231 PERSONS AFTER CASH
New York, June 18.—It would need
$100,000,000 annually to satisfy the
people who send petitions to Miss
Helen Gould. The requests for gifts
and loans she receives aggregate
nearly $2,000,000 a week, and they
range all the way from the asking
for $15 for a set of false teeth to
$1,000,000 to start a colony in Cuba.
Miss Gould gave an itemized list of
a week's requests recently to Franz
Kaltenborn, the orchestra leader at
St. Nicholas garden. A movement is
on foot among the music lovers of
this city to make Mr. Kaltenborn’s or-
chestral music a permanent feature
in New York. For this subscriptions
from wealthy persons would be neces-
sary. Miss Gould was one of those con.
sulted. She encouraged Mr. Kalten-
born, but incidentally cites the fact
that this was not the only thing she
was asked to encourage. Then she
gave him the list.
Four brides within a week have
asked Miss Gould to contribute $2000
toward their trousseau.
Thirteen wanted treatment for can-
cer, morphine, alcoholism, ete.
One wanted to be sent free to Eu-
rope.
One wished to sell a quilt.
One asked for money to get a pris-
oner released.
Another wanted to take goods from
storage.
One wished to buy music.
Still another needed help to remove
a watch from pawn.
There were 10 requests to ald
church fairs, 231 for money, 34 for old
clothes, 3 for watches and 14 for schol:
arships.
Eleven persons wantcd pianos, and
12 wanted Miss Gould to buy their in-
ventions. One person wrote a long let-
ter offering to give her the last chance
to buy a ring for $1200 which was
worth four times that much, if a cent.
A girl wanted to sell her a brooch for
$500, and still another said she had a
lovely Sevres vase which Miss Gould,
“bein’ it was her,” might have for
$500. A son filled with filial love want-
ed to erect a monument to his father.
He suggested that Miss Gould cen-
tribute $50 toward that worthy end.
An opera, one writer declared, was
unsung because Miss Gould would not
back its production. One oratorio
was in a similar fix. One person need-
ed an electroplate; another cards, and
still another yearned for a farm and
three cows.
Please help open a photograph gal-
lery, was the idea of one poor soul;
while another needed a horse and cart
to peddle with, and yet another must
have money to print 2000 hymnals. A
clergyman asked for a horse and
buggy.
Miss Gould was asked to furnish a
house ,s0 that a girl could marry at
once. One fellow asked for a job get-
ting up railroad timetables, which
would really show what time the
trains start and what time they actu-
ally get away.
Miss Gould received in the week 126
personal letters, 25 marked copies of
newspapers, two almanacs, six books,
31 catalogues and ight magazines.
NEGRO ENTRANCES HER
Pretty Austrian Girl Just Suited With
5 Ebony Man.
Allentown, Pa., June 17.—Among 2a
crowd of immigrants which stopped
off at the Jersey Central depot was
a pretty Austrian girl.
“Phey had to wait several hours for
a change of trains. In the meantime
the girl espied a colored man sitting
on a baggage truck. She had never
geen a negro, and she immediately
became infatuated with him. She
openly commenced to make love to
him, and her friends had a hard time
placing her aboard the train when it
arrived. The negro seemed glad to
escape.
SUFFOCATED IN SAND PIT
Two Boys Buried Alive and the Third
Rescued.
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., June 15.—Evan
Jermyn, aged 8, and his brother, aged
9, children of David Jermyn, of Ply-
mouth, were suffocated in a sand pit
at that place. The two boys, together
with Willam Cummings, another
youngster, were playing in the pit
when several tons of loosened sand
fell on them. The Cummings boy
was not entirely buried and he was
rescued, but the other two youngsters
were beneath the sand haif and hour,
and life was extinct when they were
extricated.
Ground to Pieces on Rallroad.
Lancaster, Pa., June 14.—Portions
of a man’s body were found scattered
along the Pennsylvania railroad tracks
for a distance of 100 feet at Gap. When
the Philadelphia accommodation ar
rived at Christiana it was found the
brakes were not working properly,
and an investigation disclosed por.
tions of a man's body and clothing
wedged in the rigging. Papers found
on the body bore the name of B. J.
