Many Visitors Are Prominent.

A feature of the demonstrations
which were given by Professor Shat
tuck before the visitors was an Illus
trated lecture this morning in which
were shown the workings of the re-
duction process on stumps in the field.
The lantern slides told story that
was truly a revelation to one not ac-
uuainted with the details of the re-
duction process. One huge pine stump,
for instance. which measured about six
feet in diameter and stood several feet
above the ground was worked UP by
a simple device which COST less than
SIS into more than 220 gallons of crude
acid liquid The process was simple
and covered a period of about twenty
days. The reduction device consisted
of a few joints of pipe, condensing
coil and tub in which to catch the
LIQUID. Small holes were bored in the
stump to depth of several feet be-
low the surface of the ground, one IL
which to start the fire and one TO pro-
vide a draft. A third hole running
downward through the top of the stump
provided an escape through the con-
densing coil for the smoke-and that
was all there was to it.

Canadians VIII Cooperate.

Mr. Lafon expressed his belief that
the British Columbian government
would now have but little hesitancy in
cooperating with some of the large
numbering concerns in the establish
ment of plant for the refining of for
est by-products such as is being en-
ployed here by Professor Shattuck,
though on a much larger scale. He
stated that many of the large lumber
companies in British Clumbia and
elsewhere in Canada are ready to ex-
pend large amounts in giving the
scheme a fair trial, and that he be-
lieves the work which has been
started here by Professor Shattuck
will have much to do in revolution
izing the numbering business and in
the creation of an entirely new indus

half years and will leave behind him
on his departure many social as well
as business friends who regret his 60
ing and wish him full measure of
success in his new field.
Mr.. Tirrell is a man whom it is hard
to phase, but the employees at the

him" Saturday noon at the factory
that will not soon be forgotten either
by Mr.. Tirrell or themselves.
Assistant Supt Ernest Wagner had
caused the floor of the packing room
to be cleared and at 11.45 the entire
bled and Mr.. Tirrell was summoned.
Assistant Supt. Wagner in "a neat

sembled, presented Mr.. Tirrell with
handsome gold watch and chain and

the gift was given in recognition of the
fact that they appreciated the fact
that their departing superintendent
knew a good shoe, how TO make one

The spectacle of Mr.. Tirrell at loss
for words to express his feelings was
indeed a novel one, and was never
known before by any of those assem-
bled. He rallied after a bit sufficient
~ TO express his thanks briefly, but
his condition was the best possible ev-
idence that he fully appreciated the
gift and the good wishes that accom-
panied it.
The young ladies of the Office force
also presented him with fine foun-
tain pen.

Recent Purchases of

The following from the Maine Woods

with the result of a days fur buying
in the town of Jefferson. In all he
purchased SO skins, 16 of which he OBJ
tanned of Mr.. Moody, who later in the
season captured the black fox which
also was purchased by Mr.. Robinson
and the price paid was said to be
about $4,000. This animal was captured
alive and WAS taken to Auburn by Mr..
Robinson where il was to be placed.
later, on fox farm. The driver of
the automobile was Walter NJ. Spear
Mr.. Robinson conducts a sporting
goods store and as a sideline buys
furs of the LEGAL trappers and fire.
quently makes trips into the country
where he calls on few of his friends
and this picture was taken back of
his store in Depot Square just after
he had returned from one of his trips.
He was away only four and one-half
hours in buying what is seen on the
machine. He sells his furs to Mr.
Hunnewell Of Auburn and usually goes
to that city every Saturday during the
busy season.
In buying furs he has several freaks
in the sporting line among which was
seen pair of Southern white iierons
which are rarely seen north of the
state of Maryland but these birds
were shot near Mahumkeag pond in
the town of Pittston. He has an Arc
tic bird with a white breast and black
wings, but these freaks were badly
in November. Among the fur freaks
he purchased n white muskrat which
was said by him to be the first one
he had seen in 40 years. He obtained
one at that time and it was consid-
cred curiosity rather than for use

About two years ago Mr. Robinson
purchased of Perley Lawrence of Au-
gusta a moose skin which MIR. Law
renee was To sell to Mr. Treby john
son bat he being in the South at, the
time of his return he let MIR. Robinson
have the skin. He did not see the
skin at that time but told Mr.. Law
renee to bring it to Hallowell and let
Edward Horne tan it. This fall Mr..
Horne delivered it to the store and it
was in bundle for some time When
it was opened it was q puzzle to the
local fur makers to tell what kind of
an animal it was. The hair on it was
finer than that Of a six-weeks- old
calf and it was as fine nearly as a
mink skin 10 the touch of ones hand.
