The almost total disappearance of the old-fashioned “bull's-eye" silver watches is a source of wonderment to even some watch dealers. It Is prac tically Impossible to pick up one now among them. A Chicago Tribune reporter made the rounds of the watch, pawn, and junk shops recently In quest of one of these old timepieces, and did not find it. One dealer said he knew where a single specimen was, but later admitted that the owner either had sold or lost it. A veteran watchmaker who can make a watch by hand, In re ferring to the disappearance of the “bull’s eyes," said: "It Is only natural, I suppose, that they should disappear. None of them were first-class time pieces. I mean that the best of them would vary as much as a minute a week. The cheaper machine-made watches keep better time and cost less. The first of these old ‘bull’s-eyes’ car ried the regulation Virdge movement. One hundred years ago the Virdge watches were carried by all business men. Later the English watchmakers made ‘bull’s-eyes’ with improvements on the Virdgo movement. I haven't seen a Virdge for two or three years. As a matter of fact, those old-fash ioned, key-winding silver watches are worth only what the silver in the cases amounts to. The metal represents about a dollar in value. The works are worthless. Only one or two small wheels aro taken out by the dealers. Sometimes they are useful in repairing family heirlooms. What are they worth? Why, nothing at all as time pieces. The best way to get one is to keep on inquiring among the grand fathers and great uncles until you run across one, and then beg It or buy it. It Is practically worthless, except as a relic." COBWEB PICTURES, Unique Pictures Made by Mre. Game well, a St. Louis Lady. Making pictures and decorations out of cobwebs, peanut shells and postage stamps is an art created by Mrs. Belle Cooper Gamewell of St. Louis, Mo. Taken up as a fad the art has develop ed into a business and Mrs. Gamewell is making money, although she is well-to-do in the world. When Mrs. Gamewell wants t» make one of her queer pictures she must first hunt un til she finds a cobweb. The kind that accumulates in the comer of the cell ing in the homes where the house maids can’t see anything higher than the mantlepiece is best for the purpose. When she finds a web she takes it down very carefully and spreads It in the bottom of a pasteboard box. Some times it Is necessary to gather several cobwebs to provide sufficient fairy can vas for one picture. When the web has been spread over the bottom of the box it is ready to be painted on. Mrs. Gamewell uses brushes and oil paints, but she can not wield the brush like the ordinary painter who puts his colors on a big, coarse canvas. She dips her brush in the paints very carefully, so that she gets only a tiny drop on it each time. The ordinary artist draws a line with a sweep of his hand. She builds the line drop by drop without ever actually touching the web with her brush. In this way she makes landscapes and flower designs that are greatly admired by her little friends. When all the paint has been deposited drop by drop on the web it is permitted to dry. Then Mrs. Gamewell covers it with a piece of thin glass or mica and the picture is complete. Men Like Tan Bhoeo* “Shoe manufacturers have been try ing hard for four years to drive tan and colored shoes out of the market.” said a Chestnut street dealer, "and they have made an ignominous failure of it. The boom in cheap patent leath ers, which was started purposely to squeeze the tan shoes from the market has almost collapsed. Many factories did not send out samples of colored shoes for this season’s trade, but sent patent leather samples Instead. The manufacturers who did not make this mistake are the men who are getting the summer’s business. Men like tan shoes, and that’s all there is about It. Women are not so fond of them be cause they are more trouble to keep clean.”~Phtladelphia Times. The Land of Earthquakes. There are certain generally accepted conclusions which are entirely wrong. One of these is as to the land of the most frequent earthquakes. Ask al most any person and he will tell you that most earthquakes are in Japan; but he is wrong. It seems as though we hear more about earthquakes at or near Japan than at any other place, but when the facts are tabulated we find that Greece is far ahead of Japan, The latest complete reports cover a pe riod of six years from 1893 to 1898, and during that time 3,187 earthquakes occurred in Greece and about one-half of that number in Japan. The island of Zanta alone had 2,018 shocks during the six years. Our Export* to Mexico. Uast year the United States sent over $31,000,000 worth of goods into Mexico. This' was nearly $7,000,000 more than the year before. The in crease of late has been chiefly due to large exportations of machinery and electrical supplies. Mexico buys a good deal of her coal from this coun try, but the amount is not likely to he increased, as the factories in Mexico are changing over from steam to eleo tric power. The rivers are many in number and every one is a series of waterfalls, owing to the hilllness of the country. H2 nro likely to bo used for glazing H Bpa coffee?

Frederick Volek’s bronze bust of Robert E. Lee has been presented to Washington and Lee University by Frank T. Howard of New Orleans. The bronze is of life size and is said to be the b*st impression extant of the great g( Aejal. Mr. Volck was em ployed by the confederate government to make it during the civil war. -—-. Value of Shocked Nerve*. According to a legal decision in the Vienna courts, “shock to the nerves” constitutes a serious accident. A pas senger on a local line claimed damages, which were awarded him, for a shock to his nerves, caused by the conductor shouting out to the passengers to jump off tho car, as he feared a col lision. Full of Bunlnes* at 83. Ex-Mayor Daniel D. Whitney of Brooklyn, now in his eighty-third year, is president of an insurance company, director of a bank and proprietor of a wholasole grocery store, and attends strictly to business in each of these capacities. He has lived in the same house for nearly sixty years. Hymn. In Gaelic. The psalmody hymns committee of the Church of Scotland having report ed that the majority of the Highland Presbyteries are in favor of the publi cation of a Gaelic hymnal, the general assembly has empowered them to ad just and issue a collection of hymns in Gaelic. Far From tho Deadly Gaxea. The churches of the borough of Manhattan, New York city have sent about 30,000 boys, girls and mothers to the country this summer. Of the various churches the Episcopal sends by far the greatest number of children. Trinity church alone sending 4,000. President of a University.
