Cents East and West.

'There is always a scarcity Of pen
MES in the west" says an official of
the Philadelphia mint, "and a super
abundance of them in the east. Every
little while the banks out there set up
a boot and cry for pennies, but our
banks here are ever glad to rid them
selves of their surplusage in these
coins. It is difficult to see why such a
state Of things should be. I'm sure a
penny is just as dear to the eastern
er's heart as to the westerners. One
would no more throw q penny away
than would the other, yet here we al
ways have too many pennies. There
they never seem to have enough"

SaIuting With the Hat.

Before the invention Of wigs the hat
was rarely removed except to salute
others, especially royal personages. 1t
was worn at table when ladies or per-
sons Of rank We're present. Except
when saluting royalty it was the Gus
tom merely to raise the hand to the hat
somewhat after the manner Of q mill
tary salute. When it became the mode
to wear a profusion of false hair, the
hat was less needed as protection for
the head and was carried under the
arm

HAS A MONTH TO LIVE
Czolgosz Sentenced to Die in the Electric
Chair Next Month.

Buffalo, Sept 27-Leon f. Czoigosz,
the assassin of President Mckinley.
was yesterday sentenced to die in the
during the week beginning Oct. %,
1901. Before sentence was passed the
assassin evinced a desire to speak, but
he could not get his voice above a
whisper, and his words were repeated
to the court by his counsel. There
was no one else but me- the prisoner
said in a whisper. mo one else told
me to do it, and no one paid me to do
it. l was not told anything about the
crime, and 1 never thought anything
about that until couple of days be-
fore I committed the crime"
CZOlgOsZ then sat down. He was
quite calm, but it was evident that his
mind was flooded with thoughts of his
own distress. At this point Judge
Titus came over to the prisoner and
bade him good-by. Czolgosz replied
very family, letting his eye rest upon
the man who has been his counsel.
"Good-by," he said weakly.
CZOlgOsZ was then hurried down
stairs and through the tunnel Of sobs''
to the Jail, where he will remain until
removed to Auburn to pay the penalty
for his crime
Sheriff Caldwell and sixteen men
left at 1906 p. m. yesterday with Czol-
gosZ for Auburn prison.
Auburn, n. Y, Sept PSYCHOLOGIST,
the assassin, en- route here chatted with
his guards, smoked cigars and said he
was sorry he had killed the president;
that he would not have done it if he
had not been out Of his senses. Up to
his arrival in the prison he kept up his
courage, but after passing the thresh-
old he screamed, groaned and utterly
collapsed, so far as nerve is concerned.
He recovered his nerve later and was
the same apparently Indifferent man he
had previously been.

Almost every dying person is liable
to be allured by the solemn attitude Of
the company and the restrained Or
flowing torrents Of tears and emotions
to an alternating conscious and uncon-
scious comedy of conceitedness. The
seriousness with which every dying

the very finest enjoyment of his life to
many a poor despised devil and sort

Causes Apprehension.
New York, Sept. 30.-The Columbia,
in the first race of the America cup
series-ffteen miles to Windward and
return-defeated the Shamrock II by
50 seconds actual time and / minute
and % seconds corrected time. Both
yachts sailed WELL and the Shamrock
led at the turn of the outer mark by Al
seconds The wind at the start was
blowing nine to ten miles an hour, but
after the outer mark was reached it
dropped to seven or eight miles. AS
it dropped the Columbia showed her
heels to the Shamrock II.
During the race Sir Thomas LiptOn's
yacht Erin was struck by the revenue
boat Gresham, and J. J. Astors yacht
Nourmahal was struck by the liner
North Star Some damage was done,
but no lives lost.
Sir Thomas Upton admits that the
defeat was square, but is praying for
more wind next time. 1t was the clos
est and most thrilling race ever sailed
for the cup, the yachts being within
speaking distance of each other during
the whole run.
The race was so close and the i'm
provement Of the Shamrock with Il
good breeze so noticeable that it was
and anxious lot of yachtsmen that
gathered yesterday at the New York
Yacht club for a talk about the chances
of the Columbia in her next contest
with the Shamrock II tomorrow. The
wind, although stronger Saturday than
Thursday, was not very brisk, as can
be seen when it is known that the
boats only made on the average Sc
miles an hour Saturday.

DEATH TO SEVEN MEN
Explosion of an Oil Tank While L. Wa

New York, Sept. 27-Six men, and

injured by the explosion yesterday of
an oil tank of the Essex and Hudson
Gas company at Newark, N. J. The
known dead are: Lawrence Kirch
employed in the works., William
Meyer, Otto Newman foreman at the
works., Alfred Snyder, Nicholas Mil

witnesses say there is a body in the
river, as they saw it hurled high in
the air and thrown in that direction.
The tank which exploded was one
of a number of immense steel reSer
voirs which was undergoing it's peri
odical cleaning, it having been emp
tied of it's oil in the morning. The
tank was twenty feet deep and Kirch,
Meyer and Newman entered through
the manhole without taking the pre-

them. They were Immediately over

with chisels to cut a large ring in the
