HELD WITH JEWELED NAILS.
Woman's Ingenious Way of Pre-
venting People from Steal
ing Bric-a-brac.

A prominent jeweler in Washington
was rather surprised the other day
when one of his best customers gave
him an order to make half dozen gold
nails and place jewel in the head of
each. Besides giving this unique order,
says the Cincinnati Times-Star, the lady
requested him to get her about dozen
very small and finely made gold chains.
She wanted them so delicate and tiny
as to be almost invisible. Naturally, the
jeweler was anxious to know the use
these articles were to be put to, espe-
cially the jeweled nails, and knowing
his customer well enough he ventured
to inquire for what they were to be
used. The lady did not hesitate in the
least in explaining and seemed rather
glad to do so. "You see, l have a num-
Der of very valuable objects of art,
which, although they are very expen-
sive, are very small and easily handled.
AS the wife of an official of the govern
ment, l am obliged to open my house
during the season to the constituents of
my husband and the curiosity seeking
public in general. On my reception
days, therefore, my house is crowded
with all sorts of people, and last win
ter suffered the loss of several of my
most valuable treasures. l have long
been trying to devise some plan by
which l can keep my objects dart out
side of my cabinets, and yet not have
them stolen, for that is the only word
| can use in regard to the loss of my
treasures. have concluded that l must
either nail down some of the bric-a-brac
or chain it securely to the table, and
hence am going to try this remedy.
That is why 1 want these nails and
chains"
The predicament of this lady is not an
unusual one for wives of senators and
government officials, and, strange as It
may seem, it is not the general pubic
whom they dread so much as some Of
the well-known people.

Peripatetic Laundries.

A woman travelling through a noun
famous part of Germany recently came
upon small party of young women
pedestrians, who had just started ont
on a days journey, each of whom car
ried long alpenstock, with long, black
streamers flying from the uplifted end
The floating pennons indicated mourn
ing or woe of some kind, but the joyous
demeanor of the sightseers did not car
~ out the impression. On coming near
er the observer noticed that the stream
ers were black stockings. Every even
ing the walkers, arriving at stopping
place for the night, did a small amount
of laundry work, and as the stockings
never seemed to get perfectly dry, each
morning saw the damsels starting out
with black stockings floating on the
breezes. OF course they were American
girls.

YAQUiS DEFEATED.
Two Battles Reported, In Which the
Mexican Troops Win.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 25.-Reports OF
two battles between MeXicans and Yaqu
Indians have just been received here
General Luis Torres declared the cam
paign suspended until October, but the
YaQuis were not consulted on that point
Lorenzo Torres also appears to have
made different arrangements. The latter
crossed the river on Sept. IA to Vicam, a
town supposed to have been captured by
Luis Torres in August, and found the
Indians. They attacked his rear guard,
and a running fight of half an hour en-
sued. The Indians were dispersed and
nine killed. The Mexican loss was five
killed and nine wounded, among the lat
ter being Lieutenant Colonel Navarro of
the Eleventh battalion, one of the best
officers on the Mexican side.
Another battle Is reported to have &C.
Cured four days later. The forces under
Colonel Hernandez encountered 1000
Indians near a small lagoon between
Torrin and Potam. The Indians retired
to the thick woods, where a fight was
waged for more than two hours, begin
ming at o'clock in the morning. The
report says the Indians were defeated
and dispersed, leaving on the field 81
dead. The Mexican losses are stated as
IA soldiers killed and SO wounded. Ma
jor Ruiz of the national guard was NOR
tally wounded.

AN ANCIENT CHECK.
Fonnd After Being Lost For Thirty
five Years.


WICHITA, Kan, Sept. 25.-Mrs. Ju-
liza Bernhard, a widow living here, in look
ing over a few old letters found deposit
certificate for $4,000 which her brother,
W. l.. Richardson, had placed in the
Bank of Trenton, Trenton, Tenn, to her
credit Jan. %, 1868.
Young Richardson, when President
Lincoln issued his first call for troops,
enlisted in the Twenty-second Illinois
regiment of infantry. His father had
Just died, leaving his children $4,000 in
cash. Richardson had his money sewed
up inside his uniform.
In January, 1863, he was detailed with
a squad of men to do skirmish work, and
he deposited his money, $4,000 in Unit
ed States currency. in the Bank of Tren-
ton to the credit Of his sister, then Julia
Ann Richardson. He was wounded in
February and sent home, where he died.
He gave the deposit check to his sister,
and she put it away.
After the funeral the deposit check
could not be found. Miss Richardson be-
came Mrs Bernhard. Her husband died
several years ago, and the fortune of the
family long since disappeared. The Bank
of Trenton is no longer in existence, but
Mrs. Bernhard has employed attorneys
here to bring suit against the stockhold-
ers, several of whom are still living, for
$4,000 and interest at 6 per cent for 30
years, amounting in all to $4,000.

Storm on Lake Eric.

