In my travels, when a young girl in Egypt and later In the Sudan, In iNtnallla, I met with a woman who ; had fled from the Sudan during the war with the British. She was related to the once famous Osman Dlgua. the tnahdi's general and most trusted friend. She related the following, which 1 translate: Rvery year Osruau Dlgua used to take no Sudanese men and load them up with Ivory, gold and precious stones which the niahdl obtained from traders from the Congo. Me led these men In a march which lasted three days into the wilds of Khartoum, to a moun tain wher.e was his cache. When every* j thing was put lh safely, they started off to return, but balfwdy another trusted man, named Mahomoud, met Osman Digna with a. hundred men, who killed everyone of the men used to carry the valuables. > When tbat deed was dope they returned to the majidl, waiting for the next year's caravan. Osman Digna consequently was the only man who knew the cache. When taken prisonec^he was offered a large sum of money to condqct a party to the place but he absolutely refused to speak.

An unforeseen interruption of travel" occurred on the West side elevated railroad one morning last week. A short, somewhat .stout, middle-aged woman ambling her way to the down town platform at Ninety-third street dropped hor parse, ^as well- as her ticket, In the box. The son of Rrln whose special duty it is to see that tickets are dropped in the box tried to extricate the purse with a wire. He failed and then the woman wAnted to try. The . ticket seller was called out. Potential passengers were held up. A crowd collected. Variegated re marks enlivened the occasion. Final ly a mechanic was summoned. He took the top off the box and recov ered the purse. It contained 27 cents. Travel had been delayed almost au hour.-? New York Sun. Church Treasure Recovered. 4 An Italian ice cream dealer In' at tempting to dispose of a solid sliver cross for $00,000 in Glasgow disclosed the whereabouts of a Thirteenth cen tury church ornament worth $800,000 which disappeared several years ago from the Church of Borgo Collefa gato, near Aquila, Italy. The evi dence presented In court was to the effect that the cross was one of the most valuable antiquities of Italy, and was thought to have been smuggled out of the country by an art collector. The Ice cream vendor's ' effort to sell It at a $ft0,000 figure aroused the suspi cions of an antiquarian because of Its greater intrinsic worth. The Ital-. fan contended that it has been in the possession of his family for genera tions, that it had been lost in the earthquake at Messina and had been recovered by him from the* ruins.

Pickering of Harvard univer sity, has put forfft the Interesting theory that the moon Is not a perfcct i iy dead world. '^Professor Pickering believes tliut he seen through the tele scope Indications of a kind of vegeta tion that springs up suddenly under certain conditions and disappears al most ns suddenly when the conditions change. Other astronomers are' skep tical about the discovery. They' are Inclined to think that Professor Pick Bering sees bands or patches of shadow. Of course no one thinks that, there Is any highly organised life on the moon. Bren ~tf~ Professor Pickering is right, there cotftd he nothing more than a low kind jof vegetation ; something comparable, perhaps, to qrrtlc moss. ? Youth's Companion. - Tailor's "Goose" First Ute While gas ranges are the common place thing In every city home today and gas has upwards of 2,000 Indus trie^ uses, such applications are of comparatively recent origin. After the successful use of gas for lighting, the first generally UBed gus utensil was the tailors "goose," or pressing iron, an investigation made by the American Gas association shows. Then came the line of domestic gas burning appliances for cooking pur poses, which grew from one that ap peared modestly on restaurant coun ters In the form of a chafing dish, with Its heat supplied' from a crudo burner. A plumber devised that and It was the start of gas stoves. As late as 80 years ago, no gnu stoves were offered for sale in this country. ? German Belts in Africa. Tho first peal of hells to arrive in Johannesburg, South Africa, Is a Ger man one. It has a very interesting history. Seven years ago a set of three bells with electric control, was subscribed for, tlie donors including the late ex-kalserin of Germany. They were shipped on the Prinz Regtott, which at the outbreak of the war ran Into Tenerlffe, where the goods were warehoused. Recently the ownem of the warehouse demanded that the con signees should take delivery. The lat ter are the committee of the Frledens Klrche, In Twist street, whose Ger man-speaking congregation, though In straitened circumstances, made shift to pay the expenses, with the result that the bells, which are described as a very fine trio, are now erected in the church in question.
