DECORATING FABRICS.
Process Employed by Artisans in Java
TO Make SarroRg.
From the Literary Digest.

From the Literary Digest
NJ. Albert Tissandier contributes to La
Nature paris, March 2s.) an account of
the curious method in which the decorated
fabrics known in Java as sarrong are
made. We translate part Of it:
''The workman begins by stretching be-
fore him the stuff that is to DE decorated
it Is a sort Of calico, generally of European
make, whose quality varies with the in
tended price Of the object. He first traces
on the tissue with light line the design
of the future ornamentation Of the sar-
rong. This operation concluded, he pro-
ceeds to cover the whole trace with a thin
layer of melted wax. He employs for this
purpose Ell instrument that is specially de-
signed for the work, but very simple. 1t is
of copper, and consists of little reservoir
about centimeters (4-5 inch) long, from
whose bottom proceeds a light tube curved
at its end Sometimes, to make thicker
lines, this reservoir has two of these tubes
placed very close together. The end of the
instrument opposite the little tubes is
fitted with a bamboo handle. The boiling
wax fills the reservoir and issues drop by
drop from the end of the tube upon the de-
sign.
1.-The operation, thanks to the -practiced
hand Of the workman, is carried on with
considerable rapidity. A lighted furnace,
on which are placed a large number of
these little reservoirs, is placed near the
WWheT- lie has lHCS Always, without loss
OF time, the necessary quantity of hot
liquid wax. The stuff Is now covered with
wax in certain parts, while others remain
untouched; then it is handed over to the
dyer, who puts it in bath of color, red,
for example, mada with manboukou, a
powder extracted from the bark of the tree
Morinda citrifolia- one Of the family of the
Rubiaceae. The dye strikes in on all parts
of the fabric that the wax has not touched
When the whole is perfectly dry the wax
is easily detached after soaking two DAYS
in cold water. The design that II covered
appears entirely white, the original color
of tina fabsic, while the background is red.
II the white decoratiou is to be relieved by
tones Of indigo blue it is necessary to cover
the fabric with wax a second Tina every
whtre that the blue is not to apnear on the
design and to subject it to another dyesng
process, 1t will now be decorated with
three coaors, red, indigo. and Write. For
eact1 tint to be azElied the operation must
be begun aneY iu ,tha sasue manner. so
that the process is very daicats if the
lines are fine OF the coloCs numerous. 1t
may be imagined how lurg and minute
these successive processes are when we re-
member the strange and complicated deco
ration Of these beautiful fabrics. They are
always full Of fancy and very harmonious
In tintsi that is their true merit"

AN AMERICANS BAGGAGE.
Luxurious as lie May BE lie Likes te

| From the New York Sun.
While the Englishman travelling may
have six CT eight pieces Of baggage the
| American, who prefers to have his luggage
| in compact form, may have but one
| Instead of carrying his belongings in a
| number of separate packages he puts them
in trunk IN which there are separate
compartments for all necessary articles. In
this trunk there is a place for his dress
| ing case and place for his silk hat and a
| place for his shoes. There are compart-
4 ments for dress suit and for other suits
| and for shirts and for underwear, and
| places for neckwear and other articles.
| Such trunks are made OF sole leather, of
| rawhide and of canvas, and of various
| sizes. An American going a journey
! of considerable extent and duration might
| get all he desired TO carry into one such
trunk.
! He would have a number OF travelling
| bags to meet different requirements and
| he would have also small trunk for use
| upon occasion, perhaps upon yachting
| trip; though he might carry aboard yacht
| bag or a larger trunk. For trips of a
| day or two, perhaps. into the country he
has dress suit case. These cases are
made Nowadays Of various dimensions
some OF them to hold a number of suits
Ihere is one deep dress suit case that has
| al one end compartment for silk hat:
the sale of these is increasing somewhat
but still it is small altogether. such a case

party, would usually carry har case Han
cases are made TO carry, besides q silk
hat, a derby hat and soft hat: and hat
cases are made in which two hats HEY be
csrrled-a silk hat and pearl hat as well
as derby and soft haI-and such cases
are not very much higher than an ordinary
hat case. the additional room required for
the added hat being not SO great as might
Seem necessary.
If he goes into hunting and fishing he
has hunting trunk made conveniently ar
ranged to carry his shooting and fishing
clothing and equipment and with a COM
partment suitably fitted for his guns: his
fishing rods are usually carried, however,
in a sole leather case made especially for
that purpose

PRICES OF WILD BEASTS.
4 Few Thousand Dollars securea
Quite a Menagerfe.

