GEN. HARRiSON'S RELICS.
He Has a Drawer Full of Souvenirs of
the Hard Cider Campaign.

indianapolis Special to Philadelphia Press
Relics of the campaign of 40, when his
grandfather was elected President, are re-
ceived daily by Gen. Harrison from all
parts OF the country. The most OF them
come from old wings vino were enthusiastic
admirers and folio wers of "Old Tippe
canoe.n and with hopes that they will bring
him good luck their cherished mementoes
are forwarded to the grandson Of their old
hero These relics are kept i'll large drawer
in an upstairs room and are given rover
entail care. Mr.. d. S. Alexander, the gen
erals private secretary, while placing i'll the
collection this afternoon an old log cabin
button received from some town IN New
York, exhibited to a correspondent the con-
tents of the drawer.
The collection consists chiefly of buttons,
coins and badges-emblems of the log cabin
and hard-cider campaign-all of which bear
designs or inscriptions that were popular at
that time Among the oddities is a glass
sauce dish in which appears picture of
Gen. William Henry Harrison with the date
of his election and birth. On nearly all OF
the relics appears the characteristic log
cabin with barrel of hard cider standing
beside the door A piece of copper in imi-
tation of a coin bears the ontiine of pair
of scales, the side ascending representative
of the democrats and that descending of tho
wings, around which is the inscription,
'Weighed in the balance and found want
ing" On the reve Sc side is an outline OF
Gen. HarIison's head.
Ono of tire most interesting things in the
collection is an old log cabin song book,
published by Cincinnati printer. In ii
appear all the Old popular campaign songs
of that time, among which were: "1he
Soldiers of Tippocanoe," n song to the
dirge, mot Drum Was Heard" Gen.
Harrison set to the air, 'Pizen Sarpent,"
tion!'' to the tune of Little Pigs Tail, :"
and so on to the number of more than a
hundred. Among the modern contributions
to the collection is the copper gavel used at
the Chicago convention, an oak gavel pre-
sented by some admirer and specimens of
all the new badges that have been issued by
dealers in campaign goods.

Tho Oldest stercotyper.
From the Boston Traveller.

Timothy II. Carter, who is as sprightly
as many men score of years younger, is
the man who introduced stereotyping in
Boston Mr.. Carter's name may be found
in school books as "A stereotyper as early as
about 1917, more than seventy years ago.
His foundry was then in Salem street, in a
building adjoining Christ church, and there
it was that he set up that business, new to
Boston and not very much required in
printing. The Impression is that Mr..
Carter's SUCCESSORS became the
Boston stereotype foundry, which
was carried on Tor many
years as a corporation In connection with
the typo foundry. 1t thon, as separate
business. passed into the hands Of a coop
erative company, of which the late Charles
j. Peters was one Of the members As such
it was con inued some twenty-five years, at
times quite profitable, when, from severe
losses aud the death Of many members, it
came into the possession Of Mr.. Peters
There are yet some of the old members who
are living, but none are more active than
the protector Of the business, who is well
nigh il not more than % years of age, and
living in Newton.

A LEAP FOR LIFE.
How a Harris County Man Crossed
Mulberry Greek.
From the Hamilton (Ga9 Journal.

