THE AGENT OF THE VISION
SIN CENTRAL

Mr. Dickinson of Indiana, a skilled
brickmaker. has practically agreed to
operate large brickyard in this\ city.
The place selected for the yard is near
the deep cut" ON the Wisconsin Central
line near the upper bridge. All that is
asked is a road TO the yard so as 70 make
it accessible. Mr.. Dickinson will con-
struct the road himself if $500 be con-
tributed by the people of the city toward
it. There are some little details vet to lie
arranged with the Central Company but
final adjustment is near. All that re-
mains, aside from these details, is the
raising of $500 for the purpose mentioned
The plant will cost $50 600 and its an
nual product will be 5000, 600. None
of the $500 is to be paid until 5000, 00C
Arick are manufactured Mr. Dickinson
is an experienced brick manufacturer
and intends to manufacture the finer
qualities of brick pressed and otherwise.
He has been in the city a number OF
times within the last few months and
has fully tested the clay He says it will
make cream brick, similar to that which
made Milwaukee famous but with more
of pink color. He is pleased with the
prospect and is delighted with Mantle
voc. He intends to test the clay with
the addition of iron ore TO determine
whether vitrifed brick may be made
from it and if so he will engage i'll the
manufacture of this variety.
Engineers were at work yesterday tC
determine the easiest way of getting a
spur track to the yard and the best way
of getting road to the city without toe

without hitch-and everything points
that way now, work on the yard will
be begun at once. Good things are com

PecuIiarities of Filipinos.

The Filipino is artistic and his cloth
ing is clean-two tremendous strides
toward civilization. The men do clever
work in wool, silver, and brass. Their
old war-knives are highly embellished.
Their pottery is often picturesque, and
the clothing of the women, made OF the
indigenous fiber that abounds through
out the islands, is picturesque, aud has
jaunty, attractive style, which their
straight forms and exposed shoulders
carry off well. The fiber is often woven
as finely as silk, and some of the drawn
work Of the Filipino lace makers is
most exquisite and expensive. have

not be purchased under $500. The Fill
pinos love jewelry, and some OF the
crude settings contain magnificent
pearls, found along the shores of the
islands. The women, as class, are at
tractiye = many are really pretty.
While eschewing shoes, gloves, and
hats, they often wear dresses of the
finest texture, beautifully embroidered,
and made with flowing train. Both
sexes love music, andthe Filipino music
is not the wild banging of tom-toms
and the beating of cymbals and drums;
nor is it the squeak of the two-stringed
violin and the pounding of sticks

strong motives for concealing his idenr

could easily reduce his height, to begin

THE QUEENS WEALTH.
Victoria WILL he the First English
Sovereign to Leave Any
Property.

Her majesty, Queen Victoria, will be
the first sovereign of England who ever
had any money to leave to her family.
All of her predecessors on the throne
bequeathed u choice assortment of
debts to their posterity, which parlia-
ment was called upon to make the peo-
pie pay. But while our queen permit
ted us to be taxed for the private obli-
cations of George ". and William w.,
she herself paid all the debts Of her
father, the duke of Kent. -.
There is food for much speculation as
to the disposition of her majesty's i'm
mense property. The bulk of it will, of
course, go to the prince of Wales, and
it has been asserted that the best es-
tates are entailed upon the queens sue
cessors with the condition that they
shall not be mortgaged or alieniated in
any way. The palace at Osborne will
probably be given to the queens fav-
orite daughter, Princess Beatrice, who
is also expected to inherit the fortunes
of the Empress Eugene.

What is sadder, says the New York
Times, than the way in which the Poles
of Polish Russia were forced to greet
the coming centenary of their great
poet, Mickiewicz. They were permitted
TO give money for the erection of mon
ument which was to keep alive the
memory of Mickiewicz, but were nota al
lowed to print or mention in any way
his name. The day the monument was
unveiled speeches were prohibited, and
no applause was heard. What the
crowd did when the monument was
seen was to keep dead silence, but
every head was uncovered.

PICKED sHEEPsKINs.
A Method of Preserving the Hides
Which Gives Them Tanned
Appearance

The discovery was made last summer
by customs officials in this city that
certain picked sheepskins previously
admitted free of duty as raw skins
were not really raw skins. These skins
were imported in casks, done up in
dozens, and while there was really no
pickle in the casks the skins were damp,
showing that they had been picked
The skins were taken out of the casks
and hung up over night to dry. They
were then exhibited to dealers and tan
ners, who, from the appearance OF the
skins, pronounced them to be leather.
It was ascertained that these skins had
undergone lengthy process of manu-
facture, such as taking off superfuous
flesh, putting in lime watts and handling
for many days, taken to the beam
house and worked on at some consider
able expense, placed in several baths
of bran-one skin split into two pieces
on a machine for that purpose-and
finally picked to keep them until
other tanners were ready to finish
them into various kinds of leather
in which they deal All this work,
it was ascertained, advanced the
skins to- point where they could actual
ly be converted into various kinds OF
finished leather in few hours.
Sheepskins are capable OF being
picked for preservation just as they
come from the puller who takes off the
wool, while the process of preparing
for special tanning is not in any sense
a process. of preservation. Skins may
be sailed and dried just as they are
taken from the backs of the animals,
and they will keep any reasonable time.
Many skins are merely dried in the sun,
and will keep long time. Such skins
are considered "rqw skins" Years ago
hundreds of thousands Of sun-dried
sheepsldns were shipped TO Philadel-
phia from Colorado or other then terri
tories, and sometimes they remained
unsold for many months withoutin the
least changing their character. Such
skins were always considered raw"
All the ports now place duty On
picked manufactured skins and
picked skins not split, picked skins
grain side splits and picked skins flesh
side splits. They are commercially
known as "roans" for the whole skin
and splits of various kinds. They are
never bought and sold as raw skins"
Some of the American pullers sell the
skins just after the wool is taken off
them, while others, pullers and tanners
combined, work the skin up to the
point of perfection that the trial skins
represent. The skin after it is dried
over night would deceive almost any
leather dealer of 40 years standing, be-
cause it is finished up to point where
nothing is required but final finishing

phia Ledger.
