 One of the oldest customs among miners is that known as parting" When a batch of miners get to work on new seam or cutting for the first time the first miner to strike the coal with his pick leaves a bit of the clothes ne Is wearing at the place where he strikes the first blow. A miner always tears 2 bit out of his coat or trousers for this purpose, and in mining districts where this custom prevails you may see many wearers of clogs going about with several torn patches in their clothes, telling of the numier of times they have fulfilled the custom of part
 ing in the mine. It is considered un- lucky to have such rents in clothes mended.
 Every miner, on taking on work al mine, receives a cardboard leaf, con taining the regulations prevailing at that particular mine, which he must scrupulously observe.

Penrose's Sense of Humor

millioaire member of the House from Pennsylvania gave a very elab- crate dinner and asked Senator Penrose to announce to the assembled guests that carriages had been ordered to take every one home after dinner.
 Penrose made the announcement with his usual calm solemnity and added, as though this. too, were a suggestion from the host, For those who are unable to use carriages, ambulances will be sum- moned
 What made this appear particularly funny was that apparently Penrose was merely making a statement he thought the circumstances warranted. He knew some of the more reckless would drink too much and that in all probability they would be more in need of ambulances than carriages by the time they were ready to go home.

Her One Wish

From the New York Tribune.
 Mrs Gus" Ruhlin the suffra gist, said in a recent address in Brooklyn:
 Another type of woman that opposes us Is the type that marries for money. This is a poor type, and an unhappy one.
 T know young and beautiful woman who married an elderly banker for his money I met her down town shopping the other day. She looked wretched.
 ," Aren't you happy l asked. No. I'm not said she. She frowned and added. George told me if married him my every wish would be gratified.'
 "'Well isn't it2' said f. Look at your pearls, your motor cars, your sables? Isn't your every wish gratihed?'
 No, said she. I wish hadn't mar ried.'"

Armenian's Daring Act.

Niagara Falls, N. Y.-One of the
most daring rescues in the history OF
Niagara Falls was effected by Aran
Kevorkian, an Armenian, who waded
out into the rapids a short distance
have the falls and pulled to shore with
pike pole the unconscious form of
Henry ]. Smith, so years old, of Buff
falo. Kevorkian was assisted by Da-
vid Gordon and Park Constable Thorn
as Harrington, who formed a human
chain anchoring the Armenian to the
shore and enabling him to resist the
current, which was especially strong
on account of the high water. Smith
was walking along the narrow path
skirting the river about 800 feet above
the falls, when he missed his footing
and fell into the stream. He soon be-
came exhausted in his efforts to reach
shore. and was floating with his head
under water when caught by Kevor
khan with his pole, less than 100 feet
above the brink. Smith was soon re-
stored to consciousness, apparently
none the worse for his experience.
