Artists of New York." the following IS
published in Sundays New York

''Many girl artists marry too soon
for their artistic prospects to mature.
One of these, whose talents gave her
recognition in year, is Miss Mary
Goodwin, one of the clever Goodwin
sisters, of Savannah. In one short
wear she advanced from a modest stu
dent at the League to a general illus
traitor. Then she was claimed by large
newspaper for exclusive services at a
salary that would support whole
family in comfort, even in Gotham.
This young woman will become in
November the wife of G. S. Hubbell,
one of the best known of the Art Direc-
tors of New York. She will go to live
in a beautiful house now being built
according to their combined artistic
tastes.
Miss Goodwin's speciality is figure
work, into which she puts the name
less style that has made her older
sisters fame Three of the Goodwin
sisters will winter in Paris, DESERVING
the art colony of Gotham for year.
Though famous, they are all mere

AN ELOQUENT SPEECH.

One of the very best speeches
made in Durham this campaign was
that delivered by Dheo. f. Klutt2 in
the court house last Saturday might
The speaker was presented to the
audience in a happy manner by L. L..
Lindsay and from that moment till he
closed he held the undivided atten-
ton of the vast crowd. He was logical,
eloquent and never tiresome. He gave
abundant reasons for the faith that
was in him and always presented his
facts in such an interesting manner
that the crowd urged him to go on
when he closed. Should Mr. Kluttz come
this way again the people will hear him
gladly.

YELLOW FEVER
Working Fearful Havoc Among
Spanish Soldiers in Cuba--Six
Thousand Cases in Havana Alone.

Key West, Fla, July 12.-AdYlees
from Havana state that panic Pre-

Guence of the terrible increase OF yellow
fever II the last few days 1t is esti-
mated that fully forty per cent OF the
cases prove fatal. In Santiago de Cuba
there were $500 soldiers in the hospi-
tails.
Major General Linares is stricken and
his life is despaired of The physicians
and nurses are utterly incapable OF
coping with the disease. The epidemic
is also very serious all along the tIocha.
In some cases entire companies have
been stricken. Gen. Arelas and nearly
every member of his staff are i'll. Cap
tain General Weyler has ordered the
erectior OF new hospitals along the
trocha, and will send to Spain for ad-
ditional physicians. In Baracoa, Hol-
gran and other places in Eastern Cuba,
the fever is raging with great viru.ence
and it is spreading to the central points.
From MatanZas comes most distressing
tales. In that city it is said the NOR
tality is about sixty per cent. and that
it is becoming difficult to bury the
dead. The hospitals Of Havana con-
tain nearly six thousand patients, and
every day the number is being in
creased. Friday four hundred and fifty
sick soldiers were brought in from Pi-

KEEP THE CHAIN FREE OF DIRT.

In the Absence of Gear Cases Constant
Cleaning is Necessary.
There is one part of bicycle to
which the ordinary rider does not
give enough attention-the chain on
his wheel Most chains are not cleaned
enough The roads over which the BIZ
cychst rides are covered at all times
with fine dust, which gets into the chain
and causes more or less friction. When
there is no dust there is mud. which is
worse than dust, says the New York
Herald.
Every rider has noticed that if he is
caught in a shower and his chain gets
wet the chain runs much harder. That
is caused by the dust in the chain being
turned into mud by the rain. The mud
makes its way into every part OF the
chain. Oh. TO 81
Oil is the best lubricant for a chain,
but not enough riders use it. With the
chains exposed as they are at present
no lubricant will work we'll for any
length of time. If gear cases were put
on wheels rider would experience none
Of these difficulties referred TO. Gear
cases are in high favor in Europe, and
Why they have not come into general
use here is difficult to understand when
one considers their many advantages.

