Cloth From Stone.
James McGuck , a Manayunk spin
ner , has an armchair covered with a
sot and silken fabric of Titian red.
which he wove toilsomely out of rock ,
the crumbling stone that Manayunk
masons build cheap houses of , says a
Philadelphia paper. McGuck thus de
scribes the weaving : "I threw about
a ton of the rock. In lamps as big as
your hand. Into the picker. The pick
er blades were dulled but the rock
was crushed and came out good stock ,
with a staple an inch long like as
bestos. This fluffy stuff I threw into
my carding machine , and first it be
came a soft. Inch-thick rope , then a
harder quarter-inch twine , and at this
point my mule took it and twisted it
till It was an ordinary thread , like
that you see on a spool of cotton. I
wove it on a hand loom then. This
little square of clota It's 18 Inches
square Is all I got. It took a ton ot
rook to make this llttle _ square. It Is
lather pretty , you ee. and It is very
dtir.ible. 1 dalra it Is the first cloth
ever woven out of real rock in the
history of the world. " UUca Qloba.
