There were doubtless several more

is feared now-2:30 a.m.-that the
number of dead will reach fifteen

Olsen, Of NermilliOn University,
Dakota, who had gone to see a
friend. He jumped from the top
floor and was instantly killed.
! a.m.-The number OF lives lost
IS over half n dozen and possibly ten
or more. The building is an eight

Avenue and Fourth Street. 1t is
occupied by the Tribune, Star (even-

On these two floors there were near
ly a hundred persons employed
when the fire broke out. Access to
the building is 10y way Of an eleva-

that direction. The flames cut of

Making Artificial Ivory.
- York TrIbunel


The smanufacture Of artificial ivory
has become an extensive industry IL
this country, and especially in this city,
during the last few years. This has
been due 10 the scarcity of natural
ivory, which is insu flicient in quantity
to supply the heavy demand for it. NJ
merous ways Of manufacturing 1t have
been employed at different times, but
none so successfully as that in vogue AT
the present day.
An extensive dealer in artificial ivory
said to a reporter the other day that
radical change had been made in the
manufacture of this useful article, and
the direct result is the production of
better and cheaper material. At one
time, and that not long ago, ma GRITTY
of the products were obtained by in
iecting wildwood with chloride OF
lime under strong pressure. But this
formed plates of a slightly yellOwish
hue, which were liable to split or scale
OFT at any moment. The dealer took up
"a large ivory sleeve button from table
and began splitting it with a penknife.
THAT is the kind of ivory that they
sell chiefly on the cheap stands in the
streets, - he said. You see it is easily
Clipped up; and the interior presents a
dirty white that does not resemble nat
ural ivory in the least. Now take a
piece of artificial ivory made after the
improved method, and see the differ
vnce! The plates here are of a pure
white and tough, and more easily
worked into proper forms than the nat
ural ivory itself
But how Is this manufactured" was
asked
''Why, out of the cheapest and sim
plest sort Of material. We collect a large
number Of bones of sheep and waste
pieces of deer and kid skin. Then we
macerate and bleach the bones for two
weeks in chloride of lime, after which
they are heated by steam along with
the skin until they form a fluid mass,
to which is added small quantity oil
alum. This fluid is then filtered anc
thoroughly dried in the air, and al
lowed to harden in bath Of alum
When finally taken out of this bath we
have perfectly white plates, ready to be
worked up and polished into any con
ceiYable shape"

Vast Internal improvements.


The people of the northwest have il
view certain gigantic projects which
would greatly advantage trade if they
were consummated. 1t is proposed that
an artificial river, 200 feet wide, shall
be constructed which shall run from
Chicago southwest to the Illinois river
This would practically unite the MiSsis-
sippi and Lake Michigan. Then, again
there is talk OF turning the trade of the
Canadian northwest, southwark, to the
United States, by constructing Il canal
to connect Lake Winnipeg with QUA lake
system. The Red River of the North,
which forms the boundary between
Minnesota and Dakota ana Which runs
north into LIKE Winnipeg, is navigabie
FROM Fargo, if not from Breckenridge.
A vessel would SO west from Lake
Superior by the 1t. Louis river, cross
over the divide to tho Mississippi river
follow that river up stream $50 miles,
cross over to Fed Lake river, and go
west on that to the Red river at CIR and
Forks, j.. T. ON this route a waterway
requiring less than fifty miles of arti-
fetal canal could be constructed This
would make a channel with S.X feet of
water, which would connect the Missis-
sippi with the lake system and connect
both the lake systems with Lake Win
nipeg, and the whole OF the Saskatche-
wan and Hudson Bay country. This
scheme coutemplates the uniting of
three uasins, that of Lake Superior, of
the upper Mississippi, and Of the Win
nipeg river and lake. lit will cost about
$4,000 to construct the canal, which
will be about as long as the Erie canal
in New Yor.l.
