She is interested in some way in the Rockwood pottery, and isa con- firmed china-maniac. Just let her ask my wife about that half-inch specimen of ceramics that I bought for her yesterday, and there will be music in the air.” “Does not your wife like to show her treasures?” “Why, my dsai, T boyt is a glass eye. You see, when I married my wife, about six years ago, I knew her eyesight was defective on one side; but I thought the useless eye was just as handsome as the good one. That is where I made my mi take. She wore a glass eye then, over a horribly disfigured eyeball. That eye has lost its color, and I was compelled yesterday to buy her a new one. Her friends are now in the same box* that I was before marriage showed me my mis- take. They imagine that she has two handsome eyes, without the slightest idea that one is false. “When our young lady begins her in- vestigation my wife will see at onco that her secret is in danger, and she will be fairly wild. I came away this morning without any breakfast, because there was no breakfast ready for me, and that is the reason I let the cat out of the bag.” “Is the wearing of a glass at all pain- ful?” “Not at all. one?” “No.” “The importer's place of business is but a short distance from here. We will drop down there, if you hke.” Passing a sign in the narrow doorway read “‘Glass Eyes inserted,” and going up a steep flight of stairs, the reporter :uus his companion found themselves in the parlor of the importer. 8, 1 import all of my human eyes,"” said he, “‘and sell them ata uniform price of 810 cach, There is a larger sale for them than you might think. They are merely shells made to fit over the face of the eyeball, as you see.” He took a brown-irised eye out of its padded case and handed it over for in- spection, It was simply a shell of glass, with perfectly smooth edges, shaped to cover the eye-ball from muscie to muscle. This iris, pupil and veins that traverse the white of the eye wera delicately painted in exact imitation of a naturaj orh, “The shell, at first,” remarked the im- porter, ‘‘is a concave bit of pure crystal, Itis then passed to the painter,” who colors it on the inside, and thence it goes to be fired. A small particle of glaze is placed in the hollow, upon the painting, and when tho firing is complete the colors are fixed between two psnwu of glass, as it were. Unless broken, through carclessness, n_glass oye . will keep its color and usefulness for ten years or more, “Is theré any difliculty in inserting them?"” None at all. Stand right still fora min- ute.” Slightly turning back the reporter's upper oyelid, the artist inserted the upper edge of one of the shells; he moved it sidewise and upward with a dextrous motion of his fingers, and then, with a littlo click, it settled into place, com- pletely . covering tho eye-ball, and of course blinding the eye for the time be- yond a slight feeling of fullness, vas declared would soon wear | away, there was no pain or discomfort noticeable, “Wo have quite as many gentlemen as lady customers,” came the response to a question, ““When it is possible to cover 80 promi- nent a disfigurement as an injured eye there is no question that duty to the pub- lic demands the wearing of these shells, ‘They are not painful orinjurious, There | is no danger of their falling out, as the muscles of the eye keep them in_place, and when their durability is considered it will be seen that they are very cheap. “Yen, sometimes it is difiicult to got o porfect match for s good eye. The size of the iris, the size of the pupil,the veins and color of the white, as well as the size of tho shell and color of the iris, must be matched exactly.” **They ar to be taken out atnight,like a set of false teoth, I suppose’” Have you never seen “Of course, of course; otherwise an awkward accident might happen. Now, here is an eye that does not need to be taken eut from one year's end to the other.” He handed over a solid crystal, with a six-inch wire inserted in the uncler side. The coloring was not so delicate as in the shells, and the entire workmanship was inferior, “That is a home-mado eye.

When alive it weighed a%ittle over three pounds. It was ht in the Lake Superior country by Rev. G, E. Gordon, who brought it here to be stufted.” J. (. Spranges, the taxidermist, stopped in his work of stufling a duck to return the foregoing reply to a question put to him by a foreg reply to a question put to him by a curtous Millwaukee Wisconsin reporter. “ls it a very frequent thing for sports- men to gcek your assistance in preserving the victims of their prowess!” the repor er asked, “Oh, yes, a very large part of my work consists in ‘setting up’ the trophies of the chase. 1 receive for birds, fish, and ani mals of all sorts from sportsmen in all | parts of Wisconsinand Towa Sometimes | 1 got work from as far oft as Now York. Often a hunter who shoots a large ani wmal, liko a deer, wants only the head pre- served. 1 get a great many deer heads | to stufl. Collectors are another class of men who give a great deal of employment to the taxidermist—scientitic colloctors, 1 mean, who desro specimens to place in theircabinet. 1 get a great deal of work, too, from people whose pets have died. Pet birds of all sorts are brought to me to bo stuffed. There are more canaries than anything else, but sometimes even Shicleny Weo bFOUGHLY 1 get a great many orders to stuff black- and-tan dogs. When 1 have no ordr on hand I often stufi’ birds or animals | which I keep in my store tosell to people who want them. A great many people like to have a little caso of humming- birds fora parlor ornament. Milliners buy a great many small, bright plumaged birds. There is a milliner on Milwaukee street whe has a large stuffed owl in her show-window. A great many atuffed ani- | mals are used as ornaments in saloons. There are saloons in this city where you may seo dogs and foxes and birds that 1 stuffed thirty years ago.” *‘Why,how long you have been in Mil waukee?’ asked the roporter. Thirty-one years,” replied Mr. Spran- ger; **T came here from Saxony thirty-one years azo. 1 learned the art of taxidor- my in the old country. 1t cost me $300. 