How He Knew.

In an assault and battery case
tried in Cleveland court the pros
ecuting witness testified at length
that the defendant had knocked him
senseless and had then kicked him
for several minutes.
"If this mans attack rendered
you unconscious" demanded the
magistrate, show is it that you know
he kicked you when you vera
down ?"
This question seemed to floor the
witness. He was lost in reflection
for some moments; then, brighten
ing, he replied:
81 know it, your honor, because
that's what / would have done to
him if I'd got him Circle

ESKIMO FOOTWEAR.
Boots of the Arctic Regions and How
They Are Made.

Boots OF the Arctic regions ana IloW
They Are Made.
The Eskimos. as Il rule, use moth
ing but the sealskin. deerskin, musk
oxen, arctic hare and bird skins for
both their feet and their clothing.
In the first place they skin the hare,
clean and dry it and chew it all over,
and when it is thoroughly dry they
cut it up and make socks to wear
inside of their seal or deer skin
boots Tin their language called ka-
maks). The sealskin is taken, the
fat cleaned off, a wooden frame
made about a foot on the round
larger than the skin, and the skin is
then laced tightly around a frame
and kept in the sun until thorough
ly dry.
Then the squaws or women clean
and. set about cutting it up into
boots, which are generally made
about two or three sizes too large.
The bottom, or sole, is cut to the
shape of the foot in one piece, the
uppess are joined and sewed to the
edge Of the bottom, and the fore
part rs sewed to the leg nearly
straight across the instep. The leg
is eU6 cut according to the length
wanted, with a receiving string in
the top to tie over, thus keeping the
snow oEt.
The arctic Eskimos do not use
bark or tan Of any kind for their.
skins. 1t cannot be procured, &4g
they do not know how to use "
Should their boots dry up their ~
dies. on sQuaws, take them and chew
them all over. and in ten minutes
they are as soft as a glove. Farther
south and in some parts of Labra-
dor the skins are barked and thor
oughly dried and when made up last
much longer. 1t makes a good deal
of difference what species Of seals
are used. The best by far are the
square ripper and the old harp seal.
Could they get leather and soles for
theiR boots as we do in this country
it would he an improvement for
summer wear, but would not answer
for winter
A good pair of skin boots will last
an Eskimo for nearly six months
with constant wear on the ice

Many Rumors in Air.
Reported in Convent.

Another story in circulation was that
Miss de Janon had been located and Sc
cretly taken to a convent.
All these reports arose from the mys-
terious and secretive attitude assumed
by high police officials and others closely
identified in the search for the girl.
Some of them refuse to confirm or deny
anything. Others merely disclaim knowl-
edge of the finding of Miss de Janon.
While those interested i'm the extraor-
binary case decline to talk of the ru-
mored finding of Miss de Janon. they do
not hesitate to say that nothing is known
of the whereabouts Of Cohen.
