Great interest was aroused by our announcement and thousands of ap- plicaitons were received asking for sample pages and full particulars. Orders for complete sets came in sof_ast that all available sets for immediate delivery were soon exhausted and those who de- layed in filing their applications had to wait until new sets could be manufactured, which required several weeks’ time. 25,265 Sets of the Encyc|0paadia\ Britannica were ordered, and the largest book manufactory in the United States found it impo ssible tokeep pace with the demand, and we were requastad to discoatinus accepting orders except f'or future delivery, Our Less Than Half Price offer effected a saving to subscribers of over ONE MILLION DOLLARS. This great saving and the privilege of paying a little at a time each month, together with .the superior quality of the volumes, explain the cause of the unprecelented demand. y On account of the great advertising facilities of the American Newspaper Association the publishers have renewed their contract with us for a short time and we will therefore accept sub- scriptions untik further notice at the sam= price and on ths same terms as before. We give fair warning, however, that all applications will be filed in the order received. We therefore advise readers of The Call to send for sample pages and full particulars without delay. For more than one hundred years the Encyclopaedia Britannica has occupied the forem st rank £s a self-educator and work of reference, through its various revisions and additions during that inter- val. It was first issued over one hundred years ago in Three Volumes. At iatervajs new and enlarged editions of the work were publishzd, thus keeping pace with tha progress of the world. The New 20th Century Edition, which we now offer, « occupies 31 magnificent volumes, containing nearly 25,000 pages, and covers every department of knowledge known to mankind. That some sort of an Eacyclopaedia is a necessity all must acknowledge. That the great Britannica is the very bestnone will deny. It is an Eacyclopaedia in which each principal subject is treated by an acknowledged au- thority upon that subject. No other Encyclopaedia has given Ten Theusand Dollars for a Single Article or Six Hundred Dollars a page for written matter. The fact that $3,000,- o000 were expended in its preparation, requising the labor of 2,000 of the world’s greatest scholors, tells the story of its exalted superiority.

Ban Franoisce il ESGAPE WRATH OF A FATHER Farmer’s Daughter and Lover Successfully Elope. Family Tries to Head Off the Fugitives but Fails. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. STOCKTON, Aug. 2.—Lewis F. Wright and Edith Pitt, the daughter of Farmer Pitt of Wallace, have eloped, and the irate parent is trying to discover their whereabouts. The man is 32 years old and the girl is but three months past 15 years. Yesterday the two made an unsuccess- ful attempt to get a marriage license here and this morning the father appeared and asked the assistance of the officers in] recovering his daughter. Thursday night the girl's parents came to Stockton to do some trading, and ‘Wright, learning of their absence, drove thirty miles to the girl's home and se- curing her at an early hour in the morn- ing, returned here. Shortly after the flight the parents reached home, and sur- mising the reason for the girl’s absence, doubled back to this city in an effort to head off the fugitives. In this they were unsuccessful, as the couple left town after their failure to re- ceive a license. The father was working the wires all afternoon sendll:l%l out no- tices to county clerks to deny the couple a marriage license, but he was unable to discover any trace of their whereabouts. A FREAK BANKNOTE ISSUED BY TREASURY It Is Marked $10 on One Side and $20 on the Charles A. Pomeroy of 127 Duane street, New York, has in his possession the strangest freak in the way of a banknote that is known to exist anywhere. It Is a bill which would readily pass for ten or twenty dollars, according to which side of it is looked at. It is not a case of two bills of different denominations pasted to- gether, but is a single piece of Uncle Sam’s paper on the face of which is the imprint of as good a $10 bill as was ever printed, while across the back is an equai- Iy perfect 320 note. How this hybrid ever passed under the watchful eye of the treasury experts and went into circulation is @ mystery no one can explain. ‘When the freak first made its appear- ance it was in company with three other bills similarly