BEAUTIFUL WEDDING GIFT.
Fit for . Princes It was Gaves Co a Girl Nhs Wssked In
 a NfIl

A girl who for Line years has worked tn certain N0rristoNn mill wes re- gently married and. from the csrding, spinning and weaving overseerS. be- cause she had worked sO faithfully, she received a present as delicate and rare and beautiful as ever graced the nup- tals of princess, says the New Or leans Times Democrat. The men gave her three handkerchiefs, each of them so light that with a breath they could be blown to the ceiling. for they were woven of thistledOwn. This stuff Is common on the Norristown meadows and on the plant. or floating slowly through the air, it resembles a ball of cobweb brushed with powdered silver.
 The gathering os it is a task. and 1t Is romantic to think of the three over seers, corpuient and gray, Ecurrying In the young girls honor over the green fields after the floating balls on pleas ant Sunday mornings. But to card, spin and weave thistledown-to wind it on bObbins and Co make s warp of it. these were the real tasks, and there were months of failure and despair be- fore they were achieved.
 Yet certainly the fabric is delicate enough to reward the men for all their trouble A square yard of the beautiful, shimmering. silver gray stuff could be crushed between the thumb and finger into ball no bigger than pea.

STONE HOTELS
TAsy Are s~AA to Buss ofssasv Fhaa Those BaiIt Entirely of
 Wood.

Considering how many huge hotels. constructed entirely of wood, and often in a more or less flimsy manner, are scattered about the country in places where security from fire depends al- most wholly on the watehfulness of proprietOrs and guests, it is, indeed, re- markable that fatal cOnhagrations are not more numerous than they are. As a matter of fAet, it is the old city hotel that most often is the scene of a 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.
 lt 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 inhammability to a building with wooden floors laid on wooden beams, and with scantlngs covered with lath and plaster for partitions. As one of the officials said 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 solider-lOoloing buildings in the city think necessary.

"TEDDY" IS A SAD BIRD NOW.
We'll MS~Ring Bald Eagle That Served as Rough Riders Mascot Has
 Met SOrs Defeat.

After well-meaning bald eagle has served as & 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- vslt's regiment, now makes his bed on a hard rock near the ground, while his four eonqucrOrs 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 Q pair of bald eagles named the Heavenly Twins" They proceeded. by working together, to make Teddy" hang his head in hu- 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.

AMERICANS IN LONDON.
stausfieiaa Says That They spead sIO,Ooo,OOo AnnsalIy in the
 Worlds Metropolis.

Some London statistician announcei that Americans spend in London nor. than ti0,0Oo,o 900 every season, and he declares that the greater part of this comes frum the Americans living there permanently or for some months at a time, and not from the transient wis., itors who stay for only few days. The American entertainments are said to be looked upon now as a regular feature Of the season and play an appreciable part in its brilliancy. Shopkeepers 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 2o.O00. There are nearly as many more during the average summer, aI- 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-eitixens 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 propOl dOnately small. The majority of these expatriated eitirens of the United States are said to come from the middle west.
