felt hats turned up and fastened with

Pineannle Cloth.

The finest pineapple cloth comes
from the Philippines, but very good
tissues are turned out wherever there
are Malays, and of late years by Mon
golians and other communities. The
thread is obtained from the pineapple
leaves in ONE curious way which sep.
arates the fine flament from all the
other vegetable tissues. 1t is then
partially dried and bleached in the
sun, and is then carded and spun.
After its spinning and before it is
thoroughly dry, it is woven on the
old-fashioned looms, which are busy
to-day in Asia. The technical skill
possessed by the spinners and weavers
is truly admirable. Men are too
clumsy for the work, and women have
a practical monopoly of it, but even
among them there are many whose
eyes and fingers are not quite delicate
enough to distinguish between the
thickness of one thread and another.
The weaving is done within doors and
usually in a Malay house, whose BAN
boo framework, walls made of leaves
end heavy matched roof, keep the in
terror quite dusty and damp. When
produced the cloth is plain in color or
else made according to Malay tastes.
The finest quality of cloth is 80 fine as
to be practically translucent, and
some tissues which we're worth more
than their weight in silver would
stand successfully the test Of the In
dian rajah. who would accept no cloth
unless he could draw the whole roll
through his signet ring.-Atlanta

The growth OF tn> postofice bust

ward rise had started again in full
force, and the lumber of postofioes in
the country 4'eached 42,oo9. There

United States, and the number is con-

Judge OF Grand Onera.

1t is customary at the opera house
in Mexico for q judge of the perform
auce to be appointed, whose duty it is
to see that other artists are not sub
stituted for those advertised; that the
waits between the acts are not too
long and that things generally r
managed to the satisfaction of the pub
lie. It is said that on one occasion,
when Patti was singing in a company
managed by Mr.. Grau, strict orders
had been given that no one was to be
admitted behind the scenes. 1t hap
pened that the son-in-law of President
Diaz had been appointed judge and he
was refused admittance. On leaving
he gave orders to arrest the man who
had opposed his entrance. Not find
ing him the soldiers arrested another
man, who, not being able to speak
Spanish, was marched off to prison, and
it vas several hours before the matter
was explained.

A Monster Jubilee Pie.

A large assemblage of visitors was
attracted to DENLY Dale, says the New
castle Chronicle, when the gigantic
pie with which the inhabitants COM
memorated the Corn Law Jubilee was
cut and served. The pie contained
1920 pounds of beef, $50 pounds of
veal, 112 pounds of mutton, sixty
pounds of lamb and the crust was
made of 1920 pounds OF -four and 100
pounds of lard. The pie was prepared
by ladies of the village, assisted by J.
". Spivey and T. Dearnley.
The meat was first cooked separate
ly. then put into a dish of three.
eighth-inch steel plates, ten feet long,
six feet six inches wide, one foot deep
and weighing about half ton. This
was specially made by ". G. Holmes
& Co., of Huddersfeld. The crust was
then put over the meat, and the whole
pie was baked in an oven thirteen feet
long, nine feet wide and two feet high
inside, specially designed and con-
structcd by Allott Brothers, of DENLY
Dale. The gross weight of the pie
and dish was about 1000 pounds. The
load was conveyed on Saturday morn.
ing from the oven to Norman Park on
a wagon drawn by fourteen horses
and was on view in the park till 4
o'clock in the afternoon. At o'clock
there was a procession of walters,
committee and the DENLY Dale Brass
Band to Norman Park. Sixpence was
charged for admission to the park, and
a shilling for admission to the %inclos-
ure, which entitled the visitor to a
specially designed plate containing a
portion of the pie.
W. Wood, q member Of the commit.
tee, presented to Frank Naylor, the
President, q pair of monster caryers
(the knife being thirty-three inches
long and the fork twenty-five inches),
with buck horn handles and silver
mountings. Mr.. Mayor cut the first
portion OF the pie, and other members
of the committee served portions to
the people assembled. The bulk Of
the pie was soon disposed of. A fire.

The receipts were in aid of the local

When migrating, $4,000 larks have
