And from the time he began his career

of his death his whole life is an illustra-

And after saying many kind things
of the dead prelate, DR.. Hopkins con-

There are ignorant protestants who
denounce everything in Romanism, and

PRkcAOTloN IN POWDER MILLS
Pocketless Clothing for Employe. and
 Trousers Must Not Be Turned Up.

Pocketiess Clothing for Employes and
 Trousers Must Not Be Turned Up.
 The danger buildings of a powder mill are themselves so constructed that not nail head or iron in any shape is exposed and the roofs are made slight, so as to give easy vent to ex- plosions. The garments of the work CTS are pocketless, so that they cannot carry knives or matches, or, indeed, anything, and are made of nou-inflam- mable material. Even the buttons must not be made of metal. No one is allowed to go about with trousers turned up at the bottom, because grit is collected in that wa. and the mer- est hard speek of foreign matter in a charge of gunpowder is fraught with danger. The entrances to danger buildings are protected by boards placed edgewise, so that when the door is open nothing in the shape of dirt can work in. This also serves as a check to any one who might thought lessly enter without having first re- moved his boots and put on the over alls that are kept just inside the door Doors are made to open outward, so as to enable them to escape the more readily, and on the approach of a thun- derstorm the works are stopped and the operatives repair to the different warehouses scattered over the 300 acres covered by these extensive works. Every week the machinery is inspected and the reports as tc it's condition are printed and filed. In the case of a dan- ger building needing to be repaired it must first be washed out before a. hammer or other iron tool is admitted to it. When artificial light.is required, as when working at night or in dull weather, the lights are kept outside, being placed on the window lodges. In the case of the works magazine, which is surrounded with water, no light of any kind is ever permitted near 1t. These are only few of the precau- tions against accidents at the works. They are sufficient, however, to show how lively must be the sense of dan- ger Men in powder houses usually have an arranged plan of escape in their minds and at the least unex- pected noise have not hesitated to plunge into the canal.

NAMES BIRCH TREES.
Constables Responsible for Their Origin in That State.

Norway tMaine) Correspondence ot the New York Times: Since the paper- makers commenced to build big sul- phite mills in the Maine woods the price of spruce timber lands has doubled, and in some cases trebled. Next to spruce, the timber in greatest demand is clean and thrifty white biret, which is sawed into bars and sent by the shipload to Scotland to be used for thread spools. Nearly all the factories in the United States, and more than half of those in Great Brit ain, obtain their spool stock from Maine. According to A. A. Burleigh of Houlton, Maine, who has spent the best part of his life in the woods as a lumber operator, Maine's birch trees are due to the spiteful conduct of two employees of the Maine land office Some French Canadians in 1920 squat ted on state land near the Penobscot river and defied all efforts to eject them. Finally, in 1925, two special constables were sent to the place from the land office in Augusta, with in- struetions to make clean job of evict- ing the Frenchmen. The constables, after turning the families out, set fire to the houses and haystacks. Twelve hours later the French village was smoking mass of ashes, and the big gest forest fire ever known in the state was sweeping north. burning off more than fifty townships Of old-growth pine and doing more than $f0,000 900 damage to the state lands. Many square miles of haekmatack timber were also burned over, the fire eating ten feet into the black peat logs that had been accommodating for years and years. It is tradition that after crossing Aroostook county, the fire leaped the St. John river and swept over New Brunswick, terminating in the destruction of Afiramichi, where l20 persons perished. The survivors were forced to flee into the Gulf of St. Lawrence, where they stood neck deep in the water for two days and a night, while deer, caribou, moose bears and wolves swan around them, seeming to seek protection from their enemies. After the fire had burned itself out and the land had absorbed the alkali of the ashes, about 5000 900 acres came up to wild cherry and white birch saplings. For more than ten years the two species struggled for control of the territory. Then the black knot, which had been imported from Europe, killed off the wild cherry trees, giving the birches the right of way. About 50,oO0,oo0 board feet Of spool bars are now shipped cut of Maine every year and the supply ia still large.

NATURAL WOODS IN eucorEs.
They May Largely supplant the Old
 Style Painted Vehicle.

The conventional black-painted buggy will have sharp competition next season by the revival of the de- mand for natural woods. Already many of the buggy manufacturers have laid in large stocks of fine woods and are making them up in a large number of light pleasure vehicles fol single horses. Many samples are shown in windows around the city. and the boulevards give promise oi having light-colored rigs galore fol ne1t year. The woods are highly pol tsaed and in beauty will compare with s tadsomest pianos. Birch, birds,
 ,p.e and oak will be the woods
 =enerally used, because, while F finish beautifully, they are the ei. Lest. The oak will be stained in sa1e instances, giving it the rich gold and darker shades. Mahogany and beech are the kinds selected by those who prefer the dsep rich red shades. Mahogany also gives considerable va riation in color, that portion near the heart being darker than the part close to the bark of the tree. Careful match. ing of the shades produces 8 charming affect. Ash and poplar augment the yellow shades. Hard maple has a good even dark color, and walnut ranges from dark to light. One order has been placed for red cedar, and it is said to be coming out of the prepara- tory courses a remarkably handsome production. By far the handsomest wood that can be used, in my opinion" said an experienced Wabash avenue buggy maker yesterday, ssis the syea- more, and there will be a number of buggies made of it. l made one in Wisconsin years ago, and believe it WAS the prettiest p1eee of wood I ever saw, and the coloring and shading is nest brilliant. It is of light red color, and good piece, well finished, gives the idea of flames, or sometimes like the sunshine on dancing water Such a piece of wood, passing rapidly before the eyes in a good bright light, will make any one admire it, while the more sentimental will be in raptures. Cypress is much like the sycamore. fanny and reddish, but not quite so brilliant. Rosewood and Circassian and French walnuts are magnificent and will be used in many. In these huggies the dash as we'll as the body will be of the finest pieces that we can get, and we expect to have the most beautiful buggies in Chicago next year that can be found anywhere. There Is no reason why the buggy should always be black-no more than there IS reason a person should always wear black clothes, and natural wood buggy, in addition to it's fine appear ance, is cheaper to keep and requires little work to keep it clean. Eveq when dirty it is presentabte. Chi cago Chronicle.

Chinese Tea Transported Through Kussis
 The Siberian News. of Tomsk. is ona Of the few newspapers published in Si- beria, and gives some interesting par ticulars in regard to the transportation of Chinese tea through Russia. The Tomsk newspaper says proudly that in the first twenty days of last January no less than 19,000 sleighs loaded with tea passed through the Siberian city. Every sleigh carries usually five bales of tea, packed in OK skin, each weigh. ing from 100 to 160 pounds. Tie men sleep on the sleighs during the trip across Siberia. which lasts nearly one year. It would be shorter to send the Chinese tea by sea; but in this case the custom house duties are high, while they are comparatively small on tea imported by the land route. Russian merchants, who have long had most ot the European tea business in their lands, are greatly disturbed over the great growth in public favor of the Ceylon teas which are distributed from andr-R
