was understandable, said in thunder
tones, that If his party ever licensed
the sale of that kind of corn he would
never vote it's ticket again, and then he
quoted Scripture. about no drunkard
entering the kingdom of God; and as o.
final crusher, he asked Boggs what
would become of all the poor dumb
brutes, IL we licensed the sale of that
kind of cornP Then ne wept,
Poor Boggs, discouraged, footsore and
ped the petition on the table, and sank
half fainting into chair as he exclaim-
ed:
Personal liberty is myth"
The lawyer, moved by sympathy, as
lawyers always are, put on his best
thinking-cap. In moment his --coun-
tenance beamed with joy; he slapped
Boggs good-naturedly on the back and
said: Brighten up. old boy, I've got
it,"
"Got what?" said Boggs.
SCOT an idea," replied the lawyer.
"a capital idea too; one that let's you
out slick and clean, saves your farm,
and, above all, preserves your personal
liberty. You proceed at once to draw
that corn to the distillery. have it made
into red whiskey-and then circulate
your petition for a license to sell whis-
key, aud they will all sign it, and thus
the dumb brutes will be protected, per-
sonal liberty perpetuated, and. besides
all that, such course will not hurt the
party. You see it all depends upon
whether the corn is sold in solid or
liquid state.

Got What lie Deserved

Ed Scarborough, who made such a reputation as an officer and bad man at Deming and Silver City some years ago, is now an officer at Douglas. The papers report that recently a trick bicycle rider was doing some stunts at Douglas, when Scarborough inter- fered and took few shots at the wheel. Fearing that shot might puncture the tire of the wheel, the bicycle man concluded to retaliate. He circled around and put on full steam, and the first thing that Bad Man knew, the wheel hit him amid ships and bowled him over. Before Scarborough realized what had hap. pened the bicycle man had taken his gun away from him, and then pro. ceeded to kick Scarborough until he had enough. The justice of the peace iiaed Scarborough and turned the bicycle man loose. If Scarborough had had few such experiences when he first started out to be bad officer it would have been a great benefit tt him.-Lordsburg Liberal.

The sounding was 5155 fathoms, or 30,930 feet.

THE LUCKY TURQUOISE.

Amulets are much in favor at the
present moment, and the wearers of
them are by no means only of the fen1i-
nine community. They are worn in all
manner of quaint designs. and the
vendors are just now having a busy
time. Each precious stone is supposed
to contain some property peculiar to it
self. 1t seems hardly credible that peo-
pie of common sense should believe in
such things, but true it is that amulets
are at present much in vogue, and
apart from their superstitions, they are
one of the daintiest presents magma
Bile. The emerald is credited with a
host of good influences, the chrysolite is
a cure for insomnia, the onyx produce
peaceful existence. But the luckies
amulet of all is that containing a tur-
quoise, whether by reason of its true
blue color or not it is hard to say.
There is an old proverb which states
that "'he who possesses a turquoise will
never lack a friend" Certainly from
time immemoriaI the turquoise has
never ceased to be regarded as a lucky
stone.

work out problem. When in Europe
Miss Pendleton had previously visited
and taken notes of various famous dye
ing establishments in France. There
she began to work out her problem in
the former hennery near Washington.
That is where she was. What she
was doing appears in the shape of
remarkable exhibit in the Building of
Varied Industries at the St. Louis fair.
1t is contained in a large glass case
that at once attracts the eye by the
lustrous appearance of the skeins of
colored yarn that are inside of it. The
wooden skeins have such a shine upon
them that paSsersby stop to ask wheth-
er they are wool or silk. In that ques-
ton lies the heart of one discovery
Miss Pendleton believes she has made
in connection with the dyeing of wool
en- goods.
The thing Miss PendIeton sought to
do when she shut herself up in her
laboratory outside of Washington was
to rediscover the Gobelin dyes, those
unfading colors which make the old
French tapestries worth their weight
in gold. If not that, then the expert
menter hoped at least to find the secret
of making other pure dyes, also unfad-
ing. To her unspeakabie delight, she
not only achieved what she believes to

CHARLOTTE PENDLEToN.

be the rediscovery of the Gobelfn dyes.
but made on her own account find
which, if it turns out as she expects,
will revolutiOnize the art of dyeing
woods. This is a process applicable to
all colors whereby wool may be made
to look like silk. This, statement re-
calls the dictum of the oriental philoso-
pliers that all matter is different forms
of one original substance.
BY means of Miss Pendletons prepa-
ration wooden rugs and carpets may be
made silky in appearance She has
paid special attention to the dyeing of
rugs. Thus with the fast colors of the
Gobelin tapestries and of the orient,
and also the process for giving to wool
a luster like that of silk, American rug
weaving may surpass thatgof any other
country.
These two priceless discoveries in
one appear to have been made by Char
lotte Pendleton. She understands fully
the Importance of her two finds and
guards the secrets of them even as
Giles and Jean Gobelin guarded theirs

till death put the seal of apparently
eternal silence upon it. But an Amer
lean woman has broken the seal.
The application Of Miss -Pendleton'1
inventions to wall tapestries will give
an impetus to the making of these}
Carpets, rugs, curtains and wall hang,
ings will appear as if made of pure SILK
and at the same time the wooden thread
of which they are really made will out
wear any silk. American homes can be
made very beautiful.
Most significant of all, perhaps, in
connection with this matter is the fact
that Miss Pendleton's discoveries have
been made in the true ancient field of
woman's work, that of dyeing and
making textile fabrics. Now women
can make art rugs at home of the new
silkenized wooden yarn. and cloth which
a woman's wit has given them.

THE VICTIM OF NERVES.

Eleonora Duse, the famous Italian ac-
tress, is peculiarly sensitive and highly
strung. When she is not playing or re-
hearsing she spends her time in per-
feet rest and lives in almost nunlike Sc
cIusion. She has a companion who ar
ranges her journeys and engages rooms
for her at hotels. This woman sees
that Buses apartments are at the back
of the hotel and, if possible, overlook
ing a garden, for she cannot bear street
sounds and sights. The furnishing of
her room is important. Everything
must be scrupulously clean, severe and
quiet, for her highly wrought sensibili-
ties cannot tolerate the distraction of
pictures and ornaments.

WEEPING AT. A WEDDING.

A Chinese marriage is a solemn cere-
mony-no talk, no levity and much cry
ing feast is spread upon a table, to
which the blushing bride is led by five
of her friends. They are seated at the
table, but no one eats. Deep silence
prevails. When finally the mother starts
crying the maids follow, and the bride
joins in the chorus. Then all the brides
maids leave the table, and the discon-,
solate mother takes seat beside the
chair of state where the bride sits. The
bridegroom now enters with four of his
men friends, who carry the bride round
the room, while the guests throw ricel
over the happy pair.
