KEAR FOR THEIR TREASURE Sow the Millions in Gold Stored in English Banks Are Guarded. Officials of the Bank of England are said to be worried for the safety of the hoards of wealth stored in their strong boxes. The bank station of the new under ground railway in London is close to teh vaults of the world's great est institution of linauce. At a recent meeting of the bank direc tors it was suggested that some brave but wicked person might eet off a quantity of explosive in the bank station- , wrecking the foundations of the stately build ings above and sending the bars of bullion and streams of gold ; leaking out to the station plat form. The feasibility of thi ? scheme has been conceded by th" bank governor. It is figured , however , tha ( the "tube , " as the underground railway is called , is a little too deep at this point. To reach the bullion vaults of the bank the conspirators would havi to drive a shaft nearly JUO feet , and then they would face it mass of concrete , thick masonry and steel. At one time the Hank of England was the object of con spiracy. From a church to we : close by the bank was bombarded. Afterward the authorities had the church and its threatening tower destroyed. Officials of the bank do not like the tunneling go ing on in the clay beneath their foundations. The constant pump ing of water has affected even the solidity of the clay , and from this cause one of the wells which is within the three acres comprised within the bank's precincts has dried up. Those three acres are valued at about ยง 5,000,000 each , and the treasures within them are guard ed in fitting fashion. On either side of the main entrance to the bank are two small glass houses. In the one reposes a stately beadle. In the other are two wide awake detectives. Other detec tives are in and out of the rooms , but always unobtrusively. At nigh I the police force is a heavy one. Every evening a compact body of men , commanded by a lieu tenant , and including two ser geants , two drummers , a bugler and 30 privates , marches from Wellington barrack to the bank. They are in full marching order , and before they enter the tech nical limits of "the city" exercise that privilege of the guards of fix ing bayonets. They are on duty for 12 hours , and but for the recur ring spells of sentry-go have an easy time. Officials of the bank provide moderate refreshments for these guards. In the guard room , which is of regulation pattern , are f the usual shelf and blanket , suf ficient accommodation for a sol dier's intermittent dozing when on duty of this kind. The officer ha& a suite of rooms at his service the dining-room of paneled oak , a neat bedroom and a bathroom , There is hidden away in the center of the bank one of the most pleas ant gardens in London , where an after-dinner cigar may be enjoyed on a summer evening to the full while the roar of the great metrop olis around has died away to in articulate murmurs. A King'u New Palace. King Leopold of Belgium has taken possession of the new Jap anese palace in the Royal park at Laekcji. It is divided into severa wings. Each of them contains half a dozen of finely decoratet drawing-rooms. The furniture the ornaments , the sculptures , the paintings , the screens and thereof roof were executed atTokio by the best Japanese artists. More than 2,000 electric lights illumin ate the palace , where the king in tends giving some gorgeous recep tions in honor of the shah of Per sia next summer. CHARM OF THE OLD SONGS Old Favorites Are Perennially Popular with All Classes of People. Old songs are the best , for they carry us back to the days that were radiant with sentiment and were part of poetry and ro mance , declares the Kansas Oity Journal. They stir our natures in their profoundcst depths , and. reaching below the callous of our petrescent hearts , play strange ac companiments upon the long dia used strings of our remembrance. . Who can resist the subtle potency of those old songs that stop tin1 world in tear-smiles that we may wave a salutation back through a rift in the storm of years to the youth and maiden of the long ago ? That the old songs are best lian been shown in the perennial popu larity of Patti's "Home , Sweet Ilome , " Emma Abbott's "Annie Laurie , " Jennie Lind's "Kathleen Mavournecn , " Christina Neil son's " 'Way Down Upon the Su wanee River" and Melba's "Com in' Through the Rye. " Wedonol always associate these immortal songs with the great singers who have included them in their con j ' certs , but the singers are often re membered because of the songs ' themselves. There are few who I can remember the many acrobatic arias of the splendid vocal artists ' who have commanded almost fab , ulous sums for their singing , but ' no one can forget when they yield ed to popular demand for the old , songs. Patti or Sembrich or Mel ba or Calve never had more sin cere appreciation in the suprem est moments of her triumphs than when she descended for the time from the classics of foreign com posers and sang the simple love ballads that sent thrills through world-weary hearts and caused withered palms to stir in tremu lous applause. HOLDERS OF ODD RECORDS Waltz That lasted Six and Three Quarter Hours Egg Eater's Capacity Other Marks. Those who fail to gain distinc tion through other means seem to seek oddity of performance , and every little while there appears a challenge from some "champion egg eater" or other freak , says the New York ilerald. The 40-quail-in-iO-days perform ance has been outdone by a man who recently ate a whole goose each day for 30 days , the fowl weighing from 0 to 11 pounds. Other records in this line are GO soft-boiled eggs daily for six days , six quarts of beans in 40 minutes , smoking 50 cigars in 11 bourn without once taking a drink. A Paris couple recently waltzed without cessation for GJ hours , while an English actor danced all the way from London to Norwich. The best club-swinging record has been standing for 17 years , when 388 different combinations were shown in 1GJ minutes , 2,311 revolutions being required. A score of G-134 points was the result of a 21-hour endurance bil Hard match in Paris , the contest ants covering 30 miles in walking around the table , and a violinis * has played a composition of 4,80fl notes in 4 } minutes , averaging 1 ! > notes a second. Reciting Dante's ' 'Divine Com cdy"from memory in 20 hours i * another queer record , while oth ers have gained fame through making 2,000 ham sandwiches in 19 hours and 40 minutes , dressing ten sheep in 33 minutes , 200 chick ens in 44 minutes and killing and dry picking JOS geese in ten hours.
