Up to about five years ago Pan Preston was a lucky man, havins e everything in life that he wanted tc make him happy, and nothing t< worry him. He was young and strong standing five feet eleven in hi: stockings, was not in love, and, bes of all, he thought, had not a cent ii the world and no head for business. His ill-luck began when his great uncle Morrison died and saddled th< burden of his millions upon him. H< had not expected this, and fumed am fretted, vowing he would never bea: it. He had just taken passage fo Europe in the steerage of a cattli steamer sailing from Quebec, had hat a hard time to raise the money fo even that, and now, in the ver; height of his triumph at having ac complished the acme of his ambition down came that crushing inheritance and life lost its roseate hue and be came black. Reluctantly he gave up thought of the steerage, and secured a deel cabin on the Kaiser Wilhelm de Grosse from New York, but all tin way over, while outwardly enjoyin; himself and making himself agree x able to the ladies, he was planning how to get rid of his monetary incu bus. In Paris he gave everybody th? slip and went straight to the Lat.ii Quarter. There he took an attic fitted it up with second-hand furni ture, had a "mean pallet" for a bed a tumbledown easel, some scarecrov chairs and other shabby triugs, am then settled down to wo'-k wit) .strong hope of some degr- of hap piness. ne assea ine ooys aoouc im cheapest restaurants and was sooi going it with the most poverty stricken of the lot, having a goo; time and almost succeeding in for getting his money when, one unluck; day, his lawyer tracked him out, am secrecy was no longer possible. Hi tcomrades of the Quarter distruste< him after that and turned the col< shouldsr, and there was nothing t< do but quit Paris. In Munich, whither he went, hi uiuii i it quuc su aiiuii?, ian.1111 a fairly decent apartment, wcrrkini or not as he liked, spending and los ing all the money he could withou arousing suspicion. Working as hi did, by fits and starts, it required n< management to acquire a reputatioi for laziness, and he soon had the hap piness of learning that he was spokei of as a ne'er-do-weel who woul< never make his mark. This encour aged him to believe that he coul< safely exhibit with a good prospec of being skied, and finding no sali for his work. What, theD, was hi dismay on going into the Gallery t< see his picture hung on the line, witl an admiring crowd before it, and t< receive the next day an offer of six teen thousand marks for it. He hai to accept, of course, or be found out but it couvinced him that Munici was, for his purposes, worse thai Paris. Next he tried St. Petersburg, think ing that if there wero such a thin; as getting into a scrape, Russia wa the country for the purpose. Hen ho did all the reckless things h' could think of, any one of whiel woma nave resulted in the banish raent to Siberia of an ordinarily luck: individual, but lie never succeeded ii exciting even a faint suspicion of Ni hillsm. Before he had been in th< city a mouth he found himself bcinj sought cut by personages in th court circle and treated as if he ha< been a prince in disguise. This en abled him to try an experiment whicl although he decidedly objected to it he had wished to try for some time The thought occurred to him that had he been a gambler, he migh have got rid uf any amount of mone: in a very short time. He had heart and read of fortunes being lost in i single night, he tried the thing witl a party of professional gamblers? swons, an or tncm?but professiona gamblers all the same. Of course, he knew that he shoulc win the first uight or two?in storie; tyros always do?and he didn't mim it for a while; but when it kept 01 night after night for a month, an: he found that he had more tliar doubled the amounts lie had at stako he thought it was high time- to throwi up the undertaking. Discouraged and diss-.isted, hi went to London. wiu>ro lie frequent ed the East End with large sums o inouey in his pockets: visiter! the places of popular amusement witl bulging pocket-books, ill-concealed jn the hope of thus losing at leas ft few thousand pounds. Either th< police were unusually on tho aleri or the pickpockets had all ex peri enc?d a change of heart, for never i penny could he lose. Then he returned to New Yor? end tried investments. Knowing that he had no head for business, he reckoned this lack the strongest assei in his new plan. Whenever h( heard of a particularly unpromishii f wildcat he would take a fev ^ thousand shares in it?with liability " j if possible?thinking this about th< ' surest way to secure a good, health: loss. Not a loss could he make, for e as sure as he took shares in the fish iest-looking of all mining or othei . schemes, the thing would flare ui c into the biggest boom it had evei had. and Preston's money would hs trebled before lie could get rid of hi* e stock. It seemed to him awful. Then he settled large sums or. all e his relatives, and had serious thoughts of getting rid of the whole fortune in that way, when again hi; s Nemesis, in the shape of his lawyer, came down on him. telling him that by the terms of old Morrison's will he was prohibited from disposing ol more than a certain proportion of his capital during his lifetime. Then the ; brilliant, quite unbusiness-like idea occurred to him to contest his great. uncle's will. But as his relatives? 1 who had carefully read the will ever before he had, and found that in cass of a contest the whole fortune would 8! go to charity?begg3d him not to dc I so, as they would thereby have tc j disgorge what he had already converged to them?he felt compelled for their sakes, to desist. If only he had had the good fortune to think of this plan at first! But. hang il all, that was just his luck! About this time, his case looking really desperate, some malicious ' : spirit suggested to him to marry s j ! poor girl?one who had never had y two cents to her name, and wlic 3 would have her head so turned when j ! she learned of the wealth that was al j ber disposal, that she might be trust' j I ed to get rid of it in short order bj ^ I the abnormal extravagance whict j i she would naturally develop. Here j was a promising scheme, and he won_ ! dered he had not thought of it bej fore. He went to work warily, howa I ever, for. of course, while he wanted J J a poor girl, hs did not wish a comr ' inon on?, with no genius for extravar j gance, and the right one was hard tc 3 find at first. j Happening to mention to his old r nurse his desire to marry a poor bul y pretty girl, she entered into the plar with much alacrity and promised t. find "the very one."

