AN UNIQUE TABLE.
One Just Finished In This City That Took
IL Years to Make.

One Just Finished in This City That Took
IL Years To Make.
Mr.. James M. Sawin, principal OF the
Point street grammar school has re-
markable table recently finished in this
city which will be placed on exhibition in
some convenient locality for the gratifca-
tion OF lovers OF the beautiful and unique.
The table is formed after designs ar
ranged by its owner and Is an exceedingly
hne and artistic piece OF inlaid
work, executed entirely by hand. III
is composed of more than 5000 pieces of
wood, including more than 800 varieties,
representing the wood growth from all
parts OF the world. The pieces are dupli-
Gates from valuable cabinet of wood spe-
cimens collected during period OF more
than 20 years. The designs for the
top OF the table are arranged
mainly in the form OF borders,
drawn largely from ornamentation from
the classic and Renaissance style OF archi-
lecture. To these are added single
border OF Chinese ornamentation-a spiral
based treioi!; another from the most
beautiful of the Egyptian type-the Lotus
ornament, in which the bud and full
blown Hover are the essential designs;
the latter as well as the Grecian Laurel
border, are features in the base.
The center-piece of the top is the an
tique checker board supposed to be OF
Egyptian origin, and invented more than
1000 years before the Christian era, select
ed as most convenient form for exhibit
ing the color and granting of the different
varieties OF weed composing IL.
On two opposite sides of the center
piece Gre fac simile copies OF section OF
the historical frieze of Thorwasden rep
resenting scene in the procession OF
Alexander the Great on the occasion of
his triumphal entry in to Babylon about
three hundred and twenty-five years Il. Z.
The scene selected is that of the gift OF
Persian horses TO Alexander, promi-
nent among which is the coal
black steed Eucephalus. The borders inn
mediately surrounding this center are
fiat surfaces, while the outer border is a
deep moulding OF the Greek Echinus.
The corner ornaments upon the fiat sur
face are taken from forms of snow crystals;
those in the outer border are respectively
representations of the Greek Anthemion,
French Fleur-de-lis, Moorish ornaments
from the Alhambra, and a conventional
form of the Egyptian Lotus.
The standard is a heavy and ornamental
piece OF woodwork. 1t is composed of
thirty-six solid layers of wood, no two of
which are OF the same variety. In the
lower base are four panels, respectively in
laid with designs representing the
National coat of arms, the Rhode Island
coat of arms, the landing of Roger Will
liams and the old stone mill at Newport.
The layers above these panels are either
finely carved or are inlaid with classic or
antique designs.
The mechanical work of the tablet top,
the designing and construction of the
base, are the work of Frank Horsman, jr.,
of this city, and the time occupied in its
construction, together with a duplicate
carried along with It, included the greater
portion OF the spare and evening hours of
the maker for a period OF about eleven
wears.

A Rally Due About Now

The market ought to have
rally and a sharp one but the leaders
on the long side have become
too much discouraged to inaugurate
movement. Yet the short interest may
react upon itself and become unwieldly
and an up turn follow.
The market situation does not offer en-
couragement either to holders or would
be buyers. Prices are again on the decline
and bid fair ultimately to reach a
lower range in the case Of the dividend
payers than any recently established.
The Grangers and some OF the trunk lines,
by reason of their surroundings and out
look are moving towards doubtful divi-
dend level.

was not cheerful one in the speculative

heavy decrease in receipts. Wheat,
corn and oats reached lower
level the first Eamed rejecting a surpris-
ing weakness i'm view of the light move
ment.
A rally should come soon. The main
trouble, however, is that the stocks in
which prices and the short interest war
rant an upturn are surrounded by others
that constantly developed weakness. TAT
time like this the market cannot be made
to use in sections.
Foreclosure In Northcrn Tacific.
Northern Pacific affairs will necessitate
foreclosure. This will relieve the
property from guara tee on the Chicago

branch lines, the Wisconsin Central lease,

to raise funds for improvement is also re-
gurded as certain.
