LONDON, May 15.-The birthday
of Florence Nightingale, the great
hospital worker and heroine of the
Crimean war, is being celebrated
generally in different parts.of Eng
land today and the famous little
woman, now in herseventy-six year,
is being showered with letters and
kilograms of eongratulation among
the senders being included Queen
Victoria, President Faure, OF the
French Republic, the Empress Fred
erick, OF Germany, and Gar Nicholas,
OF Russia. Though Miss Nightingale
has been an invalid for many years,
she shows scarcely a trace of her
great suffering and is still able to
continue her omniverous reading
without the aid of glasses. She has
a very comfortable home on one of
the fashionable thoroughfares in
West End, but prefers to spend the
most of her time at Clayton House,
the home OF her sister, Lady Yerney,
in Buckinghamshire.

HAD FUN WITH a FORTUNE.
How Carson Lighted HIS Cigar with "a
800 Bill.

James D., or Jimmy, Carson, as he
was popularity known III Chicago, died
the other night in Washington. He was
returning from his second trip around
the world. He was AZ years old and a
son of General John B. Carson,
AS a money spender he had no equal
in Chicago. His father built the Column
bia theater for him and made Jack Hay-
erly manager. His achievements the
evening the Columbia was opened made
him the talk Of the clubs for several
months Champagne was as free as wa
ter between the acts, and in his exuber-
ance Carson lighted his cigar with a
800 bank note He had money to burn,
figuratively and literally.
In touch with the drama, he develop
ed taste for the profession. He soon
became fayorite with actresses. This
caused domestic discord, which culmi-
mated in the divorce court.
In the meantime Carson was separat-
ing himself from $500, 900 with great
as u 1n64llD6A VI AltO CAAASNGO
club and Washington Park club and a
we'll seasoned man Ct metropolitan tend
encies he INDUCED extravaganza tastes.
His parents repeatedly pleaded with
him to reform. The Columbia passed
out of his hands,
Carson maintained his reputation as
one of the best dresserss in town as long
as his extravaganza was gratitied with
his fathers bank checks. He wore a
81, 900 sealskin overcoat and scorned
underwear which cost less than 500 a
suit
IN the meantime General John B.
Carson died. When the will of his great
estate was probated, it was discovered
that James De Witt Carson had been
cut off without remembrance. The gen
eral bequeathed his wealth to his widow.
A mothers devotion to son, how
ever, threw the cloak of charity around
his faults Since his fathers death the
young man has been living on re-
stricted income. New York World.

PRACTICAL PARIS.
She Has Found out How to Use Bald

She Has Found Out How to Use Bald
Heads For Advertising Purposes.
Paris, which lies awake nights de-
wishing new things, has outdone itself
now in the matter Of freak advertising
The mountebank in motley, the gayly
bedecked student fellows who sing their
songs of pills and potions that cure all
sorts of ills, are things of yesterday.
The bicycle, which, wheeling over the
white payements of the French capital,
leaves behind it, printed in glaring let
tiers upon the asphalt, the advertise
ment of somebody's soap, is no longer a
novelty.
Something newer than these, some
thing more startling than any fern of
poster print, was necessary to get the
attention of Parisians, and the adyer-
Using man has found it. For two weeks
Paris has laughed at quiet, accurately
dressed and decorously behaved gentle
man who sits in the front row of the the
alter with glaring advertisement paint
ed upon the glistening surface of his
bald head. Managers have not been able
to foresee or prevent him. Every pur-
chaser Of a seat in the bald heads row
is apt to be this living billboard, the
wearer of the soap sign. There is no
ground upon which to eject him, and
there he sits, inoffensive and proper,
with his message cleaning to the whole
house, through acts and interludes, and
the audience laughs.
He does not go out during the entr'-
acto and give some one opportunity TO
seize his place The acknowledgements
has no charm for him. He is there to
enforce upon the attention of everybody,
from pit to ceiling, the virtues of his
employer 8 wares, and he does it with per-
sistence. Sometimes he sits out whole
performance, imperturbable as the bass
viel. Sometimes he divides the night
between two or three theaters and
winds up at cafe concert where he has
already become part and parcel of the
performance.-New York Journal

cost that will not exceed so cents per

method whereby the evaporation of am
monia, which passes through revolving
cylinders in large tank filled with fl

that can be readily compressed into

This company has recently ;siir-

certificate Of title having been fur
nished by the Cripple Creek District
Abstract Company of Cripple Greek
We say but little more than the
information given to us by our ex-
pert, and we herewith present his
report as it was made to us. We
also present copy OF the assayer's
certificate, which was made from
ore taken out of the claim by one of
our representatives. We intend to
carry ont the suggestion OF our ex-
pert for the further development OF
the claim, and the directors have
placed $4,000 shares of treasury
stock on sale at the very low price
of 10 cents per share, the proceeds
from the sale OF this treasury stock
to be used only in developing the
property, and the legitimate ex-
penses of the company.
The principal Office of the com
pany will for the present be located
at 1921 Chestnut street, st. Louis,
where the books OF the company
will be open for inspection of any
stakeholder OF record, at any time.
The stock is fullpaid and non-assess-
able.
We believe that with the sale OF
the $4,000 shares there will be suffi-
cient funds to develop the mine to
the extent of striking pay ore. Ii so,
there will be no more stock sold, but
should it become necessary to sell
more stock, the price will he adj