printed. Its three compan- jons, however, were captured by the Gov- ernment and destroyed, but the fourth eluded every effort and finally fell into the hands of a wealthy man, who treas- ured it as a curio. He was the late Charles S. Upton of Rochester. At his death he willed the unique banknote to his nephew, Mr. Pomeroy, who has stead- ily refused to give up the note, realizing its value. At one time the Government | offered Mr. Pomeroy $300 for the note, | but he refused and later he was offere $1500, but again refused. | It is _over forty years since this curi- osity first made its appearance. It was issued in_ January, 1861, by the Second | National Bank of Springfield, Mass., and | its genuineness is beyond question. At| first it was declared that the bill was real- ly two banknotes cleverly pasted together, but it was turned over to the authorities | of another bank, by whom it was kept ! soaked in water for two days. It was then | taken from the bath in a condition that | absolutely set at rest the two-bill idea. | With the consent of the officials of the Chemical National Bank of New York the | bill was subjected to another test a short time ago. It was deposited with other | money, no hint having previously been given to the employes. The result was such a tangle in the bank’s affairs that it | required over four hours to locate a sup- | posed mistake of $10 in the balance sheet. The cashier then showed them the $10-20 bill and the clerks understood why they had made a mistake. Appreclating the oddity of the bill; Mr. Pomeroy sought recently to have it photo- graphed and wrote to the Treasury De- partment for permission. The reply was | a curt note of refusal. Only at long inter- vals do Government printing presses | make serious mistakes, and never has| such an_extraordinary error as this been made.—CHhicago Chronicle. —————— BACHELORS’ BURDENS IN KOREA AND AMERICA The Customs of the Hermit King- dom Unbearable for Our Boys. The matron was disgusted with the bachelor. Thére was no doubt about it. She said she was. For the fourth time he had foiled her most skillful efforts at matchmaking. She had given him every opportunity to fall in love with four girls, any one of whom was a prize.

In addition to the precautions taken in guarding the railway, the car is put in the charge of certain household o&chls. who admit no one, no matter how high | their position, without an order from the Czar or Czarina. Like most of the royal family, the Czar- ina has a “‘penchant’ for collecting photo- raphs and has a unique dado in her oudoir composed entirely of photo- | graphs, some of them being fancy por- | traits or pictures of celebrated dancer | and "actresses. Not long ago a certain Grand Duchess remonstrated with the Czarina for having a portrait of Tolstoi in her room.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, AUGUST 24, 1902. ; LOVERS" QUARREL ENDS IN TRAGEDY Ranch Hand Shoots and Severely Wounds His Sweetheart. He Then Turns Revolver on Himself and Fires Bullet Into His Heart. ‘ Special Dispatch to The Call. EL PASO, Tex., Aug. 23.—Victoriano Laiba, a love-smitten ranch hand, shot his sweetheart with a revolver at § o'clock last night. Then he killed him- self. Laiba worked on a ranch eight miles from the city and had been paying uttention to Sarah Elenas, a young girl. They had had some trouble, but the de- tails are not known. The shooting oc- curred very soon after Laiba reached the house. His first shot entered the girl's breast and passed through the body, com- ing out under the shouider. The girl screamed and fell forward, apparently cdead. Laiba then pressed the weapon over his heart and fired, dying almost in- stantly. The family rushed to the spot and found the girl still alive, but bleed- ing profusely. She was living this after- noon, but was in_an extremely critical condition. The girl seems to have been unfortun- ate in her love affairs. About a year ago another ardent lover whom she jilted shot her through the leg. SPAIN RICH IN IRON ORE BEDS She Sells Millions of Tons to Other Countries, but Buys Her Steel. The leading industrial journal of Spain, commenting on the fact that a steamship had taken a load of iron ore to the United States and had just returned with a_cargo of steel rails, deplores the almost entire lack of steel works in Spain, and the con- sequent necessity. of importing steel into a country that is very rich in iron ore of the best steel making quality. Spain has been the classic land of the mining industry since the time of the Phoenicians and yet the main