BULLION EMBROIDERY.
Little shops Where Uniforms Are Made
Gorgeous With Gold.

One sees from the sidewalk of a ouie
street east of Third avenue a big basement
shop where two or three girls are bending
over well worn embroidery frames TIL.
samples of their work displayed in the win
dow show that they are making bullion
embroidery to decorate the coats or caps o
military officers, policemen and other:
whose trades or professions require uni
forms. There is less TO be done in the hui
lion embroidery trade in this city than il
most old world cities, but there is con
slant and growing demand for the handi
work of the bullion embroiderers, and the
trade is ono that keeps its own in spite Of
labor saving devices.
Bullion embroidery worked directly upor
the stuff of the cap or coat is still the prom
er thing for the uniformed man who woult
have all his accoutrements right. The EN-.
broidery shops are usually little places
and the proprietor is sometimes a woman
The frame is n simple device of hard wood
enlarged or reduced in accordance with the
needs of the particular piece of work IL
hand. The embroidcrers are usually girls
OFTEN very young, though the design ers are
sometimes men. Embroidery designing i.
not very difficult business, because little
originality is demanded, since the trade
has we'll established traditions and there
arc plenty of books to guide tho designer
There arc no new designs to be made IN
Masonic. military or naval emblcms, and
even the myriad shooting clubs of the Ger.
man quarter are not likely to require any.
thing that will demand great ingenuity o!
the embroidery designer.
The girls that do the actual work o.
bullion embroidery are often native Amer.
leans though the trade is mainly con.
trolled by foreigners, French and German
Tor the most part. The particular shop
here indicated is managed by a Hebrew.
and the pretty girls visible from the stree;
as they lean over their work seem to have
Jewish features.-New York Sun.

The oll-absorbing topic of conversation
in the stores and on the street and in fact
everywhere else. after the men have
finished their days work, is the Ice. The
frozen substance in all its forms and
phases is open to lots of discussion, which
is participated in by great many. A
number of Randolph residents earn lots CT
money while the ice season is on, and
many of them depend largely on the con
dition of the ice for a livelihood. Advice
received from the Hudson say that about
only onclalf Of the usual crop will be
harvested, which only tends TO please the
ice men in this vicinity. The cold weather
that we have experienced for the past week
or so has made an excellent freeze on
the kennebec, the ice averaging about II
inches in thickness If the cold weather
| continues, it is said by those who know
whereof they speak, the usual amount will
be housed