From the Chicago News.
People in need of wild animals, either to
replenish their spring stock or to start
menagerie. will be interested in a price list
just issued by company that makes II its
business to scour the iungles and hunt
through the forests for specimens of natural
history. The prices quoted in the original
are in pounds sterling, but we reduce thcm
TO dollars in the following extracts:
The lion comes first on the list as belts
the king OF beasts. The most expensive
variety is the South African lion, which is
quoted at Sl,JgD. His wife is marked down
to 800. The North African lion comes
cheaper. at just half the price, while the
Asiatic lion is worth s725. The lionesses are
put at 500 and 1919, respectively. The Eng
lish lion, useful for tail-twisting purposes, is
not quoted on the list al all
Royal Bengal tigers can he had at $40
each: ugeresSes q S4-,u, and cubs at $50
A serviccable hippopotamus may he had
for Sl,Gp. Bactrian camels come at $40
each and dromedaries a. $3.50 The kanga-
roo varies greatly in price, and so does the
chimpanZee, both being quoted ct from SIJ
TO Sl,Vto The ourang-outang is market at
$500 straight: b4hoons from 500 to $50;
Brazilian apes from $40 to 500 while
monkeys may be had at prices varying from
s. to So each.
The most expensive bear quoted is the
grizzly. which ranges f. ON 500 TO $50; then
comes the polar bear, at $50, and the brown
bear at SO each.
RhinoceroseS come high this spring. You
can't expect to get good ore OF the African
variety under 5000 but the Indian rhi-
noceros is priced at S2,9s0. Elephants are
worth from 81 90 TO S2,.stD, and CRATES are
put down at $1,000 per pair. Ostrlches are
worth 500 per pair.
Very few wild beasts birds or reptiles are
On the bargain counter. Small allgators
may he had as low as $50, and older and
tougher ones as high as 500. The range in
crocodile prices is the same. Seals are
quoted at So but we do not advise ladies'
TO purchase them with the idea of raising
their own sealskin sacques. Satisfactory
rettleSnakes can be had as low as SIS, while
pythons range from that figure up to SlO0
Cranes and storks are quoted at 500 per
pair
The price list puts the value Of a full
grown gorilla at $4,000 but the company
does not guarantee to produce one even at
that figure. That is only an estimate OF
what the creature would be worth if the
dealer had him 10 sell.

NEW HAMPSHIRE NOTES.

Two Chesterfield Men Charged with
BurglariIIng the winchester :Cream-
cry.
The creamery at Winchester was burg
larized the night of Nov. %, 200 pounds
of butter being stolen. Deputy Sheriff
RixfoTd at once began TO work on the case
and on Tuesday night of last week, &C
companied by his son Will and Chas Ca
prom, made visit TO the house of Elijah
Low, who lived in an old schoolhouse in
Chesterfield with a Mrs. DeBel and her
son VIII. The house was reached at 2
Wednesday morning and a narrow tired
wagon and horse with a left hind shoe
gone we're found in the barn. The wagon
tire and the shoes corresponded TO the ones
that led away from the creamery the morn
ing after the burglary. Mrs. DeBell was
cooking chicken, while the two men were
in bed, the son having his clothes on.
Under the bed was a bag filled with chick
ems, evidently recently stolen. DeBell
was arrested and taken to the Keene Jail.
He said that Dan and Frank Whittemore
Of Chesterfield burglarized the creamery.
! They were arrested, but easily proved an
alibi, as they were out coon hunting the
night of the burglary. DeBell then con-
Iesseu again. saying thaI 10" stole tue
butter from the creamery while he held
the horse. Low was arrested and brought
to Keene Saturday. He pleaded not guilty
at hearing Monday. Low and DeBell
were bound over to the April term of the
county conrt, bail being fixed at $500 each.
DeBell says the butter was hidden in a
spring, but it has not been found. Low
denies everything but 1t is thought that he
buried the butter as he borrowed a round
pointed shovel of a neighbor a few days
before he was arrested. Low is 90 years
old and DeBell 20.
