WALRUS HIDES VALUABLE.
Worth from a Dollar TO Three Dollars
n Pound When Tanned.

In front of John street store, hang
ing idly on an iron rod, is very peculiar
looking piece of leather. From a short
distance it has tb appearance of a large
weatherbeatcn p of planking, but on
closer scrutiny a. presents the rough,
wcltcd appearance Of an elephants hide,
and Il leather grain is discernible. An
inquiry brought ont the fact that it is an
unusually-go piece of walrus' hide.
These hides are usually taken from wal
ruses on the coast Of Norway, and it
is said that the best ones are English
tanned.
The tanning consumes from one to
three years when properly done, and in
process Is similar 10 that used on horse
or COW hide. The hides are eight to ten
feet long. and four to six feet wide.
Their thickness varies from scvcn-cighths
oil an inch 10 three inches. The three
inch hides are becoming much rarer than
they were a few years ago, an inch and
Il half being good thickness today.
The average weight of "a side o warus'
is $50 pounds, and the maximum about
900 pounds.
The hides are sold by weight. but n
pound of three-inch hide is worth about
three times as much as a pound of one
inch hide. The present price of one-inch
hide IS about 5 per pound.
Walrus hide is extensively used for
meta! polishing. 1t is almost indispcnsa-
bic 10 jewelers., bicycle factories or stove
works. where wheels of the hide rerolv-
iE- rapidly are used to remove mars and
scratches and to polish the finer metal
surfaces.-Ncw York Mail and Express.

How They Are CauUh1

The Massachusetts, method of fishing
for striped bass involves Il wetting and
Il lot of hard work. One must wade
out to his hips i'll rubber boots and cast
his ilne into the sea as a cowboy casts
his lasso. The line is coiled in the hand
and pays out readily. following a rather
heavy lead. An expert can cast 200 or
300 feet. Then he must haul in the line
III the hope of attracting bass with the
spinning bait. 1t is a continual casting
and hauling in, but one good fish is ample
compensation for Il hard days work.
Much care and skill are employed in land
ing. When the time arrives for the sr-
prcme effort the fisherman runs up the
beach as hard as he can 60 dragging his
prey with the surf until he has him high
and dry. Then he usually falls on his
back and blows from the long eXertion.-
