lieved in official circles that when Presi-

A Revolutionary Waistcoat.

Graham Forester. of Buena Vista.
Ga, has a WaiStcoat that was worn by
the grandfather of Mrs. r. V. Forester
before the Revolutionary war, which
would make the garment now about 125
years old. 1t was made from cotton
goods, the cotton of which was picked
from the seed by hand, carded.
spun, woven and made up at home
by the good old-fashioned housewife,
who was helpmeet as we'll as help
eat. The cut of this old piece of wear
ing apparel bears the mark of antiquity
in fashion as we'll as texture. 1t is cut
low in front to show the old-fashioned
rutfied shirt, with immense armholes
that nearly run out at the bottom, and
its size leaves the impression that it
was worn over the bay window of a stout
old man.

Queen Vic's First Hoped Skirt.

The following anecdote is told to
Illustrate the readiness with which
Partisan fashions are adopted, even by
the most rigidly patriotic of princeSses.
At the epoch of the arrivaI of Queen
Victoria in Paris i'll 1886, on a visit to
the emperor and empress, the latter
had just brought hoped skirts into
vogue. The queen forthwith send off a
messenger to purchase one for her, and
on her next approach before her impe-
rial host and hostess her skirts were
expanded into the new and fashion
able amplitude. But her majesty had
not comprehended the necessary meth
DDS of tying the tapes that held the hoops
i'll place, and her crinoline presented
an extraordinary and shapeless aspect.
1t was the emperor himself who. with
his own imperial hands, set the rebel
ious petticoats to rights, and gave to his
royal guest a lesson as to the proper
method of dOnning the neW-fashioned
adjunct Of feminine costume.

a tempest of rain, wind and hail on the
mountains near the Yellowstone river.
Lieut.. Edwards, of Washington city,

and led mis- horse. Our colored
bny-William Hall, of Western
New York, dubbed by US "Chau-

out of the carriage to pick some wild
flowers for Mrs. Cox. He brought them
in, whereupOn Lieut.. Edwards reached
out to add his quota by grasping a tall
stalk of blue flowers. He missed his
mark, but Hofer's horse CALAMITY picked
the flowers with his mouth, gave few
steps to the side of the carriage and
passed them in. Was there ever more
elegant politeness, or finer animal
since Bucephalus?
''Even quadrupeds in the park have

our party. He seemed pleased to know
that he had immunity under federal
jurisdiction, and so reeiprocated the
humanity by civilized recognition"

SECOND FACT = They

THIRD FACT-That the

thing when they see it, and
you, dear reader, if you
will devote a few minutes
to thought, must admit that
there is no class Of men so
well dressed in st. Paul
that they can be distin-
guished from their fellows
by the fact Of their having

sULPHITE FIBRE WORKS.

THIS LARGE INDUSTRY WILL BE READY
FOR BUSINESS FEBRUARY ia DEs-
CRIPTIoN OF THE WORKS.
A Times reporter drove up to the
Sulphite Fibre Works Saturday after
noon. lie was cordially received by
Manager Hess, who showed him around
the institution. The first place visited
was the dock, where were piled 1900
cords of spruce, which was purchased
at st. Mary's river, Canada. The
spruce is cut into pieces four feet long
and conveyed from the dock to the saw
mill OH an elevator. In the saw mill
there are seven large circular saws and
two machines to take the bark off of
the timber. In this mill the spruce is
cut up into pieces one and one-quarter
inches thick. After the wood is cut up
into pieces it is floated through ilume
to the digester building, where are loca-
ted four mammoth digesters, made of
! steel and weighing 40 tons each. These
digesters are lined with brick and are
13 feet two inches in diameter and AZ
feet long. The blocks stay in the di-
gesterS 60 hours where they are steamed
and cooked in acids. At the expiration
of this time the now thoroughly soaked
wood drops down on traveller and is
conveyed to large cylinders, where it is
| broken up into a mush The matter is
then taken from the cylinders and
placed in the paper machine, where it is
run between II large cylinders filled
with steam. When it comes out it is
in rolls and is ready for shipment. All
of the machinery is very intricate and
of the best make.
Six thousand cords Of wood will be
used every year and it will take 700
gallons OF water every minute during
the "a hours of the day to supply the
works.
-Four large boilers, one l50-horse pow
er engine and one 75-horse power engine
will furnish the power.
The entire building will be heated
by steam aud workmen are now engag-
ed in putting in 100 Edison iucandes-
cent lights. Two double steam pumps
continually pump water into the large
tanks through an eight inch main. The
water is brought from Black river
Concrete floors are in every room.
The works arc divided as follows:
Saw mill. boiler room, boiler house, ell
CINE house. work room, digester build
ing. pump house, acid house, sulphite
furnace and store house.
The acid for carrying ON the business
is manufactured on the ground, and
for this purpose large tower has been
built TO hold the necessary tanks and
mains.
Manager Hess Informed the reporter
that he expected the works would be in
running order by the middle of Febru-
airy. Over 30 men will be given steady
employment the year round.
The works are the most elabsrste Of
any in this section of the country and
cost mint of money. They are credit
