INVITATIONS OF BUTTER.
Nearly a Hundred Patents Issued
for Their Manufacture.
Bogus Butter Makers WIN Oppose Ma
tional Legislation Calculated to
Interfere with Their Bush
ness Interests.
Special washington Letter,

1t is not generally known, but it is a
fact, that all of the cows of America
could not produce enough butter to
supply the amount which is consumed
in the states east of the Mississippi
river. The government has issued
nearly hundred patents for various
methods of making artificial butter.
The first imitation of butter was pat
ented in 1878; and the subject was
gravely discussed from a scientific and
hygienic standpoint. The commission
err of patents doubted his constitution
al right to issue IL patent for the imita-
ton of butter. He recalled the fact
that, among other things, the constltu-
ton was formed for the general well
fare;" and it was questioned whether
it would be for "the general welfare tn
issue patent for the manufacture OF
an article of food of such universal use;
a patent under which dangerous and
unwholesome compounds might be
made by INSCRIPTIONS persons. There
was at that time, of course, no cleo
margarine law, and the commissioner
debated long before granting a patent.
Since then there have been nearly
thousand applications for patents, and
nearly hundred have been granted.
Some of the ablest chemists in the land
are to-day engaged in experimenting
with the analysis of butter and the
manufacture of limitations. Each Of
them is struggling to discover some
compounds which will produce good
butter at less cost than the butterflies
now on the market
AFrenchman named Hippolyte Mege,
who was engaged in experiments for
the preservation of butter, so that it
would keep fresh during long sea voy
ages, was the original discoverer OF
a process for making artificial butter;
and to him the first patent was granted.
lie had no intention of reaching the
result which he achieved. His discov-
cry. however, created a great sensation
at that time, as such thing as produc-
ing butter from anything but milk had
never before been heard of. Butold Megc

A KENTUCKY MIRACLE.
JUDGE JOHN M. RICE TELLS HOW
HE WAS CURED OF SCIATICA.
Circuit Judge, Congressm&A and
AssembIyman.
tFrom be oovington, 20, POst.l

ASSehDlyhhh.
(From the Coviagton, KY, Post)
The Hon. John NJ. Rice, of Louisa, Law
renee County, Kentucky, has for the past
two years retired from active life as Grim.
inal and Circuit Judge of the sixteenth
judicial District of Kentucky.
He has for many years served his native
county and state in the legislature at Frank.
fort and at Washington, and, until his re.
tirement was q noted figure in political and
Judicial circles. The Judge is well-known
throughout the state and possesses the best
qualities which go to make Kentucky
gentlemen honored wherever he is known.
A few days ago Kentucky Post reporter
called upon Judge Rice, who in the follow
ing words related the history of the causes
that led to his retirement. at is Just about
six years since l had an attack of rheuma-
tism; slight at first, but soon developing into
Sciatic rheumatism, which began first with
acute shooting pains in the hips, gradually

A PETTICOATED HOBO.
GOULD Not Afford to Travel So
She Tramps.
The NomAdic Habits of a Mrs. Georgia
MoRay-She Wears Meu's Clothes
and Has Worked in a
: Lumber Camp.

A rather ordinary-looking woman
sat recently in the Office of Humane
Agent Sherlock at Kansas City, says
the Chicago Post, There was moth
ing in the woman's appearance to at
tract more than passing look, yet
she has had a record-breaking eX-
perience. Her name is Mrs. George
Moray, and she has tramped pretty
much all over the United States
from Pennsylvania to Montana, and
from the forests Of Wisconsin to
Oolagah, l. T. Mrs. Moray was
born in Center county, Pa, about
forty years ago apparently. Her
father was farmer, and she says
that when she was a girl she did a
mans work in the field. Early in
life she manifested desire to travel,
and as she did not have the money
to crafty her wishes she started out
to make her way around the country
without it. Dressing herself in
mans attire, she started away from
home, and since then has turned her
sinewy hand to almost every kind Of
manual labor. At one time she
worked with lumbermen in Arkau-
|. sas. While thus employed she found
Emo difficulty in swinging the wood
mans AK, but the company she was
forced to keep was terribly rough,
and she only remained there a few
-asys.7 Several people in Kansas
City have known Mrs. McRay for
years, and all agree that but for her
unwomanly nomadic habits she
would be an excellent member of the
hnmble society to which she would
naturally belong, None of her
friends has ever heard anything dis
reputable laid to her charge, and
Mrs. McRay herself speaks of this
fact with pride. She is simply fe-
lpale hobo whose habit of tramping
hither and thither has probably
reached the chronic stage, and is
now beyond cure. Her face has the
peculiar leathery look common to
those who are accustomed to facing
all weathers, but anyone passing her
on the street would at once put her
down as the hard working wife of a
struggling farmer.
Several years ago she appeared in
Kansas City clad in male attire. She
Twas arrested as a masquerader, but
on promising to leave town was lib
Grated. She had a similar experience
in the little town of Coal Hill, Ark,
put was sent to jail there. That
same evening she broke out of the
little lookup, caught train and be-
fore her absence was discovered was

