CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
a Cofored Boy Mt Rockville SEM to
Jail in Default of Bail.

ROCKVILLE, Nd, Jan. 6.-John Sims. a
colored boy about eighteen years old. was
given hearing Saturday afternoon be-
fore Justice Clifford H. Robertson. upon a
charge of forgery. He was arrested and
lodged in Jail On Wednesday last It was
alleged that on last Saturday Sims went
into the bakery and confectionery store

held The young lady clerk refused to de-
ilFer the goods, saying that Dr. WaTheld,
Mrs. Narheld's husband. had left notice
not TO give the boy anything for them, as
he had been discharged
Mr.. Reisinger paid no particular atten-
ton TO the matter. but on last Tuesday
, night there was fire in the rear end of
Mr.. Reisinger's row of buildings, on the
north side of Commerce Lane and which
at one time threatened the entire row.
The next morning Mr. Reisinger discov-
cred something which threw suspicion on
Sims as being the person who set the
place on fire. He swore out the warrant
with the expectation of proving such
case against Sims. Since then nothing new
mas developed in that line. 1t is charged,
however, that Sims has been forging or

name of Mrs. Warfeld. Mr.. David H.

TO REPLACE LOST BLOOD
A Salt Solution Discovered by DR.. w.
Byron CoaLIey, of Chicago.

Byron Coa6Iey, of Chicago.
CHICAGO, Jan. ga new lease of life
is held out to persons suffering from loss
of blood by disease or injury as the result
of discovery made public for the first
time yesterday. Ordinary salt solution is
the restorative even, IL is said. when 80
per cent Of the blood has been lost. The
new vital method. its discoverer says, is
carrying the recent experiments with salt
by Prof. Loeb step further by giving his
theory practical application
This aid to medical and surgical sci
ence was made after six months investi-
CATION and experiments By DR.. W. Byron
Coakley, an associate of Dr. j. b. Muir
ply. His experiments, it is said. have
made practicable a new system of bleed
ing through a substitution of salt sclu-
lions. According to physicians the treat
ment may be applied TO persons suffering
from pneumonia, typhoid, malarial fevers,
acute and chronic Bright's dis
ease, and all heart affections resulting
from Bright's disease.
DR.. Coakley does not insist that his dis
covery is cure-all. but asserts that his
experiments show that 80 per cent Of the
blood may be extracted or lost and the
patient restored If proper convenlences
and appliances are at hand with which to
perform the work. For many months DR..
Coakley has been experimenting on dogs
and other animals to determine how much
blood could be removed without causing
the death of the animal and what is the
best way to replace blood that has been
lost.
He found that a dog lived after 80 per
cent OF its blood had been let out pro
vided this blood was promptly replaced by
the salt solution.

WASTE OF GOLD IS HEAVY,
Loss and Wear Of the Precious Metal
Amounts 70 . Nilli0a Dol
lars Year,

1t is fortunate ior the world that
new gold mines are being developed
at rapid rate: otherwise there would
soon be n famine in the precious met
nj. The loss by the wear OF gold coins
is In itself OF much consequence. A
competent statistician estimates it at
lk per cent. of the total amount in
circulation. or s37, SOC. 900 for gold and
silver combined. On this basis il may
be calculated that the annual loss
which actually takes place in gold
alone by wear and tear is about s20,-
00o,oo0. Gold is lost in many other
ways. vast quantities are boarded tes-
pecially in foreign countries). and =
large proportion OF this is subsequent
ly lost, as shown by the quantity Of
treasure troye which comes to the
surface every year. though it probably
represents but small part of that
which has been concealed. Every ship
which founders ut sea takes n certain
amount of gold with it. which may
amount anywhere from few dollars
TO millions, il it happens to be laden
with the precious metal. The amount
OF gold required annually in the arts
is estimated at $50. .Oo0, ,oc0 and. as this
calculation was made few years ago,
$i2o. 900. it follows that the amount
used in this way is about double that
which is used as currency.

. wonder,

There is woman on the Chicago
post Office force who Is doing what
no other woman in the city can do.
and very few men. says an exchange
of that city.
About three years ago Miss Hen
rich was put on as a substitute clerk
at the Lincoln park substation, which
distributes mail to one of the largest
districts in the city. During last
year 100000 pieces Of mail were
handled there.
While Miss Heinrich was serving as
substitute she had plenty of spare
time. which she spent in learning the
distribution scheme" which is the
burden Of every green employees life.
The scheme" is an arrangement Of
pigeonholes where the mail is thrown
before being delivered. A, Lincoln
park station there are g. holes, one
for each carrier, and the various
streets and dividing numbers of each
carriers district must be thoroughly
memorized. SO that when the mail ia
dumped on the distributing table in
large sack loads no delay will result
in throwing" the letters properly.
Last November Miss Heinrich was
appointed regular clerk, and at
test given TO the clerks by Superin-
tendent Herman Lieb, the woman
employe asked to be allowed to COM
pete, and she made as good a record
as any of her fellowempioyes by
making only one error In throwing"
500 letters. This has been repeated
every day since her entry into the
service.

AUSTRALIAN NiCKN1KEs,
"Cornstnlks," "Gum-suckers" as(
"CrOw-Eaters" Are Some of the
Pet AppellatioAs.

Although the Australian colonies
have now been linked together in =
commonwealth, it is not probable that
the nickname bestowed by one prov
tnce on another will be abandoned,
says the Leisure Hour. The inhabitants
OF New South Wales have long been
known as "cornstalks," an allusion to
the length and slimness of the aver
age young New South Wales native.
Nictorians are known as "gum-suok-
ers," with reference to the gum that
is found on many native trees, some
OF which is relished by juveniles.
"Crow-eaters," as applied to the south
Australians, owes its origin to a state
ment that in times of drought the
wheat farmers OF south Australia are
driven to the source suggested for
food. "Wheatfielders" is a more eu-
phonious name sometimes used for the
same province. The Queenslanders are
known as banana landers," that trop-
zeal fruit growing there abundantly.
Western Austra.ians-or as they are
now generally called. Westralans-
are known in the east as "sand crop
ers" or "gropers." The Westralians
themselves group all the other states
into "tother side" and call the resi-
dents "tother siders." Tasmania.
green little isle that is like England in
climate and other characteristics, is
generally regarded as very quiet and
rather behind the times, and is re-
ferred to as "the land of lots Of
time" the LAND Of sleep a lot"
and so on, while the inhabitants are
called "Tassies" and "jam-eaters," the
latter being an allusion to the great
fruit production of the tight little
island"
