employed almost exclusively by Chi namen. Its drawback Is that the eagle or double eagle thus treated Is notice ably light.
 A process less elaborate, though somewhat similar, has been applied to silver dollars and half dollars for mak- ing what are known to sporting men of certain kind as double-headers- that is to say, coins which are either heads on both sides or tails on both sides. Such pieces are produced by splitting coins and joining the ob- verse Cor reverse) of one skillfully to the obverse Cor reverse) of another. They are used most commonly for cheating strangers in bar rooms in the matching game. Their manufacture, however, has been declared illegal, un- der the law which forbids the making of coins of original designs.
 A number of years ago, 1t will be remembered, the treasury issued a nickel five cent piece with a big V on it. The nint1ng of the coin was stop the idea of gliding it and passing it off as a $5 gold piece. It was an easy matter, the only apparatus required being a small tank, containing a cya- hide of potash solution, few feet Of copper wire and a little battery. Even the battery. indeed, could be dispensed with, if there was an electric light current available. The process was simply one of plating, the nickel be- ing attached to one end of the wire, and a piece of gold to the other. Both ends were immersed in the. solution, and the current did the rest
 A similar process Is sometimes eTn- p1oyed for sweating gold coins, the result being the removal of thin coat of gold from the entire surface. In this way seventy-cents' worth of the precious metal may be taken from ro{o Trif oIf ife pearance to any perceptible extent though leaving it rather suspiciously bright.
 A century or more ago the clipping of coins was carried very exten- sive1y in Europe. Gold pieces which stance were common then, and passed current readily enough. But statu- tory restrictions in these later days have rendered the old methods obso- lete. Visibly Gnutilated pieces will no longer pass as money, and so crimi- processes for reducing the bullion value of metal currency without all Ser1ng it's appearance.
 The discoveries of chemistry are of great service to counterfeiters and ''sweaters" Comparatively few false days without an electro-plating of gold or silver which renders them much more deceptive
 But the highest refinement of this sort of scheme is that of suspending in the cyanide tank a gold piece at one end of the wire and a base-meta1 ooun terfeit at the other, a coating of yellow metal being thus transferred from the good coin to the bad one The bad coin acquires the appearance of gold piece, while the gold coin Is still negotiable at it's face value or course. this may be practdced with many pieces simultaneously. Unfor- trnateiy, operations of the kind in-s draw the attention of the au- thorities before long, and the proprie- tor of the outfit finds himself in jail for an extended term

WOMEN LEAD THE
 PATTERSON RIOTERS
Girl Workers Are Badly Beaten
 Shots Fired by Detectives

Paterson, April 18.-F'rom sunrise yesterday to late last night police pa tro1 wagons dashed through the streets of this city in answer to many calls to put down rioting in the silk mill strike. One man is dying. shot that while standing on his stoop he was shot by a private detective enl- ployed by mill owner.
 Some three hundred Italian fani- lies and several American families are in such desperate straits that the pro posal to send away the strikers chill dren, as was done in the Lawrence strike, was discussed.
 Three young women were arrested for picketing at 1 o'clock yesterday morning. and from then on there was constant stream of prisoners pour ing into police headquarters.
 Miss Lora Green, whose father is a mill manager, was beaten badly by an Italian woman, who was arrested, and Mrs. Samuel Kaufman. a mill work CT, was another who was hurt.
 Big crowds of strikers were walking up and down River street in front of the Weidman plant at o'clock. They were quiet and. well behaved for the most part and made no attempt to stop the police patrol when it thun- dered through them on it's way to a riot at Totowa, on the outskirts of In0 town, where there naQ been stone throwing.
 Two private detectives from a New ark agency were leaning against the fence in front of the mill and, ac- cording to the witness, said som neth1ng to. one of the passing strikers that made him wheel and go up to them. There was a wordy war for a moment and then, according to a witness, Dwyer and Collerton, the detectives, backed up against the fence and drew their revolvers. As the crowd ran the detectives fired.
 Anthony Cappa, who had been sit ting on his front stoop across the street, was shot in the back as he ran for his door. The shots brought out twenty five detectives who were wait ing behind the fence and also brought angry strikers buzztng around in great force.
 Stones flew at the punched detec- t1ves, who bent their heads and ran into the crowd, using their clubs fiber ally. Then for ten minutes they were fighting all upon and down River street. The detectives had the best of 1t with their short heavy clubs and more than fifty strikers were nursing cracked heads last night
 There was a half hearted attempt on the part of the strikers to keep back the police when two patrol wag- ons arrived, but the fight had been taken out of them by that time. Twenty-seve of the strikers were ar rested. One of them, Celestine Vel lanie, went to the Paterson Hospital with a fractured skull and 1t was found in the station house that Harry Rosene, another prisoner. had a brok- en arm
 When the police heard the stories of witnesses they arrested Dwyer and Conerton. They are held to await deve1opments in the case of Cappa-

SAVED FROM Ruin
Undermining Of Winchester Cath
edral Stopped by Cement.
For Many Years the Historic Building
Has Been Cracking, Bullying and
Settling, Threatening to Col
lapse Completely.

London.-After a period Of eight
centuries, Winchester cathedral now
rests on solid and immovable foun-
dation, saved from threatened ruin.
Almost every day in the last few years
the movements of diver in regllla-
ton dress have been watched with GU
rious interest as he entered or emerg-
ed from the water beneath the founda-
lions of the cathedral. He was at
work helping to save from ruin one of
England's noblest historic buildings,
and the successful issue of the under
taking has been celebrated by a
thanksgiving service in the cathedral.
For several years the dean and chap
ter Of Winchester had been watching
ominous signs, such as cracks, bulg-
lngs and settlements, sure harbingers
of a collapse OF the cathedral. From
the interior daylight could be seen
through the cracks; the latter grew
ever wider and wider. The walls on
the south side and the Norman tran
septs. unequaled for their majestic
simplicity, were riven in all directions
The massive masonry of the Norman
builders had from the beginning
proved too ponderous' for the watery.
compressible soil which forms the
foundation.
The first hole dug into the founda-
tons revealed the cause of the whole
trouble-water-and acting on expert
advice, holes were dug in sections
through the top soil and chalk and far
through the peat. Then it was the
work Of the diver in his usual diving
dress to enter the hole. remove further
layers of peat 30 as to allow the water
to rise into the cavity, and then to lay
flooring Of cement to prevent the wa
ter from sinking back into the gravel.
After the imprisoned water had been
removed by pumping the cavity was
