The government has recently granted two patents, which cover probably the most intricate and complex machine ever constructed. It is claimed that be- fore the first machine was perfected the company constructing it had ex— pended $1,300,000. The first applica- tion filed contained 204 sheets of draw- ings, having over 1,000 separate views. During the eight years the case was .pending in the office before allowance the number of sheets was reduced to 163. When it is remembered that the majority of patents have but a single sheet of drawings, and that to require as many as ten sheets is quite an excep- tion, the magnitude of the invention can be understood. The fees charged by the patent office are uniform for all cases, no matter how complex or how simple—$15 for filing the case and $20 additional on allowance of the patent. “Then this case was filed it was turned over for examination to an examiner, who received a salary of$1,800,11nd he spent six weeks in studying the case before being able to make the first ac- tion. The entire specification vs as tw1ce rewritten, each time by a different at- torney. How much this cost the inven- tor is not known, but it is rumored that the attorney who first prepared the case received a fee of $10,000 and an allowance of $2.000 extra to pay for the drawings. While the case was pend— ing the examiner who first had it in charge resigned from the office, and it was turned over to another assistant of the same rank. This assistant went SEEKS ft“? 1;: St NEW LOT IN BLUE AND BLACK, 8610831 DIAGONAL WORSTED SUITS. IN BLUE AND BLACK. . $8.50 a: Suit: Fme alilqtggrgayboalrlgains Call and examine.

For argument the chief of the division then carried in the papers, making a pile some two feet thick of unfolded draw- ings and typewritten specification, and the commissioner said: “He can go." The machine is for the setting, justify- ing and distribution of type. It com— prises no less than 18, 000 separate pars ts. The patent office is a money making institution. It cams, above expenses, about $200,000 per year, and now has deposited in the treasury a 1::11t little- balance of over $4,000,000. Upon this job, however, it .‘ost about $1,000 worth of time of the various Intent nflice of- ficials before maturing into a patent, and when issued the patent rule had to be followed of preparing copies for sale at the regulation. price of ten cents each. The 244 sheets of drawings had to be photo-lithographed and the entire body of the specification and claims Set up in type, costing fo r the third edi- tion, as est? :nated by the ordinary rules, a few cents over six dollars per copy. These copies are sold to the public for ten cents each, or 20 cents for the two patents, covering the entire invent-ion. As soon as one edition is exhausted another is ordered. A great many peo- ple order copies of the patents just for curiosities.——VVashington Star. BAPTIZED IN A WIG. Laughable Result Due to a Convert’s Great Personal Pride. It was proved at a baptizing a. few days ago that it is well to go well pre- pared if you are to bebaptized. A cit- izen who was immersed at the last oc— currence of this kind can testify to this effect. This gentleman, says the Louis- ville Commercial, had intended to be baptized, but it toth him a long time to make up his mind. At last, however, he came to a. decision, and the minister led him to a.- pool. So far all was well. The trouble commenced as soon as the minister tried to put the citizen’s head under the water. The citizen ap- parently did not object to standing in the water up to his ears, but further, Or rather deeper, he did‘not wish to go. Finally, as a last resort, the minister placed his hand on his head and began to bear down. As he did so the citizen’s mass of hair slipped from his head, and the minister found himself standing with a wig in his hand, while the bald head of the citizen loomed up conspic- uously. After this there was no trouble in get ting this head under the water. The citizen had always carefully concealed ; the fact that he was bald, and when he i was found out he went under the water so willing and stayed so long that the spectators became frightened. He was . taken out very much ashamed of him- self. ODD BILLIARD FACTS. Making a Table in a Day—The Balls Sea- soned in Incubators—Coloring Red Bulls. A billiard table can be built in 24 hours if cartc bla‘nche is given to the manufacturer, but he prefers to have time to get the right effects, from one month to six. The wood needs to be seasoned for a period of nearly seven years. Rich, deep Spanish mahogany is used, pollard oak, ebony and satin wood. Tables are not always covered in green. Blue is sometimes used and a pure olive green. The late Prince Leo- pold was the first to make use of the latter color, and olive green is known to- -day in the billiard world as “Prince Leopold’s color.” The balls must be well seasoned be- fore they are used for play. Manufac- turers have incubators in which to store them that they may undergo the drying process. Some incubators will hold fully 3,000 balls. When they are first made they are “green.” Solid ivory is the only satisfactory material of which to make them; “artificial balls” (those made of'composition) are much heavier and do not wear well. English makers, to give the red balls a. perfect color, steep them in a decoction that is some-‘ times described as the,“guardsman’s bath.” This is extracted from the old coats of “Tommy Atkins,” and for bil- liard balls it is the finest scarlet dye known. __ 1 - -.- _ _.. .. ,___ __,._.3-,,__ I The Boston Sunday Herald has this to say of Fred Hall.

