Curious Legal Tender.

Almost every age and tribe. as well
as every epoch, has had it's peculiar
currency or medium of barter and ex-
change-not only gold, silver. copper,
brass, iron, lead and paper, but such
out of the way articles as bits of glass.
shells, beads, stones. soap, bits of vari-
GUS colored cloth and numerous other
objects, some of them absolutely value
less to our way of looking at the mat
ter.
The Burmese, Karens, Hangese and
Ghans have no coined money, lead and
silver in bullion being the ordinary ten
der In trade, weight and purity being
she standard of value. For long time
salt was the ordinary money Of the
Abyssinians.
Dried fish has long been and is even
today to certain extent the legal ten
der of Iceland. Shad scales are also
the medium of exchange in many of
the North sea islands.

QUAINT COLLEGE LAWS.
Rules Prescribing the Dress of Har-

Rules Prescribing the Dress of Har.
ward Students In BygOne Days.
The curious laws regarding students
dress which prevailed at Harvard up to
the middle of the last century are illus
trated by two eighteenth century waist
coats which are among the collections
of the Boston Art museum. One was
worn by member of the class of 1749
and the other by his son in 1854.
The latter waistcoat is olive green in
color. conforming to the college regula-
tions, which required either blue gray,
plain black, Nlankeen"-a kind of buff
or olive. The coat and breeches which
originally went with it, as one may
read in the old time Harvard Laws"
were blue gray. Freshmen of that date
were allowed only plain buttonholes,
sophomores leaped to the dignity of
having buttons on their cuffs, juniors
might have inexpensive frogs to their
buttonholes except that they might not
have them on their cuff buttonholeS.
and the senior enjoyed frogs, button
holes and buttons complete. Seniors
and juniors were permitted also to
wear black Oxford gowns, such as are
worn at graduation today, and a might
gown" or dressing gown, was per-
missible on certain unimportant occa-
sions. 1t cost mot more than 10 shil-
lings" for every appearance of gold or
silver adornment.
The rules of costume were changed,
of course, from time to time. In 1928,
for example. the prescribed dress con-
sisted of black mixed coat, single
breasted, with rolling cape square
at the end and with pocket flaps, the
waist reaching to the natural waist.
with lapels of the same length" 1t is
explained that "black mixed" called
also Oxford mixed. was black with not
more than one-twentieth nor less than
one-twenty-fift part of white The
senior was allowed to support his dig
nifty with three crows feet of black
silk cord on the lower part of his coat
sleeve. Two crows feet were permitted
to the junior one to the sophomore and
none at all to the freshman. The waist
coat was of black mixed or of black or,
when of cotton or linen fabric, of white;
single breasted. with a standing collar.
The pantaloons were of black mixed.

Cruel Contests.

Bird singing contests for money and
other prizes are not so frequent In
England as formerly. Many of the
little competitors, notably chaffinches
were subjected to dire cruelty on these
occasions.
To make them sing their eyes were
pierced by redhot needle for the pur-
pose of completely binding them. This
was done to prevent any opposing ex-
hibitor from frightening the birds and
stopping their singing, an end which
was obtained by waving some object
in front Of them. Blinded, the birds
could see nothing, and they sang.
The cruel practice has been practical
ly stamped out by the action of the
Royal Society For the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Animals. who issued numer
GUS summonses against offenders. II
may be that in some dark corner of the
country the same cruelty is still prac
ticed, but the custom as system II
now done away with.-Pearson's.

Now that the oil stock selling
schemes in Boulder have quit adj
vertising in the Denver daily
newsp .pers, those publications
have suddenly discovered that
there is nothing occurring in that
field worth reporting. This might
have bsen made public long ago
except for the reason that the
business office" of many news
papers dictates what news matter
may appear in print, and where an
advertiser is willing to pay liber-
ally for news, he always is suited
as to the quality. OF course the
speculative public is buncoed, and
some of the Denver dalies are re-
sponsible for it.

THE Rocky Mountain Smelter
company is said to have received
an offer of the equivalent value in
cash to correspond with the value
of the plant The estimated value
of the smelter is 100000 and
if the offer is accepted, this
amount will be put up and ex-
pended in improving and enlarg
ing the plant. The deal is said to
be under consideration by the
stockholders. The entire amount
would be used as working capital
and vast improvements would be
made from time to time as the oc-
casion demands. With this amount
invested the Rocky Mountain

assistance had appeared and the
horse was put under control.

possession of the police department.
and suggested that the war records
be examined for Hight on the subject.
Col. Sanger issued an order to that
effect and the record was found of the
New York police having been supplied
with arms by the United States gov
sernnent during the time Of the draft
riots. On Oct. IL, Commissioner Part
ridge was Informed in an official COM
nunication from the war department
of what had been ascertained. An in
spector Of rifle practice stationed at
Governors island, acting under orders
visited the storehouse of the police de-
partment and identified the arms as
United States property. All that re-
mains now is to unwind some red
tape" and the guns will be actually re-
stored to the government, and the in
cident of so many years closed.
~ In years past there was much Specu-
lation and many theories advanced as
to just how the police department came
into possession of the arms. Beyond
connecting the weapons with the riots
of 1863, inquiries got no further in
positive conclusion. 1t was suggested
that rioters had raided gunsmiths'
shops, helping themselves to the guns,
and that the police had taken the arms
from the rioters afterward; again, that
the police themselves had removed the
guns from gunsmiths' shops, to pre-
clude the rioters getting them, and
again, that the guns originally came
from the old arsenal at Thirty fifth
street and Seventh avenue.

MISHAP AT OPERATION
BY PROF. LORENZ
Femur Of Patient Breaks, but Child
Will Not Be injured
Permanently.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22-Pref. Adolf Lorenz
had the first mishap in his American
experiences at today's clinic at Mercy
hospital The femur of Belle Mason,
on whom he was operating, broke while
the doctor was treating her. The frac-
ture was accompanied with sharp
report that was heard all over the am
phitheater. Prof. Lorenz stopped the
operation at once and explained that
the accident was. the tenth that had
occurred in the course of his caring
for more than 1000 cases Of disloca-
ton of the hip. The patient is detain-
ed in the hospital securely bound in
plaster bandages. 80 M
1T postpones the operation" he said,
t'but in no way affects the ultimate out
come. In fact, the patient is in better
condition than before the fracture,
and there is better assurance of her
complete recovery from the deformity."
Physicians who have studied Prof.
Lorenzs methods agreed with him
that the accident would work no per-
manent injury to the child. Eight 9TH
er children were operated on success
fully by DR.. Lorenz during today's
clinic.
