from the chemists appointed to deter
mine the amount of cane sugar in con-
signments of pineapples valued at $751;

posed the ad Valorem tax of 80 per cent

THE BARONESS DUG GOLD.
She Brought Out $2oo,ooo of Precious
 Metal From the klondike.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
 Baroness Lillian yon Ailse. a German woman of noble birth who Is known as the only practical woman miner in all of Alaska, is in Chicago. and after an absence of four years at Cape Nome, Dawson City and other points of the great Eldorado within the Arctic circle She came here to buy machinery for hy- draulic mining and ten-room portable house. which she will have shipped in sections to Cape Nome.
 When she has completed her purchases she will visit with her friends here and at St. Louis until the ice breaks up in the spring, when she will return to the Klondike. The baroness is only 30 years old and Is unmarried. having taken her title from her father, Baron Karl Won Tilse of Leipsig, Germany. who came to the United States about twenty eight years ago and resided both in Cincinnati and St. Louis.
 She went to the Klondike not because it was necessary for her to make her own living, but because love for ad- venture led her to seek the gold fields. A fortune was left her by her father, and the first business in which she engaged was wheat speculation in Los Angeles She made money for a time, but finally

This season OLeary has competitor in this kind of betting. The new entry in the field is Joe Ullman, who recently opened the Southern Club at Hot Springs
 It is said that Ullman and his partners Dan Stuart G. B. Dugan and Leo Meyer have one of the finest gambling clubs in the country. The place is claimed to excell anything which has ever been opened at that great American Monte Carlo Hot Springs. Anyway. a future book on the Memphis race has been is- sued by the club. In this book the prices run from to 1 on the favorite to 800 to 1 on a long shot. A number of the best known horses in the race are quoted at such long prices at 50. 75 10 and 200 to 1. s. c. Hildreth is going to make a great attempt to win this stake. He has six horses entered, including Waring, the favorite in the books and Rolling Boer, the latter at 40 to l. George Bennett has no entry in the race.
 Tn one of the saloons of the city there is said to be a clock which is unique in a way I have not seen it myself, never frequenting saloons, but a drunkard friend told me about it. It cost him money and was the cause of a self-con- demnation almost to the effect that he suffered from jimmies.
 This clock has hands which run back wards. It Is placed across the room from a large mirror, and 1t Is not expected that drinking men will look other than at the mirror when desrous of learning the time. But this drunkard walked into the place few days ago and set his watch by the clock. At the time it was really 15 minutes until o'clock but 1t seemed that 1t was 15 minutes past to a man who was not familiar with the workings of the instrument.
 The next day the man in question dis covered his watch was to the bad just 30 minutes. He became alarmed and imme- diately went in search of Jeweler' s shop where he could have 1t repaired at small cost. This jeweler did a bad job and charged a good price. Still the watch did not run as it should, and this time it was taken to a good jeweler who put 1t in proper condition. He charged a still larger price.
 Later the man discovered the story of the clocks workings; and since has been busy saying nice words about his marked ability and the aforesaid jewellers.

TAMING HORSES WHILE YOU WAIT.

Morton B. Smith, an American horse trainer. has been astonishing the na- tiyes in Paris by his wonderful methods of subduing wild. unbroken and refrac- tory horses. Twenty minutes is consider ed time enough to break in the most un- ruly animal for riding or driving.
 The method employed Is exceedingly simple, though none the less vigorous. The horse to be broken is lassoed, thrown and held down while being bridled. To a stout girth strapped around the horses body are fastened several cannon balls weighing about six pounds each, a few sleigh bells and other noise producers. MT. Smith takes tight hold of the end of a pair of long reins attached to the bridle, gives a signal to his assistants who release the animal and braces him self for the shock that follows.
 Every wild plunge of the horse is fol- lowed by dozen thumps from the swing ing cannon balls on the back or ribs. No animal handled by MT Smith has fought for more than five or ten minutes against this treatment. Tired out and subdued they have submitted quietly while being harnessed and driven around the arena.
 Six hundred French officers of all ranks assembled a few days ago to watch MT. Smith attempt to tame a
The age-herald., 1902-03-09

number of vicious and refractory horses provided by the French military authori- ties. The American trainer began with a horse called Idole, belonging to Lieut. enant Labruyere, of the Ecole de Guerre. This animal, is a very fine horse, was useless to its owner, as it refused to be either saddled or harnessed. As soon as MT. Smith had applied his methods to it 1t became like a lamb was saddled and brided harnessed to a carriage, driven through clouds of steam made to face shriekng sirens, and allowed flags and open umbrellas to be Tapped in It's face. At the end of quarter of an hour MT. Smith flung the reins on its back and stood up in the carriage while the horse stood quietly facing rushing clouds
 of steam.
 The experim ent with pretty little
 half Arab mare belonging to Captain Penelon aide-decamp of General Brugere,
 was equally successful. She refused to | face steam, smoke railway trains or | tramways, and had twice nearly killed | her rider by rearing right back on him. At the end of twenty minutes she faced every possible nerve-trytng instrument in MT. Smiths paraphernalia, and was fin- ally harnessed for the first time in her
 life to a carriage and driven in double
 harness with the preceding horse, fin-
 ally drawing up in the midst of a Ve- suvius of blazing and cracking fireworks.
 Its owner declared the result to be some thing approaching the miraculous