The nett day he met her she wor< I a plain black dress. He saw her oftei 1 after that and by degrees he over _ i came her extreme shyness, and sh( e i conversed with him in a way tha1 j soon set his pulses tingling. _ j At the end of two or three month: j ! he was dead in love with the girl _! He had not intended this, but wa: v ! not going to let such a small cjn ^ j sidcration break up the plan, whicl i was progressing so finely. It tool , nearly another month to persuad< j her to marry, but she finally cou 5 sented. The wedding day arrived.

Ol j all the costly looking brides he hac I ever seen she was the costliest, anc j yet the plainest in her apparel.

The next day, on the train, wher he casually dropped a package ol j thousand-dollar notes into her lap with the remark that- it was pin j money, she remarked in the quietesi a little drawl imaginable: "Oh Paul' T must fpll vom a litMf secret!

CLOTH FROM PArER. 5 i ___ , German Yarn Result of Years of Scientific Study. I ! "To the ingenuity of Herr Emil Claviez, a well-known Saxon inventor [ and manufacturer, is due the product tion of a paper yarn termed 'Zyolin,' j that has been successfully used in a I I wide range of textile fabrics." Sj . writes Frank N. Bauskett in tne j Technical World Magazine. "The utilization of paper wood j j fibre in this practical way and the exI ; trerue cheapness of the new material 1 compared with other yarns now in ; use is really a most remarkable . achievement. This is not a haphazt ' ard discovery, but rather the logical j result of years of painstaking study j ! and experimentation. Alter the final j development of the theory at first in t ! mind into tangible material for all E I manner of uses in textile industries, the paper thread and yarn, loose or . tightly spun, of all thicknesses, have I since been woven iuto almost every conceivable fabric and tested and re, tested, until the invention has bet come an important commercial suc5 cess. The paper yam has extraor[ dinary wearing properties, and as tha full scope of its usefulness has probably not bean determined. It will. in all likelihood, lenfl itself to other . purposes yet to be discovered." Origin of the Dog Watch. ] The "dog watch" on shipboard is 1 i either of the short spells from 4 to ; 6 o'clock in the evening or from 6 1 to 8 to break the monotony of the 1 | regular four-hour watches, so that the same men will not stand watch I during the same hours every day. If, j i however, you should ask the most I j i nautical person of your acquaintance. 1 ' or, indeed, all the nautical people I [ you know, why this is so called, you j ; would probably find them unable to i tell you. The true answer is this: Dog J watch is a corruption of dodge watch. > The dog watch was introduced to pre- ( ' vent the same men from always keepiug watch the same hoars of the day; ( i hence on these occasions the sailors ( are said to dodge the routine, or to DViSla/lolnliin Ue UOIIlg UDUJC naau. ^ unuuvi^uiv i Record. !

