CONSUMPTION OF JEWELRY.
What Becomes of Good Watches and Other Articles of Value is Some
 thing of Mystery.

A periodical devoted to the jewe1ry trade tries to account for the continued sale of certain lines of merchandise. As cheap plated stuff is thrown away as soon as the coating wears off, one can understand why such articles disap- pear. Rings, pins, and other objects of real value, as we'll as jewelry, may be lost, of course, but they don't wear out. They last alifetime. Owing to change in style, possibly they may be laid aside, but this does not happen often.
 Perhaps the most puzzling phase of the question is the demand for watches and watch movements. This is encour- aged by the fact that a really good time keeper in a nickel case can be bought for $5 or $10, yet the number of watches sold increases much faster than the pop ulation. Where do all these go? So durable are the old watches that thou sands which have been in service for nearly a lifetime may be seen still in use. A Pittsburg dealer said the other day: "The railroad man is about as fair an example as you can find. While his case is only an ordinary one his watch move ment is usually good, and in many ln- stances his children earn their own watch before he is in a position to pass it to the heir. The majority of watches are kept the same way, and what be- comes of them is more than the average dealer can tell"

FLOUR AND THE TEETH.
Finer the Flour, Poorer the Breads Worse the Teeth and Better
 the Dentists.

A valuable letter from a correspond ent drew attention to an important and admitted cause of the national degen- eration of physique which we have striven to emphasize in these columns, says the London Chronicle. The roller mill has indubitably diminished the dietetic value of our bread. The entire wheat grain is of value; the husk (which is valuable intestinal stimulant), the brown exterior, and the white central core Except for certain invalids, white bread is an indefensible absurdity Bet ter is brown bread, consisting of all but the husk, and best is whole meal bread, assuming such to be obtainable. The deficiency of salts in white bread is unquestionably related to the deteri- oration-also familiar to our readers in the national teeth. We may illtls- trate this by an argument from Sir Thomas Lauder Brunton. Why. has America the cleverest dentists?" An swer: Because she has the best four mill makers" The better the mill is, the finer the flour, the poorer the bread, the worse the teeth, and the better the den- tists. Perfectly simple.

A VALUABLE CARPET.
One from Room i'm San FranciscO Mint Yields S9,6OO in Cola
 When Burned. E

One of the most valuable carpets in the country was burned the other day. When it was put down, in the adjuster's room, at the San Francisco mint, six years ago, it cost $500 When it was burned it yielded $9,600 in gold dust. In the adjuster's room the blanks from which gold pieces are made, are filed to exactly the required size. The filings are carefully swept up every night, but the finer particles sink into the carpet, which is burned at intervals to recover 3he gold it contains, says Washington report.
 The annual cleanup of the we'll at the San Francisco mint, which is. the most interesting feature of the intricate sys- tenn by which the loss of gold in par ticles so small that they cannot be seen, except with the aid of a strong micro scope, is reduced to the very minimum, soon will be made. All of the rain water that falls on the roof of the mint is caught in a large we'll and all lowed to settle thoroughly before the we'll is partly emptied in readiness for the next rain. The rains clean the roof of the invisible atoms of gold and silver, which are carried off in the smoke from the furnaces in the melting and refining rooms. The annual cleanup of the sedi- ment in the bottom of the we'll yields from $500 to $1,0oo in gold and silver. The burning in aeretort of the clothes of the workmen, the ashes from the fur naces, the floors of the rooms in which the gold is handled, and other odds and ends, largely swell the annual revenue from these little known sources. Every thing on which the finest gold dust can settle is burned once year or at longer intervals.

NO CAUSE FOR DISTURBANCE.
Loss of an Overcoat i'm a Place Where Whole Suits Were Lost Was
 Nothing Strange.

A Chicago judge, who is a great stickler for decorum in court. also likes his little joke now and then. The Washington Post says that on one oc- casion there was considerable noise in the court, and much moving about on the part of the spectators.
 His honor stopped the proceedings and directed an officer to rap for or der. Still the disturbance went on. and the judge finally singled out one man as the cause of much of the disorder. Flying him severely. he said: Ai
 "This is a court, sir. You do not seem to realize that it is 8 place where order must be maintained. The ofd- cer has repeatedly rapped for order. and you have paid no attention. have a great mind to fine you for contempt of court, for you are interfering with the case under consideration.
 The man, who was confused and frightened, blurted out that he had lost his overcoat in the courtroom, and was only trying to find it. The judges face took on look of sternness and amazement.
 Lost your overcoat!" said he. All this fuss about the loss of an over- coat! Why, men come in here every day and lose suits without making as much fuss as you are making!"

