Making Fringe.

00NlDS FRINGE
Take fiat, smooth, thin stick, ten or
twelve inches long and as wide as the
depth OF the fringe required. One side of
this should be thin edge. and the other
one-eigbth to one-quarter inch thick, to
cut on with knife for Sitting tho fringe
after it is made. Two sets Of thread are
used, the heading and the fringe. For the
heading take about three yards of the
thread and tie the two ends together: then
tie this doubled piece by its middle to the
stick near one end, leaving enough Of the
short end of the stick to hold it by. Let
the knot come on the thin edge, Now you
must have an assistant. Place the ball for
the fringe in some convenient receptacle.
Let her take the stick by the short end in
her left hand, and the end of the fringe
thread in her right, and place the end Of the
thread on the edge Of the stick where the
heading is tied, holding it with her thumb.
Now sit directly in front Of your as.
sistant aud take loop Of the head
ing IN each hand, holding them
wide apart. while your assistant. holding
the stick thin edge upward and long end
pointing toward you, passes q loop of the
fringe thread between the loops you are
holding apart around the end OF the stick
toward you, and draws it back close to her
thumb. Now pass one loop through the
other, changing loops to the other hand as
you do so, and hold them apart for her to
wind again. Repeat this until your stick
is full, then cut open all except few of
the last loops made, which push to the
other end of the stick, and 60 on again to
any length desired, cutting open your loops
of heading, and tying in more when they
become too short to work with TAXA CARA
to cut and tie so that knots will not come
together in the heading. This is tedious to
read, but simple, rapid and pleasant to do;
and much variety can be made by using
different sorts and colors Of yarn ia fringe
and heading. Two or more colors of fringe
can be made alternately, in which case the
threads need not be broken and tied each
time, but allowed to run along the heading.

William Ashley, just returned from
Ell Paso, says the town is booming,
though there is not a great deal Of

is running passenger trains into Ell
Paso, and the construction trains are
now running about thirty.fve miles
south Of Ell Paso. Passengers we're
delivered, at San Elizario some
time ago, though no regular trains
were running to this point. There is
no particular excitement at San Eli

laboring people are in demand and are
making money. Mr.. Ashley says there
are from eight hundred to thousand
people now at the Texas Pacific cross
ing of the Pecos, about sixty miles
above Stockton, and hordes Of good
poor people are Aocking into the
country. At the Pecos crossing, where,
six months ago, the savage red man
could roam at will, now quite a civil
lied air exists, and it is thought
that here the principal town between
San Antonio and El Paso will
be established. There is an
abundance of water here, and fine
country about for stock and farming
purposes. At Eagle Springs, on the
Southern Pacific, the Texas Pacific
aud Southern Pacific roads separate,
the former running south and the
latter east. Mr.. Ashley says the
Southern Pacific is pushing ahead
with Cinnamon thicker than leaves in
Valambrosa. The Celestials carry
with them copper kettles in which
they cook their rice, They put into
the kettles about half barrel of rice
and drop bits Of bacon into it. When
thoroughly done the rice is eaten with
sticks after the native manner, and
Ashley says he never saw so much
rice tossed between a mans jaws in his
life as Chinaman can send there with
his twigs. The Chinese grading forces

have Cinnamon who have lived in this
country long enough to learn theEng-

on the construction of the Southern
Pacific are described as most beautiful

road, and everything is moving along

A sTiser's Hoard,

Elnira Gazette.l
Ezekiel Chaplin, Of Pittsfeld, 0tse-
go county, died recently, leaving, it is
supposed, no property. Soon after his
death, however, the sum of $4,000
was found in an old box under his bed,
and be was discovered to be the pos
SCISSOR of bonds, securities and avail
able assets in addition to the amount
of more than $4,000. His habits in
dictated that, instead of being the pos
SCISSOR of so much wealth, he was
extremely poor. His avarice and
economy had led him to eschew
wearing of boots or shoes except in the
coolest weather, while his clothing
was little better than that of the most
unfortunate tramp. His whole object
in life seemed to have been to save.
He bore a very fair reputation in the
community in which he lived. Others
will now spend his money who will
doubtless bless his memory-and his
economy.

An important feature of Southern
trade with the North is the, vegetable
and fruit traffic, which is growing to
very large proportions, and increases
with transportation and refrigeration
facilities. The Philadelphia North
American says Of the trade there:
"a stroll through the produce mar
kethouses and places gives the best
evidence of the advanced state of veg
citation in the Southern States as com
pared with the more Northern and
Middle States, and it may be remark
ed that the quality has considerably
improved within the past few years.
The supplies come in very rapidly,
and this has a tendency to keep the
rates down to very low figures. Large
quantities of watermelons aud canta
loupes arrive freely from North Caro-
lima, while apples, pears and potatoes
come from Norfolk, Va, and Mary
land. The supplies Of potatoes are
so heavy that the best Of them we're
selling yesterday at one dollar per bar
rel, equivalent to two bushels and
three pecks. Apples in excellent
order were selling at twenty-five cents
per half bushel basket. There are
also pretty heavy supplies Of toma-
toes, squashes, beets, cabbage, plums
aud pears, and it is very evident that
for some time the market will be
oversupplied with these articles"
