LOOKING FOR A FORTUNi.
An Avoci Jlun Hopeful of Getting n
Slum! oftlio IticliurilMill Million.
Wllkes-Baite, June 14. Tho Record
says: Attorneys llalsey and McHugh,
of this city, have been engaged to look
after tho claim of Benjamin Blchard
Min. of Avoca, who soys he Is tho
nephow and heir of Joseph Richardson,
the rccentrlc millionaire ot New York,
who died recentlv.
The claimant Is the son of John
Rlehatdson, a native of Enslanc, who
went when still a young man to Ire
land, locating In County Armagh.
Twenty-nlm- years ago Benjamin
Richardson came to this country with
his family, locating In Parsons. HH
sons, Thomas and George Richardson,
obtained good positions, one a night
engineer and the other fire boss. The
Tatter Is still living In Parsons, and
Thomas is'at Mill Creek. A few years
ago Benjamin Richardson removed to
Avoca, where he is at present located.
Mr. Richardson says he Is sure tho
dead millionaire was his uncle.
There Is, however, very little prob
ability of the Avoca Benjamin getting
a penny of the fortune, ns by Mr.
Richardson's will the J20.000.000 he left
was divided equally between his wife
and two children. He made only two
other bequests, one of $100,000 to the
Central Park Baptist church and one
6f JfO.000 to the pastor, Rev. W. M.
Warren.

DF.PAUT.IIKNT STORES OF PARIS
System by Which the Employes Aro
Organized, Lodged and Fed.
From the Philadelphia Record.
The great department stores In Paris,
such as the Bon Marche, the Louvre
and the Prlntemps, carry the organiza
tion of employes to n point not dream
ed of here, and have In operation ex
tensive and costly plans for stimulat
ing the Interest and energy ot the help
In the business to the highest degree.
Tho new employe receives at tho start
a salary of 400 francs, or about $S0 a
year, besjdes being lodged and fed, and
In addition a commission of from 2 to
5 per cent, upon his sales, so that the
lowest salesman rarely makes less than
$100 a year. A head of department, or
buyer, as he Is known' here, may easily
make from $2,500 to $3,000 a year, and
some of them exceed $5,000. Whilo
these figures are low compared with
the $10,000 and $20,000 salaries paid in
New York, they seem high when meas
ured by the scale of salaries that pre
vails In France. Thus the best paid
among the higher employes recelvo
larger salaries that the presidents of
sections In the council ot state and
generals of divisions. Tho average pay
of an experienced salesman is about
4,000 francs, or $S0O a year.
The total number of employes in tha
Bon Marche and tho Louvre is about
3,000 each, among whom are only about
400 women. In tho Bon Marche and tho
Louvre lodging in the buildings pro

The Louvre has on the avenuo Rapp
a great building accommodating 250
male employes, and not far from It
nnother, where 100 young girls aro
lodged. The Bon Marche furnishes
similar accommodations. All theso es
tablishments are conducted under pe
culiarly stringent rules. The girls have
a parlor where the entertainments are
organized on Sundays and certain
evenings ot the week, but from which
tho other sex la excluded utterly. Not
even a father or a brother may be re
ceived there.
All the employes receive their meals
In the stores, except tho highest, and
these are permitted to eat outside, and
receive an allowance of S0O francs a
year In the way of commutation ra
tions. Furthermore, married employes
are allowed to dine at home, and re
ceive a commutation of one franc a
day. The average cost of food Is from
32 to 40 cents a day for each employe.
The fare consists, at tho Louvre, of one
helping of meat, all the vegetables and
bread that can be eaten, dessert and a
pint of claret. For dinner soup Is ad
ded. At the Bon Marche the employes
may ask for two helpings of meat. The
nverage dally Quantity ot food con
sumed In one of theso establishments
Includes 2,500 quarts of soup, 3,000
pounds of bread. 2,500 pounds of meat,
1,200 pounds of fish, 500 pounds of but
ter and ten barrels of wine. At the
Louvre the kitchen force Includes fif
teen cooks and eighty waiters. The
cost of the food exceeds 2,000,000 francs
a year.
The great stores have a medical ser
vice for their employes, which Includes
nn Infirmary and outings In the coun
try or at the seashore. In addition
when a man or woman completes seven
years of service at the Louvre a sum of
1,000 francs Is accredited to him in the
pension fund, nnd afterward 200 francs
a year up to his fiftieth year of service.
The savings fund of tho Bon Marche
nmounts now to 2,000,000 francs, and
200,000 francs Is added annually, and In
addition there Is a pension fund found
ed by Mme. Bouclcault, who built up
this immense business, which now
amounts to 6,000,000 francs.
THE M1NIN TUNNEL.
What It Hn Bonn in Electing Econo
mics In New Developments.
From the Engineering Magazine.
Many persons residing at a distance
from mining districts have the most
erroneous Ideas as to the supposed sim
plicity and enormous profits of mining,
apparently deriving their Information
from the data of phenomenal assays,
or occasional pockets of rich ore, mis
takenly assuming that such cases are
average samples, and that ore can be
dug almost as potatoes are dug. On tha
contrary, with the exception of a very
few mines which may pay expenses
from the grass roots down, successful
mining today Involves the maximum
of practical experience, professional
knowledge and financial means. This
Is fully borne out by the following brief
notice of some of tho leading mining
tunnels of Colorado.
The outcrops of mineral-bearing Veins
or ledges are usually found on the steep,
rocky slopes of high mountains, sepa
rated by deep and great gulches or ra
vines. As the veins usually dip Into
the solid Interior of the mountains,
shafts are sunk either on the veins
themselves, ore being taken out as the
process goes on, or In Buch proximity

J gether, whatever may happen.
to the veins that thoy can be reached
from the shafts by drifts or levels
(which aro really side tunnels from tho
shafts) and tho ore stoped out and con
veyed In small ore wagons along such
drifts or levels to tho shaft, hoisted to
tho surface, and thence lowered down
the steep mountain-side to the nearest
wagon road leading to the mill or rail
road. As the shafts are frequently
hundreds of feet deep, and tho mouths
of tho shafts frequently hundreds, If
not thousands of feet above tho bot
tom .of the adjoining gulch or valley,
the ore has to bo hoisted by steam
power to tho surface (such steam pow
er Involving the conveyance of fuel
from tho valley to tho shaft house),
and from the mouth of the pumping
plants, In addition to the cost of hoist
ing the ore and subsequently getting It
down the steep hillside.
The expense of pumping, hoisting and
hauling seriously reduces the margin
of profit and In some cases extinguishes
it altogether.
It Is obvious that under tho above
circumstances, through a tunnel driven
Into the mountain and reaching the ore
bodies at a low level say from the
level of the bottom of tho adjoining
gulch not only can the ore be extract
ed from below and taken out almost
by natural gravity or tho minimum
of power, thereby saving the expense
of hoisting and subsequent conveying
down the steep hillside, but also drain
age can be had by natural gravity,
thereby dispensing with the expensive
pumping plants, costly fuel, wages of
engineers, etc.

troubles. So tho womb, like tho blad

If not doctored too much Is not liable
to weakness or disease, except In rnro
cases. It Is situated back of and very
