Pacific Coast Lumbermen Have a Sur.
plus on Hand.
Tacoma, Wash, May 31,-The Pa
c1lc Coast Lumber Manufacturers as
ISOLATION met here during the day and
discussed the best means Of disposing
Of the present overproduction of the
Washington and Oregon mills,
amounting annually to 4O0,0Oo,00O
feet of fir lumber.
Most Of the lumber comprises COM
mon grades, which cannot be shipped
1000 miles to Eastern markets be-
cause of high freight rates. The lum-
bermen claim the problem will be
solved if the railroads will extend the
rate of 40 cents per 100 pounds from
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Alliance,
Neb., to all Missouri river points.
Such an extension will permit the
Puget Sound lumbermen to supply
1900 lumber yards in Iowa alone,
besides hundreds in Nebraska, Mis-
souri, and other states.

TRANSPARENT MIRRORS.

Mirrors that one can see through
are new invention already coming
into use. They are of SO called
"platinized glass;" being backed
with compound made Of IS per
cent silver and 5 per cent platinum,
and, OFFICIALLY speaking, they are ex-
ceedingly curious and interesting.
Looking into a glass of this kind,
one finds first rate reflection. It
is a mirror and nothing more. At
the same time a person on the 9TH
er side can see directly through it.
For example, a glass of this sort
placed in front of the prescription
desk in an apothecary shop perfect
ly conceals the prescription clerk
and his apparatus. Thus the pri-
vacy of that department. is secured,
while on his part the clerk is able to
survey the shop and see everybody
who comes in, just as If the mirror
were ordinary glass. It is transpar-
ent to him, but is like any common
mirror from the viewpoint of people
in front. It is easily seen that glass
of this kind is likely to be useful for
a good many purposes. It can be
put in the doors Of dark bathrooms
or of any other rooms where privacy
is desirable and light is wanted.
Anybody who has observed his own
reflection in the plate glass win
dows of shops will understand the
principle well enough. The effect
is merely enhanced by an extremely
thin coat Of platinum silver, which
allows light to pass through and yet
furnishes an excellent looking glass.
The process consists in pouring over
plate glass nitrate of silver and plat
mum and then applying rochelle
salts.-Saturday Evening Post.

MAY AFFECT THOUSANDS.
Mashinfsts' Strike In Chicago De
clared General.


Chicago, May 31.-The machinists'
strike is on in full blast here as a
result of the failure Of the arbitrator
to reach an agreement. According to
the calculations Of the union strike
leader, Roderick, about 1000 machin-
lists are involved in the general walk
out. This in only half the number Of
union machinists in Chicago and vi
cinity. 1t is claimed by Roderick and
others Of the unions executive board
that the reason the other 1000 will
not be affected is because their en-
ployers have either signed the union
scale of wages already OF expressed
their willingness to sign.
Whether the strike Of the machin-
lists will involve other lines Of labor
at the plants where strikes go into
force is deemed problematical. All
along it has been the claim Of the,
union machinists that strike by them
would result in the complete tieup of
every foundry or workshop under the
ban Of their strike order. If these
claims are made good the general
strike now declared would throw per-
haps $4,000 or 10000 men OUT OF en-
ployment in Chicago as that is the
total number estimated in the en-
ployment Of the local manufacturers
who have membership in the National
Metal Trades association.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
The Latest Notions Present Some At
tractive Draperies.

The Latest Notions Present Some Al
tractive Draperies.
The window hangings, draperieE
in general and other accessories thai
make for the adornment Of the
house beautiful and that the ari
decorators are now showing are lux
urious to degree. 1t is noticeable
that there is as much latitude allow
ed in the selection of draperies by
the woman who would be fashiona-
BILE, so far as her house is concern
ed, as there is in the choice of her
wardrobe.
The holland or plain linen shade
that for so many years remained un-
adorned save for more or less
elaborate fringe is now transformed
into a thing Of beauty by fringe
Of applique lace and insertion Of the
same in artistic pattern. In one
style Of holland line shade seen
recently the applique design was on
a foundation Of black net, but the
color was not apparent when the
light shone through the shade, and
the combination Of the light buff
linen and the lace was exceedingly
effective.
Brussels net with broad border
of silk applique on heavy net repre-
sents one of the latest designs in
handsome lace curtains, although
Arabian lace is still the favorite lii
the more costly window hangings.
In the line of heavier drapery for
the window or for portiere use the
silk curtains in the most delicate
shades, with embroidered edge in
silk to match and applique or silk
in self color, are exquisite, particu-
larly in the shades of pale pink and
blue that are just a little darker
than the pastel colorings.
For summer use in particular, but
not necessarily confined to this par
tirular season, are the Scotch mad
ras curtains, which are now found
on the list. They can hardly be
considered as costly or luxurious
draperies, but they are beautiful in
the finer grades, which drape as
gracefully as crepe de chine and are
really as soft as this poplar dress
material. To mention the color
combinations would be to catalogue
all the possible variations Of yellow
and brown and red and blue and
green and pink in artistic effect.
Morris tribune., 1901-06-01
Color In Decorations.

