4 GOOD TEAR FOR THE pOOR.

It has been prosperous year for the
 rich, and it has also been prosperous
 year for the poor The presentation of '$2,O00,000 to the city of Philadelphia by
 "Widener Industrial Home for Crippled
 Children" leads the Chicago Tribune to
 look over this years list of donations
 for charitable purposes. It finds that
 the total up to date, excluding all con-
 tributions of less than 5000, Is $11, 0S8,- S76, or nearly double last years total of SC, ,230, 300. The Tribune's figures show that during the year there have been nine direct donations of money to char ity in sums of $1OO, GOO and upward, as follows: P. A. B. Widener, $20O0, 900; J. Pierpont Morgan of New York, $350, ,O00; Crocker estate, San Francisco, Califor- mia, $250,000; F. H. Cooper of Chicago, $2O0, ,0O0, and H. c. Fahnestock of New York, Elizabeth Plankinton of Milwau- kee, Wisconsin. E. s. Converse of Mall den, Massachusetts, John l.. Williams of Richmond, Virginia, and John s. Pillsbury of Minneapolis, Minnesota $100,00O eacll--a total of $3,300OOO. In addition to these donations fourteen persons have bequeathed in sums of 5000 and upwards s4,OO5, 900, making a grand total of $7305, ,000 of which Philadelphia is to be credited with near Iy one-third. MT. Widener has given b2,OO0,O0O, and s62O,OOO has been be- lueathed as follows: w. H. Tilden $200- 900, Daniel Morris $170,0O0, George w. Rexamer s15O. GOO. and John G. Graham s1O0, ,0OO

most veraclously the normal character of the Jew. Thereupon some local wag sent the editor a note as follows: Will you kindly state in the next number of your valued paper that The Merchant of Venice was written not by Grillpar- ger, but by me? A wretched Liberal like Grillparzer could never have pro- duced piece of such evident anti Semitic tendency Yours truly, Will liam Shakspere, Vienna November, 1S99." The unsuspecting editor, Herr Konig. not only published the note, but an apology as well, in which he expressed the hope that MT. Shakspere would not be seriously offended at an error wholly unintentional. The joke of 1t is that Herr Konig is not only prominent anti-Semitic orator, but, by virtue presumably of his literary pre- tensions, one of the principal members of the local school board

Love After Death.

They say if our beloved dead Should seek the old familiar place. Some stranger would be there Instead, And they would find no welcome face. I cannot tell how it might be
 In other homes--but this l know. Could my lost darling come to me, That she would never find it so Ofttilnes the flowers have come and gone Outlines the winter winds have blown, The while her peaceful rest went on, And have learned to live alone; Have slowly learned from day to day In all life's tasks to bear my part; But whether grave, or whether gay, l hide her memory in my heart. Fond, faithful love has blest my way, And friends are round me true and tried Is empty as the day she died. How would l spring with bated breath, And joy too deep for word or sign, To take my darling home from death, And once again to call her mine dare not dream--the bllssful dream, It fills my heart with wild unrest; Where wonder cold white marbles gleam, She still must slumber-God knows best. But this know, that those who say Our best beloved would find no place Have never hungered every day Through years and years-for one sweet
 face.

INOTHER.

They have had Franklin Syndicate In Brooklyn and they have Security Savings Society" in Chicago, This so- ciety promises to pay interest at the rate of per cent a week compounded. man named Bennett appears to be at the head of this society. He explains that money compounded weekly at the rate of per cent. quadruples in 8 year and that he has $25OOO of his own funds in the society" Thus at the end of year MT Bennett's own s25, 900 will have grown to $1OO,OoO, at the end of two years 1t will be $4O0O0O, at the end of three years s1, ,6O0,O 900, at the end of four years $6,4OOooO, and at the end of five years $25,6ooOOO.
 Perhaps Mr. Bennett will not stay In business five years. If he does, and if his scheme holds out, he will be rich enough. And those who stay in with him will also be comfortable. So would those have been who were in the Frank lin syndicate, if the syndicate hadn't met with an accident"

SOME RELATED NEVIS.

We print this morning some news
 which ought to have been printed long
 ago, but which circumstances" have
 kept in the background. We mean the
 news relating to the estimates handed
 by the Board of Education to the Board of Finance. It appears that the Board
 of Education put in one statement and thatlthe Board of Finance asked for a more detailed statement. The Board of Education gave this more detailed statement. and the Board of Finance acted on it. We cannot yet give the es- inmates as they are made by the Board of Finance. Reason, more "circum- stances In time, if still more "cir- cumstances" do not intervene, we hope to be able to let the public know just what the Board of Finance did with the estimates.
 Some of the results of trying to do public business in secret are already beginning to show themselves, and there will be more of them. It has been as- tonishing to us to see gentlemen who ought to know better taking such view of public affairs as they have talk en. Perhaps they will realize before the inevitable wrangle, suspicion and gen. eral bad feeling have exhausted them selves that they have made mistake. If they don't others will see it. When public business is done right and open ly there is no trouble. But when it is in other respects, trouble is sure to come.

