WHAT'S IN A CORN STALK.
1t Can Be Turned Into smokeIess
 Powder, Dynamite. Etc.

An 1mmense cellulose plant is near when it is in operation Indian corn pith, for ages considered worthless, will be put on the market as q proteo- ton for battleships of all nations, as smokeless powder. dynamite and other high explosives, as fine art paper, as yarnish, kodak films, car-box packing filler, waterproof cloth, linoleum, imi- tation silk, patent leather finish, face powder, sflieate packing, and hun dred more. as novel and varied forms of which the farmer, who has been throwing stalks away as waste, never dreamed. The outer lining-that part which ineloses the pithAwill be made into four as an adulterant, as a cattle feed, chicken fattener anG an egg producer. Part of 1t will be made tip iuto candy, some of it into eoloring dyes, and still other parts of it will become part of far more novel pro- eesses. It will add thousands of dol- lars to the crop receipts of Indiana far mers, willo consume only that which has been waste and will furnish em. ployment for skilled workers. The an- nual average corn area of the United States is not far from 80, 0,000. .000 acres. Each acre yields on an average about 4,00O pounds of corn stalks, or a total of 160,o00,00o tons. Of this weight s per cent, or 136,000,000 tons, has value as feed, but not over ten per cent of it Is actually fed. The other fifteen per cent of the total weight, or 24, ,0O0, 600 tens. is the pith of the stalk, which has been total waste, or even worse. This Indiana concern has a process which makes it possible for them to pay $3 ton for the stalks, and pro- duce a raw material which is worth seventeen cents pound, or $34O ton. It is figured that if every ton of stalks in the United States could be so handled, it would increase the value Of each crop S0,000,0o0.

GREAT SALT LAKE.
10 Living Thing in It and No Dangol
 of Being Drowned.

Ro Living Thing in 1t and No DangoI
 of Being Drowned.
 The water of the Great Salt lake. Utah, is clear and transparent, with 3 bottom of fine white sand and mar gin of incrusted salt. It is one of the purest and most concentrated primes in the witole world. It's waters give sus, tenance to no living thing; there is not the smallest insect or worm te arighten the most timid hather, and fde bathing is the most perfect sea bathing in the whole of North Ameris ca or in Europe. No human body can s}ak in it. One may actually walk the water, no matter how deep it is. Your body will persisitently rise up, the shoulders above the surface, or you may even sit down in it. It's wonder ful baoyancy must be experienced to he realized. No knowledge of swim mi4g is necessary; one may enter the lake without the slightest fear; all you have to do is to lie down and float. But to swim in it. that is an other thing! When your hands are put under the water to take a stroke, gaur feet, like Banquos ghost, will not go down. It is impossible to keep more than one end of your body under water at a time You cannot swim. but if you are man you can float on your back. with your arms crossed under yo.r head, and smoke your pipa CT cigar with as much ease as if in four own room. The water is so salt tat it cannot be swallowed without great danger of strangulatioR; 3 small irop in the eye, too, gives much pain But, in spite of all the dangers, bath- ing in the Great Salt lake is refreshing and invigorating, notwithstanding that the body must be rebathed i'll fresh water afterward to remove the in- mense quantity of salt which adheres to the skin. It is hard work to make any headway, even against the smallest waves. Nearly haffsa million people bathe in the Great Salt lake every year; they come from all over the world, and tourists are beginning to realize that. Salt Lake City and the magnificent surroundings present the greatest scope of novelty and is des- tined to be leading watering piace.

Many of the most useful novelties of the day were evolved by women. Silk weaving was invented by the wife of the fourth Chinese emperor, bronze work by Japanese woman; the weav- ing of cashmere shaWls by woman of the Indian harem, and the lost secret of Venetian point lace was rediscov- cred by an Italian woman. Harriet Hosmer invented way to make mar hle from limestone. Mrs. Strong, who began by inventing q corset, ended by taking out patents for dams and reser~ yoirs woman invented satchel bottom paper bag and was offered s2O,- 900 for her patent before leaving Washington A Texas woman invented a digging machine, an English woman 6 horseshoe; a Fl0rida woman a rail- road car, and an Illinois woman ca; heater

WOMEN IN MARTINIQUE
Sleep seems 10 Be the Chief Industry
 There.

