A SON WEALTH By KEITH GORDON CwiKht, 1904, b, T. ( AlrClur, o At rtrst it was merely the rumor of a rumqr, then it became an authenticat *d report, and last the town, or at least that part of It which considered itself Indubitably "upper crust," thrilled with the knowledge that Hemingway Trent was to spend a month with his aunt, Mrs. Ordway. Set down in black and white, this fact appears insignificant, but Just think a moment and repeat the name over and over to yourself "Trent, Trent" and you will doubtless begin to thrill, for the name of Trent Is known wherever pickles are eaten or money spent. It is only fair to the present Trents to explain that It Is a far cry from the original pickle, or, rather, from the little patch of ground ou the edge of a young city where that first pickle, that Alad din's lamp of a pickle, grew to the present representatives of the family. Hemingway, the future head of the Trent family, aged twenty-six, was coming to Carrlston for a visit. A blaze of interest sprang up in anxious mother hearts at first rumor of this fact, and, though they guarded eye and lip, some sparks ticw and little ad ditional fires sprang up In the hearts of marriageable daughters. Finally the air became surcharged. Adamantine father hearts gave signs of emotion, a restlessness, a critical, lingering sur vey of daughterly charms. Several rush orders for gowns of more than ordinary beauty were sent scurrying across the continent. And It was slg nlficant that this tinery to come was never mentioned, not even between the best of friends. Amid all the intense, subdued fiur ry of preparation there was one family that remained serene. Mr. and Mrs. Barry of Barrydene went their elegant, lauguld way, undlstracted and unmov ed, though they, too, had a marriagea ble daughter. The way of the Barrys had long since ceased to be affluent. If the Hemingways, for whom Trent was named, had left . ramshackle shanty far behind them the Barrys, ou the oth *»r hand, had come from a rare old co lonial mansion that overlooked the riv er Severn. The only difference be tween them was that they had started at different ends of the chain. Still, Brenda Barry, only child and chief depository of the practical sense of the house of that name, was usually tilled with a tingling resentment when she heard of the enormous fortunes of the "new" people. Being a woman, she could not fail to feel the subtle tense ness in the social atmosphere, and for the same reason she Instinctively divin ed Its cause. And to suy tliut she was scornful but faintly expresses It. There was nothing about the good looking, athletic young fellow whom she met a week later to Justify that scorn. He was the usual thing—a very much washed, Immaculately dressed young rnau of the day, with a desire to please which was so apparent that Brenda had to goad herself into remern berlng how frightfully new and dls gustlngly rich he was. This attitude on the part of one whose head might well have been turned by the flattery and attention he was re ceiving on ail sides mollified her some what. Then by chance she happened to encounter a rather vindictive glance from Helen Carrlngton's violet eyes— Ht»W<ii whs wearing mi exquisitely hliii pie gown that had not seen the light before- and suddenly her own plan of action was clearly mapped out in her mind. "Too much soothing sirup," she re flected ironically. "What he needs Is a tonic." This mental coinmeut of hers may have had something to do with the delightful sense of refresh in*nt young Trent felt lu her presence. Shu asked him none of the usual ques tions with which the others had pes tered him until he wondered impa tiently if they had nothing to think about but him. indeed, she didn't seetn to be very clear as to his identity, so that he felt compelled to refer rather diffidently to the fact that ho was on to visit his aunt, Mrs. Ordway. Even then her face was impassive. "Hather a stunning girl, that Miss Barry," he remarked to his aunt the next day on their drive as she pointed Barrydene to him, while he noted with Interest Its picturesque decay. The stucco house was a beautiful soft gray, and what had once been a gar den after the Italian manner was now overgrown and neglected, yet full of wistful beauty. Near a corner of the house he caught the gleam of a light gown and energetically tried by means of hypnotic suggestion to cause his aunt to stop, but she sat placidly be side him, utterly unaware that tho cas