WALLS PLASTERED WITH COINS

Singular Conceit of a New .Jerecy Woman Numismatist. From the f hilidelphia Record: Miss Dntz of Dentzv.IIe, X. J., a suburb of Tientcn, has probably the largest collection of ccins in New Jersey. Some cf them are many hundred years old, and they repiesent the currencies of nearly every country in the world. Some idea of the size of the collection may be gathered from the fact that the ceiling of Miss Dentz boudoir is completely covered with United States money, while the four walls are hidden behind coins of Asiatic, European, African and South American countries. There is considerable history attached to this collection, especially to the English coins, which were found near Princeton in a queer-shaped hat by one of Miss Dentz' relatives while in search of minerals. The hat is similar in shape to those worn by the Hessian soldiers during the revolution, and is still in Miss Dentz possession. There are many valuable coins in her collection and were she to convert them all into present American currency they would yield quite a snug sum. TO CALIFORNIA. Via the Midland ICoute.

Philadelphia Record: In the power houses where big dynamos are running and heavy cables carrying powerful currents of electricity are all around great care has to be exercised to prevent the workmen from killing themselves through carelessness. Familiarity with danger sooner or later results in lack of caution, and experienced electricians are not infrequently badly shocked, if not killed, by carelessly touching an object they well know should be avoided. To correct this a plan has been adopted in several large power houses. It 13 neither arduous nor complicated, but it has worked well. It is simply to compel every employe to work with one hand in hi3 pocket, except when his duties absolutely require the use of both. Keeping one hand in the pocket not only keeps it out of danger, but also maintains the impression in the mind that dangerexists when both hands are free. It has the same effect as the string tied around a man's finger who has been told to do something he must not forget. One hand always in the pocket is a Aaluab'e reminder not to place it anywhere else unless a particular duty requires it. lladly Handicapped.

DEAD BEATS That Make Use of Hotels for TXelr Frivate Husiness. "You would be surprised," said a hotel clerk the other night, "to know how many schemers, fakirs, small promoters and curbstone brokers use our corridors and reading rooms as offices. Tuey make all their appointments here, and when a prospective victim turns up they head him into a quiet corner and transact their business as comfortably as they could in a suite in an cHlce block. Theres an old chap by the door who has been using the house as his own for sevtral years, and to my certain knowledge he has never spent a penny under its roof. He ha3 several agencies and patent rights, and now and then ho succeeds in getting a farmer on the string. The countryman supposes, of course, that he lives here, and is duly impressed by his surroundings. The old fellow takes him into U9 writing room, and if it isn't quiet enough there he doesn't hesitate to adjourn to one of the parlors. That's no unusual case, either. During the fore part of last carnival week one of these promoters actually took possession of a private parlor with a couple of clients, and barred out a number of guests until they could 'conclude their conference.' Formerly such gratuitous tenants had their mail addressed to the house, and called for it at all hours of the day and night, but we thought that was carrying the Joke a bit too far, and put a stop to it. It may be said

