During the recent earthquake at Rome.
which took place November l at 4:3S in
the afternoon, people rushed from their
houses TO the nearest lottery offices to
play the numbers 1, 4, 3S: there was also
a run on 4, which stands for earthQua Ike.
But something went wrong. as no one
of these numbers was drawn.

TERRELL AND THE TURK.


The one bright ray OF sunlight that per-
colates through the Egyptian atmosphere
of the Orient is that which is shed from the
countenance of Minister Terrell, repHsent-
ative of the United Statesat Constantinople.
The manner in which Terrell is bossing
the misguided and miserable Turk is posi-
lively sublime. Nothing else at all ap-
oacling it can be found written down in
the annals of diplomacy.
If there is a missionary in either Euro
pean or Asiatic Turkey who has not been
protected by Terrell it is because Terrell
did not know OF his or her existence. He
has but to discover the whereabouts of the
threatened enthusiast when he at once
arises to hts full height, and with fine
Texan dramatic fervor. remembering the
speech of that other great minister, Richie
lieu, draws around his or her head the
magic circle of the power OF Terrell.
Every day the cable bears abroad ac-
counts of the magnificent work of Terrell
to delight the world. Once in a while
in a vague way some obscure ambassador
from another country is mentioned. Occa-
sionally it is suggested that what is known
as ''the powers" are trying to influence
the obstreperous Turk. But Judging from
the press dispatches Terrell is the vast, om-
nipresent, omniscfent omnipotent force
which solely and alone has power to spur
the more or less sublime Porte into action.
and compel it to issue commands for
the safety of the helpless creatures over
whom Terrell has thrown the shadow Of
his shield.

GOLD ENODES.

Orders for gold shipment are now all in
for the week and they make a grand total
of nearly So, 900. coo, which is the largest
sum drawn out in any one week since the
remarkable drain of gold begun two years
ago.
Predictions are made in banking circles of
New York that the order for next week will
be very large, ard that at the very least the
amount of gold in the Treasury will be re-
duced considerably below the $50, 900, 600
mark, and that certainly before the LIST of
January another bond issue will be impera-
tive.
The agents of foreign houses in New Yopl;
seem to have everything their own way.
The gold goes out and does not return.
Prophecies about the effect of grain and
cotton crop movements, of restoration of
balance of trade in favor of America. of in
crease of the bulk of gold from pa yment Of
customs, are all shown to be false.

York was only remarka BILE for what it did

met a rebuff. When the emperor invited the
Prince of Wales to a shooting party, with a
request that he send list OF guests to be in

the name of Baron Hirsch. The emperor
was Jew. and the prince refused To accept
the Invitation.
But the English aristocracy do not OBJ
ject to the baron, for he is renowned for
his liberality. He always subscribes heavily
10 charities, and gives to all the hospitals
in London. Once there was a lady at his
country house who came down to brea kfast
in what the other women declared was
silk petticoat and not a gown. The baron
Immediately offered her the prettiest dress
that she could buy in Paris, and she ac-
cepted. No wonder the ladies like him.
He is always giving away cigar cases set
with diamonds, and other costly knick-
knacks.
As for the men. unlimited cartridges are
provided al shooting parties, nd IL man
comes without gun the baron always has
extra guns. and if he takes a fancy to his
guest is apt to present him with a costly
fowling piece. No wonder he is popular
with the British aristocracy.

noon the room was distressiagly crowded,
and fusillade of ecstatic exclamatiuRs

Clarence Watkins has been

state fish hatchery-a position
which his father, S. S. Watkins.
recently deceased, held since the
institution Was established. The
elder Watkins had been in the fish
hatchery business as a private
enterprise for many years, and
supplied the demand for stocking
lakes and streams with fish, and
made very good income from the
business. When the state estab.
lished the hatchery and supplied
the little fish free, it, of course,
ruined his business, and he ac-
~cepted the SUPPLEMENTARY Of the
public hatchery. The son is quite