tl« of her mind was being assaulted. Trent reasoned that if you pass a person's house often enough you are pretty sure to meet that person. On tbe tldrd successive morning that he passed Barrydene she came through the gate In the neglected hedge Just us his horse Jogged slowly by. She wore a short pink gown, with sleeves turned back and collar turned in.and In her hutid she carried what appeared to be a wet napkin. She greeted him with a negligent nod, put ting him still further at ease by her Inquiry. "Have you—l don't suppose you have but have you seen a small dog that looked as If he were sneaking fcway from home?" Trent was off his horse In a moment, while he assured her that, though he had encountered no sn<h animal, he was sure that he could find It should she command. She put away his offer. "Oh, he'll come back! Only he knows it's wrong and I like to be obeyed." "I'd obey in a Jiffy if you'd tell ma to come In," Trent ventured boldly. Miss Barry was all demureness for a moment, then a wicked gleam danced into eyes. 'Tome pray do," she Invited sweet ly. And a moment later he hud thsl his horse and was walking beside her up the graveled path where the grass grew unrebuked. Everywhere there was disorder, but It was of the pic torial sort that has an attraction all Its own. To Hemingway Trent, accus tomed to grounds that were bathed »nd shaved almost as regularly as their masters, it was oddly charming. Ills companion, however, noticing his mus ing, lingering gaze, construed In a dif ferent way. "i'ltles us, 1 suppose, because we haven't a head gardener and two or three assistants," she thought to her self resentfully. Thereupon she de cided to shock his sensibilities still more. "It's rather Informal, I know." she said glibly, "but I'm going light on with my work." And she led the way around to the rear of the house "Ifon see, i ve Just been (loin# h few of Uie small flue pieces myself; the China luau brings tlieui back streaked lu so many shades of pink and blue." She looked at lilin furtively, but it was evident he was thoroughly uiysti tied. She was obliged to be more ex pllelt "Washing, you know." she elaborat ed, pointing to an Indian basket heap ed with linen that st<««l on the grass. "Now just make yourself comfortable and talk to me while I work." And she proceeded rather ostentatiously to spread out some dainty handkerchiefs I and napkins on the adjoining rose bushes, while her caller looked on lu shocked, speechless amazement. "Oh, I say! You oughtn't to do this, >ou know. It's ridiculous, it's an out rage. (Jet a Chinaman who'll do the right thing. There must be one some where." Miss Harry became sweetly pensive. Kesignuient spoke from every line of her face. "There are some," she admitted, "but they charge, oh, fearfully!" Then, with hands locked behind her, she st<>od back and regarded the bushes where all the sweet rose faces were now hid den from the sun with a virtuous en thusiasm. "That saves papa as much as a dollar," she said proudly, "and . every little helps." Trent murmured something, he did not precisely know what, so busy he was trying to think what it must be like, the financial condition that made the saving of a dollar so great a thing. Uremia covertly watched him with fiendish delight, which was, it Is true, modified when she discovered that his surprise was changing Into a sort of awed admiration. Stlil she managed to convey to him before he took his dazed departure that she usually spent the early morning hours gardening, working In another pathetic reference their need of econ omy. Promptly the next morning Trent, clad In the most disreputable clothes he could procure, might have been seen hanging about the Barrydene hedges. When the daughter of the house finally made her appearance it was not so early, though, as he had been led to believe. He walked In bold ly, announcing with the simplicity of the early Trents the market garden ones that he'd come to help. Miss Barry's face turned a riotous red, and she tried to dissuade him, but for an hour or more he digged and delved at her side right sturdily. Once begun, there was no stopping him, and Carrls tou watched the disgraceful affair aghast. When later on the gardening led to the usual result Brenda looked him straight In the eye. "I fancy that I have angled for you ! Just as much as the others," she said breathlessly. But Hemingway Trent only laughed. "What difference so long as I like your bait?" he questioned.

