events of the London season, have
properly changed their name to the
women Writers"
Miss ELIZABETH MARBURY, of New
York, is very successful dramatic
agent, and is recognized by managers
as a business woman of rare Judgment.
Miss Marbury looks upon herself as a
mutual friend of authors and theatrical
managers Among her clients are Sar-
dou, Mrs. Burnett, NJ. Carrie and Heddon
Chambers.
Mrs. RACHEL LLOYD, formerly Miss
Holloway. of Ohio, is one of the most
accomplished chemists Of the day, and
took her degree as doctor of philosophy
at the university of Zurich, Switzer-
land, an honor which only two women
have been accorded. Mrs, Lloyd is now
professor Of Oh mistry at the university
81 Nebraska.
Miss IpA NJ. METcALF. now pursuing
the postgraduate course In mathemat-
IDS at Cornell. enjoys the distinction Of
being one Of the most brilliant mathe-
NAUTICAL students ever in the universe
". She was selected by Prof Jones TO
assist him in the preparation If his
college algebra; and there Is a strong
sentiment expressed by the members of
the faculty that Miss Metcalf be made

churches are these: They shall repre-
sent four-ffths Of the church-poers and
nineteen-twentieths Of the attendants
at prayer meetings. They shall do all
the mission work, contribute all the en-
thusiasm for sunday-schools, parish
labors and church holiday festivals,
but they shall have no voice il the ex-

St Paul made few disparaging re-
marks about sisters who sought promi-

with the church there IS nothing more
surprising than the attitude Of the
church toward those who are its main
supporters.

As we turned a corner in the road
we came upon a picturesque little hut
made of rough logs, the interstices be-
ing filled with stones and clay, rooted
with slabs and lighted by two small
windows. 1t was altogether the quaint
est, rudest habitation that ever saw.
Before it sat two men, arrayed in what
our guide termed bang up smart store
Clothes" but evidently, in their rugged,
scanned faces, stained and knotted
hands, in short, every thing about them,
miners. Peeping into the doorway
askew, like everything else about the
hut caught sight of chair, a slab
table with tin coffee pot upon it, a
shelf supporting two or three pieces of
crockery, together with few other
primitive household utensils. As we
approached the two men took off their
hats with the rough courtesy which
seems native with their class.
well, Job, yer got job?" said one,
addressing our guide.
"Takin' raft O. tenderfoots ter the
mine," answered Job. Mighty smart
chaps, them two fellers," observed Job,
as we passed on. "One on them tic!ltes

The doctor glared at our pilot in
mild amazement.

''Huh!' snorted job, in great disgust.
''Them fellers belongs to the band

Now dyer take?"

meekly.
We had nearly reached the brow of
the hill, when we found ourselves in
the midst of number of men, some of
whom appeared to be digging industri-
ously, while others examined the Dirt
and pebbles thrown out by the shovels.
AS we came up they stopped and looked
at us in a good-natured way, hailing
our guide by name.

HOW MONEY GROWS.
illustrations of Interest Increasing at
Compound Rate.

illustrations of Interest Increasing at .
Compound Rate.
At the birth of his son father placed
at interest at per cent the sum of
ST 900, and each year invested all the
interest at the same rate. When the
boy was 81 years old he found himself
the possessor of S3, 399. So. Being young
man of pluck and energy, and anxious
to try his hand in unaided competition,
he told his father to keep the money
and he would take his chances with
the poor boys of his acquaintance.
When the son was so years old the
father notified him that his fortune
had grown to over SIS, ,42O, using round
numbers. At 20 the father called his
sons attention to his fortune of over
S59, 900, and since the son had received
the rewards of his industry he did not
still take possession of the fortune.
The father soon after died, and in his
will required his executors to keep the
principal and interest loaned until the
son should receive it or be removed by
death The latter lived to good old
age. and on his sons Tooth birthday,
besides the accumulations of busy
and prosperous life, was incumbered
with fortune of 1889, 800.
Christopher Columbus is said to have
some pspr relations living in Spain at
this time One or two of these have
intimated that if the liberal American
people would take up collection for
them, the same would be received as a
fitting expression of our gratitude to
their great ancestor. But, if we con-
slider, there would have been nothing
impossible IN it, and 1t would have
been really considerate in Christopher
to have saved a dollar--only one dollar
of the amount given him. A modern
financial manager would have perhaps
suggested that to this end the some
times obstreperous and mutinous sail
ors be reduced at half rations for a
sufficient time to enable the great dis
coverer to save dollar and place it at
compound interest at the very reason
able rate of 6 per cent. By this
time. 400 years after, that dollar would
have increased and multiplied to the
munificcnt sum of over 81, 1922, 000, 600, q
sum sufficient to pay at least some OF
the gan, bling debts of his poor rela-
tior.s OF this present time. II kansss
