Under the shade of the trees in Chris
tainsen's grove, surrounded by fields
green with growing crops, the members
of the Society Dania enjoyed themselves
to their hearts content. A multitude of
little ones sang and danced and played
all day, smiling narure looked on with
approval No one went hungry either in
spite the appetizing air, for the long tab

by the ladies, while certain clump of
trees seemed to have special attraction
for the men folks. A large platform was
filed with merry dancers who whirled
about to the inspiring strains from the
fiddles cleverly handled by G. NJ. Hen

Waning Fad Out of Which an Iowa
Woman Mnde a snlaii Fortune.

Waning Fad Out of Which an Iowa
Woman Made "a Small Fortune.
IT became interested IN campaign
buttons few years ago. said a Chi
cagoan who Is constantly on the look
out for novelties which will sell. "and
was fortunate enough 10 catch the
craze just at the right time. We had
quite a large plant and were able to
turn out 100000 buttons a day. The
device was printed on disks Of special
~ prepared cellulOid, which were then
slightly softened and pressed on metal
rings with stud fastening That part
was done by a machine which was in
vented by a woman in Iowa. She
made about $4,000 out of her patent.
Tho first buttons were nearly all pO-
lltlcal but the fad soon extended to
other varieties, and at one time we
made over 300 different sets, each set
having, sometimes, as many as forty
separate designs. Making the draw
ings alone kept a corps of ten men
busy. They We're originally printed in
black, but after a while the demand
for novelty forced us to put in color
presses and some of the work was real
ly artistic. Eventually we used pho
Biography also, and printed from the
negatives direct to the celluloid. The
process was a secret one, and we had
to pay a pretty stiff royalty.
"rhcre was a great difference In the
quality Of the buttons. Some of them
sold for half a cent apiece wholesale,
and some brought as high as a quarter.
The latter were the large Photographic
buttons with German silver mounts.
or course a few are still sold, but not
n hundredth part as many as were for
mcrly called for. We thought that the
war would create demand for but
tons bearing portraits Of the celebrities,
but we were badly left. We got out
several series with pictures of Dewey,
HObson, Sampson, Schley and all the
rest of them, but somehow they didn't
catch on, and set with pictures of the
ships also got the cold shoulder One
order that we recently filed was fol
100000 handsome Roosevelt buttons
which went to New York and were
bought by partsans of the rough rider
A phase of the fad that shows some
vitality is the personal buttOn-embel
llshed with ones own portrait or that
Of ones sweetheart. A great many OF
these are made to order. We sell tC
the dealers, and they dispose of theii
wares to the hawkers. Nearly all the
buttons in the market are peddled Oh
the curb. "-ChcagO Chronicle.

The Population ar the word

The periodical estimates of the
worlds population. made by Professors
Wagner and Supan, of Germany are
always widely accepted as on the
whole the most careful combinations
relating to this difficult question. No
one can tell, of course how far the best
estimates may vary from the truth. and
1t would not be surprising if the figures
given by Wagner and Supan in 1891
who then put the worlds population Mt
i,4SO,OOO,OOO, were fifty to a hundred
millions out of the way. These careful
statlsticians, however, are always able
to assign good reasons for their con.
illusions, and ut least no other estimates
are entitled to higher credence. In his
latest textbook Of geography, DIR. Su.
pan estimates the present population
of the earth at fifteen hundred mil.
lions, or an increase of twenty millions
in the past seven years. There is no
doubt that population is RAPIDLY in.

habited globe, and particularly within

Mrs. Botkin was one or the gayest

the latter end Of July she conceived
her diabollc plan Of destroying her
loyer's; wife, but she overreached her
ends. Hhe real fight for Mrs. Botkins
liberty, was made upon the question Of
jurisdiction. The prosecution was
conducted under the provisions of sec
ton p of the California code providing
for the punishment of crimes commit
ted in whole or in part in that State.
The defense contended that, as the out
come of the crime really took place in
