to the hospital suffering with screw
worms in his throat and nose. He
had laid down under a tree after q

the worms were deposited in his nos

destruction. They penetrated the
roof of his mouth and literally filled
his throat, causing inflammation and
at times making him savagely insane.

The Carson Tribune OF the 9th i'm
slant says: About o'clock last even
ing Mrs. w. D. Keyser passed away
suddenly to the great unknown, and
tlle distress of her husband and chill
dren can better be imagined than
expressed. For about a year Mrs.
Keyser has been ailing from time to
time with choking sensation. Some
asserted that it arose from stomach
trouble, and others said it was caused
from heart failure. DIR. Brigham, a
noted San Francisco physician, who
Is spending the summer at his cot
tage in Lake Tahoe, came to Carson
yesterday 10 assist in an operation
upon Frank Craven, and at the re-
quest of relatives and friends, called
at the Keyser residence to make an
examination of the deceased lady in
order To ascertain II her disorder was
of the heart. Mrs. Keyser was sit
ting with her daughter and friends
on the porch, apparently in better
health than for months, and when
the doctor arrived, went to her room
with her daughter, who prepared her
for the proposed examination.
After questioning Mrs. Keyser as
to symptoms, DR.. Brigham proceeded
to an examination in the region of
the heart, aud the deceased exhibited
symptoms of choking. A stimulant
was ordered, but before its arrival
the spirit of the good lady had fed.
Fear that the doctor would proba-
bly, pronounce the trouble heart dis
ease no doubt excited Mrs. Keyser
and intensified the hearts action,

biiity for the thousands of superduous
females within her lines. many of whom
were without vicarious support, and for
whom there were only the most limited
means of sclf-support. At that time
there were S57, 529 women in the State,
only 1872, 906 of whom were engaged in
pursuits which gave them a livelihood.
At that time an appeal was made to the
state Legislature to encourage in every
possible way the employment of women
In as many branches of work as were
suited to them. The result has been an
indirect, cut marked one, as is shown
In the statistics of pamphlet recently

reau of Labor, in which it appears that
lin 1885 the number of females in the
State had increased to 1.OO9, 257, and
exceeded the number of males by TO- 1873,
and the number employed in gainful pur.
suits was 800, 900. The number of the
employed had increased, therefore, from
less than 22! per cent. to nearly 30 per
cent. of the entire female population.
The total for 1885 does not include |, $50
women who were partners in manufac-
turing industries, nor II, $50 who were
stockholders in such industries" The
increasing industrial tendency is shown
in the fact that while in 1875 there were
80, 9l6 women furnished with work at
their homes, i'll 1885 the number had
fallen to 1888. OF those engaged in
industrial employment, 81, 521 were en-

making clothing, and II, 800 were In
boot and shoe factories, 1859 were

The statistics collected hv the British
Board of Trade in regard to the total
number of persons employed in the in
dustries in Great Britain show some very
interesting results. The wages were as
certained of twenty eight per cent. of
those employed in the cotton mills,
twenty-six per cent. of those in the
wooden industries, twenty-six and a half
in wOrsted, and thirty.six in linen. The
average earnings in the cotton industry
were $3.50 year, S175 in the wooden.
$40 in the worsted and 1925 in the
linen. When the full result is ascertained
the figures NAV be slightly changed, but
they are not likely to vary greatly from
those given here. These results are not
what might be called stimulating, says
the New York -Neics, even il fair con
sideration be given to the cheaper cost
of living, and it is not singular that
many operatives leave Great Britain and
come to the United States, where they
can get SO much higher wages.

The mcerschaum is first cut on cir.
cular saw into piece little larger than
the pipe. If the cutting shows holes or
cracks the piece is cast aside. Then il
is soaked in water for fifteen minutes
and cut the rough shape with a knife
Then IA hole is drilled through it and il
is turned with half motion. After the
turning the stem is inserted. 1t is
smoothed off when dry. boiled in war
and polished; then it is ready to be
sold.
The amber is worked with chisel and
turning wheel. The chisel is sharp and
razorlike. A clumsy operator would cut
his fingers off with it. An old operator
takes the piece Of amber in his hand
and rounds it with the chisel, the fore
finger OF the left hand serving as a guide
for the chisel to play. When it is rounded
it IS held against the face of a rough.

This is for the more common and
cheaper amber stems, the kind that are
put in brierwOod pipes. which sell for 50

quarter or half hour to finish one of these
stems. A stem for a more costly pipe
will take a day. The shortest time in

time has to be added. Workmen have
spent months on carving one pipe.
