HOW EMERY IS oUARRIED.

Emery comes from the island Of Max
os, in theeastern Mediterranean, whence
1t has been exported for the last two
centuries or more The beds are in the
northeast of the island the deposits de-
scending into some of the neighboring
islands, the emery being found in lenti-
cular masses, resting on layers or
schist in limestone, almost Identical
with Parian marble, the finest marble
known, which comes from the island
Of Paros, close by.
There are about three hundred men
engaged In the trade, all of whom have
to be married before they are admitted
to the fraternity. The material Is
much too hard TO be dug out. or even
blasted. Great fires are lighted around
the blocks till the natural cracks ex-
pand with the heat, and levers are
then inserted to pry them apart. This
system is continued until the blocks
are reduced in size to masses of a
cubic foot or less, and they are then
shipped as if they were coal. There
are said to be twenty million tons yet
available at NaXos, and the last re-
ported years export was $3.50. 1t is one
of the hardest substances known
From the Ironmongery.

TOO STRAIGHT.

1t Is well to stand straight, but when
man stands SO straight that he leans
over backward he is standing too
straight, as an Irishman might say.
Many think that Connecticut has been
standing too straight in the matter Of
Sunday trains, and they are pointing
out that Sunday may be more effec-
tually broken without convenient
trains than with them. For instance,
| it is related that a Hartford minister
I received telegram on recent Sunday
morning which required him to take a
train for the West leaving Springfield
that afternoon. No train left Hartford
until $3.50 that evening, but he must go.
So he took trolley to Windsor and
then went to a livery stable and hired
carriage to take him to Thompson
VILE Arriving there he took another
trolley and made his way into Spring
field in time. The law to protect the
day had prevented him from having a
smooth trip to Springfield, but it had
not prevented him riding on two trolley
lines or hiring a horse and wagon on
Sunday.
In other words, it seems to be about
as wicked to be too good as to be not
quite good enough.

FASHION NOTES.
Grent Variety in TntlOr Suitg

This is a money making time for the
tailor who can devise gowns that have
a look of novelty. The stylishness Of
cloths has renewed favor for tailor suits
and the demand for something that
shall be as far as possible removed from
conventional. uniform-like suits has
been much increased. So new tailor de-
signs fetch big prices and at that are
quickly disposed of. While considera-
BILE elaboration is permissible in order
to make the gown seem strikingly new,
it is not essential, and those that have
only a moderate amount of trimming
are perhaps the most desirable of all.

QUEER,

A queer time in morning newsnaner
offices last night. First, the definite
and apparently authentic report of the
death Of John Sherman. Then the state
ment that the signal office at Santiago
de Cuba confirmed the report. Then a
dispatch from Washington saying that
Mrs. Sherman had been informed
through the State department of the
death of Mr.. Sherman. And last and
best of all, dispatch from Santiago de
Cuba saying that there was no truth in
the reports of the death of Mr.. Sher-
man, and that he was not only alive,
but better resting easy and expected to
recover. .."
The good news was much better late
than never 1t would be interesting to
know how the original report got start
ed on it's way around the world. 1t is
to be hoped that the noble old patriot
and statesman will come again to his
native land and in a state of health that
will give him many more peaceful and
pleasant days

The search for Andree is TO be kept up
until it is entirely hopeless. Professor
Nathorst considers it an urgent duty to
continue the search for him as long as
the slightest possibility exists that he
and his companions, Strindberg and
Frankel may be still olive in East
Greenland, Surprising that Andree was
successful in reaching the most north
ern part Of the East Greenland coast,
it is not impossible, he thinks, that the
rest of the time available for travelling
in 1897 and the summer of 1898 was in

Il FINE CONDITION TO BE IN.

1t is reported by so good and reliable
reporter as the New York Journal
of Commerce that orders for steel rails
received from abroad have been decln-
ed by American mills because they are
full up" with American orders and
cannot undertake to deliver the goods
at the former prices and in the time
named The home market is so good
that the smaller profit to be had on
sales abroad is not wanted, and in va
rious lines our exports of manufactured
articles are said TO be declining. AS
the Journal says: Probably the for
eign orders have been taken at slightly
lower prices than are obtained at
home" Accumulated stocks were dump
ed on the foreign market in some cases
during the stagnaton of trade for what
ders were sent here from abroad be-
cause machinery was idle here at the
time. Business has been brisk abroad
for some years, and when for any rea-
son orders could not be filled in Ger
many or England they were sent across
the Atlantic. This was the case of the
locomotives ordered by an English rail-
road company. The strike In the en-
gineering trades in England, followed
by the strike of the Welsh coal miners,
prevented many English manufacturers
from keeping up with their customers
demands, with the result that the over
plus of orders went to America and
Germany. Doubtless part of the bust
ness obtained abroad will be retained.
and it is not probable that refusing of
foreign orders will become very gen.
eral.

Professor Hiram Corson, of Cornell
university, who used to be reporter
fer the United States Senate, tells this
Astory about Sam Houston: We repor-
tiers took turn and turn about each for
an hour. One day was sitting idly in
the reporters gallery, waiting my turn
and looking on. Presently my attention
was drawn by Senator Houston. Huge
OF frame, he was particularly huge of
feet, and those extremities were rendered
the more conspicuous in those days Of
boots by being encased in laced shoes.
on this occasion there seemed to be an
amount of pain In those feet proportion
ate to their size. The senator kept one
upon his knee, rubbing it, with an an
Euished expression, and periodically ex-
changing for the other foot After
awhile he unlaced his shoes and drew
them off. Then the nursing of his ach-
ing toes continued for time as before.
But no relief came, and at last, to my
utter amazement and amusement, he
slowly Invested himself of long blue
woolen stocking, and, taking the huge
iackknife with which he was wont to
pass the time whiting, he proceeded
deliberately to pare his corns in the
Senate Of the United States.

Plans have been made for biologi-
cal survey OF the Nile, with the object
OF determining the species of fishes in
habiting it's waters. Extensive collec-
tions Of the fish in the different parts

seems especially opportune on account
Of the changes in the Nile soon to be
effected by the completion of the va
rious Irrigation and power enterprises
along the river. The Congo Free State
has already commenced survey of
the Congo, and the results of the two
surveys taken in connection with each
other will be of great benefit to the
cause of natural science.
