This enabled her to remove smaller refuse. The residuum she put into the next Mailer platter, and elm repeated the process until there was a quantity of sand and gravel ready for treatment, This watt sprinkled freely with water, .end by a deft, circular moven:lent ot the platter brought the small gravel .tto the outside, where it could be thrust foyer the edge. When she had, repeated dins operation three or four times she .treated the material, which atow took - ed like mud, in a still emaller platter, ' At last in the smallest platter she ( ,had, the bucketful of sweepings re- duced to a handful or two of sifted sand.

The whole opera- tion had taken half an hour and it had produced about a shilling's worth of gold.

It seems that when the boat drifted away the captain beettme frantic because ot the helpless positeon in which he found timeelf in a: seemingly slaking ship. He must have lost is reason,' for he got his autematie pistol and started firing at the 'remaining three members of his crew, who had to seek shelter • wherever they could from him. One of the men was shot in the upper lip. By a subterfege the captain was eventually secured in his cabin, where he was barricaded., in, all the timber and heavy articles to hand being piled up against the door and on top of the cabin to present his escape. It was tylient .that the captain had gone stark mad, for he kept firing bullets. After some time everything became quiet in the cabin, but no one dared to investigate wbat had happened there. The tug took the schooner 1 - tow to Cardiff. When the cabin was entered a terrible spectacle presented • itself. The unfortunate captain was found dead on the floor, with a French service rifle near him. It was • evident that he had placed the barrel of the rine under his chin and shot himself, the bullet coming out at the top of the head. On the bed was found the pistol, which was seen to have be- come clogged owing to a cartridge leaving stuck in the berme The whole cabiu was riddled with bullets and in indescribable disorder, the floor being eovered with spent cartridges. - 4,444 Didn't Want Much.

An interesting e.Se IS reported from Calgary in a letter Om Creighton E. Thompson, who eves: "Nething too strong can be said for Catarrhozone. I suffered four years from aethma in a way that would beg- gar description. I went through every- thing that man could suffer. I was told of Catarrhozone by a clerk in Fiecliay's drug store and purchased a dollar package. It was worth hundreds to me in a week, and I place a price- less value on the benefit I have since derived. I strongly urge every sufferer to use Catarrhozone for Asthma, Bron- chitis and Catarrh." The one -dollar package lasts two months; small size, 50e; sample size, 25e; all storekeepers and druggists, or the Catarrhozone Co., Kingston, Canada. • 4, 0, WHEN ROTHSCPH1LD PAID HEAVILY. Here is an illustration of the tricks in trade to which unecrupulous deal- ers, in antiquities will resort to get large prices for their wares, Tbe two parties were Alessandro Castel- lani, a clever dealer, and Baron Adolph Rothschild of Paris. Castellani had a superb enamelled ewer, with thTdiala on which it stood. The Baron etan arriving in Rome Yisite'd iCasteila.41's shop and was ehown the beet things the dealer had except the enamelled dish and ewer. Wlaen eeerything else -had been inspectee,Oastellani drew from hidden cupboard and dish, but not the ewer. The'Beron was so pleased with the -dish that lie,ogreed to buy the lot of which it wage, part. The Baron paid heavily, lamenting that there was no ewer to stand on the dish, and departed for Florence. There he was visited by an agent would fit into the hollow of the dish. ed to tell several beautiful majolica pieces. He visited her house and was disapopinted, as tile ,majolica was not fine enough. The old lady, seeming- ly chagrined, left the room to order refreshments, and the Baron saw through the open door of a bedroom a ewer, covered by a glass shade, on which rested a wreath of iminortelles. When the lady returned the Baron asked permission to examine the °war. It was brought out and the Baron saw that the enamel was of the stone work as that eif the dish he had bought. He wished, however, to be certain that the foot of the ewer would fit into the hollaw of the dish. The Bron went 'back to his rooms had the fish unpacked and found that the foot of the ewer fitted perfect- ly*. The next day the Baron sent the agent to offer the old lady a prince- ly sunt for the ewer. He brought back a refusal to e'en. But at last the widow's scrupleis were overcome. 'Castellani, with his Italian can- ning, had planned the whole affair. * THE GOODS, ALL EIGHT, First Gossip—Don't tell a soul, but ow a whole barrel of whiskey delivered to the Topeleys' this afternoon In broad da Second Gossip—Itow'd you' know It was whiskey?

Then tame the question: note' did these lords acquire title to all tills land, anyway? This question, which lias been sleeping for realty genera - Sins, was probed before the Coal Com- mission. The gestin bas been made an issue by the Miners' Federation Bill for the nationalization of all the n teiT(1;1 recent 1 S 01 f Great Britain, Aud itt . earing before the Coal Commission om this measure the labor leaders attacked unmercifully the right of ownership of the last landed estates held by the peers. Nearly all the coal lands of Great Dritata are owned by these titled landlords. The labor leaders, like Robert Smile lie, president of the Miners' Federa- tion, have gone tack to the eerier history of land ownership, and have shownthat up to the time of the great entr the amount of land under ontivation in Great Britaiu ltts 1yeen steadily decreasing for generations, because it • was held for hunting grounds by the nobility, A fair exempt° of this line of laves. - Ligation le that of the estate of Lord Bute, the third richest peer of Greae Britain, who was summoned at the instance of the labor leaders to appear as a witness before the coal commis- sion, Lord Bute's estate consists of ono hundred and twenty thousand acres of agricultural land, six splendid country seats, a gorgeous town house in Lon- don, miles and miles of land in Pales- tine, and the entire Island of Bute, off the Scottish coast, which contains 31,151 acres, and he is ,the absolute ground landlord of the entire great Welsh town of Cardiff. His estate is worth more than 100 million dollars, and his annual income is one and a quarter million dollars. He spends a fortune on his stud and stables alohe. While Lord Bute wits on the witness stand Frank Hodges, secretary ot the Miners' Federation, cross questioned his lordship as to the evidence of the title to his proitertY. 'Have you studied the history relat- ing to the property granted in 1547,- 1550 to Sir William Herbert, your an- cestor?" asked Mr. Hedges. His loedship replied that he had not done so, and that the only thing he knew about it was that one of his an- cestor's services was the raising of an arniY. The particular , property herein alluded to was the. land upon which stands the city of Cardiff, Wales, alt of whose docks, railways, warehouses; and a big castle, with the outlying collieries and coal mines, are con- trolled by Lord Bute. •Mr. Hodges then quotedfrom what he said was a copy of the actual dom. wherein wheeh granted the property to Sir it is stated that the greet was 'William Herbert 372 years ago, made "for quelling rebels the weset ern part of Eitgland." This document ina econ lost for a eoupie of ten- turies; arid had beett discovered re- cently in the records office by an em- ployee or the Cardiff corporation, -and this corperation still holds the deed. Mr. Bonged alleged that Sir William Herbert was one of the guardians of Ring Edward the Sixth, when the latter was. between 10 and 14 years old and was then on the throne of Eng- land. Hodges declared -that eir Willlam Herbert had the boy king grant to hint enormous areas of land,,,which at that time were in the possession of the crown, thus using the boy king's name to enrich hinISelf. Mr. Hodges pointed out that therefore a minor had trans- ferred to Sir :William Herbert one of he greatect proPerties that had ever been known to be granted to auyone, and that "literally millions of money had been paid and received as the out- come of this gigantie fraud." Answering a query, Lord Bete said that if the Leal lands of his property should be taken back by the natioe in the interest 61 'future generations he would certainly expect the nation to compensate him in this generation out of the public funds, Pill lYlaltnig Crabs.
