MOTHER OF PEARL.
The Industry OF InlRSinE IL In Pr
cfouS Woods

The Industry OF InIaSinE IL In Pre-
ciouS Woods.
The sole curiosity for sightseers in
the city OF Hanoi, town OF the French
Tonquin, is the industry Of inlaying
mother of pearl in precious woods. In
fact, one street, called the Street OF the
Inlayers. is given up TO the trade The
workmen are genuine artists. combin-
ing artistic perception with great man
ual skill Furnished with rude tools.
but with great patience and skill. these
workmen produce articles Of great
beauty. They have applied the princi-
pie OF division Of labor. or SPECIALIZE
ton, to their work. The cabinet MAX
ers first put together the various parts
OF the materials to be incrusted. The
joining is done without the aid of nails
and with a nice system OF dovetailing
and use Of paste. of which lacquer is
the base. From this cabinet maker the
wood passes into the hands of the de-
signer, who makes sketches for its or
namentatiOn on rice paper.
These designs are transferred TO the
wood by the inlayer, whose duty if is
10 choose the pearl that will best serve
to bring out the beauty of the design.
The mother Of pearl is obtained from
large species of shellfish, called casQue.
caught chiefly upon the shores Of the
island OF POulocondar.
The inlayer cuts the pieces of pearl
into little bits and chooses the combi-
nation Of cOlors which will make the
contrast necessary for the artistic sue
cess of his work. The iridescence is
heightened by the use of pearl dust
furnished by kind Of musseI taken
from the brooks of that region. When
the bits of mosaic are chosen the in
layer tries TO give them the form of the
design chosen and disposes them as q
mosaic in the wood. The crude morsel
Is made translucent by pumice stone.
The pearl is then fixed in a wise. and
the labor of patience begins. Kneeling
before the wise, he shapes the pieces
with file no larger than an ordinary
color crayon. When the pearl is shaped
IL IS necessary to trench IL in the wood.
This Is ordinarily done by children
fourteen or fifteen years old. The bits
OF pearl are then set in the grooves
and hNed with paste. The whole is
gently heated TO melt the paste and so
nll the interstices. The design is then
poIlshed, vanished and given the fin.
ishing touches. The work has been
counterfeited, but never successfully

Ichthyosaurus is a name much lest

THE HARo.rlmes SOCIAL.
A Most Successful Affair Largely A..
tended.-Good Prouran.

The ladies of the Evangelical
Church Aid Society have reason
Ia feel proud of the success of the
hard times social given in Bickncr's
hall Monday evening. The large
hall MAS crowded with a merry and
happy lhrong who not only enjoyed
a sulcndid feast OF baked beans,
pumpkin pie and all the accompa-
nimems. but a feast of entertain
ment, all of which was most cred
liable. An amusing feature was the
fining system. For wearing white
collar, having shoes shined or any
jewelry on or about your person, il
discovered, cost from won sent to
ten sents,' and the matronly lady
who acted as Judge was inexorable
and YOU had to shell ont il you were
guilty and no excuses went. The
literary program was excellent. The
singing was good and the spoke
pieces" many of them. were of high
merit. Miss Della Bradley. Of Ar
Dor Lodge. was especially good and
displayed talent as an elocutionist
of more than ordinary merit. Miss
Josephine Brach. of Arbor Lodge,
was also most entertaining. as well
as Miss Shepard, OF this city, Mrs,
G.. NJ. Hall made decided hit and
created much amusement In her
character sketches. which were ex-
cellent. In fact the entire program
was well rendered and all who par
ticipated acquitted themselves most
satisfactorily. The NJ. w. A. band,
dressed in haymaker costumes, was
present and enlivened the event
with some of their choicest selec-

day is positive he shot both bolts.
On returning to the Office in the
evening the door was unlocked.
Mr.. King thought this was rather
strange, but attributed it. to the
carelessness of some other member
or employe of the firm, who might
have been there after he had left.
After remaining awhile in the office
he left for the night, again making
sure that the door was double
locked.
When Ed. s. Stockton. of the
firm opened up the next morning he
found the key bolt shot back. but
the spring lock was secure. 1t was
evident that the burglar. having
gained access to the office, was
ready to begin operations on the
safe when Mr.. Kings approach
frightened him away. In the sec
ond attempt he was seemingly
scared off before getting the door
open.
Nothing in the place was dis
turbed and there were no indica4
tions of any attempt to crack the
safe. The marauder was evidently
provided with skeleton keys. and
other visits of a similar character
may be expected by our business
men, as there is no night watchman
to afford protection from such as
saults.
