Largest Leather Delt In the World,
A Chicago company has made for a
aw mills plant what Is claimed to b
the largest single leather belt in the
world. It was made from pure oak
tuk tanned leather; Is 84 inches Id
width, three-ply In thickness, and
weighs lust 2,300 pounds. The belt Is
114 feet long; It took the centers of
the bides of 225 steers to make It, and
each-piece of this leather was separate

"II. (i. Wells," said a Chicago pub

attaches too much Importuuce to the
Question of style, of finish, and not
enough importance to the question ol
popularity. When Mr. Wells was over
here I went about with lilm a good denl,
ii nd one day I showed him tha magnifi
cent mansion that one of our leading
novelists owns. 'Literature,' I said, en
couragingly, 'is different from what it
was la Ir. Johnson's and Goldsmith's
time. You could live in just such a
house as that if you'd write us we pub
lishers want you to, Mr. Wells. You
could be u famous novelist, too. In
fact, it Is easy to be a fouious novelist
nowadays.' Mr. Wells laughed sourly.
'Yes,' he said. 'In the past the authors
died, but their works live. Now the
works die and the authors live.' "
David Christie Murray, Journalist,
traveler, novelist and playwright, died
In Loudon recently lu his sixty-first
year, having been born in Eugllsh
Staffordshire April 13, 1817. Murrny
was a reporter In Birmingham and Lon
don In his youth, was special corre
spondent of the London Times In the
Kusso-Turklsh war, and his travels lu
Australia, Canada and the United
States were all paid for by his letters
written for English papers. Ilia list
of forty-five books comprises mainly
novels. He wrote too many books and
too rapidly sometimes three in a year
as, for example, In 1880, "Aunt Ua
chel," "Cynic Fortune" and "First Per
son Singular"; lu 1889, "Old Hlazor's
Hero," "Novelist's Note Book," "One
Traveler Returns" this last with Hen
ry Herman, of whom we know nothing;
In 1889, "A Dangerous Catspaw,"
"Queen's Scarf," "Schwartz," "Young
Barter's Repentance." Murray was n
clever man, industrious in his calling,
apt in conversation, ready In speech,;
making addresses on special occasions
with n genial fortuity. He had shown
of lute a fondness for mystical specula-,
tlon. His last writing was an article
on "Theories of the Soul," not yet pub
lished.

A Lost Dollar.
A missionary bishop told at a dinner
In New York, according to the Sun,
this story about F. Marlou Crawford,
the famous novelist :
"Mr. Cruwford went to school," he
said, "In Concord, und one day he was
taken to call at a Concord clersyninu's.
The clergyman had a missionary box
on his drawing room table, and, time
hanging heavily ou the boy's hands, he
amused himself with trying whether a
silver dollar It was all the money lie
had in the world, nnd he had converted
It into that gigantic coin for safety
would go into the slit lu the box's top.
It was n close fit, but unfortunately It
did go, and the coin slipped out of the
embryo author's fingers. There was a
terrible crash of silver falling among
the coppers, and then tho boy, as the
novelists say, 'knew no more.' When
he came to himself he found the clergy
man and his friends in raptures over
his generosity."

