' ' l5; 1‘.“ Bought All the Saltpetre There was in England and Charged the Government Nothing for Bio Services. On the banks of the Brandywine, in Delaware, are the great Dupont Pow- der Mills. Established in 1802 by the French Royalist, Elcuthere T. Dupont de Nemours, who found' republican France an un'congenial home, they have groWn to be the greatest mills in the world for the making of explosives. At the time of the civil war the Duponts were, as they are to-day, powder mak- ers for the United States government. Ii‘lrl861 the secretary of war sent for the Duponts, and La Motte Dupont, one of the heads of the firm, went to Wash ington in reply to the summons. “Are you prepared to furnish a very large amount of gunpowder?” asked the secretary of war. “That depends on our obtaining salt- petre,” was the answer. “The s-a-ltpe- ire of the world is mined in India, of course, under the control of the British government and the markets are in London and Liverpool." The secretary of war was startled. lf England should prove unfriendly dur- ing the course of the war which was opening,v;\the saltpetre market would, of course, be closed to the United States. . . . “The government must buy a large amount at once,” he said. “Excuse me,” said Mr. Dupont, “the United States cannot go into the mar- ket and buy saltpetre at any reasona-p ble prices-indeed, it might not be able tor‘b'uy it“ at all, but the Duponts can get it without exciting comment." "Will you go to England and buy it-- buy all there is?" Mr. Dupont agreed to go, and he and the secretary of war talked a few mo- ments longer; they made a few figures and the powder man was provided with letters of credit on the Rothschilds. On the next steamer he sailed for England and presented himself with letters of— introduction to the Bethe childs. l “Very sorry, Mr. Dupont, your letters of credit have not arrived,” and bowls politely bowed out. ' He next presented letters of introduc- tion. to Baring Brothers, the London correspondents of the Duponts. One of the» firm, a Mr. Archibald, cordially re- ceived the powder manufacturer. “Very happy to meet you, Mr. Du- pont. We have never had the pleasure of_;meeting a. Dupont, although we have lone business with the firm for fifty years." ' "I am very glad to meet you," said the American, “for I am in need of money." ’ "‘We shall be most happy to furnish you with all that you require. About how much will you need?” Mr. Dupont looked meditatively at the floor for a moment, and Mr. Archi- bald looked with some curiosity at his American customer. A homely man was this powder maker; bones, a square chin, covered with a. ._._ thin, uneven bristly beard, spectacles . on his deep, kind eyes; a man who somewhat resembled Lincoln in the . character of his face. Mr. Archibald thought he might want several hun- dred pounds. This American had per- haps found London a. little more ex- pensive than in his western simplicity he had supposed. Mr. Dupont, looking up, said: ,_ “I shall want 500,000 pounds, "and I want it right away.” Mr. Archibald was amazed. Only his British phlegm prevented him exhibit- ing his astonishment. Was this Amer- ican a new Monte Cristo! “By right away, do‘you mean now?" he managed to ask. “I mean in twenty-four hours; is what we call ‘right away” in United States.” “You will pardon me if I consult my partners-~it is a good deal of money." Mr. Dupont admitted that it was a. good deal of money and he took his hat. “By the way, when you send word to my hotel, ask for 'Mr. Jones.’ I am registered under that name.” Before he was out of' bed the next morning Mr. Archibald called. The Barings would let Mr. Dupont have the money. . Mr. Dupont now had money to burn (this is not altogether slang) and he set out to buy saltpetre. He proposed to buy only the large lots, but to buy them all. He went first to Liverpool, and found the saltpetre in the hands of four dealers. He was a “Mr. Jones," .who e‘wanted some saltpetre. , He bought the stock of all the dealers and each man hugged himself with de— light because he had s“d his saltpetre, until he discovered * there was none in the market: 9 2 price had ad- that the vanced; the)" balance of his damning... icky Yankee. This;a lie f saltpetre bought thegrp E». .- to hire ships to" carr‘ ,.. 9" , lca. He found Ameri- can“ 3‘ '5‘ i3. "lverpool which would undertake to transport it, a matter of ' some risk, for saltpetre was contraband of war. . 1 The loading began; everything moved slowly. Mr. Dupont was exasperated at the tedious delays, for all the means of transportation moved deliberately in England. At last the vessels were ready and he informed the harbor master that the ships would sail at high tide that evening. The harbor master found it. impossible to have the papers ready-e it would take two or three days. There was red tape here and‘red tape there. Mr. Dupont was now in a fever of ime patience. Every 'hour increased the danger of the government finding out that all the saltpetre in England was about to go over the sea; another day's delay and the ships might not sail at .pw- ...._ high check I “Three hundred pounds a year." Mr. Dupont looked a! the harbor master attentively; he was a man of over sixty years.'Then he put his hands in his pockets and looked out the office