FIRED FROM HIS POCKET.

Suddenly there was an explosion. A
hundred revolvers were instantly drawn
in the gambling room and the click in
cooking the shooting irons drowned the
click of the worries and the buzz of the
roulette wheel
"Sac-r-r-dam!' cried the little half
breed scattering his handful of gold dust
around the room, and making a wild
jump, he mounted the faro table at
bound The dealer drew his pistol. and
the half-breed was close to the gates
ajar as he cavorted strangely among
the chips scared out Of his wits With
my left 1 drew my remaining pistol and
pointed it at the burly Scot. Mcpherson
All my life was crowded In that one
moment when the sense of danger was
calculated to stretch an hour into eter-
nity or eternity into a moment. Nc
Pherson threw up both hands and shout
ed. nv pistol still holding a cold bead on
him.
Don't! I'm damned fool! I found
out the boys were lying to me!''
Down went my pistol into my left
pocket, while ! began to clap my right
hand on my right pocket, which was
afire, with my weather eye still on the
xican-Frenchman, who was ready and
eager to fight me. The bullet had
creased the gamblers skin and cut open
his trousers, which covered the broadcast
part of his person I hurriedly begged
his pardon, dragged him out Of the
gambling room, glad to get out alive,
and with difficulty explained the sttua-
ton
When he began to comprehend he
laughed until the tears ran down MS
face, more particularly after 1 had told
him in the best Mexican I could master
that If he would meet me at my hotel
the next day at noon I would order for
him at my tailor's the best suit OF
clothes money could buy. The suit cost
me $780, and I gave him, BESIDES 500 in
gold, and the jingling of the guinea
helped the hurt his honor felt pos
teriori. This man proved ito be rough
diamond and became my fast friend.
The old Scotchman spent a week with
me. but he never again recognized any
of the crowd whose pleasantly came
near costing three people their lives.
Dugald Mcpherson died the next year,
full of years and ducats, and left me
100000 in gold by way of apology for
his mistake.

displacement 5000 tons greater than the
battleships of the Virginia class. With a
speed of something like twenty knots, the
Korea will be the fastest ship on the Pa
cific until the arrival of her sister ship,
and then the Pacific Mail will have two
vessels, equipped both for heavy passen-
ger and freight traffic, which will be the
finest vessels travelling out Of San Fran
cisco or entering Hongkong. The Siberia
will follow the Korea in about month,
and after the engines are installed ana
the vessels are completed and ready Tor
delivery they will probably start together
for the Pacific.
The Korea will be required to make
eighteen knots an hour. but the proha-
bility is that she will be a twenty-knot
ship easily. Her dimensions follow:
Length over all, 572 feet 4 inches: beam,
.65 feet; depth, 20 feet; draught, q feet;
displacement, 1850 tons. The only
American-built ships which approach
the Korea in size are the st. Louis and
the St Paul, of the American lines New
York-London service. Their Dimensions
are: Length 536.5 feet; BEAM 60 feet;
depth, 26.8 feet. Their displacement is
not nearly SO great rs that Of the Pacific
Mail ships.

odd Facts About Our Coins.

The use of the "E Pluribus Unum" on
coin was never authorized by law. Its
first known use was on q New Jersey

came from the German thaler; Dutch,
daalder, Danish daler. and Italian tallers.

of the standard dollar, and first appeared
on sample coins made for congress and
spelled 'disme." When our coinage took
the place of Spanish coinage the dimes
supplanted the real. known as a shilling
in New York, in Virginia as levy ana
in Louisiana as a bit. The word cent
comes from the French centime (hun-
dredth), derived from the Latin centum;
one hundred.
