Get rich, my dear boy, and yon may aspire even to the valuable possession of this heartless hand," She held it out. He took it, pressed It. stooped and kissed it. Then he dropped her hand and walked quickly out of the room. "Poor Reggie!" she murmured. "I wish I wish but what is the use of wishing?" ACT 11. Two men one young, the other 60 sat in the veranda of a small bunga low. It was after breakfast. They lay back in long bamboo chairs, each with a ciirar. It looked as if thnv wero resting. In reality they were talking vuniiiuns, mm Hint very seriously, "Yet. sir." said the elder man, with something of an American accent, "I havo somehow tnkon a fancy to this place. 1 he situation is healthy." "Well. I don't know; I have had more than one touch of fever." "The climate is lovely " "Except in the rains."

Ho was on the point 01 accepting the proposal, when a pony rode up to the house, and the rider, a uative groom, jumped off and gave him a note. He opened it and reau. it was from Ins nearest nnio-h oor, two or three miles away: "Don't sen mat man your estate. Gold has oeen louna. The whole country is full of gold. Hold on. He's an assayer.

"Well. sir. said the hrtncier, "vou have brought this thing to me. You want my advice. Well, my advice Is don't fool away the only good thing that will ever happen to you. Luck such as this doeso t come mors than once in a lifetime." "I have been offered 10,000 for rav estate." "Oh, have you? Ten thousand! That was very liberal very liberal, iudeed. Ten thousand for a gold reef." 1 But I thought, as an old friend of my father, you would, perhaps " "Young man. don't fool it away.

There was the French count, but that was knocked in tho bead very early in cousequeuce of tilings discovered. And there was the bloomin' Guano, but he fortunately smashed, much to Rosio's joy, because she never liked him. Tho last was Lord Evergreen. He was a nico old chap when vou could understand what he said, anil Rosio would have liked that title very much, though bis grand childreu opposed the thing. Well, sir, I suppose you couldn't understand the trouble wo took to keep that old man alive for his wedding. Science did all it could, but 'twas of uo use." The financier sighed. "The ways of provi dence are inscrutable. He" died sir, the day before." " That was very sad." "A dashing of the cup from tho lip, sir. My daughter would be u count ess. Well, young gentleman, about this estaie of yours. I think I see a way 1 think. Iain not yet sure that I do see a way. Go now.

"And and may I call upon Rosie?" "Not till this day week; not till I have made my way plain." ACT IV. "And so it means this. Oh, Rosie, you look lovelier than ever, and I'm as happy as a king. It means this. Your father Is tho greatest genius in the world. He buys rav property for '50,-000-60,OOO. ThaVs over ' '2,000 a year for me, and he makes a company out of it with 150,000 capital. He says that, taking 10.000 out of it for expenses, there will be a prolit of 80. 000 that's 3.000 a year for you, and 60,000. that's 2.000 more, my dear est Rosie. You remember what you said, that when you married you should stop out of oue room like this into another jut as good?" "Oh, Reggie" she sank upon his bosom "you know I never could love anybody but you. It's true I was eu gaged to old Lord Evergreen, but that was only because ho had one foot you know and when the other foot went in, too, just a day too soon. I actually laughed. So the pater is going to make a compauy of it, is he? Well, I hope he won't put any of his money iuto it, I'm sure, because of late all of the companies have turned out so badly."

Some of the Coroners' verdicts in the country of fifty or sixty years ago are very curious. The followlug are some of the causes assigned for death. "She came to her death by strangu lation in testimony we have sit our hands and seal the day above wroteo." "Paul Bums came to his death by a mule runuiug away with a wagou and being thrown therefrom." "From causes unknown to the jury aud having no medical attendance." "Came to his death from national causes." "An inquisition holden upon tho body of Joiiu Browu there lying dead by the jurors whose names are hereto subscribed, who upon their oath do say tiuit he came to his death in the fol lowing manner, by falling off the plank bridge accidental while trying to cross the stream and was drowned."

And the first shake that Mike gave he started a tree-toad from a sound nap and the tree-toad fell plump iuto Pat's open mouth. He spluttered, and gulped, and jumped about. At last he called out, iu dis may: "Come on, Mike! I'll have no more of this country's plums. They have four legs to them!" Harper's Young 1'eople.

