PARCHMENT.

II Was Invented by the Greeks when
lapyrus Was Scarce.
There is no evidence that papyrus
was grown for commercial purposes
outside of Egypt during the whole
Roman period, and the industry Of its
growth and manufacture must have
been a large and profitable one. In
the time Of Tiberius sedition was
nearly caused by scarcity Of paper,
and rebellious paper maker, in the
days of Aurelian, boosted that he could
business-and did it too.
Parchment was invented by the
Greeks when papyrus was scarce, and
the middle ages reinvented it. There
is evidence that linen rags were used
in paper making us early as the eighth
and ninth centuries. In paper of that
period the fiber was chiefly linen, with
traces of cotton. hemp and other fibers.
The known specimens are of oriental
origin and appear to have been clayed,
like modern papers. the material used
being a starch paste manufactured
from wheat.
The oldest manuscript written on
cotton paper in England is in the Brit
ish museum and dates from 1O49 A. D..
and the oldest ON the same material in
the Paris National library is dated
1850. In 1856 the Christian successors
Of the Spanish Saracens made paper
Of rags instead of raw cotton, which
had been formerly employed.

ton of an old Welsh home: THE floor

a long. many legged table, an oak set

clocks, and they were the most human
clocks l ever met. for they licked with
effort and uneasiness. They found the
hours troublesome and did not twitter
mechanically over them. and at mid
night the twelve strokes always nearly
ruined them. so great was the effort.

RULES FOR CYCLISTS.
Quaint Regulations That Are Enc
forced In FOREIGN Lands.

Quaint Regulations That Are Enc
forced In Foreign Lands.
In some foreign countries and cities
there are rules and regulations for wo-
men cyclists which are decidedly
quaint, according to the American way
Of thinking.
Russian women are not allowed to
own cycles except by royal permission,
and it is sparingly given. In fact. I'M
til comparatively lately, there have
been but few Russian wheelwomen.
and the majority of these belonged to
the royal family.
In France women cyclists are plenti-
full, but a curious law exists which
prevents a married woman joining a
touring club unless she can present
signed declaration from her husband
that he is willing that she should do SO.
In Germany women cyclists are
obliged to pass an examination before
the city police showing that they have
perfect control Of their bicycles before
they can obtain permission to ride in
the streets, and they must carry with
them their license on their cycles.
In Vienna no wheelwoman is allow
ed to take her hands from the handle
bars while riding in the streets, and In
Florence the fair cyclist is compelled
to carry two bells on her machine to
warn pedestrians of her vicinity.
These rules are all for the special
benefit of women and do not apply to
men, who doubtless are considered
more capable Of controlling the va
carries of the giddy wheel.-New York

C|TY'S TAX RATE
RAISED Z CENTS
Increased Expenditures Runs
The Rate Up to 1882 on
The Hundred Dollars.
Is CENTS FOR HIGH SCHOOL
TAX RATE FOR COMING YEAR is
ONE OF THE HIGHEST EVER
FIXED ON CITY PROPERTY
TABLE SHOWING DEPARTMENTS

Property owners Of Richmond will
pay tax rate of $3.50 per hundred dol
lars assessed valuation, next year. The
rate has been increased twelve cents,
due to the action of the officials of tina
school, city and the township advisory
board. The rate for next year is one
of the highest rates ever fixed on city
property.
No doubt the citizens of Richmond
will disapprove OF the increase in the
tax rate. This years rate of 81 20
cents was considered very high How
ever, the increase in the rate was nec-
essary in order that Improvements
might be made.
Officials of the school city who Or
dered the sale of $175,OOO worth of
bonds to pay for the construction and
equipment of the new high school,
Ninth and North B street, have to
guarantee payment on the bonds in
ten years time. In order to do this,
it was necessary to fix a levy of fiji
teen cents, known as the school house
bond tax. The officials lowered other
levies five cents. making the total in
crease for the school city only ten
cents.
Township Tax II Cents.
The township tax as it affects Rich
mond property owners, is eleven cents,
an increase of one cent for MORRISON
Reeves library and one cent raise for
the poor account. The expenses of the
library were greater than the receipts
and necessitated the increase.
A table showing the tax rate of the
state, county, city, school city, and
township. as it affects Richmond prop
erty holders is as follows:
