From the Wilkesbarre Record.
Whatever may be the result of the
Quay trial, one thing that has hereto
fore been unexplained has been made
perfectly clear, viz.: The reason for
keeping large balances of state funds
in favored banks while the appropria
tions to the public schools and charit
able Institutions, and the personal i
property tax due the counties, remained
unpaid. The books of the People's bank i
show that one state treasurer received '
more than $30,000 from that bank as (
interest on state funds, and he only |
received a portion of the interest, at I
that. Other state treasurers also re- |
ceived large sums as interest. It would [
he interesting to know how many more *
of the banks that held large deposits
of the statu funds paid Interest to the s
state treasurers and other politicians. |
The People's could pay $30,000. There i
were half a dozen other banks that had N
state funds in sums nearly as large, t
and if all of them were made to sweat c
in the same proportion a sum running
high up Into the hundreds of thousands }
must have been gathered in by the ;
state treasury ring during the past ten t
or twelve years.
The late Treasurer Haywood, as well 1
as his predecessors, constantly kept 1
anywhere from $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 I
in favored banks, usually in sums rang- '
ing from $200,000 to SOOO,OOO. Those I
who felt sufficiently interested in the '
matter to examine the statements 1
periodically published by the state treas
urer probably wondered why the sums
on deposit in some half a dozen banks
remained practically stationary from
one year to another. The People's bank
of Philadelphia was one of them, and ii
had for years from $500,000 to SOOO,OOO,
and even though school districts were
compelled to borrow money at the rate
of 6 per cent, because they could not
get the state appropriation, the hall
million or more in the People's bank |
remained undisturbed. The bank was
paying Interest on the money, too, but
not a cent of it went into the state
treasury; it was divided up among the
members of the treasury ring, except
when the state's money was loaned to
them, without interest, to speculate
with.
Yes, the rovelations made by the
books of the People's bank show very
clearly and conclusively why school
and other appropriations remained un
paid for months, and sometimes a year,
after they were due. The banks that
had the money were paying interest on
it for the personal enrichment of state
treasurers and members of the treasury
ring. For years it was very generally
believed that such methods were in
vogue in the treasury department. Mr.
Darlington, the president of the defunct
Chester Trust Company, threw some i
light on the subject, but it remained
for the books of the collapsed People's
bank of Philadelphia to lay boar the
infamous methods that have been
practiced in all their enormity. This
has doubtless been going on for a quar
ter of a century, but did not reach its
fullest proportions of rottenness until
the present Quay machine developed it.
And now the exposure has come, as was
certain it would, sooner or later. The
Quay trial will accomplish something in
the direction of reform.

