New York, June 23.-Quotations in dry goods are stiI, advancing and prices are being made with the idea of stopping trade on lines which are so far sold ahead that manufacturers are unable to take further orders. The necessity or material curtailment is growing more general and It's is believed that when buyers come into the market generally they will find a stronger market even than that of today and will bid prices up against themselves.

Concerning Things Lost
of Which a Baby Was One

nation I received was directly oppo-
site to the above. When I approached
the manager of the place on the sub
Ject he heaved a large, good natured
sigh and said: For losing things I
must take off my hat to the women.
But let me present you to our cashier;
she knows all about it.
"The cashier of the restaurant said:
Yes; l must admit that some OF
my siSters-I call them sisters because
most OF the women who dine here are
young business women-are woefully
careless about the way they lose their
belongings. Everything that woman
wears or carries, not tied or sewn fast,
has been found in this restaurant at
once time or another. Pocketbooks,
muffs, rings. watches and bracelets.
But they always get them back so
they don't really lose them
But don't you have more women
customers than men?'
oh. no., We have Is per cent more
men,
What do men lose?
Gloves. handkerchiefs-and they
exchange hats
Found in a Theater.
cat a popular theater the storeroom
for lost articles looked like a miniature
department store. Feminine SUCCESS
lions Tor every season and occasion
were carefully catalogued, as If ex-
posed for sale. The manager of the
theater had to admit that women pa
irons are the more forgetful.
But he said. the largest losses
that have come under my observation
have been made by men,
ITO prove his assertion he dug out
OF his files mass of correspondence
relating to the finding of a male pock-
etbook. When the man who lost 1t
was finally located the manager made
the following report:
There was card case found in
the theater on Feb. IA containing $50,
with the name 80. j. Behmyer" and no
address. We wrote thirteen letters,
made three telephone calls, searched
five cities and finally located the man
in Terre Haute, Ind. after forty three
days. The case was returned to him
March % by registered postage.
The loser, who was found through
information received from mercan-
tile agency, was so grateful for the
recovery of his goods that he sent
letter to the theater, in which he said:
1 know 1t is a rule of your house
that no employe shall receive a tip"
Please make an exception in this case

GENIUS IN BEGGING.
Why Work When You Can Secure
Good Money Without 1t.

1t is hard to beat the beggar game in
Italy. A f1eet-footed urchin grabbed a
girl, and. bounding like a chamois over
an intervening short cut, headed us
off at the next turn. He and his maid
en- fell into fox trot by the side of the
carriage.
Look, noble gentleman" he began.
look, beautiful lady! See the little
ragazza-the poor girl-have pity on
her! See, noble signor-you cannot re-
fuse to give her something heart
is too good-you are too generous, too
noble, too handsome, to refuse. Have
pity on her dreadful state, for look
she has one gray eye and one black
one!"
We stopped the carriage. 1t was true.
The maiden had indeed parti- colored
eyes, in addition to which she rejoiced
in a most appalling squint. l gave her
one copper.
Hereupon her escort set UP a howl
at being ignored. t
But why should you have any,
thing?" 1 asked.
You ought to give me two coppers,"
he replied, with a twinkle, for l have
two black eyes, and she has only one"
I was vanquished. I gave him his
two coppers. don't believe In beg

FACES OF MEN AND WOMEN.
Are the Former More Likely to Shove,
Defects Than the Latter2

After they had held down q bench
in Washington square for an hour, DUR
ing which time 500 people had passed,
one of them wound up his disconnected
comments with this:
Have you ever noticed how few
women you see with any deformity in
their faces? You may watch the crowd
in any street and every tenth man will
have broken nose, or a disfigured
mouth, or deformed chin, or some mark
which indicates misfortune But
not one woman in fifty is so marked.
You see ugly women. women with
tell-tale lines in their faces, and plenty
of good-looking women, but, as l say.
not one in fifty-I have made the
count frequently and that is the aver
age-has a scar or an abnormal mark
on her face"
81 asked a doctor about it. and his
explanation was that women being out
of doors less than men, are more pro-
tected from accidents. But that Is not
satisfactory if you study the PROPOSE
ton.
"You may stand on the State street
bridge in the rush hour, as l have done.
and take 100 women and then take the
first twenty men afterward that pass
along, men and women whom you know
come and go to work daily and you
will find more men marked in the face
than you will find women. 1 am not
talking about women who go shopping.
but women who work in stores and
shops.
81 used to be night worker. and
went home on the early morning trains
which carry an army of night work
ers of both sexes-the women in SUCH
cases being from the bakeshops and
cafes and places where women are In
danger as much as men. and rarely
did l ever see a woman whose face
was marred by any natural deformity.
or by anything. that would indicate an
accident.
1.-THE only conclusion I ever reached
was that women are more careful OF
their faces than men, but that applies
Only to accidents. How about those
who have been favored from birth?
Why are they. proportionately, more
fortunate than men?"

NAMES FIRST ARTILLERY.
Regiment That Lost Most Heavily in the
War for the Union. :.

Maj Charles j. House. clerk in the
office of the labor commission, and Capt.
Horace H. Shaw, of Portland, have about
completed the history of the First Maine
service in Bangor, Aug. p, 1862.
The history of the First Maine heavy
artillery is of special interest from the
fact that it lost more men than any other
total of AL, as against the second heav-
lest loser, the Eighth New York heavy ar
tillery, with a record of 361.
The loss of the Maine regiment at Pc
stersburg was the heaviest of any regi-
ment in a single action, the number killed
and subsequent deaths from wounds being
242, against 2O7 in the Eighth New York
at Cold Harbor. The Maine loss of 1856
at Spottsylvania was the third heaviest of
any regiment in a single action There
were 1900 men originally enlisted In this
Maine regiment, 219 hailing from Bangor.
The loss to the regiment during the
thirty-six days from May 10 to June ID,

Moneyed Men of the BIaekfeet Tribe
Take Over $4,000 From Bank.