From the Hamilton (Ga.) Journal
1t was in the sixties. Mitchell's bridge
across Mulberry creek was tie tallest in
Harris county A swell in the creek had
misplaced an arch and a dozen men had as
sembleu to repair the damage. The flooring
for twelve feet had been removed. 1t was
twenty-five feet to the water beneath.
Suddenly the hammers ceased and the
men listened intently to the approaching
chatter of horses hoots
ITS jess, by ganny," said one.
Hes splittin' the wind, too" said an
other.
THAT little FLY knows how to pick up
her feet, and she don't study about it,
neither" said number three.
Dang my buttonsl"
This was said Just as the rider appeared
in sight, pres enting a picture of robust
manhood, guiding with unerring hand the
fleetest little mare in Western Georgia, He
was clad in fine broadcloth suit, his feet
in pair of the best cllf-skin boots, and
they armed and ornamented with neat,
small spurs.
On he came.
The mon were lost in admiration and
stood with mouth and eyes open, transflxed
to the spot
He nearod the bridge.
As if by magic the crowd were awakened
to the horrible death that awaited the man
should he attempt to pass over the bridge.
''Stop stopl" shouted the men.
The floors up!'
you can't cross!"
The horses haofs struck the bridge.
Head him offr'
He'll be killedf'
stop his horsem
And they all rushed to the middle of the
bridge
Clear the trackm whooped the impetu-
GUS rider, and the way was cleared.
He reached the brink. The gallant mare
paused-trembled. The men stood breath
less. The rider planted himself firmly in
the saddle, gathered the reins tighter, and
sank the spurs deep into the sides of his
mare.
She squatted, leaped wildly into the air
and landed safely beyond the awful gap.
With unslackened pace, and without a
sound save tho gathering of the horses
hoofs, both steed and rider disappeared
over the hill, having surpassed anything of
the kind in the history of Georgia

Studying Technical Names.
From, the Boston Bitdnet.


There is one young Bostonian who is now
assiduOusly studying the technical names of
the different materials used by young
ladies. Not many months ago he attended
aparty given a Boston social organization
and there met a young lady who was ex-
quisitely attired in tulle. Last week at a
Maine resort he was presented 10 tho same
young lady, who recalled to mind the
former meeting by saying: at seems to

sented to young lady whose dress was
made of material like mosquito netting. y
1t was an awkward speech. The young
lady looked as if she was struggling with
the problem as to whether it was best to
faint or to laugh, while the cuprit gazed
eagerly about as though praying for an
earthquake or for some one to shout "fire, ~
as welcome distraction.

Blaine's Washington House.
From the Neu York. Grarhfc.


The very large and costly residence
erected IN Washington several years ago
by James G. Blaine has not been a source
of much enjoyment to its owner, as ne has
not lived in it. but leased it to Mr.. Letter,
the retired millionaire dry goods merchant
of Chicago, who came to Washington four
years ago with his family. The political
gossips declared that Mr.. Blaine was afraid
to accept so grand residence while before
the country as presidential candidate
Opinions differ as to how much money the
Maine man has, but he is generally ranked
millionaire He was poor editor when
the Maine people sent him 20 the legislature,
and lie was kept in politics right along until
his defeat in 1884 for the presidency, but he
had an anchor to wiadward all the same
and made lots of money. His friends
have always claimed that ne made
his money legitimateiy, and his polit-
ical opponents charged him with profit
ing at the expense of tie people while
in high official positions. This talk is dying
out since Mr.. Blaine is no longer even a re-
mote possibility for tue presidency; but he
may return to public life in some way, and
Washington people are specializing already
about the prospects OF tho Blanes taking
up residence there again and occupying
their magnificent house that has been leased
to the Letters. Should Harrison and Nor
ton, by some hook or crook be elected, it is
conceded that Mr.. Blaine may be asked to
take place in the cabinet, and that would
mean, Of course, his reinstatement in the
department of state However, compare
lively few people around Washington think
that Harrison and Morton are going to be
victorious, and the feeling is that if Mr..
Blaine over again enters public fe he will
go back 10 the senate. Senator Frye's term
expires next month, and the legislature TO
be chosen next fall will elect his success
sor. 1t is believed by some that if Harrison
should become President, Blaine would like
to be on the foor of the senate in the capac-
ity of leader of the administration party.

The newest novelty heard of these many
days is the action of woman possessed OF
ample means who has placed her two daugh-
tiers III the kitchen of a friend to receive
practical education. The young girls have
been sent to the best schools, are fair anna
teur musicians and dabhle i'll embroidery
and water colors. They dance, play tennis
and are clear-complexioned, curly-headed,
bright creatures. With the bride of year
III Europe held before them as a glltterlng
lure, they have been induced to fall in with
their mothers proposal that for four months
they should be received into nelghbor's
establishment, performing all the duties OF
waitress and chambermaid and assisting the
cook. The lady who has carried through
this unusal processing is a return lmporta-
ton for the American girls who have mar
ried abroad. She was a & erman fraulein
