Making Pool Table Pockets.

''An odd occupation. surely said a

that of knitting pol table pockets. A
few persons find steady employment at
it, but the greater number of those
engaged in 1t take it up incidentally to
some other employment.
"Of all the pol pockets used the largest
proportion is made in farmhouses by
farmers wives and daughters. The
women who do this work are mostly
Germans and Swedes.
Pool table pockets are all hand made.
The largest producer of pool pockets
is concern here in New York that

several families thus employed are made

1.-THE knitting is done with a needle
20 inches in length, and the pockets are
knitted with a peculiar knot that will
not pull out. You might cut a hole in
a pocket with a knife. but the hole
would go no further. As the pocket is
knitted it will not pull or draw apart.
"Pool pockets are made of cotton. of

for s1.25 or thereabut a dozen: silk
pockets sell for about $40 dozen.

Anaconda. Nov. 21.-An attempt was
made last Tuesday night to burglarize
the jewelry store of l.. Verbeckmoes. To-
Gated in the new Weiss block on East
Park avenue 1t took two shots from
SS-caliber revolver belonging to Mr..
Verbeckmoes to frighten the would-be
burglar away. When captured few
moments later by a policeman 1t was
found that he was drunk and an old set
tier in the vicinity of Anaconda. He was
not arrested.
1t was quite late at night when
Verbeckmoes was aroused from his sum-
bers by noise at the rear door OF his
building. 1t might be well to say that
Mr.. Verbeckmoes and his family reside
In the rooms Immediately behind the jew
elry store.
Upon going to investigate, Mr.. YER
beckmoes found that some one was try
Ing to unlock the door. He called out to
know what was wanted. The man re-
Piled that he wanted in for a few mo-
ments, whereupon Verbeckmoes, salts
fed that he was about to be held up
told him that if he did not go away he
would shoot. The reply came to the eff
feet that the man on the outside was not
afraid.
Jeweler Gets Gun.
The jeWeler then went BACK TO seek his
revolver, and the one who was trying to
force an entrance gave up trying to I'M
lock the door and began to push. YER
beckmoes returned and climbed upon a
shelf near the door, from where he could
see the other fellow. He fired one shot
over the transom to brighten the man.
but he paid not the slightest attention.
Another shot struck the door just in
front Of where the man on the outside
was working. Only for the fact that it
stuck in the door, it would have pierced
the burglars skull. The second shot
acted as an incentive to him, and he
beat hasty retreat.
Verbeckmoes then called a policeman.
who went in search of the fellow. He
came back soon and reported to the jew
eler that the fellow was only drunk
and that he did not know what he was
doing: besides he was an old resident
of this city and far from being burglar,
SO he was not arrested.
Burglar Talking to Self.
Mr.. Verbeckmoes is considerably
worked up over the matter, however. He
says that he has no desire to kill even a
burglar; to say nothing Of common
drunk, but that with people prowling
around the town in such manner he
certainly thinks he was justified in shoot
ing as he did. He also stated that the
man was evidently talking to himself, for
he (Verbeckmoes) thought at the time
there were two men on the outside of the
door and was not aware that he was mis-
taken until after he had fired the first
shot.
