T< !s a common thing to hear of a man being property poor, though it's kind of poverty tn Kin lin rn KSinen t 1 that isn't half com of Itleliea. . , , mon enough, but there is a man in Pittsburgh, accord ing to the New.; of that city, who is postage stamp poor. He didn't know ihere really were so many stamps in existence until he came into his stock, and now he is eagei*'to dispose of the lot cheap, for he needs the money. About a year ago he loaned his broth er S2OO to start up in a small business •with a large mail-order department. "Under the mistaken idea that stamps are legal tender, with a deposit of bul lion behind them in the national treas ury, the debtor recently paid his ibrother the S2OO in stamps. That amount of money in one-dollar bills makes a rather bulky roll, as anyone ■who ever nau that much at once can testify, but S2OO in one-cent and two cent stamps would till a large waste basket, 'the Pittsburgh brother takes the debtor's word for the correctness «112 the count, for he cannot afford to hire an auditor, and his own time is too valuable. The stamps are not even in sheets. They came in little strips of from three to ten. while sev eral thousand were sent singly. lie has stocked up all his friends with enough to last them for months, but he still has enough left to begin at the other end of an endless chain-let ter scheme and work it backward. In the Boston Journal the fashion able ladies' tailor relates the tragic . „, sto r y of"The Story of a Iroua- Trousseau." The " < " nu ' lady lived in the country. Periodically she came to town and ordered gowns without both ering about the price. "Finally one day she came to town—oh she was a fine woman as well as a fine customer—and she said: 'l'm going to be married soon. I should like as good a trousseau as you can make.' She knew what that would mean in the way of expense, but she never asked a question about prices; it was a carte blanche order, you see. Well, we went to work and imported some of the best goods—silks and satins and laces—that could be iound in Paris. You may be sure that it was a trousseau we were proud of. In round figures the cost was $2,000. It was all ready a week before the dat» set for her marriage, and we were just about to ship it, when —what do you thing?—we got word that she was dead. She had been killed accidentally in her own house. No, we didn't lose our money. We putin our claim against her estate. It vyas a tragic bill Wasn't it?—' Trousseau, $2,000."' A lady resident of Mexico, Mo., ha* 3ust won a curious lawsuit brought against he* by a Connecticut firm which manufactures bronze monu ments. Som-i time ago she ordered from the plaintiffs a $384 bronze mon ument to be erected on the grave of her parents, with this inscription: "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want." The engraver made it read "fear" in stead of "want," and Mrs. Doty re fused to pay the bill. The la wsuit fol lowed. The judge instructed the jury that if they considered the inscription to be a material variance from the words of the psalmist they should find for the defendant, and they did so. Many humorous features were de veloped in the taking of the census of 1900. One question was indicated by the remark "length of residence," which was expected to show how long the people living in various localities at the time of the census had been there. When the reports came in it was found that many of these queries were answereu in figures in this way: 20x40, 15x30, etc. The enumerators had gone around with a foot rule and had measured the length of the resi dences of the people they counted. Rest rooms for farmers' wives are being established in some towns in the west. They are located in the business center and are made cozy and comfortable with easy chairs, lounges, books and magazines. Some offer tea at the nominal price of three cents a cup.

New York, Oct. 30. —Two colored prisoners, in an attempt yesterday to escape from the prison attached to the Seventh district court, in West Fifty-fourth street, killed Keeper Hugh MeGovern, 51 years old, and probabiy fatally injured George Wil son, 50 years old, a "trusty" who tried to aid McUovern. One of the prison trs, Arthur Flanagan, escaped; the other, Frank Emerson, fell into the yard adjoining the prison and was in stantly killed. The prisoners were together in a cell on the first tier, on a level with the fourth floor of the prison. They sawed two bars in the lower part of the cell door and got into the corri dor. They went to the nearest win dow, about six feet from the floor, and sawed one bar at the bottom, shoving it out and getting through. In doing this it is supposed that, they encountered McGovern and Wilson, killing one and wounding the other, llow this was done is not known, as Wilson cannot give an account of what happened. The escaping prisoners used their bedding lor a rope and swung from a window. Flanagan succeeded in swinging to the roof of a car stable adjoining, but Emerson did not make it and fell headlong on a pile of rails, whree his body was found with the skull crushed in. ALVORD IS CAUGHT. Alan Who ICmbezzled $700,000 from a New York Hank I* Arretted In Hoaton. Boston, Oct. 30.—Cornelius L. Al tord, the absconding note teller of the First national bank of New York City, who is charged with stealing $700,000 from the bank, was arrested here Monday afternoon by Chief In spector William 1?. Watts, of this city, anil Detective Armstrong, of New York, in an ordinary lodging house at the corner of West Newton street and Burlington avenue. When arrested Alvord, who knew Detective Armstrong, stated that he was glad tiie suspense was ended and was willing togo back to New York without papers. When asked what he had done with the money he said: "Well, $700,000 is a whole lot of money, but it goes easy." In referring 1 to horse races, he said he had backed horses, but never on race tracks, and had owned fast horses himself. He said he had lived his life and had taken life to ils full at the rate of $50,00?) a year or more. He said he would not make any fight, would throw up his hands, take his sentence and after that was over would come out in the world again. He said he knew he would be unable to secure bail and that he had nothing with which to make restitu tion. Otla (iel» a New Job.