1 am a musician, too,and have been a member of Severence & Willinms' band for twenty years.” Mr. Spranger is o pleasant, little old gentleman, and speaks English with an accent which the reporter has not at- tempted to reproduce. The art of dermy which he practices is one of ple processes. Anyone can_proserve the skin of a bird or a beast. But to ‘set up’ an animal in a natural, life-like attitude requires patience, knowledge and dexteri- ty. The first process, when a bird is to be stuffed, is to remove the skin and feathers entire, detaching every particle of flesh and fat. The skin is preserved by tho use an arsenical preparation. To mount a bird, the taxidermist makes a body of tow wrapped abnut with twine, which he inserts . tho skin. Next he places wires in the head and legs, inscrts glras eyes in their proper places, carefully restores the natural contour of the difler ent parts with tow, skillfully sews up the skin, bends the subject into a natural at- titude, and fixes it upon a standard His work is then done. Mr. Spranger says that a good deal of cheap taxidermy is done in_this country nowadays which can not be depended u- on to last. When the work if well done, at a fair price, and warranted, he says it may be depended upon to last an indefi- nite length of time—certainly longer thaa the average duration of human life. He says that tho case of Dbirds which he has on exhibition at the exposition contains many which were stuffed by nim over thirty years ago, and appear to-day to be in as good a state of preservation as ever. SPLICED MULE ON A BU Terrible Fate of a Kickee Made Worse by Surgery. | ve A Chat Mounter | AW. “Well, I don’'t know much about mules,” but what T do know is decidedly against mule nature. You see, I traded pretty extensively in mules once, and T got hold of a Kentucky mulo that was a puzzler. From his middlo to his head he was a perfect lamb. To see the mild, amiable look on that animal’s face was enough to make you trust him with an implicit faith. But from his middle the other , to his tail, he was the wicked- est mule that ever walked. There was nothing low and mean that he wouldn't do with those heels, and all the time he'd have a look of pain on his face that said he just despised the way his other half was goin’ on, He'd smash up anythiy he was hitched to with those heels of liis, and all the time tears of shame as big as pennies would roll out of hix eyes. Well, my next neighbor had a mule that hailed | from Texas, but I always belieyed his mule and mine were twin-brothers and got mixed in infanc That Texas mule was all right in his run:ln, but dead wrong in the head. You could stand around his | loels all day in perfect safety, but just get within reaching distance of his head and a murderous look would come into a8 big as a buck-wheat cake. We used to talk it over and my n it would be a good idea to saw those mules in two and stick the good ends to gother and make one good and one bad | mule and then toss up for choice. 5o we | got & horse doctor to cut them mules in two and stuck them together again. Well, | you never saw such a fie that b ended mule wade. He smashed every- thing within reach and passed his time going round hunting for cussedness, ! while that now really good mule followed | him around with a look of angu his fac That wicked mule finally, having | devastated tho region all round him, wandered oft to our saw mill. The buze- | ! saw charmed him and he went up to got | |a taste. But when a couple of inches of his nose fell on the tloor he drew back surprised and a thoughtful look came into his eyes. Then he just turned round to got & good brace and let drive at that his eyes and he'd take a bito out of you | glihor thought |« FURNITU RE e THE e CHEA P EST PLACE IN OMAHA TO BUY Furn ——18 iture AT DEWEY & STONES the STAIRS TO CLIMB ELEVATOR TO THE They always have NO largest and best stock.

Mix, one of theoldest en- gineers now living, who boated on the firat and many of our fast steamers, says Steamers, | tho account recently published in one of our morning contemporary is incorrect, and furnishes the following data of fast time from New Orleans to Louisville and and Cincinnoti. In the spring of 1827 the Huntress (on which Mr. Mix was an apprentice to the engineer) and seh hacked out of New Orleans to; the Huntress beating the Tecumseh to Portland, making the run in eight days and eight hours. In May, 1827, the Te- cumseh cane up in eight days and fou: hours, beating her time the month provi- ous four hours. In 1834 tho Tuscarora came up in seven days and two hours, In the spring of 1837 the Rudolph came np in six days and twenty-two hours, In May, 1857, Mr. Mix was engineer of the Emperor, when she crme up in six days and fifteen hours, In 1838 the Diana and ard Shippen came out, both very fast and built precisely alike. In the spring of 1830 the Diana made the trip in six days and eight hours. Later in the sea- son the Shippen made the trip in five days and eighteen hours, Capt. Mix did his last boating during the war. Whipping Factory-Girls, Hoston Herald If a Toronto corset-makertells the truth, some of the working-girls in that city are held in a sort of white slavery., *‘Alice’ of Toronto, having seenin The New Yors Graphic that “Ada” of New York earns &80 week as a_shop-girl and is greatly discontented therewith writes to our con temporary that in her opinion a worki girl who receives $8 a week ought to be very happy, for in Toronto few girls get more than £3.50 or §4 a week, either be- hind the counter or in the workroom, *‘I myself,” she adds, ‘‘work in ac factory and seldom make morethan and perhaps it will make Ada more con- tented with her position if she knews that wo work-girls have to submit to cor- poral punishment. It is nearly o year since when, owing to my father's death. I had to 2o to work. Shortly after getting my place the forewoman told me one day that I had spoiled u pair of corsets by my carelessness, and that she would either dismiss me or else I must take a whip- ping. With such an alternative, I sub- mitted to & whipping, and got a very severe and humiliating punishment, and seldom a day passes but some girl-—many of them alinost women—get whipped in the factory where I work, and I believe the same i pretty gencral.” Whipping factory-girls! Shade of Wilberforce, can such a thing be done under the British flag! We are, and have aright to be, very slow in believing thisstory of whiteslave- n Toronto. SHERIFF'S REPORT.