MRS. TRIPODS TROUBLES.
; Tlie Wife of an Amateur Photographer
Write* an Opeu Letter.
Prom the Detroit Free Press.
Gentlemen. —A letter from you ad- I
dressed to my husband has come to ,
hand. You ask him to write an article
for your "Photographic Annual' 1 that is
to be published next year; and you put in
some taffy about his being a well-known j
amateur, and some stuff about what he j
writes being of interest, and that sort of J
thing. My husband is now on a photog- j
rapiling tour, as he calls It, and <f
course 1 open all his letters. It Is not '
likely he will be back in time to write
the article you wish. When he goes off
with that confounded camera of his you ;
never know when he will come home, j
So 1 am very pleased to give you u ,
woman's view of amateur photography. ;
and you can print it in your "Annual" |
if you like.
My unfortunate husband was stricken j
with the amateur photography plague
about three years ago. Up to that time
I always considered him reasonably J
sane. I made no objection, at the time, j
to his joining the army of photographic j
cranks, because, you see, I knew nothing ;
of the subject. I have done everything '
I could, since that time, but. although j
lie has quit smoking at my request, lie
refuses to give up the camera habit. I
At the time be began Ills so-called recrea- j
tion uiy house, or perhaps 1 should say
our house, was one of the neatest in the j
neighborhood. You ought to go through
it now. My carpets have been ruined I
with the abominal chemicals lie uses. 1 J
don't pretent to know their names, but I
know the effect they have. Then the !
bath-room is something frightful t<. 1
behold. He uses that for what he calls
his dark-room and has contrivances for
shutting out the light.
1 noticed that in one of the books you j
sent him, Daguerre was the inventor of
photography. He may have been the j
inventor of photography, but I think it
was another sulphurous gentleman, with
the same Initial, who was the inventor
of amateur photography.
My husband was reasonably good-tem
pered until he took up your diabolical
art. I one time opened the door of the j
room in which ho was working. It was
ail dark inside except a fearful rod !
lamp, which threw a ruddy glow on his j
face and made him look as if he were
going to have a epileptic fit. The mo
ment I opened the door that man went
perfectly crazy. He said I had spoiled
a dozen of his plates, although I had
touched nothing, and I came near suing
for a divorce because of his awful re
marks. If the evil one was not the in
ventor of amateur photography, then 1
should like to know who was.
The pictures my husband does turn
out are perfectly awful. lie lias tried,
at different times, to photograph the
children; but the poor little dears looked
like wooden images, in the pietiirnrs. 1 i
went into the bath-room once, with the i
baby, and put him in tlie bath-tub. I
There was some water there alroady,
and it looked clear enough, but in it was
some horrible solution of silver that
turned most of the baby jet black, and
we haven't been able to get the color
out to this day.
Then the cost of the thing is some
thing frightful, although my husband
carefully conceals what he spends on It.
I came across one of the photographic
dealer s bills the other day. and it was
enough to make one's hair stand on end.
Pyrogallic acid, whatever that is, was
50 cents an ounce.
.lust think, if I had to pay that price
for sugar it would be $8 a pound, in
stead of 10 cents!
Fifty cents an ounce! And that
wasn't the worst of it.. Now what do
you think chloride of gold costs? For
fifteen grains lie is charged 50 cents.
Now that, as you know, is nearly S2O an
ounce, over SSOO a pound! 1 don't
know how many pounds of the wretched
stuff ho uses every week, but if he. uses
ten pounds of it. and I am sure ten pounds
of sugar doesn't go very far in a house
with a large family like ours, you see
that is s.'i,ooo for that one thing alone,
not to mention the dozen of other chemi
cals he uses; and I am sure I don't know
what the price of them is.
I tfell you amateur photography was
. invented to drive a poor woman crazy,
who has a husband who is a victim of ;
the villainous practice. No wonder he
says he can't afford a now dross for me.
when I ask him for it. The house is
stained with horrible solutions from
cellar to parrot, and I am always afraid
to use any cups or glasses for fear there
are some dreadful poison in them. The
cat took some milk out of a saucer that
had something or other of potassium in
it, and it just curled lip and died.
I am always afraid to sweep, in any
part of the house, for fear it will raise a
dust that will spoil something that lie
Ims tacked up on a board to dry. I
wouldn't mind all this if he ever took a
picture that was worth looking at: but,
as I said before, he never does. There,
now. print that in your miserable pho
tograph book, if you want to.
Mrs. John Tripod.
: N. B.—lf you ever write to my hus
band telling him his articles on photog
j raphy will he appreciated, I will burn
! your letter, and you will lose your post
age stamp. So just remember that.

The stories that gold miners tel.
when they are in the mood are as thril
ling as a romance. Superstition enter,
largely into a majority of the storiei
one hears about a eumplire, but thej
are generally founded uu facts, how
ever wonderful they may seem. Th
pure luck that attends the finding ol
enormous wealth Is an exbaustlesf
subject for discussion.
The rich Tlldeu mine in Alpint
county, Cal., was found in a curious
way. Sheriff .lames W. Carter ami
two men had gone over the mountains
after two men who had murdered a
sheep herder. The region is as lonely ;
as any among the Sierras. The time
was March, 1577. The Sheriff and his
companions were in the saddle foul
days, and when they were well u[
among the mountains the trail of tin
fugitive murderers became obliterated !
They got out of their saddles anil made
themselves as comfortable for tin
night as possible in their blankets or j
the ground. The next morniug the
trio set about to find seme tracks thai
would give them a clue to the fugitives j
trail. The Sheriff aad his companions;
went about searching for hours aluiosl \
on their hands and knees. While thui!
engaged Sheriff Carter picked nf I
among the mausanita chaparral a piece j
of live rock. Having been a miner he
put the chunk into his pocket, just as
lie had done before times without
number. The search for the trail ol
the murderers was finally abandonee
and the Sheriff and his assistants
went home.
A day or two later Sheriff Cartel '
came across the hi! of live rock he lino
found up among the mountains. lie
got out a magnifying glass and was
astonished to see traces of golo
everywhere in it. He started up Hit
mountains immediately, and. employ !
ing an experienced prospector, a searcl
that lasted three months was begun foi
the ledge from which the float rock
lind been detached. It happened tlmi
the very day that the Sheriff and his
companions set out to follow the fugi j
tive murderers was the one on whirl j
the Electoral Commission in Washing I
ton decided the Presidential contesi
against Samuel J. Tlldeu—March 2 !
1577. Sheriff Carter was an ardent 1
Democrat and he named his mine tin
Tllden. It was a good gold produce) i
for a dozen years, but the Sheriff uevei |
profited much by the tells of thousands j
of dollars It yielded. lie wAs harassed !
by lawsuits and iu one year be spent

