The Baltimore and Ohio South West
ern Railroad placed in service several
months ago five large ten wheel com
pound passenger engines for use on fast
trains between Cincinnati and St. Rouis.
The performance of these engines has
been eminently satisfactory and up to
the highest expectation.
The same line has also in service 50
Consolidation compound freight engines
which provide ample power for the
entire line in addition to what was al
ready in use. The compound engines
were an experiment but hard service
has proved that they are entirely suc
cessful and show a saving of 10 per
cent, in fuel as compared with simple
engines of the same type. Exhaustive
tests were made with both the simple
and compound locomotives before the
order for the entire lot was placed with
the result vastly in favor of the com
pound locomotives.

Richest Gold Mine In the World.
The Band Barton and Albion gold j
mine, under the town of Ballarat, In j
Australia, has yielded more than fifty j
millions as the value of ita output of !
gold since it was discovered about thir- |
ty years ago. It is the most productive !
gold mine yet known. Its supply of i
paying quartz seems practically inex
haustible, and as the vein is extensive,
being spread over much territory, the
mine bids fair to last for centuries. The
work in the Ballarat gold mine is said
to be much safer as well as more com
fortable than that of the workers In
a coal mine. At Ballarat there are no
noxious gases and no danger from ex- j
plosions. Air is forced Into the work- j
ings through various shafts. In the |
Transvaal rich and regular deposits!
were discovered in 1886 in the Witwa- j
tersrand. The reefs are estimated to !
contain nearly 100,000,000 tons of ore, I
the gold of which is said to be worth !
£45,000,000. From eighty to a hun- I
dred years must elapse before the field
Is worked out.

Not actuated by remorse, but by pure
philanthropy, Jim Jenkins, hunter ol
outlaws, has concluded to devote all
his money to the maintenance of a
home for the orphans and widows of
men he has run to earth, in particular,
and of criminals of the great South
j west In general. Jim Jenkins, now of
Kansas, is now 65 years old and has
j spent forty years as a scout and hunt
! er of bandits and train robbers. In this
] way he has made about $50,000. Among
| the distinguished outlaws he has
i chased were Jesse James and his broth
er, Bob Ford, Bill Dalton and Bill
Cook, while he wns the leader of the
band that caught Cherokee Bill in 1595.
In the Dalton raid in Coffeyville, Kas.,
Jenkins was shot eight times. He esti

