Industrial exposition in 1890.
Just one year later the young man
was raised to the rank of commander,

his own suddenly acquired importance
as heir presumptive.
The Duchess of York. his wife. was
formerly the pretty Princess May of

methods of living. not one woman in
a thousand approaches this perfectly
natural change without experiencing

Those dreadful hot flashes, sending
the blood surging to the heart until 1T

Thre steaed TO Kidnsp Her Child.

Bucyrus, o.. Feb. 12.--More letters
threatening to kidnap Bucyrus children
have been received, and since the facts
have become known new cases are be-
ing reported to the officials.
The most daring of all the bold cases
was that of Mrs. Candance Began, who
lives on one of the principal residence
streets of the city. Mrs. Began received
threatening letter demanding that she
send $50 to G. B. Ikeman, care of the
leading Bucyrus hotel, or her child
would be stolen and she never would
see it again. Mrs. Began paid no at
tention to the letter, and the second day
after she received it she was called to
the telephone and was astonished by
the statement of the party at the other
end of the line that he was Ikeman. and
he wanted to know whether she pro-
posed to send the $50 or not. Mrs
Began replied in the negative, where
upon the fellow repeated his threats and
said he would give her until the next
day at 10 o'clock to comply.

THROWING MONEY AWAY.

OF the total amount of money spent
for one thing or in one way, we have no
doubt but that larger percentage is
wasted on upholstering than in any other
way. What we mean is this. A chair or
a sofa gives out and needs upholstering.
Instead of taking it to some thorough
ly reliable man like Burgdorf, ninety
nine people out of every hundred will
take it to some cheap John who agrees
to do the job for two dollars, and the
two dollars they pay is two dollars
thrown away The work looks all right
when it is done, but it soon goes to
pieces and in three months it is ready
for some other furniture butcher, And
it never looks anything except shabby
The work Burgdorf of 2ooo 9TH St.,N
W., does is done right. He don't do any
shabby work. He has one price and that
is for the best Workmanship in this
world. His upholstered work stands up
and lasts for twenty years and it is
really the cheapest kind in the long run.
If you want to throw your money away
go to furniture butcher. If you want
a satisfactory job, go to Burgdorf, 2ooo

MlNEY COINED BY MINrs
The Report Of Director ROber for the
Last Fiscal Year.

Washington, d. c. (SpcciaD The
report of Mr.. George L. Roberts di-
rector of the mint, upon the operations
OF the mint service during the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1901, has been completed
The coinage Of the mints during the
fiscal year amounted to I76,9ooI32 pieces
of the value of $I36,34o,7 78I. OF this $oo-
o657I5 was in gold $24, ,2o8,S5o was in
silver dollars, $Ioo66,648 was in frac-
tlonal silver and $2,ooo568 was in min
or coin. There also we're coined at the
Philadelphia mint 225,ooo gold pieces Of
the value of $34ooI4 for the Govern.
ment of Costa Rica.
The coinage of silver dollars during
the year was wholly from the stock of
bullion accumulated under the act of
July II, 1900. The amount of this bull
lion on hand at the beginningof the fiscal
year was 3,268,o54 standard ounces, and
at the end Of the year 52,562,o27 stand
ard ounces. The coinage of this bullion
has been accelerated to enable the treas
ury to retire the treasury notes issued
IN its purchase and at the same time sup
ply the pressing demand which has ex-
isted throughout the year for the small
denominations of money required in re-
tail trade.
Coinage operations were conducted dur
ing the year in the mints at Philadel-
phia, San Francisco and New Orleans.
The Philadelphia mint is now in its new
quarters and the old site, including the
structure, will be offered for sale to the
highest bidder on December 10, 1901.
An upset price of 100000 has been
placed upon it. The original cost Of the
ground to the Government was $35S4o.
The cost of the new site and structure
has been $2,ooo,ooo, and the appropria-
ton for equipment $4,000, but a con-
siderable portion of the latter is yet I'M
expended. No pains have been spared
to provide this mint with the best ma
chinery to be had, and it is believed
that in methods and equipment it will
be, when completed, a model institution
of its kind.
