TransvaaI Gold.

The ambitions of the Transvaa1 mine
owners and the possibilities Of their
mines do not halt at mere restoration
to the results shown in 1899, says
the New York Sun. The owners wish,
very naturally, to double their output.
To do that would increase the present
annual world supply of available gold
about. one-third. With an abundant
supply of cheap labor, easily obtain
able from China, these seems no rea-
son to doubt that this could be done.
The influx of so considerable an An
nual increase could not fail to have
some influence on the market price
of commodities whose value Is meas
ured in gold. Bankers and national
treasures would feel it's effects. The
present annual supply may be fairly
adequate for the worlds require
ments. The result of so very marked
an increase in that supply presents a
topic for interesting consideration.

Test of Quality.

Miss Nina Gage, trained nurse,
and Leroy Leach, the famous rifle
shot, were married in New Orleans
the other day, after a peculiarly -
mantle courtshlp.
They had known each other only a
few weeks, but under circumstances
that enabled them to know each 9th
err well. for he was sick and she
nursed him.
THE man who can win woman's
love when he is sick and at his worst
must be worthy of her. And the wom-
an who can allay a sick mans pain
and lead his narrowed mind from his
little selfishnesses and petulencies
out into the sunshine of love is wor-
thy of the best man ever born.
To some unthinking ones this court
ship may seem commonplace one
There is no dash about it. 1t is not
a brilliant scene set in the glamour of
adventure or rivalry and attended by
the glitter of ballroom or by clank
of sword or by fervid speech that
sounds high to heaven.

How They Learn Spanish.

Tourists in Nagasaki, Japan, are
often surprised to hear the sampan-
men and the rickshaw men in the
street shout Spanish words to white
passers-by; as, "hey, amigo" (hey.
friend), or 'hombre," a common en-
clamation of attention, meaning
man." In the stores the statesmen
also use similar terms. as mo sabe,"
meaning don't know" etc.
The explanation is simple. The Japs
themselves do not know that they are
using Spanish words; they believe
them English slang. They have
learned them from American. soldiers
homeward bound from the Philippines
The Yankee boys, used to employing
Spanish phrases in speaking to Fill.
pinos, instinctively do the same with
the Japs, forgetting that their Ian
guage is different.

Afqhan Justice.

In a native irregular force raised
by an Afghan chieftan, the following
amusing incident took place, says the
Regiment. A man was brought before
the chief for stealing shirt, and
this is how. the case proceeded:
Chief Ito prisoner)-You are charg-
ed with stealing shirt.
First Witness-You honor, 1t was
my shirt
Second Witness-Your honor, saw
him steal the shirt.
Result-Prisoner ten days for steal
ing the shirt; first witness ten days
for not looking after the shirt bet
ter, and second witness ten days for
not minding his own business.

Fast Time Around the Horn,

I. w. Lyon of Englewood, N. j.,
writes of a voyage he made to San
Francisco in 1851 on the famous clip
per ship Flying Cloud. The ship was
commanded by Captain ]. Perkins
Greasy of Marblehead, Mass, and the
voyage was made in eighty-nine days
and twenty-three hours. Afterward
the same captain made the trip IN
eighty-nine days and thirteen hours,
which time has never been beaten.
Captain Greasy worked his crew for
all they were worth. One squally day
he set and took in studding sails
fourteen times. They saw land but
once on the first voyage and that was
Cape Horn, which they passed at
distance of three miles.

When Onions Are OdorIess.

How many times has every fiat
dweller entered his home only to cry
out in disgust because the odor of
the onion or the turnip or something
else has permeated the entire six or
seven rooms?
Lets stop having such things for
dinner" he suggests to his wife.
"Why it's notifying to invite friend
to dine when one knows this sort of
atmosphere is going to knock him
down as soon as he enters the door,"
AS matter of fact, there is no need
for excluding the onion or the other
offending eatables. The simplest way
in the world to solve the difficulty is
this: Have the cook put into the
cooking vessel with your onions Just
piece of stale bread about as big
as your fist Somehow or other the
bread absorbs the odors, and you
don't know onions are on your menu
until you sit down at the table.

