Possesses a Valuable Relic.

Byron Clark of Burlington has in his
possession one of the iron crosses of
Prussia which were presented to soldiers
during the Napoleonic wars for valor
in service OF their king. King Frederick
William founded this order in 1913 and
it was revived in 1870 by King William.
To be presented with one of these crosses
was to the Prussian soldier what the
receipt OF the Victoria cross would be to
the British soldier. The cross in itself
is in Maltese shape and about an inch
and half across. On one side of one
arm OF the cross is crown with the
initials f. w, below which areoak leaves
and the date 1918. On the reverse side
is another crown with the date 1870.
Mr.. Clark procured the cross from a
relic vender in New York city. He has
also pair of Scottish ciaymours used
at the battle of Waterloo. These are
iron shields which were used to protect
the hand while in conflict. Mr.. Clark
purchased them from man who had
procured them from an old French SOL
der.

WHAT IT COSTS TO CIOrHE A WOMAN.


"Sixty-6ve dollars year can clothe
woman properly" says a report
given out by Edward Atkinson, the
Boston statistician.
Mr.. Atkinson's report was prepared
by three women expert stenographers
whom he appointed as commission
of inquiry. He thus tell the story:
II called upon three women of great
intelligence, who are expert stenogra-
piers, 10 make list of all the gar
mentsand accessories required to dress
to cover period of four years, so as
to include the wear ofouter garments
for four years and the others for
less term. These lists were prepared
and averaged.
II then sent single copy to each
of the heads of four great department
stores in Boston, requesting that prices
be attached to each item. These were
returned, computed and averaged.
"Then a consultation of the three
women followed. In going over the
lists we made some reduction in the
large cost of hats which it is their hab-
its to trim for themselves, they buy
ing the material also some access
sories, such as belts, buckles, gloves,
etc., to reasonable average.
"On then dividing the result of the
four returns by four, to reduce it to
one year, it proved that SOS per an
mum would pay the cost"
The following is list of the things
required Eight hats, trimmed by
the wearer eight pairs of shoes Cox
fords) eight pairs of high shoes
two outer garments for summer
two outer garments for winter six
teen cotton shirt-waists twenty-four
pairs stockings; two kimonos four
cotton shirtwaist suits ten under
shirts; forty-eight handerchiefs I;
eight corset covers; neckwear eight
nightgowns; two umbrellas eight
pairs cotton gloves; six winter un-
dervests four woolen shirtwaists
two silk shirtwaists six summer un-
dervests eight pairs of kid gloves
eight pairs of rubbers ; sixteen pairs
of cotton drawers one muff belts,
buckles, etc.
He then tells the solution of the
food and other problems.
Upon thorough investigation of
the present prices in retail shops, he
showed that an adult woman may be
nourished completely with food Of an
appetizing quality at a cost for food
material of not exceeding $I.23 a week
for each person, or SOS a year, to
which may be added for luxuries SIS
a year making maximum of $50.
These are all approximate estimates
and lead to the conclusion that FIVE
persons may combine, or a group
Of three, at higher cost for shelter
providing themselves with shelter,
food, clothing and other accessories
at the standard set up, at a cost from
$500 minimum to about 5000 maxi
mum a wear.

BUYING THE TRIBUNE.

The man who after Mr.. Greeley's
defeat for the Presidency prevented
him from resuming editorial direction
of the Tribune was Samuel Sinclair,
its publisher and the great editors
longtime partner. When Sinclair
told Mr.. Greeley that the Tribune
was in serious financial straits as a re-
suit of its course in the campaign,
that it would be necessary for him to
retire as editor, and that the paper
must be sold-the old man went mad
and died. He was hardly in his
grave before the Tribune was sold by
Sinclair to syndicate of leading Re-
publicans headed by William Orton.
who bought controlling interest for
$50, 900, with the idea of having
Schuyler Colfax, then Vice-Presi-
dent, resign his Office and become its
editor. The night before the change
was to go into effect Mr.. Reid sent
for John R. G. Hassard and William
F. G. Shanks, respectively chief edi-
torial writer and city editor of the
paper, to come to his room for a final
parting as all supposed. When they
went init is Shanks who tells the
story-Reid handed Hassard a check
for $4o,oo made payable to Reid,
for his four shares of stock, and said !:
"Boys, that represents my connec-
ton with the Tribune. 1t has been
sold to syndicate. Schuyler Colfax
is to be the editor. Mr.. Orton, who
represents the purchasers, desires you,
Hassard, to take charge until Mr..
Colfax arrives. 'You,' turning to
Shanks, 'can turn over the city de-
partment to your chief assistant"
But hardly had Mr.. Reid ceased
speaking when a telegram was brought
him. 1t was from the Washington
correspondent of the Tribune, and
stated that the Credit Mobiller inves-
tigating committee then sitting had
traced the bribes of Oakes Ames to
the pockets of Schuyler Colfax. This
news, all three realized, meant that
Colfax could never be editor of the
Tribune, but only Mr.. Reid saw on
the instant the splendid opportunity
chance had thrown in his way. He
went at once to the house of William
Walter Phelps, called the latter from
his bed, and laid the situation before
him. Phelps heard his caller through,
and then, without hesitation, agreed
to put up all the money that was
necessary to save the Tribune.
Orton's dilemma on the following
day was sorry one. The syndicate
which he headed had been based on
the employment of Colfax as editor,
and now that that was impossible and
uncertain, Orton sought out Jay Gould
and told him his troubles. "Don't
bother about your syndicate" said
Gould. II will take the whole of the
stock. And so when Reid and Phelps
on the same day offered to buy the
syndicate interest Orton was compell-
ed to refer them to Gould. They
found the latter willing to part with
his purchase, and Phelps furnishing
what money was necessary, the bar
gain was closed without delay.-Rw-