OILS FROM FISH. j Valunble Theiimel ve», «h Are Alao Tlieir Byproduct*. The preparation of oil from aquatic animals for both medicinal and tech nical purposes Is of great Importance. I The principal oil producers are the 1 whales, porpoises, blacktlsh, seals, wal rus, menhaden, herring, cod, haddock, i pollock, hake, cusk, ling, shark, dogfish, I alligator and turtle. Various subsidiary products are ob ' tallied from these aquatic oils and form a source of considerable profit to the refiner. Among the more Important of these products may be noted the | following: At a low temperature there may be j separated from all varieties of aquatic ! oils a solid fat or grease known as "foots" or "stearin" which Is somewhat similar to the tallow obtained from sheep and oxen. It is used as a substl i tute for tallow from sheep and oxen In sizing varus, as emollient In leather dressing, et<\ By hleaehln# the oils a semisolid fat known as "sperm soap," "whale soap," "menhaden soap," etc., according to the variety of oil treated, Is produced. This material Is used In smearing sheep, washing fruit trees, soap manufacture, ete. By refining sperm oil spermaceti Is obtained, and this Is used principally In caudle inak lng, as an ointment for medicinal pur poses, for producing a polish on linen In laundering and for self lubricating cartridges. After the oil Is extracted the result ing scrap or refuse Is dried and sold as fertilizer The II a I it) lln > , A well known artist recently received a letter frpm a chap who has regularly made It a practice to borrow money of him. In this letter the chap who Is always In financial difficulties surpris ed his correspondent by saying: "This time I have decided to reverse the usual order of things, and, Instead of borrowing from you, I Inclose here i with SSO, which I am going to ask that you will lay aside for me for a rainy day." But the artist couldn't find any re i mlttance in the letter. He searched for • It on the tloor, under the table—ln fnct, everywhere he thought he might have dropped It. Then quite accidentally he i 1 turned over the sheet on which the let J ter was written and discovered this , postscript: i "I've just looked out of the window and find it's ralniug like the very i I deuce!"— Collier's. o =o Miss ■», lir ■ _ > If ami}! Escort Copyright, IVO4, by Olho BSSet*n t* 4 i Six shabbily dressed men lounged in front of the fashionable hotel. Five, evidently comrades, conferred together in low tones; then one approached the ilxth man, saying guardedly, "Are you one of usV" The man smiled half satirically. "Xaw; I'm de real ting, see?" His questioner turned away in dis gust The man laughed softly, the low, en joyable laugh of one who appreciates. A tall young woman whose attire evi denced wealth and refinement entered the hotel vestibule. One of the five groaned softly. "Who is she, Dyke?" eagerly ques tloned another. "Miss Kate Waring of Denver. Worth half a million and eccentric. Visiting Cousin Dorothy. And me in this beastly tramp's rig!" Miss Warlng's stately entrance into the great dining room was arrested by the head waiter. "This way, madam," courteously. "I will conduct you to the ladies' dining room." Miss Waring glanced about her. "It Is not necessary," calmly. "I will remain here." "Pardon me, madam, but ladles with out escorts are served In the room at the right. I w ill conduct madam"— Miss Warlng's calm glance survey ed the small crowded room at the right and then returned to the great, cool room in which she stood, with palms and ferns In profusion. She noted the many vacant tables and the number of ladles present. "I do not wish togo in there. I pre fer to have dinner served here," mak ing the statement tranquilly with the air of one accustomed to have defer ence accorded her slightest wish. "The rule Is Imperative, madam," with courteous firmness. "Ladies with out escort" — "Reserve that table by the window with the ferns beside it, the third on the left." And the graceful figure turned to tho outer door. There was no hesitancy in Miss War ing's voice or manner as she addressed the group of shabby men. "Will one of you gentlemen do me a favor?" clearly and unsmlllngly. Six shabby head coverings were off in an instant, and six more or less manly forms bent low before her. "Thank you all," gravely. "I want one of you to act as my escort and my guest, that I may be accorded the privi lege"—the scarlet lips curled a trlfie — "of having my dinner where I have chosen to have it.l will ask you, please," turning abruptly to the one who had designated himself as "de real ting." "Oh, but"— began one of the un chosen eagerly. Miss Waring's face and gesture for bade further words. "I thank you all for your courtesy. If this gentleman accepts" "It is a privilege, madam," bowing gravely. " 'De real ting,' is he?" cried Dyke vengefully when they were out of hear lug. "Did you observe his speech and that bow? lie's one of the fellows set to watch us!" "Nonsense, Dyke! There isn't a man in the class as old as he. He's seen actual tramping, I'll stake a thousand on it. Why didn't you tell Miss War ing who you are?" "Aren't we under oath not to dis close our identity?" demanded Dyke hotly. "Besides, look at me!" "I ordered a table reserved," said Miss Waring to"de real ting." "I see It- third on the left." lie led the way with easy grace, a light of amusement gleaming in his dark eyes at the evident consternation of the waiter, who hesitated