; without the slightets exaggeration that there are between thirty and forty men in New Orleans who make their offices regularly in the different hotels, and as far as I know, not one of them has ever been a guest. They are tolerated because we don't want the reputation of being moan, and don't care to take fhancps on offending any of their friend.-,, who might be bona fide patrons." A WOMAN'S TRAITS. Can He Head by the I.Ine About Her Mouth. A certain philosopher declares that a woman is known by her mouth. Not by the words that issue therefrom, but by the shape and color of the lips, and the lines and dimples that gather about this important feature. He its supported in his theory by physiognomists, who all endeavor to impress us with the fact that no woman with the small, red lipped "Cupid bow" mouth, so praised in song and story, was ever intellectual or generous of heart, and says Woman's Life, it is consoling to those whose mouths are not in accordance with the lines of beauty laid down by the poets to be told that a "wide, straight mouth, with strong, white teeth," denotes the woman of superior intelligence, goodness of heart.strength of mind, and a thousand and one other sterling qualities which we all like to think we possess. It is the fashion at present to hold the lips very elightly apart. This is supposed to give that innocent, wistful, wonderful expression which was the peculiar properties of the heroines of old-fashioned novels, but which bicycle riding and kindred modern amiicements have caused to vanish. It is difficult for the thinlipped, determined woman to acquire this trick, but perseverence works wonders. Heroes All. Private Purvis of tue Yorkshire regiment well deserved the distinguished service medal, which the queen recently pinned on his breast. In the course of hostilities with the tribesmen on the northwestern frontier, a brother private named Matthews fell to the ground with a bullet in his shoulder. The mountaineers were pressing so hardly at the time that no one could attend to the wounded soldier at the moment. By-and-by the foe was beaten back, and Purvis and his mates picked up the poor fellow. Just then the hillsmen began firing again upon the little group, and Matthews was hit a second time. In spite of every obstacle Purvis and his comrades carried the wounded man, now unconscious, within the British lines, but the brave private died the same night. KnsHian Statesman's Keniarkablo Career. Prince Chilkow, the minister for railways in Russia, commenced his career by making a tour of the world in order to take note of all the latest inventions, and especially to study the inner working and control of foreign railways. Ho first took a position as an ordinary mechanic on the locomotive works at Liverpool, and, after serving some years as a laborer, was raised to the post of railway guard, and afterward station master, at a small suburban station. When he returned to Russia he again worked his way from mechanic to station master and after working for several years in the latter capacity on the Trans-Caspian and Vareovie systems, he was made inspector general and finally min ister of railways. Slisbtly Mixed. "Well, I never saw anything like the Aay some agents can talk." said Mrs. Hank at the dinner table. "One was here this afternoon. She had about a dozen things to sell, and she had her story down so fine I think she could have sold cold cream in her sleep. But she did get things beautifully mixed at times. She was showing off some perfume, and her story went as though it was on wheels for a while, but she went off the track before she got through, and finished by sayiug, 'really, madam. I think you will find this the finest Foap you have ever used it makes an excellent lather.' All of that time she was holding the perfume bottle in her hand, letting me smell of the cork."

THIS GIRL RUK9

MISS AMELIA

Miss Amelia Judson is a saw miller In the heart of the Williams mountain, Arizona. Though she is a college-bred girl, a graduate of Cornell university, she is as expert at her trade today as any lumberman in the Arizona woods. She can direct a logging team or run a circular saw in fact, do any of the numerous things necessary to be done to convert huge trees into pine wood boxes, for that is the particular product for A'hich the Judson Mills are famed. How it came about is the story of an American girl's pluck and energy and her ability to rise to the necessities of the hour. It was the means of saving a fortune for her mother and herself. Andrew B. Judson was her brother. He left St. Louis, where he lived some six or seven years ago, to try to make his fortune in Northern Arizona. He had some little money left to him by an uncle who died in Missouri, and determined to invest it in developing the west's vast resources. He settled in THE WANDERING IKON BEFORE WHICH THE DEVOUT RUSSIAN PIOUSLY BOWS. The rrleaU Who Km-ort tbe Image on Its Travels ltelleve It Ungodly to Wash, ami Outlier In All Offerings That Are in Sight. (Special Letter.) To Americans, Russian religious ceremonies appear to be steeped in superstition and idolatrous in the extreme. The chief symbol of this church, which claims to be the one unchanged and unchangeable "Bride of Christ," is the ikon, or holy image, which may be met with anywhere and everywhere. This strange sacred picture is a distinctly primitive looking production. Byzantine in style, painted in dull colors on wooden panels, vague In outline, but curiously fascinating in its angularity and aloofness. To enhance its beauties, which might otherwise be considered too severe, it is more or less covered with metal plaques, which vary greatly, and run up the scale from gilded tin to jeweled gold. But the miracle-working ikon is sumptuA WANDERING IKON. ously clothed in gold and jewel?, the face alone being vhlnle, and perhap. one foot may be !:-a-e, in order to leave a convenient spot fjr the worshipers to kiss, for worshipers, in a line freiny of religious ecstasy, have been known to kiss away the precioiu jewels, which, being holy, apparently melted In the process. The piety of the Russian peasant is a universally acknowledged fact, and so well have the priest. understood this that everything has been done to encourage him in the way he should go. The ikoa represents the Almighty; therefore ikons abound the churches are crowded with th?m; in fact, the ikonostatis, or screfjii, which divides the body of the church from the altar, is entirely covered with thcfe holy images. They are to be found in every room In every house, in little wayside chapels in town and country, and during the autumn months they may be met with wandering along the rough, dusty roads, sauntering from village to village in the care of long-haired, dirty monks (cleanliness being considered ungodly), until the fall of the first snow, when they return to their own particular monastery or church by train a moro comfortable but less holy way of traveling. The wandering ikon in the illustration is a painting of the Virgin Mary, with metal halo and frame, gold and silver necklaces, crosses and amulet In its journeyings It had gathered together a curious collectloa of head-

A SAW MILL.

