That is a parcel hunter" said a
floor walker in one of the big stores
He nodded his head toward woman
wedging her way along the crowded
aisle. scanning the floor assduously as
she went
They are an odd class" he ex-
planned. With the advent of the gift
buying season, which has already set
in. come small army of people who
make an annual practice of searching
the big stores and streets for parcels
and money that are dropped by shop
pers Pedestrians also have a hobby
of looking for things, and motormen
have long followed the practice in the
business districts.
You would hardly believe it. but
eight out of every hundred women who
go shopping lose something in the
way of money or valuables before they
get home. The average of carelessness
in men is about one-haf of one per
cent-presumably on account of the
advantages of numerous pockets and
the inherent masculine aversion to
ccrrying things in their hands. When
you consider the thousands that invade
the big stores each day you can realize
that hundreds of articles are lost.
Some one finds them.
"A number OF the parcels turn up at
the lost and found counters OF the
various stores, but the vast majority
of things dropped are never account
ed for. The things picked up range
from kid glove to well-filled
pockCtbook. Oftentimes costly pack
ages of silks and furs are found.
The motorman is also often reward
ed by profitable finds. He knows by
experience that women getting on and
OFF cars with packages in their hands
are more or less agitated. That's when
they drop things. At this season of
the year, every day at the bar barns,
you can hear the motormen talk of
their finds as they come in from their
trips"
A talk with motorman at the
Ridye Avenue car barn revealed the
truth OF The floor walkers assertion
He said; There are even more things
found in the street than on the side
walk. Money and parcels dropped in
the street are likely to remain undis-
turbed longer than if dropped on the
sidewalk. So the motormen has the
field practically to himself. The big

FENIAN FLAG A RELIC.
Buffalo Possesses Banner That Was Carried Irish Troops During
the Invasion Of Canada.
~~~~~~
~~~~~~

A faded green silk flag. with one
corner torn into ribbons. has been
placed in the collection of the Buffalo
Historical society. 1t is relic of the
Fenian invaders who crossed into Can
ada from Buffalo on the night of May
81. 1860, and who had to come back
few days later, after having thrown
Canada into spasm Of terror. This
flag went through what is known as
the battle of Ridgeway, which village
is now more familiar to Buffalonians
as the town back of Crystal Beach.
The flag was formerly presented to
the Historical society by James McEl-
roy, in whose family it had been for
long time, and by D. E. Mahoney. The
exercises were held in the society's
lecture room. About 200 persons were
present. President Andrew Langdon,
in response to a few remarks made
BY Mr. Mahoney, said he was reminded
of Al incident that came under his
observation while in the Office of the
president OF a large New York bank.
1T was during a political campaign,
and one of the other officers coming
into the room hung up the portrait OF
one Of the candidates. he said. THE
president Immediately said. Take that
down. We have no politics here. It's
the same way with us. We accept
relies whether We approve of them or
not, and we accept this flag for its
historical interest

Buffalonians who took part in the in

Some men are so stupid that they

A woman can seldom stop to look

into the mountain TO show for their
summers labor. Unfortunately th:c
was all they did have to show for il:
for no trace of the mineral they
sought had been found, and the.-
means had played out.
On the day of the storm they cor
cluded to abandon the search, ard
they had taken the tools from the hole
and were packing their camp outfit
when the storm came up. The fall Of
the rain was accompanied by bril-
liant electrical display and loud claps
of thunder. Suddenly there came a
most terrific clap of thunder, accom-
panying a binding flash of lightning,
and it seemed to the watching men as
though the mountain was being torn
asunder. A moment later another
equally severe crash followed and a
third clap came little later. The
lightning bolts seemed to be directed
at the shaft they had so recently
abandoned. and when the storm had
cleared and they investigated they
saw that the wall of the shaft had
been scanned and shattered by the
electrical bolts. They descended to
ascertain the results of the bolts and
found the wall of the shaft opposite
to the lateral tunnels had been riycn
and several tons of rock had been
scaled off and had fallen to the bottom
OF the shaft. but. what was of more
interest and Importance to the pros
pectors. the vein of ore which they
had so persistently sought had been
laid bare.
