be discounted Miss Collins weighs
about 102 pounds, or 1902 ounces. An
ounce of pure gold Is worth $40, an
ounce of coin gold $1S605. We will
assume that her fortune Is pure gold.
1t would weigh 100000 ounces, or more
than 1873 times as much as the woman
who has fallen heir to 1t. She could
gather on to the scales almost all her
living relatives and still not form a
group heavy enough to weigh down
her fortune. Why, l fancy that In pa
per money 1t would weigh more than
she does"
Some one brought a tiny pair Of let
ter scales, and enough bills were piled
on 1t to weigh an ounce. 1t was found
that there were just twenty of them.
Thus an ounce of 81 bills Is worth ex-
actly as much as an ounce Of pure gold.
''Why, If the scales were piled with
500 bills, $5,1S4,000 would weigh as
much as Miss Collins does" continued
the speaker. 'That would leave $2,-
$4,000 still to be accounted for after

The Army Rife in Hunting.

Something for sportsmen to con-
slider seriously, If they intend to get
one Of the new 30-callber army rifles,
is the great penetration Of the bullets
One OF the bullets would kill a man
through a 4-inch spruce tree, or COW
a mile and more away. No ordinary
tree can be depended on to stop one
of these bullets, and II might easily
travel half mile through dense woods
and hit a man far out Of sight with
deadly effect. "Field and Stream"
says that the next Legislature Of our
great game States should pass a law
prohibiting the use Of Jacketed bull
let, because Of the danger to human
beings. Another argument 1t offers in
favor of such law will have great
influence on the men who do not wish
to wound without killing the game.
This class Of bullets Is useless for
large game unless soft-pointed, ut says,
"as 1t rarely kills instantly but allows
the game to die from internal hemor-
rhage, and in terrible agony out Of
reach" When such a rifle Is used
for big game bullet that mushrooms
should be employed. The mushroom
ing bullet will kill anything, as It goes
clear through an elk, moose or deer,
and the force Of the impact would
knock a running grizzly down.-New

Wha1eship from Which Great Results

In the Brooklyn navy-yard lies the
hulk of what is known as the Intelli-
gent Whale. 1t has lain there so many
years among the nautical junk which,
the department from time to time has
acquired that not a person in the yard
can tell to-day the name Of the inven-
tor Yet the United States paid him
quite a sum on account for the pur-
chase of It's whaleship, and expected
to acquire a vessel which would be a
terror to the warships of all other ma
tionS.
The Intelligent Whale was construct
ed to hold a crew of thirteen persons.
Its motive power was propeller turn
ed by a crank manipulated by four
men. It's idea was to sink under war
ships, and, being directed against their
hulls, the crew would fasten a torpedo
thereon, the whale would back off and,
wrish, bang good-by to Mr.. Warship.

OFFICE BUILDING JANlTORS.

''The life of japitor Of one of the

expression of WEAKNESS ON his face as he
looked down at lower Broadway filled

Cnmphor Becoming Scarcer.

Most Of the worlds supply Of cam
phor comes from Japan and Formosa.
OF late years the demand has begun
to exceed the supply, and the question
has arisen how the latter can be main
tanned. One of the reasons why cam
phor Is becoming searcer and dearer Is
said to be that 1t Is extensively used
In the manufacture Of cellulold. At
present camphor Is mainly produced
from the so-called camphor-tree, which
attains a gigantic size in Japan, one
specimen recently measured being 115
feet tall, and having a trunk over 49,
feet in diameter. The tree Is common
In China, but as yet the production of
camphor In that country Is very linn
tied. The camphor-tree Is a member
of the laurel family, and IS related in
genus to the clnnamon-tree. 1t Is said
that camphor can be produced from
other species of trees. In Borneo Il
very aromatic camphor Is obtained
from the natural deposits Of gum on
the trunks of species Of tree indl-
genous to that island and Sumatra

A Terrific Sca-FiUht,

The Prince of Monaco has recently
announced his intention to send his
yacht on an expedition Of discovery

This leads Mr.. Frank T. Bullen to re-

Pernetunl Motion?

Perpetual motion has been the dream
Of the inventor almost ever since the
first invention of any kind was per-
fected. Pliny says that In his time
there were machines which the inven-
tors claimed would work, without stop
ping, for an indefinite length Of time,
and In the patent office of every gov
ernment Of the world there are hun
dreds of devices for securing this end.
One authority states that in the patent
office at Washington there are over
1000 such appliances, for each of which
the inventor hoped success. The per.
petual motion machines, however, have
never succeeded. and never will until
men succeed IN overcoming friction,
the inertia of matter and gravitation
and also in finding material that will
never wear out.