Curiosities About Coins. Cartain passages in the Illiad of Homer would lead to the inference that coins of brass were struck as early as 1.184 years B. C. Tradition nllirnis that the Chinese had bronze coins as early as 1120 B. C. But Herodotus, "the Father of History," ascribes the "invention" of coins to the Lydians, about nine centuries B. C.and there is uo 8atisfactoryevideuco that coins were know n prior to that date. The original process of coining was very simple. A globular piece of metal, having a delinod weight, was placed ou a die, engraved with some national or religious symbol, and struck with a hammer until it had re ceived the impression. Ono of the most ancient Asiatic coins was the Persian D.iric, a gold coin struck dur ing the reign of Darius, urnrly live centuries B. C. The lirst coinage in Rome was about the year 600 B. C. The nirtal used was bronze, and the unit of value was one pound in weight. The coin was called an "as"; was brick shaped and stamped with the figure of a sheep or an ox. Silver was lirst coined nt Romo in the year 275 U. C. Tho first Roman gold coin was issued only about 74 years B. C. The Saxons coined thn first British pieces about the year 271) A. 1). The first colonial cnius issued in this country were struck in Massachusetts in 1652. They were three, six, aud 12 pence pieces. 67. Louis liamblic The Weight of a Dollar Kill, Iii the Treasury hero ono day this week the question came up as to the weight of a $1 bill. Scales of perfect accuracy wero brought into requisi tion nnd the surprising discovery was made that twenty -"seven notes weighed exactly ns much as a if-'O gold piece.

The thermometer registered eero this morning. Some miscreant, who had nothing else to do sounded the fire alarm last night at about eleven o'clock. The alarm proved to be a false one, but it caused a good many to turn out. The authorities should make an evumple of the two fellows, so it will prove a lesson to others who might be tempted to turn in a false alarm. Another attempt was made to hold up the Missouri Pacific pas senger train at West Side, in the suburbs of Omaha, at the same place where an express train was so successfully robbed some time ago. The engineer saw several masked men standing 011 the crossing, uud, instead of, stopping his train, he pulled by with all possible speed. The would-be robbers fired a score or more of shots at the train as it rushed by. Fortunately no one was injured and 110 material damage was done. The conductor tele graphed the news back from the next station and detectives were at once put on their track.

Bow Patrons Are Made Miserable by tlouk, Programme Bd other Fiends. You have scarcely rmt vonr noun in 1 4 ... sido a theater before you are seized upon anu cauou 10 stanu an;i deliver, t tret it is your coat. Men and women rush nfrer you and pester you for your coat. They wouid rejoice lr ail were foolish enough to yield to their importunate demands, and risk colds, coughs, influenza and bronchitis for the rest.of their natural life. Why, it is madness to venture into tne sxaua wimout a draft protector. Modern theaters are so constructed that thev nro mem draft trnna li you are seated near the door you risk a stiff neck. You must wrap your cloak around VOU and hfl rftrofnl frt nrntwt your legs from the blasts of wind that pour in irom every crack and canny. If yon are in the center of the stalls, at many theaters directly tho curtain is raised a tornado or wind rushes across the footliffhta and catches vou bv the throat I often think that women are mad who venture into theaters with low dresses in winter time. It is bad enough for men. And yet these attendants get quite of fended if we do not leave behind ns the only garments that will protect us from sudden death. Remember that no one is free from the theater highwaymen. Even those who go in with orders cannot get out of the cloakroom or programme tax. At last they must pay. 1 remem ber once going into a theater with a friend who hail a keen sense of the lu dicrous. I think it must have been VV. S. Gilbert. It was a morning perform ance and he was attacked in the usual way: "Coat, sir!" "What do you want with it?" "To take it off." "Vory well," bo murmured innocently. The highwayman prepared to strip off his coat, and behold! my friend, who had prepared for tho dodge, walked away in his shirt sleeves! IIo had only put on his overcoat, with nothing un derneath it Unconcerned he was preparing to en ter the stalls coatless, when the attend ant rushed after him. "Look here, sir, you must not go into tho stalls like that!" "Why not?' he asked with a bland and innocent air. "You asked for my coat You have got it What more can you want?" The coct and cloak fiends having been disposed of, you encounter tho second rank of touts. Now it is a programme for which you must pay. They inso lently bar your passage. They dun you and din into your ears, "Programme, sir!" It is not a civil request to know if you would like a programme or not but a domand with au implied threat The implication is that yon are a stingy person, who lias no right to bo seen in the stalls.
