The Kaiser at the Telephone.

Emperor William III. has his own i'm
perial way of using the telephone, says
the Appeal-Avalanche. Despite mis-
takes caused by the emperor's refusal
to name himself at the opening of his
conversation, as other people do, he in
variably introduces his telephoned
orders merely with the words: 81 COM
mand that" and so forth. AS soon as
chief of department hears these
words he motions that his snbordinates
must at once leave the room. The sig.
nificance of this arrangement is sup
posed to be that the chief is having
something of an audience with his
majesty, and that it would be pre-.
sumptuous for person not summoned
to hear the imperial voice to occupy
the room into which its tones are con-
veyed. At the end of the conversation
the emperor walks away without say.
ing "good-by," and the chief with
whom he has conversed must listen
for five or six minutes afterward tc
make sure that the imperial orders
have been completed. Then he calls
back his assistants and the usual Ell.
uuette is resumed.

STORIES OF fALMAGE.
The Great Preacher Rather Enjoys II
Lies Told About Him.

The Great Preacher Rather Enjoys the
Lies Told About Him.
Probably no man in what may be
called public life preserves his equa-
nimity so perfectly when stories about
him with absolutely no foundation
whatever appear in the public prints
as does DIR. Talmage. Not long ago
a dispatch from Massachusetts an
nounced that the reverend gentleman
had purchased blooded bull pup of
most approved fighting qualities, and,
although the story was entirely err
roneous, no one laughed more heartily
at the idea of a clergyman's investing
in canine prize fighter than the
pastor OF the Tabernacle. Apropos OF
this story the doctor told of another
experience of his which evidently
amused him greatly, though some men
would have been annoyed by it.
81 remember" he said, ''some years
ago when left home for the summer
one of the Brooklyn newspapers came
out with long story about how glad
the neighbors were to get me out of
the way for few weeks. According
to the story had purchased cornet,
and life had been rendered almost I'M
endurable upon my block by the dole
full sounds which expelled from the
instrument, often until late at night.
/ don't remember" added the doctor,
laughing heartily, that ever had
cornet in my hand. Certainly it never
occurred to me to buy one, or to try to
play one"
The doctors faith in the Bible is of
the old school style. During these
twenty-four years" he said, in a re-
cent address to his congregation, II
have tried as far as | could by argu-
ment, by illustration and by caricature
to fill you with disgust with much of
this modern religion which people are
trying now to substitute for the re-
ligion of Jesus Christ and the religion
'sof the apostles. l have tried to per-
uadc you that the worst of all cant is
the cant of sllepticism, and instead of
your apologizing for Christianity it
was high time that those who do not
believe in Christianity should apologize
TO you; and have tried to show that
the biggest villains in the universe are
those who would try to rob us of this
Bible, and that the grandest mission
of the church of Jesus Christ is that
of bringing souls to the Lord-a soul
saving church"

TURNING PELTS INTO LEATHEF
The Cost of the Genuine and limitation
ARTICLES.

The Cost of the Genuine and Imitation
Articles.
Very few PEG, Die have any idea Of
the number of different animals which
contribute their skins for the adorn-
ment of pocketbo oks, purses, etc, and
make up the large number of odds and
ends which people find SO useful.
Monkeys, pigs, goats, snakes, lizards,
alligators, sheep, calves, fish, seals and
even birds, all contribute. The great
majority of these skins are imported.
The one thing of Importance in leather
for fancy leather goods is the grain,
says the Trunk and Leather Review,
which influences the price to very
great extent. The number and varie-
ty Of grains is large, and the different
feathers are classified when received
according to the size of the grain I'M
der these several headings-fish, Mo-
rocco, gros grain, Levant, Turkey,
monkey, pig and seal. These grains
are all different sizes, the monkey be-
ing the largest, although the pig and
seal are very pronounced. The fish
grain is the smallest of all. Besides
these feathers there are great many
limitations made-buffing, which is a
split cowhide, and a skiver, which is
split shcepskin. But these can be cas-
| lily told, as what is called hand grain
! is the natural grain of the skin touched
by hand, whereas the ordinary imita-
tions are embossed by machine. Sew
eral other grains raade by machinery
on skiver or buffing are called boarded,
being made by a brass tool which
gives fine straight lines close togeth-
er; the others sho wing wavy effects
or water lines on the skin and dice
grain.
The most expensive leather sells for
from 800 to S110 per dozen skins. This
is the genuine Russian leather, which
has of late temporarily lost popularity.
1t is in gros-grain. Levant goatskins
sell for $50 dozen skins. Seal sells at
from $50 to $50 Cozen, and pig skins
are sold by the Skin at $3.50 or 81 each.
Monkey skins are cheaper, selling at
SO per skin, but these latter are hard
to procure at any price. They are
made up by only enc or two manufac-
turers that we know of in America
into the finest gr;sde of leather novel
ties of the imported skins. With the
exception OF the sealskins, which are
tanned in England, nearly all these
skins are tanned in Germany, although
sheepskins are tanned in France.
A very ingenious imitation of Rus
sian leather has been made of calfskin,
perfumed with oil of birch. 1t is a
dangerous counterfeit, for the reason
that the color is exactly the same, and
the appearance and odor very much so,
often puzzling the untutored buyer.
Time, however, destroys the false odor
and reveals the imitation. The most
important thing now, and the latest,
is to have the Leather novelties which
women carry to match their dress in
color. The houses which import leath'
ers to this country used to send sam
Piles of feathers to Germany and else
where to match, so as to strike the ex
act color. Now silk, cotton stuffs
plush, ETC., are sent instead. Lizard
skins come largely from Borneo, al
well as Germany.

