Honest Mistake.
The story In told of a little New Eng
laud girl the workings of whose Pur
itan conscience Involved her lu difficul
ties on one occasion.
She was studying mental arith
metic at school, and took no pleasure
lu It One day she told her mother
with much depression of spirit that she
had "failed again In mental arithme
tic," and on being asked what problem
had proved her undoing she sorrowful
ly mentioned the request for the addi
tion of "nine and four."
"And didn't you know the answer,
dear?" asked nor mother.
"Yes'm," said the little maid, "but
you know we are to write the answers
on our slates, and before I thought 1
made four marks and counted up, 'ten,
'leren, twelve, thirteen;' and then ol
course I knew that wasn't mental, so
I wrote twelve for the answer, to b
fair."

Aabbel P. Fitch, ex-controller of New

logical fact or an Ingenious attempt to

to the fore. Bald Mr. Fitch:
"When I was controller of New York
1 thoroughly Investigated the subject
of baldness, and reached the eonclu
alon that It Is an Index of Intellect. In
the last year of my Incumbency aa con
trailer my curiosity Impelled me to In
quire as to the hair of the paupers
that had been sent to the county poor
house. "Of the eight thousand seven hun

had come under the charge of the

he can doubtless be, but passion to a
Spanish woman Is a matter of life and
death, far too serious a matter to be
played with, and flirting Is unknown to
her. That is the secret of that simple,
direct bearing and speech of the Span
ish woman, so free from the embarrass
ing consciousness of sex, which renders
a Spanish woman bo charming, with a
charm In this and In many other re
spects so unlike that of the French
woman; and the poorest of Spanish
women, however gracious she may be,
hns no difficulty in conveying an assur
ance of the fact that she belongs to her
self, says n writer lu the Nineteenth
Century. The Raying of Pope that
"most women have no character at all'1

'.rftelf In Spain, where the sense of til
roost self-sutlicing self-possession seems
to be the rule among the women of the
ordinary population, who often retain
both vitality and charm of manner Into
old age. There Is no class of the pop

haps least of all that class (on the verge
of glpsyibmi) which still keeps up ilie
dances of old Spain for the joy of an
ever smaller circle. Abroad, the dances
of Spain are transferred by the original
skill of an Otero or a Canueneila (Guer
rero being the splendid exception); at
home they are attenuated in polite so
ciety, rendered commonplace in cafes
chantants, suppressed in their favorite
haunts by the nnregiirdlng Spaniard.
In Seville nearly every home of real
native dancing is now closed; in Mal

POPE LEO'S OLD NURSE.
Woman Now Over One Hundred Tears
Call at the Vatican.
The Pope recently gave an audience
to Anna Moroni, a woman over 100
years old, who, as a young girl, acted
as his nurse. She was conducted over
the "royal staircase," otherwise re
served for sovereigns, and sat opposite
the Pope in a big armchair, also an
extraordinary favor, much against Vat
ican etiquette. The holy father smiled
benignantly on "Signora Anna," cau
tioning her to rest well before she
spoke. After a while the old woman
commenced to talk of old times and
old friends.
"Do you remember when good old
Auntie Protperl saved you from the
bad boys on the market phice In Bel
letri? They would have whipped you
sure If auntie hadn't Interfered, for
you were not a strong hoy."
The two old friends talked for over
an hour, Dr. I.apponl occasionally In
terpreting, for both Anna and Ivco are
hard of hearing. As she hobbled away
the old woman excused herself for
having given the doctor so much trou
ble. "That's all right. Annlnn," said the
holy father; "both of us heard so much
In our long life no wonder our ears
refuse to serve."
Anna left the Vatican In a papal car
riage, holding In her lap the golden
rosary I.eo had given her and a docu
ment granting her an ample life pen
sion, payable by the Vatican treasury
VOTI N QB YT E LE GRAPH.
Klectric l'evice Once Planned for Ger

There Is only oue reference to me
chanical voting lu the thirteen reports
on foreign parliaments which have re
ceutly been Issued. 1 bis occurs in a
memorandum on the subject of dl
visions lu the relcbstag and Prussian
landtag.
As long ago as 1800 a motion was
Introduced In the Prussian lower house
In favor of establishing a system called
the voting telegraph, an electric In
vention designed by the Arm of Sie
mens & HaUke. Each member was to
have at his place a handle to turn to
right or left as be wished to vote "yes"
or "no," and this handle could be
turned only by the member to whom
the seat belonged, each member being
provided with a special key. The time
for taking the votes of the lower bouse
would, according to tbla scheme, have
occupied less tban two minutes.
There were no practical objections
made to the machine, says the London
Chronicle, but It waa rejected, partly
because no pressing need existed for
shortening the divisions and partly on
account of the advantages of an oral
process of voting.

200 PEOPLE ARE DEAD
Terrific Eruption Saturday Night La Car

by a Tldul Wave.
Castries, Island of St. Lucia, Brit
ish W. I., Sept. 2 The British
steamer, Korono, arrived here Sun
day evening from Fort De Fraoce,
Island of Martinique.
It Is reported that a terrible erup
tion of Mount Pelee occurred at 9
o'clock Saturday night and that peo
ple who arrived at. Fort De France
from the northern end of the island
reported that the village of Morne
R iuge, oear the district previously
devastated, had been entirely de
stroyed ana that Le Carbet, a village
on the co.ist, which was destroyed
at the time of the great eruption,
had been swept by a tidal wave.
About 200 persons lost their lives. A
sloop from the Island of St. Vincent
which reached here tl.ls morning re
ports that the Mount Pelee's crater
is quiet, but that the denotations
during Saturday night were the
loudest bearJ up to that time and
that the inhabitants were terribly
alarmed.
TURKEY HELD RESPONSIBLE.
Constantinople, Sept. 2. The re
port circulated in the United States
by a news agency that the Turkish
government had addressed an abrupt
note to United States Minister
Flelschmao, In which it absolutely
refused to further discuss the respon
sibility for the capture by brigands
of Mis? Ellen M. Stone, the Ameri
can missionary and her companion in
September, 11)01 as the outrage was
not committed on Turkish territory
is not true. As a matter of fact, the
question of the pope's responslblltiy
is indispcnsible since the capture,
payment of the ransome and libera
tion of the captives all occured In
Turkish territory.
The correspondence on the subject
of the measures taken or the discov
er? and arrest of the brigands contin
ues, and the Insufficiency cf there
ports displayed by Turkish authori
ties has been the subject of complaint
by the United States legation.
Bid BALLOON OUT OF SIOHT.
Denver, Sep. 2. The last report of
the progress of the baloon which was
sent up from this city yesterday af
ternoon In an effort to establish a
new lone distance ana time record
was received from Castle Rock last
night.
It was to the effect that near that
point just at dusk, a quantity of bal
last was t issed out and Immediately
the balloon began to ascend, until a
height of 4,000 feet was attiined. The
balloon then started In a southwest
ern direction, and when if passed
from view was apparently going at a
high rate of speed.
The story that a descent to the
ground was made anywhere sines
the start is vigorously denied by
those who should know. It is ex
pected that the occupants of the ba
loon will soon release one of the
p irachute message carriers, the con
tents of which will be teleriphed
here.

Amsdon, sged thiry-flve also a
miner, waa shot through the left
breast and and mortally wounded,

fatally wounded.
The shooting was the direct re

tentions paid by Andy Malloy, a
young mloer to Amy Bltti, a fifteen-
year-old girl with whom Amsdon
was lo love. Amsdon. armed wltb a !
rifle, went on a bunt for Msloy. He
