NOT A PHlLANThROPIST.
Although He Willingly Gave a New Floor
For an Old One.

Although he Willingly Gave New Floor
For an Old One.
It is not very often that such SEEM
ingly philanthropic offer is made by one
business man to another as that told Of
by a partner in an old bullion house to
q reporter
"Not long ago." he said, "a dealer
in gold and silver heard that one floor
of building which had not been occu-
pied for some time was to be rented,
but that the prospective tenant had in
sisted that a new floor be laid before he
take possession, as the old one had be-
come very much worn. The bullion
dealer knew that the previous occupant
had been a manufacturer OF jewelry and
had been in business in the place for
many years. He promptly visited the
owner Of the property and told him that
he would put in new floor Of the best
wood for nothing. The owner made a
few inquiries, but the dealer said very
little in reply, except that he thought
he would manage to scrape good deal
Of gold and silver dust from off the
floor His offer was accepted. The wood
for the new floor and the labor for lay
ing it cost about 5000.
"The old flooring was burned and
the ashes put through course of re-
duction. The result was that the bullion
dealer obtained nearly $500 for the gold
and silver which were brought out, or a
profit Of about 100 per cent ON the oper-
alton.
EVERY manufacturer Of jewelry or
worker in the precious metals calculates
that he will lose about $500 in 'satu-
rating new quarters of the usual loft
size. The gold and silver dust penetrates
the pores of the wood and small parti-
cles are ground into the floor. After
Just 80 much is lost in this way the
waste ceases and all dust that falls to
the floor or adheres to the wall may be
swept up or off and saved. The sweep
ings in these factories and in bullion
offices are always saved and reduced. 4"

Greeting In the Pool.

The central pool at the aquarium is
80 feet in diameter. In this pool there
are among other fish three handsome
weakfish, each weighing about pound
and q half. Sometimes the weakfish
swim about in company, sometimes two
together and one by itself. Sometimes
the three move about separately, but it
seems as though they knew one another.
The other day two Of them started
around the big pool in opposite direc-
tiona Meeting ON the other side, they
halted side by side in the water for q
moment, as two men might halt on
meeting in the street, and after this
mute greeting they started up their fins
and went each its way. New York Sun.

UNDER THE SNOW.

Under the snow lies secret, my dear.
Under the snow,
And IL whispers the coming Of roses fine
And the golden bell Of the jessamine vine
This secret under the snow.
Under the snow sleeps a song. my love,
Under the snow,
And. its notes unawake to buttercups fair
Or the violets' call in soft summer air.
This song sleeps under the snow.
Under tho snow lisps prayer, my sweet,
Under the snow,
And It melts in hope on the crocus leaf
And promises life in the hyncinth wreath,
This prayer down under the snow.

HENRY poLLx,s BAIL poSp.
Amount Fixed ut $4,000 by Judge

Amount Fixed Mt S3O,OOO by Judge
Gordon.
The celebrity with which the news
regarding the filing Of the new
information reached Henry Boln and
his friends is something remarka-
BILE, despite the fact that 1t was kept quiet
by the authorities. 1t was comparatively
early Friday afternoon when Judge Gordon
was called to the telephone to answer an
inquiry regarding the amount OF bail that
would be required OF Boln. AS the man was
not yet under arrest, the police Judge had
nothing to say.
1t had been expected that Bolln would be
brought into police court in the morning for
the purpose of learning the amount OF his
bond, but nothing of the kind was done.
1t is understood that his attorney was out
during the morning in an effort to secure
bondsmen even though the amount Of bail
had not been fixed. Assistant County At
torney Day was present yesterday on the
expectation that the matter would come up.
Judge Gordon in the afternoon fixed the bond
at 100000
1t is understood that Bollns attorney IS
finding great difficulty in obtaining bondsmen.
Bolln's bond on the other charges against
him was put at $4,000, and 1t was only
after hard work, and after he had been in
confinement for several days, that suretes
were found.
