TO BORE A HOLE THROUGH A PIN,

You can bore a hole through pin with
out any lathe or other machine. little
patience and very simple apparatus is nee
essary. All you want is a needle, two
corks, a bottle and two pocket knives FIT
one of the corks firmly into the neck OF
the bottle and stick the needle into it eye
down and point straight in the air STICK
the pin firmly into the other cork, open
the two pocket knives and stick them into
the cork so that they balance each otner.
So a to set this balance exactly, lay the
pin on the point of one finger, and get some
one 10 move the knives until you balance
them and the cork on your finger. Ihen
lay the pin on the boint of the needle ana
as soon as 1t Is well balanced a breath OF
air on the cork will make it revolve. Con-
tinue blowing on 1t whenever il goes 100
slowly. and at first the needles hard polut
will make slight impression on the pm,
gradually working is way through uhul
a clean hole Is bored as perfectly as any
lathe could have done it. This inter-
esting experiment requires patience ana
careful handling. nothing more. When you
show the other boys the pin bored ike
needle they will wonder how you managed
to do it-and perhaps you will show them
how it is done.

Americans for the social favors procured
by the acquaintance and, occasionally.th they
are allowed TO purchase a valuable paint
ing or an old family jewel.
When 1t comes to the point, as 1t has
this winter, of an entertainment being
given for the benefit of fallen noble fam-
lies. one can appreciate the gravity Of
their condition. This was in the form of
a concert patronized by some of the lead
ing women of the court circle. The tick
cts were s. each, and only the personal
friends of the patronesses were privileged
to buy them.
They Make Good Husbands.
There really seems 10 be no way for a
young noble to retrieve the fallen for
tunes of his family save by rich mar
riage. In several instances American
money has saved them from utter ruin, as
it has titled personages in other countries.
But it must be said for the Italians that,
as "a rule, they are not fortune seekers;
they have considerably more pride about
such arrangements than their mercenay
neighbors, the French, for instance, and
they make better husbands, moreover
At the present time there are two very
unhappy young hearts liz Rome. The girl
is an American and the young man an
Italian. Three months ago they were
engaged to be married and preparations
were under way for the wedding, when,
suddenly, the whole affair was broken of
by the mother of the young man who dis
covered. at that late date, that the girls
dot was much more insignificant than she
had supposed. The will of parents being
the highest law of the land in Italy, and
the young people being under age, they
can do nothing, not even so much as ex-
change notes, and, for the girl at least
life has lost all its sweetness

POVERTY OF NOBLE FAMILIES.
Starving Counts, Marchesas Who
Must Endure the Insolence of
TradespeOpIe.

Must Endure the Insolence of
TradespeOpIe.
Rome, Italy, April 1i.-Poverty, In what
ever guise, is pathetic, but there is some
thing tragic in the faded gentility of once
prineely families. One sees so much of
it here in Italy that the mere exterior of
palace calls up visions of deeayed grand
eur and suffering pride, and almost the
first question asked when noble family
is mentioned. is Have they any money!
In four cases out OF every five the answer
is in the negative.
The large majority of them are land
poor, having invested their money in the
great building speculation of the 70s
which followed the vent Of Rome becom-
ing the capital of the government. Ire
mcndous apartment houses, hotels and
public buildings of one sort and another
were in process of construction when the
enterprise collapsed through bad manage
ment and sudden lack of funds, and more
than one family was ruined
Others are the victims of the boundless
ambition and extravaganza of their ances-
tors who have hequeathed to them enor-
nous palaces and villas without the
means for their maintenance. The family
residences OF the Italian nobility were
| built on scale more in accord with the
| giantism of the Roman empire or the
| splendor of middle age ecclesiasticisn then
with the modest civilization of modern
| Rome. The Doria palace, for instance. Is
almost two-thirds of the size Of St Peters.

! huge galleries. It's not to be wondered
that the heirs are obliged to let four-hfths
of their family mansions. Aside from the
/ fact that they need the rent money. II is
/ quite impossible for them to occupy more
! than one-ffth of the rooms at time.
The income from the rent and the wife's

This afternoon at o'clock Immediately
after the session of the Sunday school,
the Baptist Mission, which has been run
by Rev. ID. S. Edenfeld at Fifth and
Whitaker streets, will meet to constitute
the Third Baptist Church Of the city. More
than fifty have agreed to 80 into the
organization. Mr. Edenheld has worked in
this mission wit 1out salary since last Oc-
tober, the Sunday school has run up to
seventy-five, and the attendance at the
morning and eve ming service has been en-
couraging j is hoped that all the Bap-
lists in the southern part of the city will
feel the importance OF this new work, and
lend their assistance to 1t. There is in
this section a large area without any
church facilities. The city is rapidly
growing in that direction, and it is very
probable that Savannahs strongest
churches will in a few years be located
in the central and southern part of the
city.