JUDSON. Coconmo county, Arizona, about thirty miles from Williams and hit upon a plan, that premised a fruitful investment. He bought extensive lumber lands, erected a mill and began the manufacture of pine boxes to supply the California fruit trade. Prom the start he found a ready market for his product and yearly made money. In June, 1S98, he was stricken with typhoid fever. His mother and sister hurried to hia side, but they could not save him. He died, leaving important lumber contracts unfilled that meant the ruination of the firm if they were not satisfactorily consummated. This Miss Amelia decided to accomplish. She took hold of the business, called upon her men for renewed exertions and met the contracts. Then she studied every detail of the trade carefully, and today can direct the affairs of the firm as satisfactorily as her brother. Her contracts amount to more than those enjoyed by any other two Arizona lumber firms. kerchiefs (a special feature in the Russian peasant woman's costume), homespun linen and towels, all of which were hung over the rail placed in front of the Image for that purpose. It is a very ordinary thing for the peasants to present their offerings In kind, money being a rare commodity with the majority. The villages through which the ikon is to pass are decked out in holiday attire. In front of each log hut there is a table with a white cloth, and on this cloth a big loaf of black bread and salt-cellar full of salt await the arrival of the wanderer. The priest who officiates on these occasions Is robed in his white gown, and murmurs unintelligible prayers as he wends his way from hut to hut, sprinkling each one with holy oil, while the inhabitants bow repeatc lly, throw back their heads, and mako the sign of the cross three times running, then kneel down and touch the ground with their heads, in token of humiliation, after which they rise to kiss the cross which the priest holds in his rij.:ht hand. The priest and his attendant monks in the meantime keep an eye on the bread and salt, which is swept off the tables by the latter, who also vigorously rattle tin money boxes as a gentle reminder to those whose homes have been blessed that even blessings can never be had for nothing. The entrance of the ikon into a town Is generally timed to take place on a holy day, for then every one turns out, and the wanderer is borne forth in triumph. Holy days are rigorously observed by the holiday-loving Russian, and, as each month possesses about a dozen of these "fetes." marked in large, red figures on the almanac, he is comparatively fret: to indulge in what he considers his bounden duty namely: Go to church, welcome the ikoa when wandering, and get drunk. Took Away Hi Living. It is well known that the mlfcsionaries in China do a great deal in the way of alleviating suffering among those who cannot obtain the services of a doctor. Quite recently a Chinaman lost his sight, and some ayinpathelic neighbors came and enlisted the services of the local missionary on his behalf. The missionary found his patient suffering from cataract and succeeded in removing it and restoring sight to the Chinaman. The obliging neighbors then, however, represented to the missionary that he had robbed the man of the means of earning his living (he was a "blind" beggar), and that in future he would be expected to take him into his service and keep him. Incandescent lump for Miner. The one disadvantage in employing incandescent lamps in coal mines, now that the installation of current is usually made for the purpose of operating electrical cutters or electrical locomotives, is the possibility of the ignition of the fire damp should the globe be broken by a blast or being struck. To obviate the possibility of such an explosion a German inventor proposes to provide the lamp base with a spring switch and mount the lamp against a flexible diaphragm, so that should tha lamp receive a jar the spring will bs released, thus cutting out the current. The whole device is also protected by ti hemispherical glass globe. Man docs not believe in immortality because he has ever proved it; but h is ever trying to prove it because, he cannot help believing. Rev. M. D. Shutter.