Concerning, the Dead
He sat down nt Emily's desk to go
through her patters. Now that Ibe
bouse was sold, tlte servants dismissed
ami he himself back In bachelor quar
ters, there was no excuse for putting
the thing off. And If Emily' had known
a month ago, ho could not help thinking
as he opened the drawers that s'js was
to bo killed In a railway accident, she
could hardly have made his task easier.
Neat little bundles, tied up with pink
tape and clearly labeled, proclaimed her
various activities. "Mothers' Union,"
"Soup Kitchen," "Sunday School,"
"Book Club" how the names recalled
Emily herself. A swift pang of com
punction seized him. Was It possible,
then, that only after a mouth her image
was fading from "his mind? He con
tinued absently to empty drawers and
pigeon holes. More neat packages, half
a dozen unanswered letters, nnd ii few
note books that was all. Yes,
undoubtedly Emma was already becom
ing to him something shadowy and
Vague. How was It? Bather guiltily
he tried to avoid the unexplored deeps
of his mind, but the moment of self
revelatlon was no longer to be post
toned. He had been shocked, unnerved,
horrified by that sudden tragedy J but
underneath all that, could he deny the
existence of a shameful undercurrent
of feeling, a persistent, ever-growing
Joy in freedom regained? And yet,
what a good wife she had been; how
practical, careful of his Interests, un
exactlng. In a thousand ways, large
and small, he would be the loser. A
good wife, but yes, that was surely
It she had never conquered, never even
entered the kingdom of his mind. And
where she had never entered, could slu
ever be missed? Once in that king
dom there had dwelt indeed a woman,
but she was not Emily.
He turned with an . Impatient sigh.
In the doorway stood Alison.
Of course, It was a dream, but he
was conscious of n certain admiration
of himself as a dreamer. He had re
membered to make her look older oh.
quite five years older.
"Poor Mark!" she snid, softly.
He started. Then It was not a
dream?
"I have only Just heard," she ex
plained, gently. "We've bean in town
for a day or two, and Mrs. Ilerltson
Las just told me about Emily. I asked
her for your address, and came straight
on." She held out her hands In eager
sympathy. He felt her fingers cold be
neath her gloves. Quito naturally he
unbuttoned and drew them off, as
though they had never parted In bitter
silence more than five years ago. .
"You must get warm," he said,
gently, and led her t,o the fire.
"Do you think." Alison asked, trem
ulously, "that she suffered much?"
He shook his head. "Not at all ; the
doctors said it must have been Instan
taneous." Alison bounded in swift relief. "Ah,
I'm glad. But oh, It's hard to realize !
We were Just the same age, and twen
ty-four Is so young to die, and we used
to be to see so much of each other."
Why had she stopped short of the
word "friends?" he wondered.
"And to die like that!" she mur
mured. He thought he could guess what she
meant "There was nothing noth
ing " he began. He wanted to explain
that death had spared Emily the last
ludlgnity of being revolting In its form,
but he could find no words.
She nodded lu swift comprehension.
"Yes, yes, I know what you mean. II
would have been awful that."
He looked up with a grateful thrill.
Emily had never understood n half-fln-Ished
sentence.
"You were going through her pa
pers?" Alison asked, glancing nt the
open desk.
"Yes."
She leaned forward with sudden
eagerness. "Whut is that?"
"Which?"
She rose and picked up one of the
notebooks. "Ah, it is!" she said,, and
began to turn the puges.
"Alison !"
She looked up In quick defiance. "It's
my own," sho said.
"Your own?"
"Yes; my diary that I lost five and
A half years ago."
The bewilderment lu his face was not
to be mlstuken.
"You didn't tuke it?" she asked,
slowly.
"IV Alison, you can't seriously think
I did that?"
She was silent, but they rend the
unit thought In each other's eyes.
"Then it must have been " He
stopped. Why say what was obvious?
And Alison's gesture was eloquent. Em
11 y was dead.
She frowned thoughtfully. "Then
you haven't known, Mark, all these
years, what wus In my diary.
I He shook his head.
' She looked at him In grave wonder,
"Then what made you change to me?"
He bit bis lip. Did she think that
five years could heal such wounds?
"Have you forgotten?" he asked.
"I never knew," site said, steadily
"I saw that you grew cold; I knew you
bad ceased to love me. Could tho rea

"Alison!"
"And to be offended by Its contents.
But that, you say, was a wrong

"Yes."
"Then-"
"Alison, did you never treat me to
my face na though you liked me when
we were alone and behind my back
make fun of me, caricature me, criticise
my clothes, my walk, my way of speak
ing and laughing?" He spoke with
quiet bitterness.
She nodded emphatically. "Often.
Most of It's lu the diary."
"Must I reiHat that I know nothing
of the diary. I heard."
"You heard?" Her look was ques
tioning. "I think you ought to tell me
something, If only oue thing, that you

He was silent.

He was looking at her with startled
eyes. "The date," he breathed ; "what
date did you say?"
She referred to the diary. "March 18."
"But that was before we were en
gaged."
"Oh, yes."
"But Emily "
"Ah, I sometimes thought "
Their eyes met. "Don't!" she said,
breathlessly. "I see, I see."
He began to see, too."
"I have always wondered," she
mused, "why you didn't understand,
even If you had read every word of the
diary. I felt sure you would see It
was all in self-defense. Could a girl
bear to let people think she cared for
a man before he had spoken? There
were girls who did It" her momentary
hesitation revealed to him as clearly as
words that Emily had been one of
them, nnd he reddened "but but that
only sent me flying to tho other ex
treme. When people tried to to pump
me about you, I said anything
laughed, mocked, mimicked, carica
tured in sheer terror lest anyone
should discover how much I cared."
He nodded. "I never knew," he said,
slowly. "I was told I thought all the
things that came to my ears were suld
by you after we were engaged."
"Mark !" sho said, and her voice
quivered.
lis was walking restlessly up nnd
dowu. "Our Insane pride !" ho groaned.
"If only we had spoken asked ques

through both their minds passed
flash of wonder that Emily should have
proved so good a judge of character,
should have calculated on just that
proud silence with which they had met
catastrophe. And yet she must have
been In some doubt, or why bail she re
moved Alison's only proof, the diary?"
Suddenly Alison nrose. "I must go,
Mark. I acted ou n sudden Impulse In
coming, nnd my Impulses are always
wrong." Her smile was very sad.
"Not this one," he urged, eagerly
"Alison, not this oue! You are In