formation on the subject, where the author himself, borrows most eloquent figures from the book of MT. Bournard
 At the Hospital de Charities twenty Sisters cost 4,000 francs a year-forty- four lay nurses cost 66000 francs. At Ivry the laicisation cost 30O,0O0 francs to begin with and 10000 francs year. At Cochin it cost 13s, 1000 francs and each year an additional 1S,000 francs to the expenditure.
 The suppression of "maigre" diet and the increase in wine allowance to nurses burdens the budget of the Assistance Publique by 217,000 francs year. To hide these truths the food of the patients has been reduced. Formerly each hos pltal bed cost 1,200 francs year; where the Sisters have been expelled the cost is 2,7O0 francs. The cost per day of each patient did not exceed ? fir. 50 c.-the average is now fir. 20 c. A superinten- dent costs 2,100 francs, an under super intendent, 1,S00 and at this price it Is impossible to recruit the personnel. The total salary of a religious was 200 francs a year.
 It is to be hoped that wiser Govern menu VIII recall tf}e AuguSt1nlanS ana the Sisters of Charity. The Republic which has decorated twenty-two of the latter cannot without prejudice to itself keep them longer at distance
 Hear the words in which President Carnot addressed one of the Sisters in pinning to her dress the ribbon of the Legion d'Honneur: T decorate you for your zeal and for the service which you have rendered the sick; do not let your modesty be offended by this decoration; in your person I decorate the whole order."-The New Era

| those who do not heed the lesson of | MT. Kiplngs "A Matter of Fact" For, | though our dog story is absolutely true, 1 if there is any confidence to be placed in human testimony, it is close to ab- solutely incredible, and it's presentation is bound to abrade the laborously &C., quired and highly prized reputation for uncompromising accuracy which this column enjoys. Then follows the story: In. one of New Yorks northern suburbs there lives an amiable and intelligent collie named Le6. His master comes of his business returns sometimes on one train and sometimes on another. This sort of irregularity, as many suburbanite knows, is calculated to work havoc with dinner arrangements; but, thanks to mysterious power pos sessed by Leo, practically all inconven- fence is avoided. Leo has an inward monitor, or hyper-sense, that informs him when his master begins his jour ney from the Grand Union station and conveys this information to the home staying portion of the family by conn bination of leaps and barks that he uses for no other purpose! The signal is given daily, and has been for years,
 
 and no matter whether it comes at or o'clock in the afternoon or at or o'clock in the evening, it is always correct, and the final preparations for dinner immediately begin, to be com- pleted just as the master arrives.
 This is certainly good dog story, and the reputation of the Times for veracity is all right. It is pity that Leo can't talk.

materials is the height of extravaganza but it may be turned to economy in making over ad amazed garment. The skin gives much of the warmth of the sealskin, so if only the damaged fur surface of the old coat could be re- newed the garment would still possess warmth giving quality. A badly dam aged fur will look handsome when it appears only between lines of stenciled velvet or cloth Sealslsin overlaid with biscuit color all-over-open work cloth is very fine. A short coat with straight front and pair of hip tabs Is @ very stylish form for it. The coat should be lined with heavy satin to match the color of the over-laying cloth. Hats are made in the same way of fur over- laid with stenciled cloth or velvet. Chinchilla over open work blue velvet is lovely.
 Elaborate ruff-boas of white silk with edges bound in black ribbon are very dressy for middle-aged or gray haired matrons. These boas fit closely under the chin, and from there narrow to the waist, where they are caught in the belt or with a buckle. Chiffon ruffe. wired and tipped with fur, are also styl- ish. Feather ruffs are rather out of fashion, though tinted grabe collars set high and close are pretty. The uncol- ored silver white grebe Is lovely in sets of collar and toque either for very young folk, or when softened with lace and velvet is beautiful for gray hair.

FASHION NOTES.
Fur as Used In ElabOvatins

There are few new notions in the use of fur as band trimming for gowns As usual, it's employment is marked by extravaganza, the fur being placed where it will soon be ruined. A favor ite place for one expensive band is at the skirt hem, as in the gown shown here, where it also outlined a square yoke The gown itself was royal blue velvet, so such use of fur hardly was misplaced. The yoke and the narrow panels of skirt and bodice were knife pleated white corded silk, the latter crossed by velvet bands.
 Sealskin overlaid with stenciled cloth is one of the latest notions, and 'n new

Nor will the league stop at mere diagrams and or gans in alcohol.

James P. Reed, who was at one time champion checker player of the world, died the other day in Pittsburg. of which city he was native. He began playing checkers, says the Pittsburg Dispatch, when he was fourteen years old. But it was not until Robert Mar tin, of Scotland, formerly champion of the world, passed through Pittsburg that Reed became any way well known. That was in 1876. They played several friendly games, and Martin had rather the better of them, but Reed was the only man west of the Allegheny moun- tains who had been able to win a game from him. He played in Great Britain in 1887. He defeated Barker, the cham pion of the United States, in 1889, and the next year match was arranged be- tween him and James Wyllie, of Scot land, the champion of the world. For some reason the Scotchman failed to play and Reeds friends therefore claimed the world championship for him.
