TOPS.
"Jersey Lilies" That Are Hammers and
Lignum vita Tip-Toppers.

"Jersey Lilies" That Are Hammers and
Lignum vita Tip-Toppers.
Most Of the tops that boys spin are
made in Pennsylvania. In one Penn
sylvania town there is factory that
employs more than 200 hands making
tops. Tops are made Of lockwood,
maple and lignum vitae. Taking all
kinds of tops together, a larger num-
Der of maple are sold than either Of
the other woods; lockwood comes next,
and next lignum vitae; but in the
kind the lockwood tops are first, the
maple next and the lignum vitae last.
Not many lignum vitae tops are sold,
on account of their cost. The lignum
vitae tops are sold more in the South
and in the Northwest than in other
parts of the country. 1t may be of
interest to note that most of the iron
pegs used in peg tops are cast in
Newark, y. j.
A top that is made especially for
New York city is known as the Jersey
Lily; il has now been in use three
years. The popularity of the Jersey
Lily is that it has no head; it is sup
posed to be possible to get better
hold of such top and to be easier to
hit such top in a ring. The sale of
the Jersey Lily is increasing. One
wholesale dealer sells 1000 gross of
Jersey Lilies in a year. Counting the
sales of other dealers it is proba BILE
that more than 1000 gross OF tops of
this style are sold annually.
The sale of the Jersey Lily is still
practically confined to New York city,
but substantially all the other peg
tops manufactured are now made as
they have been for the past three or
four years with removable heads, the
head fitting into little socket turned
in the tap to receive it. 1t costs lit
tie more to make top in this way,
but the cost to the consumer remains
unchanged.

us Knew His Little Playmate Was Dead
and Showed It.


and Slowed II.
Several months ago this advertise
ment appeared in daily paper:
pLOST-A small brown-and-white dog
OF no particular breed; had on link
collar; answers to the name of BEN
N.Y." he was the pet of little sick
girl, and liberal reward will be paid
for his return to 225 - st.
Months passed away, and the dog
"of no particular breed" was mourned
as lost, and constant watch was kept
for him by the family who owned him,
until matters of graver import de-
manded their attention. Then the
dog came home one day, dragging a
long piece of dusty rope after him.
He was tired and footsore, but he ran
joyfully from one member of the fam
lily to another, looking for his little
mistress. Before any one realized
what he meant to do, he had escaped
from them, and hurried upstairs to
her room.
The single watcher there had no
power to stop him, for he had seen
that dear little figure on the silent
bed, and running around to the other
side he sprang up and then stopped,
as il conscious for the first time that
something was wrong, that the still,
white figure made no move toward
him. He looked into the dear, pale
face, and scented the cluster of lovely
flowers that lay upon the motionless
heart, took a step nearer to her, and
his brown eyes,glowing with love and
delight, grew solemn and thoughtful.
He threw back his head, and gave a
long, quivering cry that was filed
with pathos and sorrow that was
human in its depths Of anguish and
hopelessness- Then he ran out on the
street, and was seen no more. But, if
ever dogs heart was broken, poor
little Benny's broke when he realized
through some occult knowledge of his
own that his little playmate was dead.

Given By Dissipatsd Young Nobiemsn
to . Burlssque Dancer.
An extraordinary story is going the
round of clubdom of London. The
chief actors are an earl, a burlesque
dancer, burlesque actress and q
music hall celebrity, who is also the
husband of one of the ladies above
mentioned. A short time ago the
danseuse was in temporary possession
Of a quantity of jewelry, among which
it is alleged were family heirlooms,
the property of the noble earl. The
jewelry, it is said, was lent by the
danseuse to burlesque actress. Dur
ing the time the latter had possession
Of the valuables the music hall celeb
rity was in position of financial en-
barrassment. In these conditions. it is
said, he prevailed upon his wife
to hand the treasure to another party,
as security for the advance of large
sum Of money, the music hall man
urging that he was in daily expecta-
ton of assistance from a scion of a
well-known city manufacturing house.
This support was not forthcoming. In
the meantime his lordship, who has
been absent from London, wrote to
the danseuse, advising her Of his con-
templated return to the metropolis.
The announcement created some con-
sternation among the parties concern
ed, and the danseuse requested the
return Of the jewels. This the actress
was unable to do. Most urgent APP
peals were made to the money lender,
but that gentleman was obdurate and
the jewels remained in pledge. The
earl on his return to town became ac-
quainted with the state of affairs and
his displeasure was expressed in no
measured terms. Finding his efforts
to recover the valuables futile he has,
it is said, had recourse to process of
law, but there is strong probability
that the matter may be compromised
without undue publicity.

How q White Woman Perished in the
Early Days OF Arizona.

How q White Woman Perished In the
Early Days OF Arizona.
The following story is told by one
Of Arizona's early pioneers: In 1864
DIR. Alsap and Lord Duppa, well-known
pioneers, were prospecting with a
party in the Bradshaw mountains on
Hassayampa creek. One morning the
party separated for the purpose Of
hunting. In going up canyon, in
which they were separated from their
companions by high mountains, Dup
pas detachment was attacked by a
large band of Tonic Apaches. The
whites gradually fought their way
across the range with the hope of re-
joining their companions
During the advance Duppa, who was
stationed behind rock, noticed that
he was the particular mark of an In
dian with bow. Several arrows had
fallen at his feet and one struck him
in the arm. Raising his rife he took
aim, and just as he was touching the
trigger the supposed Indian cried,
Don't shootr in good English, but it
was too late, and the body fell over
with life extinct Soon after the two
parties succeeded in forming juno
ton. and the Indians retreated, leav-
ing their dead.
Out of curiosity the party returned
to the place where Duppa killed the
supposed Indian and found that IL was
white woman, evidently 30 years of
age and dressed In all the parapher-
MALTA of the Apaches Extensive in
vestigation was made, but no trace of
her former whereabouts could ever be
obtained.
