LEAP YEAR.
This Account Says Ii viii he u Thing
Unknown After the
Year 21O0.

Within eight more centuries leap
year will have become a relic of the
present time. BY that time the extra
ii days lost to make up the changes
from the old Julian calendar to that
of the present day will all have been
duly accounted for, and the world will
run around in just sos days. and no
fury will be forced to devise some
other scheme for forcing the unwilling
swain to take a wife. Nineteen hun
dred. while one of the even years end
ing a quartette, will not be a leap year
simply because in arranging the dates
it was purposely left out, says the Gin
cinnati Enquirer,
The ladies' lose their privilege again
in 1900, but though there will not be
many Of those who see 1900 who will
see 1000, the latter year ending fourth
century Will be a leap-year In this
way three days are retrenched in four
centuries, and the remaining seven
days will be made up in little over
500 yearS. After that calendar years
will be like solar years, and errors in
calculation Of time will occur no more.
The loss of leap years Will in thou
sands of years affect the seasons. but
probably the mathematicians of the
centuries hence will be so expert in
handling figures and making calcula-
tons that they will have no difficulty
in keeping things going correctly.

TRICKS IN EUCHRE CLUBS.
An Incident Which Explains How
Some Foxy Women "Win"
the Prizes.

Two women hurried along Adams
street from the Art institute, on their
way to the Women's Eucher club at
Handel hall, says Chicago paper
Just run in with me to Brentano's
minute" said one. I've got to get
me a punch"
The clerk showed a collection of
punches that made holes of various
shapes.
NO" said the shopper, II want just
a simple, round punch, this SIZE" and
she distracted cardboard from her
pocket that showed the size of the per-
fora ton.
"Oh, very we'll" said the clerk, 1--WE
have it, but it's not called for very
often for private games" and the punch
was brought out and sold promptly.
The second woman wondered what
her friend wanted of that particular
punch, but kept her curiosity to her
self. The game was exciting. and, as
the friend is good player, she won
eight games. The second woman no
ticed this particularly. But when the
score cards were exhibited the friend
had II credit marks punched in her
score card The other woman saw then
the wherefore of the particular punch
they had bought. The friend had won
eight games, and then had done little
punching with private punch.
The prizes at these club eucher con
tests are quite valuable, and the spirit
Of gambling has become so pronounced
among some of these players that they
are not above resorting 10 unfair
means to capture them.

A MONARCH IN CAPTIVITY.
Present Habitation of Samory, an
African Potentate, Dethroncd
by the French.

Some interesting details in regard to
the present condition Of Samory, the de-
throned African monarch. have lately
been received by the French minister of
the colonies. Samory is now at Kay
where he occupies a camp, which b..
guarded by company of soldiers. He
has Is wives with him. and l6 of his
children and several servants. He
spends his time in reading the Koran
and smoking cigarettes.
70 outward seeming Samory is calm
and contented, but at heart he is quite
the reverse. He cannot rid himself of
the idea that he will be murdered some
day, and whenever one of his guards
happens to fire shot he is confident
that his last hour has come. He brood
ed so much over his coming doom that
he quite lost his senses recently and
made a determined but futile effort to
commit suicide
Samory still retains with him few
pieces of his barbaric furniture. but
all his gold and silver treasure, which
mainly consists Of gold rings and sill
yer plates, has been coutiscated 10y the
French government and is TO be sold
His silver cuirass, however, massive
and unique work of art, will be placed
in the war museum at Paris. Samory,
it is said. has grieSed much over the
loss of these treasures, and it is con
sidered doubtful whether his captors,
10 matter how kindly they may treat
him. will ever be able to reconcile him

FRAUDULENT CURIOS.
A Bona Eide Collection of Any De-
scription LIS Now Hard to
Obtain.

The hunter of curios needs a careful
training if he is to build up bona tide
collection This is not SO easy as it
seems, for the imitation of curios has
been brought to an art of itself. There
are certain factories in Europe in which
all kinds of works of art that are likely
to interest the collector are manufac-
tured. The stamping of China with old
marks, the treating of arms and armor
with acids to make them look ancient,
the staining of carved worries with oil
to make them yellow and their sub
lection to heat TO make them crack, are
all so cleverly done as often to deceive
the expert. The man who is engaged
to drill holes in imitation of worm
holes in pieces of furniture is almost
an artist. and in Hungary there is fac
tory where fairly passable imitation
of Dresden china is made. Science has
been enlisted to carry ont one of the
most profitable branches of this taking
of curios. There has lately been dis
covered a disease which eats away
bronze and gives il an appearance OF
antiquity. All old metallic objects in
which copper and certain alloys has
oecn used. are liable To be attacked by
this corroding affection. Skilled fab
ricators of antiquities are known to in
oculate their reproductions with spots
of bronze disease. Many amateurs have
an idea that they may pick up price,
less work of art or curio for mere
song. and they look in at out-of-the-way
auction rooms for that purpose. This
is the chance for the forgers, and in the
majority of cases they land their game
