TITUS SALT, TIE INVENTOR or ALPACA
GOODS "A demonstration" Of very inter.
esting character took place recently at Brad
ford, Yorkshire, Eng land, in the shape Of O
presentation to one of the most remarkable
men snd eminent English manufacturers.
The history of Titus Salt is in itself ro-
nance. He is " self-made" man. Born in
poverty, and educated in abject toll, he is now
in the prime of life one of tho richest men in
England, and perhaps the greatest private
employer of labor in the world. His fortune
was made by one of those lucky discoveries
that occur once or twice in an age. The
story is worth telling.
Afew wears since a Hoollen manufacturer
not troubled with too much business, went to
Liverpool to buy the raw article required In
lis trade. While here he was shown over a
pile OF new warehouses, then thought one Of
the wonders Of the port, his keen Yorkshire
eye alighted upon packet of something that
looked like and yet was not really wood.
In answer to his inquiries, he was told that
it was hair shorn from kind Of wild goat,
which inhabited South America, but that il
was hardly worth importing, as little or no
use could be found for it. He examined Its
texture, thought he could do something with
the almost unknown and neglected produce,
and begged TO have a sample. lie took the
hair home. made his experiments, kept his
secret, and finding his expectations as TO the
bought up the raw material at low figure
and manufactured of the cloth which is
now in universal use for coats, trousers, dress
es, umbrellas, and an infinite variety OF Rrti'
cles under the name of " Alpaca" and which
is favoritc material with all classes in this
country. The shaggy goats wool has turned
out to be q regular golden Teece to Titus Salt,
for out Of the money he has made by its man
ufacture, he has built the largest Iaill in
England, which daily employs 5000 hands,
and has more than double that number OF
families depending upon Its existence for their
own.
This palatial establishment, which com.
prises q large town within its limits, is named
Saltaire, after its founder, and supplies the
nation with Alpaca in every variety and form
Saturday was the anniversary OF Titus Salts
birth, and the third anniversary of the inau-
guration Of his monster works. HIS working
people showed their respect for him by ma
king the occasion famous as ano,her anniver-
fary-that of presenting to him marble bust
| Of himself. To the number of 1900 the hands
marched in procession to Mr. Salts house,
which bears the cosy name Of Grows Nest,
spent the morning pleasantly In his grounds,
had a grand dinner beneath a marquee, and
then they marched to Bradford, where in the

A Great Man in Disgui,e

| Many years ago il happened that the elder
Vernet, the painter, was travelling from Mar.
seilles to Paris in the cOshs-voifartn, an ex-
ira heavy diligence, which performed the
gers packed up in ample cavities vernet took
particular notice Of n fat man, with red and
vulgar face, whose wits seemed rs thick as his
body, and resolving TO amuse himself with
this grotesque parsonage, he showed him .
great deal of poiteness, which the fat man
returned awkwardly, but good humoredly.
They soon came to a hill; and as the poor
Jaaes would have been totally unable TO drag
up the eoche- -OOitUrrn with its fat and lean
cargo, the passengers got out. As they were
walking they passed near n ditch Of no great
width, and Vernet, who was q good leaper,
offered TO bet that he would clear il.
what" cries the fat man, much sur
prised, "could you clear that?"
"To be sure 1 could; IL is not wide'
l should like to see you set about it,
why 50 says Vernet, clearing it.
" You've done it sure enough" said the fat
man; Il should like TO try il too; You have
put mo in spirits. and think could get
over"
"YOu," cried the painter, bursting into
loud laugh; " should like to see you set
about it. L will bet our dinner that you tum-
BILE in.''
Come now, don't frighten me beforehand.
Let me see our dinner,-thst comes to good
deal"
"Three francs, believe"
That's good deal Of money; never mind
I'll try II Done"
After cutting half dozen queer faces,
the fat man leaped, and pumped down a foot
farther than Vernet had gone.

rather piqued you wont refuse me, L hope"
"Oh. no 1t is a mere chance, and may
not happen again at any rate people must
play fairly, and tomorrow we will leap for
our dinner once more "
The next day another opportunity of trying
their agility presented itself and the fat man
won, by triie, as he had done the day be-
fore, and was again delighted with his aston
ishing luck, while Vernet more and moro NOR
tiled at the triumph Of bis antagonist, renewed
the contest every day without exception. But
everything must have an end, and our trav-
elers had arrived at their last stage; on which
the fat man went to Vernet and said Sir,
owe you q thousand thanks for paying for my
dinner almost all the way from Marseilles
here, and L wish to show you my gratitude.