TOLEDO, Sept. 25.-Lake Erie yes
terday witnessed the worst storm of the
season, the wind blowing at the rate of
20 miles an hour. The blow came up
about 4 o'clock p. m. and continued for
an hour. Four yachts were capsized near
the Maumee bay, and the crews were
rescued with difficulty. Another yacht
containing three young ladies was re-
ported lost, and the shore of the lake was
patrolled till nearly 8 o'clock, when they
were found, having went through the
storm and been driven ashore. Consid-
cradle damage is reported in northwest

street car were blown in in the city as
the car was crossing a bridge. The wind

Splendid in Decline.

Congratulations to the queen regent
of Spain, who has just celebrated her
birthday. Her majesty has borne fully
her share of the sings and arrows of
outrageous fortune, and it must be a
relief to her to know that her country
is once more at peace with all the world
Spain is, of course, but shadow of her
former self, but the gallant little lady
who occupies the position of queen
regent is worthy figurehead of an an
tient race. She is brave woman, and
full of character, and had her lines
fallen in pleasanter places would have
adorned any situation she was called
on to fill. Her majesty has now COM
paratively few pleasures, and occupies
herself largely with affairs of state.

AS MANY LIVES AS A CAT.
A Queer Little story That Is Told OF
a Foreign Diplomat and Amer
lean Women.

These are the days of exaggerated
speech, when smile runs into hyper
bole. In illustration a queer little
story is going the rounds which may
well be taken to heart by those con-
cerned. A lately-arrived diplomat who
has been enjoying the summer at one
of the most fashionable watering places
had an American friend as his guest.
During some conversation concerning
the country the diplomat. in reply to
q question as to what impressed him
most, replied: "The most noticeable
thing which has struck my foreign
mind is, according to their own testi-
mony, the extreme delicacy and physi-
cal weakness of the American women,
young and old. There is hardly an
hour that do not hear some of them
proclaim that they are dying. They
die of the heat, they die of the cold;
they die of laughter and they die of
grief. And then, again, have heard
the expression: I just expired with
surprise Of course this last know
to be joke. But it certainly is curious
to note the extent to which American
womanhood is drifting to the grave,
If the statistics of their own proclama-
tions of the facts are reliable. It is
really wonderful" So solemn was the
Mortified diplomat that his auditor is
at a loss to know whether he was seri-
GUS or not. His name is withheld be-
cause on nothing are diplomats so sensi-
tive as to be published in criticism Of
the fair sex.

TRAVEL ON THE LAKES
In Summer the Steamers Are kept
Very Busy by the Tour
list Travel.

The travel on Lake Michigan by boat
is immense, far beyond any popular es-
innate. The along-shore routes from
here to Racine, Milwaukee, lake ports,
further north as far as Green Bay, and
the routes across the lake to Michigan
points are crowded throughout the sum-
mer months and in the early fall, says
the Chicago Chronicle. Great numbers
also embark at Chicago for Lake Su-
perior. All the craft on the lines to
Mackinaw, Marquette, Ashland and
Duluth are loaded with tourists. A few
years ago the lakes were almost desert
ed by travellers. Within year OF two
the attractions of lake travel have been
widely appreciated by the public, and

speak, of the lake navigation companies,
with a sojourn at resorts or in camp at
favorable points, is understood to be-
the best outing that fellow-citizen.
of moderate means can find within hfx
reach. A trip up and down the great
lakes serves the same purpose as trip
across the continent by rail to create q
vivid conception of the greatness of this
country. The length of the lakes is
some 1900 miles, and to produce an ap-
probation of their remarkable diverst-
ty they should be seen from both direc-
tons, making voyage as long as that
across the Atlantic. An American who
has not travelled on the lakes from Buff
falo to Chicago and to Duluth and back
again is not fitted for foreign travel;
he has no images of his own country to
compare with the images of other couu-
tries which may be formed in the Mid

ENGLISH AND IRISH.
Been Able to Understand
Each Other.

That the English and the Irish, liv-
ing under the same physical conditions,
should have the most opposite charac-
teristics of any two people in the world
is one of the mysteries. The physical
conditions of the two races are almost
Identical. Ireland, like England, being
insular, with surface marked by mod
crate irregularities and possessing a
moist and equable climate, the chief
differences being that Ireland is rather
more mountainous than England and
its climate being a little milder and
wetter. Yet the two peoples are sharp
ly contrasted in temperament and char
acter. The Irish are as impulsive, mer-
curial, humorous and unmethodical as
the English are stolid, orderly and prac-
teal. In war the Irish are most sue
cessful in attack, the English in de-
tense. The Irishman enters into matri-
mony with his heart only, the English
man calculates the cost of marriage be-
fore making a proposal. Irish liter
AZURE is more witty, more tender, more
glowing than English, but is less solid
and enduring. The contrast of charac-
ter is most strikingly demonstrated by
the fact that the two nations, during
an intercourse of more than seven cen
turtles, have never been able to thor
oughly understand each other, and,
apart from artificial difficulties manu-
featured by INSCRIPTIONS agitators, the
real differences between the two coun-
tries have been entirely due TO mutual
misunderstanding of each others char
acteristics.

WASHINGTON, Sept. pa high of.

statements calculated to remove any

in reference to the outlook for peace in
the islands. In the first place, he said he

in regard to General Otis. That officer,

the administration, and there is no
thought of superseding him in command
of the Philippines army at present.