ARE PROFESSIONAL GOLFERS. How Their Status Is Defined In Regulations of the (iame. Most timely of the definitions is that touching the status of the golfer employed in mercantile houses selling sporting goods. According to the reVision, stockholders in such establishments, salaried people connected with them or writers on golf are not made professionals unless they use the game or the scene of it for the purpose of exploiting their business. Which means that the salaried representative or member of a mercantile firm who drums up business on the links, or the reporter or owner of a paper who frequents tournaments to secure subscriptions, becomes ineligible to amateur tournaments. And that is quite as It should be. Golf has suffered from the invasion of drummers in the guise of eportsmen. On the other hand, sportsmen have suffered by the Indefinite wording of the rule on this point; so it is satisfactory to have the rule clear and forcible. Another excellent and equally needed provision is that disqualifying for the championship those who have played in any golf tournament under an assumed name. Few realize how important is this provision, since it touches the very essentials of amateur sport. In keeping with the wisdom that prompted this ruling is that other rule classing as a professional in golf whosoever may be classed as a professional in any other sport. Harper's Weekly. An Open Air Theater. Sans Sotici Park. Chicago's new open air amusement resort, is attracting attention throughout the United States. The remarkable success of the park, with its hundred-odd attractions and mammoth electric fountain, has surprised the most conservative showmen and amusement caterers. This park is the largest and most costly one in the United States and managers generally expressed the most serious doubts about its being a paying venture. Over half a million dollars were invested and buildings of the most elaborate character were built. When the gates were thrown open the management of Sans Souci announced that for an admission fee of 25 cents they would give a high-class vaudeville, out-door performances, band concerts, displays of the electric fountain and several other amusement treats. More than 13,400 persons passed through the turnstiles on the opening night, and since that time the big ten-acre park has been entertaining large crowds every afternoon and evening. Its success has been marked from the firet and it is predicted that within a few years many parks of its caliber will be found in the large cities. Safety in Flieht. Larry was on the witness stand.

GIRL OPPOSED TO DIVORCES.

She Sought to IHsciih the Question at a Keceptlon, hut ;ot Into Trouble. A most embarrassing experience waa that of a certain West Philadelphia young woman, who, a few evening ago. attended a reception in which q number of well known club women participated. m It co happened tha? among these were several who had found the matrimonial yoke an unwelcome one for va'rious reasons, an.J had obtained legal separations from their husband-. To one of these ladies, quite unwittingly, having jus: been introduced, the young woman, who i.j nothing if not vivacious and conversational, addressed the question: "By :he way, Mrs. R , don't you think divorce is wrong?" The lady, reddening slightly, replied: "My dear, there are two sides to that question. Perhaps you have not heard my story." The questioner, embarrassed beyond measure, stammered an excuse and walked away. To the first woman she met she confided her trouble, saying, "O. dear. I have just made a rnot unfortunate remaik. You know Mrs. R ? Well, I spoke to her about divorce, auj she's divorced, you know." ".o am I. my dear." was the smiling reply, an! once again the young woman wL-LoJ :hat the floor would open under her. She felt so bad that she went to one of the ladies in charge of the reception, and taking her aside, told her tha whole story, asking her advice as to what she should do. "Do nothing at all. Miss I ," was her reply. "I really don't think they have any horror of the subject so long as it's innocently called up. I know I haven't, and I, too. am n divorcee." Whcrv.it the conversational mises donned her hat and fearing td say another word, went heme. COLLEGE EXPENSES. What does it cost to go to college? Xo exact answer can be given. A great deal depends on the college, and more cn the young man or woman. One man does not even regard it as a sacrifice to dispense with certain things which another deems indispensable. A graduate at a New England college, filling cut the blank in a list of questions asking him what he meant to do after leaving, wrote: "Nothing but to spend money." Perhaps he was not quite serious; but a young man who could give such an answer even jestingly, probably had already more money to spend than was good for him. Inquiries about the expenses of students were recently made at thirty representative colleges. The answers show a wide range, from two hundred and fifty dollars a year to one thousand dollars; and at women's colleges from three hundred and fifty dollars a year at Mount Holyoke to five hundred at Radcliffe or Vassar. Clothing is not included; but the figures are supposed to represent the average expenditures of students who have a serious purpose, but who also enter heartily into college life, belonging to societies and supporting student organizations. On one point all the answers agree. Not even at the largest universities, where there is most extravagance among some students, is a student who works for his own support looked down upon by the others. Colleges are highly democratic, and that form of snobbishness which despises a man because he is poor is almost unknown in them. Most colleges remit the tuition fees or give other aid to needy students, and many take special measures to help them to employment. Endowments and scholarship funds have been so increased that there probably never was a time when a really earnest young man or woman could go through College with less money, do better worl or have more enjoyment than now.
