POOR MRS. HARTMAN

The late Mir Hartman, according to recent authoritative estimates of his personal fortune, did not leave this world under circumstances of such comparative indigency as first pessi- mistic reports would have led us sc believe. Had he possessed pockets iu his shroud, they would needs have been capacious.
 MT Hartman it is now reliably stated by next friend of his willow and principal heir, had gathered and saved three hundred millions of dol lars.

ment having proven that the molten zinc

dry stones, the zinc was melted and
poured between the stones, forming
metallic joints an eighth of an inch
thick. The substitution for mortar in
creased the cost about S. 40 for each

do not weaken stones having a strength
of about ID, 600 pounds per square inch,.
but are 10 or IS per cent weaker than
stones having strength between 1000

BRAVE QUEEN VERSUS KING

The eX-queen of Naples, the Emperor
Francis Joseph's sister-in-law, is the
only woman who has received the Rus
sian Cross of st. George, which is only
conferred for acts of conspicuous
bravery under fire; and the ex-queen
received it in recognition of the courage
she displayed in connection with the
magnificent defense of Gaeta against
the armies of Garibaldi and King Vic
tor Emmanuel.
One day during the siege a bomb fell
into the room where King Francis and
Queen Sophia were dining. King
Francis (sad to relate) retreated to the
cellar, trembling with fright. Queen
Sophia rose from the table and walked
to a looking glass that hung on the
wall, and noticing that her hair was
whitened by the plaster dust raised by
the bursting bomb, said quite calmly:
What a pity it is that powder is no
longer fashionable? Don't l look quite
an eighteenth century queen with my
whitened hair? / must keep it so while
the garrison is being reviewed"
Queen Sophia conducted the entire
defense of Gaeta, which was so mag
nificent that the garrison were per
mitted to march out with all the honors
of war. Every day she visited the
ramparts and encouraged officers and
men. She sighted the guns, and her
example shamed those who were dis
posed to surrender into an appearance
of courage.

NERVE OE WOMAN

"If I had my wife's head and nerve
I'd own half of Market street in less
than five years." said the man. ut is
the way she manages the clothes prop
osition that arouses me to wonder
and admiration. Here is an example
of her thrift:
Early in February she bought a
broadcloth dress, spring style, which,
with the extra charge for alterations,
cost $55. Well, after she got the suit
home she did not like it, The store
objected to taking it back at first, but
her persuasive tongue won them over,
and after deducting $5 for the alter
alton they refunded the money.
Last May, when nosing around for
bargains, she saw that same suit on
sale for $35. My wife, it seems, has
such q peculiar figure that the suit,
after being made to fit her would not
fit anybody else, so there was that $50
garment, and cheap at the price, going
for almost third off She, of course,
snatched up the bargain. No more
fitting or making over was necessary,
so even when counting in her So for
alterations, she saved $15 on the deal.
