SHE is a TYPEWRITER.
But Why Not Give the Job to Some
One Who Needs II.

Miss Elise Farrcl, whose father is
worth from $20000,000 to $25,OoO,-
600, drew her first pay as working
girl on Thursday. She grew tired Of n
life of ease and determined to earn
n living. Her father is the Hon.
Franklin Farrell. head Of the Farrell
Foundry and Machine company, OF
Ansonia, and an owner of several cop
per mines in the west. She is a grad
uate of Ogontz She is also an excel
lent whip and is often seen driving
her big bay horse to a light rubber

on country roads.
Recently the place Of private socrc-

opening the mail and asserting it. re-
ceiving the answers to the letters
from diCtation, copying them Oh her
typewriter, and sending them out
She declines all invitations of a social
nature which interfere with her work
and is an excellent secretary.
Miss Elises determination to be use
full is more remarkable because her
father is noted for his generosity TO
his children. His daughter Miss Flor
encc Adele, was married to George
Clarke Bryant, son of Edison Il. Fry
ant internal revenue collector. of An

AUTOMOBILE PALACE.
Magnificent Car for Long Trips Upon
Pleasant Byways.

Railroad palace cars are famlllar
sight to the public, but car OF like
proportions, and something similar in
appearance and design that will speed
along the country roads from 20 to 80
miles an hour Is the latest creation
pf Yankee skill and Yankee ingenuity
Mr. S. c. COOmbS, of Philadelphia,
Is the inventor in that line of automo.
biles.
The car has a four-wheeled truck
under each end set short distance
back from the ends, thereby bring
Ing the weight of the car as near tho
engine as practicable in car 90 feet
long The wheels are four feet high
each truck Is constructed with heavy
rrrings and fifth wheel, like heavy
circus wagon Each wheel Is lifted
with the heaviest and best solid rub
Der tire that can be produced, which
will relieve the wheel and axle from
heavy lar when in rapid motion. Tho
gour-whCcl truck at each end gives
the car great stability, because II one
wheel drops in hole or crevasso the
companion wheel on the same side
will maintain the balance Of the car
end also distribute the weight over a
larger surface on the ground, giving
lie car better fOothOld, as it were
IN soft roads or climbing hills.
Mr.. Coombs's manner Of communi-
eating power to the wheels from the
motor is where his engineering quail
ties show themselves. The wheels
Nil worl; Independently Of each other
the same as any automobile, yet they
rrc all operated by means of two
heavy cables direct from the motor
The car has steering arrangement
rt each ond-both ends Of the car are
alike. The car runs either way, and
around short curvcs and in turns the
rear wheels follow in the same track
rs the front wheels, and the car is
i~uided either way by the same steer
.a@ arrangement, the car having a
pilot at each end. The car positively
viii not upset on any road.
There are two statero0ms in the
. car furnished with closets and baths.
The bath tubs are let down in this
space, and are even with the under
Tide of the floor, a section of the floor
being constructed to cover 1t. The
buffers pantry is fitted with every
nodcrn culinary device. Some of the
mace of the car is divided off with
partitions like folding blinds, making
it possible to throw two or three
rooms into one. The car is pointed at
either end to minimize atmosphere
resistance. The car cannot upset, for
It can be seen that material and bag
gage carried is near the ground, like
ballast in the bottom of ship

