Remakinq PLAYING Cards.

Berlin has started new industry.
Old, stained playing cards, all those
slightly soiled which have only been
once or twice in use, are collected
from hotels, clubs and hundred 9th.
er establishments in Germany, Aus
tria, Hungary, Switzerland and are
cleaned and made as fresh as new.
They are carefully rubbed with ben
zine on both sides, and then, after
drying, placed in presses where they
are rendered perfectly fiat again.
They are then sprinkled over with
powdered whitehead and placed in a
warm press, where they receive the
finish and shine lost in the fingers of
the players. They then find their
way into another press, where the
edges are carefully cut. Before being
put on the market they undergo, each
card separately, a careful revision to
see that they are all 'as good as
new"

Men Who Draw LARGE Salaries.

S. G. T. Dodd, who has resigned as
general solicitor of the Standard Oil
company, probably drew the largest
salary Of any individual in the Unit
ed States. Mr.. Dodd has. for years
drawn an annual salary of $250000.
The only other salary drawn by law
yer which can compare with this is
that of Francis Lynde Stetson, who
receives an annual retainer of $780,
900 from j. P. Morgan & Co. This
retainer is given simply for the pur-
pose of allowing Mr. Morgan to have
first call upon the services of Mr.
Stetson. Whenever he is consulted
he receives an extra fee. Sir Clin-
ton Dawkins, the head of the London
branch Of ]. P. Morgan & Co., re-
ceives an annual salary of $3.50, 900
In addition he receives a certain per-
centage Of the profits of the firm,
which during some years have
amounted to a larger sum than his
guaranteed salary.

Second Helen Keller.

Ella M. Hopkins of Utica, N. Y.
bids fair to be second Helen Keller.
About eight years ago, she being then
9 years old, she suffered from a severe
attack of yellow fever, and on her re.
covery could neither see, speak nor
hear. She was sent to an institution
for the instruction of the deaf and
dumb and now may be said to see and
hear with her sensitive finger tips.
She also speaks freely. The principal
of the institution says: with her
mentality and allowing that she will
continue to improve as she has done
In the past, there is no reason to
doubt that she will in time arrive at
as high state of development as
Helen Keller"

LIVES LOST IN WARFARE
Present Conflict in tho East Not I'm
duIv Terrible,

In round figures the casualties on
the Federal side during the whole four
years of the rebellion amounted to
$4,000 killed and 100000 wounded.
This was undoubtedly the bloodiest
war Of modern times, although If Gre
dence could be given to the dubious
reports emanating from Russian and
Japanese sources, the war in the
Orient, only one year old, would seem
to equal it already in losses suffered
and inflicted.
But it is highly probably that when
the truth has been sifted out of the
wild and extravagant estimates, the
number Of dead and wounded in the
Manchurian armies will be materially
reduced. A newspaper story is usu-
ally less conservative than historic
account. The war in the Orient has
in fact been fought in comparatively
humane way. Except in rare instances,
the greatest of care and consideration
have been paid to captives and the
wounded. The medical departments
Of both contending armies are organ
lied, equipped and run according to
modern ideas as tC such things. The
Red Cross corps and hospitals have
been respected and the rules of vivil-
lied war carefully lived up to. Only
on one or two occasions during the as
saults unon Port Arthur has there
been any rumor that quarter was de-
MED or refused.-Kansas City Journal

No Offense to Kill Rabbits Now.

The impression seems to prevail
over various parts OF the county that
1t Is against the law to kill rabbits,
and by re ason OF this or some other
cause, but very few rabbits have been
bought here whereas 1t has been the
general custom for most all mer-
chants to have a supply on hand.
The rabbit Is protected by law only
from September IS to November IS oil
each year, and the object Is more to
protect the game birds than the bun
mics. 1t Is believed that with the
slaughter of the rabbits stopped for
the opening OF the quail season those
who go after rabbits osteuslbly
but cant resist the shot at the birds
that is presented will be prevented
from killing the birds.
The fact of the matter Is that any

with the hours entertainment which
consisted Of profound thought end