window, which bristled with masts of all nations. Now Mr. Dupont knew his Dumas well, and at that moment he was turning over in his mind the meth- od the Count of Monte Cristo used to rid a garden of dormice which ate his peaches. “I should like to draw a check for three thousand pounds in exchange for the papers,” he said. The ships sailed on the next tide. When Mr. Dupont reported to the secretary of war there was a love feast in the office of the war department. Af— ter the congratulations were over the secretary said: . “How much do we owe you, Mr. Du- pont?” The powder maker named the amount of his expenses, to which he added $15,— 000 to the harbor master. “But what charge do you make for your services in the negotiation?" Then this Franco-American, who might have demanded a princely sum for his extraordinary services, bowed to the secretary and replied: “I have'had‘the distinguished honor of helping the government; I wish noth- ing further.” There is a sequel to this story. When the war was over, Mr. Dupont, realiz- ing the tremendous risk run by the government in relying upon native saltpetre, set himself to inventing an artificial substitute, and hereafter, with mountains of nitrate of soda in Chill. and potash everywhere, the United .States will never be in such straits again. In 1884 this distinguished powder maker fell a. victim to his enthusiasm for his business and while experi- menting with high explosives, was kil- led in an explosion.--New York Trib- une. . HARDTACK BETTER THAN BREAD. Army Food Which Improves Upon Close Acquaintance. “One of the queerest things about new troops is the prejudice against army crackers,” said the major. as he recalled some happenings of the civil war, “but they all get over it in time, and come to understand that the sol- dier’s stomach has no standby like hardtack. Our company had this ten- derfoot notion that fresh or dry bread is better than crackers for soldiers on for march. On one occasion we load- ed up with bread to last for three days. The second day most of it was sour, and the third day it was worse. Be- fore we returned to camp we were crazy for crackers, and we never went back on them after that. “We learned to appreciate lhardtack in the forced march from southern iTennessee to Louisville in 1862. Regu- .lar rations ran out and flour was is- sued instead of crackers. This didn't seem objectionable at first, but when we had to march all day and got our 'rations of flour at midnight, with or- ders to mOVe at 3 a. in., the heavy iswearers came into action. There was no time to cook even flapjacks or sink- ers. and if you attempted to carry flour in the rain you came out at night with a bag of paste. A cast iron stomach could not stand such messes as the soldiers made of the flour. They made dough and baked or half baked it in ashes or on dirty hot stones, and ate so~called biscuits, with the soft, un- baked centers burning lips and throats, and, after they were swallowed, lying like lumps of lead in not overstrong stomachs. The whole division cheered like wild men when we struck the cracker line at West Point, on the 0hio.”———Chicago Inter-Ocean. i l l I Alter Long Years. "Do you remember,” said Miss An- cient Oldgirl to Col. Crabtree, “how when you were a young man you pro posed to me and I rejected you?” “It is one of the happiest recollec tions of my life,” said the Colonel with an air of gallantry. And Miss Oldgirl is still wondering—Puck. THE SONG OF THE BULLET. I peacefully slumbered a thousand years. A thousand years and more.

A rude awakening came one day. ‘55 ‘, One day in the long ago. When the awful fire of hate had set The heart of man aglow. Then was I made a messenger Of misery and death.

Venetian guipure lace and insertion is the trimming on the bap- tiste gown, and a. pretty touch of color is given by the belt and collar band of pale yellow green satin. .. A‘s—k / ,- ' “71%,; l 'A delicate shade of. yellow pink is one of the most favored colors for the silk linings under transparent materials of white, ecru, pale blue and gray. Some of the light India silk gowus are quite as pretty as the musllns, one model dotted over with tiny tea rose buds and lined with pink silk being especially charming. .. ..,-'- m, ‘_ .J A series of broad tucks, sloping to- ward the front to give a. pannier effect without the old time puffiness, is one of the modes of skirt decoration seen on thin gowns. Wide bias folds are sometimes substituted for the tucks, as they can be arranged in the various de- sired forms much more easily. It is evident, too, among the latest gowns, that folds are a decided feature of dress trimming, an example of which is a white crepe de chine, trimmed up to the knees with wide folds of the same stuff put on in waved lines all around. The bodice is similarly deco- rated with bands of Venetian lace be- tween the folds. A contrasting color is sometimes employed for this mode of trimming, white taffeta being used with striking effect over figured fou- The'folds may be put on to lap a. trifle over each other, or separated by their own width with a row of lace insertion between, as you fancy. and still another pretty mode of using them is to head each one with a tiny ruche of chiffon or satin ribbon, bearing a. narrow space between the folds. l-ards.