•'GANCWAVI"
A New War Cry liaised bj Oar Men In
the Philippines.
The Manila correspondent of Col
lier's Weekly, writes as follows: The
enemy were invisible and shooting.
That made it necessary for Uncle
Sam's troopers to go on until they got
near enough to get a good close view
of the little brown enemy. And they
did it with splendid spirit, rushing,
shooting, cheering and laughing. Two
companies of Cook's battalion of the
Third were ordered to the left of the
railroad, while the other two com
panies, under Captain Cook, kept to
the right of the track. AlHfour of the
companies were made up* mainly of
"rookies," ns recuits are called, but
they made up in spirit what they
lacked in effective drill.
As the two companies to the left of
the track, under Captain Day and
Lieutenant Hannay, got their first
glimpse of the shooting enemy their
officers shouted out to steady their
commauds. It was unnecessary. One
tall rooky, who was the first to catch
sight of the heads of the mass of Fili
pinos ahead, yolled'gloefully: "Gang
way!" With one accord the two com
panies took up the ory of "Gangway 1"
and on they rushed. It was their
slogan. They kept it up until they
reached the thrown-np dirt of the
trench and saw the Filipinos, now an
irregular mass, fleeing a hundred
yards ahead of them. The Filipinos
gained another trench, but "Gang
way!" was the battle cry that drove
them out of it. It was the same with
the third line of trenches. Parenthet
ically, it is understood, of course,
that our boys shot off something be
sides "Gangway!" Dead and wound
ed Filipinos strowed the ground and
filled the trenches. Our losses all
along the line that day were tri
fling by comparison. Day's and Han
ney's oompauies, for instance, which
suffered rather more than the average
losses, had five men killed and eleven
wounded.
But that cry of "Gangway!" is fam
ous over in the Filipinos lines. In
surgents who have been brought in
either wounded or prisoners have in
quired eagerly the meaning and po
tenoy of that mysterious Yankee word
which invariably preceded a Filipino
retreat. Aud so the Third has con
tributed auothar famous word to the
technical slang of the American sol
dier.
Indian Village Lout.
Historians aro at a loss to account
for the apparent rnins of an Indian
village in Silver Creek Township,
Miohigan, about half a mile west of
Indiau Lake. In 1843, when William
Gilbert, one of the wealthiest farmers
iu this section, built his house in this
locality, he built upon the ruins of
what had evidently been a church. In
fact, settlers iu the twenties claim to
have attended churoh there, the ser
vice being conduoted by a priost from
Bertraud or Notre Dame.
Other old settlers state that in the
early thirties one Slater taught school
there, later going to the vicinity of
Yankee Springs and continuing thut
occupation there. The fact of its be
ing a schoolhouse would not preclude
its being used occasionally as a
church, aud there are in oxisteuce in
this city records of baptism of Indian
children at the "Church of the Indian
Village."
On this same farm were ruins of
nine sugar camps, each about twelve
by sixteen in size, with holes bored
in a log at the back, iu which sticks
had been driven on which to make
their beds. Copper kettles were used,
and copper kuives, nails and hatchets,
of poor temper, have been plowed up
there. There is not an Indian in this
vicinity who knows anything about
this church or school, yet the evi
dence that one did exist ,is indisputa
ble.
Indian Lako was named from the
fact that thiH locality was tho favorite
resort of the Indians iu the maple
sugar seasou.—Detroit News.
Dentlßt Tells l>y Sign*.
A peculiar actual or imagined cor
respondence bus been developed be
tween physical acts and mental atti
tudes. The elocutionist declares that
the sledgehammer gesture indicates
emphasis and the bauds opened with
an outward spread of the arms candor.
The student of haudwritiug assures
you that the up curl at tho end of n
word indicates a hopeful mood and
the droop a despondent one; that it
the handwritiug begins boldly and
ends iu smaller characters a weak will
is indicated, and vice verna. Curly
hair is supposed to imply a quick
temper, and the dentists will tell you
that the teeth of the curly haired man
pull hard.
"I can tell as far as I see a man,"
one of them remarked, "wlietkoi
his teeth will bo difficult to pull. If
he has a bull neck and curly hair, you
will need your strongest forceps.
Somehow the roots curl themselves
up in the bony tissue of the jaw iu as
much of a tangle as tho hair itself."—

