ARTIFICIAL TEETH.
How They Are Made and of What
They Are Composed.

where do false teeth come FROM"
said q Well-knoWn bone importer, echo
ing a question that a Philadelphia
Times reporter put to him. Wouldn't
you like to know? Most people. l mag
inc, think that all the false teeth are
made from ivory. That is quite a mis-
taken idea, as the majority of false
teeth are now made from anything but
ivory. We import large quantities of
Walrus tusks for no other purpose than
that they may be made into false teeth.
You go into some big dental establish
ment where the teeth are made and you
will doubtless find the remains of wal
rus tusks lying around, and, indeed, a
highly polished tooth made from a wal
rus tusk is just as handsome though
not so lasting as an ivory one.
"A dentist once came to me for an
elephants tusk, from which a good
set Of teeth might be made for
wealthy client of his. He was to spare
no expense. | found him a tusk which,
being an unusually good one, [ sold
for 81 % a pound, the usual price be-
ing from 50 80 to So 30 per pound. [
afterward learned that the dentist
made 5000 out of that set of teeth.
OF course, it would be impossible for
dentists to sell teeth so cheaply as they
Go now if the teeth were all made from
elephants tuSkS. AS a matter of fact,
so many people are now wearing false
teeth that [ doubt if the ivory suitable
for this purpose could ever be found. [
am told that a good many false teeth
are now being made from vegetable
ivory ivorine, etc. If so, the price of
teeth must go down, naturally, and in
time the toothless one will probably
be able to replenish his mouth for an
absurdly low sum. A set of teeth for
81 % concludes the dealer laughing,
would create a boom in false teeth

CLEVELAND AND A THIRD TERM.
y Statement From Banker Benedict
on the subject.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-When seen
this morning relative to a statement
published in a morning paper in this
city, stating that President Grover
Cleveland would never consent to stand
for a third term, E. c. Benedict, the
Broad street banker, who was author
ity for the statement, said that in part
the statement was true, but in certain
places it was made too strong.
Il am not positive that he would not
consent to run for a third term said
Benedict. Il am positive of nothing
save ueath and taxes. To set the mat
ter forever right, [ will write what |
have to say
Mr.. Benedict then penned the fol-
lowing and handed it to a reporter:
''All that 1 have said or can say in
reference to President CleveIand's
views as to a third term is inferential.
1 infer from what he has repeatedly
said that he is impatient to be rid OF all
official cares, and unwilling to have
them prolonged under any circum-
stances"
Continuing, Mr.. Benedict said: "It
is not secret to anybody who knows
Mr.. Cleveland we'll as to his views on
this subject. He has been counting the
months until he can be free of the
trammels of public affairs. He feels,
and he told me so, in fact he has told
many of his friends so, that he was u
great fool to accept the Presidency the
second time. He said: I have had
enough OF victory and defeat, and that
is all q man can have in this world
''Have you ever questioned the Pres
ident directly upon the third term
question: was asked.
NO" answered he. but you don't
always have to ask. Collateral ma tiers
will sometimes answer"
Mr.. Benedict then, in confidence, told
the reporter certain actions Of the
President bearing on the third term
question, which would tend to show
that Mr.. Cleveland will not stand
fourth time for the Presidency. Mr.
Benedict in conclusion said: LAS to
being positive that Mr.. Cleveland
will not stand a fourth nomination I
am not; l do not think he will do So"

CASE OF THEODORE DURRANT.
His Counsel Makes Plea for New
Trial.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2l.-For the
third time since the conclusion OF the
famous trial. ". H. 7. Durrant ap-
peared before Judge Murphy for SEN
fence this morning When the case was
called Durrant's attorney, General
Dickinson, arose, holding in his hand a
voluminous affidavit by the defendant
IT consisted of about go typewriter
pages, besides articles from certain
newspapers bearing on the case, ana
published during the trial
Mr.. Dickinson said that later he would
ask permission to file other affidavits.
1t had not been possible to get all the
matter into shape during the short con-
tinuance granted. He then proceeded
to read Durrant's affidavit. The docu-
ment averred that a change of venue
had been requested and denied; that
the public mind had been greatly biased
against the prisoner by the san Fran
cisco press, and for this reason alone it
was impossible for the defense to receive
d fair and impartial trial 1t referred
to the flageIlation administered Charles
H Clark of Boston, an important wit
ness to Durrants alibi. Clark had re-
ceived such a burning up by certain
newspapers of San Francisco that he
became confused and diSguSted and
WithQreW from the case. olI11lidT ale
cations of newspaper interference and
intimidation were made as to witnesses
Lehman, Oppenheim and Mrs Monnier.
The case of Juror Brown was dealt
with at length. This gentleman had
been accepted by both sides and was
finally excused on motion of the District
Attorney.
Passing from the Brown matter, the
affidavit referred to the attempt upon
Durrant's life and also stated that there
was a conspiracy in the County Jail to
kill the defendant. Another point was
made upon the fact that during the
trial the court refused to punish editors
of certain newspapers for contempt in
having commented upon the case un-
favorably to the defendant.
Judge Murphy objected to this por-
his recollection that no request had been
made by the defense to have the editors
punished.
Newspaper articles by the score We're
read by the General, who had not half
concluded his undertaking when court
adjourned.
It is expected that Mr.. Dickinson will
have accomplished his task before ad
journment on Friday. District Attor-
ney Barnes will then file affidavits in
refutation, and thus the tireSome case
continues.
1t is difficult now to hazard an opinion
2S to when sentence will be pronounced
or a new trial granted.

IN CASE OF WAR.
This Country Can be Made Ready for a
Successful Defense by 1900.

WASHINGTON, Nov. %. This
cessful defense in case of war by the
year 1900" Thus spoke Hon. j. H.
Outhwaite a member Of the Board of
Ordnance and Fortifications, after a
tour of inspection of the several plants
in the East, where the work of con-
structing and assembling ordnance is
conducted.
IF pushed by the stress of necessity,
how soon could the country, with its
present facilities only, be put in a con-
ditiOn for defense?" was asked.
Within two and a half years
How many plants are at work now
turning out guns and gun material?"
The steel works at Midvale and
Bethlehem, Pa; the Watertown Miss,
and WaterVleit, n. Y, arsenals. Besides
these, which are in large and success
full operation" said Mr.. Cultivate,
there is concern at Cleveland which
is just entering upon a contract for
turning out gun-c carriages"
Gould not the construction of the
carria ges be expedited" was asked,
by engaging other such concerns as the
one at Cleveland and which are numer-
Gus in the Ohio Valley particularly"
THE trouble is that" argued Mr..
Cultivate, IAN entire new outfit OF ma
chinery is necessary to do that class of
work, and as the Government is about
the only customer that can be expected
to enter the field, naturally most manu-
facturers hesitate to incur the expense
incident to the business. OF course, if
war were to break out and the Govern
ment compelled to make terms
with the manufacturers, there would
be no lack of facilities. However, the
board is satisfied that existing con-
ditions provide all that is necessary to
carry out present plans for defense
within the period when by any possibil-
ity the works can be needed"
Mr. Cultivate mentioned that beside
the contract for armOr secured by the
Bethlehem Steel and Iron Company
from Russia, a similar contract had
been awarded by the same Government
to Carnegie, Phipps & Co., OF Pittsburg.
