NEW ORLEANS, Feb. s.-Quota-
lions on high silk hats and frock coats
have taken a sudden jump in the loca.
market, owing to the demand for them
for the reception of President-elect Taft
this week.
1t has been announced that everybody
connected with the reception must wear
the conventional frock coat and silk
hat. On account of climatic conditions
this combination has never been popu-
lar in New Orleans, In consequence,
several hundred committeeman find
their wardrobe minus the precious arti-
cles n have little hope of procuring
them in the depleted market, due in
part to the hat strike.
The Pr~esident-elect is to arrive at the
mouth of the river late next Wednesday

JERSEY RICH In HIGH
CLASS BUILDING STONE.

TRENTON. Feb. s~.-Professor J. Vol
ney Lewis. of Rutgers College, has pre-
pared a paper showing how inexhaust-
ible is New Jerseys supply of high
class building stone. DR.. Henry B.
Kummel, State geologist, has incorpo-
rated Professor Lewis's paper in his
forthcoming annual report. The stone
industry of New Jersey, while not the
most important of the mineral indus
tries Of the State, is, nevertheless, one
of considerable size. The total value of
the stone ~quarried in 1906 was some-
thing more than ST. 10000, and in 1907 it
amounted to more than 81, 500, 900. The
Investigations Of Professor Lewis DEM
onstrated the fact that there are high
grade building stones in the State,
chiefly GRANTEES.

GHOST m CLOCK.

story Of a ghost in the form of a
clock. At the approach Of midnight

grandfather" becomes inhabited by a
spook, The ticking changes into a
deep and peculiar humping, the clock
increases in stature, while a pair Of
gray feet pretrude from beneath its
base. Passing through transitional
stages the humping is replaced by a
spasmodic breathing. and upon the
stroke of IL the pendulum door opens,
revealing an enorVous ashy gray hand
with m%alshaped myers. The clock
face disappears. displaying a frightfal

GOOD AND BAD ANIMALS.

r. time to time, you read anec-
dotes of animals, which go to
show that they have an appre-
citation of right and wrong; that a dog,
for example, has a conscience as tender
as a child's, so far as his dog code goes,
and we generally explain it by saying
that they have been taught by man
what they shall, or shall not. do, and
that therein lies the secret of the ami
mails consciousness Of right and
wrong.
This is a mistake. AZ through the
animal kingdom the dia classes of
beasts, birds n repti .ye together

school, the first neces community

ORDER This is true . n; and 1t is
true of the animals, as vel.
Crudely speaking, if, in a pack Of

the threats of the judge and Jurors.
In India the natives are so familiar
with the fact that an insubordinate