lUtR an<l Trap Swallowed by h Snake.
A remarkable snako story that is
vouched for by the family of Charlos
Braddock, Sr., of Shamong Township,
N. J., is told by John Dellett, the
hired man.
Dellett went to the barn tho other
day to milk the cows. Upon entering
one of the stalls he saw a large white
throated blacksnake. It was curled
up iuan apparently comfortable posi
tion, aud it was noticed that a rat's
tail was hanging from its mouth.
Dellett summoned Mr. Braddock anil
other members of his family. At
iirst tho men arranged to give battle
to tho reptile, when it was found to
be dead. Au examination showed
that in its hunger aud greed to get
the rats, three in number, the snake
had swallowed the trap aud all. This
caused ita death.
INEWS AND NOTESI
I FOR WOMEN. I
M3K^oie!@iofof<?feKNeN3<G4eieiefe(eieioie<eieie<el(
The Ideal Motlier.
She never describes her aches and
pains.
She never dwells on unpleasant
reminiscences.
She is never a martyr.
Sho never corrects tho children in
the presence of any one.
She lets everyone have affairs of his
or her own.
She is always polite and cordial to
the children's friends.—Philadelphia
Record.
Keep Up the Diary.
A thoughtful woman says that the
"journal habit" should be discouraged
iu young girls, as writing down the
thoughts, feelings and impressions of
immaturity and inexperience tends to
tho development of self-consciousness
and introspection at a time when they
cau do more harm than good. A diary,
however, is u different matter, and
should be encouraged, as it may bo of
value iu after years, in its record of
dates aud happenings.
Female Nimrotls.
Lady Hopetoun, wifo of the Lord
Chamberlain, is one of the cleverest
of a galaxy of female Nimrods, whioh
includes Lady Sandhurst, Lady
Beaumont and the Duchess of Bed
ford, and she can bring down any
thing from a partridge to a stag as
skillfully as cau most men. Iu Aus
tralia she used to practice regularly at
the rifle range, and her score of
"bulls" was the envy of mauy men
shooters. Deer stalking is her favor
ite relaxation, and many a line buck
has fallen to her gun.
The Revival of Coral.
Coral beads used to be considered
tho correct and necessary thing to
wear, with muslin gowns and other
pretty, old-fashioned toilets appro
priated by the present fashion.
Perhaps, also, if there be one color
in jewelry ns to the beauty of whioh
all tastes, from tho least cultivated to
that of the conuoisseur, accord, it is
for red in its various tones. Its re
vival began in the favorite old form of
beads. It has found its best field
again in the fashionable long chains,
aud it is in this line that jewelers
make their priuoipal display. Next
to chains in extent of display come
brooches aud .pins. A dainty now
fancy noted is the combination of
pearls and coral in one or two fine
brooohes, the design being a cresoent
inclosing a star. An establishment
catering to the finest trade reports
coral unequivocally as "coming in,"
and displays a variety of chains and
some new designs in pins and brooches.
Commonplace Girls.
The brilliant and unusual girl gets
more than her meed of praise, but we
just go on loving the commonplaoe
girl for the nice little part she plays
in life and seldom think of telling her
what we do. And the commonplace
girl is so apt to underestimate her
worth. You know that time and again
she has come to you for comfort be
cause sho declared she was such a
social failure, such a commonplace
mortal.
My dear littlo commonplace girl, it
is the commonplace men and women
who make up tho greater part of the
world, aud it- is tho commonplace men
end women who attend to the small
hut necossary matters that go to make
hp the great sum total of our lives and
)he world's affaii-3 generally. The
geniuses are too busy to look nfter
imall matters, and, besides, the goni
nses are so few! Maybe out of a
thousand folk there will be but one
auusual one. The balanco aro just
sommonplace.
Tho commonplace woman is not tho
Inferior woman. The oommonplaco
woman comes just up to the accepted
standard of what a woman should be,
when all is said aud done. Each of us
may have an ideal, but we are all quite
conscious that in some way, as time
has passed on into eternity and Mother
Eve's daughters have lived and loved
aud worked and smiled, a standard
has been fixed. To sink below it is
sadly disappointing to those who look
for all that is best in womanhood; to
rise above it puts one in the ranks of
the unusual. Our greatness or our
inferiority, as men and women, only
stands out prominently because there
is a standard.—Philadelphia Inquirer.
Mow to Take Care or Pearls.
Pearls nre undoubtedly one of the
most beautiful of precious stones, aud
thoso persons who are fortunate pos
sessors of them have, doubtless, been
puzzled many a time as to tho beat
way of keeping them nice,
A good way of brightening up the
oppearanoe of pearls is to wash them
in soap and water, that is, if they are
what is known as "whole" pearls.
But should thoy bo only half pearls,
tho greatest care must be exercised iu
keeping them out of water, as this
fluid nffects their color and lustre,
and in time causes them to becomo
quite black.
People who possess a ring or brooch
that consist of half pearls find it a
most difficult matter to clean them.
When they look dirty, just take a dry,
clean leather and polish thorn, and
then that being done take a ■ jft brush
nnd go gently over the settings, and
yon will be surprised at the incrensed
lustre and clean look which this sim
plo process has given to the pearls.
Pearls are valued accordiug to their
color and lustro, and so, if the color
fades, so does tho value, and pearls
that are kept lockod up for any longth
of time lose their color entirely. The
wenariug of pearls do them far more
good, nnd tho great pity is that some
poople who have in their possession
penrl necklaces and rings never allow
them to see daylight, but keep them
looked away in a jewel case, and thus
the color aud the value of tho pearls
are ruined. Pearls should never be
kept looked up for more than a week
at a stretch, aud if possible they
should be worn evory day, and in the
end you will be rewarded by seeing
how much handsomer they havo be
come through oontact with the fresh
air.—Woman's Life.
Tlie Woman of the Angeltis.
Barbizon, a little village in the midst
of the forest of Foutainebleau, a short
distance from Paris, has become a goal
of pilgrimage for many admirers of
Millet's work, and particularly for
those who know that the woman who
suggested to the great painter his fa
mous picture of "The Angelus" still
lives there iu a little cottage a stoue's
throw from where she was born. Mere
Adele's homo is a small vineclad cot
tage, in which she lives a frugal but
comfortable life, troubled only by the
orerinquisitivo tourists aud by her
rheumatism. She must have been an
attraotivo woman once, for even now,
although she has witnessed tho pass
ing of more than threescore years aud
teu, thero are traces of former beauty
iu hor wrinkled face.
Mere Adele is a lady, though she has
worn her fingers blunt by toil, aud her
form is bent uuder the burdens she
has had to bear. When sho looks at
you her smile is like abauedition, and
the beantiful things of earth are not
lost upon her. Her manner is cheer
ful, as one who feels she has not lived
in vain. If questioned closely she will
tell you of tho day when the great
artist came through the dense forest
with his wife and children, leaving be
hind him the gay city of Paris with its
schools of painting and its models.
She knows u great deal of the very
hard days whioh followed for Jeau
Franoois Millet—the toil, the anxiety,
the disappointments. She nursed his
five children, aud did the little field
work iu the garden adjoining the cot
tage. When he saw his nurse-girl,
Adele, and her father reverently bow
ing their heads in prayer at the ring
ing of the Augolus lie conoeived the
pioturo whioh, if not his best work, is
yet the best known, and the one most
appreciated by the people. Mere
Adele calls herself i child of God. She
looks it in the painting, and she lives it
every day in her humble cottage.—

