Makes II Probable That Garments Of
This Fur VIII Soon Be a curlo.
The Treasury Department has re.
ceived a report from the special agent
who has been experimenting the
catching of fur seals IN the Arctic dur
ing the past season. His report shows
that this valuable animal Is getting
scarcer every year. and that unless ex.
IRENE measures are soon adopted TO
prevent their determination, IL will be
but a matter OF time before sealsliin
sacques win be regarded as curios.
The Treasury Department restricted
the catch OF seals IN the American
district to $4,000. but the best the seal
era could do was TO catch 10000 AMI
mails. This merely indicates the scare.
iey Of the seals, for those taken under
the supervision Of tho United States
authorities will not be missed In the
hri. No females are permitted TO be
slain In our territory. the killing being
limited to males over 2 years Of age
The danger OF complete humiliation
OF the herd is In the operations OF the
pelagic sealers, those who roam about

and without discrimination as TO age
or sex The prey OF these sealers Is
confined almost entirely to females
which are slow Of movement and fall

quent occurrence During the season
on 1888 the Treasury Department re-
stricted the catch in American terri
tory to $1,000. and during the year just
ended limit OF $4,000 was named
Next year it Is probable that this will
be scaled down to $4,000, with pros
poets for tho catch being hardly 10 600
The only thing that can save tho herd
from complete extinction, says the de
partment officials, Is an early agree
mcnt between Great Britain and the
United States 10 prohibit the catching
OF al seals except males more than
years old.-Brooklyn Eagle.

WORKERS AMONG corToNsEEp

New Machine Which Is Designed to
Monopolized Their Business.
An always interesting sight to New
Orleans visitors has been the large
gangs OF darldes unloading cotton
seed from the barges at the oil mills,
piling the sacks of seed on the heavy
trucks and trundling them down the
wharf into the mill, singing Justify the
while. The picturesque side Of the
old-time method Of unloading seed by
no means appeals to the owners Of the
mills, however. Such labor Is very
expensive, and sometimes impossible
to obtain. Competition in the manu-
facture of cottonseed products Is very
keen. and unnecessary handling Of
the raw material must be done away
with wherever practicable. The big
grain elevators, built right up to the
deep water, have long ago solved the
problem. but with the oil mills at
Gretna, built back of the levee, with
their wharves stretching q considera-
BILE distance into the river, and with
these wharves sinking and twisting all
the time from the action Of the cur
rent and the treacherous river bed,
the question how to unload their
barge and carry the seed back into the
mills at a low cost has been until now
3 very difficult one to answer.
The Union Mil Company has re.
Gently installed at its large Crescent
mill at Gretna a plant for rapidly and
economically unloading seed from
barges, which seems to meet all the
conditions. The main part Of the sys'
TEN is q belt conveyor, running on
tcestle work along the wharf, and
thence under the roof of the mill
Along this conveyor the seed is car
ried from the end OF the wharf, 250
feet to a point in the mill, where 1t is
weighed and either stored or distrib
uted direct to the crushers. From the
time Il Is taken from the barges until
Il leaves the mill az a finished product
the seed is not touched by hand
The present capacity of the plant is
about 400 bushels (seventy tons) OF
cottonseed per hour, but this can be
largely increased. It is estimated that
the construction will pay for itself in
wages saved in less than two seasons

OPERA HOUSE.
The Bennett & Moulton Company
opened a weeks engagement at the
Opera House last evening by presenting
"Darket Russia" to a crowded house.
Long before the opening Of the doors
every seat was sold. The play pleased
all present, as every part showed care
fnl study. The orchestra which accom-
panies the company rendered several
fine selections, and the scenery was ex-
cellent, and compared favorably with
any ever shown in this city. Some OF
the specialties were the best ever seen
here. and were thoroughly appreciated
by The audience. This evening the COM
pany will present THE Prisoner OF AL
giers," a well-known production, which
will no doubt draw another large house
During each afternoon and evening this
week the company will appear in a diff

average Christian professor when self

en- who not only rejoice in doing their
duty for Christ, but even rejoice In
overcoming uncomfortable obstacles
IN the doing of it are quite too scarce.
The piety that is most needed is a
piety that viii stand a pinch; a piety
that would rather eat an honest crust
than fare sumptuously on fraud; n
picly that works up stream against
currents; a piety that sets its face like
flint in the straight. narrow road OF
righteousness. We need more Of the
Christianity that steadily sets its face
toward Christ's word and holy will.

who carry Jesus in their faces. OF
such is the kingdom OF heaven.-Rey.
