Interesting Facts About SpoOis end
Shoe Pegs.

Oxford County, Maine, turns out
nearly all tho spools on which the
sewing thread of this country is
wound, said wholesale dealer in
such articles. THE spools are made
from white birch timber, and they
are produced in Oxford County.
There are many other parts of Western
Maine also where the industry is i'm
portant. There are numerous saw
mills in that part Of the State which
are kept busy all the year round saw
ing white birch logs into strips four
feet long, and from one to two inches
wide. and Of the same thickness.
These strips are sent to the spool
Factories, where they are quickly
worked into spools by the most ingc-
NOUS labor saving machinery.
''Thc strips Of white birch are fed
into one machine, and they are not
touched, liz fact, are hardly seen again,
until the spools, all finished for mar
kct, except polishing, drop out by the
bushel from another machine several
rods away from where the strips started
in. The spools get their gloss by be-
ing rapidly reyolyed in barrels, turned
by machinery, the polishing resulting
from the contact Of the spools in the
barrel.
In the backwoods villages of Ok
ford County one sees scarcely any
other industry but spool-making. and
every person in the ncighborhood is
in some way interested in the bust
ness. The factories have been eating
into the Maine birch forests for years,
but there still seems to be enough Of
the timber left to feed the machinery
for many years to come. Hundreds
Of thousands Of feet of logs are cut
and sawed into spool timber annually.
"Shoe-peg factories are also an i'm
portant branch Of business once pecu-
liar to Maine, although it has Of late
been followed to some extent in other
Eastern States, and is spreading to
the hardwood forests OF Northern
Pennsylvania. Maple is used largely
in the manufacture Of shoe pegs, al
though white birch is used at some
factories. Shoe pegs are sold by the
bushel, and are worth all the way
from IS cents to 81 bushcl, accord
ing to quality. More than $3.50, 900
was received by Maine shoc-peg fac
tories last year for goods.
ga curious and profitable business
has grown up in the Maine woods,
near the sawmills, in the utilizing of
the immense quantities of sawdust By
compression. Thousands of tons of
this waste material are bought for
mere nothing, and are pressed into
compact blocks and bales, and in this
form are finding ready market for
kindling and fuel in Eastern cities"

Mr.. Holman started in practical life
and practical politics early. He was
practicing law at the time of his mar
riage He was nominated for Judge of
the Probate court before he was of age,
and was elected to the Office when he
had barely reached his majority. He
held this Office from 1S43 to 1886, when
he resumed his practice. He was a
member of the state constitutional con-
vention in 1850. and in 1851 he repre-
sented his district in the lower branch
Of the state legislature. In 1852 he was
elected Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas, and remained in Office until 1856.
He was first nominated for Congress in
1854, and was defeated at the polls by
William Cumback, Republican. The
district was at that time. and for some
years afterward. largely Republican
Two years later he was defeated for the
nomination in the Democratic conven-
ton by Dr. Berry. of Franklin county,
and Berry was defeated at the polls by
John H. Farquhar. In 1853 Mr.. Holman
was elected to Congress and up to his
death continuously represented the dis

he was a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for the presidency.
One Of the stories told to illustrate
the economical disposition of the late
Representative Holman is that when
he was travelling through the west
some years ago with Representative
Cannon of Illinois and Peel of Arkan-
saA, to investigate Indian agencies, he
always declined to take Pullman car.
xrs. Holman and the wives of the other
members of the committee accompa-
MED the party. Mr.. Holman said that
he and his wife were not in the habit
OF using sleeping cars. when travelling
at their own expense, and he did not
see why they should do SO when the
government paid the bills. Therefore.
in q journey covering nearly 1000
miles, from Washington to the Pacific
coast, and through the different terri
tories, Mr.. and Mrs. Holman made
themselves as comfortable as possible
in one Of the ordinary coaches, while
the rest of the party rode in q Pull
man. During the journey they visited
several military posts where the ordi-
nary salute to which a member of Con-
gress is entitled was fired in their
honor. At several places Mr. Holman
requested that the salute might b
omitted, because it gave him NO graft
fication. and was a useless waste Of
powder.

one Of the greatest nuisances within
the borders Of the Lone Star state, says
the New York Herald. Not satisfied
with its own freedom the wild horse
has adopted the tactics of the Apache
and the Sioux and stampedes its

believe that the wild mustang is en-

The Texas ranchman regards him as
an emissary of the evil one. for he

Of Jesse L. Holman, who came to this
country 1t q time when men OF his
brains and ability were rare In SOUTH

litical and social leader of the commu-

his son easily followed. He was q law

him Judge Of the United States District
court. He presided over the first bank

That was in 1912. Court was convened
In the Baptist church at Aurora, and

court in the church.
William s. Holman was brought up