MILLIONS SQUANDERED. Connt t'aalellane, flit- lliiaband of An* na t.outil, t omea lo llie End of Ills Financial Tellier. Paris. Nov. I.—-The civil tribunal has appointed (ieorge ,1. (lould trus tee for the Countess of Castellane, his sister. According to (lie pleadings in the case her husband, Count iioni Castellaiie, spent 23,000,000 francs in four years, whereas his income from his wife's fortune is only 3,000,000 francs. Maitre Bonnet, when applying for the trusteeship, informed the presi dent of the court that the countess herself recognized thai the expendi ture had been too laxisii and that it. was accessary for some one of expe rience and authority to manage her II Hairs. He went onto say that, al though the countess was a consenting party to the trusteeship, it was de ferable that he should furnish precise details. The income of the countess was ::.0(i0,00<) francs. Since the marriage 35.000,000 francs had been expended, and the debts now amounted to 22,- 000,000 francs. The Could family had met in con sultation and unanimously decided to make Mr. George Gould trustee. Maitre Bonnet went onto assert, that the creditors distrained on the Seine Et Oise property and that tin family lad to intervene to prevent ibe sal--. With regard to the fitness of George Could to be trustee. Maitre Honnet pointed out that his fortune was larger than that of the countess; that authority based on affection wruld be good, and that no one was better qualified, as it was Mr. George (iould who was appointed executor of his father's will. Another consideration was that the clearing of the debts would take a number of years and that therefore it would be wise to economize arid not togo to the ex pense of a paid trustee. The tribunal, taking I his view, de clared the plaintiff "possessed hitler than any other, of the necessary po sition ai d authority, to assist the de fendress."

Monnett, of Ohio, in a democratic speech at Napoleon on the 22d inst., stated lhat I.in a letter to him and aiso in a personal interview with hira, said that the reason why the trusts have not been prosecuted was that the president has been inactive and indifferent in the enforcement of the anti-trust laws. "'Unless Mr. Monnett las ta\ett leave of his senses. 1 cannot, believe he ever made such a statement. So far as I can recall, or the records of this department show. I have never written him a letter upon any s*>b icct. I am sure that 1 never wrote him a letter upon the subject of trusts, nor in any wise alluded to the art ion of this administration with refernce thereto. As to his allegation that I made such a statement in a personal interview with him, that Is also entirely untrue. 1 never met Mr. Monnett but once, and that was only for a few minutes when he called to pay a visit, of courtesy, being intro duced to nie by his predecessor, flit present solicitor general. Hon. John K. Richards, of Ohio. I do nol think or believe that Ibe subject of trusts, or any other subject, except such as would arise in general conversation upon a visit of this nature, was touch ed upon. 1 am sure that I made r.o fuch statement as you say Mr. Mon nett attributes to me. Nor could I have made such a statement, because it would have be°n untrue." LIPTON'S CORNER IN PORK. Tlie ICnjfllahman Squeezed (i:iitl,OlHl (lilt of < lileagii Speeu I a lor*. Chicago, Nov. 1. —The culmination of the October pork corner, con trolled by Sir Thomas Lipton. came yesterday when pork for delivery that month advanced $3, rising from sl* to S2O. It was said that Sir Thomas could have made the price SIOO as well as S2O. but he declared he had no intention of "squeezing" anybody. As a result of his deal here Lipton is believed to have made $350,000. There were only 35,000 barrels of pork iliat could be delivered and the En glishman owned them all, as well as twice that number bought from peo ple who did not have a barrel thej could deliver. When the price reach ed sl6 some time ago the majority of shorts thought it time to buy some cf the pork they had contracted to deliver at approximately sll per bar rel during October.

Mr. Hosier is dead; his companion, Harry Hurgess, messenger of the company, is wounded; two of the Italians are dead; a third fatally wounded and the fourth in jail Hosier and Hurgess left this city at 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon with the safe containing the money to pay the men at the Alverton and I'arr works. As they reached the summit of the long hill above Morcwood, just below which lies Alverton, a large cok< town, without a second's warning the four Italians fired a volle.t from their hiding place and sprang forward, tir ing as they advanced. Mr. Hosier fell dead at the first- vol ley. Young Hurgess, though wounded, was able lo return their fire with effect, and one of the number at the horses' heads fell dead. A second later he fired his revolver in the very face of another, and as be fell his two re maining companions became terrified and, leaving the dead, set out with the wounded one over the hill lo Ihe south in the direction of the Alice mines. Burgess managed to drive on into Alverton with the body of Mr. Hosier and the safe, where he gave the alarm.
