A strange Coincidence.

A certain peasant and his wife, In
Germany were married on the same
day as the Emperor and Empress, the
peasant's Christian name being Will
liam. Their first child, a boy, was born
on the same day as the crow prince.
after which they had five other sons,
each of whom was born at the same
time as the five younger boys Of the
Emperor. The royal couple were in
formed Of this. and were exceedingly
interested in the very strange coincl-
dence, but this interest was intensified
when. on the last occasion of a royal
birth. viz. the little daughter OF the
Kaiser, It was learned that the peas
ants wife in question had also given
birth to n daughter on the same day.
So astonlshed were the Emperor and
Empress that they stood as godfather
and godmother to this little girl. and
have well provided for her future

SWlNDLlNG ADVERTISERS.
Fcotland Yard Detectives Keen an Eve
Upon dangerous Sharpers,

There is one official at Scotland Yard
who is but little known to the public.
but who all the same works very hard
and successfully for the public GOOD
by closely scanning. day in and day
out, the advertisements appearing in
every London newspaper.
This officials primary duty IS TO keen
n bright lookout for the very numerous
swindling class which advertises for
managers and so on prepared to invest
money; but, quite beyond this. he, i'll

Vertisements rs strike him IN any way

to the heads Of different departments.
He is himself an expert in all matters
that deal with cipher writing, and part
of his duty is to translate every cipher
that may appear, handing over a copy
of the translation TO active members
of the staff when anything is revealed
that justities such a course.
The writer had the privilege the 9th.

Profits OF Authors

ed 100000 from the sale of General
Grants Memoirs" A few authors.
ana you can count them upon the fin
gers OF one hand, do make big money
out OF literature, but let us see what
the ordinarily successful one makes
In the first place the answer to the
question above is that a sale of 1000
copies Is considered a very successful
one, and that a sale of 1000 comics
pays. We are speaking now, say, of a
~cloth-covered novel which retails at
S1.OO.
Inc entire proceeds, then. Of such q
book will fall considerably under
$4,000, for it must be remembered that
a 81 book is not always sold for 100
cents. A l2mo novel contains about
go pages, or 10000 words. On a rough
estimate such a book will cost the pub
Usher about 80 emit a copy. This in
cludes composing, printing and bind
ing. The entire expenses, including a
royalty Of 10 per cent. to the author,
the usual rate. and the advertising, will
amount to 80 cents. For this book,
which costs the publisher 80 cents, he
gets from 90 to So cents, leaving him
a profit of from 10 to 10 cents.
This profit IS generally increased
somewhat by the retail sales of the
publishing house. Publishers are bound
and this is for the protection of the
book stOres-to sell a 81 book for 81.
Enough books are sold by them at this
price to bring up the average profit,
say, to - cents. Thus a publisher who
sells 1900 copies of a novel will make
about $3.50 out Of the transaction-not
a very large profit for the capital in
vested and the risk involved. The
profits of the author at 10 per cent. will
amount to $500, that is to say, his labor
of writing and revising and his time
for which he is not certain of any re-
turn, not to mention the mental wear
and tear, about seven mills a word.
Magnificent pay, and yet he is a sue
ceSsful author.
OF course there are some books, but
they are very few, which make phe-
nomenal success. and these are the ones
which are read about from one end of
the country to another. Most publish
ers say that it hardly pays in this pres.
ent era of cheap paper-covered novels
to publish the more expensive cloth
covered editions.

What Animals Shy At.

Young horses can be led up to a sack
lying on the ground and induced to
pass it by letting them smell it and find
out that it really Is a sack and not the
Protean thing, whatever It may be,
which illusion conjures up for them.
Once the writer saw a very quick and
pretty instance of experiment by touch
made by a frightened pony. 1t was
being driven AS leader in a pony tandem
and stopped short in front Of where the
rails of a steam tramway crossed the
road. 1t first smelled the near rail and
then quickly gave it two taps with its
hoof. After this il was satisfied and
crossed the line. On the other hand, a
donkey always tried to jump the shad-
ows of tree trunks in the road. though
a similar experiment Of touch would
have shown that these were as unreal
as the tram rail was substantial. Last

head against the top Of a stable door

OFFERS su.ao FOR WHEAT.
A Maryland Grain Dealer Will Pay
That Il Bryan Is Elected.

ehs - -s~~~'
Hagerstown, Nd, Oct. 20.-Much
interest has been excited among
the farmers by the proposition
made at the Democratic meeting
held at Mount Pleasant, Frederick
county, a few days ago, by James
II. Gambrill, n wealthy grain dealer
of Frederick City, who agreed to
buy 100000 bushels of wheat and
guaranteed TO pay $i.29 per busbei
therefor in the event ohBryan's
election and the passage of free
coinage bill. He offered as good
security as he gives 10 the banks
with which he deals. Mr.. Gambrill
stated that he had made deal with
one of his Republican customers
already to buy his last summers
crop at $l.20 a bushel. Mr.. Gambrill
is brother OF George 7. Gambrill,
the wealthy grain speculator of
Baltimore.
Blair Lee, Democratic candidate
for Congress, also addressed the
meeting, which was wild with en-
thuslasm. Many farmers around
here sincerely believe the recent
rise in wheat has been caused part.
Iy by the possibility of change in
the money standard.

ANARCHIST THREATS.

of ora.orical fustian. BE that az il

capacity as the mou,hpicce OF the
machinery of "a big party and as
counsel for big corporate Interests,
threatened revolution in case Vim.
J. Bryan is elected 10 The presi-
Lency. The speech was delivered
before the Union Club.
Mr.. Lnutorbach had been arguing
,he necessity of a high tariff. He
had mentioned number of the
channels OF governmental outlay
which ncccssi,a;cd considerable
annual revenue to meet them. He
had grown husky with vehemeuce
and enthusiastic with his subject
under the cordial stimulus of APP
plause when he reached the subject
of pensions. Then il was that he
made a statement truly anarchistic.
He said: Bat it is a bloodless
war. No blood will be shed. At
least not yet; but If they attempt TO
subvert your supreme court; If they
should succeed by any Chance i'll
foisting upon you these horrible
doctrines-anarchisiic, socialistic
and communisticLwliich that plat
form adopted by this Populistic
brood contains, we will not abide

Repeatedly in his speech Mr.. Lau.
terbach had referred TO the South
ern representatives in the House
and the Senate as "that Southern
gang" and to the silver senators oi
the West as "ihat Populistic
brood" He had prophesied thatif
Bryan were elected San Francisco,
and not New York, would become
the business metropolis of the
country. He characterized the
men who formulated the platform
of The Democratic party as devils
aud the platformsas "infamous, die
honorable and a6archistic." Every
one of these appsaIs to sectional =
feeling had been greeted with an
enthusiastic round of applause,
aud when Mr., Lahterbach emphat-
ically declared for his party that II
would not abide by the Issue of the
fall election If it resulted in the
peoples choice Of Mr.. Bryan, he
was enthusiastically cheered.
