A Costly Knife.
From LOndcr Answers.


The most valuable knife In the world Is
to be seen in the collection of a famous
firm of cutters in Sheffield. 1t is large
enough to fit the pocket of none but a
giant, and contains seventy-five blades,
which close up like those of an ordinary
knife. Each of the larger blades is elab-
orately engraved, and among the subjects
of these strange pictures are views of Shelf
field College, the city of York, Windsor
Castle, Arundel Castle and a score of other
famous scenes. The hafts are of mother
of pearl. carved with great skill. On one
side the artist has depicted a stag hunt
and on the other a boar hunt. When asked
as to the value Of this knife, the firm re-
Piled: "Well. we calculated it up to 1920,
but that was before 1t was finished, and
then we ceased to estimate what 1t had
cost"

 Reasonable temperature and holiday purchases stimulated retail trade, mak- ing results more satisfactory during the past week than at any recent date. I'm provement was most conspicuous in heavy wearing apparel and kindred lines that have remained dull because of the mild weather. Another encour- aging feature was the resumption of work. at many mills, although there is still much idle machinery, especially in the textile and iron industries. Thou sands of operatives are idle because of the shutdown at number of paper mills. Few labor controversies are in progress, several settlements having been effected, and little Interruption is caused by the disagreement in the building trades.
 Grain fuctuates but little, yet prices are too high to facilitate exports and other surplus nations are shipping free ly.

CLEVELAND OUT OF iH
Former President Announces That
 He Is Not a Candidate.

EECSAUChA AhhOuMCCH
 He Is Not a Candidate.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-In a letter to MT. St. Clair McKelway, editor of the Brooklyn Eagle, former President Gro yer Cleveland has announced upcondi- tionally and irrevocably that he will not be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency in the next Democratic national convention. He concludes thus:
 Tn the midst of 1t all and in full view of every consideratio presented have not for moment been able nor am I now able to open my mind to the thought that fin any circumstances or upon any consideration should ever again become the nominee of my party for the presidency. My determination not to do so is unalterable and concll- sive. This you at least ought to know from me, and I should be glad if the Eagle were made the medium of its conveyance to the public"
 In view of the desire first expressed by the Democratic leaders last summer and since then repeated in many parts of the country that MT. Cleveland per init himself to be considered a candi- date his decision aroused great interest among the political leaders of both par ties. The opinion was freely expressed that its effect would be to increase the chances of Alton B. Parker, judge of the court of appeals, for whom strong preference has been shown in the south and for whom 1t is known Tammany Hall has great admiration.
 MT. Cleveland has carefully abstained from saying definitely heretofore wheth- CT he would allow his name to be pre- scented to the convention. When the question has been put to him he has avoided a direct answer, and on this account the impression has grown that he might become the Democratic stand ard bearer. The chief opposition to him has come from the Bryan wing of the party. Little enthusiasm has been man. ifested in the south, which furnishes the greater part of the Democratic votes in the electoral college, and this fact is believed to have been the deter mining factor in MT. Cleveland's mind.
