There is a thrifty man in England
who makes his living out of pond.
The water is about 13 acres in extent
and close to a village street. For sew
eral years he has worked it for profit
with good results, the crops being
three in number-reeds. fish and wa
ter fowl. The fish are chiefly eels and
pike. which are taken during the close
season for duck. The latter are caught
alive by means of traps and are sold to
people who want to stock ornamental
waters. For these there seems to be a
keen demand a prices ranging from s.
a dozen for the humble water hen TO as
much as SIS for pair of scaups or
golden eve. From a list Of the takes
it August it appears that the wild
fowl taken are mallard, teal, shovelers,
tufted duck, gadwall, coots, moor hen,
water rail and dabchick.-Chisago

T. II, Watson, 915 Fifth Street s, Is

I q just stop cuttin meat there, pard,
and hole. up your hands while we see
what you We got about the place."
y. II. Watson, meat dealer AT 9l5
Fifth street S, looked up from his work
at 10 CLOCK last night to find two long
six.shooters pointed at, his head and
two boyish-looking young men lingering
the triggers nervously. Watson thought
at first that some one was playing a
practical joke on him and he smiled
and resumed his work
55t"We mean business, said the elder
of the two; so put 'em up quick. -
Taking no chances, Watson complied
and tried to scratch the ceiling. The
tall man opened the cash register and
began 4scooping out the contents while
the shorter one kept the dealer covered.
At Watson g request he left SIS : in
change SO Watson could do business
until closing time. In the proprietor Is
pocket was more than $100 which the
robbers forget to ask about.
They, obtained about $40 in all and
then backed out of the door and ran
toward Eighth avenue. Both men wore
handkerchiefs over their faces and ap
peared to be about 25 years old. They
were nervous during the whole affair
and the police think they are novices.

DENY:
NJ Favre-Peret, who investigated this
industry in the New England states some
years ago, stated that the average produc-
ton Of 10000 workmen in Switzerland was
forty watches each per annum. While IN
America the average was $50 fine watches
for each man employed.
BY the aid of special machines In these
watch factories one man can make 200
fine screws per day, some Of which are
so small that more than 100000 are re-
quired to weigh pound: One Of the An
est pieces made Is "pallet-arbor" or
pivot bolt, which for a small-sized watch
has q thread Of $50 to the inch, weighs
100000 of a pound, undergoes twenty
five operations and costs but ~ cents.
Measurements are gagged to $4,000
Of an inch.
+ The balance wheel, after being ma
chined, weighs only grains, and when
fitted with 10 gold screws weighs ~
grains; there are 80 separate operations
upon balance wheel, 66 of them being
drilling, threading and countersinking
holes; the drills revolve at a speed Of
1900 turns minute. and one operator
can drill upward Of 1900 holes for the

RACE OF THE SPENDTHRIFT.
ErQm the. Pittahurp Disnatch:

The death at Monte Carlo of the
marquis OF Anglesey ends career of
spectacular extravaganza. For six
years this young sprig of nobility ran
through over $1,000,000 a year. finally
bankrupting himself, despite his
princely income, and dying besieged by
creditors. Much is heard nowadays OF
the costly revels of a certain class in
this country, of fortunes spent for an
evenings entertainment, of lavish
wastefulness in decorations and ia
vors, Of thousands spent in the mere
staging of private entertainments.
There may be q moral in this end Of
the extravagant marquis for those
Americans who are attempting to fol-
low his footsteps. The race Of the
sDendthrift is soon run.

such there be. and in making any ar
engagements for rendering assistance in

should be full meeting of the national
