ago he was a member of the section
gang on the Santa Fe Railroad earn
ing only 65 cents a day with his spade
He was considered by the foreman one
of the best hands in the gang, and en-
tirely trustworthy, though he was by
no means a favorite with the other
hands, because he took care of his
earnings and engaged in no pastimes
of questionable propriety. In the sec
ton house at night, and when prevent
ed by the weather from werk on the
roadbed, he spent his leisure In study
and reading, and was utilized by the
unambitious laborers as kind of bu-
reau of useful information. He was
also a sort of supreme court, to whom
all questions debated by the section
gang was appealed. BY his reading
and study he fitted himself for a col
iege course.
He worked for the Santa Fe between
Galveston and Brennan for about one
year, during which time the foreman
had never charged him for one hours
lost time. Another thing said of him
is that he never lost or broke an nipple
ment of any kind, and his spade was
not only always in place. but as bright
as dollar and as sharp as it is neces-
sary for a spade to be. At the end of
the years service for the Santa Fe he
had saved enough to pay his expenses
for one year in Baylor University,
which he entered. After graduating
at Baylor, Professor Brooks was a
member OF the faculty until two years
ago, when ne entered Harvard to take
a postgraduate course. Professor
Brooks now ranks easily among the
ripest scholars in America, is a fine
speaker, ana has won distinction as a
lecturer. He speaks very rapidly,
enunciates very distinctly, and gestic-

that he was bringing with him one of

Potato Pulp CelIuloid.

1t is not many years since the
threatened ivory famine produced that
remarkable imitation known as cellu-
loid, which has been successfully en-
ployed for a thousand uses. Now the
imitation has itself been initiated by
a curious preparation of potato pulp.
The inventor is Dutchman, anL he
treats the waste pulp. itself a resiode
from the manufacture of potato flour,
with a solution OF acid and glycerine.
The resulting compound takes a plas-
tic form, and is dried and ground to
powder. This powder is nodded into
blocks with the aid OF water. Wy
