A DOG THAT CAN TEST METALS.
silver Tip Knows Good Money from
Bad, Every Time.

Bad, Every Time.
No bank teller in Iowa has truer
instinct for real, genuine cart-wheel
silver dollars than has Rock Rapids
dog called Silver Tip, says the Chicago
Times-Herald. Silver Tip is tan-colored
and weighs about ten pounds. All his
two years of life he has been the prop
erty of Landlord Barber, of the Lyon
hotel, at Rock Rapids, but it is only
within the last year that his power of
immediate insight into the nature of
metals has become known to his owner.
The way Tip manifests his powers,
as his owner puts it, is as follows: If
one takes a pile of coins the size of an
American dollar-say trade dollar q
Mexican dollar, a five-franc piece and
some counterfeit dollars-and puts one
genuine dollar piece in the center of
the pile, Tip will rummage around
among them for an instant and then
snatch the good coin and proceed to
take care of it in approved dog fashion
to an accompaniment of growls and
bites. Or if one rolls a coin along the
floor Tip can tell every time whether
it is good stuff to be chased.
Tip never makes mistake, and there
isn't bit of doubt about his powers.
He has been tested by Chicago. bust
ness men and by committees of Iowa
scientists. He gets no human help in
his work. The good coin is not marked
in any peculiar way for his benefit,
nor is it scented. Anyone can use his
own coin in the experiment. Nor does
Tips powers depend on signs from his
master. The latter leaves the room
without detracting from the dogs abil-
ity in the least.
Mr.. Barber has refused all offers for
the purchase of Tip.

KITE FOR A LIVE DoLLIE.
A Little Girl Travellers Queer Com.
pantOn.

A little girl II years old recently
Travelled all the way from Wichita,
Kan, to Rochester, n. Y, with no COM
panion but her kitten. She was allowed
to have the pet in her lap, although it is
against the rules of railroad companies
to allow animals in the passenger coach.
Perhaps this may have been due partial
ly to the fact that the kitten was dressed
like folks" in clothes. The cat was
as handsomely attired as favorite doll
and infinitely more amusing. Her little
dress did not seem novelty to her, and
the little waist with bishop sleeves and
lace at the ankles, or more properly
wrists, was dainty, while handsome
lace baby cap completed the most
fetching toilet.
The little girl apologized for the state
of ldttie's clothing. as she said she had

MILLIONS IN PAINTING.
The HertfOrd-wallnce Collection Is
Worth S7,5OO,OOO.

The celebrated HertfordWallace col
lection of pictures bequeathed to the
British nation by Lady Wallace is esti
mated to be worth S7,50O,000. Her mag
nanimity, says the Boston Transcript
is all the more noteworthy because she
was struck off the queens visiting list
many years ago.
Sir Richard Wallace died on July 20,
1890, leaving behind him the most IA
nous art collection of any Englishman.
The whole of Sir Richards great wealth
and the peerless collection of pictures
(which includes 10 examples of Nelson
Ter and Is of Greuze) were given to his
wife for her own free disposition. Prior
to his death, however, he expressed his
wishes to his wife that after her death
his superb collection of works of art
should go to England's national gallery
and that his wish in this respect should
be carried out she arranged several
years ago.
The magnificent Hartford collection
comprised when it passed into Sir Rich
ard Wallace's hands a splendid assort-
ment Of paintings, porcelains, bronzes,
decorative furniture, jewelry and other
works Of art. His own purchases DUR
ing the past 30 years included many of
the choicest examples of old japanese
art, which he was one of the first to
bring to the attention of European
connoisseurs; of the masters of the
italian renaissance, notably the produc-
lions in silver of Benvenuto Cellini and
his immediate followers and of modern
French painters.

BRICKS OF STRAW.
Mixed with Tar md Formed Into
Cubes Under Pressure.


A Polish newspaper announces new
invention made by a Warsaw engineer
who proposed to the city authorities
a quite original material for street paw
ing. He uses cubes of compressed straw
instead of the wooden blocks used in
some other European countries! The
manufacture of these straw cubes Is
carried on according to peculiar proc
ess. Straw is cut in pieces of GER
tain length, impregnated with fluid,
the composition of which is a secret of
the inventor, and then pressed in
blocks. The inventor buys up straw
in, bales, binds them closely together
with wire, and then immerses the en-
tire bundle into ahot solution, the smell
of which indicates that several materials
like pitch, rosin, tar and other of the
same kind form part of the mixture.
These bundles of straw remain for a
certain length of time in the solution
and are then subjected to heavy pres
sure in a machine, which they leave In
the shape of ready cubes. According
to the inventor, this paving material
is cheaper than wood, but more durable
and stronger, and at the same time
more elastic.

IN A LONDON THEATER.
A First Night rs Seen by an Artist
Every One in Evening Dress.

A London audience is brilliant. Every
one is in evening dress and the audience
is often more entertaining than the
play, says Scribner's. This is espe-
cially true on the first night. At such
times the pit is watched most anxiously
by the management, as the success of
the piece generally depends on its YER
dict. It has often occurred to me when
have seen people on storm night
forming line on the pavement out
side the pit entrance, taking it all seri-
ously enough to stand there for hours
before the doors were opened, that by
letting them inside the management
might improve their spirits and they
in their turn might be more gentle.
And it has. also occurred to me when
I have seen a stout man standing in
the aisle fumbling for a sixpence or u
shilling in pockets that probably only
contain bank note and gold piece
that the management might further
improve the spirits of its audience by
doing away with women ushers and by
selling the programme at the same
time it sells the seat, for it is hardly
fair to the first act of play to make
it overcome the fretfulness caused by
annoying attendants before it can hope
to amrse. But the second act is sure
to have a fair start and if the play is
good from there on it will have no rea-
son to complain of it's audience.
