their ancestors worked
in this way in the days of Rameses, and
in spite of all my efforts they insist on
working so now. Shovels and wheel
barrows they absolutely refuse to
touch. boston Herald.

GERMANY AND AMERICA.
Financial Relations Dependent Upon Frat
Ceres aud John sherman.


BERLIN, May 81. Herr Siemens,
manager of the Deutche bank, states
in an interview that the future financial
relations between Germany and the
United States will depend upon the
German harvest and the fate of the
Sherman bill. If the drought
continued another fortnight Germany
must buy wheat and rye in Hungary,
Bulgaria and the United States at sell
lers' prices. Small private capitalists
in Germany have been frightened by
the unsettled state of the American
market, and have withdrawn their or
ders for American securities; never the
less, they are hungry for such securities.
and instantly the silver question is
settled they will again invest in them.
1t remains to be seen whether the
United States will be able to turn the
investment to good account and pay
| regular and good interest, thereby Sc
| curing the continued financial support
| of Germany.

SOME or THE PRESENTS.


The Queen ordered number of !
articles in Inverness tartan from Ro-
names x Patterson, of Edinburgh, as a
present for the Princess. The Duke |
Of York has adopted the Inverness
tartan since the second title of the
Earl of Inverness has been conferred
upon him, thus following the example
of his great uncle, the Duke of Sussex,
who was his predecessor in the earl
dom, and who kept one of his rooms
at Kensington palace furnished with
this tartan. The Ladies Working
guild, of which the Queen is president,
will supply handsome altar cloth of
white and gold for the royal wedding.
Before "Lady Aberdeen's girls left
Ireland to work in the Irish village at
the Worlds Fair they helped in the
making of large piece of Irish linen,
which was to be sent to the Princess
May for the fashioning of the dainty
underclothing and lace trimmed house
waists of which she is SO fond. Along
with the gift was five hundred yards of
fine lace. The lace was of the kind
known as presentation lace, and is, with
the Limerick lace, the finest that comes
from Ireland. The people Of Wales
presented a gift which, while not
exactly a part of the trousseau, plays an
important part in the wedding II is a
wedding ring of Welsh gold, from the
MeriCnetshire mines of Wales From
Australia there has been sent to the
Princess a great lump of gold, out OF
which she is to have cast a parasol
handle of "soid' gold, and also the
stick for feather fan. Some of the
women of Canada asked permission to
give as a wedding present a large num-
Der of fancy pins for the hair These
are set with jewels, and each pin is
enclosed in fine velvet box Of its own.
The Scotch linen mills got up one
hundred Of the finest handerchiefs,
which are SO gauzy that six can be
drawn at one time through a lady's
wedding ring. And from India there
came a case of silk stO Ckings and an
other of silk pettlCoats of almost price
less value.
The Duke of York and the Princes:
May no doubt were highly peasec
with the wedding gift presented by
Lord Vernon and the honorable corp:
of gentlemen-a alarms, which consists 0
a team Of Shetland ponies, with car
riage and harness complete. The
ponies were selected from Lord Yer
mons park at Sudbury in Derbyshire
and are perfect specimens of that
branch of the equine family, his Lord
ships collections being regarded as one
of the finest in the United Kingdom
The carriage, which is miniature park
phaeton, is finished in natural woods
with brown leather fittings The har
ness is also brown leather to cor

unique of its kind ever seen.

PLACING THE BLAME.
Henry Would Go, the Cars Upset, and
the Bottle Of Ketchup Was Lost

l had a seat just behind an old
couple, evidently man and wife, who
had been fault finding for some con-
siderable time, and | was reading an
account of a railroad accident, when
the wheels suddenly left the rails and
the coach fell over the embankment.
Ii turned over twice and then rested
bottom side up. The twenty OF US
were considerably mixed up, and the
first outcry had scarcely died away
when l heard woman voice asking
"Henry, are you killed."
"No; are you?" was the answer

lust then some of the passengers
came with ropes and axes and began
the work of getting us out. The hus-
band was nearest to the window and
the easiest to be got at, and as he was
hauled out the wife shouted to him:
"Henry Williams, if | was out there
I'd give you piece of my mind purity
quick Hev you found that satchel?'
"Durn the old satchel. My backs
purity nigh broke"
When they got her out she had left
a shoe behind; her nose was skinned,
bonnet crushed, dress torn and spec
tacles lost, but as soon as she got on
her feet she limped along to where
Henry was sitting on stump and de-
scribing his sensations to a group OF
passengers and said
Henry Williams, if you don't git
up and yell fire and police and find that
satchel, and make the conductor pay

But Henry was not equal to the
emergency He stood up and rubbed
his back, and he sat down and felt OF
his ribs and said
