boy. three years old. and wearing a

trying to sell laces. While the mother
had gone to a house in the block the
child remained on the sidewalk for
awhile and then walked to the man
hole and peered into it. Accidentally
he fell In. The child screamed loudly
for help, but being six feet under tho
ground, no one heard his cries
Just at this time an old milIman
passed With him was a great st. Ber-
nard dog. The dog heard the cries OF
the child, and for second could not
locate them The child cried again.
and this time the dog plunged into tho
well and seized the child's clothing Ia
Its mouth. The dog held the little boy
above the water until both dog and

COUNTERFEIT MONEY.
AMOUNT IN CIRCULATION IN
UNITED STATES DECREASING.
Due to Good Work of the Secret Serv-
ice Department of the Govern
ment Foreigners the
Chief Offenders.

The annual report OF the operations
Of the secret service division for the
fiscal year ending June 30 was made
to Secretary of the Treasury Shaw re-
Gently by Chief Wilkie. Among other
things, reference is made to an effort
on the part of the division to secure
an estimate of the amount of counter
felt money in circulation in the United
States.
Thousands of letters of inquiry were
sent TO banks In every city OF impor-
tance in the country. More than 1000
Of the national banks reported that
they had not seen any counterfeit
money during the period covered by
the inquiry, January | TO December 81,
1903 Fifteen hundred banks reported
decrease in the amount they had re-
ceived. as compared with previous
years. and 100 reported an increase
In order to be certain that the estl-
mates should be over rather than un-
der the actual facts, the figures were
doubled, both as to coin and notes.
Even with this liberal allowance, the
LSuISS lHulchlSu dDOut three uOilai
In counterfeit coin for each 100000 OF
gold and slved in circulation, and O
little less tnan one dollar In counter
felt notes for each 100000 Of paper
circulation.
There were 25 new counterfeits de-
scribed In the official circulars issued
by the division during the year, but
only a few OF these notes fell in what
is termed the deceptive or dangerous
class. The makers and passers Of Is
OF the 25 counterfeit issues were ar
rested. and In nearly every case the
plant was captured ana destroyed
The total arrests for the year were
sl9, and of the prisoners 306 were born
In the United States. The largest
foreign contributor was Italy. In the
number Of arrests New York led with

SHOWS SAVED BY MUSIC.
Regulations of Comedy Singers Are
Often Made by the Aid of a
Good Orchestra.

Many poor show Is saved from fail
ure because Of good orchestra. This,
says the Chicago Tribune, is what a
prominent theatrical manager OF the
city says The worse a show Is the
more necessary Is 1t that the men who
sit before the stage and assist the per-
forfners to get through the piece should
be Erst-class musicians. Few chorus
girls have any idea of what music
and harmony really Is and hardly any
Of them have good voices, according to
this man.
In order that musical piece may go
through satisfactorily the orchestra
must be Of character strong enough
to play the score properly and to swing
the chorus when 1t begins to wander
from the right key. II 1t were not for
the orchestra with its music covering
up the defects Of the chorus many of
the musical comedy ensembles would
be wonderful to listen to.
"The best orchestras In this city are
to be found In the small theaters de-
voted to the musical comedy and bur-
lesque," says this man. "Thls is ex-
tremely necessary II we had lot
Of cheap men to play for us here the
public would get to think that the mu-
steal comedy was horrible thing in
decd. 1t is next TO Impossible TO get
a full chorus wherein each member Is
an accomplished singer. Consequently
there arc times when the efforts OF the
musicians in the pit come as bless
Ing not only to the stage manager, who
Is tearing his hair behind the scenes
but also to the public out In front.
When the chorus get particularly bad
the orchestra bears down strong, and
before long the chorus Is swung back
into the proper key. II the orchestra
was no goc-. 1t would follow the cho-
rus when It gets Off the track and SO
queer the whole show"
