The foregoing shows that The weekly Con-
sumption in Europe for November was
l2S00O bales, Of 400 pounds each against
10000 bales for the same month Of 1880, an
increase in the weekly consumption OF 1900
bales over last year.
The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1881-12-18

The comparison with last year is made
more striking by bringing together the
above totals and adding the average weekly
consumption up to this time for the two
years.

The AVERY PLOW,

1t IS a we'll understood fact among farmers who
have used the Avery Plow, that they are imple-
mentS that not only well made. but that thew
are male out OF the very best material, whether
steel castings, or timber.
Nothing of an inferior quality is allowed to go
into the Plow, and farmers who buy the genuine
Avery Plow know they can always rely upon
what they are getting-a frst-class implementin
every respect.
The models are such as lifetime in the bust
ness has taught to be the best; after their own
design, and are well known for their lightness of
draft.
The Cast Flows are made from pig metal of from
seven to ten different varieties OF cold and hot
blasts so that the greatest possible strength at
tanned. Attest bar is kept for this purpose from
which daily record is maze.
This bar is poured at the same tine the other
castings are made, and in case the bar is not up
to the standard, all the castings are melted over
again.
All Steel Flows have thoroughly hardened
mold bodrFs. Farmers requested to eest these
m9a-boarts by using a good file either on the
surface on the edge
II the Plow is easily filed. the quality is DOOR,

The timber used is '.butt cuts,'' the TO. CHEST

No estimate has as yet been made
of the expense incurred by the Pres
ident's sickness. 1t is thought the
total will foot up to a very large
amount. The various items will
be collected and presented to Con-
gress, and an appropriation will be
made covering the entire amount.
The bill of the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company will be large item.
1t is stated that the coast of lying
the track to Elberon was $4,000,
while on two occasions special trains
were furnished and the entire line
cleared. The next big item will be
the doctors fees. The amount is
variously estimated. DR.. Bliss fee
is stated to be about $4,000, while
Drs. Hamilton and Agnew will
charge $4,000 each. DR.. Reyburn
will also receive large fee. The
other two doctors (Drs. Barnes and

er they will receive any extra COM

THE TWO "HAMLETS. !"
HOW sHAKEsPEARE's GREAT PLAY
CAME TO BE PUBLISHED.

Shakespeare in 1899 1900 wrote
his great tragedy of 'Hamlet,"
founding it upon the plot of an old
play known as "The Revenge of
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, +"
which itself was founded on an old
story told by Saxo Grammaticus.
Shakespeare's play, produced in
1900, made such an impression up
on gentle and simple, upon the
highly educated classes as well as
upon the public in general, that
it was acted not only at London,
but at Oxford and Cambridge and
elsewhere. There was an eager
desire to read it; but, according to
the custom of the day, the text
was jealousy guarded by its theat-
rical proprietors. Under these cir
cumstances piratical printer nam
ed James Roberts set himself to
get for publication a copy of this
wonderful play, which all the world
was going TO and talking of; and
naturally applying to the minor &C
tors in Shakespeare's company, he
succeeded in corrupting the man
who played Voltimand, and Undue
&c him to undertake to get a copy.
He, however, was able to get only
fragments, great and small. Some
parts of the play he gave from
memory; some he got by surrep-
titious examination of the stage
copy and of actors parts; and all
this being still not enough, James
Roberts had some of the play tax
Ell down in shorthand during the
performance, which was very lame
ly done. Some passages were tax
ed from the old play, which had
the same plot. This mass Of bet
erogenous stuff, some of it just
what the author wrote, but the
greater part of it what no dramat-
lst ever wrote, was pieced and
patched together, and hurriedly
published, to the horror of William
Shakespeare, and SO much to the
injury of the tragedy, as it was
thought, that d true and perfect
copy" containing much that new
er at any time was heard on Shak-
espeare's stage, was Immediately
sent to the publisher, who soon is
sued it cured and perfect of its limbs
and absolutely in its members, as
it had been conceived by its great
creator.

AMERICAN MANUFACTURE OF PER
FUMERY.-New York Evening Mail:
The manufacture of perfumery has
extended very rapidly in this coun-
try during the past ten years. Not
withstanding its increased use in
that tine, which must have doubl-
ed the quantity required, our i'm
ports are decreasing every year.
This, too, in the face of the fact that
nearly all the important ingredients,
with the exception of alcohol, are
imported. The skill necessary for
compromising in proper proportions
the delicate extracts and essential
oils distilled from flowers formely
existed only in France, but it is now
possessed here in an equal degree,
though the trade is confined to a
few houses. Our export trade in
perfumery has labored under a pee
uliar disadvantage for a number OF
years and is just beginning, slowly
but surely, to stand upon a firm
basis.

CHEESE MADE FROM POTA-
TOES.

