Griffith Gr;st.

The Young folks of the Grange
decided to surprise Alma Lunan
on her birthday. After the young
folks gathered at the home of U.

served by the young ladies and
Mr.. and Mrs. Lunan.
Quite an excitement was raised
on Tuesday night by some of the
boys getting out and throwing
eggs into car. Two cars were
stopped and the boys were spot
ted. Perhaps it will be better
for them to do their talking about
egging people hereafter and de-
stroy their spoiled eggs on their
own premises.
Myrtle Griffith celebrated her
birthday by getting her face
poisoned in some way, but some
neighbors were kind enough to
call in the afternoon and con-
graduate her on her looks and
help her have a good time. Fif-

Myrtle thoroughly enjoyed the
afternoon and evening and ap-
Dreciated very much their kind
thoughts for her.

Two Men Found De1I.

Coroner Burton was notified
Sunday morning that o. P. Dixon
had been found dead in bed at
Golden. Mr.. Dixon had evidently
gone to sleep and died of heart
failure as there was no sign of
any struggle whatever. He was
well known in Golden, having
been expressman there for sew
eral years. The remains were
buried in the Golden cemetery
Tuesday.
Another call was made for Mr..
Burton Tuesday morning to in
vestigate the death of a man
found dead in bed at camp Of
the Denver city water works in
the southeast corner of this
county. The mans name was
given as Patrick Baningon who
had come from New York and
had just started to work at this
camp. He had been drinking
heavily for a couple Of weeks and
it was thought that this was the
cause of his death. The body
was turned over to the under

S. r. c. Dance.

The S. R. C. dance at the Bank
hall Friday night was a success
in every respect. 1t was at first
intended that a part of the crowd
should play cards, but as nearly
all preferred to "trip the light
fantastic" the cards were rele-
gated to obscurity and the entire
evening was spent in dancing.
Delightful refreshments were
served in the banquet room of
the hall and the large crowd pres
ent thoroughly enjoyed them.
About $l5 was cleared by the
club, which was donated to the
Episcopal church.

Our attention has been called
to the fact that several people
have been spraying their fruit
trees while in full bloom. There
is 4 very strict law against this
and it should be observed. Not
only is it against the law but it
Is much better for the fruit to
wait until the petals have fallen
from the bloom and then do the
spraying. The intention of the
law is to protect. the. bee..industry
as the liquid used in spraying
means death to the bee if it
comes in contact with it in the
open bloom.

ECCENTRIC POET.

Queer stories are told of the most unusual methods of work and cap rices of Gerard de Nerval, the French poet. He followed inspira- ton literally, scribbled line upon an omnibus, couplet upon the para pet of Pont Neuf, in taverns, boudoirs and greenrooms. His long, est sustained effort would be ten lines. His manuscript consisted of such strips held together by wafers Once he entered the garden of the Palais Royal leading a lobster on a blue ribbon. His friends remon- strated. "Why," said De Nerval, "why is a lobster worse than a dog or cat or gazelle or lion or any other beast that people have follow them about? I admire lobsters; they have poise, they are serious, they know the secrets of the sea. they don't bark"

HABITS OF THE SEMIN0LES
Indians of Florida Live In Open Houses-Calco Shirt and Derby
 Hat Their Costume.

The Seminole Indians of Florida sit, eat and sleep on platforms raised about three feet from the ground un- der the roofs of their open houses. In each village the houses are so ar ranged as to leave an open space ln the middle of the camp, and in the center of this is a cooking house. Here food is constantly kept on the fire, for there are no hard and fast meal hours. They go about dressed in native costume. The men wear, on ordinary occasions, merely shirt of gayly colored calico. To this they add, whenever they can obtain one, a derby hat and new bandana hand kerchiefs around neck. This is their ordinary dress. On gala occasions they wear turban, made of shawl held together by band of hammered silver, and sport an aigrette or an os- trich feather, beautiful woven bead belts with symbolic designs, leggings and moccasins of buckskin and a gor- geous calico coat. The use of buck skin upper garments has long since been discontinued on account of the heat; the leggings and moccasins have survived, but are no longer worn about the camps, for they would soon become vet and useless. The women are more fully clad than the men. Their costume consists of a shirt and sleeved cape of calico. About their necks they wear enor- nous masses of beads, from the strings of which they often hang sil- yer coins. Many of the women wear brooches or bangles beaten from sil- yer coins by the native smiths. Like most Indians, the Seminoles do not care for gold in any form.

La.s --n.
 in renewing tne found, ions the coinage buAdlng' oi tie o,u ma at 37 and 8 North Seventh street some quaint specimens of old-tlpe building construction, including sev- eral curious vaults, were uncovered. The cellar in which the vaults were located was reached by heavy stone steps, supported by brick or stone arches, a method handed down from mediaeval times. One of the vaults in which bullion was stored consist ed of vault within vault, and was designed, it is said, at the time of the war of 1S12 to conceal materials which could not be readily trans ported to other hiding places. Sev- eral small windows in the cellar were protected by heavy hand-wrought iron bars. These have been preserved and will be added, along with other relics, such as locks and hinges, to the collection in Independence hall. In digging out an old well in the yard a number of copper coins, bear ing the dates 1716 and 1918, were found, as we'll as a quantity of scrap copper from which the coins had been cut. From old papers relating to a lawsuit, found by Frank H. Stewart, president of the company which owns the property, it was as- certained that five buildings were originally included in the old mint, all of them grouped around the coin age building. It is an historic fact that this old structure, which was the last of these buildings to be razed, was the first building of any description erected by authority of the United States congress.-Phila- delphia Record.

CHINESE AND JAPANESE BELLS.

Consul s. L. Gracey, stationed at Foochow, calls attention in the Daily Consular Reports to the soft and smooth tone of the bells in use at temples and monasteries in China and Japan. The quality of the tone is due not only to the use of excel lent material, but also to the ab- sence of iron clappers. The bells are never swung, but are always suspend ed in a fixed frame, and are sounded by striking them on the outer edge with a wooden mallet.
