In the annals Of the traf}esfolk Of
Chester there never was greater man
than Richard Bolland, the original
owner Of the bakeshop In 1886 the
Duchess Of Kent and her young daugh-
. ter, the Princess Victoria, visited the
city for the purpose of officially opening
new bridge that was to bring all
kindsof Importance and prosperity to
the town. OF course It. was an immense
event for Chester, and every one did
something to make the visit Of the
great folks memorable.
Richard Bolland was ambitious, hut
poor, and he ehurned his brains might
lily to devise some attractive method Of
showing his loyal appreciation Of the
visit. In happy moment he decided to
make some small cakes Of transcendent
excellence, put them in q fancy box and
present them to the young princess.
Happy thought! Potent cakes! Great
Bolland!
The next year the little princess,
whose palate had been enchanted by
the flavor Of the Chester cakes, became
queen of England, and one Of the first
acts after her accession in 1887 was the
appointment of Bolland as one of the
queens warrant holders. So much for
the power of box of small cakes.
How long the flavor of those cakes
fingered in the royal memory is shown
by the fact that % years later, when
the Prince of Wales was to be married,
Victoria gave commission to Bolland
to prepare the wedding cake for that
great event. 1t was no ordinary we'd
ding cake that Mr.. Bo]land produced
either, and it's exhibition earned him
such tremendous fame that every Eng
lish bride Of wealth and prominence
who has married since then has had
the Chester baker prepare her wedding
cake.
Descendants of the original Bolland
now conduct the shop, hut they use the
same recipe that proved so successful in
the days of ViGtoria's childhood, and
still bake cakes for the royal family

In the year 1868, Mr.. J. R. Watkins first began
the manufacture of DR.. Wards Lininlent. For
years he struggled along with limited means,
striving with all his powers and at times despair
ing of success, but at last established living,
paving business, and made the name CDR Ward's'
a household word in thousands of homes. Dur
ing all these long years of toiling and waiting,
Mr. Watkins little thought that men could be
found so lost to every principle of right and
Justice as to undertake to despoil him of his bus
mess, and themselves to attempt to harvest the
fruits of his lifelong labors. However, in this
matter, he learned that he was mistaken. In
various parts of the country, sprang. up bogus
agents offering medicines said to be DR.. Wards or
fEjust as good as Dr.. Wards," frequently leading
customers into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, in order to protect his BUSH
ness and the public from being imposed upon,
Mr. Watkins bought from Richard Ward, the
world wide right to use his name as a trade
mark for full line of medicines, and caused the
same to be registered in the U. S. Patent Office
No. 1856.
All customers are hereby cautioned to see that

UNMARKED HERO'S GRAVE.

OF all the candidates of the greatparties for
the presidency of the United States who have
died the oaly grave unmarked by monument
or headstone Is that of General John c. Ere
mont. On IA broad plateau in Rockland Gem
etery on ths Hudson, directly overlooking
the famous Tappan Zee, his body is buried,
and while there are hundreds OF monuments
within stones throw, there is nothing but
the r. cords of the cemetery TO show tho To-
1 alton of his grave.
When General Fremont died about seven
years ago. his body was placed in the receiv-
ing vault in Rockland Cemetery, and "A move
mont was started To raise funds for monu-
ment. For some reason il failed, and his
body remained in tne vault five years. About
two years ago IL was removed, and, with I'M
posing ceremonies. buried where it now lies.
Many distinguished persons were present,
and it was definitely decided then to erect a
monument.
Designs were submitted by various ar
fists, and the one finally selected was n
statue Of General Fremont, of heroic size,
representing him dressed in the costume of a
scout, and standing upon hugo rock. The
cost was TO be 10000 Mrs Fremont, the
widow, approved of the design, but prac-
money by popular contributions. She de-
plored the publicity that would necessarily
follow. An attempt was made to raise the
money 10y private subscription, but delays
followed, and the monument is no nearer a
reality now than ever.
General Fremont died very poor. The wo-
men of the West raised enough money to buy
a comfortable home for Mrs. Fremont in Los
angeles, Cal, whore she now lives. Although
more than 40 years old, she is diligently pros
ecuting what she terms her life's work. This
is a suit for many thousand dollars gainst
the government.
General Fremont owned tract OF land near
San Francisco of about forty acres. The gov
ernment desired the ground for military pur'
poses, but General Fremont would not accept
the prise il offered. Finally the government
took possession of the land and General FIRE.
mont took the matter to the Court Of Claims
The matter was allowed to anguish until q
short time before the generals death. Then
the government declined TO pay for the land
and put IN the defense that the claim was
outawed.
The expectation OF a favorable settlemen,
of this suit has caused Mrs. Fremont 10 OBJ

last letter received by her friends here upon
tho subject, Mrs Fremont said

RULES FOR USING GLUE.

Glue being an animal substance, must
be kept sweet, to do this it is necessary
to keep it cool after ii is once dissolved,
and not in use. In all cases keep the
glue kettle clean and sweet, by cleaning
it often.
Good glue requires more water than
poor consequently You cannot dissolve
six pounds of good glue in the same
quantity OF water you can six pounds Of
poor. The best gluo will require from
one half to more than double the water
that is required with poor glue which is
clear and red, and the quality Of which
can be discovered by breaking piece,
III good it Will break hard and tough and
when broken will be irregular on the
broken edge. If poor 10 will break COM
paratively easy. leaving smooth.
straight edge.
In dssolving glur, il is bsst to weigh
the glue and weigh or measure the
water. II not done, there is liability of
getting more glue than the water can
properly dissolve. It is a good plan,
when once tho quantity of water that any
sample of glue will take up has been as
certalned, 10 put the glue and water to-
gether at least six hours before heat is
applied, ana if it is not soft enough then
let IL remain longer in soak, for there is
no danger of good glue remaining IN
pure water, even for As hours.
The advantage of frozen glue is that it
can be made up at once, on account of its
being so porous. trozsn glue of same
grade is rs strong rs IL dried.
II glue is of tlrst-rate quality. it can be
used on most kinds of wood work very
thin. and make the joint as strong as the
original. White glue is made white by
bleaching. Popular Science News.

BLONDE INDIANS.

One of tho mysteries Of Mexico is pre-
sented by tho Maya Indians, who inhabit
the Sierra Madre Mountains in the
lower part of Sonora. They have fair
skins, blue eyes and light hair. and
students of ethnology have always been
puzzled to account for them. There is {"
tradition, however. that these Indians al
gers of Swedish vessel wrecked on the
Mexican coast centuries before Columbus
discovered the new world. But this ira
dition is founded on nothing more sub
stantial than folklore tale current
among them that their ancestors came
over the big salt water hundreds Of moons
ago.
Tho Mexcans have never been able to
conquer this people. Nomnaly, in
deed, they are under Mexican rule. but
really they are governed by their own
chief, and whenever the Mexican govern
ment has interfered with them they have
taken up arms, getting the best of the
scrimmage every time Their nearest
Indian neigh Jrs are the Yaauis and these
two war-like tribes have reciprocity
down to u iine point. Each helps the
other when the Mexcans attack them.
The Mayas live principally by the chase,
although they cultivate so,ne corn and
garden truck. The men ore large ana
