court gathered about the latticed door

Women and New Bank Bills.

A reporter for the Eagle was talk
ing to the cashier of one of the national
banks in this city the other day when he
opened his drawer and laid a bundle
Of bright, new crisp bank bills on the
counter
He explained that they were kept there
&c be paid out to women who came to
the bank to get money. It seemed to be
the idea Of the president of the bank
that the women would like to have new
bills, but the cashier said he did not
think there was much in that idea
He said that experience had shown
him that people always stop TO look at
a bright new bill and nearly all the men
after looking at it would carefully fold
it and place 1t in his pocketbook, but
it was different with the women. They
usually exclaim: "Oh. what a nice new
BILL" and after examining it ninety-fve
women out Of a hundred would wad the
bill up in their hand and destroy the
new features and then cram it into their
pocket-book and the next person who
got it would hardly know that ii was a
new bill
1t was a matter of fact he said. that
the average man likes a new bank bill
and when they get dirty or ragged they
viii invariably by word or action ex-
press their dislike of it. If they did not
say anything they would hold the bill
away from them and examine it sus-
piciously He thought the average man
appreciated a new bank bill more than
the most women.

cubbon,e Mining Experience.

During the early gold excitement about
the Black Hills country, George Cubbor
went there to make his fortune. He told
a reporter for the Eagle some OF his
experiences the other day and from il
the reporter gathered the information
that Mr.. Cubbon enjoys a practical joke
We were working claims on the side
of a mountain" said Mr. CubbOn. and
close to me was an old miner. by the
name of Ccott, who was blind in once
eyee. The boys all called him 'One-eyed
scotty'
"Scotty had a raw Hollander work
ing for him who was the most excitable
man about the powder blasts that l ever
saw. He was as afraid Of powder as
Charlie Lulins is Of horse. You know
that Charlie has always claimed
that a horse is the biggest fool animal
ever created. He says fool horse will
>get scared at a grasshopper and kill
himself by running square into a steam
engine Well, Seotty's Dutchman mag
ined that powder was not mare for any
other purpose than to kill people out in
the mining country.
Just as soon as the signal was given
to touch off the blasts than that Dutch
man would gather the opposite sides
of his hat rim in one hand and start
down the mountain side like a race horse
and he would never stop until the blast
went off and the stones quit rafting in
the tress on the mountain side. He would
have been runnig yet if the powder had
kept up the explosion.
This thing of the Dutchman's running
became terribly amusing to the miners
and each one of them would keep a
little pile Of rocks where he was at work
and when the Dutchman would start
TO run away they would remain dan
gerously close to the blast to throw
stones after the fleeing Dutchman- They
would then get away from the blast and
lie down on the mountain side and laugh.
1t was the most comic sight I ever saw
when that honest Dutchman would run
quarter horse when he was in no
danger.
"One day. I accidentally hit the Dutch
man on the hip with a rock and hurt him
a little. l was awful sorry and then
some of the boys told him that the
miners had been all the time throwing
stones at him and that the rocks that
rained around him were not from the
blast at all. That made him mad and he
went to the camp and refused to work
an other day in the mines and Scotty
lost an honest hand. The boys got
around and tried TO explain that IT vas
all fun and that they really liked him.
but 1t was no so. He went back on the
whole crowd and rot another day would
he ever work with any of that crowd.

Time Has chanqed.

large proportions and a man does not
think long nowadays before having his
life insured and If he does 1t is usually
on account OF the money involved. 1t
was not long ago that it was quite diff

over the insurance business. It seemed
to many that it pcrtended something
awful. Il hurt the business and made
its infancy very hard. In a small crowd
OF lawyers that gathered around the dis

ono OF the attorneys said:
why, remember back in Illinois that

Went along when she was taken TO the
asylum. In the chair car she became
a little restless. and SO Sheriff Simmons
took her back into the smoker. AS they
passed the stove he noticed that her
face became very bright and that she
turned away from the stove when she
passed ii. He looked 10 see what caused
this change ard saw a poker lying there.
After they were seated, he called the
porter and told him TO put the poker
away. Everything went along nice then
for a little while. They had covered
about half the distance TO their destina-
ton, when Mrs. Heimmerman got up
and commenced TO put on her wraps. She
had gone far enough, she thought. When
restrained she made for the poker and
when she saw that it was gone. IL in
creased her madness. She jumped for
the lamp but Mr. Simmons had her pin
nored by the arms. Everybody had made
their exit from the car in short order
and now one by one they COMMENCED TO
come back to see what she was doing.
Mrs. Heimmerman was quiet after this.
She took up with a sort of a tramp and
talked and talked to him as nice as could
be-
When asked If she thought she would
be good If the handouts were removed,
she shook her tied fists ard said she
would show them. The handouts were
left on. II was right after this that the
conductor stood with his back TO ner
