NEW USE FOR GLASS.

A certain glass company of Indiana
has gone into a novel line Of business.
For sorne time past it has been actively
engaged in preparing moulds in differ
ent shapes for manufacturing glass
tombstones. The projectors Of this
enterprise claim that tom lstene made
from glass Is far more duraBle than
one made of either marble or granite.
1t is well known fact that the " id
and rain and heat and cold have slf-
fcient effect upon a stone grave mark
er to almost obliterate any lettering
which may lie upon 1t in t,.e course II
Q century or so.
No such effect is produced by the
weather on glass. The slabs will b
made in all ordinary sizes and can oe
made to closely initiate The finest gran
tie or marble in appearance as to de-
ceiye any one but an expert. The et-
tering Is made by the sand blast pro-
cess, and Ia very distinct -Chica 70

WHALE liz HARNESS.
II Is Being Driven, They Say, Across
the Seas to San Francisco.


Colonel F. w. Black Of the customs
ssDartment at Sand Point, Popcff
G.land situated in the Shunagin group
:, islands off the Alaskan peninsula, is
4 Tacoma, and is authority for re
,oarkable story Of captive whale,
rbich. If the plans have not miscarrieu
i now being driven to San Francisco
barnessed to boat and driven by his
captors down the coast through the
waters of the ocean.
The whale, named Bulshoy, an Aleut
word for immense, was car.ured in the
snring of 1891 when a calf of some
eighteen or twenty months old 1t was
hen about fifteen or sixteen feet long,
and though SO young and small was
nossessed of considerable strength.
During chase for whales by whites
and Indians it was driven into Pirate
cove. the entrance to which is not over
one hundred feet wide. though 1t is
,nlly twenty fathoms 'ep John G.
Whitley, a storekeeper at the island,
Immediately stretched across tn
mouth of the cove strong wire net.
shortly afterward Whitley and lis
native servant attempted to feed the
animal, and were successful. Whitley
rigged up a walrus bladder, to which
was attached six or seven feet of rub
Der tube. About nalf gallon of COW 5
milk was put in this improvised nurs-
ing bottle, and Whitley and Efteha put
il In a bidarka, or canoe, and padded
alongside the pup, which by this time
with their boats After several hours
Of patient coaxing the Indian succeed
ca in getting Bulshoy to drink from
the rubber tube. When the bidarka
turned for the shore Buls1oy followed
close behind it. More milk was OBJ
tanned, and this time Bulshoy needed
no coaxing to drink it.
For the next six weeks Whitley and
the Indian fed the pup twice every day.
The pup would stick his head out OF
the water, close to the landing, and
look for his nurses long before the
feeding time.
1t was not until the following spring
thai the actual training of Sulshoy Re
gan TO take definite form. Whitley one
day said:
II am going to train that pup 60
mat can drive him to San I'rancisca.
He and Efteha were constantly to
seen on the bay playing with Bulsncy,
who by this time had become SO &C
eastomed TO his owner and nurse thai
he would come to them whenever they

REFINED sASsJETY.o
The Arizona Landlord was Rather
Proud of the People Around Him.

What we pride ourselves mostly on
is our sassiety," said the landlord of
the leading hotel in Waycross, Ariz..
to guest from the East, who told the

er. sings and talks four languidges,
not countin' lnjun. She's full of fun,
but she kin Civ any woman anywhar
cards and spades an beat her bein'
la6ylike. It's her that's raised the tone
of sassiety to what you find it hyar.
AT that moment there was sound
from the street as though a riot had
started. We rushed to the window
and a crowd of excited men, women
and boys we're following man who
was bound and being driven along the
middle of the street.
What does it mean?" / asked
Nothing much, but eff you want TO
see fun come along My darter Told
me they was goin TO do it this morn

foot hyar fur three days, a regular
