Word has been received here of the
sudden death in Charleston, w. Va,
of }. Lynn Richardson. Mr.. Richard
son was native of this county. He was
member of the dry goods firm of
Coyle 4 Richardson, of Charleston, and
was 90 years old.

East Indian Traders.

The native Of India Is a keen trader,
none too scrupulous, and does business
on small margin. It is said that he
retails goods so close that his profit Is
made by selling the packing box. Ma
lives become landlords by the purchase
Of piano shipping case. This would
be divided into two compartments by
board. The lower section would be
rented for a few cents a month to q
silversmith; the upper leased to a dhur-
sic or native shirt maker, while on top
a cap merchant displayed his wares.
Incomes are so small that the indi-
yidual who owns hubble bubble" or
water pipe has several rubber tubes
connected with II, and for a "pice,"
one-sixteenth Of cent, allows patrons
to have one puff. I mention these
facts to give a real glimpse of condi-
tons. Despite this, I know this mar
ket Is worthy of our best efforts.-w.

Worlds Oldest Industry,

The pearl fisheries of Ceylon are said
to be the oldest industry in the world.
For over 5000 years the pearl oyster
harvest has been gathered by the ma
tives, who. skilled in diving, have hand
ed down the industry from one genera
ton to the next. Pearl fishing In Cey-
Ion today is somewhat of a speculation.
The greatest care IS taken lest when
the shells Of the bivalves are opened
any Of the precious gems be lost or
stolen. A very strict watch Is kept
over the natives who are employed in
this kind Of work, but in spite Of the
greatest precautions some Of the small
er stones are frequently concealed. The
refuse from the shells Is very carefully
examined subsequent to this first ex-
animation. Even the dried dust Of the
oyster is carefully sifted.

Old Times at the capitaI.

In recalling the lively and pictur-
esque incidents which the old timers
enjoyed IN Washington one is moved
almost to tears over the commonplace
nature Of his own times. John Adams
used to battle In the Potomac every
morning at daylight because he had no
bathtub in the White House, and no
one ever pulled camera on him. Presi.
dent Taylor used to walk about the
town and stop and chat with every one
he met, like a policeman. A reception
In the White House In these days Is
relieved Of monotony only by the great
crush Of guests, who trample the
clothes Off one another's backs. Anoth-
er president set up In the east room a
600 pound cheese and invited the null
titude to come I'm and help itself, which
the multitude proceeded to do.

Wehster,s Worthless Area.

Daniel Webster was surely a great
orator when he uttered the peroration
Of his reply to Hayne, and a great
statesman when he formulated the
Ashburton treaty, but he failed as a
prophet when in the United States
senate he denounced a proposition to
establish a mail route from Indepen-
dence, Mo-, to the mouth of the Column
bia river. what" said the godlike
Daniel, "do we want with this worth
less area? This region Of savages and
wild beasts, Of deserts, Of shifting
sands and whirlwinds of dust, Of cac-
tus and prairie dogs? To what use
could we ever hope to put these great
deserts, or those endless mountain
ranges, impenetrable and covered to
their very base with eternal snow?
What can we ever hope to do with the
western coast, coast Of 5000 miles,
rock bound, cheerless, uninviting and
not a harbor on It Mr.. President, I
will never vote one cent from the pub
lie treasury to place the Pacific coast
one inch nearer to Boston than 1t now

Bad Hearing.

When Proctor Knott, now dead, was
governor of Kentucky an influential
citizen Of a mountain county In the
eastern end of the state was convicted
Of manslaughter and sentenced to serve
a term Of years In prison.
Having an aversion to going to pris-
on the mountaineer brought pressure
to bear upon the executive Office with
a view to securing a pardon. His en-
emies were equally active In fighting
his petition, and they set on foot a
movement to convince the pardoning
power that he was a menace to the
peace Of the community and belonged
behind steel bars.
One day the governor received let
ter written personally by the convicted
man. 1t began as follows:
Deer Gov-If you've heared what
I've heared you've heared you've hear

What Memory IL.

The correct way to increase the pro-
ductiyity Of the memory Is to link ev-
cry new thing with an understood
thought already in hand. Merely to
memorize the Bible and thus to be
able parrot-like to speak it "by heart"
Is not memory. Intellectually and emo
tionally to appreciate and understand
one psalm or proverb is memory. To
know where to put your finger on the
right verse or passage Of the Bible on
Jour table Is practical and useful rec
election. Dictionaries, directories, en-
cyclopedias, indexes and reference
books do the mechanical part for you.
Reason, association, adaptability and
the perception of relationships are bet
ter than much Latin and more Greek,
however beautiful and instructive these
may be In MISUNDERSTANDING.

Smokeless Powder.

Smokeless powder dates back some
fifty years. but it was not until about
1885 that it attained its real efficiency
and sprang into general use. It must
be understood that even the best Of
this powder is not absolutely smoke
less. 1t is not smoky enough, how
ever, to do any HARM" and as COM
pared with the old powder may well

From the mounds and ruins Of Qua

of British contributions to war chari-
