THE NEW TENANT.

Now, when he left my life drew
Close shut the easements of my heart
And locked the door, and in each part
Strange darkness reigned, forlorn and new.
There pierced no happy sunshine through
The barrier of fastened doors;
The dust lay thick upon the floors
Where rosemary was strewn and rue.
But on a certain day came one
Who knocked and would not be denied
And threw the rusted easements wide
And entered with the wind and sun.
The dingy webs that grief had spun,
The dust that sad neglect had laid,
The faded hangings, rent and frayed,
Had vanished ere his work was done.
Oh, he hath swept my heart for me
Clean of old sorrowing and doubt,
And he hath set it all about
With peace and happy certainty!
Oh, home be glad for such as he
And very sweet nor let him find
That ghost one tenant left behind,
That silent, sad eyed memory!
-Theodosia Garrison in Harper's Bazaar.

A MOST interesting and meritorious
work is Bradish's Old Morse stories, just
issued by the American Book Co. The
author has told, in simple and attractive
language for young readers, some of the
most popular mythical and folklore sto-

of northern Europe.

ned mutton to the home country; but
when cold storage was introduced Aus
tralia began her shipments of frozen
mutton which has grown amazingly.
until In 1900 these exports amounted
to 225,0Oo000 pounds. Meanwhile her
shipments Of timed meats steadily ad-
vanced. reaching last year 45,000.0O
pounds.
Look for a moment over her mineral
wealth for year: Because of the war
In the Transvaal and an immense min
ing development in West Australia, the
new Federation in 1899. with $6000O, 900
output. led the world in output of gold
BY constant gains her silver product
mas come to equal one-ninth OF the
worlds supply. For the past year her
total mineral output amounted to near
ly 500. ZOO, 900. or s25 to every inhabi-
tant. Her mineral possibilities in cop
per, tin, lead. antimony. iron. quick
silver and coal cannot be ovaresti-
mated.
AS result of her astonishing fertil-
lty, Australian shipping has reached
the total of 20.0o0,OOO tons. Her first
railway-that from Sydney to PARA
matta-was opened in 1855. 1t was
only fourteen miles in length. To-day
she owns $4,000 miles of railways. A
curious light on her prosperity IL the
fact that she has a million items in
her daily mail, in proportion to her
population the highest average in the
world.
What is more remarkable is that this
colossal national wealth has been built
up by only four millions OF people. AS
a consequence. average individual
wealth in Australia is the highest in
the world. For instance, let us COM
pare the child with the parent-Aus-
tralia with England. Australia's rev.
enue for this year will probably exceed
S15O,OOO.O00. which sum is nearly one
third that of England's. But with
only one-tenth of England's popula-
tion. Australia is. therefore, individual
ly three and a third times richer than
the mother country. Then there are
the savings banks. with $700,000,000 in
deposit. This gives $50 per head 10
the people of Australia, again the
highest average in the world.

Queer Anthracite Specimens.

Charles Law, Of West Pittston, has
for many years been authority on all
things pertaining to the history OF this
valley and its products. and especially
upon minerals.
Yesterday he showed to Daily
News reporter two specimens which
are now on their way to the Smith
sonian Institute at Washington, D. c..
and which later will form a portion OF
n collection to be placed on exhibi-
ton ut the Pan-American exposition
at Ruffalo. One of these specimens,
found in the Butler mine, is purely
coal and in weight about five pounds,
and its popularity is that when en-
posed to the light, there is a ref1ec-
ton of all the colors OF the rain
bow.
The other was egg shaped and was
found in what is known as a pot-hole
in Wyoming and on the exact spot
where cave occurred several years
ago. wrecking the postoffice in that
borough. OF course, there are thols-
ands of mineral specimens displayed
in places that have been unearthed in
this valley, but the above are the lat
est finds and are OF such value that
they will find a place in the greatest
institution in this country and at the
nations capital.-Wilkes-Ba News.

President Mitchell Coming.

