AMERICANS IN LONDON.
Stntisticinn Says That They spend
S1O,OOO.OO0 Annually I'm the
Worlds Metropolis.

Some London statistician announces
that Americans spend in London more
than S10,000,000 every season, and he
declares that the greater part of this
comes from the Americans living there
permanently or for some months at
time, and not from the transient Wis.
itors who stay for only a few days. The
American entertainments are said to be
looked upon now as regular feature
of the season and play an appreciable
part in its brillancy. Shopkecpers find
that Americans are generally more lib.
eral in their dealings than English peo.
pie of the same wealth and position,
The number of Americans residing per.
manently in London is now estimated
at 10000. There are nearly as many
more during the average summer, al.
though in years of eXpositions or spe.
cialevents this figure is much increased.
a New Yorker who recently returned
from London was impressed with the
small number of his fellow-citizens
who seemed to take up their residence
there. The number of New Workers
among the Americans who live per.
manently in London is said to be dis
propCl ,ionately small. The ma joritv
of these expatriated citizens of the
United States are said to come from
the middle west.

AN HONORED DOG.
The In teIIiacnt Animal Was Accordes
. Pleasant Reception by Great
Britain's Qucep.

"Tim,' the half-breed Irish and Air.
dale terrier who collects contributions
at Paddington station for the widows
and orphans fund OF the Great West
ern railway employees, was presented to
her ma icsty the queen one day recent
ly, says the New York Journal. AS the
royal carriage rolled up TO the station
Sir John Mcneil drew the attention of
Princess Henry Of Eattenbcrg TO the
dog, and the princess spoke to her maJ-
esty, who was SO interested in the story
of "rim" that she at once directed that
he be brought forward to her carriage.
Inspector Bush, on whom the order de-
volved, captured Tim" who was rather
negligently groomed for royal rccep-
ton, and brought him into the pres
ence of the queen. She was sitting ON
the off side of the carriage, and the
dog was brought up to the further side.
Her majesty smiled when Tim" was
held up for royal inspection, and re-
marked that he was "a noble old dog"
while the princess dropped sovei eign
into the dogs box. When placed on the
ground "Tim" stood up on his hind legs
and barked Thank you!" three times
a trick taught him by the station
master-and then ran off to renew an
interrupted interview with rat.
Tim" has been collecting for over
seven years at the Paddington station.
and during that time has taken in just
$l,040. His daily receipts have never
fallen below ninepence. while they once
rose rs high as 81 sbillngs. He has
never had blank day. AS a special re-
ward for his services the authorities
permit him to go unmuzzled, and so far
he has not forfeited his privilege by
biting anyone.

"TEDDY" IS A SAD BIRD NOW.
Wen Meaning Bald Eagle That Served
as Rough Riders Mascot Has
Met Sore Defeat.

After well-meaning bald eagle has
served as a mascot for the rough riders
and yanquished every other inhabitant
of his cage since the war, it comes hard
to be thrashed by two bald-headed in
truders, who never saw Cuba or
squawked defiance at hostile Spaniards.
And doubly hard is it to be used as an
animated mop by still another pair of
shiny-pated fighters, says the New
York Press.
That is the reason why Teddy" the
eagle who brought luck to Col. Roose-
velt's regiment, now makes his bed on
hard rock near The ground, while his
four conquerorS look down on him
from the highest perch of the eagle
cage in the Central Park zoo. TEDDY"
was boss of the cage until Superintend-
ent Smith introduced pair of bald
eagles named the Heavenly Twins"
They proceeded, by working together,
TO make TEDDY" hang his head in hui
initiation, and another pair that was
brought In later made matters worse
for the once proud bird. "Teddy"
fought hard, but he had no more chance
than the Spaniards whom he once de-
rided.

Business of the Week.

Because every prospect pleases, it
is the right time to watch most closely
for signs of trouble. But it is not easy
TO find them when the volume of busi
ness is 63.7 per cent. larger than last
year and 75.5 larger than in 1899, the
best OF all years except the last, or
when failures continued the smallest
ever known, or when the exports OF
staples begin to improve materiaIly,or
when railroad business is by far the
best ever known, or when New York
bankers appear in international opera
tions, listening to Russian inquiry
and undertaking a Mexican loan.
Even the industrial! disputes incident
to the season cause less trouble than
usual, the largest of them having been
settled Thursday by the Tin Plate
Company. The Bank of England
finds it difficult to borrow more from
this side, and frankly raises its rate
while this country begins to ship fresh
crops for which Europe viii! run into
debt.
Iron production in the first week Of
July was 26S,363 tons, for the past
two weeks less because strike July
1st closed seven Shenango furnaces
producing 1900 tons daily, though it
is expected to end today, and several
other furnaces have begun production
this month. The increase of 9,3oI
tons weekly in June, with decrease of
SO, 400 tons in unsold stocks not of
the great steel companies, implies a
production of abou, 1,I2S,69o tons in
June. Consumption would be I,2c9,-
900 tons, and in the half year 6,S44,-
2Is, but for the fact that steel makers
have stocked heavily against orders
running through most of the year,
drawing from outside supplies. so that
consumption may prove only o,7oo,-
600 tons, or even less. Prices are
climbing, but only for the ,rifllng sur
plus not covered by contracts, SO that
quotations represent but an inslgnifi-
cant part of the actual business. 1t is
of more importance that new orders,
though very many, seem no longer
equal to the weekly output, except in
a few branches, while furnaces and
other works practically abandoned for
many years are being started again.

