THE SHAMROCK COCKTAILS.
On Invitation of Col Roger Scnnneil
of the Montgomery Guards.

On Invitation of Col. Roger ScanneiI
of the Montgomery Guards.
From the New York Sun.
Col. Roger Scannell, who commanded
the famous Montgomery Guards of
Boston on their memorable visit to
New York some years ago when they
were entertained by the Sixty ninth
Regiment, was in New York on Satur-
day as one of the Boston delegation
to welcome Michael Davitt He put up
at the Broadway Central Hotel, where
Mr.. Davitt is, and while there intro
duced a new drink which will be long
remembered by those who tasted it.
The cafe was crowded with friends of
Scannell, anxious to hear him talk.

they do be amy among ye,' he said
to the crowd, 1.-The hospital tratement

the barkeeper.

glasses were set on the bar and Scan

This was done, but gingerly.

next order. This was followed by a

On top of this was poured liberal

Colonel said, Dyes, this drink is me

There was some hesitancy, but when
scannell and his chum, John O'Calla-
ham, also of Boston, drank off their
potions all followed suit. The result
was startling. Scannell and O'Callahan
were unconcerned, but among the 9TH
ers there were loud shouts for water.
Several of them with tears In their
eyes made for the open air.
Scannell gazed around him with in
dienation and then as he started for
the elevator to go to his room, shouted
to those who were left in the cafe;
"They call them New York; pa

FAYNE WANTS DIVORCE.
So She Can Marry a Wealthy
EugIishman.
From the Boston Globe.


From the Boston Globe.
New York, Aug. AVN. A. f. Moore,
who is serving a 19-year sentence in
Sing Sing for working the badger game
upon Martin Mahon with the aid of his
pretty wife, Fayne Moore, has been in
formed that his wife is anxious to OBJ
tain divorce so that she may marry
a wealthy nobleman in England. Moore,
however. has decided to pay no atten-
ton to his wife's pleadings.
That it was Fayne Moore's intention
to free herself from her husband has
been known for some time. But 1t was
not until to-day that Moore learned
the news directly from his wife. 1t
came to him in the shape of a letter
written at Sonning on Thames, London,
Eng.
She addressed her husband as Dear
Billy" In the letter Mrs. Moore says:
so far as you are concerned be
neither wounded nor surprised, when
1 tell you that l long for my release
above all things, and feel that it can
be obtained now with no great regret
to either of us. I have no words of re-
preach; they are both useless and I'M
necessary. But yours was not nature
IN any way COnSeIlldi 10 lIliIlc-On the
other hand, was utterly miserable.
"Sinee coming to England have rail-
lied somewhat from my old self, or
rather former self, and may yet real
ize a small portion of happiness and
success in the event of the>step desire
to take. / am sure in the years 10
come your happiness will not be affect
ed thereby, while mine may be aug
mented. OF all this you are not igno-
rant, and therefore realize the utter
useIessness of any further joint efforts
under any circumstances"
This is the letter of cruel woman
"a woman without heart" said
Moore after reading this letter in bis
cell "Sne is free: / am suffering and
am innocently convicted. No one knows
that better than does Fayne."
Mrs. Moore could bring an action for
divorce against her husband upon the
ground that he is a convicted felon. She
lears, rowever, that the courts would
hold that she had no claim under suoh
a clause of the law since there are two
indictments pending against her in the
district attorneys office-one charging
robbery in the first degree and the 9TH
er grand larceny in the second degree.

AGUINALDO.
A Returned Lieutenant Says He IL

n Returned says nc -
More Japanese Than Filipino.
From the Kansas City (Mo.) Journal
Lieut.. John Buckles has arrived in
Kansas City after spending three years
in the Philippines with the famous For
tieth Regiment, which saw hard serv-
Ice in Luzon and which subjugated the
Island of Mindanao. Lieut.. Buckles
was the officer in command of his
company delegated by Gen. Bates to
go out from Manila to receive Gen.
Funston and his captive, Aguinaldo.
Funston did not act as II he be-
lieved he had done anything out OF
the ordinary" said Lieut.. Buckles. He
came into Manila hot. dusty, and
travel-worn and received the congrat-
uIations of the men and officers with
the depreciation of a hero. He has pro-
fesesd to me since that 1t was much
easier thing to make the capture than
he had anticipated, and that the Fill
pino chieftain either wilfully or negli-
gently failed to take one or two ad-
yantages he had to resist capture.
Funston told me the day before sail
ed that regular army life was becom-
ing very monotonous, and that he was
considering a proposal to accept the
manarement of a United States cocoa
and chocolate concern which would
pay him $4,000 year and afford am
pie opportunities for him to visit the
interior of the islands on extended ex-
cursions."
"What is your opinion of Aguin-
aldo?"
"Aguinaldo is the most prominent
man in the Philippines to-day. He has
more japanese blood in his veins than
Filipino. No island native ever had,
or ever will have. the brains to do
what Aguinaldo did, be 1t much or lit
tie. Even the Americans are lionizing
him in the most disgusting way. He is
wined and dined and treated and feted
from morning until night. He lives in
a palace and has a steam launch at
his disposal In this he steams around
Manila harbor and attracts no end of
attention, of which he is very fond. He
seems to have unlimited money derived
from his sugar and coffee estates in
the interior, is quite boyish in appear
ance and is the last man you would
pick out for a twentieth century

The Fortieth Regiment was part
of the command of Gen. Bates, which
was sent to subjugate Mindanao island,
which is 700 miles long and the second
island in wealth and Importance of our
new possessions. Lieut.. Buckles says
a landing was effected In February af-

ment, composed of 1878 men. then

TONS OF MONEY.
EngIand's Mint Makes More Coins

by the 100000.
From the London Mail.
The report of the deputy master of
the mint, issued recently. shows that
in the year 1900 the output of new
money in England was beyond all pre-
cedent.
The total number of coins struck was
107, 689, 513, representing 102 tons of
standard gold, 234 tons of standard sill
yer, and 3a1 tons of bronze. In addi-
ton nearly thirty million pieces were
struck in the colonial minis. The money
coined in England alone amounted to
G15,776,169.
All classes of coin showed an .ad-
vance, but the greatest was. in gold,
which amounted to Gl3,594, 493, or fve
millions more than in the previous
year. The silver coined amounted to
over two millions, and the bronze to
e16S,295. The three Australian mints
turned out over ten millions sterling in
sovereigns and half-sovereigns.
A heavy loss is annually incurred by
the withdrawal of light gold. In the
year under notice e1,S00,0 900 was with
drawn, and the actual value of It
proved to be e1.7SO.419 1t costs rough

On the other hand, the mint makes