BRIAR PIPES.
Signs by Which Smoker Can Tell a
Good One

1t is strange, and. yet it IS fact, that
the English workman is of no use In
the manufacture Of pipes. The most
skillful artisans are either the AuStr-
ans or the French. The pipemakcrs are
very select, small body, and observe
every precaution to prevent their trade
being learned by outsiders The work
men are clever and they can earn high
wages.
Speaking of the cost Of pipe n sue
ceSSful manufacturer remarks: when
the blocks arrive over here they are
at once sorted. Out of one gross of
blocks | rarely ever get more than
three or four pieces of wood for the
ordinary everyday pipe. The remaining
seven dozen pieces of wood are thrown
into the furnace. and, l might mention
help considerably to generate the nee
essary steam power for the machinery.
Thus fully GO per cent. of the material
| purchase is of no use whatever, ana
1t is this extraordinary amount Of
waste that causes the briar pipe to be
so expensive.
The prevailing defect, may mention
by the way, is generally in the form
of a crack in the wood. | used to sell
these defective blocks of briur at Il
penny apiece, ana nave sent away as
many as 10000 condemned briars at Il
time, but now | burn them all. Fhe
briars were sent abroad and the cracks
and flaws stopped with putty or some
other composition and then stepped In
strong solution Of pcrmanganate Of
potash, which deeply colorcd the wood
and made the defect invisible except
on close inspection. All those hriars
you see of a very deep color have
passed through the pcrmanganatc Of
potash bath, and you may rest assured
that there is defect Somewhcre-thcy
would not be that color if it were not
so, because natural briar Is of medi-
um light hue.
"As to the average life of n briar
pine, YOU may take it for granted that
a pipe will last YOU as many years as
it costs you Shillings. That is to say, If
you pay six shillings for pipe if you
are moderate smoker, it will last you
six years. The style of briar pipe that
IL mostly in demand is that with Il
bowl cut the traght way of the grain.
This is not the most reliable kind Of
pipe, as the sudden expansion by the
heat and contraction of the wood when
you stop smoking cause 1t to split in
short time. The best pattern of briar
is that with bowl the grain Of which
is very notified in appearance, or, as
the trade call it. the bird S-eyc grain
This will never split"

Our Several Postal Schedules.

It is pointed out that at the present
time the United States and Territor-
les aud Colonies Of America are af-
nictCd with five separate and different
postal schedules. These are 1) the
domestic American system, which Is
familiar TO most of us; CD the Porto
RiCan system, which is the same as
oar own for lcttors, but with higher
rate for fourth.class matter; C3) the
Hawaiian system. the Hawaiian rates
within the islands and foreign rates
with the United States; (4) the Gu
ban system, with modification of the
Old Spanish system In the interior and
forCiGn rates between the island and
the United States; (5) the Philippine
system, within the islands as the
Spanish left it, but with domestic let
ter, newspaper and parcel rates be-
tween the archipelago and the United
States. There are a great many peo-
pie. including not few American
business men, who would urgently
recommend Congress to take meas
urcs to unity and harmonize these
various systems in some way.-The

Drunk With Cold,

The usual results of exposure to cX.
tremc cold are loss of energy. both
physical and mental, followed by
drowsinesS and Discrimination to
move; the mental faculties become
torpid and the senses nunbcd, while
the victim is seized with an irresist-
ible desire to lie down and sleep, If
this desire is yielded to the lethargy
passes into stupor and death follows.
Occasionally these symptoms are pre-
Ceded by others which resemble those
of intoXiCation, and arc due to a pc
culiar condition of the blood, which
at very low temperature takes up
an insufficient quantity of oxygen,
and so has an injurious effect ON the
nervous system 1T was observed dur
ing the retreat of the French at Mos
COW that those who were most severe
ly affected by the cold often recled
about as if intoxicated; they also com
planned Of giddiness and indistinctncSS
of vision, and sank gradually into Il
state of lethargic stupor, from which
it was impossible to arouse them 9th
er instances are recorded in which
persons became deliriouS and died
through a short exposure to intense

RhDIUM.
A New Chemical Which Is Better
Than the X-Ray.

