Sailors live at the Sailor s Home for
$3.50 per week and, when they sign

Bray asked one man in my hearing
how much advance he was taking, and
he answered. "0nly half a month. -
Bray told him it is a customary thing
to get one month s advance and go to
the Red Front store and get the bal
ance in clothing, which would be bet

I was sitting on a trunk in the door
of the Red Front on the 10Th of Jan
uary, when Police Officer Larsen came
to Rosenberg and Rosenburg told Lar
sen that he had no business to arrest
those deserters from the Englehorn
would have had to ship other men and
each man Is worth 50 to me. Now,
as everyone knows, three men ran
away from the Englehorn and the cap
tain offered a reward for their return.
Police Officer Larsen got the men but
Rosenberg did not want that kind of
work, for | heard him tell Larsen the
following: 81 got your job for You
and this is the way you pay me back.
What l want you to do is to lock up

The men were locked up as Rosenberg
wished and brought out of the station /.
and placed on the Phelps. Friday,

easily handled he was let 90 and the
other taken back and locked up so
that he would be on hand when the

On top of this plaster a coating of glue is again put and a fluffy tissue pasted on, which Is again covered with glue. The body at this stage is of a yellowish color and in touch and ap- pearance resembles almost exactly a fresh human carcass.
 The head is next placed in position and covered with glue and tissue in the same way as the body. The eye holes are painted dark brown inside and covered with piece or two of the same material with smal slit In the middle, which gives a marvel ously good representation of the sunk en, dried out eyes of the real mum | my.
 A few hairs are pasted on top of the head, the teeth are made out of small bits of horn, and the head and neck, with the exception of the face, are wrapped with several layers of thin, ragged cotton, held together by bands. The whole body is treated like wise leaving such spots as it is de- sirable to show the skin and bones un- derneath.

If there was the Finally, the body is strewn all over with gray dust, or powder, which part ly fills all the holes. If there was the slightest ground for scepticism left before this removes it entirely
 The writer has seen hundreds of mummies, but even on the closest in spection he was not able to discover anything in the artificial product that was not exactly in accordance with all he ever observed in the original num- mics.
 The very shape of the head, the ex- pression of the hollow eyes the shrlv- elled lips, the bits of skin and bone ex- posed; the wrappings and all, are such as exactly to resemble the genuine ar- tiele. Standing in the very workshop, seeing them made, and hearing the makers explanation, it is hard to realize that those weird figures should be limitations.
 If the artists tells you that he has ben working in his line of business for 29 years, that he learned his trade in a regular factory long ago. and that he is able to turn out several mummies day, you will perhaps agree that even your keen eye may have been deceived especially if you will cal- cuIate what this one man alone has done in his line.
 Many more genuine articles issue from the same delft hands, but they are of comparatively minor interest," mer- maids, Alligator Boys and similar remarkable and fabulous creatures are manufactured here as well as h. dian war relics and curios that vii astound thousands hereafter But, as the clever sculptor remarks, the world will be deceived and a man would rather pay 50 cents to see one of the products in a show museum than pay 10 cents to SC it made.-New York Sun.

ovER-sHREwD LAWYERS

Who Were Defeated by Witnesses
 Through Their Own Weapons.
 over-shrewd lawyers often furnish their adversaries with weapons. "Did you see this tree that has been men, tioned by the roadside?' an advocate inquired.
 ''Yes, sir, saw it very plainly"
 ''It was conspicuous, then?"
 The witness seemed puzzled by the new word. He repeated his former as- sertion.
 "What is the difference" sneered the lawyer. "between plain and conspicu- ous?"
 But he was hoist with his own pe- tard. The witness innocently an- swered:
 q can see you plainly, sir, amongst the other lawyers, though you are not a bit conspicuous
 In another instance, a blow directed against the character of witness for cibly recoiled.
 "You were in the company of these people?" he was asked.
 "Of two friends, sir"
 Friends! Two thieves, I suppose you mean"
 ''That may be so" was the dry re- tort; "tney are both lawyers
 The blow that destroys the effect of an adverse examination is occasionally more the result of accident than of conscious effort. In a trial, not long ago, very simple witness was In the box, and after going through his ordeal was ready to retire. One question re- mained:
 ''Now, Mir. --. has not an attempt been made to induce you to tell the court a different story?"
 "A different story to what I have told, sir?''
 "Yes. is it not so?"
 "Yes. sir"
 Upon your oath, demand to know who the persons are who have attempt ed this.''
 Well, sir, you've tried as hard as any of 'em," was the unexpected an- swer.
 It ended the examination Rochester Herald.

MUMM1Es MADE TO ORDER.

A Man Has been in the Business 29
 Years-How the Fakes Are Made.
 Making mummies is the peculiar oc- equation of a man in Los Angeles, Cal. MT Fisher-this is the able craftmans S name-exposes his whole process, from the beginning to the end, without mak- ing the least secrecy about it. He works in a shop on a main street of the city. In the show window are sample mummies; also a sign which reads; Come in and see a mummy made"
 He charges 10 cents admission and does a good business. A writer for the Pacific Monthly inspected the mummy plant and has described the industry. He explains that MT. Fish CTS present frankness is due to the fact that he is going to retire from the mummy trade.
 After having hidden his art for more than quarter of a century," says the visitor, he has chosen to give a practical lesson in it to whoever cares to learn it."
 The whole factory outfit consists of a great rough table and one or two smaller ones, upon which several num- mics are lying in different stages of development.
 The first step taken in the manu- facture is the preparation of a simple plank the vertebral column, which gives stay to head, body, legs and all and to the end of which are nailed one or two short boards representing the feet.
 Then a bag of sacking, correspond ing in form to the shape of the body, is placed around the plank and stuffed with excelsior. The ribs are reproduced by means of bamboo straps. The arms and fingers consists of sev- eral big and some small sticks.
 All these things are attached to the outside of the bag. The rough body thus produced is covered with a thin coat of plaster to the extent of the chest and abdomen, or wherever else any part of the body is intended to show.

GREATER BOSTON.

Among the cities, if we except New York; I know of none that clearly out ranks Boston. Tn valuation it stands almost at the top, in population norni- nally fifth; but the political Boston Is surrounded by dozens of cities and towns which to all intents and purposes are as much parts of the real Boston as the residential districts of St. Louis and Chicago are parts of those cities. Within fifty miles of the State House there are twenty-five cities containing more than 25,O0O inhabitants each. Chicago has only three such tributary suburbs and St. Louis only one. This great outlying population, some of it separated from the city proper merely by a bridge or an artificial boundary line, must be reckoned in as part of the capital It contributes to it prosperity. for without 1t Boston would not be the great market it is, selling $1, ,000. .000. 900 worth of goods in year or 70 per cent of all the goods sold in Massachusetts. But, if the suburban population stimu- lates business, 1t adds nothig directly to the revenues of the city. On the contrary, it includes many persons who should pay taxes in the city. but do not, preferring the less rigorous f1nan- cial climate of places like Wellesley and Nahant; while, on the othter hand, municipal expenditures are greatly in- creased by the proplnquity of this sur rounding population. For example, about three in eight of all the persons arrested in Boston last year were non- residents. Clearly the problems of government with us are complicated by conditions which do not exist in Chicago and St. Louis.-New England Magazine.