President John Mitchell, of the Uni
ted Mine Workers of America. will be
in this city Friday National Com
mitteeman Frederick Dilcher gave out
this information yesterday, but de.
clined to shed any light upon the
wherefore of Mr.. Mitchell's coming.
It is understood, however, that there
are a number of matters IL Importance
which will be attended to by the ma
tional president. Committeeman Dill
cher lays great stress upon the mass
meetings which are being nightly held
throughout the district. Both national
and district organizers address these
asscmblages, of which there are sew
eral each night. and feature in their
speeches intimations and advice to the
younger help.
Dilcher argues that this is the most
potent and intelligent manner of deal
ing with the matter of local strikes,
and that the more apprehensive view
of his duties taken by the young en-
ploye. the less is the likelihood of pet
ty difficulties arising.

o'clock yesterday morning. organized
and were in session until noon.
They met again in the afternoon,
but adjourned shortly after o'clock
to meet again this morning. The pro-
ceedings were entirely of D. secret ma
ture and beyond the fact that they
are preparing a list of grievances. TO
he submitted to Superintendent c. G.

tion.
The committee from the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western collieries
met again yesterday. in the small
room adjoining the hall in which the
Delaware and Hudson miners assem-

men have not yet waited upon Super

ARTIFICIAL SILK.
Some of It Made from Cotton and
Some from Glue.

Some from Glue.
| Harvey Sutherland in Ainslce's.
Cotton has often 1nasqueraded as
silk, but it seems rather queer that it
can be made into real silk. The nj
trated cotton is put into a cylinder
with ether-alcohol and slowly revolved
for twelve hours. Then under pres
sure of forty-five atmospheres. it is
squirted out of glass tubes whose bore
is 1000 of an inch. The air solidifies
the threads as they are carried along
on moving belts. They are fine as silk
worm fllaments and as lustrous. They
take dyes we'll, but they are so in
fammable as to be almost explosive.
obviously q fatal defect. Just here
is where the modern chemist shows
the kind of creature he is and what
his principles are. l don't know what
you think of a man that deliberately,
and to compass his own selfish ends,
takes advantage of the little weak
nesses Of the elements and Introduces
tempter into peaceful chemical COM
binations to lead astray some men,
bers. Such men exist. They get their
living by such tricks. They even hold
up their heads and call themselves re-
spectacle. Here is this nitryl, living
happily, so far as We know, with cellu-
lose, and along comes the chemist and
brings in a smirking, stylish Lothario
OF a Sulphydrate of calcium. and away
goes the giddy. deluded nitryl leaning
on his arm Just like the poor lady i'm
"East Lynne" All that the deserted
artificial silk can do after that is TO
look pretty. 1t never pIucks up the
courage to explode. Well. it's a queer
world.
one OF the uses of this modification
or the cottony. pithy structure found
in all vegetables is to spin it into
threads and char 1t for the luminous
loops in incandescent lamps. Also.
when woven into a kind of bobbinet
and impregnated with the oxides of
thorlum and cerum, ii makes the
mantle of the Welsbach light.
Artificial silk can also be made out
OF glue. The gelatine is dissolved in
water to the proper consistency, dyed
and forced through tiny glass tubes
as with the celliilose silk. it Is really
and animal product like the slkworm
SILK, but the manufacturers have not
vet been able to get the appliances for
"ater-proofing the thread with the
Vapor or formaline that the siIkworm
has which 'secretes the same drug for
the same purpose. Also, ii is quite diff.
ncult to dry the thread quickly on the
carrying belts, for YOU can easily see
that they cannot be made very long.
Another dificulty is that the silk must
be dyed before II is spun. and as gela-
tine has a way of not being The same
shade for the same quality of sticki-
ness 1t Is pretty hard TO tell what
color you will get till 1t is dry. II
the spun, threads are soaked in the
dye-pot, the stuff thinks that this is
a new way of making wine jelly and
makes all possible haste to change IL
self from dress goods into dessert.
Still, it makes a very pretty silk. II
you don't wear it out in a rain storm.
