OFFICIAL RED TAPE.

The Remarkable Joumeyingra of a Llgbtweight 820 Goldpiece.

Some weeks ago, in performance of his duty, Public Printer Benedict expressed a quantity of waste gold kef to the Philadelphia'mint, with the request that its value be returned to him in gold coin. He did not advertise the gold leaf for s«le, as be might have done, but preferred to deal with Uncle Sam direct, In a few days he received by express from the mint for the waste .gold leaf several ba^s of gold coin, the value of which was $1,619.54, He acknowledged its receipt and at once sent it to the treasury department to be placed to the credit of the miscellaneous receipts of the treasury.

The gold coin contained in the bags received from the mint was taken out by the treasurer and counted and weighed, as the law prescribes. Out of the $1,619.54 one $20 goldpiece, according to the treasury scales, was exactly $1.26 light Treasurer'Morgan wrote the public printer to that effect and rfe^uested that he at once forward $1.25 to make good the shortage of the $20 goldpiece.

Tho public printer did not propose to pay the $1.25 out of his own pocket, so he wrote to Superintendent Townsend of the Philadelphia mint, informing him that one $20 goldpiece was short $1.25 and to please forward that amount This wag done. In his letter containing the $1.25 shortage Superintendent Townsend expressed regret that the public printer had not returned the original $20 goldpiece.

Mr. Benedict on receiving the $1.25 sent it to the treasury department and got a receipt fur it This, he thought, wonld close the transaction. But it didn't Tho treasury officials, it seems, were not satisfied. Several day® afterward tho public printer received the goldpiece stamped across its face "light $1.25," with the request that he return to the department $18.75, so as to make hi« account balance, the department having received $1.25. This was a surprise to the public printer, but as he was dealing with government officials ho thought he could stand the racket if they could. He sent the light $20 goldpiece to tho Philadelphia mint, with tho request that they forward Treasurer Morgan a oertified draft for $18.75.

After a lapse of nearly a week he received a communication from Superintendent Townsend stating that he had woighed the disputed coin, and that he found a shortage of but $1 and requested the public printer to return to him tho 25 oents he had paid out in excess,

A demand was made on the treasury for 25 cents. It was receivod, and in turn Public Printer Benedict forwarded It to the mint.

This ended the transaction, but the question arises, Who made good the shortage in the $20 goldpiece? Did the superintendent of the mint at Philadelphia make the shortage good out of hia own pocket, or was it charged to the government? And, again, if the officials of tho mint weigh the gold ooin, as the law requires, how# is it possible for a light coin tb get out, and must not something be wrong with tho scales used by the treasury department? The treasury officials stamped tho coin $1.25 light Tho mint people say it is but $1 light. Had this matter occurred with private individuals.instead of government officials tho private individual would no doubt have had to pocket the loss.— Washington post

CELEBRATES HIS OWN FUNERAL.

After Solemn Mass Over an Empty Coffin All AUjourn to a Banquet.

An up to date disciple of Charles of Spain has held at a village of the Yonne department, in France, a kind of dross rehearsal of his funeral while yet in tho land of tho living. For tho past year gravediggers and masons had been engaged in preparing the gentleman's tomb, and he had surveyed tho work with loving care. When everything was ready, ho had a handsome marble slab put up, with tho date of his birth and the list of his titles and distinctions, winding up with the comforting .assurance that ho "had been a good father and a law abiding citizen" inscribed thereon. On his ninoiy-fifth birthday all his friends and acquaintances were invited to the rehearsal of his funeral. A solemn burial service took place at the ohuroh, and his empty coffin, placed under a eatafalquo and surrounded with wax candles, received an anticipatory blessing. To cheer up his guests, whom this lugubrious ceremony must have somewhat depressed, he then bade them repair to his house, where a grand banquet took place, at which tho beadle, the choristers and the priests who are to officiate at his real funeral were present Each guest pledged his word in a bumper of champagne that If he were still living at the time ho would not Jfail to "assist" at the funeral ceremony of which the rehearsal had just been gone through. The real event may not oome off yet awhile, for this imitator of the famous emperor is still quite hale and hearty in spite of his 05 summers.—London Telegraph.

TERR,

HELL.

RUSSIA'S NEW PENAL

Sakhalin, Death's Paradise, to Supplant Siberia ai» a Convict Colony.

