Nations Debt to Dolly Madison.

The capture, invasion and burning of
our national capital by British forces I'M
der Admiral Cockburn are graphically
recalled by Clifford Howard i'll the La
dies Home Journal. Mr.. Howard lucidly
tells of the incidents leading up to the
invasion and pictures the terror and ex-
citement of the people of Washington,
who fled shouting, screaming, jostling
one another under foot into Virginia as
the enemy approached. President Madi
son had gone to the front, and his wife
was anxiously awaiting his return in fear
for his safety. The White House attaches
had nearly all deserted their posts, but
N'rs. Madison had packed all her hus-
ba I'd S papers and records, and as she was
alb )ut to abandon the house bethought
herself of Gen. Washington's portrait.
The heavy frame inclosing it was broken
by servant with an ak, and she removed
the canvas with her own hands, keeping
it from falling into the hands of the enc
my. !.
''It was them writes Mr. Howard,
"just as she was in the act of hurrying
away that Dolly Madison was seized with
an inspiration that will ever cause her
name to live in the heart of every true
American. She stopped to think. What

Without moments hesitation she
turned and rushed back into the house.
'Stopl for heavens sake, stopv' cried
her friends, vainly endeavoring to inter
cept her. Regardless of the commands,
regardless of her danger, the brave wom-
an sped to the room containing the treas.
ure for which she was willing to sacrifice
her life. Without attempting to open the
glazed door of the case, she shattered the
glass with her clenched hand, snatched
the priceless parchment and waving it
exultantly above her head, hurried to
the door, where she entered her carriage
and was rapidly driven away in the di-

GOLD BRICKS.
They Have No Trouble in Disposing of
This Kind.

Gold brick men are generally regarded
with suspicion, but it is fact +. that
dozens of perfectly honest and reputable
men come to this city every day with
gold bricks, however, and they are usual
" delivered at the United States Assay
Office in Wall street.
Almost any day except Sunday says the
New York Sun anybody who is watchful
can see procession of five, six or even
seven men struggling from one Of the
Jersey ferry boats, each carrying in one
hand little black case made of harness
father, and having the other hand buried
in the pocket of his sack coat. The little
leather cases are of different sizes, and
each contains bar of gold as nearly pure
as science can make it. 1t has upon it
the stamp of the refiner and needs only
the impression of the Assay Office to
make it even more valuable than it's
weight in gold coin. These bars weigh
from 200 to 800 ounces each, and putting
the value at $40 an ounce one can easily
understand why the six men who go in
single file up from the ferry, through
Broadway, and down Wall street keep
their ewes wide open and one hand in the
coat pocket.
ms particular procession comes from a
Newark refinery, and the gold is extract
ed from lead bullion shipped from the
West The silver comes to town by ex-
press, but the gold is all brought in by
employees of the company and LIFT often they

gold brick men do not attract much at

SECRET DRAWERS.
The Cabinet Makers Still Say They Are
Used by Some Folks.

1t is not alone in stories that secret
drawers, hiding places in furnlture and
private passages underneath houses are
to be found nowadays. They are to be
found also in modern New York. Ac-
cording to a cabinet maker, orders are
frequently received by him for pieces of
furniture made with hidden receptacles.

special work consists in contriving false
bottoms and secret drawers for desks,

notice of the sudden failure in business
of the husband of some women who had
just received from his shop an ingenious