It is one of the Australian variety, and is over 90 years old. ——According to Prof. Wilcox, of Cor- nell university,the American people are gradually “settling down”—~do ' not. migrate so much from state to state as formerly. In 1860 exactly one-fourth of the population of the United States had emigrated from the state where they were born. But since 1870 the tendency to stick to theold home has steadily in- creased. This tendency is more marked in New England than elsewhere. ——Me11 of brains are paid handsome salaries to devise new schemes.

A GRAND OLD COUPLE. Mrs. Gladstone as Popular in England as Her Famous Husband. Much of Mr. Gladstone’s marvelous success in life, the good which he has accomplished for his country and the hold which he has obtained on the af- fections of his countrymen is due to the happiness of his home life and domestic surroundings. Never was afamlly more truly united than that of the Glad- stones. They constitutethe most whole- some type of the English country fam- ily, wholesome in mind and wholesome in body, and no breath of dissension or scandal has ever disturbed the serenity of their mutual relations. daughters, as well as those who have entered the family by marriage, all vie with one another in reverence and devo- tion for the one who has done so much to render the name which they bear illustrious, a synonym for justice,-piety and generosity. But superior to them all on that score is the “Grand Old \Voman,” as the ven- erable Mrs. Gladstone, the once famous beauty, Carry Glynn, is affectionately described throughout- the United King- dom. No wife is more watchful and de- voted than she, and Mr. Gladstone has made few political speeches in parlia— ment when she has not eat in the gal- lery, inspiring him with the knowledge of her presence, and few public ad- dresses outside the wallsof Westmin- ster when she has not sat by his side, either on the platform ' or on the hustlngs. Indeed, upon one occasion. when about 15 years ago he was called upon to speak in the open air at Green- wich to an excremely hostile audience, she won the day for him by standing throughout by his side, holding an um- brella to shield his silvered locks from the glare of the sun. Instead of the hisses, the howls and even the missiles that were anticipated from the mob. there were cheers for the “Grand Old .Couple” and for their “Grand Old Gamp.”—Philadelphia Times. Skating Suits. Fashionable women have returned to their love of skating, and some pretty fur-trimmed costumes will be worn in their rather exclusive rinks. These differ little from the cloth tailor gowns seen every day, but are slightly shorter in the skirt, and not too wide. “Tell- fitted jacket waists with fur vest ova fur Eton jacket set on are prescribed by tailors, while others wear the new belted jackets of baby-lamb or of seal- skin, with a. cloth skirt bordered nar- rowly with the same fur. A bright bit of color is liked for these cloth frocks, as purplish-red, or leaf green, or else golden-brown trimmed with Capucine velvet or with glowing poppy‘ rod. Capes are not affected by skaters while on the ice, though useful after- ward to prevent chill. A small close hat with soft puffed crown, or a genuine turban of fur or of cloth or velvet is far preferable to wider-brimmed hats for skaters—Harper’s Bazar. Borchgrevlnk, the Norwegian Explorer. Borchgrevink is a. Norwegian, some 30 years of age, of medium height and of modest mien, and has the typical Scandinavian fairness of hair and flor- idity of complexion. His face gives signs of that determined spirit and fixity of purpose which Norse explorers have shown from the early vikings to this latest voyager. His hardships, in- cident to service before the mast in a Whaler, were almost ignored, and he dwelt on the Antarctic sea and its con- ditions. The intelligent audience noted his impersonal and retiring disposition, and showed its own appreciation by generous applause—Gen. A. W. Greely, in Century. Advertise in the GAZETTE.