Quinn, Richmond, Va.
Killed Chlidren With Whisky.
New York, June 17.—Alcoholism
was given as the cause of death of
three children of an immigrant family
arriving on the Cretic. It was sald
their moxher, in ignorance, gave them
too much whisky when they became
ill on the voyage.
A Penny Saved,
When Benjamin Franklin wrote “A
penny saved is a penny earned,” he
did not mean a penny skimped £
our daily living or from our ni
ties. That is not “a penny saved” In
the best sense. It is a penny stolen
from yourself. A penny saved is a
penny rescued from waste. An hour
taken from needed sleep is not an hour
saved, but an hour stolen. An hour
taken from Idle gossip and turned to
some good account—that is an hour
gaved. And it is the same way with
our money and our products. There is
no economy in self denial. It Is the
duty of every man and woman to live
the fullest and best life possible, to
get the most they can out of life, to
nourish the body and mind and soul
and to develop them to the highest
possible degree. This cannot be done
by skimping. Economy is necessary,
but we must not mistake what econ-
my Is. We must save the wastes,
stop the leaks; but, having saved, we
must put our savings to some good use,
¢lse we are like the miser with his
gold—a detriment to society instead of
1 good.—Exchange.
The London Police Whistle.
What is the most powerful weapon
a man can carry against the possible
dangers of nocturnal London? For
general utility and for special emer-
gencles you cannot—at least such is
one night rambler's experience—beat
the ordinary police whistle. In addi-
tion to its services as a cab caller—one
for a growler, two for a hansom-—there
are times, happily extremely rare,
when it may prove a tower of strength.
One such occasion the writer can re
call. About two hours after midnight
in a quiet byway. An agitated elderly
gentleman at an open door, which he
iz afraid to enter. The lock has been
forced, and within may be—burglars!
Have you seen a policeman? No. But
three blasts on the whistle and the de-
gerted pavement swarms with them.
From every corner one arrives, and
the house Is surrounded. The home
going citizen knows not by what forces
he is encompassed till he sounds that
whistle in his or some one else's emer-
gency.—London Standard.
When the Snuffbox Went Round.
A curious characteristic of the earlier
days of club life was the almost uni-
versal practice of snuff taking and its
very slow replacement by the use of
tobacco. It was part of a gentleman's
education to manipulate a snuffbox ele-
gantly, and the possession of a number
of costly specimens of these receptacles
was indispensable, explaining why
snuffboxes of every variety in gold,
silver, enameled and jewel Incrusted,
are nowadays so largely found among
the curiosities of the collector. There
were snuffboxes kept full in every
room in the clubhouse, and. the fre-
quent call for it by an irritable old
member was one of the hits in Bul
wer Lytton’s play “Money.” ' The sup-
ply of snuff was made gratis to mem-
bers. The cost amounted to £20 or
£30 a year, and as the indulgence in
tobacco in this form gradually gave
way to that of smoking the expendi-
ture was thought unnecessary.—Fort-
nightly Review.

Children of Old Egypt.
Children are much the same all over the
world in their love of es and play-
things. Aod what ie still stranger is ¢
fact that they loved these thousands of
years ago, just as they do today.
Th dol made of
ey possessed
wood ; and, like those of the t time,
they differed a good deal in their make.
ptian children, ages ago, amused
themselves by working figures of men and
animals moved by strings. One of these
was a fanny little figure of a man bending
over a sloping table with a lomp of some-
thing, probably dongh, between his hands.
His arms and legs were jointed, and by the
pulling of a string he was made to roll the
dough along the table.
Among the animals they copied in their
toys were the crocodile and the cat. Ver
often they made the lower jaw of the ani-
wal hang loose upon hinges, and they fast-
ened a string to its upper side. The striog
was then passed through a hold in the
upper jaw, and by palling this string the
child could make his toy bite.
Egyptian children played with balls, as,
indeed, the grown-up people did, too. The
Egyptians loved painting, and covered the
walls of their places with pictures of their
daily lie. These are still to be seen, clear
and bright, as if they were painted only a
little while ago. Some of these pictures
show us men and women playing with
balls; so we know that playing at hall was
