False Report.
Through some unfortunate mistake,
an item has appeared in many of the
papers of Pennsylvania during the last
few days, stating that Wilson College
is so burdened with debt that there is
danger of its being compelled to close
at the end of the current year.
This article does Wilson College a
great injustice, as it has practically no
debt and is in a most flourishing con
dition, having the largest number of
students in its history. Wilson has
been compelled during the past two
years to increase its dining room space
and to add to its dormitory rooms in
order to provide for the ever growing
demand upon it.
The faculty of the College is of un
usual strength, containing representa
tives of the best Universities and Col
leges of this country and, in its Music
Department, graduates of the Conser
vatories of Europe. The number of
students in every department of the
institution is larger this year than ever
before.
During the past year the College has
increased its campus by the addition of
some twenty acres and, by closing
roads, has secured grounds which are
not inferior in beauty and size to those
of the best institutions for women in
the country.

District Deputy High Priest Geo. W.
Vernes, of Williamsport, installed the

completed at the lodge room, a ban
quet was served in the basement of the
Presbyterian Church, only the big
eaters being in attendance. The dainty
eaters, ourselves for instance were
compelled to forego the pleasure.
However, it is reported a pleasant feed.
Mr. Vernes was acaompanied by Mr.
Frank McComsey, of Renovo.

Chinchilla Is a beautiful soft gray
fur. It Is not the most durable of furs,
and, because of the difficulty of getting
tb« perfect skin, It cannot be said to be
among the least expensive. A muff
and stole of the real chinchilla cost
MSll.r SI,OOO or so. The tluy chinchilla
Itself, not more than twelve Inches
Ikag, with a plump little body on short,
•tout legs, thrives only In the tropics.
The little beasts have to bo killed with
the utmost precaution not to Injure
their fur, that grows on a skin nearly
as temler and soft as s web of silk.
A. perfect skin not larger than a small
pocket handkerchief is a revelation
In fur growth. The texture of every
hair is finer than floss silk, the length
of It nearly an Inch and the coloring
about that of the soft, undyed marabou
feathers—Philadelphia Bulletin.

"Tho most remarkable arrangement
of numbers that I know of," said a lo
cal business college man who takes a
delight In solving curious problems
and digging up mathematical oddities,
"Is the combination of the six figures
142,857. Multiply ilils number by 2,
and the answer Is 285,714; by 3, find
the answer is 128,571; by -1. and the
answer Is 571,428; by 5, aud the answer
is 714,285; by <l, and the answer Is
857.142. Kncli answer contains exactly
the same digit.-: as the original sum,
and, to <•;>[> the climax, multiply the
number by 7. and up comes the answer
900,009. Try It and see if it Is not so."

A Rare Coin.
When Louisiana seceded, Jan. 20,
1801, the new government seized tho
United States mint at New Orleans and
struck $254,820 in double eagles and
$1,101,310.50 in silver half dollars,
using the United States dies for 1801.
The bullion was exhausted in May,
1801, when the coinage ceased aud the
United States dies were destroyed. A
Confederate States die was then made,
to bo used for silver half dollars, but
It was not fit for use in coining press,
the relief being too high. Four half dol
lars were struck with it on a screw
press, and these comprise the entire
coinage of the Confederate States.
What Wns Handing.
A New England father who believes
that children should be nourished on
good literature as well as on good food
has always read the English classics
aloud to his only son, Eddie, now six
years old.
A friend of the family, knowing of
this practice, recently asked Eddie
what he was reading.
"A Wavering novel," was his reply.

"Yes, I know," said Marjorie, "but I
