MONEY MADE BY WOMEN.
Females Who Vie with Men In Ou,wit-
ting Uncle Sam.

Females Who Vie with Men In Ou,wit-
ting Uncle Sam.
Chief Hazen, the head of the Secret
Service of the treasury department, is
now in Canada, whittier he has gone to
extradite the noted woman counter
feiter, Mrs. Mack. There is no doubt
that she will be convicted and sent to
the penitentiary for her crimes.
Mrs. Mack is not the only woman who
is under the arm of the law for this Of
fense, for there are at least half a dozen
more who have been caught Showing
the queer" during the past twelve
months. Very few women make the
bogus money, and almost the only part
they play, as a rule, is to pass it, The
men make the stuff and the women take
it out to shop with, and thus get 1t into
circulation. But if a woman is once
suspected she is easily caught, because
her sphere of action Is so much more
limited than that of a man. Anna
Kelly of San Francisco is about the
only woman, except Mrs. Farran, who
makes the money herself. Her method
is to initiate the coins of the country.
This is done by having an alloy COW
cred with silver, and by putting glass
and bit of copper into the compost
tion, the weight and metallic ring OF
the genuine money are admirably imi-
tated. All Of the pictures of these
women are in huge case in the room
Of the Secret Service division. One
woman so decidedly objected to having
herself photographed that she was
sketched while in court, and the pen
ahd-ink drawing is now preserved
among the other photographs of the
collection. AS rule, the women are
rough in appearance and illiterate, and
have hard countenances.

A NEW WANT.
rhs yeuninine Desire For and tnduigencs
In Afternoon Tea.

rhs Tsninine Desire For and t.du,gsnes
In Afternoon Tea.
There Is no doubt that the now almost
universal practice of drinking tea in
the afternoon has created a new human
want, and thereby decreased the de-
pendence of mankind upon external
conditions of happiness. 1t has re-
moved the race one step further from
the tub of Diogenes and added another
link to that ever-lengthening chain Of
use and want with which we are bound.
Whether the habit Is or is not physi-
cally injurious one, Is not worth dis
putting. The question is, upon which,
as, indeed, every other question OF
dietary, the truth is beyond the power
Of the human facilities to determine.
The most careful investigation ofmedi-
cal opinion yields results Of no more
significance than the fact that tea
drinking in the afternoon is severely
condemned by all doctors who do not
indulge in it themselves. Nor is much
additional light thrown upon the mat
ter by the confident assurances of other
medical experts that it's mischievous
effects may be largely mitigated, if not
wholly neutralized, by eating thin
bread and butter. This belief may be
held as "pious opinion" but the phil
osopher will probably argue that to
spoil his dinner for fear of impairing
his digestive powers would be to sacri-
flee the end to the means. And this
argument will apply, of course, with a
fortiori cogency to proposal to amend
the o'clock program by inserting the
word beef" before the word tea"
If lunch has been described as an "in-
suit" to the meal which has preceded
1t, and an ''injury" to that which is to
follow, this unholy practice Of bouil-
Ion swilling in the afternoon must de-
serve to be qualified in still harsher
terms. Its reflections upon the ade-
quacy Of lunch may be less outrageous
than those of lunch upon breakfast.
but the blow which it aims at dinner
will be delivered at closer quarters.
Where, moreover, is the line to be
drawn? asks London exchange. If
soup in the afternoon, why
not fish? Nay, why not ''the
eggs and the ham, and the
raspberry jam" of the wears hos
pitable teatable in THE Sorcerer?" The
door will have been opened, the thin
edge Of the wedge-at first, no doubt.
in the apparently innocent form Of
fingers of dry toast-will have been
introduced, and before we are well
aware of it we shall find ourselves In
volved in riot of mullins and crum-
pets, or wallowing in the rude plenty of
that disastrous meal known to the dar-
ing spirits who habitually grapple with
it as high tea"

Throat PARALYSIS.
Nrom the Courier Herald, Saginaw, Mich.)

It was publicly talked all over Glare
County for some time before the Cou-
rier-Herald sent a reporter to Dover to
investigate the Coulter matter. He
finally went, and we publish to-day his
report. The Coulters are prominent
people, though Mrs. c. In response to
the question whether she objected to be-
ing interviewed, said, Certainly not"
Her story follows: About IA years ago
We decided to take up our abode in
Dover and everything went along
smoothly for seven years, business

PEI c9ment we accumulated quite an

years rolled by and we now have 5
children, but sickness made its way into
our household, and doctors bills flooded
upon us. until we have nothing left but
our home and our children. Everything
went to satisfy the claims Of physicians.
About three years ago had miser-
able feeling at the back Of my ears, my
right hand became paralyzed and the
paralysis extended to my arm and

A Kansas oracle is authority for
saying that suit will be brought in
the district court of Shawnee county
next week by the hotels of Topeka
against the leaders of the late Demo
cratic silver convention. Damages
to the extent OF many thousands of
dollars will be asked, the plaintiffs
alleging that they are out that amount
by reason of the extensive baking
which they did and which spoiled
on their hands. The leaders of the
convention are held to be liable, hav-
ing led the hotel keepers into the loss
by Oyerestimating the crowd to be
present. One hotel enumerates fifty
prune pies that were spoiled, another
nine dozen boiled eggs, and another
fifty pounds of fried liver. The hotel
men also say that they advanced
money to the leaders on the strength
OF their promises of a big crowd.

Money Enough to Do without Aiiimony

Money Enough to Do without Aiiimony.
1t is reported in New York that the
application OF Mrs. Edith Candee to
compel her husband, Edward Candee,
the wealthy builder, to pay her ali
mony and and counsel fees pending
the trial OF her suit against him for
absolute divorce, has been denied by
Judge Andrews, in supreme court
chambers. Judge Andrews says that.
in view Of the large property owned
by Mrs. Candee, and the willingness
of the husband to support the child
rem, but her determination to retain
their custody, he cannot see that the
application can be granted. Taking
into consideration the means of both,
he does not consider that alimony is
necessary to support her while the
suit Is pending. There is on both
sides money enough for Candee, and
the children will not suffer.
