[New York Telegram.] There seems to bepraotioally no limitation to the uses to which paper can be applied. To the long list of artioles intended for personal use and in the smaller details of construction in rolling stock, suoh as wheel, axles, etc., there has been added more extensive application of paper to the needs of everyday life by the building of a hotel oonstruoted of this material. This novel residence, which has jnst been finished, and is situated in Hamburg, has been made entirely of paper boards, whiob, it is said, are of the hardness of wood, but possess an advantage over the latter material in that they are fire proof, this desirable end being effected by inn pregnation with oertaln chemical solutions. The Encyclopedia Brittanioa is the most oomplete reference library the world has ever seen.