of cows udder,and by rather COM
plicated chemical process produced an
article which was pronounced to be but
ter, and fully as good as the article
made in the usual way. A man by the
name of, Paroffe about the same time
made butter by a somewhat similar
process, and a great deal of the butter
was used. 1t cost considerable to make
it, and, of course, it soon gave way in
the markets for butterines of later in
vention, which are produced for less
than half of the cost of genuine butter.
There is now no oleomargarine of the
original brand to be found in the mar
kets. The later inventions are not bet
ter. They could not be better, for
Mege's article was practically as good
and pure as any imitation could be.
Butter is one of the necessities of
modern existence. 1t is called for by
the children of the poor, as well as by
the children of the rich. OF course,
only the dairy product is absolutely
pure butter. But the inventive spirit
of the age, aided by scientific skill, has
produced butter substitute for the
very poor people of our cities. IN
doubtedly the coloring materials used
are not beneficial, and the lighter col
ored butterines are regarded as the
best. For that matter, though, color
ing matter is used in the higher grades
of butter, as well as in the butterines.
The costly product of Meges was first
set aside in the markets by an article
patented in 1874 by man named John
Hobbs, who made an imitation but
ter by mixing with good butter GER
tain proportion of the oily part OF suet
and milk.
A substance was produced which was
somewhat in the nature of cottage
cheese, only on account of the butter
mixed with it, it was much richer. The
proportion of butter was one-half to
one-third. The article attracted much
attention, and great deal of opposi-
ton to it's manufacture and sale was
manifested by chemists, health officers
and daily newspapers. Many columns
of editorial matter were written and
printed pro and con, so that the inventor
received thousands of dollars worth of
free advertising. Bills were introduced
in various state legislatures, restrict
ing or prohibiting the use or sale of
oleomargarine. But when the test cases
were brought before the courts it was
demonstrated that the materials used
were not in themselves injurious, and
that the inventor was secure in the pos
session of his patent. The manufacture
and sale continued and other inventions
followed, SO that cheap ''butter" came
to be available for those who are unable
to buy the pure product of the COW 22Si1
the churn. 10
One of the examiners at the pfA8
Office says that the principal fe3 ~
of all butterines is milk in som9 -

TWO STAFF CoNXESTiONS.

The Republican state convention TO be
held in Detroit May II will elect dele
gates to the Republican national cenven-
ton rnd also new state central commit
tee This, together with such reSOu-
tions as may be introduced and adopted
will constitute the work Of that conven-
ton.
The indications at the present time are
that it will not take the convention a
very long time to do this work. The
delegates from the so odd counties in the
state will come here with their prefer
ences for the presidential nomination
packed away in their heads and will vote
for such candidates for delegates to the
national convention as will vote in aC-
cordance Herewith. That is the way to
give expression to the will OF the party
in the national conventions, provided the
party itself does its full duty in attend
ing the caucuses. where t he first work
of ascertaining the will OF the party must
begin.
Let it be emphasized right here that II
the party is not fairly represented at the
primaries in all the voting precincts of
the state, the party'S will may fail to
find its true expression in the state con-
vcnton and also in tho national convcn-
ton at st. Louis. III c Importance Of at
tending the CaucuseS must be apparent
to all who stop to think about it.
As to the Republican state convention
to be held TO nominate a tate ticket.
that is yet to be called, and the calling
OF it will devolve upon the new state
central committee to be selected by the
May state convention, The second state
convention viii be much more exciting
than the first and will undoubtedly be
much longer in session. The numerous
candidates for the gubernatoriaI nominal
ton will bring with them great throngs
of earnest and enthusiastic friends aud
supporters, and it will be one Of the
liveiest conventions the state Of Michi-
gan has had in many year. 1t will
probably attract greater numbers OF Re-
publicans from all parts oi-the state than
usually attend state conventions. 1t
necessarily follows that this convention
should be held where Accommodations are
ample to meet all wants and demapds. -
