LESSON THAT WAS NEEDED,

tion Upon a Philadelphia
In Munich.

A Philadelphia railroad contractor,
who has recently returned from
abroad, tells of an experience that be.
fell him in Munich illustrative of the
difference in prevailing customs, says
an exchange of that city. Armed with
n number of letters of introduction 10
European railroad officials. he made it
n point to inquire into the workings Of
the various systems, and was treated
with uniform courtesy. At Munich he
thought he had acquired all the in
formation he was after, and as he
passed out of the Office of he man with
whom he had been talking he pu. on
his hat.
He had scarcely been ushercd out
when it occurred to him that there was
one more matter about which he had
forgotten to inquire. 81 Immediately
retraced my steps" said the Philadel-
phian, "and again entered the office,
neglecting to remove my hat. ! saw
the same official with whom had been
talking, and, apoloGizing for king wv.

to him. Without Il word he reached I'd,
took off my ha, and placed il in my

FIRST PAPER MACHINE.
Fourdrtafer Machine Firss Intro
daced in sauEertiea, New
York, In 1877,

Saugerties is proud because the first
paper machine used in America was
made in that village. This is what the
Paper Trade Journal Says about it:
The nineteenth century will always
be remarkable in the history of paper
making in The United States. Early
in the century-in lS27-the Fonrdrin-
Ter machine was introduced 10 this
country at Saugerties, \. ", while the
cylinder machine, as TO the invention
of which there are conflicting claims
on behalf of British and Anne rican in
yeutors, came into use in this country
about ten years earlier. The Fourdrin-
ier machine has been improved in al
most all its details by United States
builders, until now the high speed ma
chine made in this country holds the
record the world over. 1t has demon
strated its ability TO make $50 feet of
paper minute, and keep it up, aud
there are builders to-day who expect
that in the not far distant future that
speed will be very largely increased"

WHY NEGROES DIE YOUNG.
Death Rate Among Colored
People.

The American Missionary associa-
tion makes public report from one of
its representatives. in Nashville, Tenn,
concerning the death rate among the
negroes of the south. The report
states that in ten representative south
ern cities for the past five wears the
death rate of the whites has been 20 in
1000; that of the colored people, a. in
1000. The south is said not to have
shown much concern about the rapid
increase of the negro, since the census
of 1900 made 1t appear that in the ten
years previous the black race in
creased 1924 per cent. and white 23.91
per cent The death rate of the negro
is greatest under the age OF Is and
least at the higher ages. The race is
subject to u higher death rat te than the
whites from the following Diseases.
I. Consumption at all ages, but espe-

Water L. the Philippines

In asking the natives for water in
the Philippines our soldiers learned
that in one province the word was
"aqua," in another ''tuhig" and in a
third "denum." So "wate" or "watty"
has been implanted in the Filipino dia-
leets. Another American intr roduction
is ''chow chow" meaning food. The
natives also have invented word from
looking on at games of ehuek-a-luck.
They think "upshecVMes' is an Eng
ish name for all kinds of gambling.

TRAMP'S ESCAPE.
Most Remarkable Thing That Has
Occurred in an Engineers Twen-
ty Years Experience.

John Smith, a well-known Illinois
Central passenger engineer, relates
remarkable story about a man whom
he found asleep on the ties of rail
road track few nights ago.
Mr.. Smith was bringing into Chi
cago the Fish special, occupied by Pres
ident Stuyvesant Fish and other Off
Gals of the road, returning from gem
eral inspection of the line, when, about
a mile north of Ashkum, he saw dim
ly outlined some unknown object, APP
parently sitting on the rails. The
engineer supposed it was a man, and
at once applied the emergency brake,
says the Chicago Tribune.
The engine had nearly passed the
object when it stopped. Descending
from the cab, Mr.. Smith found man
soundly sleeping. He was sitting
with his back to the rails, and so close
to them that his head would have
struck the oil caps of the engine had he
arisen.
The noise made by the approaching
locomotive had not awakened the man.
and ne was not aware of his danger
until the engineer grasped his shout
der and roughly shook him.
Let me alone. faint time to get
up" he protested, drowsily.
Had the man raised his head an inch
when the engine approached he would
have been killed.
1t was the most remarkable thing
that has occurred during the en-
gineer's 25 years experience.
Engineer Smith the next night ran
over and killed an unknown coloreG
man at Chehanse, the second station
from Ashkum. The colored man ac-
cidentally stepped in front Of the To-

ABOUT SEVEN AND FORTY.
These Are Numbers That Occur Free
QuentIy in Biblical Records
and History,

Seven is holy number. Forty, like
thirteen, is a superstitious one, says
the New York Press. Did you ever try
to enumerate its virtues? Moses was
40 days on the mount; Elijah was 40
days fed by ravens; the rain of the
food fell 40 days; another 40 days ex-
pired before Noah opened the window
of the ark; 40 days was the period of
embalming; Nineveh had 40 days to re-
pent; our Lord tasted 40 days; He was
seen 40 days after His resurrection
ST. Swithin betokens 40 days of rain or
dry weather; quarantine extends to
40 days; the privilege of sanctuary
was for 40 days; 40 days was the limit
for the payment Of fine for man
slaughter; the widow was allowed to
remain in her husbands house for 40
days after his death. etc.
Hamlet loved Ophelia harder than

Giles Of the Anglican church are 40

forbidden by the Mosaic law to infiict
more than 40 stripes on an offender,
and for fear of breaking the law they
stopped short of the number.

