Specimens of the beautiful lace which is
being made by the Chippewa Indians are
now seen in a few of the fashionable hous-
es OF New York. They are mainly in the
form OF table covers, bedspreads and pia-
no covers. The lace is peculiarly adapted
for these purposes. as the designs are bold
and forcible. and show to great advantage
when placed over a delicately colored silk
lining. In quality and style, however, the
lace is quite as subject to variation as that
OF any other make and ample opportunity
is therefore afforded for the individuality
of the worker to assert itself
1t is to Miss Sibyl Carter, of New York,
that the Chippewa squaws owe their knowl-
edge of lacemaking. In 1891 she conceived
the idea of teaching them this accomplish
ment. The bead work they formerly made,
while it displayed their patience and nim-
bleness Of touch. was quite unstable. The
accomplished teacher that Miss Carter,
aided by the Episcopal Mission, sent to
them was Miss Pauline Colby. She speaks
of her pupils as being most eager to learn.
and says that the idea once grasped they
work with an accuracy which far surpasses
that of white women.
From the first the lace found ready sale
among wealthy New York women, who en-
couraged the work by giving large ad-
vance orders. Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt
and Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan have fine
bedspreads Of 1t, for which they paid 5000
apiece. Mrs. Astor. too. has been a lib
eral patron. The Indian women receive at
the rate Of 10 cents an hour for the COM
pleted work. A collection of. this lace Is
now being prepared for the. Paris Exhi-

THIRD VICTORIA AND ALBERT.
The First Yacht Launched in IS43
and the Second in 1855.


The new Victoria and Albert is the third
royal yacht of that name which has been
built in Pembroke dock yard. The first
was launched in 1S43 and the second in
1855. The present one is constructed OF
steel, and is divided into a number Of
water-tight compartments. II has been
designed by Sir William White, in accord
ance with the Queens wishes in every re-
spect. IL was decided that comfort should
not be sacrificed to q very high speed and
sustained sea speed in fair weather OF
about seventeen knots was named in the
design In association with a speed OF twen-
ty knots In the measured mile trial OF
eight hours. The coal supply was fixed at
quantity sufficient to steam about 1000
knots, say from Portsmouth to Malta. at
a speed of about fourteen knots The ac-
oommodation for Her Majesty and the
members of the royal family, with their
suites and servants, is considerably greater
than that existing in the present Victoria
and Albert. The new yacht, moreover
has been fitted throughout In a manner
adapted for longer voyages. Her higher
speed and greater size necessitated large
complement Of officers and men. for whom
IL was necessary to provide accommoda-
tion On a scale and of a character suit
able to modern conditions As result
the new yacht is OF much larger dimen-
sions than her predecessor, AS compared
with the royal yacht nov lying in Mil
ford Haven. the new vessel has an addi-
tional deck. and the state deck" is about
ten and e-half feet above the water Be-
tween 1t and the upper deck are situated
Her Matesty's apartments and those Of the
royal family. the cabins assigned TO their
suites and those appropriated to ithe COM
mandins officers and the principal naval
officers attached to the vessel
The apartments of Her Majesty resemble
In their general arrangement those in the
old victoria and Albert, but, they are more
spacious. and a private dining room has
been added. These rooms occupy the CEN
tral portion Of the state deck. where the
minimum OF motion In the seaway should
occud. The apartments OF the members of
the royal family are placed abaft those of
Her Majesty. extending over a considerable
length on the state deck They are sue
ceeded by the apartments of the royal suite.
Rather more than half the length of the
vessel is occupied by these three series of
apartments. and a wide corridor extends
from end to end, with convenient stair
cases leading to the upper deck Above
the upper deck. toward the after part, is
a large pavilion. or saloon, besides recep-
tion and smoking rooms, and the top of the
pavilion forms promenade. Today the