It is quite common thing for
rooms to be decorated with one par
ticular color, paint, carpet and
hangings all agreeing, so that they
can be known as the "green ROOM
or the 'Fblue room" or the "pihk
room," ETC., according to their col
orings. The idea works out charm-
ingly, but failure sometimes comes
about through too great sameness
in the color of the surroundings.
The decorations Of a room may be
emphasized by one particular color
scheme, but yet admit of slight re-
lief color being introduced to avert
monotony. A green room, for in
stance, may be relieved with a touch
of gold in the damask hangings,
wall paper OF carpet or with dash
Of terra Gotta if preferred, and in
the same way a pink room can have,
by way of association, touches of
canvas color, fawn or pale green. A
blue room can be relieved with iYo-
ry or dull gold, yellow room with
white or very little faint blue, and
a red room will look all the better
for being touched up with a soft
shade of green. Green, in fact, is
color that in one or another of its
varying shades is a safe "associa-
ton" with almost any hue. Of this
fact we may take lesson from ma
ture, the brightest flower of whatso-
ever color being beautifed by it's ac-
companying green leaf.
Two shades of the same color can
be used instead of a strong contrast
if preferred. The woodwork of the
room will look all the better for be- |
ing painted deeper shade than the
walls. It will thus throw up the
paler tint and balance the whole
better.

Smokes a Pencil.

David Bispham, the singer, has
broken himself Of the habit of
smoking cigarettes in so simple a
way that he wants everybody else
addicted to the habit to try his
method.
81 used to wonder" Mr.. Bispham
said the other day in a voice that
proclaimed his desire to give the
method all possible publicity,
whether it was the smoke [ enjoyed
or merely the sensation of holding
the cigarette in my mouth. [ de-
cided that it was in all probability
only the latter. To cure myself I
began by putting into my mouth
whenever I felt like smoking piece
of pencil and keeping it there until
my temporary nervousness passed
away. After I had done that for
week I found the pencil just as sat
isfactory as the cigarette, and de-
cided that it was not the tobacco to
which I was victim. In less than
a month ] had entirely broken my
self of the habit of smoking ciga-
rettes, and / have never gone back
to them. Whenever I feel particu-
larry strong longing for one, / puff

The waiIack Ghost.

No traces of the ghost that used
to haunt the old Star theater have
been discovered by the workmen
who have destroyed the building, yet
it once attained the dignity of inves-
tigation by one Of the psychical So
cieties. It was said to be the ghost
Of James Wallack, the member of
the family that built the theater
and moved there from his playhouse
farther down Broadway. The old
actor was supposed for years to
haunt the building and was seen in
various parts Of the theater by SO
many persons that an encounter
with the specter came to be regard
ed as a matter Of course in the es-
Enlistment.
The stories Of these encounters
we're SO frequent and narrated with
such conviction that the matter was
formally taken up by a scientific So
ciety, which never rendered any re-
port Of its conclusions on the sub
ject. It was thought that something
to explain the ghost might be found
when the building was torn down,
but so far there has been nothing
that might suggest the origin of the,
belief held by all the theater en-
ployees that the specter of old
James Wallack was accustomed to
walk in the building for many years.

Old Geronimo.

Geronimo, the noted Apache
chief, lives, at the age of "a, in
frame house near Fort Sill, O. T.,
with an income of over $1,000
year. While little in sympathy with
modern civilization, the old chief
appreciates one of its inventions, the
camera. He charges SIS for his pic
ture. He always looks his toughest
in his pictures. He likes to strike
an attitude OF devilish ferocity when
being photographed. The older he
grows the greater is his desire to
make fendish appearance. Five
years ago, when he first went to Fort
Sill, he was content to wear white
mems clothes and consented to have
himself photographed wearing
them. Now when he poses he looks
like the old time redskin Of the Apa-
che tribe. This is because he sees
that his war clothes attract more at
,tention from white visitors. He
does his best to give them their mon
ey's worth and to live up to their
expectations.

New York, May 31.-A dispatch to
The Tribune from Havana says:
Acquiescence in the will of the ma
iority is dominant, but the conven-
tons acceptance Of the Platt amend
ment has been quickly followed by
pleas for harmony. The minority Of
the rahid Radicals were bitter against
the supporters Of the amendment, but
their bitterness finds little popular
support, especially since it has been
shown that the majority Of those who
voted in the affirmative were Of the
class Of revolutionists who did some
fighting.
General Lacret's bellicose telegram
about death and independence" is
ridiculed, and he Is advised that 1t Is
better to live and to make the most
possible out Of life.
AS an Offset to the violent mes
sages, General Manduley, one of the
Santiago delegates, who voted against
the amendment, telegraphed to his
constituents that the country should
respect the action Of the convention
and should strive for peace and good
order. He condemned agitation and
announced that he should cooperate
with the majority in making an eff
fective acceptance Of the American
conditions. Others Of the minority
made similar statements, and pro-
tested against the ultra-Radicals crit
icizing the majority when the con-
troversy had been merely a difference
of opinion.
The Spanish press voices its relief
at the end Of the uncertainty but
makes little further comment.
Commercial circles express great
satisfaction at the outcome. The
merchants union, which includes the
leaders in the commerce of the entire
island, has held meeting and has
taken steps to urge upon the dele
gates the Importance of intimate COM
mercia1 relations with the United
States, following the termination Of

A hint that will be acceptable to

cooking of veal outlets. A tough
outlet is so common that it is ac-

The simple act of scoring outlet on

knife, drawing many fine lines
quickly across, accomphshes a re-
markable change in the meat after