use the country makes of its rich supply of met- als is to sell them to other countries. The splendid iron ore among the mountains of the north coast is hematife of the best steel grade. There is plenty of coal with which to reduce the iron ore, the coal output in some years being worth as much as $30,000,000; but though Spain has every facility for making all the iron and steel the people need most of the com- modities are imported. In recent years, to be sure, considerable industrial activity has developed in the Basque province among the mountains where the iron ore is dug out of the crust of the earth, and also in Catalonia, in the extremo northeast of the kingdom, mainly at the city of Barcelona and around it The chief industry is the manufacture of iron and machinery, but not nearly encugh are made to supply the demands of the country. So Spain Continues to ship from Bay of Biscay ports thousands of tons of her fine ore to Great Britain, Germany, France and Belgium, where it i= used for steel making. Great Britain buys more than one-half of the ore and most of it is smelted in South Wales, the chief seat of the Bessemer steel indus- try. There is only one other country that is a great producer of iron ore, and yet de- pends upon other lands to turn this raw material into pigiron and steel. That country is Sweden, which, however, has a good excuse for selling its ore instead of making iron and steel of it. Sweden has practically no coal, and therefore it is at a great disadvantage, for it is without fuel to smelt its ores, while Spain has both ore and fuel in abundance. —_——————— THE CONFESSIONS OF A MATCH-MAKING MOTHER | Claims That Her Work Is a Good One and Should Be Better Appreciated. Here is a hint from that latest book of confessions—The Confessions of a Match-Making Mother.” This confessing mother made matches for her eight daughters, and, as she herself assures us, her ‘‘success has been and is brilliant.” For the benefit of motiters with marriage- .| able_danghters who haven’t the book at hand, the following is quoted: ““The world has grown to look upon match-making mothers as detestable, un- scrupulous harpies, spiders lying in wait to seize upon poor innocent husband-flies and crunch their bones. Nonsense!l. If any woman ever had a happy married life with a husband she loved, and who loved her, she must be an unnatural wretch if she doesn’t want her daughters to have the same.” And again: “The really wise and kind mother looks out for the men whom her daughter’'s special qualities will most at- tract; she selects ome of their number whom she considers most calculated to win_the girl's love and to make her a good husband, and then she secretly but firmly flings them together under circum- stances which settle the match. “From her own experience in life she knows that poverty is not a thing to desire. When it comes in at the window, love is apt to fly out at the door. It is as easy for a girl of 19 or 20 to love a rich man as a poor man, so her mother naturally throws her into the society of the man who can afford to keep her—the wife he marries. It seems to me that, as girls can't possibly do all this planning and maneuvering for themselves, their mothers are bound to do it for them, or else they shamefully neglect their duties. So far from a match-makine mother be- ing Yooked on with scorn and derision, she ought to be regarded with respect and reverence—at least that's my view of the matter.”—Boston Transcript.

Every one knows that you have to learn how to ride a horse, and that the bicycle is not to be negotiated with ease by the entirely uninitiated. But few people, we | fmagine, were aware how cunning a skill is required to ride with safety in the or- dinary hansom. A Daily ‘News reporter has interviewed Mr. Forder, the great cabmaker, and elicited from him much valuable information. When you ride alone in a cab you should always sit in one of the corners, so that in the event of the horse stumbling you have the pil- Jar on which the door is hung to prevent you from flying out of the vehicle; and similarly, when there are two people in a cab, they should both be ready to take advantage of this safeguard. Of course, the interview was apropos of Mr. Cham- berlain's accident, and the manufacturer expressed surprise that the Colonial Sec- retery did not know how to sit in a cab. Now the general public are enlightened on this art, we shall miss the formerly common sight of a solitary rider bal- anced with a kind of nervous pride in the direct middle of the seat.—Pall Mall Ga- zette.
