A Kentucky AGRICULTURAL is authority
for the statement that much good use
may be made Of cornsJalks. The pith,
he says, can be converted into cellulose,
which has market value of s40O per
ton. War vessels are lined with it,
and whenever vessel so lined is punc.
tursd with shot, the contact Of the
water with the cellulose CAUSES it TO
swell, closing the aperture and prevent
ing the water from entering between
the inner and outer walls OF the shin.
The railroads have found celIulose to
be superior to cotton waste for packing
journals, as it requirea less oil and OBJ
viates hot boxes. AS covering for
steam pipes it is the best known sub
stnncs. For making paper it is found
to be superior to wood pulr, and from
il kodak films, frsscoes and all napier
mache articles can be made. This does
not begin to exhaust its marvellous
possibilities. and its general use will
mako the cornstak u valuable instead
OF comparatively worthless product.

The Gazette's staff correspondence
from Dover tu-day contains the renort
of an interesting interview with Mrs.
William n. Eosss. wiie Of the default
Ing paying teller Of the First National
Bank of Dover. In the course OF this
interview, Mrs. Bngss gave some posi
tive statements that completely dis
prove many of the racent sensational
publications mads with respect to the
bank affair, and lraye the object of
these publications still matter Of con-
lecture, with the strong probability, as
expressed ut the first by Every Evening,
that they we're "bluf" on tho part Of
thoae who fear to have Boggs return TO
this State.
1t has been developed beyond doubt
that there were two significant features
connected with the crims Of Paying
Teller Hoggs, which would mako 1t
very uncomfortable for certain parties
ehould be return, plead guilty in open
court, and make full confession. Ono
of these features was how far he might
have been connected with certain out
side parties in using for stock specua-
tions this large cum al money stolen
from the bank. The other was how far
his crooked transactions might be com
plicated with money drawn from the
bank and used for political purposes
1t is also fact that tine sensational
| publications alluded to were instigRted
by the sourcea that would feel the
| greatest interest in preventing any Ok
| posture by Boggs Of the arrangements
by which much money was expended
for certain party purposes during this
last campaign in this State. And these
publications, from the first, we're tC

There was, however. throughout, q
large element Of ''hluffn about tn,
affair, and it soon became apparen
that the ALLEGED confidence with which
the statements about Buags' moremons
and intentions were made was not baed
upnn knowledge OF facts. Now Mrs.
Boggs enpnatically dsnies these seisa-
tional stories, and fears that they may
have the effect of delaying the sturn
Of her husband to stand trial or his
crime, course which she has advised
him to follow and hopes he vii do.