sllgbtlj' before seating the serene young lady and her strange escort. Miss Waring ordered the dinner with precision and discrimination. "I hope," she remarked pleasantly when the waiter had gone—"l hope you approve my order." There was nut the slightest em bur rassment In her manner or condescen sion In her speech—the man was her guest. "The order is perfect, madam, and, permit me to say, admirably given." Miss Waring smiled. "Are all of Boston's"—she yaused for an Instant In search of a word that might not embarrass her guest "sub merged, such Chesterfields as the six to whom I spoke?" "The others are Harvard students." "Harvard students!" In momentary bewilderment. "Ob, 1 know. They are doing penance." "That Is the meaning, madam, though not the term they use." "Are you?" lightly, yet with an am lous tone in the low voice. "I am a genuine hobo." She passed her cardcase to him. "You should know who Is your host ess," graciously, "and I will ask the name of my guest." He took out two cards, writing on the back of one and returning It to her with the case. She glanced at the writing: JOHN LESTER. HOBO. NO ADDRESS. BORN IN BOSTON. "Thank you, Mr. I.ester. I hope you are us genuinely hungry as- as your professioiMvould Indicate." "I am, Jtlift Waring. I can do full Justice to the dinner you have ordered. You might remind me if if I forget anything. It's a long time since I have dined with ladies." The tone was serious, but there was a dancing light In the line eyes that Miss Waring caught, and she smiled sympathetically. There was but little conversation. Miss Waring was graciously courteous, as became a hostess, but even a dull man in Lester's pluce would not have presumed upon tin- situation. "1 thank you for your escort, Mr. Lester," said the girl dismissiugly as they passed out. "I am your debtor, Miss Waring," earnestly. "If 1 were not a hobo 1 would ask when and where I might pay my dinner call." A sudden Impulse prompted her re ply. "Tomorrow evening. My present ad dress Is on the card you have." In all her twenty live years Kate Waring had never before been so curi ous or so antlelpatlve. She smiled ap provtil at the curd lie sent up, a slip of paper with "John Lester" Ijoldly writ ten.

"It is now that I am the Imitation, Miss Waring The clothes are hired for the occasion." She held out her hand cordially. "Consider yourself welcomed, Mr. Les ter, and allow me to say that the clothes are very becoming." lie flushed boyishly. "It's live years since I've worn a rig like tills 1 hardly knew how to put It on." Miss Waring led the conversation to topics of interest to a man of edu cation and refinement—books, music, the drama finding her companion con versant with the best. "Will you tell me something of your self" she asked presently—"why you are a a wanderer and how you live? Even a traveler must eat, 1 suppose." lie hesitated but an Instant. "I have tramped for live years. I work awhile in a place till the devil drives me on again the devil of my conscience 1 suppose It will yet drive me back to" his face grew grave and his voice harsh, but he kept stoical ly on"to Denver, where I am wanted for the murder of Manuel Laredo, a Mexican, whom I killed on Starbrlght ranch." She rose excitedly. "I bought Starbrtght ranch last year. Manuel Laredo is among the workmen there!" He sprang to his feet, his face aglow, his eyes filled with sudden joy. "He did not die, and I am not"— Then his face paled again. "I forgot," hoarsely, "there may be a dozen Manuel Laredos; those Mexican names"— "It is the same man," she interrupted positively. "I have heard the story and Been the scar of the bullet on his cheek." She talked on, waiting for him to regain control of himself. "We should be friends, Mr. lister. Royal Thornton is my stepbrother. I have often heard him speak of the trip abroad that you two made together years ago. I know now why your name seemed so familiar. Will you go back to Colorado?" He took her outstretched hand in both his own. "As your escort, Miss Waring?" She smiled assent, Hushing beauti fully. Hack to the Old llHtiona.

The history of the Issue of coins In this country by private individuals and companies would make a very Interest ing book. When golil was struck in North Carolina a man named Bechtler | Malted a mint of his own there, which i | was abolished by law In IN4W. llalf eagles, quarter eagles and one dollar ' pieces issued by him were largely clr | culated In the south and west. Al | though of honest gold, they were about !iy a per cent under value on an average. About the same time Templeton Reid coined gold In Georgia. He moved to California In 18-1 It and minted eagles and twenty live dollar pieces on a con slderable scale. Many companies and refineries In California and elsewhere made a business of striking gold coins during the same period. Naturally there was a great temptation to make these coins under weight and of In ferior fineness. The Mormons in Utah Issued eagles, half eagles and double eagles which bore on the obverse an eye, with the legend, "Holiness to the Lord." Quantities of twenty-five cent and fifty cent gold pieces were likewise manufactured at Sail Francisco, the former containing only about six cents' worth of tlie metal and the latter twelve cents' worth. Years ago a lot of these were taken over fo Germany , and circulated there, which elicited a formal diplomatic protest from that government The private minting busi ness was finally stopped.
