situated at Lyons, France. Mr.. Greeves
has been making and selling leather all
his life and his father was a tanning ex-
pert. Said he:
1.-THE leather business is rapidly chang

every thing was done by individuals or

but the Americans were first to grasp the
Yea of the big tannery and the big fac
tory. They had plenty Of hides and also
the he.nlock forests which furnish the
bark. so that they could produce leather
in quantity at cheap rate. Their labor
however, was poor. and the first leather
sent to Liverpool was SO ugly and stiff
that the English would not have it. Now
leather OF that quality, better finished
is shipped over in vast quantities 1t fur

Later on continued Mr.. Greeves. the
Americans invented machinery to finisf

of Rebecca J. Taylor, a clerk in the,

The other night, Mark Twain talked
more freely than ever. He told one sto-
ry after another of his experiences in
Hannibal during his younger days. The
original Huckleberry Finn, he said,
was Tom Blankenship. Blankenship
was familiar character about Hanni-
bal during the boyhood days Of the hui
morist. His sister, Becky Blankenship
now lives in Hannibal. Tom Sawyer
he said, was composite character
Sometimes it was Will Bowen, Joh1

that various tricks Of the character
were mostly his. Mrs. Frazier, now

Twain. was Becky Thatcher in "Tom

When asked If he would write any
more books the humorist drawled in
his characteristic manner: t'Well, I

stances. | am too lazy to write any

HumOrtst ON His Recent Return Triu
From Home Of His Boyhood Over
come by Emotion In Attempting to
u Speak at Paris, Mo..-E1periences o,
Younger Days.
Standing on the platform Of the rear
of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
passenger train, Mark Twain, who has
recently been in Hannibal, Mo-, spend.
ing few days, took his farewell look
at the city, the home of his boyhood,
and sped on his way to Columbia at II
o'clock the other morning to attend the
commencement exercises Of the state
university, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. His parting was sad one.
To the large crowd which had collect
ed at the station to bid him goodby
and to wish him godspeed on his jour
3ney homeward the humorist waved his
hand in response to the cheers which
went up for him.
After being loyalty entertained dur
ing his stay, Mark Twain has learned
to think more Of Hannibal and its peo-
pie than ever, and 1t was with a heavy
heart that he departed to return no
more. The usual pleasant smiles which
had leisurely played over his face We're
absent. In their place tears trickled
down his cheeks. Such was the Inn
pressiye parting with the humorist
whom all Hannibal idolized during the
past few days. 4, $.s
The trip Of Mark Twain down to Co
lumbia was one ovation after another.
At every station through which he
passed large crowds were at the depots
to see him. q. Fowkes, general agent
;of the Wabash at Hannibal, Mo-, ac-
icompanied him as far as Moberly. At
5Stoutsyille q large number Of the resi-
dents OF Florida, Mo-. the birthplace Of
the humorist, were at the station, M.
Anderson, son of an old acquaintance

with cane made Of timber from the
house Of his birth. sssSl
AT Paris d crewd OF over q thousand
people were on hand. Arrangements
had been made to hold the train about
ten minutes 50 that Mark Twain might
make d little speech. He had hardly

completely and was unable to continue.
