Tho nffilr in which Mlsu Crano llgjrrd
so prominently In Charleston continues
to excite comment from various cmiirtcrs.
Tho trentment received by tho nctrcss at
the hands of society people Is not so sur
prising to those who tiro familiar with
tho uitra conservative views entertained
by tho old residents of that city, views
which It seems aro held rather exclusive
ly In Charleston ns compared with other
large cities of tho south. Perhaps In no
other southern community would n sim
ilar feeling of hoiror have been produced
In society by tho unexpected appearance
of nn actress. Charleston Is unique. In
Its oxcluslveness In jnore ways than one.
In most southern cities newspapers pub
lish fulsome nccount of BOclety affairs m
a way that would causo a northern Journal
to bo mobbed. A moderately fair voung
woman Is termed "radiantly beautiful be
yond compart." A crulctly ilicssed mn
tron vvhoso solo pleco of Jowclry worn
may bo a modest brooch Is declared to
have been "literally blazing with dia
monds," while girls from tho north who
havo never cnuBcd tho jouths of tliclr
own towns to go rnvlng mnd over their
beauty aro seized with coiiftcrnatlon at
seeing thcmselTes described ns "queenly
belles of exquisite loveliness. ' A num
ber of fair Scrnntonlaus havo had this
experierco during winters In tho south.
Not bo In Charleston. There the strict
old Puritan ruio Is rellgloUBlv carried out
that no modest woman should bo named
In print but once, or nt most, twice,
when she marries and when sho dies. No
matter how prominent In society a girl
may be, when her marriage tnkea place
tho slmplo nuiioui cement Is made, noth
ing more no description ot the ceremony,
names of tha bthers composing the bridal
inrtv or details of any hort Tho
Charleston editor who would allow .111
account of tho details would bo promptly
visited with tho severest dlspleasum of
the best people nnd would probably And
It crnvenlent to leave town Among peo
ple who for ears unnumbered before the
cnittiq.il iho h.ivo dwelt behind walled
garden? where no rudo Inquisitive glance
could offend tho prlvncj of their homo
life, and who have held correspondingly
.Urlct views of tho dignity nnd prido
which should surround tho women ot
their family, the Intrusion of this person
from a profession upon which they ha J
looked with prejudice must have been
Indeed n most unwelcome event. Men,
like the cadets, who surely knew these pe
culiarities of Charleston tout hundred,
should have hesitated to Introduce Miss
Crane Into the select circles, however un
objectionable she might be personall.

stopping to tell the policemen shivering
In tho doorways of his mission.

Deadwood Dicks and tho Jcsco James of

Ten minutes afterward Watchman
Thompson and the bink watchman were
seated on chairs in the bank. Mr. Thomp
son was engaged in gctlng hack his

letting his breath out In voclfeious

The papers read before a scientific

dlnnrlly technical nnd-profound. ut I
the ninu who sat In nn ob'cure corner
close to the door listened with close at
tention to nil that was said. All the
members of the association regarded
him as the guest Invited by some other
member, and, as a matter of fact, he
was an entire stranger to even body.
He never Joined In the npplause, but
his attitude was unvarjlngly respect
ful nnd attentive, One of the members
In a spirit of hospitality, stopped him
before he could get out of the door.
"Glad to see vou here again, Mr. .
I must confess I have foi gotten your
name."
"Barker is my name," he answered,
with some embarrassment. "Slrlus
Barker."
"You have been a very regular at
tendant at our meetings of late."
"Yes. I took the liberty of dropping
in now nnd then. So long as I didn't
create any disturbance, I thought you
wouldn't object."
"You are Interested in science, then?"
"Yes; In a way."
"Are you a student of any particular
branch?"
"IV; I must confess I am not "
"Why, In that case a gieat deal of
what Is said here must be unintelligible
to you."
"It Is. To tell you the honest truth,
I couldn't tell a tilloblte from a petil-
fled crawfish. I don't believe that I
could distinguish, with any degree of
confidence, between a chunk of Juras
sic rock and a piece of hardtack "
'Any yet you enjoy yourself"
"Immensely! I heard about what you
were doing, and I couldn't resist tho
temptation to como and hear you my
self. Tho fascination was such that I
could not help repeating my vlslts.cv n
at tho rlk of being treited with In
dignity ns an Intruder. I hope there
will be no objection Jo my conttnul g
to sit quietly in this corner, for you
don't know what a glorious, blissful ro

A now German building nnd floouug
material Is known as Knock's cork stone.
Is damp pioof, ubsolntely water pioof und
practically lire proof; Is sound proof nnd
nlmost proof against wealing out. It can
be blocked nnd colored to represent tiling,
or can be finished to represent any wood
design: can bo varnished, pollsho I,
stained or llnlshed In almost any way
desired. It is very eaoy to tho foot In
walking, harbors no insects of nny kind
and Is very easily kept In order. Best 'if

refuse from cork factories Is ground i.p
Into meal and mixed with a similarly
mado tan bark meal, with these Is miACil
some ground peanut shells or like vege
table matter, together with paper waste,
alum nnd water. The mass Is molded Into
bricks and dried In the sun or In kilns,
when It Is ready for use. Tho sumo in
