The late DR.. newman Hall was very
fond of mountain climbing and spent
many of his holidays in Switzerland.
He always made a point of exerting
himself in the hotels for the promo
ton of friendly intercourse and in
this way he made the acquaintance of
a very large number of persons of
all ranks and creeds. Towards the
end of his life he was almost as In
defatigable as in his prime in preach
ing all over the country. One little
foible he had on these occasions was
of recommending his hearers to pur-
chase his books, the profits OF which,
however, he devoted to special work.

Edward 1. and Eleanor were crowned
there together. Moreover, that coro-
nation was the first that took place
in the present abbey. Edward H. had
no queen when he was crowned, Ed
ward III. was boy at the time, Ed

V. was never crowned at all. Edward
". was crowned when he was but 10
years of age. So the only precedent
is of good omen; for Eleanor as the
most devoted wife that ever was
queen. She it was who sucked the
poison from her husbands wound.
And it was her husband who set up
a cross at every hating place of her
coffin until it came to Charing Cross,

Diamonds and other jewels have
been lost in all sorts of queers ways,
but in none more unusual than the
accident mentioned in the Boston
Transcript, by which a diamond
brooch was snatched from the owners

plains.
A young woman was travelling by
rail through Kansas. At kinsley,
where the train made q considerable
stop, fair was in progress. Here the
young woman bought of peddler
toy balloon for a little girl who had
won her fancy.
The child was delighted with the
plaything, and as they rode along she
chatted with her new friend and pulled
the balloon up and down. At length
she playfully fastened the string to
the lady's diamond brooch.
The train was rounding a curve at
the moment and strong gust of air
came through the car. The balloon
was carried out through the open
window. The sudden jerk on the
string loosened the brooch, and away

The jewel was so valuable that the
young woman offered a reward of five
hundred dollars for its recovery.
Spurred by this incentive, cowboys

rections. but without success-Yo uth S

engagement Of Reginald Claypool
Vanderbilt, youngest son Of the late
Cornelius Vanderbilt, to Miss Kath-
leon Nelson. second daughter OF Mrs.
Frederic Nelson.
Their engagement is said to be an
open secret. and the delay in making
the announcement is due to the fact
that the young millionaire, although
of age and in possession of the for
tune of $12,o00,000 left him by his
father, is still a student at Yale. He
will be graduated this spring, and it
is expected that the formal engage
ment will soon follow.

dent:
Americans living in Manila are sub
jected to eXtortion by Spaniards and
Filipinos in the matter of house rent
and other expenses, the American
having to pay just double the prices
asked of anybody else. Recently an
American lady, knowing such scale
of prices existed in the city markets,
took her native servant along to make
a few purchases, which was done, ma
tive prices being paid. When the
stallkeeper at the market learned that
the purchased goods were for an
American she attacked the lady and,
Selling the basket which contained the
purchased articles, consisting of vege
tables and fruit. she emptled its con-
tents into the street, threatening to
thrash the American and her servant
if they attempted to repeat such q
trick upon her.

How Trade Is Hammered.

An example of the way in which
foreign trade is hampered by the va
riety of weights and measures in
vogue in different countries is given
by the United States consul at Am
sterdam. A firm in Holland received
a cable offer from New York for 1000
barrels of potatoes. This, of course,
is the usual measure for the sale of
this comestible in North America.
The message, however, vas a conun-
drum for the Dutcn iirm. In the first
place. there was question as to
how many pounds went to a barrel,
and in the next the Dutch pound diff
fers from the American weight. The
cable was the eventual resource. but
a whole day was lost before the an
swer could be wired The American
consul points out that had the offer
been made in kilogrammes every bust
ness man in the conn. ercial world
would have instantly understood the
offer.-London Daily Financial Times.

the general appearance that the least
observing at once noticed the difference
In their opening announcements the
Rorabaugh store promised Wichita and
her trading population a store to be
proud Of" furthermore that they would
carry a complete line Of the very best
merchandise otbainable through their ex
cellent buying facilities.
From the start it has been the policy Of
this house to rigidly adhere to the one
price system now il vogue in their stores,
in fact in most all progressive stores, to
treat one and all. rich and poor. alike
with the same pleasant cOurtesies.
That this house has lived up to its
agreements is about proved by the enor-
nous trade it now controIs-well has it
proven that it is the store that has the
goods" which is their slogan.
At present Rorabaushs employ close to
fifty salespeople. Each Of the several
departments is manned by people well
experienced in their particular lines.

To give the reader fair idea of the
