Leather Lasts on,y IS Years.

A very striking instance or the de-
terioration of leather produced under
conditions demanding quicker tanning
by use of various chemicals. thus de-
creasing the durability of the mate
rial, is afforded by the fact that the
British Museum expends 100000 a
year in rebinding books in leather.
Modern leather is widely different
from the material produced by what
is now regarded rs an ehete process,
it's life being limited to is years. In
the search for cheaper and quicker
processes of making leather, large
quantities of sulphuric acid are used,
and this chemical in combination with
others, causes the material to decom-
pose rapidly in the course of few
years.-Stray Stories.

A WHITE HOUSE RECEPTION
Indian Names Make Work for the
Master of CArer-onies


Chief Joseph. the famous Nez Perce
warrior, and several members of his
band who fought against Gen. Miles
years ago, attired in gaudy blankets.
adorned with feathers and streaked
with war paint, were the center OF at
traction at a recent reception to the
army and navy at the White House.
One night, when the chiefs name was
called by Col. Bingham, the master of
ceremonies. he grasped the hand OF
the great white father with a grin
that made Mr.. Roosevelt vince and
said, How" in basso that made
everybody in the vicinity jump. Col
Bingham nearly dislocated his jaw In
introducing Chief Josephs followers.
One of them Is named Ahlokat and an
other answers to the name of Poyapy
ontaliki. Col Bingham made a brave
attempt at introducing the latter. but
the Indian evidently didn't recognize
his name as Col. Bingham pronounced
it, for he didn't make move to grasp
the Presidents hand until the inter
prefer poked him in the ribs.

Cannot Use His Own Cars.

P. A. B. Widener, the Philadelphia
traction magnate, controls thousands
of miles of steel railroad in America,
but he cannot ride in a trolley car
without sul.ering from an exact imi-
tation of seasickness. Once he made
desperate effort to overcome this
weakness. Accompanied by w. L. Ell
kins, his partner, he went for a
twelve-mile ride and stuck at it until
the trip was ended. By that time he
was in state Of complete collapse.
He came back on the steam railroad
and has not ventured on trolley car
since.

from authoritative sources that Will

parliamentary candidate for London

Owner of Dred Scot Dead.

Mrs. Irene Sanford Chaffee is de.i6,
at Springfield, Mass, aged SS. Mrs.
Chaffee, who came of leading Vir-
ginia family, once owned the famous
slave Dred Scot. 1t was in a case
involving his liberty that the United
States supreme court decided that a
negro, free or slave, had no rights
before the law. Mrs. Chaffee, though
not actually an abolItionist, was al
ways in sympathy with the colored
man. Hef ownership of Scot was an
accident and after the decision named
had been rendered she freed the man.
