WRITTEN BY OLNEY.
Cleveland Toned Draft of Venezuela
Message.

The dispute started by Golfers S
Weekly as to the authorship of Presi-
dent Cleveland's famous Venezuela
message is definitely settled Rich
mond Olney, of Boston, then Cleve-
lands Secretary of State, wrote the
original draft of that message at Mr..
Clevelands S own request, while the
latter was absent from Washington.
The Herald correspondent has seen a
copy of Mr.. Olney's original draft,
with corrections in both Mr.. Olney's
and President Cleveland's handwrit-
ings, proving beyond possible doubt
that Mr.. Cleveland knew of the draft
and had it in his possession before
sending the final message to congress.
Moreover, that part of the CleVe-
land message which particularly
aroused the fears and ire of the pa
cifsts, among them President Eliot
of Harvard, is almost word for word
as it left Mr.. Olney's pen. This
throws into doubt the correctness OF
the alleged remarks of President
Cleveland, quoted in Golfers Week
ly, that "Olney had no more to do
with that message than you have.
He never knew word of it till |
read it to him the day it was sent to
congress-"
Golfers infers from this alleged
quotation that Mr.. Olney's method of
dealing with England was far differ
ent from Mr.. Cleveland's, and that
the United States owes solely to the
latter the abrupt acquiescence of
England in our demands. How far
this comes from the truth can be
judged from a comparison of MIR. o.
ney's original draft with the message
as it finally reached congress. Though
the order of the wording is changed
in places, the essential substance is
the same and perhaps shade more
emphatic in Mr.. Olney's draft.-Bos-

PIGS AND PERFUME.
Pork Grease Essential to Manufacture
of Nilady's Scents.

Why is it that some of the most
delicate things are associated with
the pig, who is himself far from deli
cate? Pigskin is as recherche as
snakeskin. The pig greets us at the
beginning Of the day when we slip
our wallet into our coat or fasten on
our wrist watch, and again when We
go in to breakfast. But is it known
that he is responsible for the most
exquisite of scents of milady's bou-
doir? For hundreds of years ways
of extracting the odor of flowers were
tried. Success never came until
some one discovered that pig fat is
the best absorbent of the bouquet of
fresh flowers.
Room after room in the perfume
factory is filled with tubs of pig
grease. Fresh flowers are laid inside
every morning for weeks, the end of
the treatment coming only with the
end of the season of the particular
Hover in question. In some cases it
is continued for three months. The
grease is then boiled in alcohol. The
liquid, strained, is your scent The
solid substance left makes scented
soap. Immediately after cooling it is
drawn off directly into wee bottles,
the glass shoppers are covered with
white chamois skin, and the labels
pasted on.-Herbert Adams Gibbons,
in Harper's Magazine.