MESA CITY, ARIZONA, SEPTEMBER 8, 1898.
MESA NOTES.

G. r. Hakes and partners, j. K,
Morse, Orrin Merrill and L. E. Lamb
yesterday bonded two claims, the Bull
dog and Highland, to M. Z. Collins, Of
Phoenix, for $55, 900 on six months time.
Mr.. Collins is to sink and develop the
claims to depth Of from 100 to l2O
bonded and Mr.. Wilbur, a baker OF
Mesa, is to get that one for $4,000 on
six months time. This insures the i'm.
mediate development of three other
mines, and if they continue to show up
as good as they look at present the camp
bids fair to become one OF the richest
in the United States. The indications
on these claims are as good, If not bet
ter, than they were on the rich Mann
moth, when first discovered. The
Bulldog, Mr.. Hskes says, has the finest
ledge in the camp, and the ore runs
5000 to the ton. The Bulldog and
Highland lie side by side and are about
| IL miles northwest of Goldfeld. The
Fairstake mine is located about a mile
north OF Goldfeld, on what is known
as Rich Hill. shaft has been sunk
on this claim some twenty-five feet, and
the ledge which at the surface was but
10 inches, has widened to 81 feet, and
is showing up rich. a recent assay run
ming $50 to the ton.
G. r. Hakes and wife and child will
start this evening for a visit to the
worlds fair and reunion of the Hakes
family, which numbers something like
three hundred persons. Mr.. Hakes has
worked hard the last few months and
has in fact been hard working sll his
life and has of late been very success
fui in mining, having been interested
in claims that are bonded for upwards
OF 800, 900, and he thinks it is about
time for rest and to have good time
visiting among friends and relations.
Soren Sorenson returned yesterday
from across the water. Mr.. Sorenson
left here nearly three years ago on q
mission to Denmark, the place of his
nativity, where he performed an hon
orable and successful mission. He was
relieved the latter part OF last month.
He visited the worlds fair on his way
home and other places Of note. His
many friends on the mesa are glad to
welcome the warm hearted, jovial
brother back.
Mr.. NJ. Kncks, our new restaurant
man, wore broad emile yesterday.
His wife and two daughters and son
arrived unexpectedly from Los Angeles,
giving him surprise.
Justice Wharton Of Phoenix, drove
up to Mesa yesterday on professional
business.
Rooney Root, son OF j. II. Root OF
Tempe, was in ldesa Yesterday.
DR.. Brack of Tempe, paid Mesa a pro-
fessional visit day.

Wah Hop has been arrested, charged
with running an opium joint or cellar
in connection with his grocery and gen.

up with public affairs, has given her latest
interference very graceful turn. Every
where subscriptions have been organized
for the due reception Of the Russian visi-
tors, not only for street illuminations. but
for torchlight professions. giant popular
banquets and balls in their honor. Madame
Adam has come forward to invite all
French women to unite in presenting the
wives or nearest female relatives Of the
Russian sailors and officers with a souve-
mir jewel in the form of forget-me-not.
The fetes themselves both at Toulon and
at Paris. are planned on a great scale;
though 1t will be difficult for the French to
equal some of the details Of the reception
given to their own sailors at Cronstadt, st.
Petersburg and Moscow, some two full
years ago. There the common people cut
buttons and pieces of cloth from the uni
forms OF the French officers to preserve
them as relics. But that was gratitude for
value received. The Russian loan was be-
ing effected. Since then over four milliards
of French gold have gone in Russian loans.
French love for Russia, on the other hand.
must arise from that gratitude which has
been defined as "a lively appreciation of
benefits to come"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1893-10-28

for the duties Of the fleet. At first 1t was
intended that all should come up, In relays
but 1t was impossible to prolong the visit
enough to allow this.
The benefit to the general Paris public
from these fetes will be derived from what
1t can pick up in passing from the illumi-
nations and parades. and from a Quickening
Of patriotic pride added to the shower Of
money that will have begun to fall so early
this season upon the worlds capital OF
pleasure. Few Parisians can possibly be
admitted to the dinners, receptions. gala
nights and balls. Even at the gala night OF
the opera ten times as many applicants for
seats, at enormous prices have been re-
FUSED, as the opera can seat. AS 1t Is, no
one Is allowed to pay anything, as all ad-
mittances are by the invitation Of the
French government.
At the press banquet, a large proportion
of the tickets have been sold. at the regu-
lar price of 81 each; but applicants. before
being allowed to pay their ten francs, have
been obliged to be scrutinized; and no one
Is to be admitted unless he Is able to show
some claim or position in society.
Even the municipal ball Of 5000 invita-
lions has its lists completely closed, and
terrible are the tales Of push on the part
Of Parisians and Parfsienhes for the highly
coveted tickets. But the river Is free, the
streets are free. the newspapers are cheap
and war-scares plenty and with torchlights,
red fire. volunteer eloquence in every cafe.
and popular singing and dancing in every
open square. the people Of Paris are bound
to have the greatest week that they have
known for a generation.
STERLING HELLO.