It has been decreed by the czar's gov eminent that Siberia is too good for convicts, and as soon as the new transsiberian railway has penetrated its gloomy depths it will be turned into a "paradise" for agricultural settlers and

mining

sharps, while nihilists and other

refractory members of Russian society will in the future be accommodated on the island of Sakhalin, off the coast Russian Manchuria, the eastern termi nus of the czar's possessions, north of Japan. %,"|:j|ux

So horrible and revolting to civilized nations is Sakhalin that the czar only consented to its adoption as an open air prison after the assassination of Carnot and the discovery of the recent plots against his own life. The people and the convicts of Siberia never speak of the island other than "the hell of Sakhalin, and its climate is said to be so much worse than that of Siberia as to rob this appellation of an exaggerated character, even in the mouths of these lost ones. __ v*

Heretofore Sakhalin has been pressed into service as an open air prison only in the most extreme cases, where capital punishment, by'degrees, of course, was intended. Now that the exigencies of the great empire of the north demand the purification of Siberia all sentenced to deportation are carried off into th§ hellish wilderness without reference to 'the length of sentence, the nature of the crime or offenses they were accused of, without reference to sex or former status in society. The governor of Man churia has reported that a human being not born on*the island cannot live more than a year there. There is no means of escape except in winter, when if a prisoner can manage to make his way 100 miles north form the prison it is possible to reach the mainland over the ice. The ice bridge is guarded. Still two or three prisoners have escaped by dodging behind masses of snow and ice, or, what is far more probable, by bribing officials.

At the present moment the most interesting colonist of Sakhalin is Sophia Bluhstein. She first achieved criminal renown by pressing her attentions upon the shah of Persia during the latter's visit to St. Petersburg. Sophia had avowedly no intention of adding his majesty to her list of admirers, but sought his acquaintance merely for the purpose of relieving him, if possible, of some of his diamonds. She was foiled in her efforts, but sucoecded in having her private car attached to the shah's special train. For this piece of enterprise she was banished to Siberia for a year and whilo there organized a band of cucthroats and robbers, whose services she controlled on the continent after their terms had. expired. She is said to ba the sharpest criminal living, and in Bending her to Sakhalin the Russian government claims to have conferred a lasting benefit upon the wealthy classes. —St Louis Republic.

CASIMIR-PERIER'S PARDONS.

The New French President's Clemency Not Extended to a Single Anarchist.

Among the 874 persons pardoned by M. Casimir-Perier, says our Paris correspondent, figure, first of all, persons who have been condemned for violence or intimidation in connection with strikes, a highly politic move of President Casiinir-Perier, not merely on aooount of his personal, connection with mining intorests, nor because of tho advantage in general of making all generous concession^ that are consistent with the preservation of law and order, but also and in particular as being opportune on the eve of an interpellation on tho Graissessao strike.

Bosidos these cases of pardon there aro a certain number of other commou law offenders who benefit by the accession of a now president All persons condemned by virtue of the law of 1881 for incitement to anarchist outrages by speech or writing have been systematically excluded from the benefit of pardon.

It is not uninteresting to note that, in the official statement of what has thus been done, tho minister and president are carefully exonerated from all responsibility of having left the anarchists to pay tho full penalty of their outrageous acts by the assertion that the minister of justice previously called upon tho pardons commission to examine in detail tho dossier of the convicts in order to draw up a list of those in favor of whom a measure of clemency might be possible.—London Timea

A New and Novel Illusion.

At tho Earl's Court exhibition is shown a decided novelty which is called tho haunted swing. This new side show is of particularly diabolical character. You sit on a swing in a dark roAn, and while you gently sway backward and forward, a few inches only, the walls of the room are revolving vertically. The effect is to delude the unhappy victim into the belief that the oompartment is describing an entire circla Ladies have been seen to wildly hold their skirts about their ankles at the moment they imagined they were hanging in space head downward, and many a man on leaving the room oounts his money to see if any dropped from his pocket, so complete is the illusion.-—London Correspondent.

The Birth ofGoolcy** Pond.

There is a wonderful swamp immediately below the Mount Pisgait church and not over 800 feet from the road at that point For many years the place, which is now known as "Gootey's pond," has been "wet lands," but not until five years ago did water begin to rise over the ground. The place is in a big basin, containing perhaps 60 or 75 acres, of which about 40 acres are now tinder water, which is firom a few inches to several feet deep. It will finally be a deep lake unless drained, which is not likely to be done, owing to the heavy oost it would require.—£omeroet(Ky.)

The present senior United States senators from both North and South Carolina, Matt W. Ransom and M. 0. Butler, were major generals in the, Confederate service.

The representatives from' Tennessee in the upper hoijse of congress are Isham G. Harris, the senior, and William B. Bate, who is the junior senator from that commonwealth. The first mentioned was a war governor of his native and the last named was a major general in t'ue Confederate army.

And, lastly, Eppa Hunton, who saw service as brigadier general in the Confederate army, at present occupies the position of junior senator from Virginia in the congress of the -United States.

Thus do we perceive that of the mtfltitude of those who distinguished themselves in tbi military and civil annals of the confederacy only 12 remain in national halls upholding in the present, as they strove to do in the past, the rights and interest of the section which they are the honored represent* tives.—-Augusta Chronicle.

Since that time she has wasted rapidly, but the room where sho lies is full of flowers and objects of beauty. The gowns she wears aro creations of beauty, and she allows no mourning nor any allusion to her fate in her presence. She faces death with an absolute heroism that makes one want to applaud rather than to weep. This manifestation is not so grand as the manifestation of moral courage might be, but there is something about it which makes the blood tingle a bit—Chicago Herald.,

Refa*ed 960,000.

