Mems Hats Of Rabbit FUR.

Mems hats, stlff or soft alike, are
made from the fur of the rabbit A
copper cone, whose very top is more
or less the shape of the crown of a
derby hat, and whose sides are GOV.
cred with minute holes, is revolyed
very swiftly over a suction fan. The
fur is fed on to the cone and the sue.
tion and the swift revolution draws
this against the cone in the form
of a fur cone very far in shape from
the finished hat, but which rapidly
becomes a finished hat by sizing,
shrinking shaping and trimming. In.
divdual skill of a very high order
counts for everything Danbury, Conn
makes SO per cent OF the stiff hats
made in the United States.

From Ranch 10 Broom.

Police Judge Thomas Stanton Of
East st. Louis gave up his office and
took job on the streets as sweeper
The doctors advised him that he must
get busy out of doors or in a short
time he would need no employment of
any kind. 1t Is rather unusual for a
man who Is ordered out of doors to
take to the streets Of city rather
than to the fields and the woods But
evidently in this case the mans lungs
We're all right, and II was the exer
else that he needed. The Judge
claimed that he noted an immediate
Improvement in his condition. His old
job paid him $500 per month, while
his new one yields but $3.50 per day.
But he gave up the old one cheerfully
For no doubt he holds that 1t is better
to be living street sweeper than a
dead judge Burlington Hawk-Eye.

The Eake Robbery hnain

1t was fishy looking story. The To-
cal agent of New York corporation
out in Wisconsin town. handling its
funds daily, reported a robbery. Two
men had come into the office late at
night, when he was at work on the
books. and at the points of pistols he
had yielded up $4,000 of the company's
funds. Two days later the confidential
travelling agent Of the corporation
dropped into the town and talked 1t
over with the local man in a quiet
way, I'm five minutes" he told Tip,
II knew there had never teen any
robbery. How did | know Instinct
The story he told was too sweet
There wasn't a flaw in it. 1t was like
framed-up alibi You know the best
alibi, until you can knock 1t out is the
one that is invented fos the occasion .

New system Of Wireless.

According to a recent press report,
a new system Of wireless te1egTaphy
has just been completed by the Ger.
man Telefunken Wireless Telegraph
company The system goes by the
name of singing sparks" and it is
claimed for it that it produces contin-
uous oscillations, says Scientific
American. How this system differs
from the singing arc Is not explained
If system has been evolved by which
continuous oscillations may be main
tanned with perfect regularity, the
value of it would be even greater for
wireless telephony than for wireless
telegraphy. as ii would enable one
to send spoken messages over much
longer radius than has hitherto been
possible.
