Richest British Woman.

1t will probably surprise most peo-
pie to learn that at the present mo-
ment the wealthiest British woman liv-
ing is a Welshwoman; more, that she
is single. Miss Emily Charlotte Tai
bot was one of the three children of
Mr.. Christopher Talbot, popular M.
P. of the mid-Victorian era. The only
son died in early youth and Miss Tai
bots sister, somewhat younger than
herself, became the wife, just forty
years ago, of Mr.. Fletcher of Saltoun.
Miss Talbot remained at home, keep
ing house for her father at beautiful
Margam abbey, Glamorganshire, and
on his death, which took place some
sixteen years ago, his devoted elder
daughter found herself left his sole ex-
ecutrix and owner of all the Talbot
real estate, valued at about a million
and half sterling, as also of rever-
sionary interest in a huge trust fund
in consols.-Tit-Bits.

ONE-ARMED CHAIR IN USE.
Sort of First Cousins to the Three
Legged Table.


Three-legged tables have long been
in use in restaurants where economy
of space is an object. The three-leg-
ged table is set with the end support
ed by two legs against the wall, while
the end supported by single leg is
on the aisle.
With but single leg there it is
much easier for a man sitting at the
aisle end of such table to get his
legs under it when he sits down and
his legs out from under the table
when he gets up.
Now, to economic space and for
the greater convenience of patrons,
they have in lunch rooms one-armed
chairs, these being used in places
where the customer walks up to a
counter and selects his food and then
carries it to a chair in which he sits
to eat, resting his food meanwhile on
the fiat top of the chairs right arm,
which is broadened out for this use
like the broad f1at-topped right arm
of a writing chair.
With two arms, as originally built,
the lunch room table chair took up
more room, and, comfortable as it
might he when one was settled, it
was rather harder to get into. A man
carrying a plate of crullers in one
hand and cup of coffee in the other
had to exercise a little care in getting
into his chair without upsetting one
or splitting the other. But with the
one-armed chair there is osuch diff
ficulty.
On this chair the left arm is cut
away entirely, and so the chairs can
be set closer together. The user of
such chair can get into it more con-
veniently and then slide comfortably
over to the arm side, to the fat-topped
remaining arm, on which he places his
viands.

PLANT YIELDS LINEN FIBER.
Weed That Grows in Brazil Produces
Goods of Various Grades.

1OOQS OF various GFdOSSs
A new plant known as "canhamo
braziliensis perind" or brazilian lin
en- and named for it's discoverer, DR..
Victoria De Perrin, is now being de-
veloped under the patronage of the
Brazilian government upon several ex-
perimental plantations, and has
reached a point where it is predicted
that it's influence must be felt at once
in the fabric world of commerce and
industry.
The plant is virtually weed, grow
ing from twelve to eighteen feet high
in four or five months and resembles
the hemp.
Among the claims for it are that it
is absolutely hardy, resisting the dry
and rainy seasons alike; that it snot
a prey to insects or mildew; that it
requires no special attention after
planting; that it natures SO rapidly
that three crops a year can be had
upon comparatively waste land and at
small outlay; that the fiber has all
the qualities for high-class use, and
that every portion of the plant can
be used for some industrial purpose.
The fiber runs generally into three
grades, the finest corresponding to the
best linen, the second to coarse linen
and the third to European hemp. The
residue of the plants is composed Of
high-grade cellulos, said to be espe-
cially suitable for the manufacture Of
fine writing paper, the demand for
which will be steady, as at present
all but coarse wrapping paper is i'm
ported to the amount of 100000 a
year.
Present plans contemplate only the
production of the raw fiber for ex-
port, but the ultimate result may be
great manufacturing enterprise
when labor and commercial condi-
tons in Brazil will justify the venture.

MEMPHIS OLD SLAVE MART.
Market for Negroes Once Run in Con-
nection With Livery Stable.

Grim, unsightly, painless, scanned
and crooked throughout its masonry
there stands to-day an old brick build
ing on Adams street, midway between
Main and Second about which clus-
tiers more of history and of change
than can be compressed into song
or story. 1t is situated just on the
east of the alley midway between
Main and Second streets, and is used
as a shelter for the c$y prisoners
who are at work on the rock pile.
If you will take the trouble to step
to the westward side of this old build
ing, where it faces the alley, and
glance up along it's second story you
may still discern the inscription:
Negro mart and livery stable" or as
much of it as time has not penciled
out. The last letter of the word
mart" and the last letter Of the
word stable are gone. The others
are dimmed with age and might pass
unnoticed unless you look a second
time.
Time was, nearly half a century
ago, when this was a famous negro
market. 1t was presided over in its
time by no less man than Gen. For
rest himself Thousands of negroes
were bought and sold within it's walls,
and hundreds of thousands of dollars
passed there from buyer to vender.
One old, gray-headed negro told the
writer a few days ago:
''I'se seen many bushe1 O. money
piled up on the upstailS fo-gold
money, sab, in de ole days. Yes, sab,
l members Gin1 Forrest, an he was
debeatenes' man I evan seen. Dey

Decay of Famous Mexican Pyramid.

The residents of Cholula, in the
State of Puebla, are alarmed over the
cracking of the historic pyramid of
Cholula and the impending destruction
of the temple. The crack in the pyra-
mid extends a long distance and Is
twenty centimeters wide.
The weakening of the pyramid is
due to the decay of its base, caused
partly by the taking away of earth
from the supports with which to make
adobes. The chaplain has invoked d.
vine protection. Prof. Leopold Batres,
inspector general of archaeological
monuments, has gone to Cholula to
make an examination of the premises.
