Machine To Weigh Coins.

TIN Interesting machine has been in-
stalled In the United States mints
y y for the automatic weighing of coins
Of all denominations. Last year the gov
eminent coined nearly 1900. 900 pieces of
gold and $4,000. 900 pieces Of silver. For
merly each piece was weighed by hand.
Sitting at long tables. women. with bal
ance In front Of them. counted the
money. 1t was their duty to weigh each
piece. Pieces that were too heavy were
reduced with file and those that were
too light were thrown aside to be placed
again In the melting pot. Gold pieces
were weighed twice, once in blank and
once after coinage
The new weighing machines have each
10 balances, which are set according to
the required weight Of the coin which is
being tested. They then work automat-
ically, each machine taking 10 coins at
a time. The movement Of the beams Of
the scale determines into which of sew
eral shutes the weighted coin shall drop.
If 1t is too light the scale beam moves
up and the coin is dropped into the
lights" If 1t is too heavy the coin
falls into the "heavies" II it just bal
ances the coin drops among those that
are Of the proper weight. The work, 60
ing on in this manner, Is very rapid and
accurate.
The minis allow good bit Of ''toler-
ance" in coins. That is to say, the gold
double-eagle standard weight is SIG grains,
but 1t can weigh either half grain over
that or half grain less, and yet be al
lowed to pass with the coins of perfect
weight

LINEN IN FAVOR.

- HOULD a woman wear wool, cotton
Nor linen next to her skin? This is a
~uuestion that has been brought up many
times, and 1t seems finally decided that
linen best answers the purpose Many
physicians are in favor Of either cotton
or linen. The reason is that wool alb.
serbs Precipitation and retains 1t. 1t IS
absorbed with difaculty at first, and sur
rendered to the surrounding air with
even more difficulty. Cotton. on the
other hand, asks only an opportunity to
dry, and then does It as rapidly as pos
sible. The best plan in cool weather 10
to wear cotton or linen, II one can afford
it, next to the skin, with woolleu outer
clothing. The wool excludes moisture
and cold, while the cotton absorbs the
Precipitation rapidly, and dries even
more quickly. This is done without chill
Ing the body.

the features Of a pretty home, and
1t Is quite easy for the housewife to
make the room the prettiest. TO do
so does not require the expenditure Of
a large amount Of money, either Its locn-

facilities for lighting and for its prox-
unity to the kitchen. There should he

or two large windows on one side. To
take away the dark look from a room
with M eastern exposure has been the
desire Of many housekeeper, especially
where the room Is dining-room. In
cities many Of these rooms require arti-
fetal lighting during the entire day. But
the effect Of sunlight can be given in n
degree by the proper wall papers and fur
n1shings. Warm yellow two-toned
papers should be selected for the walls,

Another late improvement to the gov
eminent lnints is the automatic, self-feed.
Ing coining presses. The blank coins were
formerly fed by hand. The new attach
ment consists Of a hopper, at the bottom
Of which is a copper disk perforated with
holes the size Of the coins which are be-
ing stamped. When the machine is in
motion this disk revolves Slowly and the
blanks drop through into a stacking tube,
whence they are carried by little clutches
and placed under the stamp. Under the
new plan one man feeds seven or eight
presses with the blank coins. and when
the hopper OF 4 machine Is filled 1t runs
Itself with human intelligence and dis
erection until all the blanks are consumed
disgorged again as finished money.
MEMORY OF PIGEONS.
TN Germany recently tests were made
to discover how long carrier pigeon
could retain the ''honing" instinct.
Seventy-two birds in the German mill.
tary service were taken from Mayence to
Brunswick, distance Of 40 miles, and
kept in strict captivity for one month.
Then they were liberated. All of them
arrived at their former home within four
and one-half hours.
1t has been found almost impossible
to destroy the "homing" instinct of the
carrier pigeons. Various other tests have
bee- made in Germany end this country
which have shown that the birds can 70.
member their former home even for sir
months. and return to /: in n straight
line after they have been released from
captivity.

PECULIAR USES
FOR AMERICAN FLAG

The American & has played an
important part in political campaigns
of the past and has been subject at
times to unique decorations accord
ing to a bulletin Just made public by
the National Museum.
Two interesting souvenirs of the
early political ages have been recent
ly presented to the museum and are
now placed with the exhibitional col
lections. The first of these Is an
American flag with seventeen stripes,
alternating red and white, with blue
field of thirteen stars. Twelve of
these are ranged around larger one
which is placed in the center. on
the white stripes Immediately beneath
the blue field is written the old legend
"The Hero of Tippecanoe" in black
letters. This is a relic of the William
Henry Harrison campaign.
The second relic is also flag. 1t
Is more elaborate and carries. four
additional stars, one in each corner
making seventeen in all. The center
of the flag. however, bears the IN
sertion of sailor clad in the costume
of that period and mailing to the mas

PORTUGUESE VICE CONSUL
is GREATLY PERPLENED

What is his exact official status Is
a question which just now is causing
Senior Feruya, Portuguese vice con-
sui at New York, more concern than
that other ever present question,
which is obsessing everybody mere
lust now, as to who's loony now.
With a continuation of a republican
form of government Feruya admits
there is little prospect of his contin-
uing at his post. Whatever chance he
may have had to stay has been dissi-
pated by his Characterization of the
republicans who brought about the
change at Lisbon as anarchists AS
an ardent royalist he says it Is doubt
full IL he would care to serve under
the new regime whose continuance IN
power can at most, he predicts, be
short lived. In this belief he intends
sitting tightly on the lid at the con-
sulate, and until relieved by the new
government will administer the du-
ties Of his office as If nothing had oc-
Cured at home.

SUM WAS LARGE BECAUSE
OF LEGISLATIVE MEASURES
W. c. f. Pruett Completes Tabula-
ton of Election Day Expenses
Many Judges and Clerks Paid for
Four Full Days Work.

1t costs the people of Oregon some
thing for the privileges they enjoy
under the initiative and referendum.
Because of the large number of meas
ures which were on the ballot at the
recent November election it cost Uma-
tilla county just about twice as much
in wages to clerks and judges as 1t
did before the people had the power
of direct legislation. This because of
the amount of time consumed In
counting the votes on the 80 different
measures.
Deputy Clerk w. C. E. Pruitt has

of the many warrants issued to the
election clerks and judges. There
were 24O of these drawn and they ag-
gregated s2463.75. The warrants var
led all the way from 60 cents to $50
but s12 was the most drawn by any
one man for services rendered, the
remainder of the larger warrants be
ing for travelling expenses. The CLERKS
and judges Of Pendleton, Pilot Rock

In all there were over 700 Warrant

THIRD MAN ARRESTED

that city and Is being held until
Agent O'Brien of the local o. r. &

to the disposition to be made of him.
1t is probable, however, that he will
be brought over from La Grande to-
night and be given a preliminary
hearing some time tomorrow. He
was formerly employed by the rail-

| Jail, is ready to go to the peniten-
tiary, according to Chier of Police
Gurdane. He confessed his part in
the robbery to the chief last night and
told him the story of his life. From
this confession it seems that he ha:
