/ DELICATE FABRICS FROM ILOILO.
Perhaps the most attractive package
received from the Philippines in this

roll of exquisite nuns yelling, which
was made by the natives. Rolled up
with the cloth We're two shuttles, with
the bobbins in place, and which the ma

Accompanying the package was let
ter which was dated at Iloilo, December
Is, and contained a few facts about the
manufacture of the cloth. Lieut. Sui
Ivan wrote that the cloth is made by
the natives of Iloilo in the cottages, and

We're of dark wood, and were well
polished, as if they had been used to a

PROUD OF HIS LABELS.

A distinguishing young man board
ed a Fourteenth street car at Massa-
chusetts avenue the other night. He
was carrying a leather suit case. Past
ed all over the suit case were labels in
dicating much foreign travel-steamer
pastors, slapped on at Dieppe, Havre
Ostend, Bremen, Cherbourg, Liverpool,
Yarmouth, Naples and railroad labels
that bore the names of all lines all the
way from Constantinople to st. Pc
tersburg. The young man of distangy
appearance put the suit case down be-
tween his legs, and all the people in the
seats opposite began a fascinated sort
of inspection of the labels A stout
man with several of the component
parts of jag who sat next to the young
man seemed to ragard the labels with
particular interest. He stopped over
and deciphered them carefully and ella
borately, and then looked up at the
owner of the>suit case with a leer.
Been around right smart, hain't you,
podner?" he inquired.
The young man regarded him with a
smile.
Never been farther away from
Washington than New York in my life, y
he replied, without any hesitation what
soever. IT got that whole bunch of la
bells for half dollar, at little money
exchanging joint, down near the Bat
terry in New York. Hot scheme, isn't
it?"
The frankness of the statement so
dazed several of the passengers who
overheard it that they got off at sthe
wrong theater.- Washington Post.

Prevent AsphyxiatiOn.

NEW YORK. Aug. ia dispatch to the
Times from Paris says: Highly interest
ing demonstrations of the properties of
bioxide of sodium are being given before
the French Academy of Science. Bioxide
of sodium is found TO possess the property
of renewing the oxygen in air that has been
breathed and in absorbing carbonic acid
gas given off,. Thus with an apparatus
containing the sodium. show by Desgrey
and Balthouard at the academy, a diver
can remain under water and work without
having the air renewed by the pumping
apparatus at present employed. Moreover,
by means of the new appliance miners will
be able 10 penetrate into poisonous gases
and foul air and fremen into smoke with
out fear of asphyxiation. II will also rem
der practical submarine boats. Ample
proofs of all that is claimed for 1t were
given. Two men put on diving dresses
from which all air was excluded and re-
manned inclosed two hours. Afterward the
same men remained under water in the
Seine during half al hour. The expert
ments are creating the greatest interest