A Clever Ruse. At Scotch weddings, some years ago. it used to be the custom to batter the hat of the bridegroom at he was leav- ing the house in which the ceremony took place. On one of th0se occasions a newly married couple—relatives of the bridegroom—determined to carry out the Observances of this custom to the letter. The bridvoom heard them discuss- ing their plans, and despatched a mes— senger to the carriage—which stood waiting—with his hat some time we vious to his departure. Then donning the hat of a male relative who had plotted against him—a new silk chim- ney pot of the latest style—he prepare to go out to the carriage. ‘ No sooner had he got to the door than his hat was furiously assaulted, and almost destroyed. He walked out of the house amid the laughter of the bystanders and entered the vehicle; then, taking the battered hat from his head, he threw it into the hands of its proper owner, exclaiming:— “Hey, McDougall, there’s your hat!" and donned his own, amid the cheers of all present. Fancy Grenadines. The fancy. grenadines are lovely this year, as indeed are all the new grena- dines, for never was there such a won- Very elegant, also, are the silk nets, and dif~ Eerent importing houses show different treatment of these handsome textiles. At one establishment the black net is in princesses form, over a. sheath- shaped slip of cherry-red moire. At another noted house the beautiful black not has a foundation of ivory satin with bodice trimmings of white lisse almost covered with black guipure lace sprays and insertions. A third gown is decorated all over with cut jet bow- knots, garlands, arabesques, and scrolls. This gown is made up over nasturtium satin, and «the collar and girdle are of briliant orange velvet. For SlEnder Women. Less of the opaque white fabrics are shown among the season’s patterned transparents than those in cream, canary, and Spanish yellow, willow green, ciel blue, reseda, rose, and vio- let in exquisite timings. In making up these textiles the greater portion show an airy overdress, loose from its gored undershirt, but united at the top, one belt holding both skirts. Less diaphan- ous looking toilets for rather stout woe men show the outside skirt sewed in with each gored breadth of the urn derskirt. The very popular frills and flounces must likewise be eschewed and the narrow ruche substituted; for none but tall, slender women look well in frilled skirts. Rain Water for Blankets. A city housekeeper contrives to have rain water to wash her blankets before putting them away for the summer. She does this by tapping the eaves- pipe, using a large clean barrel to hold the water. It should not be put under during a. shower, but after a steady rain has washed the soot and dirt from the roof, and the water is flowing clean. Nothing is better than this kind of water for the blankets. It is easy to manage their washing at home with a little care. Some housekeepers put them in a. pair a week, but if an odd day towards the latter end of the week is taken, it can all be done at once. The Wasp Pest. This is the moment when in coun- try homes a. little preventive action will be productive of much comfort in relation to the wasp pest. These bel- ligerent little insects have by this time ppeared and located themselves in their nooks in the crevices of piazza- railings and stone,house foundations. In one of the tract-s issued from the Entomological Department at Wash- ington, it is advised to watch when the hole is full at night of the wandering insects and then pour a. generous dose of chloroform into it. This will ex- terminate the colcny at one blow. ________—- The marine lamprey's adhesive pow- er is such that 121 lb. may be raised withouteforcing it to loose its hold.