A New Ornament.

The piquet is the name given to the
spruce little bunch of flowers or small
fruit which is somewhat stifily tied
up, to stand sentinel on the little
spring walking hats. The piquet is
usually placed to the left of front;
but as there are left-handed and right
handed people, so there are women or
girls to whom hat trimmings are most
becoming when poised at the right
side than on the left. In such case
the piquet of lady's slippers, stocks
or foxgloves may be mentioned to
the right of the front, besides the
crown. The piquet stands erect and
is supposed to be something of an al
grette or pompon made Of flowers,
instead of feathers.

WAY OF RUSSIAN OFFICIALS.
Remarkably Proficient in the Science
of "Graftinq."

A story which illustrates the
methods of Russian officials is told by
q traveller recently returned from the
Far East. In an important town in
Siberia there is solitary member OF
the Anglo-Saxon race who has estab
lished a successful business, despite
the restrictions imposed upon him.
Periodically, however, he is reminded
that he is there only on sufferance by
the receipt of letter form the all
powerful governor, which reads some
thing like this: Dear Sir: 1t is
proposed to raise a monument to the
beloved memory of the late emperor,
and knowing how deeply interested
you are in all that affects the peo-
pie among whom you live, have ven.
tured to put down your name for
thousand rubles. Please remit the
amount as early as possible" At one
time the monument is to an emperor,
another time to national poet, or
historian or a general Needless to
say, the proposals never get beyond
the committee stage-the governor
constituting the committee. The de.
mands are simply a polite form of
blackmail, of which the merchant is
well aware, but they must be met,
otherwise he would not be allowed to
remain in the place.-Leslie's Weekly.

MAIDS WHO USE MoNocLEs,
Chamberlain Said to be Responsible
for a New London Fad,


Yet another complication has been
added to the trials of the nervous
society man. Inspection from dow
ager duchess through pair of lorg-
nettes has been hitherto the most de-
pressing ordeal an "at home" could
provide. but now there is the maid
with the monocle.
A Bond street tradesman told rep.
resentative yesterday that hundreds
OF yosg society girls are buying
these fascinating articles Of attire.
In some cases they are being worn
by those with some weakness of the
eyes who would formerly have sought
help from pince-nez; but for the most
part the fair purchasers have no such
excuse. They regard the monocles as
an added charm.
A number of ingenious devices have
been added to the monocle in order to
enable its new admirers to wear 1t
easily. A wide gold mount is one of
the best of these, as it prevents the
long lashes of a girls eyes from push
ing the glass and thus causing 1t to
fall.
The sympathy of the ladies of this
country for Garibaldi inclined them to
wear the blouse. The ever-recurring
interest in Napoleon has been the
cause of innumerable changes in dress
and is held by experts in sartorial
matters to be the influence that has
recently sent every girl into a three
cornered hat.
tary's monocle. Perhaps Admiral To
go may be the subject of delicate
tribute of this kind shortly.-London

HOW DEBTS MAY BE PAID.
Limits Set on Those Who Would
Worry a Creditor.

Ordinarily when a debtor appears
before a longtime creditor in Chi
cagO there is no questioning of the
United States coin in which the debt
Is to be paid, but the wide possibili-
ties possessed by an arbitrary cred
itor in STIMULATING just what coins
and in what amounts he will receive
payment are enough almost to dis
courage borrowing.
You can't force a mean creditor to
take more than rs cents worth OF
nickels or rs cents worth of copper
cents. If you could get as much as
S. worth of old silver three-cent
pieces of another generation you
could unload S. worth on him, jAst
as he would have to take S. wsrth
of silver five-cent pieces and SIS worth
of the obsolete 2O-cent pieces which
made so much trouble in the late '70's.
But you can pay. out $40 in silver
dimes and silver quarters and silver
half dollars; the trade dollars-of
which there are a few still coming
