center of the buffalo industry" The price on the market was S5 ton. Two round trips week was the limit, but through one entire summer and fall young Hemenway and his brother Will loaded the wagon and hauled the buffalo bones to market. They realized in this way between S6 and 10 week.
 In 1880 Hemenway returned to Boonville and went to work in a to- bacco factory. Later he engaged in the livery business at RockpOrt and to augment his income became also sewing machine agent.
 While selling sewing machines and making other odd trades the opportuni- ty was given to him of reading la W and he entered the office of John l.. Taylor, a prominent Democratic law yer, whose partner he subsequently became. Here one day he was waited upon by a Republican politician and asked to accept the nomina ton for dis trlct prosecutor. There did not seem to be any chance for his election, the district being strongly Democratic. MT. Hemenway made an active canvass of the distrisct, and 10 the surprise of everyone was elected In those days a man could be chosen prosecutor before being admitted to the bar and 1t was Hemcnway's fortune to be one of those men When the first case came up there were several good lawyers op- posed to him and the presiding judge suggested that Hemenway secure as- sistance. He declined, wishing to re- flute one of the arguments made against him during his canvass-that he was not competent to i'll the place. He won his case and thereby greatly enhanced his reputation.
 In 1s94 he entered Congress, to which he has been elected ever since. He at once took prominent place in House affairs. becoming the head of the most important committee in the government-the National Committee on Appropriations.

ONCE NEwseoY AND BooTsLACK
James A. Hemenway, of Indiana, Is
 Now a United States Senator.

Few men in the public life of the nation rose to prominence and success under such dlscouragIng conditions as Representative James 4. Hemenway, who succeeds Vice President Fair banks in the United States Senate. His early life was a continual struggle against poverty and the Limitations It imposed, but he rose superior to every difficulty, winning success by persist ent effort and close and intelligent ap- plication.
 Mir. Hemenway, whose ancestry dates back to colonial days, was born on his fathers farm near Boonville. Ind, In 1860. He attended school at Boonville making slow progress. how ever owing to the fact that his studies were interrupted by the necessity of attending to duties at home.

TRICKS TO GET DEER.
Sometimes Stop When You Call, and
 Red Attracts Them.

There are some tricks In woods hunting that are common property For instance, most hunters who pot cartridges while the covey are sitting on a pine or spruce tree know that the lowest bird should be shot first. If this is done, nearly all of the coYey will sit still to be butchered, but If the highest bird be shot the survivors will fly instantly. They are disturbed not only by the noise of the dead bird coming down through the branches, but they see 1t fall and take warning.
 Not many hunters know, however, that a deer under full headway, speed ing down a runway as if legion of hounds were after 1t, will often stop still and instantly if it hears a shrill whistle. The whistle is the deer's sig nal of warning, of challenge, and of so- ciability, and 1t always attracts atten- ton from them.
 Similarly a running deer will often stop if 1t hears an unusual, but not ter rifying, noise. A half-breed Chippewa of the Flambeau Reservation named Sam Pogon asserts that deer under stand the meaning of the English word Stop and always obey it.
 Whether this is true or not and 1t isn't, Sam says always says Stop" in clear, mild tone instead of using the whistle, and his deer generally stop. He does a good deal of guiding. and 1t gives his patron rather an eerie feeling to lie hidden by a runway with him and hear him give his brief com mand.
 The brown deer of the woods is as much attracted by red handkerchief or any other bit of scarlet cloth as is the antelope. Red sometimes angers animals and sometimes arouses their curiosity, but 1t never terrfies them.
 That Is one of the reasons why most Indian hunters wear red cloth bound around their foreheads: the other req son is that 1t Is distinguishing mark of a human being and brother Indians or amateurs are less apt to mistake them for game and pot them as they move slowly through the trees. It Is a fact not commonly within the knowledge of sportsmen that a wounded deer, shot while speeding by stand, will always come back to that stand if 1t has strength enough. More deer are finally bagged by men, who simply inspect the bloodmarks and sit down and wait than by men who take up the blood trail.

BUILD AND FURNISH HOMES.
This Firm Constructs Residences and
 Completely Equip Them.

Ashort time ago, a New York firm the Worlds Work. It agreed to de sign and build a house; to make and arrange the furniture; to decorate the house and to supply 1t with napery and bed linen, glassware, china and kitch- en utensils. They carried out the con tract They even engaged servants. Dinner was ready to be served when the owner first stepped into the com pleted house.
 The members of the firm call them selves contracting designers" They plan, build, and furnish houses to suit the character of and tastes of the per sons that are to occupy them.
 The house mentioned had been start ed by an architect and the usual sue cession of decora tors, furnishers and other purveyors were to follow. But the owner, who was a semi-invalid, turned the whole contract over to this firm. Though plans. drawings, and samples were shown to the owner, the whole work was completed without his supervision, for he was absent. The contract amounted to about $e0,000 and the result was entirely satisfac- tory. Such details as harmonizing the coloring of the china with the tone of the dining room, and attending to the positions and the color of the pictures, were carefully worked out. The cost of this undertaking exactly matched the sum set aside for 1t.
 The same firm moved a bank into temporary quarters over Sunday, built new building, fitted it with vaults, furniture and furnishings of every kind, even to inkstands and penracks, and moved back the books, records and other paraphernalia-again over Sun day-exactly thirty days later. The total cost of this contract was S13.OOO. Here is new profession of great pos abilities.

Boy Weavers Of Persia.

Boys from to l2 years old do a great part of the carpet and rug weay ing in Persia. They are very deft. Having been shown the design and col bring of the carpet they are to work the boys rely on their memories for the rest of the task. IL Is very seldom that you will see on any of the looms A pattern set before the workers The foreman of a loom Is frequently boy of from F to l4. He walks up and down behind the workers calllng out in a sing-song manner the number of stitches and the colors of the threads to be used. He seems to have the de sign imprinted in his mind copy of a famous carpet now at the South Kensington Museum Is being made. The design and colorlng are unique, but the boys who are working on the copy are doing it without the design before them and at the rate of from 30 to 35 stitches a minute. Nothing but hand work is employed in the manu- facture of Persian carpets and rugs. and none but natural or vegetable dyes are used. This accounts for the su- perior quality of the Persian products. The secret of the beautiful dark blue dyes used in the older days has been
