establish the points OF observation
along the coast. After selecting the
thirty-four central points from Maine

TOO MUCH FOR HIM.
mental in the Death OF an
Odd Character.

Citizens of Johnstown, Pa, are
mourning the death of one of the
characters of that place, and the cir
cumstances of his taking off, as told
by a resident, are indeed sad, says the
New York Press.
Joe, as he was always known, had
been an inhabitant OF Johnstown all
his life, and nobody knows just how
long that was. Whatever money he
earned was by pedSlling apples and
candy from a basket which he carried,
and, as he grew older and feeble, his
income dwindled until it was barely
enough to sustain him. Coupled with
this was the fact that he began to
lose his teeth, which, up to that time.
had always served him faithfully.
<This troubled him exceedingly, and
it was his habit to request persons to
buy his wares in order that he might
save enough money to get a set Of
teeth. Nobody knows just how long
it took Joe to save enough, but q few
weeks ago he received the teeth and
he was as proud Of them as a mother is
of her first baby. Nothing would do
but he must MUNICH an apple for every
acquaintance he met to show him how
the new worries worked.
WELL" the old resident said, refec-
lively, "Joe must have eaten about 100
apples that first day, and when the
next day came he couldn't get out of
bed, he kept on getting worse till he
died.
"My wife says the pleasure of r%eceiv-
ing the teeth was too much for him,
but I've got an idea that those apples
had something to do with it."

MoccAslNs FOR KLoNDlKERs.
A Large Demand for Them Has been
Created.

n Large DcHanO IOF 1nem HAS BeGn
Created.
AS a result of the movement toward
Alaska, the leather dealers report great
activity in the manufacture and sale of
the acknowledged moccasins." The
government, says the Milwaukee Wis
~consin, has recently ordered large sup
plies of these articles for troops who
are to be sent to the gold fields of
Alaska. 1t is declared that no other
footgear would suit the soldiers SO well,
because the moccasin is the warmest
clothing for the foot in the world, and
easier than a silken sandal. The manu-
facture of moccasins in shoe factories
began away back in 1851, and the bust
ness grew rapidly, until at one time
soon after the war there were four
large factories and several smaller ones,
employing about 600 hands and turning
out hundreds Ct thousands of pairs of
moccasins every year. The moccasin
is made of common leather, as a rule,
tanned in a peculiar way. Salt and
alum are used in the process. This
makes the leather soft and pliable, and
there is a way in which, at some addi-
tional expense, it may be made water
proof. The secret of the process is
known to only a few, and the tanning is
carried or for the most part in Rhode
Island. Leather thus tanned was first
used for mill betting, and it was years
before it was discovered that it was
good for boots and shoes Of the easy
and bulgy kind fit for lumbermen, who
like to wear two or three pairs of stock
ings when they go into the woods and
start on a three months campaign with
snow. The original moccasin was a
baggy and unsightly thing, but now
they have some pretense to symmetry
and style.
