< A gold coin, first used in France, and
introduced into England in the reign OF
Edward w, was called the angel. Its
value was about ten shillings. 1t was
impressed with St. Michael and the
dragon. hence the name. The angel
was discontinued in the seventeenth
century. This coin was well known in
the days of Shakespeare, who used the
term in various plays. In "The Merry
Wives" he says: "He hath legion OF
angels" and again: Il had myself 20
angels given me this morning" The
bonnet piece was gold coin of James
v. of Scotland, so called from the

bonnet instead of crown, coined in
1880. From their beauty and elegance

Hooked by . Sea Lion.

A seq lion story comes from San
Diego that is substantiated by the skin
of the lion now at the home of the
captor. An angler on the government
jetty at the harbor mouth baited his
hook with q smelt- The hook was
swallowed by small leopard shark.
A large sea lion happened by and was
attracted by the furious antics of the
captive shark as the fish endeavored
to break the line. The lion padded
up and swallowed the shark and the
murderous hook. The barb of the stout
hook became firmly implanted in the
vitals of the lion. Then there was fun
for the angler. The line was tied to
the jetty. Several men aided the angler
in playing the lion. For more than an
hour there was furious fight. The
lion rcsorted to all the cunning known
to his kind to get away. 1t was use
less. His strength was exhausted. The
beast was drawn to the shore and dis
patched with . club - Los Angeles

R,xh. way to warm Bu,ldinss.

There il ample evidence to prove that
the rational heating of buildings was a
well-understood art several thousand
years ago. In the palmy days OF Pom
peirs early existence, before its bnrial
under volcanic ashes, the old Roman
baths were heated by steam, and in
better and far more scientific manner
than is followed at the present time.
The walls Of the buildings were double,
and the steam, at atmospheric pressure,
no doubt, was carried up through these
walls, oil around the rooms to be
warmed, bringing them to tempera-
tnre approximating that OF the steam.
aud the occupants OF the rooms were
thus exposed to . radiation OF warmth
from all directions. In this we have
the true theory OF heating. Follow

Tho Device Used on = P0ndoFouS Truck
When 1t Became Crippled Down Town.
When buggy wagon or other com.
paratively light vehicle breaks a rear
axle, near the hub, where axles usually
break, the driver usually gets n plank
| or light stick of timber, makes one
end fast under the forward part Of
the wagon, and let's the other end trail
to the rear, as support for the broken
axle. It doesn't lift it quite to it's or
dinnry level, but it raises it high
enough, and with the axle thus sup
ported the driver goes to the repair
shop. The other day one of those i'm
mense four-wheeled trucks used for
carrying iron beams and columns ap-
peared downtown with broken rear
axles, broken at the hub on the off side
of the truck.
A piece of plank Or a light stick OF
timber wouldn't do for ponderous
truck like this. Two heavy planks had
been set on edge, with blocks of wood
between them at suitable distances
apart, and then the planLs had been
bolted together witt, bolts running
through CQc DlOCkb. i uC TWO pldAho
thus held on edge were. stout enough,
they were secured to the forward end
of the truck, trailing to the rear in the
usual way; the broken axle rested upon
them at pretty near its usual height.
The wheel now in disuse was slung
with chain under the long high beams
Of the truck.
While the combined planks were am
ply strong to support the axle, still the
pressure upon them was tremendous.
and the square corners had been worn
off and the planlls had been worn away
on the under side until they were
cointed at the ends, thus bringing
long surface of wood on the under
edges of the planks in contact with
the pavement. AS the four big horses
moved on with the great truck there
Was a faint odor of burning wood in
the air, and now and then little trace
of smoke fcated out from under the
ends OF the planlss, from the charring
OF the wood there by friction, as the
planks were drawn along the stone
pavement with the great weight Of the
truck upon them.-N. Y. Sun.
