VALUABLE FOX SKINS.
Twenty Five Hundred Dollars Paid
for Single PeIt in London.

| London. May 9-Twenty-fivc hundred
dollars for an ,,ndleSscd fox skin seems
| almost ircrcdibl". ard yet that record
was made at the recent spring fur sale
| in London. Another skin from the same
animal went at the bargain price of
$3.50 because it had Il few more white
hairs in ii than are permitted to enable
! "A skin to rank a [ at the furriers
|Lloyds.
BY the time tits $500 skin reaches
$1,000. ana it would take two skins to
make stole. The color fades in the
wearing, so that this costly fur will
very shortly be worth only Il third of its
present value. Narity, thy name is real
ly man. For. truth to tell, it is only in
a country where TIE magnificence of
his womens clothes f1atters a mans
self esteem that colossal sums will be
spent on them.
Nhll" they are the most valuable of
furS there are others calculated to make
ar ordinary man think ne is dreaming
"heh ne knows the prices paid for
them.
Next to the costly foxes are the long
ncusc-gfey or dark sea-otter skins. Sea
otters once abounded in the Rering Sea
ana even as Tar down as Vancouver.
