Wood Pulp.

An enthusiastic advocate of wood pulp
for building material as substitute for
stone is Mr.. q. ID. Rice, who has made
the subject one of close study and investi-
CATION. His conclusion is that it possesses
the needed elements of durable construct
i've substance, being at the same time
devoid of some of those features which de-
tract from the value of stone and brick.
He summarizes some of the qualities pre-
sented by this new factor in building as
consisting in its being light In weight, ex-
ceodingly hard, poor conductor of heat
and sound and sufficiently elastic to meet
all the usual requirements for the pur-
pose; it is tough, though nail can be
driven into 1t, and it can also be drilled,
while the other necessities Of stone SUBJ
stitute, as enumerated, together with re-
sistance to frost and heat, with ability to
stand strain, and so on, are said to DO met,
besides tho important item OF saving In
the cost of transportation. 1t Is urged FUR
ther that the difficulty of procuring per-
fectly square stone blocks, except at high
rates. is thus overcome, for the pulp blocks,
being cast in square mold, are neoessari-
ly uniform. Differing from stone and brick,
which absorb SO much heat in summer,
the proposed material is claimed to be cool
CIR in summer, while in cold weather IL
prevents dampness, SO common IN stone

A great many Lake Linden people will
be interested in the divorce case which
was tli led before a Sault st. Marie Judge
last week and in which Frank Mayotte
and his wife Mrs. Georgiana Mayotte
were the principal figures. Both Mr..
Mayotte and his wife we're formerly Lake
Linden residents. the former having been
marshal OF the village for long time.
It seems that Mr.. Mayotte filed bill for
absolute divorce and his wife asked the
court for separation only. 1t was de-
cided by the court to refuse:Mr. Mayotte
his bill for absolute divorce and the court
granted Mrs. Mayotte's plea for separ-
alton only and directed that the two
children be given to Mrs. Mayotte and
also decreed alimony for the support Of
Mrs. Mayotte ana family. Mr.. Mayotte
removed from this city several years ago,
having been appointed inspector Of GUS
toms bv Cleveland.

FREED BY A FIDDLE.
Why Governor Bob Taylor Pardoned q
Tennessee Convict.

Why Governor Bob Taylor Pardoned n
Tennessee Convict.
One of the most remarkable politioal
contests of modern days was that between
Bob and ALI Taylor over the governorship
Of Tennessee some years ago. The BROTH
ers are both yiolinists-in Tennessee they
are known as flddlers. ALI is the superior
performer. Bob plays left handed. Nei-
Their one Is finished master of the instru-
ment, but they both play the mountain
melodies to the queens taste. During
their unique race for governor, Bob and
ALI did not actually carry their flddles
with them, but in almost every town the
people would hunt up couple of violins
and insist on hearing them play.
When the election was over and Bob
was occupying the highest office in the
gift OF Tennesseeans, a convict in the peni-
tentiary one day sent him fiddle. 1t was
homemade instrument the convict be-
ing its author and flnisher. He had made
1t while serving out his sentence In the
"pen," and designed touching tender
chord In the governors heart by the pres
entation. The story is best told in Gov
ernor Bob's own way:
lone day just before Christmas state
official entered my Office and said: Il have
been implored by poor, miserable wretch
In the penitentiary to bring you this rude
fiddle. 1t was made by his own hands
with penknife during the hours allotted
to him for rest. 1t is absolutely valueless,
1t is true, but 1t is his petition for mercy.
He begged me to say that he has neither
attorney nor influential friends to plead
for him; he is poor, and all that he asks
Is, when the governor shall sit at his own
Preside on Christmas eve with his own
happy children around him, he will play
one tune on this rough fiddle and think of
cabin far away in the mountains in
which is a family crying for bread and
listening for the returning footsteps Of
their convicted father. "
Who would not have been touched by
such an appealY When Christmas eve
came, the governor sat at his own fireside,
surrounded by his own happy family, and,
sitting there, he played one tune on the
rough fiddle. Far up in the mountains
there was another hearthstone bright and
warm, the pardoned convict was there
with his children on his knees and his
heart re-echoing the strains which the gov
ernor played on the homemade tiddle
Pc il over SO humble,
There's no place like home.

Several Changes Made
in Regard to Deer
Hunting.
Applicants For Deer License
ucouired 60 Appear I'm Person TO
the county Clerk or His Depu-
ties-Other Notes.

The last legislature made several i'm
oortant changes In the law. requiring
orsons who intend to hunt deer to first
nrocure license from the county clerk OF
the county in which he resides. The fee
Cor nonresident is $25 and for resi-
dort 75 cents. The season opens Novem-
hor and closes Novemt er 30, both days
inclusive. Heretofore persons residing
at a distance from the county seat could
made an affidavit efore any person
authorized to administer oaths, send the
affidavit to the county clerk and receive
the license. The new law makes no such
provisions and County Clerk Shields
wrote the attorney general. asking ii the
saidayits could be made as heretofore or
whether it would be necessary that each
annlcant appear before the county clerk
in person to make the affidavit and re-
ceived the following reply:
LANSING, Mich. October Z, 1897.
Robert II. Shields, Esq.
Nv Dear Sir:-Your favor OF the 9th
instant received, Ii is the practice among
the clerks of nearly all the counties OF
this State TO require that the person ap-
pying for a license to hunt deer shall
appear ia person. | think that is the
intent OF the law, and it avoids fraud
being perpe trated in many instances. L
think the county clerk would be justified,
under the law, in insisting that the per-
son who wishes license to hunt de r
should personally appear before him,
Yours respectfully,
HENRY e. CHASE.
Deputy Attorney. General.
However, IN order TO obyiate the nee
essity and expense OF trip to the county
seat, County Clerk Shields will appoint
the following deputies for the purpose OF
taking the affidavits:
Calumet--W William johnson.
Lake -Euchariste Brule
Sidnaw--H Henry @. Mead.
Laird--Donald Grant

THE BIG SWING DOOR.

Mems Tempers.

Such Things as These Are What Spoil
Mems Tempers.
The outer door TO the office building was
q massive affair that swung either way.
Tho man who entered WAS in hurry,
but no considerably looked behind him to
see that he did not let it swing in the face
of any one who might be following.
The woman who was following seemed
to be paying no attention to the door, so
the man held it open for her to enter.
The thought that occurred to the wom-
an just as she got i'm the doorway appeared
to make her doubtful as to whether she
wished to go in or out
The man still held the door open.
The woman said, Il wonder if 1 have
the paper that he told me to bring to his
office, and began to search through the
little bag that she carried i'm her hand.
The man said-well, never mind what
the man said. He still held the door open
in order to prevent it sweeping the woman
into the street.
The woman found the paper she was
after and looked across the street, as if I'M
certain whether she had the right address.
The man said Pardon me, madam,
but am in a hurry.
The woman said, "Siri'
The man said, 81 cannot remain here
and hold this door any longer.
The woman said, "Sir, You are the
most insulting man l ever met.
The man swore softly TO himself the
woman entered, and tho door swung back
with great force.
The woman looked scornfully at the
man and said something about telling her
husband how she had been insultOd.
The man made no reply, but later he
was heard saying TO himself, "And yet
people claim that it pays to be polite. -
