GilLed LAces,

A method has recently been invented
of depositing a metal coating electrical
" on laces and other fine fabrics. The
process Is still kept secret, but it
turns out the most surprising results,
in effect changing the tissues exposed
into the daintiest fabrics Of gold, silver
or bronze. The utility Of the metallized
laces covers various fields. They serve
for table ornamentation and for center
pieces; architects use them In mural
decorations: in applications on uphol-
stery and for the hangings Of panels In
salons, boudoirs and rich dining halls.
The makers Of Ane furniture incrust
wood with them In the manufacture Of
screens and on surfaces Of any kind,
plain or curved. They are also used
with striking effect In ecclesiastical
vestmcnts and in ball and evening
dresses. Rich as they are in appear
ance and unparalleled In delicacy and
beauty they are very cheap. Anybody
can afford them. and the extent Of their
use in costuming bids fair to be very
great. France discovered and Is de-
veloping the industry.

Knife Carrying I'm Cuba.

A party writing to the Post recently
mentions the knife carrying habit 50
much In vogue in Cuba and asks that
we continue our campaign against it.
We will continue the campaign against
this vice until the proper notice has
been taken Of 1t, though this be years
from now. All of the lower classes.
with hardly an exception, carry MUIR
derous knives. If they cannot afford
to buy a knife from a store they f1nd
piece Of steel and sharpen 1t into q
deadly weapon and carry It wrapped
in piece Of paper about their clothes,
ready to use on the slightest occasion.
The result Of this is many murders,
which would not occur under other cir
cumstances. If the police were in
structed to keep on the watch for knife
carriers it would be but a very short
time until the habit would become IN
popular.-Havana Post.

The Pearl In the Oyster

The supreme court at Hamburg, Ger
many, has decided who owns the pearl
In the oyster
A young woman who was eating oys-
ters in restaurant found pearl worth
$3.50 Naturally she claimed it. A
young man who had paid for the young
woman's oysters was gallant enough to
support her claim. FINDINGS keep
ings" seems to be rule peculiar to no
country. But the hard hearted restau-
rant keeper wanted the pearl too So
he sued to recover it. II the chicken
bones belonged to him, why not the
oyster shells and this particular pearl?
When the case came to trial the court
held that the disputed pearl belonged
neither to the young woman who found
1t nor to the restaurant keeper who
sold the oysters. BY right it went to
the young man who paid for the eys-
ters. AS he had already declared that
It belonged to his fair companion, he
was doubtless logical enough to give
1t to her and she grateful enough to
take it and him. Romance has its re-
quirements as we'll as law.-New York

Small Trains on English Railways.

A gentleman was standing on the

Californian who was making his first
European trip and was full of curiosi
ty. He looked far down from the up

they might be. He was told that it was

ado people, travel in those things
hereT the big Californian said. why,
when was a boy used to play with
trains like that"
The comparison was not inapt. AS
late as the year 1900 the average
freight train load in England was but
dfty tons-that is to say, the average
train load was only equal to the capaci-
ty Of one of our modern freight cars.
There has been some improvement
since then, and there is now a marked
tendency toward heavier. equipment,
but 1t all seems like toy equipment
when compared with our own heavy
trains. -Scribner's Magazine.

THE JAPANESE RED CROSS.
Probably the Finest Org anizAtion of
the Kind In the World.

The Red Cross society of Japan Is
probably, all things considered. the
finest organization of the kind in the
world. 1t has been growing and i'm
proving constantly since its small ORR
gin in 1877 and now has nearly mil
! lion members. all excellent relief or
ganiZation and large funds. Its meth
DDS are radically different from any
volunteer aid we have yet seen In
America, for its fundamental assump-
ton is that the army knows it3 own
business and Is competent to attend to
It. Its general attitude instead Of i'm.
plying, I'VE know the medical depart
melt will break down in the field, and
therefore we insist on going to the
front and into the camps to supply its
defects" indicates this The people Of
japan appreciate so highly the work
of the medical department that they
ask the privilege of assisting it."
On the contrary, in the Spanish
American war we had multiplicity
Of small societies, meaning well. but
working blindly and Mt cross purposes,
accomplishing good Mt an altogether
disproportionate cost Of money and Ia
Dor and not infrequently interfering
with and handicapping the work Of the
responsible medical officers.
But in the Japanese-Russian war
there is a single great. well prepared
organization, the ally and assistant Of

where it Is instructed that 1t will be Of
use and accomplishing vast good at a
minimum cost.

characteristic Of the nation, for every
war, campaign and great disaster since
its foundation has been to Its officers a
lesson by which they have rrofited. In
the present war they are always on the
alert to discover their defects, to learn
how to remedy them and to gain new
Ideas for Improvement. 1t was as one
Of many means to attain these ends

the minister Of public instruction has

Not a Faded bud For the Poor. Who

In reading the life Of Nero we mar
vel to hear that be had the floor Of his
banquet hail solidly carpeted with cut
flowers 50 that their fragrance might
be pleasantly diffused as the guests
| crushed them under foot. But flowers
are cheap In Italy, and Nero never paid
SO apiece for American Beauty roses,
which. as a matter of fact have been
bought at that price by New York deal
ers to be sold again ut an advance.
And what would Nero have thought Of
that Boston Spectator who Is said to
have paid $4,000 for Il lot OF carna-
tions! Fancy coming on such fact In
the MISUNDERSTANDING 600 sesterces for some
pnks!
And yet, poor as are the poor in our

Is not so much the waste of money
spent on flowers that they would de-
plore rs the waste Of the flowers them

THE BANK OF ENGLAND.
Why It's officials Are Worried by the
Underground Railway.

Officials Of the Bank of England are
said to be worried for the safety of the
boards of wealth stored in their strong
boxes The bank station Of the new
underground railway in London is
close to the vaults OF the worlds great
est institution of finance. At a recent
meeting of the bank directors 1t was
person might set off a quantity Of eK.
plosives in the bank station, wreckins
the foundations Of the stately build
ings above and sending the bars of
bullion and the streams Of gold coin
leaking out on to the station PLATFORM
The feasibility of this scheme has been
conceded by the bank governor. 1t is
figured, however, that the tube as
the underground railway is called, Is
q little too deep at this point. To
the conspirators would have to drive a
shaft nearly n hundred feet, and then
they would face a mass Of concrete,
thick masonry and steel. At one time
the Bank of England was the object
Of Il conspiracy. From church tower
close by the bank was bombarded. Aft
erward the authorities had the church
and It's threatening tower destroyed.
Officials Of the bank do not like the
tunneling going on in the clay beneath
their foundations. The constant pump
ing of water has affected even the
solidity Of the clay, and from this cause
one of the wells which Is within the
three acres comprised within the
banks precincts has dried up.
Those three acres are valued at about
$5,OOO,OOO each, and the treasures
within them are guarded in fitting
fashion. On either side Of the main
entrance to the bank are two small
glass houses. In one reposes stately
beadie In the other are two wide
awake detectives. Other detectives are
in and out Of the rooms, but always
unobtrusively. At night the police
force Is a heavy one. Every evening a
compact body Of men commanded by a
lieutenant, including two sergeants,
two drummers. a bugler and thirty
privates, marches from wellington
barracks to the bank. They are in full
marching order, and before they enter
the technical limits of 1.-The city" exer-
else that privilege Of the guards of fix
ing bayonets. They are on duty for

Officials of the bank provide moddr-
ate refreshments for these guards. In
the guardroom, which is of regulation
pattern. are the usual shelf and blan.

iier's intermittent doing when on du-
ty of this kind. The officer has suit

and a bathroom. There is hidden away