Sleep seems Be the Chief Industry
 There.
 That the woman who was Napoleonss s first empress, the unhappy Josephine, was born in Martinique, and lived there till she was fifteen, is remember ed,perhaps. by very few who have read of the current disorders among the people of that French West Indian is land but by the residents thereof it is never lost sight Of for moment It was in Martinique that Josephine ae- quired th6se qualities which later made her so much troHble-passion. indo- fence and indulgence. The conditions that nodded Josephine's character still exist, unchanged and apparently un- ehangeable. If there has been any change in recent years the movement has been retrogressive rather than forward. Everything tends toward all most continuous slumber in the French West Indies, from the climate to the rum. and, to speak truth no one seems in the least to strive against the slumberous influence. To the out. sider sleep seems to be the chief in- dustry 3f the islands; the people ap- pear to sleep, sleep, sleep, from morn ing till night. Of course there are times of the day when the sleeping is more nearly general than at other times, just after the m .dday breakfast, for instance, and again just after din- ner; then no one remains awake. The attempt to Christianize the harmless and peaceful savages who originally peopled the islands, now French West Indian, began 400 years ago, resulted in practical extermination, and the place of the caribs was taken by the negroes Little by little since then the influence of tie negro blood has increased; since emancipation in 1S48 the white population has decreased, the influence and interest of the whites have grown less year by year, home and social life has grown nar- rower, prejudices have grown stronger and more numerous, and there is little likelihood of lasting improvement in any direction. Washerwomen in Mar unique are made, not born. The strength, health and constitution re- quired for their calling is not neces- sary in any other. A habit of standing for days in the cold river is cultivated from childhood. Chicago News.

STALLION
capsized Boat and Gave Two rishez-
 men an Exciting Experience.

San Rafael (Cal.) Spec. San Frar. cisco Bulletin: John Bartini and Joe Lafranky, two Italian fishermen, came very near meeting their deaths the other morning off MeNear's Point, in San Pablo Bay. Bartini and Lafranky had their nets set for the purpose Of catching founders, and when the tida started to turn they proceeded to pull in, when they noticed that the nets were harder to handle than usual They thought they had an unusual large catch of founders, but when they had fully 40 fathoms of net pulled into the boat a large sea lion was noticed splashing the water at a furious rate. Bartini called to Lafranky to get an car and hit him, but just as he had said the words the sea lion stuck his head out of the water and, seeing the boat and it's occupants, made lunge, eapsizing the craft. Bartini, who is q good swimmer, immediately jumped for his partner and, seizing him by the arm, dragged him to the boat and fin9 ally managed to get him on the bottom. When the boat capsized the anchor fell overheard and the craft was made fast. The sea lion continued splashing tho water at terrific rate. and the Ital' ians were badly frightened. They called for help, but their cries were of 10 avail, as their voices could not bs heard hundred yards. the wind blow fng terrific gale. Finally, after they had been in the water for fully three hours, a schooner was sighted coming from the Patent brick yard, and the crew lowered a small boat and went to the rescue of the Italians, who were almost exhausted from fright and cold. After about an hour the boat was righted, the lion being killed with a shotgun from the schooner. It proved to be large one, weighing fully 1000 pounds. The lion was probably follow ing a shoal of herring up the bay and ran foul of the Italians net and suc- ceeded in getting tangled up In it. The net is complete wreck. This is the second time that sea lion has been so caught in San Pablo Bay and almost at the cost of life.

chi,dren and Ghost stories.


 Ihe attempt to keep your children in ignorance Of stories about ghosts, fairies, giants and gypsies would cer- sainly prove futile. If they are of a nervous and imaginative temperament they will invent new terrors for them selves instead of the ole traditional ones. A little girl of six, who had been jealously guarded against any acquaintance with nursery bogies and superstitions, suffered from night ter TOTS of severe kind, in which she always screamed out that she was be- ing chased by robbers. But while 1t may be impractieable to protect chil- dren from knowledge of the super natural and mysterious, 1t is inexcus- able to frighten them with hfdeous stories or to leave them prey to thu Jerrors Of the solitude and darkness,

IMPORTANT RULING OF
 REVENUE DEPARTMENT
Collector Bingham Receives Copy of an Or der Regarding Stamps Required on
 Conyeyances of Real Property.

Collector J. III. Bingham has received the following important ruIing elf ai1e internal revenue department on stamps required on conveyances of real property:
 Treasury Department, Office of Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
 Washington. D. C., March 9, 1900.
 The paragraph of Schedule A, relating ito the stamp tax on conveyances of real proprety is in the following language:
 Conveyapces: Deed, instrument or writ ing, whereby any lands, tenements or other realty sold shall be granted, assigned, transferred, or otherwise conveyed to or vested in the purchaser or purchasers or any person or persons, by his, her, or their direction, when the consideration or value exceeds one hundred dollars and does not exceed five hundred dollars, fifty cents; and for each additional five hum dred dollars or fractional part thereof in excess Of five hundred dollars, fifty cents. In construing the above provision it is now held that it is only upon conveyances of realty sold' that conveyance stamps are requirol-i. e., upon conveyances of realty where valuable consideration a ben eft capable of estimati in money value, either passes or has passed, or is to pass from grantee to the granter
 The word "sold' as employed in the statute, is used in my opinion not as here tofore ruled by this office, in the technical sense of purchase and sale" as contradis- tinguished for the taking by descent or op- eration of law, but in it's ordinary mean ing and acceDtation.
 The previous ruling upon this question. which is hereby reversed was rnada undar the advice of the honorable attorney gen. eral. l am in doubt concerning its correct ness and have decided henceforth to give the benefit of the doubt to the taxpayer lnasmuch, however, the former ruling may nevertheless, be the correct one, taxes heretofore paid in compliance with it will not be refunded.
