A LITTLE OF
Tho reoeipta of Klondike gold at
tho San Francisco mint and at the
Seattle BHHay oQice from July 1st to
September 30th, aggregate $18,047,
555, and of Cape Nome, $2,311,801.
Grades are to be gained at Gal
veston and a aolid sea trail put in.
The judgment of engineers is tbat
the place may bo made perfectly
safe, even against Buoh a storm as
that of September last.
The timber cut in eastern Maine
this season will be the largest in
years. The cut will reach 110,000,
000 feel; of this 40,000,000 will go
into pulp. The price of manu
factured lumber is higher than it
was last year. ..
So far as known the Belgian
government is the only one having
an offiuial rule that when men are
being hoisted or lowered in a mine
shaft a capable assistant is required
to stand by the engineer to replace
bim in case of sudden indisposition.
The division of customs and in
sular affairs of the war department
has given out for publication a
statement of the receipts of the
Havana custom house for the month
of August, 1900, showing that the
total receipts for the month were
991,920.
An official report sets forth that
the health of our navy is particu
larly good. It usually is though,
from the beginning of things, this'
!ame navy has had a propensity for
making ihiogs decidedly unhealthy
for other navies, under certain cir
cumstances.
During the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1900, there were landed in
the United States 448,551 immi
grants. The eight leading coun ries
contributed as follows: Austrc-
Hungary, 148,847; Italy, 100,125;
Russian Empire, 90,888; Sweden,
18,650; Germany, 18,510; England,
17,254; Japan, 12,906; Norway,
9,585.
General Grecly has received a
cablegram from China saying the
Signal Corps line from Tien-tain to
Peking, along the Pei-ho, has been
completed. Withiu a short time
it is ecpected, the Signal Corps line
will be completed from Tien-tein to
Taku, making a through connection
over the military line from Peking
to Taku.
Automobiles are being tried by
the postal authorities of New York
City for the collection of mailB in
upper New York. The net result
of the twenty-two experimental trips
made has been a saving of fifteen
minutes on each trip. The trips
have been made at times when the
streets were very crowded, and but
two instances of delay have been
reported.
Morocco has the smallest navy
in the world. It consists of just one
vessel the Hassini. Until recently
the peculiar feature of this warship
was thai it had no gum; but the
Sultan, Abdul Aziz, has now pur
chased at Cndiz four of the lightest
pieces of ordinance left to the Span
ish by the United States at the
close of the war, and has had them
mounted. He is thoroughly satis
fied that in the event of a war with
any of the powers the "reorganized
navy would be able to sweep the
eons.
The friends of Sergeant Fowler, of
the Forty-seventh Infantry, United
Slates Volunteers, stationed in the
Philippines with hea'dquarters at.
Legaspi, have received news to the
effect that he has distinguished
himself in 'battle. . He shot and
killed a young native lieutenant
named Mnrous, and enptured his
sword. Lieutenant Marcus' father,
Mnrcellus Marcus, a man of wealth,
on receiving the news of his son's

death, organized a troop of
3,000
men and offered to
left ear of any meml
men and offered to pay $100 for the
Bmber ol the Forty-
seventh Regiment. Since then every
Amr-ri(;ait killed near where the
Forty-seventh is stationed has been
found with his left ear missing.
In the village of Bodra a Turk
named Ismail, aged 120 years, is in
such good health tbat be frequently
walks to Bartin, six hours' distance,
to sell eggp, for he is a poultry
farmer. He has had 34 wives, the
last of whom he mairied only a few
davs ago The bride is 60 years his
junior, and the marriage was cele
brated with much solemnity to the
nniinrl of flriimH and fifes an 1 of
volleys from firearms. The whole
village was en fete. The wedding
procession included all the male
progeny of the patriarch bridegroom,
consisting of 140 Bons. grandsons
and great-grandsons. The number
of his female progeny is not stated.
There is a pretty custom in vogue
in Denmark which might with ad
vantage be copied here. During the
summer holidays an arrangement
is made by which little Danes from
town and country change places.
The parents of town children send
their little folks off to the country
and receive in exchange country
children. The result is that town
children are strengthened and glad
dened with country air sights,
while the little rustics enjoy the
pleasures of town life and the feeti
vals which are for their benefit
This exshange system results in
10,000 childieit from Copenhagen
getting a country hiliday, and an
other 10,003 are brightened up by
a visit to the Danish capital.
When European orders for Amer
ican coal come in at the rate of
half a million tons at once, as they
are said to be coming now, it in
time to reflect what this means. It
seems to mean that the European
mines are so nearly exhausted that
it pays consumers in that cart of
the world to buy coal in this conn
try and send their own ships for it
in preference to patronizing the
mines which are, comparatively
speaking, at their doors; and if this
hypothesis is correct, it means an
immense increase in our trans-At
lantic coal trade in the immediate
future, with a correspondingly ropi i
depletion of our own supply. Look
ing a little further it seems to mean
that it is time science was finding a'
satisfactory substitute for coil as a
feuel and motive power'.- - -
As the disciples of the chafing
dish know, alcohol is not a fuel to
be trusted. Instead of burning
quietly ii sometimes shows such ex
cess of service that it becomes dan
gerous. There is good news for
those who have found everything
ablaze beneath and about the chaf
ing dish, whioh w'll save them from
any Buch trouble hereafter. A Ger
man chemist baa discovered a proc
ess or solidifying alcohol. His
method is a secret, but tbat does
not matter. The alcohol is pre
pared in small cylinders enclosed
in a tin box. It can be used for
cooking, lighting or for any of the
ordinary needs of life of that kind.
The solidified alcohol is lighted and
burns easily, but does not melt. It
oan be carried on one's travels,' is
always ready to heat the water for a
cup of tea or to v arm the curling
tongs.

Admiral Ho has informed the

anxious to conciliate the villagers

a Philadelphia shoemaker, sent to
Russia for bis wife and five chil

days ago and were detained'
because one of the children, a girl -eight
years old, was an imbecile.
The law prohibits absolutely the -admittance
of an inBane person or
an idiot into this country. A brrther '
of the woman, named ' Hodee,-of
Youngstown, Ohio, saw Aeaistaatt
Secretary of the Treasury Taylor"
and arranged that Mulne should
take the idiot back to Russia .while
Mrs. Mulne and the four healthy-
children should go with him to his
home in Youngstown.
Assistant Secretary Taylor "said
that under no circumstances could
the child be brought into this
country. If the father was able to
give bond to the amount of a million
dollars that the child would be well
taken care of and that it would
never become a publio charge it
would have no effect, as the law
makes no provisions lor the enter-
'ing of idiots. ' '
