A dark fabric coated with a sub
stance that may be scratched on has
lately been designed for the use OF
the mechanical craftsman, and 1t is
believed it will eliminate. the neces-

a steel scriber which produces clear
translucent lines upon the dark

made from this finished drawing. The
dark coating on the fabric is firm
enough not to be easily scratched In
handling.
Corrections are made with an or
dinarv pen by following the lines to

of replacing the color taken OF by
the scriber. These drawings are per-
manent and do not show dirt which

BALLARAT.

Ballarat is in Australia seventy
miles inland from Melbourne. One
rolls over great stretches OF grazing
lands. grass grown prairies with
hedge like bands of trees bordering
the streams. 1t is the great plans OF
America with bit more rain and
climate that is mild yet bracing. Art

eblo, Col, or Dallas. Tex. modern,
busting industrial. One wonders
why such a town came to be planted
IN such a place. He has opened the
way for story for Ballarat mas a

1t was hack in 1851 that it all be-
gan. Two lonely prospectus mad
followed a gulch into this region IN
search of placer gold. One day they
picked up a trace. got, busy and wash
ed ont two and a. half pounds OF the
yellow metal worth 5000. They re-
heated the process the next day and
the next. The information took to
its wings and in month all the
world knew. The deluge was on.
Ballarat proved itself the richest
gold camp the world has ever known.
Soon 100000 people were washing
out its sands and many fortunes were
made every week. The prof1igacy OF
nature In planting gold here was evil
denced by the finding of two nuggets
each of. which weighed $50 pounds.
They alone were worth 100000. The
cauu thrust Australia in among the
gold producing regions OF the world
and there it has remained ever since.
Tho government placed a tax on
prospecting and there followed the
parallel to the Boston Tea Party.
The miners revolted There was a
fight at, the Eureka stockade. There
today stands monume nt to Peter
I,alor Who gave his life for liberty.
The Ballarat sands were washed
clean of their gold. The quartz below
was attacked and now the mines are
operated Mt a depth of 2 1000 feet be-
low the surface. But Ballarat has
become center for the wool indus

burg OF. the region-a different town
than IN the days of its young ro-
nance.
1t is strange that. such commun-
ity should lay claim to speaking the.
purest English IN the world. yet It

claim. iRallarat English. concise, to

McAdoo's Cotton Scheme.

The announcement by Secretary NC
iAtioo Of his purpose to loan without
interest $3O.o0o,0 600 in gold to three
southern federal reserve banks. with
the purpose of enabling them in turn
to loan this money on cotton ware
house receipts, has brought forth the
charge that such step is both I'M
necessary and futile and can be de-
signed for no purpose other than to
make political capital. This Is the
view of practically all the bankers and
hnanciers, who recall that year ago
Mr.. AfcAdoo caused to be raised a
500, 100000 cotton pool which was a
total failure. almost no part OF the
fund being used after it was raised,
and the results being SO ridiculous as
to make the men interested ashamed
to make public the amount of their
expenses, which they paid out of their
own pockets rather than reveal the
extent Of the fiasco.
It is contended by those interested
that the southern banks are in no need
of funds beyond what they can easily
procure from their regular banking
correspond dents and tshat the PROPOSE
tion to loan them $30.00O.G0 of govern
ment funds is merely a petty scheme
for currying political favor.
