The Persian Way.

The Shah of Persia may lie only il

and he does not dare exactly to SLAP
Queen Victoria Of Kaiser William OF
the back when the potentates chance
to meet; but, so far as matters in Per
sia are concerned, when the Shah
makes law it is generally enforced
to the letter. Persian laws, as ira
dition informs us, have always had o
fashion of getting themselves obeyed
and the habit has continued even
through the nineteenth century.
"A case in point may be cited in the
matter of Persian lamb skins. Per-
Sian lamb skins are and have long
been an article of staple demand in
the commercial world. They have
commanded such good prices that the
supply was hardly equal to the de
mand. Consequently, when the Shah
one day ordered spring lamb with
mint sauce, the cook was obliged to
confess that the dish was beyond the
command of the Persian treasury. OF
course the cook was promptly be
headed, but the Shah could not find
another cook who would agree to
furnish spring lamb whenever his
majesty desired to indulge in that
delicacy.
This naturally irritated the Shah.
After consulting with three or four OF
his most trusted advisers, who could
see no way out of the difficulty aud
who consequently disappeared from
their homes and society in a mysteri.
GUS manner. the Shah finally decided
that the commerce of Persia was
threatened by the extinction of Per.
sian sheep and Persian lambs. Con.
sequently, he made decree that any
person found with lamb skins in his
possession fNnurposes of trade OF
commerce would be fined heavily.
Since then the export trade in Persian
lamb skins has stopped with q blunt
and nauseating jar.-Boston Adver.

AbyssinIan Currency.

For small change the Abyssinians
use the amole, or bar of salt. This is
a block of hard crystallized salt, about
ten inches long aud two and quarter
inches in breadth aud thickness,
slightly tapered toward the end; five
go to the dollar at the capital, but its
value varies according to the distance
it has to be brought from Lake Arral,
a salt lake near the entrance to the
Red Sea. People are very particular
about this, too; if it does not ring
like metal when flicked with the finger
nail, or if it is cracked or Clipped,
they won't take it. 1t is token Of
affection, also, when friends meet, to
give each other lick of their respec-
tive amoles, aud in this way the ma
terial value of the bar is also de-
creased.
For still smaller change cartridges
are used, of which three go TO the
salt. 1t does not matter what sort
they are, whether scatter gun" or
rifle cartridges, nor, in the latter
case, does it matter whether they are
Berdan, Gras, Remington or any other
ammunition. Some sharpers use
their cartridges in the ordinary way,
and then put in some dust and q
dummy bullet to make up the differ
ence, or else they take out the powder
aud put the bullet in again, so that
possibly in the next action the unhap-
py seller will find that he has nothing
but miss-fres in his belt; but this is
such a common fraud that no one takes
notice of it, and bad cartridge seems
to serve as readily as a good one

Business Bars the prunkard.

Drunkenness to-day Is deemed dlsrepu-

little while ago 1t was looked upon simply
as u misfortune" writes Edward W. Box
In the Ladies' Home Journal. every
line Of business shuts It's doors absolutely
to the drunkard. 1t has no use for him.
Business competition has become so keen
that only the men of the steadiest habits
can find employment. This fact the ha-
bitual indulger in alcoholics has found
out and the different cure establishments
for rdrunkenness-and Godsends they are,
too, to humanlty-are to-day filled with
men who have come to a realization Of the
changed condition. The man OF steady
habits is the man Of the hour, and the
drunkard realizes this. In the social
world the same thing is true. The excess
sive indulgence OF even few years ago
would not be tolerated at any dinner to-
day. Society has become intolsrant OF
the behavior which inevitably results from
excessive indulgence in drinking, and men
realize this. 1t is bad manners to-day to
drink to excess. Good taste is spreading,
and moderation is necessarily following"

BILL IN CONFERENCE.
Provision For Silver Coinage Will
Be Modified.

Washington, June THE Republican
members of the conference committee on
the war revenue bill were in caucus for
about four hours today, and it is stated
by members of the caucus that they prac-
tically reached an agreement on the most
important items of difference between the
two houses. They relate to the coinage
of the silver bullion. the form of the bond
provision and the amount of the bonds
the inheritance tax, the duty on tea, ETC.
These questions have not yet been raised
in the full conference and the Republicans
decline to state any points of their agree
ment. The general impression among
senators is that there will be some pro-
vision for coinage of the Seigniorage, and
possibly all the silver bullion in the treas
ury, but it is not believed that the terms
of the senate provision will be accepted
without material modification.
The result of the Oregon election
strengthened those opposed to making
any concession to silver, but it also had
the effect of causing the western Re
publican senators to be all the more
clamorous for recognition. They express
confidence that their representations Will
not go UNDECIDED. and they profess to
speak upon assurances from Republican
members of the conference.
Two sessions of the full committee were
held, but in these only matters of minor
Importance were passed upon, and as
tiers were accepted. Among the changes
was one in the beer tax provision making
it definite that the stock on hand ex-
empted should be the stock in the hands
of dealers and not of brewers.
The house 'confereeS are making a de-
termined contest to relieve insurance
agents from the license of S12 a year, and
they have indicated a tendency to allow
the tax on bankers, brokers, theatres,
etc, to stand if the insurance agents are
not taxed. They are also making an on
slaught on Senator Chilton's amendment
extending the provisions in regard to
medicines to other articles,
but the senate's representatives indicate
a disposition to yield on this point
Senator Allison expressed the opinion
when adjournment was taken for the
night that the committee could conclude
its work tomorrow. but that it would not
be able to report before Thursday.

plenty of ice water in the tank; that
meals are served in proper style, and all

the Western is about the same as the
Union Pacific, judging from appear
ances. The Short Line also caught

Washington, June Preparations are
substantially complete at the treasur..
department to invite offers for the bonds
for carrying on the Spanish war as soon
as the bonds are authorized by congress.
There will not be n delay of two days in
issuing a circular, stating the terms under
which the bonds are offered, and inviting
bids at par. Envelopes have already been
prepared, addressed to every national
bank, to the postmaster at every money
order office, and to the representatives OF
certain express companies who have Of
fered to aid in the placing of the loan.
The circulars announcing the loan Will
be placed in these envelopes and dis
patched as soon as the exact terms of the
act of congress are known.
1t is the present intention to offer $780,
0ee0 600 in bonds at once. reserying the
right to issue an additional 500 0000 900 un-
der the proposal of the minority of the

issue becomes necessary.
Thirty days will be given for receiving
bids before the loan is allotted. Allot-
ments will be made at once, however, for
the full amount of all bids for $1,000 or
less. 1t is not anticipated that these will
reach a sufficient amount to absorb the
whole loan, but it is desired to give the
preference TO small bidders.
