Ekillful Shoplifting.

New York Letter: Three women and
a man, comprising an expert gang Of
shoplifters from this city, were arrest
ed in Newark Saturday night, with
nearly a wagon load Of plumber taken
from the counters of three or four big
department stores in that city. The
detectives found that the women had
no big pockets in their skirts or shop
lifters' bags. but were provided with
hooks and strings, and had hooks on
the heels Of their shoes. Things which
they had brushed from the counters to
the floor were adroitly lifted with q
heel hook and suspended inside Of the
skirt. One worked at a time. and
transferred the loo! to a companion In
some dark hallway, where the goods
were made secure under the skirts un-
til the final transfer was made to tbs
sachels carried by the man

diamond Cut diamond"

Probably most people know that
nothing but a diamond will cut dia-
mend, and so the diamond is extern
sively employed in all the diamond
cutting factories in Amsterdam. a
stone Of 400 carats can be split in Is
minutes by s%killfully pressing n ydia-
mond against the other on the spot
where a flaw occl-s. the diamond in
the right hand being used as a knife.
Where a flaw occurs a split soon takes
place, and the diamond divides into
two stones. Should there be another
flaw in either OF these the operation il
again repeated, until several pure,faw-
less diamonds lie on the rough wooden
table, and the first process is success
fully accomplished.

MIX Consumed in New York.

For New York consumers there are
daily delivered into the city 1,250.OGG
quarts of cows milk. This amount
comes from five states, including "a
counties, and some of it from a dis
lance Of 500 miles. The city itself,
however, is no small dairy ground, as
%, 800 COWS are contained within the
municipal limits, which furnish a GER
tain amount of milk for the inhab-
itants. There are in the boroughs OF
Manhattan, Bronx and BROOKLYN over
30 wholesale and retail milk dealers,
whose capital ratings, according to the
commercial agencies range from $4,000
to 81, 0 600.

Gave Up His Job.

A good joke is going the rounds that
during the progress Of a sanctiied
meeting at Island, KY, an oveT-zeal-
Gus brother concluded he was the
means Of transportation from this
earth to the better land. So, lowering
himself upon his hands and knees. he
cried out: ANY one who wants to go
to heaven get on and let's CO." Two
or three men rode off like a bucking
broncho, when upon his return he
called for another passenger, and a
young man equipped with two heavy
spurs mounted the conveyance provid-
ed and began to drive the rowels into
each side, which caused the impover-
ished mule to quicken his pace, and
| the passenger was soon landed.-Cal-
houn (Ky.) Star.

-.---ss =" .EoaG.ME r as.ESg-..
Consul Harris, at Mannheim, re-
ports to the state department that
something like the corn kitchen at the
Paris exposition will be necessary to
induce the Germans to accept Indian
corn as a proper food. The consul
says: 1.-The average German is cer-
tainly prejudiced against corn as an
article of food, except for cattle and
swine, but that this prejudice can be
overcome there is little doubt. He has
no h~esitancy in using cornstarch, nor
does he object to beet sugar, although
beets form al important article of
food for cows; and if he can be shown
that corn, properly ground and pre-
pared, makes a palatable, wholesome
and cheap article of food his opposi-
ton will. in my judgment, disappear

The Gent1eman,s Psalm.

A reader of the Scriptures empha-
sizes the fifteenth Psalm as the gen
tleman's Psalm, because it describes as
among the many who are entitled to
be considered as gentlemen one who
leadeth an incorrupt life, speaketh
truth from his heart, doeth no evil to
his neighbor, is lowly in his own eyes,
keepeth his word, even it be to his
