Position and Sleep.

How many people are i'll the habit Ct
troubling themselves about the exact
point Of the compass to which their
heads happen to be pointed when they
lay themselves down for their nocturnal
rest? One might have gone on suppos-
ing, but for the irrepressible Sir Benja-
min Richardson, that it did not in tn"
least matter whether the head Of ones
bedstead Wee turned north, south, east
or west. But Sir Benjamin is full of
theories ON the subject, and now that he
has expounded them we are in O pos
ton to know that if we turn u face
to the west, like Daddy in the e II
timental ballad. we ought to get thu
soundest sleep, because i'll that case "thc
earth's motion will tend to send til,
blsod to the head"
Here is a suggested cure for insomnia
which is at least worth q trial, and i'll
future a compass should be an indis-
pensable article of furniture in every
we'll regulated bedroom. 1t may sadly
disorganize not a few bedchambers to
arrange the adoption of this westward
position, which may in some cases caus"
almost as much trouble as the reverse
position has occasioned from time 70
time in the ecclesiastical world. But
Sir Benjamin Richardson has spoken,
and it only remains for those who &c
cept him as AN oracle to point their besl
heads due west at all costs and without
delay. London Letter.

NORTHERN PACIFIC LANDS.
Sold to President Winter for the Reorgan
izatiOn for 81, sO5, 900.

Sold to President Winter for the Reorgan-
ization for 81, ;O5, 200.
SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 5.-All of the
lands of the Northern Pacific railroad,
in the state Of Washington, comprising
II. 9O2 sections of: patented and an in
definite quantity of unpatented lands
were sold at public auction by Special
Master Alfred L. Carey. The sale was
under a decree Of the United States
circuit court of the Eastern district OF
Wisconsin. The property was bought
in by Edwin w. Winter for the North
ern Pacific railway company. of which
he is president, for Sl,1O5, 200. A
private bidder attempted to purchase
one tract of 100 acres, but Winter bid it
up to $l5, 600. and took it at that figure.
There was 10 opposition after this.
Winter purchased the next tract for
800, with an option to take the rest of
the patented land at the same figure,
which he promptly covered, depositing
$4,000 in Northern Pacific bonds.
The remaining lands of the company
were knocked down to him for a lump
bid Of 1905 900.

The PetriRed Man Again.

WINNIPEG, Aug. 5.-Mr. Hagel, q.
c., and Mr.. McPherrin have returned
from Argyle, Mimi, whittier they went
to examine a cast which was alleged to
be that of the petrified man, over which
there was litigation here recently. The
measurements Of the body and Of the
cast do not agree and there is no re-
semblance in feature or form between
the two. Those who were present al
the examination expressed the convic'
ton that the cast and the body here
have no relation to each other.

GERMAN EANNNSEOPS.
Some Are Managed by Government and
Others by Individuals.

There is Il royal pawnshop i'll Berlin,
there are state r~awnshcps. ducal pawn
shops, count: paH1>hops, city or NUM-
cipal pawnshODs a1U private pawnshops.
The municipal and private pawnshops
may both exist in the same town. The
rate Of interest was fixed by a law
passed III 1891 at not more than "a per
cent per annum on loans under 20
marks, and not over IL per cent ON
larger sums.
In Berlin the ~pawnshop is a royal in
stitution, and is not allowed to make a
profit. Its surplus goes to charitable
purposes. AT Hanau no interest is
charged on loans up to 3 marks if the
articles are redeemed within six days.
At Hof, in Baden, people are allowed tc
raise money, giving as security the re-
ceipt of their wages w or three weeks
ahead.
At Weimar and Hanau anonymous
pawning is the rule. No names are
asked and no address is given. Provision
is made at Memcl for merchants depos.
iting goods in time of temporary embar-
rassment.
At Bautzcn raw wool is received IL.
pledge. At Brombcrg military accouter-
ments are excluded from the articles
which may be pawncd. The pawnshop
at Detmold will not receive articles i'll
pawn from servants without the consent
of their masters. At Altenberg and one
or two other places no one is allowed to
pawn articles of more than 100 marks
value without the consent of the town
council.
Although private pawnbrokers exist
alongside the municipal institutions, i'll
many towns the latter refuse to do bust
ness with the former. Secondhand deal
ers and pawIbrokers are especially pro-
hibited from rcsorting to the municipal
pawnshop.
A salutary regulation against dealing
with pawn tickets is frequently enforced
The rate of interest f%luctuates a grea'
deal in Germany, and is highest fo'
small sums loaned for short periods
The average is about IL per ccnt and o,
loans issued against securities 4 or
per ccnt.-Berlin Letter.

Phrases for His New York Speech.
OMAHA, Aug. "a special to the Bee
from Lincoln, Ncb., says: When w.
J. BRYAN leaves for New York next
Friday evening. h will carry with him
n draft of the speech which he intends
TO use before the notification committee
in Madison Square garden. He has de-
voted considerable time to 1t already,
but will put a few finishing touches
before it can be declared complete. 1t
will occupy between Il hour and an
hour and IA half i'll delivery and Will
discuss the Chicago platform III detail,
and give his Interpretation thereof. he
is especially indignant at the charge
that he and those who stand with him
on the Chicago platform are to be
classed as anarchists or hat they aim
to break down any of the laws of the
country. Mr.. Bryan has something
to say about the charge in his Omaha
speech at the time of the reception to
him in that city. In his New York
speech, he will elaborate the idea and
roundly denounce the accusation.
IL tohis u
Those who have been taken into his
confidence, and there is certainly one,
say that this speech will astOpish the
country, and that it contains a number
of new and pleasing metaphors never
before used On any stage, and which
have nothing in common with ''crowns
of thorns' or ''crosses of gold" 1t is
understood that Hon. Richard p. Bland
who will be in Lincoln, at the time of
Mr.. Bryan's departure, will accompany
him to New York, appear with him in