AFTER charming young girl, charm
ingly gowned, had finished singing most
charmingly) an intricate operate Sc
lection at a woman's club meeting the
ether day, everybody rushed up and
congratulated the mother OF so lovely a

mother, finally. "for it cost more than
$1,000. OF course" as her listeners gave
a little gasp, Il don't mean that I regret
having spent that much money on my
daughter-far from it. Emily is a love-
~ girl. ard she has made the most o.
her advantages, but when people come
up to me, as they invariably do on oc-
casions of this sort, and in perfectly
off-hand and matter OF fact way, thank
me for my daughters accomplishments.
l sometimes wonder if they realize what
the accomplishments cost in cold hard
cash tell you, it's no joke from the
financial or any other point of view, to
bring up a daughter. Yes, it amounts
to much more than $1,000, what with
the year of study abroad, and that, too,
simply her musical education alone; it
doesn't include her years at kindergar-
ten, lay boarding schools. nor all the
extras that were necessarily entailed.
So, when you listen after this to Emily's
warblings, don't think that it's just like
the birds'-all nature. pure and simple.

Sells for Many Thousand Times IT'S

To sell for 81 $50 what cost 2 cents
is pretty fair profit-big enough to sat
isv the keenest trader. That was what
an article brought recently in London
which at one time no one would nave
given more than cents for. In fact,
the great mass OF mankind would not
give more for it at the present time un-
less with a view of finding some one
who would be willing to give more
than its intrinsic value for 1t. IL was
an English penny which brought the
uLheard-of price named. 1t is one or
the rarest coins in the world. 1t is a
gold penny coined in the reign Of Henry
Ill 1t is supposed to be the only one
in existence and is closely watched.
When the numismatic who WINS it dies,
or gOes broke buying such curios, ard
has to sell his collection or starve 10
death, the osher numismatics lie in watt
at the auction to Outbid each other, says
an exchange.
The history Of this particular golden
penny is unknown further back than the
time OF the late DR.. Murchison. OF Eng
land, who had fire collection OF rare
coins Probably it lay in the cabinet
of some Old family for generations, unit.
an irreverent spendthrift scion turned
it Loose for what it would bring. Capt.
Murchison recognized the value OF the
coin from the collectors standpoint, and
when it was put up at auction he got 1t
for f130-about $3.50.
This fixed its value, &C Capt. Murchi-
sen was recognized as an authority.
Every time it has been sold since. it
has brought more. At Capt. Murchi-
sons death his collection was sold at
auction, and Rev. E. ]. Sheppard bid in
the penny for f140-about $500.
lis next owner was Mr.. Montague,
vice president of the London Numismat-
ic Society. He gave f205, or something
over $1,000 for it. Last month Mr..
Mcntague's collection went under the
hammer, and when he held up The RI e
coin and said: How much am l offered
for this penny?" the bidding started at

1t was bid up rapidly until is reached
$3.50, at which figure it was knocked
down."

Of the continent and find markets for
American wares, though the blow is in
direct. is a most potent stab in the
vi,als of McKinleyism All Of these eX-
ploring gentlemen knew before they
started on their quest that they would
have to encounter in the countries to
which they go the strong and estab-
lished competition of European rivals.
The fact that they go under such cir
cumstances must be taken as tanta-
mount TO an admission that they are
able to compete with those rivals in
other markets. There is further direct
proof Of their ability in this direction
in the remarkable increase in our ex-
PORTS of manufactures. If it be true that
they can sell their wares at advantage
in foreign markets. what need is there
for further protection" in the home
market?
When manufacturers begin to look
for markets in ether countries a long
step has been taken toward enamel
pated trade and better times for every
body except the Trusts.

iOUIO HISTORY.

Inaccurate in some things, and this is
being corrected in Ohio and elsewhere,
1t gives the city of Cleveland's net ton
mage in lake commerce az 100000,
when the true figures are said to be less
than half that amount Readers will
be surprised, in5eed, to be told that OF
all the world only the Clyde surpasses
Cleveland in shipbuilding, and it may
be well to caution them that this state
merit is denied. Belfast, it is said, has
built about as much tonnage in one
year as Cleveland in three years, and
this exclusive Of var ships.
More strangely still will it strike the
average reader to find Massachusetts,.
Virginia and New York credited as the
States from which Ohio mostly received
her early population, with no mention
Of Connecticut, the original owner Oh
the Western Reserve. Connecticut Is,
of course. protesting against this. En-
phasis is laid upon the number OF men
distinguished or useful in public affairs
tha. Ohio has produced, and Ewing,
Ranney, Bingham, Garfield, Hayes and
VaTandigham are mentioned among the
number, but there is no reference at all
to John Sherman. Mr.. Sherman has a
plain grievance in this omission.
