Immediately after the jury returned its verdict Sharp was released and immediately left for Michigan to join his family. It.is ‘highly probable that the liquor case pending against him on appeal from -‘a Ligonier court where he was convicted will be dropped. o

REMARK STARTED 1907 PANIC

J. Plerpont Morgan’s Censure of Cer tain Group of Bankers Caused o National Eruption.

The Wall street panic of 1807 was caused by a private “aside” from.a great financier. . A lleutenant within hearing took the remark literally and répeated it broadcast. Both men are pow dead. J. Plerpont Morgan was the flnancier and NoPman B. Ream, the Chicago capitalist, was the lieutenant., Mr. Morgan, without the slightest intention of having what he said repeated, had expressed his individual opinion of a certain group of men who were using their banks and trist companies in unwise bolstering of their speculative projects. = ~ “The old man has passed the word,” was the tip that went around -the street. In seeking to ingratiate themselves with what they thought Mr. Morgan wanted done, his small ‘army of “go-getters” pulled down some of the money temples.‘v The great financler had to send members of his own family into the .breach and effect a most difficult reconstruction. He saved the situation, but he never got over the fact that a chance remark can often do terrible damage. Mr. Morgan was a bullder and never a wrecker, yet those serving -him for a time put the public In doubt as to his true position.—Philadelphia Publle Leadger, = ;

COUNT COINS BY MACHINE Ejectrical ' Contrivance Also Wraps and Seals Money at Rate of - 420 a Minute. Very few of us have jany trouble In counting our coin by hand. In mints, however, in banking houses, in offices of electric railways and in many other establishments vast quantities of coin must be counted and packed daily. _ e ‘An electrical machine of the mast improved type counts coins of any size from pennies.to dollars, and wraps them at the rate of 420 a minute as long as the current is transmitted and the coins are fed into the hopper. - An expert, while he is in good workIng trim, can count and wrap 50 coins a minute; so it will be seen that the machine does the work of eight men. The services of a man are, however, required to operate the machine, his work econsisting of sorting the coins, picking out plugged pleces, blanks and buttons, which in some cases seem to get mixed with good money. ' : " The machine receives the sorted coins at one end and delivers them all smoothly rolled in bunches to suit and with the wrapper pasted. - . It is the invention of a man whose business it' was to collect coins from slot machines and to sort, count and bundle them. . i : o

Find Possum Among Bananas.

Strange visitors travel from time to time among the bananas that come to us from the West Indies and Qentral and South America. Bird-eating spiders, snakes and lizards, and various kinds ef. tropical insects are frequently found when the bunches reach their destinations. Recently a firm of fruit importers at Covent garden, London, had a shack when they opened a crate of bananas from South America. There, more or less concealed in ‘the center of a bunch, was a queer little ‘animal .which had been living on the bananas during its long voyage. The animal was captured alive and sent. to the London zoo for ldentiﬁc:gl'on. It turned out to be a rat-tailed Opossum, one Jf the interesting little animalsthat carries its young, not in a pouch like its relation, the Virginian opossum, but on its back, where the baby opossums hold themselves. on by twisting their tails round their mother's tail as it is held over her back.

_ Oldest Living Things.

As the largest existing organisms, the big trees of California occupy a place unique among the living things of the world, said Dr. H. A. Gleason, assistant director, lecturing at the New York Botanical garden. While they may be exceeded In height by some of Australia’s gum trees, as they are exceeded in dlameter by the chestnut trees of Sicily, in actual bulk, sald the lecturer, they are far greater than either of these. Authenticated measurements show that California’s big trees have reached a diameter of over 36 feet, hejghts of more than 850 feet and ages well over 3,000 years. Since they do not suffer from diseases and are not seriously Injured either by fire or lightning, and since trees apparently do not die of old age, the usual cause of death among the. big trees is by the undermining of the root system through the gradual removal of the soll by water.—Secientific American. - A

Exhaust Steam Saves Miilions.

It was some years ago that Sir Charles Parsons first showed that by ‘means of the steam-turbine exhaust steam from reciprocating engines could be used to produce power more economically ‘than it had been produced before. Later Professor Ra‘teau of the school of mines, in Paris, ‘discovered a method of using exhaust steam from englnes that run intermit‘tently. According to a high autherity, the practical result of the development of exhaust and mixed-pressure turbines has been that, on land alene, Jearly two million horsepower of electrical ‘energy is being generated by means of exhaust steam thét gas previously been wasted.