Tbe Corona group of gold mines or
the Colorado River north of Yuma
Ariwas accidentally discovered lij
an emigrant going in a prarie schoonei
with his family to Los Angeles flop
Texaß. These are among the best ol
so called desert mines In the I'nitec
States. C. P. Lane, the millionaire gob ,
miner of Sail Francisco, who gavs
$75,000 to the Bryau campaign fund ii
1890, owns two-thirds of the Corotis j
mines and gets a monthly revenue ol
$22,000 or $30,000 from them. Tin
Texau, who was named (Jeorge Harris
camped one night iu the fall of 188S!
ou the west hank of the Coloradc
ltiver, before starting to cross tin'
sandy waste known as tbe Colored)
desert. He built a tire, aud wbile lib j
wife busied herself with the meal In
lay on the ground near the wagon am: j
Idly looked at the queer pinkish loci
formation elose be. Ide him. He though ;
the roek had a trace of gold, but was'
not sure enough of it to give the matte]
much study. However, he whackec
off a few pieces of roek and threw
tlicm into the wagon. A friend who iiac
been iu gold camps for years was call
ing at Harris's home in Los Angeles t
few weeks later. The conversatioi
turned to gohl uu.l silver mining, anc
some one happened to speak of tin
curious rock on ihe Colorado River \
The specimens were limited up In tin
back yard and shown the caller.
"These are greai specimens of low
grade ore." said the caller.
The specimens were assayed as re
fractory ore that ran frow S3O to SSO i
ton. (Jeorge Harris lmd liltlo faitt
that the mines would be worth devel
opulent, and he gladly and quickly
scld what title lie had in them for t
few hundred dollars. The property
was bought in 1893 for $70,000 and i
small fortune vrus spent in the devel
opraent of the refractory lodge unti i
it began to pay its way. ' When it die I
the returns from the smelters ran m
Into thousands of dollars.
A common topic in groups of golt
miners is the fatnlity that spoms to at
tacli In successful gold miners. Tin
more successful the miner the moid
closely docs a grim fate seem to stall
behind him. So many eases of vlolcn
death among rich gold miners may in
cited, that Ihe superstition seenis b
have more or a basis of fact behind i
than Is eonmion with sueli notions. ;

For years thin man was a rough
Westerner, tolling with brain a nil
muscles for a fortune. He made a big
one and after he had shown his fam
ily ail the principal cities of the coun j

His children are highly educated and
of line social standing, but his trays !
and ideas were fixed when he settled i
down to a questionable enjoyment of
his remaining years.
He has away of referring every
thing perplexing to his lawyer, whom
he hires by the year, so that there may
be some understanding as to terms.
The other day the old gentleman se
cured an audience with his legal ad t

"What kind of feller is that Blank?" '
lie inquired. Kind of durned fool hain't
he?"
"He's regarded as one of our most :

"Well I hope so. but I tell you he j
hain't got the sancl. He's been sbinin. j

After the lawyer had drawn on his ,
social code for the benefit of his client, 1

at himself and went out to look for a

Not Married Yet.
1 rode up to a country store, where a
young girl stood on the porch swing
ing a sunbonnet aud talking to a
mountaineer. 1 had left lier in that
position a year before, aud her father ■
had told me then his daughter and the !
mountaineer would soon be married, j
Talking to the father a few minutes
later, i asked:
"Is your daughter married yet?" '
"Naw, an' I don't think she will be." j
"What is the trouble? I saw her talk
ing to her lover just now."
"Yaas—she don't do much else. Tliet i

