An Italian Industry Carried On Along
Primitive Lines

The German Nachrichten fur Han
del und Industrie contains some in
teresting details as to the production
ofpumice stonein Italy. Thisis found
principally on the island of Lipari, in
the northwest of which there is a large
deposit from one to four meters thick,
and covering about 1900 hectares
1865 acres, which consists Of pun
ice mixed with lightly cemented vol
canic ash The pumice deposits are
worked in very primitive fashion by
means of small quarries. The num-
Der Of these is from 200 to 220, but
most of them are worked only from
May to October, two-thirds being
abandoned during the winter months.
At the time of greatest activity about
800 persons, including 100 women,
are employed in the excavations. In
1890 the production amounted to 49,
900 tons, and has increased since that
date. The sale price Of pumice stone
varies between 37s. Cd. and Ell IS. per
ton, but very fine qualities are also
produced, which fetch e75 and even
nearly f200 per ton; the average price,
however, is from SIS to f6 per ton.
The pumice stone produced is
sold to merchants, who sort it
according to color, weight and size,
and send it to the town of Lipari to be
cleaned and polished. The refuse and
broken pieces are ground in hand
mills to powder. There are 16 recog-
nized qualities and varieties of pumice
stone in the market, some of the finest
qualities being used in cleaning and
polishing works of art, other qualities
for lithographing purposes, preparing
leather, etc. About 300 work people,
1870 being females, are employed in
the factories engaged in the prepare
tion and cleansing of pumice stone
for sale.

HOW TO GO TO BUFFALO.
Pointers For Persons Wishing to
Attend the Pan-American
Exposition.

Millions of dollars have been ex-
pended to make the Pan American
Exposition at Buffalo an interest.
ing and instructive affair. That
end has been accomplished and
persons who witness the grand dis
play will be impressed by the mag
nitude of the project. 1t is purely
an IAN America" enterprise and
all Americans should see it.
All tickets to Buffalo over the
new Akron Route are good for stop
over at Chautauqua Lake; and all
tickets over this route via Buffalo
to st. Lawrence River and Cana
dian Resorts and eastern points.
including New York, can be made
good for stop-overs at the Pan
American Exposition and at Mia
CARA Falls. The expense for tickets,
the comforts enjoyed en- route, the
sights to be seen, and the privileges
for extending journeys to the most
noted summer Ravens in the Lake
Region, should be investigated.
Persons who may think they are
not able to stand the cost will be
surprised at the enjoyment and
pleasure they may experience at
small expense. Those who visited
the Worlds Fair will also be agree
able surprised at the Pan-Ameri-
can Exposition, and those who have
never attended an occasion of this
kind should not MISS this oPportuni-
ty to be a true American by attend
ing an American Exposition. c. H.

zen, il is the damnable murder of
Mckinley, the president, that melts
I5.0O0,000 hearts into one and brings
a hush to the farm. the factory and
the forum.
"One of the many striking and
touching incidents occurring at Buff
falo was the meeting between the
president and Mrs. Mckinley for the
first time after the assault The dis
patches report that Mrs. Mckinley
took seat at the bedside and held
the presidents hand. The distn-
guished sufferer looked into the face
of his good wife and said in low
tone: We must bear up it will be
better for us both With tears
streaming down her cheeks Mrs Me-
Knley nodded assent.
There is a depth of pathos in this
little incident that must appeal force
fully to those who appreciate the
strength of the ties that bind good
husband to a good wife.
"There may be some people who
have no idea of the thoughts that
were passing through the minds Of
this couple at that moment There
are, however, many others who can
imagine what these thoughts were.
There, on the bed of pain, lay the
strong, powerful man. BY his side
sat the frail woman. whose physical
weakness has been for so many years
ahe su iect of this husbands tender
soliciLude. In an humble way they
6egan life together. Two little graves
had for them a common interest In

stood together participating equally
in the joys and sharing equally in the
SORROWS of life. The wife had shared
ia the great honors that had come to
aser husband, and now. when the very
asimmit of political ambition had been
reached and political honors had be-

Frank Proctor Shot.

A telegram to the sheriff, from
Fairbanks, Cochise county, dated
yesterday, states that man was
found there shot, supposed to be a
case Of attempted suicide, and that
the man will surely die. Papers
were found in possession of the
wounded man addressed to Frank
Proctor and also a poll tax receipt
signed by Sheriff Thompson
These facts leave little room to
doubt that the victim is Frank
Proctor, late partner Of Knight
Parker in the blacksmith and
wagon making business, that was
destroyed by the recent fire. Proc
tor left here short time ago, for
the southern part of the territory,
to find employment or business
location, and gave it out that he
was going to Naco. The distress.
ing news was communicated to
Mrs. Proctor last night, and she
started al once in buggy for Fort
Thomas, where she expected to
catch the train for Bowie and con-
tinue the journey to Fairbanks

Moore met his man and placed
him under arrest. Barton" said he
had some friends down at the cor

he was taken to Tombstone.
Moore consented and the two start
ed to go down to where his friends
were. AT this juncture man