THE WOUNDED DUELIsT.
Tale of Dr. Lorenz and a French Ra4s tient on the Field of
 Honor. 2

At the recent congress of physicians in New Orleans story, about pr. LOTT eng went the rounds.
 Dr. Lorenz, some years ago, was summoned suddenly to the beside of: Frenchman who had been wounded in duel.
 Come immediately and bring a plenty of surgical appliances, said the summoner, flor you will find your pa~: tient in serious situation"
 Accordingly the physician and his as- sistant loaded into their carriage a great quantity of bandages, and iodo-s form gauge and absorbent cotton, to- gether with probes of every size and shape, anaesthetics and splints. They were equipped to dress the wounds of. small army, and great, therefore, was their disgust upon reaching the Frenchman'si house to find that nOth- ing ailed fimtbut mere sword scratch in the forearm.
 Dr. Lorenz, with a alsmile, sent his as sistant for some warm water. and waited for it's arrival to dress the tiny wound. The Frenchman, grooming fear- fully, said to him:
 "Is my arm hurt serious. sir?"
 "Very serious, indeed replied the physician. .1I'm afraid, if my assist ant doesn't hurry, it will heal of itself before he gets back ''

IRISH CRICKETERs COMING.
Sir T. 0. O'Brien Organizing aTeam to
 Visit This Country in the Fall.

London, Aug 10.-Sir T. c. O'Brien, the well known Irish cricketer, who some years ago made name for him. self as a vigorous batsman while play ing for MiddleseX, has accepted the invitation of the Philadelphia cricket CTS now here to take a team to the United States next month. While few details have as yet been arranged, the following schedule has been submitted, and, if it can be arranged, will meet with the approval of tbe visiting team:
 September IS, 19, 21.-Vs the Phila- deIpphia eleven, now in England, at Philadelphia
 September p, 23.-Vs All Philadel- phia, at Philadelphia.
 September %, 30, 31.--Vs All New York, at Hoboken or Staten Island.
 October 1, 2, 4.-Vs the Philadelphia Colts, at Philadelphia.
 October s, 9, 11.-Vs All Canada, at Toronto. f-. -.@
 Sir T. c. O'Brien's. team will prob- ably be an exclusively Irish eleven and be known as the Gentlemen of Ire land. The sister isle boasts an unus- ual array of cricketing talent this year, and has played several matches in Eng land against county teams with signal success.
 The Marylebone team for Australia, which could not accept the invitation to play in the United States, has not yet been made up. Considerable ob- jection has arisen to the selection of F. F. Warner as captain. A. c. Mac laren refuses to play under him, and there appears to be much ill-feeling aroused by the general management of the team that fears are expressed that the project will fall through.

GRIFFITH CHALLENGES MGRA "
New York American Manager After the
 New York Nationals.

New York American Manager After the
 New York Nationals.
 Manager Griffith has challenged the New York Nationals to a series Of seven games, to be played just after the two pennant fights close This would mean playing the games the first part of October. Grifith's plan is to play three games at the Polo grounds, three on the plateau, and the place of the seventh, if a seventh is necessary, to be decided by the toss of a coin. There IS plenty of precedent for such games. The two Philadelphia teams have met, as have the two St Louis teams, and the two Chicago teams have a post-sea- son series arranged.
 Any old terms will suit Griffith, win ner take all if the other side prefers There is little doubt that McGraw and his players would be quite ready to pick up the gauge thrown down by the hill men if J. T. Brush, the president of the National league club, agrees to the sporty proposition.
 There is an eagerneSs on the part of the New York public to see these games" said Griffith last night "A number of persons have spoken to me about the matter, asking if the two teams were to meet, and when. Nc. Graw and his men are playing good ball, and we are anxious to get at them However, we would play them just the same if they were last and we first or they first and we last. As to the divis- ion of the gate money anything that suits them will suit us. think they will accept the challenge. Certainly there is every reason why the games should be played, and not one why they should not As to our chances of winning, we will let the gan es themselves decide that"

Bob Hayes was the third batter and reached first on a nice single. This put three men on bases with none out and the Merrinaacs were all smiles when something happend that turned their joy quickly to chagrin. Reid was the fourth man up and he gave the ball fierce rap. The ball went like shot straight on line for the pitcher The pitcher just had time to put up his hands and the ball struck plump in his mitt and stuck there. The runners were all maj lS for what they surely thought would be home, when the pitcher shot the ball to first, retiring Hayes, and the first baseman threw to second and re- tired ISlavin, making a neat triple play.
 Then the Pastimes came to the bat and made final effort to win out or tie the score. They got three men on bases. when wild throw was made and two men scored. The next batter made a hit and another man scored, making the score 10 to 8, and there it remained to the finish

Cleveland, Aug 10.-Walter Egan of Exmoor, Chicago, and a Harvard jun for, Saturday defeated his cousin, E. Chandler Egan, in the final for the western amateur championship in a thirty-seven hole match that, for ex- citement and brilliant playing from start to finish has had no equal at western tournaments. Chandler .Egan, the former champion, went into Sat urday's battle the favorite, and Wal ter Egan had a hard time defeating him. At the end of the first round of eighteen holes Chandler Egan was up, and there were few who believed Walter could beat him. But defeat him he did, in an extra-hole contest.

The Hen Is a Cosmopolitan.

The hen embraces nearly all the world, and it's range would be as great as that of the dog if it extended farther north and south but it is found north of the arctic circle only in Norway and Sweden, and is yet lack ing in the southern part of South America, except where the Scotch have settled in Patagonia. Travellers throughout the most of Africa and h. dia and in many little-known parts of the world can usually add chicken to their food resources without difficulty; but there are some large islands, like New Guinea, where the hen is not found, and more than half of Aus tralia is destitute of this animal.
