The Nitro-AlkaIine Tibre Comnauv.

A corporation was organized in this
city yesterday afternoon under the name
of the Nitro-Alkaline Fibre Company,
with capital of 100000, that may
revolutionize the manufacture of wood
pulp. The process is covered by letters
patent granted Mrs. Helen L. Palmer
and Adna It. Denison by the United
States, Canada, Norway, Sweden, Ger
many, France, Austria, and Belgium.
Previous to the development of this pro-
cess, all chemists declared that nitric
acid could not be used successfully in
the manufacture of wood pulp, but by
its use iu combination with caustic soda,
pulp superior to the best soda pulp has
been made under this process, at mar
vellous saving in time and expense over
all other methods.
The charter of the new company per-
mits the manufacture of all kinds of
wood. straw and other vegetable pulp;
constructing and operating pulp mills;
and licensing other persons and corpor-
ations to use the new process.
Poplar fibre made under this new pro
cess SO closely resembles spruce fibre in
strength. length and tenacity, as to de-
'ceive some of the most expert pulp ma
kers in the country, who declared it must
be spruce fibre.
The president of the company is
Charles W. Richardson; vice president.
Adna T. Denison: treasurer, Harry R.
Virgin; directors, G. W. Richardson, Adj
ma T. Denison and Helen L. Palmer;
clerk, Edward M. Rand.

The wonderful skill he exhibits, the
brilliant effects he produces, the bravu-
IN as we'll as delicacy with which he
adorns his themes, the ingenuity with
which he makes his beautiful instru-
ment describe the boldness of a sonata

of his performance that must be heard to
be appreciated.
Mrs. Aptommas is a harper of no