Daps' Imprisonment and $250 Fine Each For Permitting Strike Violence ? Case Goes to Court cf Appeals. New York City. ? Three officers, past and present, of Typographical Union No. 6, better known as "Big Six," were ordered committed to Ludlow Street Jail for twenty days and fined $250 each, and two members of the union were fined $100 each by Justice Bischoff, of the Supreme Court, for violating the terms of a The men thus summarily ordered punished are: Patrick H. McCormicfc, ex-prosldent cf "Big Six," sentenced to twenty clays' imprisonment and to pay a fine of $250. George W. Jackson, organizer, a similar sentence. Vincent J. Costello. ex-organizer, a similar sentence. William J. S. Anderson, fined $100. Thomas Bennett, fined $100. The cause of this drastic action dates back to a period in 1906 when v Typographical Union No. 6 ordered a J strike against the association of mas] ter printers known as the Typothetae ! of the City of New York. The men struck for a closed shop and an eighth hour day, which the employers refused to grant. The Typothetae took counsel and, on the plea that the strikers were practicing intimidation against their employes who remained at work, Justice Blanchard granted an injunction restraining the officers and members of Typographical Union No. 6 from interfering with the workmen who remained with the Typothetae. Shortly thereafter Robert C. Beatty, counsel for the Typothetae, applied to the Supreme Court for the punishment of officers and members of the Union for contempt of court in falling to obey the terms of the injunction. Mr. Beatty charged thai the acts of violence complained of were still being perpetrated, and nnanlfin nliflraoc PArtfl-in IlittUC 0|/cvtuu wuui(,vw members of the union. Upon these representations Justice Bischoff appointed Adam Wiener, of No. 320 Broadway, a referee to take testimony in the controversy and to report back to the court. The referee continued his hearings until December last, and a short time ago submitted his report to Justice Bischoff. The latter affirms the report, and says: "The findings of the referee upon the questions specified in the order of reference are all supported by the evidence of the full degree of cogency md probative value required for the purpose of the proceeding. "The questions involved have been fully discussed by the referee, in the opinion filed with his report, and I am in accord with the reasoning employed by him. If the solemn orders Df this court are to have any efficacy, punishment sufficient as a deterrent . should be visited upon the respond| ents whose disobedience has been es-_ ! tablished in the present case; and I am satisfied that the mere imposition of a fine in the present case, within the statutory limit of $250, would afford no adequate penalty in the case af the officers of the respondent association, but would rather operate as j fixing a small fine at which exemption from the embarrassing features of an injunction might be purchased. As <o the other respondents, who are operating at daily wages, a fine is presumed sufficient Dunishment." i In the usual course of things order would be entered, on notice to all parties concerned, reciting the decision and the penalties, and following that the men would have begin their terms of imprisonment in' Ludlow street jail and pay the fines. But it was agreed among counsel that "l an appeal would be taken from Judge BischofTs decision and a stay of the order obtained meanwhile. Whati ever the decision of the Appellate j Division, it is certain that the Court I if Appeals will be asked to pass on ihe matter before any final order is entered, as both sides realize the importance of the decision. Lawyer Robert C. Beatty, who repj ;esents the Typothetae in the proceedi rugs, said that he was immensely I pleased with the decision and ex| pected that it would be upheld by j the highest courts. "It is the first time," he said, "that i such a decision has been rendered I nriHi realties of sufficient importance to the violators of injunctions issued ' In labor cases to make the punished I feel the weight of the law. Mere I fines, which can be paid by the union | out of its funds or by a special assessj ment, are of no practical use in de| Darring men from doing what these | men did, namely, urge on their folj lowers to disregard the Court's orders and proceed in theit: plans of threats, assaults and intimidations without hindrance, as though there had been no such injunction issued."
