lIinnesOta's New Industry.

Among the novel American exhibits at
the Paris Exposition will be that of a
new industry in Minnesota, not yet two
years old, which is converting into many
useful and ornamental articles the
familiar wire grass of the American
swamps, heretofore considered wholly
worthless. In this unique exhibit will be
furniture, the grass taking the place of
reed, rattan, or willow; screens, baby
carriages, baskets, jardiniere bowls, and
mattings. The material is described as
light, beautiful, elastic, and enduring.
Over 500 persons are now employed
steadily in the industry, which number
is to be tripled in few months, the de-
mand for the goods warranting the cree
ton of two more plants. In the summer,
when the raw material is being gathered,
more than 5000 persons are engaged.
