COLLAPSE Of Roller Skating.

81 have never seen business collapse Ike
roller skating" said an Ann street merchant
You see these new nickel plated roller skates
1t cost from So to So to manufacture them.
The average price couple Of years ago was
SIS pair, and now can't sell them at seventy
cents.
"You see the whole business has COLLAPSED,
from Maine to California. The public got it
into their heads that the Kinks were public
nuiSanoes, and acts were passed in this city
and that city suppressing them, or making
the terms Of their existence so onerous as vir-
tually TO force them out OF the business It
was hard on the rink proprietors, and hard
on the people who made skates. We second
hand dealers don't lose anything by it, for toe
goods are almost given to US.
Who are your customersf'
ats funny, but do you know that the
colored population is developing something Of
a tendency toward roller skating' In the
colored quarters of the city half the children
may be seen on the sidewalk shod with roller
skates. Don't know why they should take il
up when the whites are giving it up: but iss

How Saratoga Chips Are Made.

"Do Saratoga chips come from SaratOga!"
inquired an innocent reporter of grocer.
Not much" said the grocer. "They are
made in this city, and many are shipped to
Saratoga. But if you want to know all about
them just go up to the bakery and see how
they are made"
AT the bakery It was learned that the con-
Germ has monopoly Of the business in this
city, and that there are only three makers of
Saratoga chips i'll the country. Chips are an
American institution, and are not known
abroad save for soma small lots that have
been exported. The process of manufacturing
is in part a secret. Tke potatoes are peeled
and sliced by machinery. They are washed
and then dried between muslin cloths IL
they were now fried the amount of starch
that they contain would make them brown,
and the secret of the business is to remove all
Of tho starch, so that the chips viii be per-
fectIy white. When this is done they are pus
into the hot grease, and come out curled and
crisp and with the delicious flavor that has
made them famous the world over Said the
manager:
we use seventy-five barrels OF potatoes q
week, keep seven bakers at work ard have
three wagons out delivering. Hotels take
them by the barrel, restaurants take them in
twenty five pound boxes, and for grocers to
serve 10 private families we put them up in
one pound cartons. The dining cars on nearly
all the railroads use them, and we have sent
some 70 England Cities as far away a.

angular CHEEK bones; and these, with his bow
legs. made his appearance suggestive OF two
triangles, one above the other. He wore
thick, heavy pointed shoes of leather and col
ored bands of worsted about his ankles, and
black greasy leggings of whale skin fitted his
limbs as tightly as if they were his own hide.
He had great coat Of reindeer skin with the
fur half worn away and girded in at the
waist with many colored beaded belt, from
which hung white bone handled knife. On
his head was set high pear shaped cap of
blue cloth trimmed with red and yellow, al
most like an empty bag, which for some rea-
son stood up pertly in the air. From under
the cap his long, wiry black hair hung down
sallow, greasy cheeks, which he had chosen t.
shave smooth, though other men of his kind
wear boards of every description of horror

THE TALL SILK HAT.
How the Fashionable Chimney Pot Hat
is Made and Where 1t Originated.

How the Fashionable Chimney Pot Hat
is Made and Where 1t Originated.
Broadway dealer discoursing on the SUBJ
ject of hats to a reporter said: How few
men know how hats are made, and silk hats
in particular. Retrospective old men come
I in here sometimes and tell me about the diff
ferent shapes they have worn for the last
fifty years, and in spite of the vast improve
mentS in the shape and weight of hats made
nowadays, all those old fossils declare for the
hat of fifty years ago that weighed about a
pound. A silk hat is composed of two or
three thcknesses of muslin soaked in gum
shellac dissolved in alcohol. After the proper
stiffness is acquired it is stretched on frames
to dry. The sides are cut in bias strips of the
proper width and the ends are neatly fused
together with hot iron. The top, which is
of heavier material, is fastened by q narrow
strip of muslin coated with shellac. This is
ironed over the edges and keeps the whole
firmly in place. The brim is now put ON.
This is of muslin five times thicker than the
sides and is fitted to the crown by strips SINH
lar to those that keep the top in place These
are called bodies" and after the block upon
which they are made is removed they are
dried.
liz uIyllS TOOin IS ABOUT Twelve 1eeC
square; the sides are lined with steam pipes,
and in the center are a number Of shelves.
1t is very necessary to have the hats dried at
an even temperature all over to avoid weak
spots" From the drying room the bodies are
sent to be covered with the plush This is an
operation requiring the greatest care First,
the underbrm Is covered with cashmere, then
the plush is placed on the overbrim and ironed
down. The top and sides are neatly joined
with hot iron, and no one not in the bust
ness would know a seam was there. The hat
is adjusted on a circular machine that cuts
the brim any width with metrical precision.
After the poisher has removed all dust and
particles it is sent to be trimmed
GAS the hat nears perfection the greatest
skill is required in its handling. The edger
sets the brim and then the curler begins his
work. Upon his deft fingers depend the style
ana finish of the hat. This work is done en-
tirely by hand and is the most important and
best paid branch of the trade
Silk hats We're known in Florence italy, a
century ago. and in 1925 were introduced into
France, where the best bats are now made.
The matters in England continue to celebrate
Nov. % by an annual festival in honor of st.
Clement, the patron saint of the craft, to
whom tradition ascribes the discovery OF the
manufacture of hats.-New York Evening