Foremost in the rauks of the world's

| Paraf, a native of Alsace, handsome

keen intelligence anu ready wit, as wel.
manly qualities. Lie was remarkably

ine delight in the study In his youth
I ami following his early education witl
a series of chemical experiments in
his own laboratory. After lie left
; school he set out upon his travels, and
: having exhausted the funds allowec
hi in by his father iu profligate expend!
ture he found himself stranded iu
i Glasgow. This incident may be Hair.
! to have launched the clever young fel
I low upon tlie career he afterward pur
sued to his eventual disgrace and
i downfall. He engaged the most elegant
1 suite of rooms iu the most fashionable
I hotel, visited a firm of wealthy mauu
facturers and announced himself as
, the discoverer of a new and cheap dyt
1 for calico printing. Plunging into flic
; laboratory of the establishment tht
brilliant young fellow actually succeed
ed in supporting his assertions and
1 was rewarded with £4,000 in gold foi
j the right to the use of his new coloring
i process. This sum was soon dissipa
ted Hi new extravagances, and. agate
j reduced to sore straits, he compounded
, a new color and sold the secret of tht
dye to his uncle a rich manufacture!
in Paris, for 50,000 francs,
i Before this sum was entirely scat
: tared to the winds he landed in New
! York, made himself known as a cilstin
| guished chemist and cleared S6O,OQC
I by the sale of a new "aualinS black,'
succeeding iu escaping with his spoils
! before the real owner and patentee o(
I the process arrived to dispute hii
j claims. He next swindled Govoruoi

I eighteen months that elasped before
j the bubble burst is kuowu to have in
curred expenses exceeding SIOO,OOO
; contracting large pecuniary obligations
1 of ready money, in addition to his out
lay. He next invented oleomargarine
and contrived to organize a stock com
pan.v with a capital of $500,000 for it*
manufacture. Investigation proved
that he had only worked out the idea
of the Parisian, Mege Mouriez, the
1 original inventor of the process, lut
j then Paraf's American company dis
! patched a son of Professor Doremus tc
Paris to save its own standing by the
purchase of the American right, whicL
which was obtained for SIO,OOO,
Paraf, still a shareholder, next won!
, to San Francisco to dispose of tin
right to manufacture oleomargarine ii !
1 California, and to superintend the erec
fion of works. During his absence the
old company in New York collapsed
and a new one was founded, from
which Farnf was excluded. Paraf then
disappeared from San Francisco, when
I his career had been marked by tht
I same lavish style of living, and wa?
next heard from la Santiago, Chili. lit
was accompanied by his pretended ser
vaut. Francisco Hogel. who afterward
turned out to lie a skilled chemist, and
aided and abetted by this clever ac
complice he launched upon the unsu
; spectiug Chilians the most flagrant
swindle kuown in history. Presenting
himself to tin* highest officials and so
cial leaders of the South American re
public, ingratiating himself wifh then;
by means of his accomplished manner*
and brilliant intellect, lie confided tt
1 them the wonderful intelligence thai
j be was the discoverer of a process bj
which th< dreams of the ancient alche
mists could be realized and the bas
metals be transmuted into gold. A
j series of experiments, which PnraJ
j knew so well how to conduct, persua
! ded theui of the truth of liis .claims
and they zealously embarked upon tin
great enterprise. Smelting works wen
built and preliminary experiments re
! suited in a yield of SIB,OOO worth 01
gold from a single ton of low-gradeeop
per ore. The company's stock ran up t(
fabuldus prices. Shares, the par valui
of which was SI,OOO, sold at SI4,(H)(
I apiece. Paraf. disposing of his owr
1 stock when the excitement ran high
est, is estimated to have placed $5,000.

escape from the country a little toe
long. A director of the company, hav
ing his suspicions aroused, conducted
some private experiments in the smelt
ing works during the absence of Parni
and Rogel, and the discovery wnt
made that all the gold recovered ha<
