WOOL FROM LIMESTONE

is The latest according to the Chicago
Chronicle G. c. Hall, chemist for
the Union Steel Company, at Alex
andria, Ind, has just applied for
patents upon a process whereby he
is enabled to make the softest.
whjtest wool from the mintiest,
rouzhest limestone.
The remarkable character of the
invention is better appreciated when
1t is said that firm in Boston, one
of the best known wool weavers in
the country, is making experiments
in converting this wool into clothing.
Water has no effect upon this
artificial wool, and fire will not harm
it. Another point in its favor as
wool for winter clothing lies in the
fact that it IS one of the best non
conductors known. II is impervious
to heat and cold, and for that reason
would make most desirable under
clothing for Klondikers. 1t could
not he worn in summer, as it would
retain all Of the heat of the body,
and this would become intolerable.
But the greatest point in favor of
wool made from rock lies in the
claim that it will outwear the cheap
product. 1t is to bring out all of
these qualities that the Boston firm
is now lending every energy and ex.
pense TO still further carry this dis
covery into the mercantile world.
Once converted into cloth it would
Gnd all kinds cf uses. Having the
non combustikle qualities of asbestos,
the weaving qualities Of wool, the
softness and warmth of calnels' hair
and the insulating properties of sill
cia fibre, it is difficult to set any
point at which the new fabric would
not reach. Theatre curtains for fire
protection, lining for fine garm ents,
carpets and for wrapping ccnduits,
hot and cold water and air pipes,
packing engines and deadenin g sound,
al come within the scope of It's pos

The men lost in the late Spanish war
according TO Pension Commissioner
Evans, are as follows:
The total number of deaths 1905.
The total number of deaths from dis
ease 300.
The total number killed in battle 3O6.
Out of a quarter of Il million men
mustered into the service of the United
States, only 1906 are dead. This is less
than the normal death rate in any large
city for the same space of time.

They are cut off by rope which no

That the spy sent by the United States
government to Spain during the war should
have become the guest of Weyler himself,
seems incredible. Yet there is nothing more
true. The government selected as Its agent
a man of position who has lived much In
Germany. ! 1t was necessary for US to have
trained intellect that would make no mis-
takes. His story is told in the November
Cosmopolitan, and the most exciting pages
of Dumas's fiction seem tame in comparison
with the facts Crossing the frontier In a
first class carriage he was by trifing acct
dent brought into conversation with ayOung
Spanish nobleman; presently who should
come along but the son of General Weyler.
This acquaintance led to his receiving many
attentions from Weyler when they reached,
Madrid, and the General actually gave up a
day to trip to the Escurial. Imagine this
grim arch enemy of ours laying himself out
to please the secret agent whom the govern
ment had sent to find out the weak places of
Spain. How trifling the demarcation be-
tween the position of honored guest and that
of spy who, II discovered, would have
been all the more quickly sent to his death!
The same issue of The Cosmopolitan con
tains four pieces of fiction by such famous
authors as Frank Stockton, Zangwill, H..
G. Wells, and the lamented Harold Fred
eric, but none of 1t half so exciting In Its in
terest as this true story.