nan tIC <>'NoJ'
Prof. George +. Barker. of the ply
steal laboratory of the University Of
PENNSYLVANIA, exhibited last week for
the first time in America, the newly
discovered chemical element radium.
which seems destined to create Il great
stir in the scientific world. Years ago
Beuucrcl found that salts of the rare
metal uranium possessed the power of
throwing off Il feeble and invisible ra-
dance, like the \ rays. Nine. Curie, in
Paris, last year isolated from the Bo-
hemian mineral pitchblcnd two other
elements that behave in the same man
ncr but are far more active. one or
them she called ''polonium" and the
other "radium.' The latter is said to
be 100000 times as intense as uranium
in its Photographic effect.
Prof. Barker has been experimenting
with all three of these elements and
with the mineral pitchblend or ura-
nitp) from which the two new elc-
mcntS are derived. He showed to the
Bibliographical Club here this week n
series of Photographic plates on which
impressions had been produced by
these substances. His procedure has
been as follows:
"a Photographic plate was incloscd
In black paper and then covered with
yellow paper. After one whole days
exposure to the sunlight no effect was
produced. This precaution proved the
th0roughneSs of the protection. Then
the various metals and salts were
placed upon the paper covered plate
and they produced dark stains.
"In order to take photographs of OBJ
jectS such as n hand or foot these OBJ
iects would he placed between the met
al and the plate. and the result would
he similar to those obtained by the
y rays such substances as bone would
show clearly through the flesh and sur
rounding tissue. A photograph can he
taken by means Of radium In half n
minute.
"The importance Of this discovery
can hardly be overestimatcd. The Won
derful results of the X rays now so
useful in surgical diagnosis, can be du
nlicatcd by a method much cheaper
Moreover radium seems to suffer no
diminution of energy or loss Of weight
during the process. In addition to pro
ducng an impression on the photo
graphic plate. radium produces phos-
phorcscencc, and discharges electrified
bodies. Thus it will be seen that it
possesses all the qualities Of the Ro.
entgen rays.
"Radium apparently violates one of
the fundamental laws of physics,
namely, that of the conservation of en-
crgy. 1t does not derive its photograph
ic power from the sunlight nor lose 1t
by cxpcnditure."- Y. Tribune.

His Mammoth Mouth Snaps on What
ever Touches the Projecting Fin.
Most remarkable of strange fishes
Is the ang)rrf5h, whose very name
Ec"ms a paradox. The fishing fish,
nevertheless, is a reality, and stern
GHe to all who approach those awful
JAWS of his. With IA body the color of
nud he genrally lies in the shadow of
hDme rock on the bottom of the sea,
waiting mOtiUnlesS for the approach
If his prey. He is provided with an
rdd kind Of fin Just over the mouth,
ind this is held out in front of him -
give warning Of the coming of some
thing to be swallowed One taken
alive was experimental on, and it
was found that if this projecting fin
was touched with stick, even though
tho stick did not come near the
mouth, the jaws closed convulsively.
This shows that the fin by some pro.
vision Of nature closes the Jaw as
soon as it is touched. The mouth is
tremendous, growing to the width of
n foot when the whole fish is only
three feet long. One Of these anglers
was caught not long since, and though
ii was only tweny five inches long
fish liftcn inches long was found stick
ing in its throat. The angler Is pro.
vid"d with peculiar teeth set in dou-
bic or treble rows along the jaws and
at the entrance Of the throat. Some
Of these teeth are foot long. He is
not q pretty fish to look at, but he
attends strictly to business and will
swallow anything that touches his
warning fin, whether it Is meant for
food or not. All kinds of things have
been found in the stomachs of anglers,
from bits of lead and stone to fish al.
most as large as the angler itself.
This is withOuN doubt one of the most
peculiar and interesting fish in the
whole ocean.-N Y. Sun.

ALBUQUERQUE AFTERNOON,


legislation OF the Fifty-sixth congress
by which parity of all our money and
the stability of our currency on a gold
basis has been secured.
We recognize that interest rates are
a potent factor in production and busi-
ness activity and for the purpose of
further equalizing and further lower
ing the rates OF interest, we favor such
monetary legislation as will enable the
varying needs of the season and all
sections to be properly met in order
that trade may be evenly sustained,
labor steadily employed and commerce
enlarged.
The volume OF money in circulation
was never SO great per capita as to-
day. We declare our steadfast opposi-
tion to the free and unlimited coinage
of silver. No measure to that end
could be considered which was without
the support of the leading commercial
countries OF the world. However Arm
ly the republican legislation may seem
70 have secured the country against a
period OF base and discredited curren-
cy. the election OF a democratic presi-
dent could not fail to impair the coun-
trys credit and to bring once more into
question the intention OF the American
people to maintain upon a gold stan
dard parity Of their money circulation.