A German paper says that cheese
is made from potatoes in Thurin-
gia and Saxony in the manner be-
low: After having collected a
quantity of potatoes of good quality
giving the preference to a large
white kind, they are boiled in a
cauldron, and becomming cool, they
are peeled and reduced to pulp,
either by means Of crater or NOR
tar. To five pounds of the pulp,
which ought to be as equal as pos
sible, is added one pound of sour
milk and the necessary quantity of
salt. The whole is kneaded togeth-
er and the mixture covered up and
allowed to lie for three or four days,
according to the season. At the
end of this time it is kneaded anew,
and the cheeses are placed in little
baskets, when the superfuous mois-
ture escapes. They are then allow
ed to dry, in the shade, and placed
in layers in large vessels, where
they must remain for fifteen days.
The older the cheese are the more
their quality improves. Three
kinds are made. The first and
most common is made as detailed
above; the second, with four parts
of curdled milk, the third, with two
parts Of potatoes and four parts of
COW or eve milk. These cheeses
have this advantage over other kinds
that they do not engender worms,
and keep fresh for a number of years,
provided they are placed in a dry
situation and well-closed vessel.

A TRAMP'S RAPID TRANSI-
TION INTO A MIL
LIONAIRE.

Jacob Winters, of this state, and
Catharine B. Kernstem, OF Wheel
ing, have become heirs to a fabu-
Ions fortune by the death of their
brother in New Mexico. The name
Of the deceased was John Valen.
tine Winters, who at the time of
his death owned a half interest in
Homestake mine Of New Mexico.
Ex-Gov. Jacob, of West Virginia,
is interested in behalf of Mrs. Kern
stein. The story of finding the
bonanza is thus told by the Wheel
ing Register of this morning: Mr..
John Y. Winters and his partner,
James Dolon, were out on a pros
pecting tour in Southern New Mex
leo, late in the summer Of 1879,
and were meeting with Indifferent
success when their attention was
turned toward Lincoln county by
the reports they heard of a Mex
can who had found a nugget of
gold in the neighborhood Of where
White Oak now stands. They
went to the locality and commenc-
ed work upon a placer. Shortly
after going into their "diggins" a
strapped" miner named Wilson
came along from Arizona. Wilson
was hard pressed for grub stake,
so Wilson took him in and gave
him work in the placers. They
could not afford to employ him
on a salary, and after remaining in
camp three days, Wilson took a
grub stake and started up Baxter
canon. Sitting on a boulder to rest
he clipped off a corner of the rock
and found "color." He concluded
that there must be a good lode
somewhere in the vicinity, and com
menced to search for an outcrop
up the mountain side. He had
travelled but twenty yards when he
found the enchanted spot, and To-
Gated the famous Honestake claim.
He went back to camp and report
ed his find, offering it for sale. All
the wealth that Winters bad was
$40 worth of washings and three
silver dollars. With this and pis-
tol the Homestake was secured,
and the interest divided with Do
lon and a merchant of Lincoln nam
ed LIE Rue, who had grub-staked
the placer mines before Wilson APP
peared on the scene. The purchas-
er Of the Homestake commenced
the work Of development immed-
lately, and at the depth of four feet
from the surface found gold stand
ing out to the naked eye. At
depth of eight feet five assays have
been made, giving the astonishing
average Of $4,000 per ton. The
mine is now down some twelve
feet, and ore is being placed on the
dump awaiting treatment when the
stamp mills arrive. Still the
wealth of the Homestake is not
known, and it is thought that mil
lions will be taken out before the
shaft reaches the depth where most
gold mines first show signs. Will
son owns the south half of the mine
still, and has become a millionaire,
where but few months ago he was
a tramp prospector.

Russia is far behind the rest of
Europe in the matter of postal in
tercourse. While in England thir-
ty letters are annually transmitted
for each individual of the popula-
ton, in Germany fourteen and in
France thirteen, the number sent in
Russia does not allow one letter for
each inhabitant. Three causes
chiefly account for this fact: the un-
scrupulous inspection to which a
letter is officially subjected upon
the slightest provocation, the low
order OF general intelligence, and
the lack of postal facilities. There
are towns in Russia where letters
are delivered but once a month, and
in some of the largest provincial
towns there is post only twice a
week. At present the gross rev
enue of the department is 14,000,-
600 rubles, which Just about covers
the expenditure.

A HORSE ATTACKED BY A
WEASEL.

A remarkable incident occurred
recently upon a farm in Scotland.
A farmer was blowing in one Of
his fields, which was nearly COM
pleted, and was passing within a
foot or two of the fence, when sud
denly, and to the surprise of the
farmer, one Of the horses became
FESTIVE and wild, and refused to
proceed in his work. This was an
unusual circumstance, and the far
mer was puzzled to make out the
cause Of it. Selling the reins in
his hands, he walked toward the
horses head, when, to his aston
ishment, he found that a large wea-
sci had attacked his horse by spring
ing upon it and fastening its teeth
in the frighted animals neck. 1t
was moment of excitement and
alarm, but the farmer was equal
to the emergency. With a we'll
directed stroke of the reins the
weasel was dislodged and killed.
The horse soon recovered from his
fright, and in due course blowing
was resumed. The cause of the
daring attack upon the horse was
explained upon the return journey,
with the pillow breadth nearer the
wall, where at the place of attack
