HOLIDAY FEAST TO PHANTOMS.

"Bext Money Can Buy" Gold Hunt"
err Promised When He Left.
With q fortune to keep the promise
he made nine years ago to his sister
and three children to the finest feast
money could buy, Henry B. Tannehil
returned to New York to find all were
dead. But he fulfilled his pledge by
giving a Christmas dinner at the Hotel
Marlborough to phantom guests, says
the New York World.
Sadly and alone, the wanderer took a
seat at the table. There were four va
cant chairs about him. In front OF
each a complete dinner was placed,
each course being removed untouched.
His spectre guests were his sister n
her three children. 1t was a CHASTITY
reunion, but the host carried out the
illusion to the end.
Tannehill returned to his native
home to find himself without a living
relative nearer than New Zealand,
where he has a cousin. The wander
lust seized him nine years ago while
he was living with his sister and her
husband, John Vanderveer, at 211 West
6Sth street. His brother -in-law lost his
way in a %snOwstorm and was killed by
a New York, New Haven & Hartford
train.
Soon afterward Tannehill and two
companions started for the Klondyke
to dig gold. When he told his sister
and her children good-by he said:
"Tn be back next Christmas or the
one after that, or a later one, and give
Won folks the finest dinner money can
buy"
They smiled encouragingly and
wished him good luck. After many adj
ventures he reached Nome.

day at the Marlborough. I'm klondyke
I saved some money and took it to
Nome, where things began to come my

all-handsome enough, but in a dark,
heavy, substantial way.
I've been doing too much" he said
to himself impatiently. MY imagina-
ton is running wild. I'm beginning
to fancy things"
He tried to divert his thoughts, but
it was no use. The room weighed on
him. He was not Happy OF comfort
able in it. The more he fought against
1t seemed as though something were
trying to get hold Of him-trying to
make him listen and understand.
Presently he struggled no longer. He
threw himself back in his chair and
closed his eyes.
Il declare, he's asleep!" French
cried. when he and Lambert returned
to the smoke-room, full Of apologies
for their long absence. "He evidently
hasn't missed us, so we may spare
our regrets and explanations. am
afraid our friends old port was too
much for you, Gavin he added, with
a laugh, as Carmichael sat up.
He did not attempt to deny or ex-
plain anything. He let them both sup
pose that he had fallen asleep in their
absence. Only he could no refrain
from looking at Lambert %curiously.
Was it possible that that quiet, self
possessed man could have anything to
do with the emotions he had gone
through in this room? lie %shuddered

saturated with their memories. Lam
bert caught the long, earnest look and
returned it a little c%uriously. If it
had not seemed so unlikely, Car
michael would have said hat there
was something Of e%ntreaty, Of plead
ing, in his eyes; that the look, for n
flashing momrpt, was that Of a soul
in torment.
DO you use this room much?" he
asked, on the spur Of the moment.
Constantly, especially since my wife
has been away. do everything here,

Carmichael made a point of seeing
as much Of Lambert as he could dur
ing the next few days, which was not
difficult, as Lambert seemed to have
taken a fancy to him. But their con-
versation, so far, had never taken an
intimate tone. 1t seemed as If Lam
bert purposely avoided any topic that
could be productive Of strong feeling
or opinion. At the same time, Car
michael fancied more than once that
he saw the same curious look in his
eyes he had seen hat night in the
smoke-room. If he had been quite
sure, he would have spoken but 1t

A night or two later the two men
went to Lambert's house to dinner.
They found their host in excellent
spirits and delighted to see them. This
time the conversation, ever after the
adjournment to the smoke-room, was Of
a light, commonplace character. They
talked of passing events, and did not
touth anything curious or abnormal.
Carmichael said very little. He smoked
and listened to the other two. When
Lambert took French into the draw
ing-roOm presently to show him some
k~nick-knacks he had bee buying for
his wife as Il pleasant surprise on her
return, Carmichael said he would stay
behind and finish his cigar. He was
lazy, he explained, with a laugh. He
did not feel inclined to move.
This was tru enough, but there was
something more behind. Since he had
first entered the smOke-roOm, Car
michael had felt vaguely uneasy and
restless. He could not shake off q
feeling of expectation. He caught
himself looking round questioningly
more than once. Yet there was moth

Tnlly-Ho.

