Boston Baked Beans.

The fame of Boston baked beans has
spread far and wide, but it was not un-
til within few years that the world at
large hsl an opportunity to judge for
itself regarding the merits OF the ar
ticle. Since baked beans have received
the attention of Gamers, Boston's fay
orite dish has acquired fresh popular
ity. The suggestion that baked beans
could be canned to advantage came
from o Colorado dealer in that line OF
goods, who, in conversation with
canned goods manufacturer in this city
in the spring OF 1877 hazarded the
opinion that this food product would
meet with ready sale in the West. The
manufacturer was favorably impressed
with the idea and an order for twenty
cases was placed then and there. 1t
matters not that circumstances prevent
ed Colorado from becoming the first
bean-eatiry etate outside Of New Eng
land; the credit for the suggestion still
belongs to the ''far west" The Boston
firm above referred TO sent sample pack
ages of canned goods TO Messrs. H. X.
& +. b. Thurber, Of New York, who
pronounced them ''just the thing"
Chicago also took kindly TO the new
food product, and the business soon
grew TO large proportions. Although
there are several concerns in this city
engaged in canning baked BEANS one
firm practically monopolize the bust
ness; and in making statement OF
their operations, the rapid growth Of
the industry is well indicated. In 1877.
the first year they began the business,
the sales of canned baked beans were
confined almost exclusively to the east
ern states, and about 200 900 cans were
marketed. In 1879 the trade had ex-
tended all over the country, and some
1880 cans were disposed Of In 1880
Europe and Australia had become pur.
chasers and the sales amounted to 900,-
900 cans, while the present year the
firm proposes to pack and ship away
l,60O, 900 cans. South America is Just
taking hold OF the article, and the de-
mand from this source will swell this
years trade very considerably. After
repeated experiment it Is believed
that the height Of perfection has been
reached, and that canned baked beans
are identical with the dish which for so
many years has been one of Boston's
institutions. They are baked In steam
retorts, and are 80 prepared as TO make
the quality uniform, Packed in three

quarters pounds Of beans and one.ouar.

In the centennial year canned baked
beans were an unheard-of luxury, the
fact that the world will consume ut

An Industrial Revolution.

In q long article, giving the histo
Of tie Blake, Mattries. and Mckay
tents on sole-sewing machines,
New York Tribune thus speaks OF
event that will cause revolution
the shoe trade:
"An event of some Importance
American industrial annals occurre
recently by the termination of the
patents on the Mckay shoe-sewing ma
chinery, and with them the royalties
that have yexed the souls of modern
Crispins. While tho rights in question
have made millionaires of their own
ers, the inventions covered by them
have undoubtedly added much to the
wealth of the whole community. The
tokens of this addition are found in the
rapid development of huge manufac-
turing interest, the growth of valua-
BILE export trade, and the cheapening
of such product Of such universal ne
cessity as boots and shoes.
"The shoe manufacturers have long
been resting under the burden of these
royalties. GA a single pair OF shoes
they make but small difference-av-
eraging say 2 cents pair-but in fac
tories where thousand cases of shoes
are made and shipped in week, the
aggregate is considerable. Good oper-
ators, for instance, can sew 500 pairs
of shoes in working day, and several
factories at Lynn and other points
have as many as 100 Mckay machines
steadily at work. The stream of reve-
nue. running into the fortunate associa-
ton can thei efore be imagined.
"The first attempt to get relief was
on the expiration of Blake's original
patent, when the manufacturers held
many conventions and employed able
counsel to break down the claim. Nc
Kay defeated them all, however, by the
shrewd construction of the patents OF
1860, which protected the shoe as a
machine-made product, apart from the
machine itself. An extension OF those
patents was even obtained by the asso-
citation two years ago, and in spite OF
many protests the royalties have been
collected down to the present In fact,
the leases under which the machines
were given out had stipulation,
among others, that the lessee could not
call in question the royalties Of the as

ing on revolt. But the lapse OF years
has now accomplished what neither
lawyers nor conventions could. The
machines will now become the proper
ty of manufacturers who pay $3.50 each
for them, and hereafter it will be open
to any one to make or use them, as
first contrived, without any tax or
hindrance whatever. AS they can be
constructed and sold proftably for
about $75 each, it is expected that their
use will become still moro general,
while new impetus will be given TO
the shoe manufacture by the cessation
of the Mckay royalty.

Extraordinary Longevity in a Dog.


Chou-Chou (Which | am informed
means edible) was for some years the
famous dog of Admiral Sir Henry
Keppel, and was presented to him in
1852, when captain of Ii. M. s. st.
Jean dAcre, by the japanese authori-
ties in japanese Tartary, as rare-
specimen Of the true edible dor of Tar
tary. Chou-Chou, who was then two
years old, was his faithful companion
on board this ship for two years, and
was made great pet Of by both Of
ticers and crew, affordlng them much
amusement from his many peculiar
tiles.
One of the petty officers, Mr.. Jupes,
of the st. Jean dAcre at this period,
still resides at Southampton, and re.
lates many droll anecdotes of the ia
nous Chou-Chou. He was of blue
black color, and stood about twenty.
two inches high, and when in good
condition weighed forty-seven pounds.
One remarkable feature in him was
that the inside of his mouth and his en-
tire tongue was perfectly coal-black.
The Admiral landed Mt Portsmouth
in 1854 and took the dog with him to
his country seat at Bishopstoke, where
he remained the observed of all OBJ
servers until 1870, when he was given
by the Admiral to George Washington
Jones, who had served as paymaster
with him on board the same ship, but
who then was the proprietor of the
Bassett Hotel in the neighborhood.-
The one condition attached to the gift
was that Chou-Chou should not be part
en- with from that house until he died.
The present proprietor of the hotel,
Mr. Alfred WEIGH. who took it in 1871,
also took the dog on the like terms.
and in his possession it died natural
death on May 2S, 1881, aged thirty-one
years--to the great regret Of every one
who knew him.
Chou.Chou took first prize for dogs
of variety Of breed at the Portsmouth
dog show in 1877. BY disposition he
was very amiable and good-tempered,
and showed strong affections. He be-
came much attached to Mr.. Wclch's
children accompanying them to school
of morning and always going unbid-
den to fctcn them home OF an after
noon. OF course in so long a life he
had many "hair-breadth 'scapes," the
most precarious being that he was once
run over at Bassett by coal cart,
when both his forelegs were broken
With great care, however, he was per-
fectly renstated again. A. H. Bulley
