BOGUS BATTLE SCENES
Made to Order ny FrSnohmsn -, PosInF
For tho scenes.

For tho Scenes,
New York correspondence Chicago
Inter Ocean; The demand for photo
graphs OF Boer war scenes for publ
cation has 30 far outrun the supply
that ingenious Frenchmen have de-
vised scheme by which any style NJ
war pictures may be made TO order on
short notice. The French photographs
have secured some old horses, a few
guns and score or more of supers
from one OF the Paris theaters. Tho
supers, who are photographed as
Beers, may be distinguished by their
long whiskers, and the Engllshmen
may be known at glance by their
uniforms. Near Paris imitation
breastworks have been constructed,
and these are stormed several times a
day by the supers while the camera
man takes their pictures. When q
general officer is wounded the scene ls
produced by the aid OF an old horse
and a super, who Is photographed In
the act OF falling out of the saddle.
Such little odds and ends of war as
photographs Of snlpers, plckets,
stretcher-bearers, etc, are easily coun-
terfeited before camera, and the re-
suits are Just as good for the papers
which buy them as would be photo
graphs from the battlefield. There 10
one genuine picture Of ford some
where In South Africa which has done
service every time river Is crossed.
1t Is a peaceful looking picture, with
a big tree at the left in the foreground,
a shallow river behind II, and half o
dozen cows or sheep wadlng to tho
farther shore. Whenever any division
OF the English army has crossed
river anywhere this picture has been
trotted out to illustrate the exact place
OF crossing. II the English forces keep
on maneuvering as they have for the
past two months they may cross this
particular river at this very ford.
Along with the mass Of counterfeit pic
lures which are sold In this country
are many genuine ones. None of the
genuine photographs up to date, how
ever, has been half 80 dramatic as the
French counterfeit.

FROM CRADLE TO GRAVE.


Chicago, March 9O.-Unless body
goes to It's last resting place in union
made coffin, II will be refused burial
in the cemeteries Of Chicago and
vicinity, II the plans Of the labor un-
ions to organize a gravediggers' union
are carried out, Already they have
compelled the placing Of union labels
on every cradle manufactured, and it
Is the avowed object Of the unions TO
unionize everything from the cradle to
the grave, inclusive.
TO enforce the use Of union coffins,
the woodworkers, as soon as they
have unionized the factories, will at-
tempt to organize the gravcdiggers
into union and have them refuse alb
solutcly to inter q body unless 1t Is
incased in union made caskct, 1t is
estimated that there are about 1870
gravediggers employed in the ccme-
terics Of Chicago,
1--WE already have the union label on
all cradles made, said Secretary John
Lee, OF the woodworlSers, "and why
should we not have union cofIins and
union gravediggers? Tito the interest
of the laboring men to have every
thing used, from tbs cradle to the
grave, union made, Other trades have
brought about the use OF union made
underwear, the drinking of union
beer, the smoking of union cigars, the
consumption of union bread, and why
should we not unionizc our product?"

Watt, the great improVer Of thu

Gabulary of machinists the term horse
power. When he first began the man
ufacture of steam engines, he experl-
enced much difficulty In ascertaining
from his distant customers what sized
engine they required, and they were
not less puzzled how to communicates
to- him the information. He was fire.
quently guided, however, by their
mentioning the number Of horses
which the engine ordered was design
cd to replace. Acting upon this hint,
he ascertained by experiment that the
very strongest Of the London brewers
horses (animals OF wonderful size and
strength), could exert q force equiva-
lent to raising $4,000 pounds one foot
a minute. This force he called one
horse power, and adopted 1t as the
standard in regulating the size OF
steam engines. Now, not one horse
in hundred Is able to exert that de-
gree Of strength. A steam engine of
ten horsepower can, In reality, do the
work OF about twenty horses

not buy your peas or potatoes by tho

ask the market woman in her stall,
and she replies so much saucer.
