ANTIQUE RUGS ARE RARE.

One of the most experienced men in sertion that there are not more than a few hundred genuine antique rugs in the country. Those who own them hold on to them, for their value in creases every day. To be antique a rug must be at least one hundred years old. Because it looks dingy and is high priced is by no means a guarantee that the rug is a genuine antique, and many who have prided themselves on the ownership of such an article would be sadly disappointed if they had it ex amined by an expert and were informed that it was the ordinary kind made In this country and had been "doctored' to make 1t appear old
 The finest rugs come from Persia and are named after the provinces in which they are made. The manner in which the knots are tied is a guide to the pro- vince. They look so much alike it is difficult to tell the difference. The manner of making them, too, dates back centuries, and the colors endure forever. The people of India neither in- vent nor initiate, for the old methods are the best and they stick to them as long as they live.
 The colors of these rugs never fade. While the dust may soften their origi- nal tints the primal quality is never lost. They can be cleaned time and again without injury to color or tex ture,
 The people of India are excellent at copying and will reproduce an original rug so perfectly that it is hard to tell the difference. They always get the best effects.
 Antique rugs are very expensive. Up to two thousand pounds is not consid- cred exorbitant for a good sized rug.
 Nearly all of the old patterns are be- ing repeated and are being used, with the exception of those in the mosques, copies of which are not permitted
 The Armenians have demoralized the rug trade by introducing a great num- Der of counterfeit rugs in recent years. They use mineral dyes and the weaving is not as skillfuL-The Scotsman

London, April 16.--Sir Henry Irving

tuous welcome last evening at the Ly-
ceum theater where "Coriolanus" was
presented with all the wealth of setting
and scenery for which Irving is famous.
THE house was crowded to it's utmost
capacity.
The applause with which Sir Henry's $
first entrance was greeted lasted fully
a minute. while Miss Terry was re-
ceived with almost equal enthusiasm.
In the title role Irving has part
which in the general opinion suits him
exactly, and the critics predict sue
cessful run.
The entire production was from de-
signs by Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema,
and the incidental music was composed
by Sir Alexander Mackenzie. The play
was presented in three acts. A! the
close Sir Henry and Miss Terry were
recalled again and again and finally the

ception and promising to do his utmost
to merit their good will. Many notable
persons We're in the house. Mr.. and
Mrs. Caoate. with Mr.. and Mrs W.
Bayard Cutting, jr., occupied the Royal

fluctuations.

1YPHo1D FEpER SCARED HIM..
Henry Kane When Told That He Had
TYPHOID symptoms Wanted to Die.

Henry Kane, man about thirty-five
years Of age, who resides at 95 Asylum
street, attempted to commit suicide at
his home yesterday afternoon by cut
ting his throat. Kane had not been
feeling we'll for the past few days and
physician had been called twice to
see him. Yesterday the physician told
him that the symptoms Of his illness
were those of typhoid fever. Not long
after the physician left Kane's sister
entered his room and found him lying
on the floor and bleeding profusely
from a cash in bis neck. Beside him
on the floor was a caseknife and a ra-
zor. The latter was covered with
blood and was the instrument which
Kane had probably used in his attempt
to take his life. Patrolman Marlowe,
whose beat is nearby, was notified and
called Dr. Pitnnan to, attend him. DR..
Pitman found that he had cut in the
left side Of the neck, about two and a
half inches long and half an inch deep.
His condition was such that it was
deemed advisable to send him to the
hospital, and he was taken to New Ha-
ven hospital in the abulance of that in
stitution.
AT the hospital last night he said that
he had no RECOLLECTION about what he
had done, and it is thought. that he
was delirious when he cut himself. 1t
is thought at the hospital that no SER
ious consequences will follow the in
jury. Kane had high fever last night,
but whether or not he was afflicted with
typhoid had not become fully apparent.
Kanes sister, who resides with him,
had been up nights lately taking care
of him, and had become very nervous.
Yesterdays occurrence completely up
set her nerves, and she became vio-
lently insane. About an hour after her
brother was taken to the hospital she
was taken to Springside home. 1t is
thought that her mental arrangement
is only temporary.
