1T RAINED SILVER DOLLARS
Shower OF 1,0OG in the Street When
Bag Burst.

Cincinnati Dispatch to New York Sun.
Considerable excitement and much
scrambling was occasioned in front
of the west door of the Federal build
ing wien a sack containing l,OOO
silver dollars, being carried from an
Adams Express wagon for deposit in
the United States subtreasury, burst.
The expressman had just reached
he cen. re of the sidewalk in front OF
the entrance to tle building when the
sack gave way. Within two seconds
there was such crowd as to alm2st
block traffic On Walnut s.ree;, and
the presence Of several traffic officers
was necessary to permit the express
company's employees and others press
ed into service to gather up the coins
and deposit them back in the express
wagon.
A count of the coins following the
accident revealed the less Of but one
silver dollar. The missing coin is
said to have rolled behind a motor
cycle belonging to one of the post
office messengers and was picked up
by a little newsboy, who escaped
through the crowd.
THE silver coin was shipped here
by a Southern bank. The express
company made good the missing coin
and the full amount sent was deposit
ed with Cashier Barrett of the local
sub reasury a short time later.

We have repeatedly, in these dis

New York Sun.

New York Sun.
Cleopatra's Needle, which stands on
knoll in Central park between the
Metropolitan Museum CT Art and the
reservoir, is receiving a new treat
ment for one of its periodic attacks
OF spring fever. AS the result, so the
scientists say, OF erosion due to eli
matte conditions, the hieroglyphics
threatened recently to become as
illegible as they are untranslatable by
most persons.
The new treatment is being given
by DR.. William Kuckro, chemist Of
the Metropolitan museum. DR.. Kuckro
believes that the method, which ne

lumbia university, discovered, is GER

The shaft was brought to New York
from Egypt in 1881 and during the
first 21 years Of its residence here
more than half a ton scaled off. The
Obelisk Waterproofng company treat
ed the shaft in 1885, Wien more han
three barrels of chips were picked off.
Since then the needle has done no

he learned that o.her doctors had

Spartanburg, May 2O.-Word has
been received in Spartanburg that the
last obstruction in the Sandy Ridge
tunnel, connec ing the east with the
Elkhorn extension 'of the Carolina,
Clinchfeld & Ohio railway, was re-
moved last night when the ridge OF
rock midway in the tunnel was blown
away. The work o. excavating tle
5000 foot tunnel was started abou;
TWO years ago and it had to be bored
through almost solid rock.
The Sandy Ridge tunnel is 5000
feet long and is 1900 feet under the
mountain. Day and nigh, shifts have
been working on it for over two years
and al average of 125 cars of rocks a

And stepped quadrilles sedately.

Needs Dictionary

T am q cripple, a shut-in and have been for seven years. My only means of killing time is reading, and I feel greatly the need of a dictionary which cannot afford to buy. 1 have small school dictionary, but it is of practical ly no use to me-what I need is one of the large size used by college stu dents. Is there not among the readers of your column some one who has com pleted his or her college course and who is possessed of a dictionary for which he or she has no further use and who would send it to me? l would be willing to have the giver cut the back from the book to insure it's not being sold at secondhand store.
 HI "
 There is nothing that I can add to this request that can make readers feel how great is the need of our shut-in. Seven years is a long time to be shut in, and a dictionary is a small favor to ask. Thousands of students have graduated during the past months Is there not such book as he desires lying idle on some book shelf which can be forwarded to him, after writing to me for name and address?