STONE HOTELS.
They Are Said to Burn Oftencr ThaA
Those Built Entirely of
Wood.

3 Considering how many huge hotels,
constructed entirely of wood, and often
in n more or less tlimsy manner, are
scattered about the country in places
where security from fire depends al
most wholly on the watchfulness of
proprietors and guests, it is, indeed, re-
markable that fatal contlagrations are
not more numerous than they are. AS
a matter of fact, it is the old city hotel
that most often is the scene of
great catastrophe, not the big frame
structure at mountain or beach resorts,
though these, at first thought, would
seem to be much more convenient fuel
for flames, says the New York Times.
1t must be remembered, however,
that the difference between the urban
and rural hotels is more apparent than
real. Stone or brick outside walls give
no inflammability to building with
wooden floors laid on wooden beams,
and with scantlings covered with lath
and plaster for partitions. AS one of
the officials saii in discussing the trag-
edy at the Windsor, the summer hotels
are safer than they seem. They con-
tain few except kitchen fires, and their
structure is such that every inmate
is moved to more carefulness than resi-
dents in the solder-looking buildings
in the city think necessary.

Strange Attemptto to Kill Two Young Girls.

The people OF the west end of
South Williamsport and the adjoining
borough of Duboistown have been
for the past few days highly excited
over an attempt to murder two young
girls, Annie Rice and Maggie Pfr-
man, each aged IS years. They
were picking berries IN the woods on
the mountain side, when man rose
up out OF clump of bushes and fired
at them as they ran screaming down
the mountain. The bullet passed
through the skirt of Annie Rice's
dress, near the hips.
Daniel Rice, father of Annie, and
Charles Dittmar, her uncle, accompa-
MED by the girls, hurried to the
woods, and while the latter were
showing where the shooting occurred,
Rice discovered the would be mur-
derer lying partly concealed behind a
tree, gun IN hand. Rice and Dittmar
lad hold of the fellow, who talked in
coherently. AT an opportune mo-
ment, however, he broke loose, and,
leveling his gun at the men, ordered
them to depart Being unarmed, they
lost no time in doing as ordered.
The fellow answers the description
of the man who during the past two
years has made eight different at
tempts to burn the home of H. J.
Donnelly, at Duboistown, using chem
icals arranged to explode at a time
when all would be asleep. These
attempts have nearly always been
made on Sunday.
Some one of Donnellys family is
on guard night and day with gun.

Gold For His Dead Benefactor's Son,
How Snyder Kept His Promise.

Alexander Snyder returned to
Franklin, Pa, from the Kiondike last
week with 100000 in gold, half of
which he said he would give to the
son of his former chum, Thomas II.
Critchelow, late of the Eighty third
Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry.
Snyder was sick in the mountains
for several months, and during that
time Critcheow looked after, nursed
and cared for him as best he could
under the circumstances. They be-
came firm friends.
Before they separated Snyder told
Cri.chelow that he was going back into
the mountains to prospect again and
if he was successful he would look up
Critchelow's son, wherever he was,
and divide his wealth with him. The
two miners left each other, and Sny-
der heard afterwards that Critchelow
died in Colorado in 1893.
Snyder went to the klondyke
among the first after the news of its
great wealth came to the States. He
was an old miner and was successful.
He returned in poor health, but he
had not forgotten the man who nursed
him, nor the promise he made to re-
member that mans boy.
George Mason, reputable citizen
of Franklin, who belonged to the
same regiment of which Critchelow
was a member, states that Orrin
Critchelow, of Franklin, is the miss
ing heir. Mason says Critchelow was
injured at the battle of Fredericks-
burg, and that soon afterwards he Sc
cured his discharge from the army
He never returned to his family but
went West. His family received
word of his death in 1898. Orrir
Critcheiow is an oil well driller, anC
his mother makes her own livelihood
Snyder is trying to learn if the state
mems of Mason are true.

BLEACHING A NEGRO.


Two years ago, according to the Vi
emma Fremdenblatt, a Viennese mer-
chant brought back from business
trip in Africa n Soudanese negro 10
years old, named lbual Lacho.
lbual soon learned the ways of Vi
emma, beginning with the German lam
guage, astonishing the bouleyards with
elegant costumes and finally acquiring
certain fashionable nervous disorders.
These a famous homeopathic specialist
subjected to electrical treatment.
Strange to say, lbual began to grow
white, gradually passing through the
coffee-andmilli stages until he became
in complexion Caucasian, though the
shape Of his face remained unchanged.
Ibual's doctor thinks that the black
pigment in the boys skin was gradual
ly disintegrated and washed out, as it
were, by the electric current. The chief
coloring matter, melanin, or pig
mentum nigrum, found in the eye, hair
and skin of the negro. contains iron
and strongly reacts upon electrical APP
plication.
American physicians will hardly
know how seriously to take this report.
1t is well known, however, that negroes
are much more susceptible TO the ac-
ton of electricity than white men.
There have been several cases of the

plication OF the X ray. usually harm
less to white skins. 1t is now general
ly considered dangerous to X-ray a
