Springfield will have the only hbrse show held in Ohio this season, and from the number of entries al- -ready received it is apparent that the Ohio owners are taking advan­ tage of it, John L, .Bushnell Will enter five horses, among them the famous ' coach team th a t won first prize oi the Wasbington show last Season. A feature of the,show will be the exhibit of Shetland ponies from tile George Arnett farm. Several tandems and" four-in- h^nds are entered and local teams will be fonnd in this class.'

Sti lath as ISIS the East India com­ pany decided that trade with Japan was not worth cultivating m m n tapestry . "Rooter,” "Bug” and “Fan.” It must, indeed, be admitted in all justice that, although lexicog­ raphers have not as yet devoted their acumen to the subject, there . does exist a nice distinction among the terms “rooter/’ “bug” *and “fan.” Any one may bo a rooter i f hb attends a baseball game only once in a lifetime and yells, A bug, too, need, not be a steady pa­ tron. His chief requirement is abil­ ity to quote data and statistics deal­ ing with averages, games and play­ ers, Hut the fan! He is as far above the others as a mahatma above a eooly, To him baseball is sleep, meat and drink. I t becomes a fetich. Having passed through the stages o f rooter and bug, the soul of a fatt frequently achieves a Hir- vilnft that1 enables him to< express untold passion by a mere eye glint. Again, he may elect to roar, l i e i3 the sublimation of baseball, fervoiy getting out of it all there is in it, Net His Funeral, Airs. Smith repeatedly reminded her husband' that the silver was hers, the furniture WA3 hers, and so on, until poor Smith almost wished he had married a girl.without a pen­ ny,, The other night Mrs. Smith j awoke to hear strange voices in the lower part of the house and, vigor­ ously pnnfhing her husband in t h e : ribs,'called.* “John, get up! There are burglars down hmow!” “Eh Y1 inquired Mr. Smith sleep-.; “Hnrgfara downstairs I” shrieked llr s.

The warp or foundation of the Gobdin tapestry is formed of a ee* x'm of clout woolen threads, which arc stretched upon the loom and axe fixed in pla"C. The weaver then up- plies the wool, which consists of col­ ored threads forming the pattern. Two Idnd^of tapestry were former­ ly made. In the haute lisse tapestry the warp was stretched vertically upon the loom, while m the basso lisse' it was placed horizontally. At present only the haute lisse is-made at the Gpbclin Avorks. Some of the loomB for this kind of tapestry date from the time of Louis HIV., but liave been somewhat improved in more recent times. This type of Trifiers placed about ten'‘“feef "uparf and held in two uprights forming! a frame. The cylinders are m oun ts» ed at the ends in trunnions, which work in wooden sockets so that'the cylinders can turn ,freely. The bearing elides up and down in a groove in the frame, and the roller is turned about by means of a lever. As fo length, the looms vary frdm twelve to twenty-three feet, accord­ ing to the size of the tapestry which, is to be woven. Sometimes several pieces of narrow tapestry can be woVen upon a,single loom of the larger type. When mounting the' ivork upon th e loom the weaver first; sets up the Av^rp of vertical threads," arid each thread is given an extra length of about five feet in excess of the desired length of the tapestry ,. The threads are stretched on the rollers, putting the extra leugth oh the up­ per roller. The threads of the warp are equally spaced, the standard spacing allowing about twenty-five threads:!© the-inch. The tension upon each of the threads is about .seven pounds, -which holds them Well in place. When the warp, has been laid out the.weaver passes a one inch glass tube between the threads so ns to separate the uneven numbered, threads on the outside arid the even threads on the inside. The rod is placed about two feet above the working point. To carry out the. weaving process the weaver takes his place at the back of the loku with the original design •in colors placed- behind him. He re­ peat* the design by making a trac­ ing in ink upon the threads of the Avarp, but this is only to give him the principal points of the design, and the Weaver must be a veritable artist in order to copy faithfully the S ainted, cartoon upon the Canvas. Ce is provided, with a great number of spools or shuttles, each contain­ ing a different colored thread. As the work progresses the finished part of the tapestry is tolled upon the lower cylinder.-“In weaving the larger pieces the worker is almost * entirely concealed from view, *“* I n all the tapestry of the ancient period /h e Avrirp consists' of woolen threads, and this seems to he tho best, for other kinds of thread have been tried without much success. Cotton thread was substituted id *1850 for the avoo I, as i t was claimed to he cheaper and less liable to at­ tack by insects, but in 1890 the .use of wool was resumed, as the advan­ tages claimed for cotton were no t substantiated in practice, and the economy was very small. ' Silk has also been used, bu t without any ad­ vantage.—Scientific American. Origin of th* Jury, The seed of otir present form of trial by jury may be found in a law of Ethelred II., binding the sheriff and twelve prominent thanes to swear tliat they would neither ac­ quit any criminal nor convict any innocent person. In 1116 the jury system was very imperfect, the jurors being essentially, witnesses, distinguishable from the other wit­ nesses only by the oath they were obliged to take. Under Edward I. Witnesses acquainted? with the facts in- question were added to the jury, and finally these became simply Avit- ncsses, AVithout judicial poAver, while the first ceased to be witnesses and became only judges of the testimony given. Centuries wet© to pass, how­ ever, before the complete separation of the functions of juryman and' witness was effected.—■New York American, “XT PAYS TO TRADE IN SPRINGFIELD.” Clothes Store This store is thoroughly cosmopolitan and intended for people of all classes.
