The Philadelphia Bulletin contains
the following:
There is considerable commotiOn
among the employees of the Philadel-

organized the Mint at Carson City,

understood to be trying their best to
avoid it.

An amusing story is told of a wicked
trick which fortune played, short
time ago, on lady. The lady and her
husband, who were travelling. called
at the shop of country draper to make
a few purchases. They were about to
leave the shop, when an attractive bon
net arrested the lady's attention, and
she induced her husband to buy it for
her.
When it came to payment, however,
the husband found to his dismay that he
had not sufficient money to pay for
it. In this dilemma he offered the
draper an eighth-share ticket in a Ger
man lottery which he had in his purse,
and finally induced him to accept it
in part payment. A few days later
the lady learned, to her disgust, that
the lottery ticket had won an eighth
of $4,000; and that her darling bon
net" had thus cost her the record price
of over $4,000.
1t was happy inspiration that
tempted a young lieutenant on the Ital-
ian battleship Lepanto to turn his at
| tention to the Spanish Christmas lot
terry a couple of years ago. The ship
was cruising off the coast of Spain.
and it occurred to the lieutenant to
induce all on board, from captain to
cabin boy, to join in purchasing a lot
| terry ticket. The ticket was bought,
and, to the delight of all, was fortu-
nate enough to win the first prize Of
100000, which was divided among the
lucky owners on Christmas day.
A very curious piece of good fortune
fell last year to the lot of poor widow
who kept small shop in the suburbs
of Berlin. One evening as she was
serving customer working man
stepped into the shop and begged per-
mission to light his pipe. Drawing a
piece Of paper from his pocket, he
twisted it up, lit it at the gas jet, and,
after lighting his pipe, threw down the
spill and walked out with a word of
thanks.
