A WALL STREET ECHO.

Instead of the New York Bankers asso-
citation inviting Mike Harter, of Ohio, to
talk gold trust to them at Saratoga yes
terday, it would have been far better for
their cause to have asked such a man as
George Rutledge Gibson, one of their
own members, or Banker st. John to say
few words. Either of these gentlemen
could give the New York bankers point
ers that would set them to thinking hard.
For instance, Mr.. Gibson, who is just
home from Europe, speaks of the extreme
Importance of an early awakening in this
country to realizing sense of the value
of bimetallism and comprehension of
the merits of the question. 81 believe
that large rise in silver is inevitable in
the next few MONTHS" he said. 81 object
to the application of the word franks to
large bodies of men because of their
opinions on silver or any other question.
If they are wrong let their opponents
demonstrate the fact with dignity. If
they are not wrong the strength of their
position will assert itself. The Adolf
tionists we're at one time regarded as
'cranks.'" This is pretty good coming
from Wall street man.

TRICKY JOURNALISM.

Ambassador Eustis certainly didn't say
the things attributed to him in an alleged
interview printed in the Paris Figaro.
Nobody but fool would talk that way,
and Mr.. Eustis lacks whole lot of being
that. This journalistic fake brings to
mind the fact that nearly all of the metro
politan newspapers resort to methods
most questionable to secure expressions
from men prominent in public affairs.
Nine times out Of ten they are misq noted
and very frequently it happens that the
interviewer never talks at all with the IN.
teryiewed. The New York and Chicago
press is notorious for this shameful dis
regard of journalistic decency. Nearly
every public man in the west has fallen a
victim to such methods. If western news
papers resorted to such plan to fill
their colvmns they would be exposed and
cone emned on every side. II isn't at all
creditable to the eastern press to indulge

Black Marble.

1t is not generally known that there is
no true black marble on the markets OF
the United States except what is i'm
ported from Belgium, and none is now
known to exist in America aside from
our own here in the vicinity of White
Oaks. It is said by those in position
to know that the demand for this class OF
marble would be practically unlimited
could 1t be supplied at such price as
would enable consumers to use it at
something like reasonable cost.
The lodges found here, while not con-
tanning altogether pure black, show
layers of strata which are free from
streaks of white or colors. With rail-
road transportation the product of these
q uarries could be delivered to dealers at
about the price Of other good grades of
marble.
As to ths9 ,iality of our deposits one
of the most experienced men in the
United States in this line of industries,
Mr.. Geo. G. Underhill, of RUTLAND, VT,
after testing sample sent him the pres
ent year, pronounces it "a l." This
opinion only corroborates those of a
large number of other marble dealers
and workers who, from time to time,
have tested and passed upon the quality
of the marble found to exist in large
quantities near this place. All have
spoken of it i'm the highest terms. Speci-
mems have been sent to Denver, Colo, FL
Paso, Tex Chicago, Oskaloosa, Ia, st.
Louis, Indianapolis, Fort Scott, Kas.,
and other places, the reports from all of
which have been favorable. If, upon
thorough and systematic development, it
is found to he as large in extent and to
retain the uniformly good quality which
present conditions and explorations in
dictate, there would result from this in
dustry alone large tonnage for the rail
road which could command it's output.
There are several hundred acres of this
marble, already disclosed in the i'm
mediate vicinity of White Oaks and
some groupings in other localities in this
region, and there is no apparent reason
why it will not soon become the basis of
an industry which shall, when it is
reached by railroad, send a steady stream
of its valuable product to the markets of
the world.-White Oaks Eagle.

reply to one on the question of the Ute

subject, suggesting the advisablity and
necessity of establishing a post in this

n Truth Tersely Told.

Political storms are brewing through
out the country which threaten disaster
to all the old time leaders. The interest
taken in national affairs by the rank and
file the past few years has opened their
eyes to the hollow shams that are paraded
before them as reform movements. The
people are becoming heartily sick of it
and the party which survives will have to
present something that will offer real
substantial relief from the present sys-
tenn of government as administered by
laws made by and for the benefit of the
moneyed class.-Raton Reporter.

THE GREAT FREELY.
A Luminous Insect of the West TndI
ToIn

A Luminous Insect of the West india
Islands.
The great frefy-elater noctilucus-
is an inhabitant of the savannahs of
most of the warmer parts of America
and the West India islands. It is said
to attain the length of an inch and
half. In the gloom of night these flies
are extremely luminous, and the effect
is brilliant. The light chiefly proceeds
from four parts, viz, from two gland
ular spots behind the eyes, and one
under each wing. They have the pow
er to cut off the light at will, in which
case the glandular spots become per-
fectly opaque. The light of this won
derful insect by itself is such that if
the creature be held in the palm of the
hand, print or manuscript is as easily
read as by candle. The aboriginal
natives cage these creatures and make
use of them, it is alleged, as lanterns.
Ladies adorn themselves with this
electric-like luminary.
It is related of Don Domingo Condo, of
Columbia, that he would appear on the
evening promenade with large FREELY
ornamenting the buckle of his broad
hat, while band of smaller luminous
insects surrounded it. The same Span
lard lighted his palace with fref1ies in
silver cages. The display must have
been enchanting, for at one time the
light is ruddy. at another the tinge is
greenish, then there is a change to
golden yellow. It is stated that when
the Spaniards were about to land on e
of their expeditions against Mexico, a
panic was caused by these luminaries.
The host of fitting lights on land was
supposed to be an indication of the
enemy arousing their camp to resist
the attack.
When the English were attacking
the West India islands, the firefiies
were taken to be Spanish army ad-
vancing with burning matches against
them, and the upshot was hasty re-
treat to the ships.-All the Year

SKIN DRESSING. BY WOMEN.
The Work as It Is Done by Indian Squaws
and ESkimOs.

The Work as 1t Is Done by Indian Squaws
and EskimOs.
In her tanning and skin dressing
work the savage woman's problem was
to remove the dermis from the hide,
and leave the hair adhering to the
epidermis. with only a thin portion of
the true skin. If the work were cred
itably done, the surface of the robe,
frequently more than thirty square
feet in extent. had to be uniform in
thicl ness throughout. and she should
not cut through the epidermis once.
The whole must be as pliable, too, as
a WOODEN blanket; the problem was to
reduce hide of varying thickness and
twice too thick everywhere to robe
of uniform thickness throughout with
out once cutting through the outer
part of the skin. Her tools for this
varied with the locality. The Eskimo
women scrape off the fat with spe-
cial tool made of walrus ivory or bone
and plane down the dermis with a
stone scraper. The Indian women cut
off bits of meat and fat and remove the
dermis with hoe or adze. In the
good old days of savagery the Eskimo
woman made her fat scraper of walrus
ivory or antler; her skin scraper was
of finty stone set in handle of ivory,
wood or horn, whichever material was
easiest to procure. But later on, it
may be, the whalers helped her with
steel tools. The Indian woman had
three tools-to-wit: the stone knife for
cutting away the flesh; the hoe-shaped
scraper for splitting the skin; and the
grainer, hoe or chiSel-like tool with
serrated edge to roughen up the inner
side of the robe and give it flexibility.
Besides these, both Eskimo and Indian
had hands and feet and teeth for pull
ing and pounding and br eaking the
grain. They had also a wonderful
supply of pride in their work, and love
of applause, which kept them up to
the mark of doing the best that could
be done with their resources" Otis T.
Mason, in Popular Science Monthly.