Two wealthy Bostonians who were greatly interested in photography recently discovered in Paris a maker of lantern slides who possessed a secret method which gave results of extraordinary brilliancy when the pictures were thrown on a screen. They saw at onoe that there were no such lantern glides produced on this side of the Atlantic and proposed to each other, to aoquire the secret from the Parisian owner. They found that he was by no means anxious to dispose of it

Then they determined to tempt him with a large amount of money. They agreed to offer him the sum of $60,000 for his secret and to agree that it should not be used commercially, but only in an amateur way. They wore ready to pay even more, but that was their formal offer. To their surprise the Frenchman replied that he wonld not sell his secret for any amount of money —that it was his alone he had never revealed it to any one, and he intended it should die with him. He seemed, in fact, as destitute of the scientific spirit as ho was of the desire tat money.— Boston Heralr!

HER LAST HALF YEAR.

Chicago Woman Who Is Passing: the Final Six Months of Her Life Royally.

Heroes do not always die ou battlefields. We all know that, but now and then the truth of the statement is exemplified in a manner that is forceful. One evening there came into tho room where I sat a beautiful woman tastefully attired. Her eyes were unnaturally brilliant, and in her cheeks there flamed a color iike a stain of blood. I recognized her at once as a well known and highly successful teacher in one of Chicago's public schools. There was something about her appearance that surprised me, for heretofore upon the occasions when we had met she hud been notable for the plainness, not to say tho shabbiness, of her attire. The rich velvet of the capo she wore and the feathers on her elegant hat caused me to exolaim: "Why, how handsome you look! What have you struck?".' "Death!" was the answer." "Thedoctors have told me today that I have an incurable disease and cannot possiblylive longor than six months. I have scrimped myself all my life to save money to buy books and cultivate my mind. I am through with all that. Now I am going to take a hand at the material pleasures. If I have but a half year to live, I'll live royally."

An Agvny of Horror For the Motorman, bat Pan For the Boys.

The street urchins who spend their' days round Eleventh and Twelfth streets and Third avenue, Brooklyn, looking for the mischief the father of all evil is supposed to supply for "idle hands to do, have found anew vacation amusement, and some of the motormen on the Third avenue trolley line are on the verge of nervous prostration.

The boys beg, borrow or steal old clothes until they have succeeded in getting together a very complete man's outfit The next thing is a dummy, life size, which is well dressed, even to hat and shoes. A dozen or more conspirators, escorting this semblance of a man, stroll'carelessly onto the track in front of an advancing Car, talking busily.

The bell is rung loudly, the boys scatter* and the dummy fsills across the track. Then the jokers discover their histrionic talent They rush back, apparently in terror, and make futile efforts get the minx out of danger

In the meantime the motorman, who is not the bloodthirsty wretch driving •the car of Juggernaut that he is popularly supposed to be, is in an agony of horror. His hair fairly stands on end, and the veins stand out on hi3 forehead as he uses all his muscle on the brake. If he succeeds in stopping before the car goes over the prostrate form, it is pulled off the track Mid sent flying into the oar with wild shouts.

The feelings of the unfortunate man at the brajce are too vehement for utterance when he discovers the trick. The scheme is very Bucoessful just about dark, and whichever way ft goes it is great fun for the boys.—New York Times.

""MANCHESTER'S SHIP CANAL.

It Is Beginning to Loom Up as a Large ,,

Sized White Elephant. ^,

It appears that the people of Manchester are beginning to find that their vaunted ship canal is something of an elephant on their hands. The chairman of the canal company has submitted to the municipal authorities a report which does not make them feel very good. His figures show that at the end of the current year the canal defioit will amount to £146,862, and unless some thing can be done about it nobody knows exactly what, the city will have to meet the interest of the bonds in 1896, which means an increase of taxation of 1 shilling 7% pence on the pound, or about 8 per cent

It appears, too, that the canal company has entered into sundry obligations which the corporation knew nothing about and to meet which will make a tremendous drain even on the resources of the corporation. The canal will, moreover, have to keep dredges at work at a cost of about $50,000 a year, and more capital is called for to meet the extra expenses of digging the canal.

The ohairman advises the taxpayers to make no fnrther pledges to the canal and announces, that he proposes to re sign the position of chairman, as he does not feel equal to th$ task of extrioating the caiial from its difficulties. This all makes a showing very different from the roseate reports of the canal which havo been coming acrossfthe^water.—New Orleans Picayune.

»A German View of Us.

The Berlin National Zeitung last week published a curious leader on American affairs. The witer's conclusion was that the Anglo-Saxon and German races were losing their determining influence on the Uilion's affaire. The influx of Catholic Irish and Italians as well as other Latin elements, ho thought, would at no very distant date lead to the crisis—feared now by some American politicians in which the CJnion would be divided into three republics—one on the Pacific, another on the Atlantic and the third on the gulf of Mexico.
