1t was not a success, out some of the
features of the Saint machine appear
in the perfected machine of today.
Bartholemy Thimonnier patented in
France in 1850 the first sewing ma
chine put to practical use. Eighty Of
his machines were in use for sewing
army clothing in 1841, when a mob
destroyed them because convinced
they would drive seamstresses out OF
employment. Thimonnier built new
and better machines, but all his work
was again destroyed by angry arti-
sans in 1o48.
John J. Greenough took out the
first patent for sewing machine Is
sued in the United States in 1912. It
was intended to sew leather, but was
of no practical use.
Walter Hunt, of New York, built a
sewing machine in 1884, but failed to
protect it by patent. After Howe's
machine appeared Hunt declared 1t
embodied his ideas of his machine OF
1884, but he was unable to establish
his claim.
A small army of inventors appeared
after Howe's patent had proved sue
cessful. and their genius was devoted
to perfecting every part of the ma.
chine. How we'll they succeeded is
shown in the $500 patents for sew
ing machines and attachments issued
by the United States since 1850 and in
the fact that the American sewing ma.
chine leads all others in every coun-
try, in the world.-Exchange.

HOBSON CAUSES TALK
HE HAS LONG OvER-STAYEO HIS
LEAVE
Supposition Is That He Has the SYM
pathy Of Roosevelt in Not
Obeying Orders.

Washington, Nov. 14.-1n connec-
tion with reference made by various
officials of the navy department to the
lack of officers in the navy, it is
pointed out as a remarkable fact that
Naval Constructor Richard Pearson
Hobson has overstayed his last leave
of absence by over two months With
out having been called to account by
the proper officials.
This condition of offairs is said to
be the result of the attitude OF the
president, who is said to sympathize
with Hobsons desire to be placed on
the retired list, in order that he may
enter politics in Alabama. 1t is thought
that hobson would not so long over
stay his leave were he not sure that
no adverse action on the part of the
navy department officials would be
forthcoming. 1t is known that no Of
fetal order extending his leave has
been made.
At the expiration of the last leave
of absence granted him, he was order
ed to report for duty at Pensacola,
and the fact that he did not do so
is taken to mean that there is some
sort of an understanding between
him and Secretary Moody.

Millions in Sewing Machines

More than $2O,O0O,OOO is invested in
the United States, and more than $21-
100000 worth of machines is turned
out every year. Yet the sewing ma
chine indstry is of comparatively re:
cent growth.
The technical beginning Of the in
dustry in this country was September
10. 1846, when Elias Howe, jr., obtain.
ed patent for what grew into the
first really practical sewing machine.
Only three of the first Howe machines
were made, however and one of these
was deposited in the patent office in
Washington as model. It was not
until after 1850 that factory for the
making of sewing machines was built,
so the enormous business of today
has grown up in short half century.
While Howe's invention marked the
beginning of a successful industry, he
was by no means the pioneer in efforts
to substitute mechanical for hand
sewing. AS far back as 1910 Thomas
Aslop patented in England a ma
chine for embroidering. Another ma
chine for embroidering in a loom was
invented by John Duncan in 1904, and
twenty five years later another Eng
lishman, named Heilman, patented
still another embroidering machine.
The first recorded attempt at me-
chanical sewing was the invention of
Thomas Saint who took out pat
ent in England in 100 for a machine
which executed the old crotchet stitch.

The matter was investigated by all
parties and it was Mr.. Chester who ar
rived at a solution which was satisfac-
tory to himself alone.
"on the evening you mention" he
said. Il was in the old homestead in
Augusta. Me-. and wishing very much
that was back to my own room in
this house among my books. The
folks were going TO some entertain

early"
How do you account for it2" asked
Mrs. Perkins. incredulously.
"oh. expect my astral body was on
on some scheme, evolved in my
dream" said Mr.. Chester with appar-
ent sincerity. Il had been longing to
come beck and my spirit took adyant-
age of my body and came here on an
independent jaunt"
But to the pratical minds of the
Perkins the explanation was worse
than the mystery. They gave Mr.,
Chester notice to vacate, their only
reason being that they did not keep a
lodging-house for spooks.

But Mrs. Perkins was crying over the

she supposed everybody would know

The next morning there was utter
silence in Mr. Chester's room, and af-
Ter waiting a reasonable time Mrs
Perkins concluded her lodger had gone

with his own key No evidence of his
return was present His satchel was
not in the room. nor had the bed been
disturbed But some one mad entered

uncomfortable, when on the evening
that ended his vacation. Mr.. Chester