DEAF MUTES AT THE PLAY.
More of the UnfortunatPs Than Usual
nt the Theater During the
Past Season.

zone curious phase of the theatric-
al business of the past season has
been the number of deaf mutes in the
audiences" said the head usher of a
New York theater. "For several
years a good many deaf mutes have
been attending performances of pan
dramas, spectacular plays and high
ly spiced melodramas, but this year
they seem to have declared them
selves in favor OF high art, and have
patronized dramas that are short on
action, but long on talk. Deaf mutes
generally attend the theater in a
party. We have had them come to
our house in winter in squads of 20
or 30. Mute auditors of a play al
ways buy good seats. Being deprived
of enjoyment through one of their
senses, they have to make up for the
loss by catering TO the sense of sight
and they choose seats that give
clear view of the stage Another
thing noticeable about them is the
enthusiasm with which they applaud
'At first blush il might seem strange
to see so many of the deaf and dumb
focking to the theater, but they are
really but little worse off than the av-
erage American who goes to see a play
in foreign tongue. The American
hears, but as he is unable to under
stand two words of the dialogue he
has to depend upon his eyes for his
knowledge of the action, so in that re-
spect he and the mutes are quits"

An inquisitive commuter on ono of
the trains that pulled into the
Grand Central station had his dignity
ruffied the other day by facetious
engineer. The commuter wore a golf
suit of the latest pattern. His suit
wasn't rufiled, but his temper was,
when the engineer took him for BIZ
cycle rider. Mr.. Inquisitive, seeing
that the big locomotive in the yard
was in some sort of trouble, yelled
at The engineer query as to what
was the matter. His curiosity was
satisfied and his suit of clothes in
suited when the grimy engineer
shouted back at him: Nothing much;
just punctured my tire. Got pocket
pump with you?"

DOLLARS IN ODD SHAPES.
Process Through Which the silver
Is Put Before Ii Becomes
Coin.

Under the law, silver dollar may
be a grain and half over weight, and
this "limit of tolerance" applies to all
of our silver coins. In other words,
they are not allowed to vary more than
that much from standard. In the case
of gold pieces, the limit is half grain
either way, up to the eagle; a variation
of as much as one grain being permis-
sible in the $40 and $50 pieces, says the
Saturday Evening Post.
Whenever fresh batch of dollars is
turned out at the mint, samples are
forwarded To the trt asury at Washing
ton, where they are put through IA
very curious process. Each dollar Is
first Wti.aed on eNquisitely delicate
scales. 50 make sure that it is heavy
enough and yet not too heavy. Then it
passes between two steel rollers again
and again, until it is hattened out and
transformed into thin strip of sill
vera sort of ribbun--a foot and half
in length. Then it is put beneath a
little machine provided with several
small punches, by which hundreds OF
tiny disks are punched out of the
metal strip.
Now, the object Of this performance
is to obtain samples of metal from all
parts Of the dollar, inaSmuch as il is
conceivable that one portion might DE
richer in silver than another. The
little disks are shutiled together, and
few of them, taken ut random rom
the lot. are subjected to an assay. Thus
the fneness of the material of the dol-
lar is ascertained with absolute ac-
cnracy, and, the weight having bee,
already determined, the value and cor
rertneSs of that coin are perfectly
known.
The sample pieces having been found
correct il is inferred that the entire
batch of dollars is all right.

SPECULATION IN 1901 CENTS.
They VIII Easily Bring Hineteen
Dollars in the Coin
Market.

A clustering young woman, out of
breath as though walking fast,
rushed up the steps of the mint the
other day, and asked to be directed
20 the bureau of information.
There isn't any," replied the uni
formed messenger, very fat man,
reports the Philadelphia Record.

pointed to a paragraph which read:
Among the curiosities of collecting
is the fact that 1901 cents now bring

The fat messenger adjusted his
glasses and scrutinized the para
graph. While he was thus ngaged
the young woman explained that she
had four 1901 cents, and wanted TO
know what made them so valuable,
and where she could realize on them.
Then the fat messenger grew purple
in the face from suppressed laughter,
which finally exploded and seemed in
momentary danger of having an
apol,eptic fit. lie called the atten-
ton of the other messengers to tie
paragraph, and then followed com
bned roars of merriment. In the
meantime the young woman with the
four 1901 cents wondered if she had

DONE BY POST OFFICE WOMAN
Empioye in the Chicago Department
Who Has Accomplished
Wonder.

There is a 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 Substatiou, 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
redistribution scheme" which is the
burden of every green employees life
The scheme" is an arrangement of
pigcOnholes wherc the mail is thrown
before being delivered. At Lincoln
park station there are 81 holes, one
for each carrier, ard the various
streets aud dividing numbers OF each
carriers district must be thoroughly
menoriZed, so that when the mail is
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
empIoye asked to lac allowed TO com
pee, and she made as good a record
as any of her fellow-employcs 10y
making only one error in Throwing"
500 letters. This has been repeated
every day since her entry into the
service.