She answered his uusitokeu thought
"Ah, Mark, has life led you to expect
such miracles?"
"Alison!" he Implored, "you'll forgive
me some day?"
"Forgive?" She turned away with
a sigh. "It would have been hard

He cnught his breath. "Alison! Y'ou

She shook her head. "No; I didn't t

turned towards the door. "Heally, I
must go, or I shall miss the train."
His voice was heavy with disappoint
ment. "Then you aren't on a visit In

She stood still. "A visit In town?"
she echoed, and her lips were white.
"Oh, no." Suddenly h swnyed toward

".Shall we not be Justified soon lu ;
asking women to produce certificates
of competency as to domesticity? Is
net the time at hand when women
should cease their unreasonable compe
tition with men?"
These questions, propounded by Prof.
Armstrong at the meeting of the Brit
ish association recently, were taken up
by several well-kuown people, says the
London Dally Mall. Mrs. IUitb Homan,
n leader of the movement for the teach
ing of housewifery to the girls of Eng
land, gave the following answer to the
rrofessor of chemistry :
"The more educated a woman Is the
mom keen she Is to learn. Many uni
versity women after marriage conic to
me to learn all they cau about the care
of n house and of childreu.
"For th)a reason I think the educated
girl makes the best housewife and the ,
best mother. They also realize how j
necessary it is mat oiuer gins anu
women should be trained In domestic
knowledge and so ycu find that all new
organizations for training tho working
womau In the management of a house
and the care of children are started by
educated ladies aud carried on by
them."
"I would not send my four daughters
to college," said Mrs. Luther Gullck of
New York. "I think girls ought to go
slowly through a high school nnd then
specialize in some branch of domestic
training or In something whereby they
can earn their living. I am unlike
many American women In thinking so,
but I believe a reaction will set In
agulnst the college or university train
ing of girls. Only about 50 or 32 per
cent of them marry after taking tho
higher course."
" Dr. Luis Slmarro, professor of ex
perimental psychology at the Univer
sity of Madrid, said tin question bnd
not arisen In Spain. He almost wished
It would. "A woman In Spain Is a
womnn In the true sense of the word,"
said the professor; "rather too much
so. She has but one Idea and that Is
to be docile and obedient to her hus
band. The principal prestige upon.
which n woman depends In Spain
is whether she Is pretty and whether
the man considers her so."
A Case of Scotch Shrewdness.
Iu a small town In the Midland!
there is a rich congregation which is
uot characterized by lavish liberality,

Time after time the minister hud
valuly appealed to Ills people to con

of the church. The members would,
Indeed, give something, but It wus
nearly always the smallest sliver coin
of the realm tbut was placed on the
plate.
A shrewd Scotchman, who had re
cently come to the place and joined
the church, was not long In notlclug
this state of affairs, aud a remedy
soon suggested Itself to bis practical
mind. ' i
"I tell you what," he said, to one
of the officials, "If you inak' nie treas
urer I'll engage to double the collec
tions in three months."
His offer wus ' promply accepted,
aud, - sure enough, the collections be
gan to Increase, until by tho time he
had stated they were nearly twice as
much as formerly.
"How have you managed It, Mr.
Sundyman?" said the pustor to him
one day.
"It's a great secret," returned the
canny Scot, "but I'll tell you lu con
fidence. The folk, I saw, malstly gave
three-penny bits. Well, when, I got
tho money every Sabbath evening, 1
carefully picked oot tho sum' coins

But the signals received wert utterly
unintelligible.
Many years more were spent in vain
in trying to decipher them.
They did not bear the slightest resem

earth.
Efforts then were made to communicate
with some planet whose learned men could

Finding it impossible to secure the ser
vices of any planet as an interpreter,
the effort was abandoned.
"Oo to Jupiter I" recklessly signaled the
earth and tore down its signal stations.