The “Societal dei Buontemponi,” or the “Society of Jolly Boys,” offered tempting prizes to the owners of the most striking noses in Italy; and scores of competitors who were nasally gifted above their fellows entered the lists. The prizes were awarded at the Dolls Asse restaurant, in the presence of an enthusiasticcrowd. A long poem, ex- tolling the nose as a feature of great importance, was read by the secretary, Signor Brlvio; and the vice-president followed with a learned review of the influence of nos. on human history. The prizes were then awarded. The first prize fell to the lot of For- tunato Micheluti, a vendor, of “wax lights,” whose nose, length and thinness, was an object of envy and despair. It belongs to the pro-Grecian type, and is without a ri- val for inserting into “other people’s business.” The second prize was awarded to a Roman nose of such bold curve and proportions as to make 3 Wellington die of despair. To Mount Pictures. The best thing to use to mount pict- ures is boiled flour paste. It should be entirely free from lumps and made about as thick as boiled starch. In ap- plying it, use a flat brush and also rub the paste smooth in case of any possi« ble lumps. If mucilage or gum-arable and water are used, it should be re- membered that the picture should be moistened on the back before the mu- cilage is applied; otherwise they will dry in blisters. So many good pictures are in circulation it is a pity not to at- tempt the mounting of them in inex- pensive fashion. Passe-partout mount- ings are within the reach of every one, and are a. perfect protection to the picture as well as an effective method of displaying them. Dainty Gray Gown. The gray gowns this year are ex- tremely dainty and handsome. and they appear in every sort of material, from linen, pique, batiste, nun’s veiling, and cashmere, on through the array of at- tractive dress fabrics to crisp..stand- alone taffeta, satin foulard, elepe de chine, moire, faille, and summerxibro- cede. _ X. _ ,, ”x, Watered Silk. The most elegant black gowns just now shown at the importing houses are of very lustrous watered silk, made in princesse style, and trimmed very. elaborately on the bodice portion and,‘ front of the gown with black lace, with girdle and yoke, bretelle or vestcpiece of the finest cut jet. V Parasol- Thls Season. There are-no surprising novelties} in parssols this year. Chiffon is alniost omnipresent, and when this is absent lace is found. There are far are fancy models exhibited than those for utility uses, the only serviceable styles displayed being those of pause; or 0 till: in plain or fancy patterns. ‘ , Alger. of remarkable . and General Miles made preparations""" to send General Wilson’s troops to . Ponce, with a view of throwing them 3“ between Ponce and the enemy and clos- ing in on the latter from both direca tions. ' l He sent word to Captain Higginson‘w“ of the battleship Massachusetts to bear ready to cover the landing to-day. An ,3 officer, accordingly, was sent ashore ' yesterday aflternoon to formally de-. ”1:1 mand the surrender of the port of»: Ponce, three miles from the city. The officer was greatly surprised to' -‘ learn that not only the post but the -‘~’ city of Ponce was ready to oapitulate.‘ The Spanish commandant, J ulison . San Martin, With 1,000 men, without ar- - tillery, had been taken completely by surprise, and on the advice of the Brit- , ish consul, had decided to make no re- » ’ slstance. ‘ ' A force of marines was immediately landed from the Annapolis and the American flag Wes hoisted over the cus— ' ' tom house in the port of Ponce. Dur-. ing the night the Spanish troops retired“ - ‘- from the city and took the road leading to San J u-an. where it is probable that . ”Main General Macias will eventual- ly concentrate all the Spanish forces in the island. a In the morning General Miles estab- ' "f l-ished headquarters at the custom" home and raised the American flag. ‘ Among the prizes found in the har- bor were seventy lighters used in load- ; . ing sugar ships, and those were used instead of cutters to convey the troops ashore, during which operation not a man or animal was injured. ”I When the soldiers reached the wharves along the water front they ‘ were greeted wlth shouts of joy and ‘ cheers by thousands of residents. ‘ There were cries of “Vivan los Amer- icanos!" and “Puerto Rico Libre!" The red shi-rted firemen came down to the, , wharf in a body and cheered lustily. Captain Lyons, with Company K of _: the Sixteenth regiment, immediately marched to the city and established a. provost guard in the municipal build-“j ing. The soldiers were billetted in the“ frescoed and gold decorated room of the" alcade. ' ~' On every hand the greatest satisfac- tion was evidenced. Women adorned, themselves in their brightest gowns- and waved their hands and smiled as ' the troops marched through the streets. The doors of the merchants‘ houseS“ were opened and the whole city pro», sented the appearance of a fete dayn. The poor were especially joyful. .- The city of Ponce is romantic and picturesque, with buildings of old Mooej. rlsh and Spanish architecture. Its- broad plaza, blue, pink and green tint-L ed houses present a. pleasing appear-1‘ ance and its streets are clean and well,- paved. -‘ The inhabitants are mostly native- Porto Ricans, a well defined race re— suiting from a blend of Spanish and original Caribs, with a sprinkling. of foreigners, mostly French and Germans and a few English and Americans. General Henry will effect a. juncture with General Wilson here as soon as possible, and their troops will await the arrival of others on the way. ‘I f“: Ls‘i é .

MILES. Major General Commanding. The Feeling in Madrid. Madrid, Aug. 1.—Marked sadness is visible in ministerial circles, from which it is easily gathered that the an- _ swer from Washington has been hard- er than was hoped. The ministers of the crown are dis- cussing the presldent's reply. : The ministry desires peace absolutely and is thoroughly sincere in the matter, the best proof of which is the ample measures taken to repress any move- men-t on the part of the enemies of peace, that is. the Car-lists. Nothing is published about the reply, and expectation is high. The manner in which the natives u: Porto Rico received the Americans made a. deep impression here. _____..__ .An Open Harbor Now.