II Is hoped. however. that she will be ready
for her steam trials toward the end of the
present year. when she will leave Penn

is expected to be ready for service. and

a career as happy and fortunate as was her

the mountain nearly on a level with the

| Iron Mountain no longer.
Mining engineers were hastily sum-
moned by the company. They decided
that this deposit was only detached body
OF ore and that the mother lode was c.ose
at hand. Thus encouraged the company
bored to great depths at various points
without vindicating expert opinion. Not
another trace Of iron could they discover.
So new theories had to be advanced to suit
the case and account for these large pock-
cts of iron ore. The explanat. on now gen.
orally accepted is that the immense de-
posits were aqueous instead of ign5ous in
formation, and. therefore. no mother lode
existed from which they could have been
detached. Whether that theory is correct
or not, the fact remains that after taking
out 3,500,000 tons of about as rich ore as
was ever mined in the world the great
Iron Mountain has become a thing of the
past. It's army of 1900 workmen has
shrunk TO a corporal's guard. who are now
employed in scrapping up and sorting tie

abandoning the works forever. The 5000
men, women. and children who populat ed
the town have scattered to the four quar-
tiers of the globe. Perhaps seventy-five or
eighty of them still remain. Every store
is closed. The spiders weave their webs
over the broken windows of the shops
without molestat'ou. Dwelling houses sag
in decay on their foundations. The
churches, schools. halls. and lodge rooms
are given over TO the rats. A postoffice is
no longer maintained there by the Gov
ernment, and at the crumbiing railway
station stops but one train a day eacl

its population, but few have been the rec
ent additions, and the place lies buried
itself beneath a tangled mass OF weeds and
bushes. The whole town is a superb pic
ture of desolation and ruin, to be met with
only in the Old World and in the mining
districts of the New.

CHM, weil-to-do bachelor who carries on
a hen and bee farm in this village. ana has
predicted for hfty years that he would die
on his eightieth birthday, which occurred
last Sunday. has concluded to postpone his
demise until the beginning Of the twent.-
eth century. This change Of mind was
caused by . mistake which his hired man
made last summer. CHM has been getting
ready to die since 1912, when q Millerite
preacher convinced him that the end Of the
world was at hand. His silk ascension
robe and beautiful sole-leafher harp case
have been kept In a wardrobe for fifty
eight years. After Miller's prediction
failed CHM started out as o prophet on
his own account. n
The older residents tell strange tales
about the accuracy Of his predictions. A.
long ago as 1886 he said the potato crop in
Maine would perish from rot In 1913 and
would be ruined by a striped-back bug
in 1872. When the rust and rot fungus
visited Maine for the first time In 1S4S Mr..
CHM was considered very wise, man. and
in 1872, when the Colorado potato beetle
came along. his admiring townsmen elected
him to the board of selectmen and wanted
to send him to the legislature.
He Is said to have foretold the great
gale which visited the Maine coast in
September, 1868. and those who, took his
advice and gathered their apples before
the storm made handsome profit on their
fruit. He told in advance. too, OF the great
right whale that stranded in Gundalaw
Cove in April. 1876, and ruined the best
clam flats in Maine By this time his fame
had spread and people began to consult him
upon matters of love and fortune, but he
could never be induced to take any pay
for his services.
1T is gift" he told everybody, "a gift
from God. 1t came to me without cost,
and those who receive from me shall do SO
without making payment. II should ped

While he would not accept mouey he
was not averse to presents Of tobacco gro
ceries, and clothing, and on rare occasions
he is said TO have taken in and cared for
sundry jugs Of West India rum left upon
his doorstep.
CHM revoked the prophecy that he was
to die on April 80, 1899, because a careless
hired man. In hunting for a box in which
to hive a swarm Of bees which came out
last June. appropriated the yellow birch
coffin. which had been lying on the great
beams Of the ell for more than thirty
years. Mr.. CHM was down on the shore
digging clans at the time, and when he
heard what the man had done he was
seized with fit of anger that lasted for
six months. Then he pushed the date Of
his death ahead to July
