"These millions will sweat them
selves considerably in the hold Of the
ship" said a mint official as he super
intended the slowing of an export Of
gold.
Gold sweats," he resumed, "and it
tweats particularly hard at sea. When
this gold reaches the other side 1t will
be a little lighter than 1t is now. If an
inexperienced hand should weigh 1t
over there he would say that some OF
II had been stolen. 1t won't be handled
IN Europe by the inexperienced though,
1t will be handled by men who will
know just what allowance to make for
sweat.
Gold sweat-the phrase has an at
tractive sound, eh? If you and could
sneak down into this ships hold each
day OF the coming voyage, If we could
gather up the sweat from the gold be-
fore 1t evaporated and was lost, would
that be stealing?
"Well, anyway, gold does not sweat
visibly. Its sweat is impalpable, and
you can't collect 1t. Attrition is the
name given TO 1t by the scientists"

wive, Must Work In japan.

As an example Of the humble atti-
tude of the Japanese wife Mrs. Hugh
Fraser relates this incident: "A mid
die aged man on the upper floor was
suffering terribly from heat, and his
little wife seemed greatly distressed
about him. All the screens had been
opened but 1t was breathless day,
and no breeze came TO ring the little
glass bells on the hanging fern wreath
on the veranda. The man sat with
his head in his hands groaning, while
madam, knecling on the mats behind
him, famed his back and from time
to time rubbed him down with Il blue
towel, an expression of the deepest re-
spcct and sympathy on her face. When
he seemed Il little better she busted
herself with preparing tea, which he
drank eagerly and of course made him
self frightfully hot again, when she
went back patiently to her tanning and
rubbing"

ROCkfFElLER'S
INCOME cut DOWN

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-To the
stockholders of the Standard Oil COM
pany checks were mailed today for
amounts representing a dividend Of
Z per cent on their holdings. This
is the last quarterly dividend for
1904. 1t makes a total dividend for
the year of $36 share, as compared
with s44 last year and $45 in 1902.
Despite this cut in their income it
is not probable that the fortunate
stockholders of the greatest trust
on earth" will be pinched for Christ
mas money. John D. Rockefeller,
who Is credited with the possession
of 100000 shares, receives this year
from his oil investment only $14,400,-
900, as compared with $17,600,000 last
year. The decrease in his income Of
s3,200,000 will be partly, If not
wholly, made up by Mr.. Rockefeller
by the increase in his dividends on

companies that are largely owned by

Dispatches from Salt Lake say that
Walter Wilmot Is in the Mormon
town trying to frame up a new Utah
Montana league with Salt Lake, Og-
den, Butte, Helena, Great Falls and
Billings or Missoula for the six club
circuit.
There was a time when those Mon
tana towns, pushed auong by Honest
John McCloskey, could make money.
But it's hardly likely that Wilmot is
big enough to carry the load to the
bank.
Walter says he hears Spokane is
irving to break into the coast league
and that Spokane Is too far away
anyhow and he wouldn't play with
the nasty old thing. . Walters talk
would be good If 1t wasn't for the
remembrance of that cooperative
deal by which the Butte team was
held together last season after he had
expended all of w. A. Clark's street
car fares.
But neither Walter nor others of
the p. N L. need worry about playing
in the coast towns again soon. The
coast league membership will be de-
cided today or tomorrow In the coast
meeting in Frisco. If 1t should
happen that Spokane Is given the
pass there will be plenty of opportu-
mites for the admission of the club
to other leagues without taking
contract to play at Missoula or Great
Falls.
The Empire State alleys team has
been selected to contest in the city
league games which begin tomorrow
night. The players will be Allen