MALTA, Mont, July 25.-The poor
redman Of Montana is not SO much
to be pitied as many Eastern people
seem to imagine. Some of the Indians
are wealthy in their own right and
have horses and cattle by the hundred.
This is particularly true of the Crow
Indians. For the first time in the his
tory Of the state, however, the Black
feet are coming to the front as the pos
SCISSORS of wealth. Several Of them
have small sums, but 1t remains for
One Fish and Dog Eater to pose as the
moneyed men of the tribe, members Of
which are scattered all over this Sec
ton.
When One Fish and Dog Eater, who
are partners in the cattle and horse
business, entered the local bank this
morning they attracted attention, as
until now they had not been regarded
as men with wealth. Advancing to the
cashiers window, each of the redmen
presented his personal check for a
large sum. more than $4,000 In each
case, intending to use the money in
purchasing more stock.
The two men rode up to the Bank Of
Malta on their scraggy ponies. One
Fish stuck his tongue in his cheek
when he signed his name, but he made
a fair signature Notwithstanding. 1t
took Dog Eater several minutes to
master the eight letters Of his name,

James Giles Thinks Only a Big
Powder Mill Explosion Can
Kill Him.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
MISSOULA, Mont, July 25.-James
H. Giles, aged seventy three, who has
been a rancher, merchant, revival
list, sawmill operator. a druggist,
river man and half a dozen other
things, and who bears a charmed life,
has decided that the only way for
him to find death is to go to Idaho. He
says that if he can get employment in
a powder factory there he may posi-
bly, be enabled to depart from this
earth. Accompanied by his aged wife,
Giles has left his old home at Victor,
this state, and has started overland
for Idaho, intending to settle near Mos
COW. With him he took cattle and
sheep. Giles has been close to death
on many occasions and seems to enjoy
1t. His narrative of thrilling and
narrow escapes would fill a big volume.
When he was seventeen years of age
he enlisted in the army. While load
ing a cannon at the second battle OF
Bull Run the piece exploded and 200
pounds of ammunition flew in all di-
rections. Conclusion of the brain fol-
lowed and for long time the man was
insane. For six months he remained
in military hospital, and on being re-
leased was blown up in the explosion
of Mississippi river steamer Then he
re-entered the army, and by the pre-
mature explosion of his revolver lost
part of his right hand.
On several occasions he has been al
most drowned, and once several hun
dred logs passed over him as he lay on
the bottom of the river under break
ing log jam. Once a chimney OIL which
he was working as a brick mason gave
way, precipitating him to the ground,
nearly fifty feet, and breaking several
of his ribs and both legs. When he
recovered he fell from a rapidly NOV
ing train, which laid him up for an,
other six or seven months.
Three years ago Giles was attacked
with a throat disease, which, when he
finally conquered it, left big pouch
in his throat, in which he can secrete
a silver dollar for hours at time with
out inconvenience. He firmly believes
that he is destined to live forever. I'M
less he gets blown up in powder mill

CARDINALS RECEIVE DIPLOMATS.
Portuguese Minister Speaks for Latter
and Cardinal OreeIia Replies.


ROME, July 25.-The most imposing
ceremony today was the reception by
the sacred college in the hall of the
consistory of the whole diplomatic
body. All the diplomats wore gorgeous
uniforms. and the cardinals had on
their magnificent violet robes and were
seated in huge armchairs, according to
their right of precedence.
The Portuguese minister, M. Mar
tins D'Antas. dean of the diplomatic
corps, was at the head Of the body He
advanced and delivered the following
address in French:
THE diplomatic body accredited to
the holy see wish to present to the sa-
cred college their profound coincidence
on the occasion of the sorroWful and
irreparable loss it has sustained and
which puts all Christianity into mourn
ing. The virtue and high wisdom of
the sovereign pontiff, Leo Kill, will
leave a luminous track in the history
of the world. The diplomatic body beg
your eminences to accept their con-
dolences, while we express the hope
that God in His divine wisdom and
great bounty will inspire the sacred
college in choosing a sovereign pontiff
destined to maintain the prestige OF
the church"
Cardinal Oreglia in reply said:
Your excellency, as dean of the
diplomatic body accredited to the holy
see, has nobly interpreted the feeling
of all your colleagues in the sorrowful
circumstances of the death of the ven
Grated pontiff, his holiness Leo Kill,
Of glorious memory. The whole world
Worships with US at his loss. The sa-
cred college, feeling in a special man
ner this terrible circumstance which
has struck the apostolic holy see and
the Catholic world, has highly es-
teemed the condolences received from
the sovereigns and rulers of states and
this new proof of sympathy which the
diplomatic corps has today offered to
US IS profoundly appreciated.
Believe me, Mr.. Ambassador, that
We were extremely grateful to your
eXcellency and to each of your worthy
colleagues for your sincere participa-
ton in our sorrows, while the con-
delence expressed with so much deli
cacy through the intermediary Of your
excellency in the name of the diplo-
matte body are true consolation for our
afflicted hearts. The sacred college is
preparing to exercise the highest
among prerogatives in electing him
who will govern the church as vicar of
Jesus Christ. In such a grave and
solemn moment God will certainly
grant us the special help and grace
necessary to accomplish the heavy
task imposed upon us. With these SEN
timents the sacred college, on the eve
of the conclave, take leave of the diplo-
matte body, renewing to them the ex-
preston of its Warmest gratitude
After this the members of the diplo-
matte body kissed the hands of all the
cardinals, and especially congratulated
Cardinal Oreglia on the sentiments he
had expressed.
