GUS sizes. The American Cotton Seed
Oil Trust are now running mill for
making paper from the bulls remain
ing after all the oil has been squeezed
out of the cotton seed. They are con-
templating the erection of a l00'ton
mill for the same purpose. These
bulls have heretofore been considered
worthless. 1t has so far proved so
successful that the trust propose to
erect mills at different points in the
embarrassing country. Of course
this will somewhat revolutionize the
paper trade.
A new mill for the manufacture of
paper from moss has been recently es-
tablished in Sweden. Paper of differ
ent thickness and pasteboard made of
it have already been shown, the latter
even in sheets three-quarters of an
inch thick. 1t is as hard as wood
and can be easily painted and polish
ed. 1t has all the good qualities but
none of the defects Of wood. The
pasteboard can be used for door and
window frames, architectural orna.
ments and all kind of furniture. The
assembly chamber ceiling at Albany,
N. Y, is made of papier-mache. 1t is
a model of its kind, and appears so
like marble as to deceive the most ex-
pert eye. The latest idea is to use pa
per instead of wood for lead pencils
by using patent preparation by
which it can be cut as easily as the
softest wood.-St. Louis Stationer.

Paper is now made to serve for steel
and iron. When strong fiber is used
it can be made into a substance so
hard that it can scarcely be scratched.
Railroad car wheels are made of it,
more durable than iron. A store in
Atlanta, Georgia, has been built en-
tirely of paper. The rafters, wealth
err boards. roof aud flooring are all
made Of thick compressed paper
boards, impervious to water. On &C.
count of the surface of the paper be-
ing smooth and hard il cannot catch
on fire as easily as a wooden building.
1t is found warm in cold and cool in
hot weather. The Breslau freproof
chimney has demonstrated that cook
ing and heating stoves, bath tubs and
pots, when annealed by a process that
renders it freproof, becomes more
lasting than iron and will not burn
out. Cracks in floors around the
skirting board, or other parts of the
room, may be neatly filled by thor
oughly soaking newspaper in paste,
made as thick as putty and forced in
to the cracks with a paste-knife. 1t
will soon harden and can be painted.
Black walnut picture frames are
made of paper and SO colored that no
one can tell them from the original
wood. A paper piano has lately been
exhibited in Paris. The entire case
is made of compressed paper to which
is given a hard surface, cream white
brilliant polish. The legs and sides
are ornamented with arabesque and
floral designs. The exterior and as
much of the interior as can be seen
when the instrument is open, are COW
cred with wreaths and medallion paint
ed in miniature. An Italian monk
has succeeded in constructing an or

A telegram from Laurel, Nd, to
the Free Press shows that there has
been tried there means of transit
which exceeds in speed, if not in
smoothness, the Paris invention. The
train in this instance is run by cleo
tricity, of course, and it goes at the
rate of $50 miles an hour. Now, Mr..
Keely can mote or not just as he
pleases. A train that will 60 1875
miles an hour is fast enough for most
of us, and if in addition to that it
will run so smoothly that we do not
feel the motion, everything ought to
be satisfactory in the motor business
for the next two or three years at least.
The particulars of the $50 mile cleo
trio motor are not at hand, but the
hydraulic motor which is now the
center of attraction at the Paris Ex-
position is one of the most ingenious
things in the world. The carriages
rest on a number of shoes, if they may
be so termed, of steel. These shoes
in turn rest OH hollow wide rail,
with ffanges on each side to prevent
the shoes from slipping of. Water at
a tremendous pressure is forced
through pores at the bottom of the
steel shoe, and in endeavoring to es-
cape it raises the shoe and the car
riage upward, so that the shoe rests,
instead of on the steel hollow rail, up
on very thin film of water. When
this condition of things takes place,
the carriage containing twenty-five
people or more can be showed ahead
by merely touch of finger. I'm
derneath each carriage is stationary
paddle, and all along the track there
are hollow pillars, which, as the car
rlage goes over them, squirt at this
paddle a stream of water at very high
pressure. One squirt sends the car
riage to the next pillar, and there the
water strikes the paddle again, and so
keeps the carriage in motion, The
train is stopped by withdra wing the
pressure of the water under the shoe,
so that the shoe rests OH the steel rail,
and this stops the train so quickly,
that if the end of the carriage were
open, they could shoot the passengers
at the rate of 100 miles an hour for
quite distaDce.--Free Press.

The men who are bowling loudest
about Stree trade" and "pauper labor"
are the very men who have done the
most to depress wages in this country;
who fought the trades unions the most
earnestly; who have imported labor
ers from Europe under contract to
take the place of American working
men, and who have hired the Pinker-
ton butchers to shoot down the latter
when they attempted to assert their
rights. 1t is the greatest mystery in
the world how single laboring man
in the whole country can be humbug-
ged into believing that these men are
in favor of any system which compels
them to pay higher wages than they
otherwise would.-Indianapolis Senti-

wonderful collection. One set Of these
negatives went into the archives of the

the United States tweHty-eight thousand

photography. Again can be seen, exactly
as they looked then, the battlefelds, bat
teries, regiments, forts, picket-posts, Rebel
prisoners, hospitals, the wounded, the dead
on the battlefelds just as they fell, burial
details, burying the dead, the execution Of
spy, and hundreds Of other scenes once so
familiar to US
The funny camp scenes were also taken:
cooking beans, the guard house, riding the
wooden horse, tossing up a darkey in a
blanket, in short, everything of interest
was photographed and is now reproduced,
not by engraving or painting, but actual
photographs, 50 realistic and vivid that It is
not uncommon for soldiers TO pick out
their own pictures at the guns, or in the