Strange as it may seem, the word
"tally-ho!" in a manner connects the
hunting field with the coach. Tails
hors, pronounced tally-ho-Norman
French for "out Of the thicket"-was
the proper cry when the fox broke
cover. The huntsman and the master
of the fox hounds answered the cry
with long blasts of h horn.
Then, when public coaches began to
run, their horns blew the tally-ho
blasts; further, as luxury progressed,

IN JAPAN.
Island Empire Guarding the Supply

of Raw Product.
The japanese have decided that some.
thing must be done toward conserving
their remaining supplies Of raw mate
rial for papermaking, according to the
New York Evening Post.
In Japan paper is used for almost
everything, from the silver-figured par
titions Of the Buddhist temple to the
rude hut walls Of the laborer from
the silklike vestments of the priest
down to the rain-proof shield Of the
traveller. In fact, the ingenuity Of the
japanese is only matched by the varie-
ties Of uses to which paper may be-
adapted.
The work of the United States gov.
eminent toward determining the mount:
Of paper materials used and the source.
Of future supply ts 8eing followed by
the Japanese, according to n letter
from John II. Snodgrass, United States
consul at Kobe. The imminence Of tie
danger is apparent from the fact that
the Japanese authorities have request
ed the paper mills department of the
Mitsu Bishi Kaisha to take over some,
1900 acres Of the bamboo forests Of
FOrmosa.
1T is known that the bamboo tree.
has been the raw material from which.
the japanese have recently made tho

so 1t Is thought that, by introducing.
the improved methods Of forest cult

100000 bamboos adapted for conversion,

The development Of the new source
of raw material will be of high import
ance and may overcome the necessity
of the island empire looking to foreign
countries for the future supply of paper

For their musical message of light.
For their bird -cllanted burden of song
Praised he ne young earth reborn
For it's freshness and glory and might
And the thoughts of high. solemn delight,
That a fash Of its purity throng,
Praised be the lips of the day
For thelr clarion call to the field,
Where the battle Of life must be fought.
Praised be the fire of the fray
Where the soul is refined and annealed.
And the spirit heroic revealed,
And pure gold from base substances wrought.
Praised be the lips of the night
For their murmurOus message of rest,
For their lullaby, motherly sweet.
Praised be the dreams of delight,
While tired life is asleep in loves nest,
And in harmony tender and blest
Heavens calm and earth's loveliest meet.

While the $1.000, 900 plant is something to
which every patriotic citizen may point
with pride, and while 1t also serves to
greatly build up a town, still the real
bone and sinew of any live city are In
a great number of small industries manu-
featuring a variety of articles. In this
respect Birmingham is well equipped in
the fight for commercial supremacy.
Here can be found a large number Of
concerns with a capital ranging from a
few hundred dollars to the hundreds of
thousands, employing anywhere from a
dozen to 500 people, in addition to the
great iron and steel plants employing
thousands of people.
The articles turned out are varied, being
everything from a paper box to fine
trunks, the list including paints, eye
glasses, sash, doors, blinds, collins.
brooms, mattresses. plows, nails, nuts,
bolts and a great number of other
things.
Each of these concerns Is doing good
business, while their percentage of de-
veIopment is great Some of them have
grown into big manufacturing establish
ments which are known all over the
United States, while the demand for their
output is unusually large.

the small industries, and the man having
this quality is sure to succeed in Birming-
ham, even though he has practically no
capital to start with. This has been the
history of Birmingham. And even now
with the array of live industries there Is
room for any number more. There are
many things in demand here which have
to be imported from other places which
could undoubtedly be manufactured here
at profit. All that is needed is the man
with ginger in his makeup to start such
a plant. Even though he should start
with practically nothing the old saying
that history repeats itself would surely
be proven here.
A number of these large manufacturing
plants had their birth in nothing more
than a shed several years ago. The de-
mand for their product, however, COM
bined with the business sense of their OPP
orators, caused them TO spread out into
the next storeroom, then later Into a
larger building and finally into large
buildings of their own. AS their business
increased the quantity of their help grew.
creating more population.
1t is this increase in population which
has much to do with the establishment of
the small industry, and Birmingham con-
tinues to grow rapidly The demand for
some certain article grows to goodly pro-
portions, some man with keen business
sense notes this fact and starts manufac-
turing the article. He goes after the local
trade, then after getting the business firm
ly established begins to spread out and