Toilet Hints.
Nover mistake fads for fashions.
Gloves aud shoes too small are de
cidedly bad form.
Ripped garmeuts and frayed edges
are fata! to smartness.
A sense of appropriateness in attire
is more desirable than riches.
Good grooming is the necessary
preliminary to smart dressing.
The little spade-fronted jacket again
is coming in for a good deal of es
teem.
Well-brushed skirts, well-cleaned
shoes, aud a trim waist-line costs
nothing.
Learn how to carry the body cor
rectly if you expect to carry your
clothes well.
Fresh linen is ns essential to the
smartly dressed girl as to the correct
ly dressed man.
Dry hair and scaly scalp require
nourishing. Rub a little olivo oil
into the roots of tho hair with tho Un
gor tips twice a weolt, making part
ings over the head for that purpose.
Sweet spirits of nitre is one of the j
best aud simplest of toilet waters. It
is an excellent doodorizer, and while
possessing no actual fragrance itßolf,
imparts a most acceptable aroma of
cleanliness.

Economy Is so Important a subject
that the mathematical housekeeper will
doubtless find It greatly to her edifi
cation and profit to consider the fol
lowing from Puck: If a housewife
twists in one hour and fifteen minutes
ninety-three "lamp-lighters" when
1,250 matches can be bought for five
cents, at what rate per hour does she
value her time, assuming the worth ol
the paper to be zero? If the aforesaid
woman will take six steps across a
room and six returning, each step being
of twenty-two inches, to save one
match, how far should she consistently
walk to save five cents carfare? If a
man can draw from boards in fifty
minutes seventy-eight nails of a cer
tain size, what wages would he be
earning per hour, nails being worth'
four cents per pound, and there being
one hundred of this size in a pound'
In a certain climate underwear at a 1
price of $4 per winter will assure ;
against colds. Assuming that under
wear costing $1 per season will lead
to two visits from the doctor at $1.50 (
each, what is the saving by the pur
chase of the cheaper material? Oil Is
worth nine cents per gallon. Lamp A
burns forty-five gallons in reading or j
sewing period of one year; lamp B,!
twenty-five gallons. Spectacles A cost
$4.50; spectacles 25 cents. If lamp B
and spectacles B are used, the eyesight I
is made useless in eight years for a !

New York Sun: The tearing down
of the old buildings, 93, 95 and 97 Cher
ry street, to make way for a modern
structure, removes a landmark vaguely
associated in the annals of the neigh
brohood with the days of the American
revolution. When Washington made
his headquarters at Roosevelt and
Cherry streets, the local historians
declare, he stored in these old build
! Ings munitions of war supplies for his
' army. The historians of Cherry Hill
then skip the intervening years until a
period beginning fifteen or twenty
years ago is reached. The buildings
were then occupied as resorts for sail
ors. The Loopey gang, which once
threw a man into the river for 6 cents,
made its headquarters in the neignpor
bood. Near by was Sneepy's alley,
leading from Roosevelt to Cherry
street, in which a Roosevelt street resi
dent declares there were three mur
ders within as many months.
