The Giant Bihla.

There is in the Royal library at
Stockholm among other curiosities a
manuscript work known as the giant
Bible on account of its extraordinary
dimensions. 1t measures 80 centime-
tiers in length and is 90 centimeters
in breadth-that is, about 80 by 10
inches. 1t requires three men to lift
it. There are 300 pages, but seven
have been lost. The parchment of
which the book Is composed required
the skins OF 100 asses. There are two
columns on each page, and the book
contains the Old and New Testaments
with extracts from Josephus. The
initial letters are Illuminated. The
binding is Of oak. four and one-hali
centimeters In thickness. The book
narrowly escaped destruction in the
fire in the royal palace Of Stockholm
in 1897. 1t was saved, but somewhat
damaged, by being thrown out of 9

SAVING tho Oil.

"Tn Cairo" said journalist, 81
heard queer yarn about the fella-
hin. The fellahi& are the native ru-
ralists. They arG very poor. Well.
when the British built the Egyptian
state railway the officials were as
founded at the enormous quantities Of
train oil that disappeared. They knew
that all this oil couldn't be used for
lubricating purposes. SO they made an
investigation and found that it had
become the staple food Of the poor
fellahin. The railroad detectives re-
ported that the fellahin all over
Egypt were using the Egyptian state
railways train oil as their chief sup
port. They buttered their bread with
train oil. They fried their fish In train
oil. They made kind of suet pudding
with train oil as base. They drank
train oil heated as flesh producer or
builder up. So the railway officials
mixed castor oil with the stuff. and
the fellahln after years torturinl
and vain effort to acclimate their sys
tens TO the mixture decided to give
train oil up

National Indian War Veterans.

and addresses of those who served in
the United States and Volunteer service

records may be placed on the books of

Wanted to Go
On Stage.

OF all the disgusting things that
have been proposed lately, the most
disgusting was the effort of some
theatrical managers to induce Mrs.
Jack" Cudahy, the wife of the rich
Kansas City packer, who used his
knife effectively On one Of her adj
mirers, to go on the stage.
What right has this woman on the
stage?
Is the fact that she is under sus-
pieion of wrong-doing with a rich
banker qualification for stage life?
So far as is known, the woman has
never shown any histronic talent.
The notoriety that she has achieved
lately is such that would make her in
eligible to admittance in really respect
able society, such as composes the
middle classes of the great cities.
1t is true that her conduct caused
her husband to take a terrible revenge
On her banker friend, Lillis, but just
why this should fit her for the stage is
something that is not easily under
stood, unless she is to be exhibited in
dance halls, or'to degenerates.
Certainly, her recent escapade would
not commend her to theatergoers,
especially as she has never been heard
of as an actress.
The Hery-faet that Mrs. Cudahy
states that she would accept the offer,
except for her children, shows the
brazen effrontery of the woman, and
shows that she does not care for the
publicity that she has received and but
for the care of her children, she would
turn it to profit. The one redeeming
feature about her declaration is that
she seems to show some love for her
children, but, from what has occurred,
it may be considered that the children
might be better off under other in
fluences.
The effort to secure such characters
for the stage is what brings about
considerable criticism to a form of
amusement that could be, and often is,
e1evating.
The names of the theatrical people
from whom she received offers were
not made known, and it is reasonable
to suppose that they were not from
reputable theatrical agencies, but from
the kind that pander to morbid curios.
ity and to vulgar exhibitions.

Bids for Uniforms.

board will meet in special session and
award the contract. At the same hour
an interesting investigation will be
