NEW PORTRAITURE.

Fashionable New York Women Take Up
an Interesting Fad.

in 111c .1-.1‘1011.111o feminine bosom.
hall 11.: gth paintings in oils by the
1;. 5': 111 incnt L’aiisian artists and min-
iz‘ituz'cs on ivory are among the meth-
ods of picture making that the rich
VV0111c11 111'. beginning to tire of, and'as
necc. ssit V is the mother of invention,a
VVh031~ new sales of schemes for limn-
ing attmctive faces has been obedient-
11 br ught forth. by the prevailing con-
(7i tion. It was Mrs. Fred Gebhard, the
owner of one of the most perfect pro-
files in America, who first took the
pains to hunt out a little old genius
biddc 11 away ina aback street of Rich-
mond. V a... and iequest him to cut a
big and beautiful cameo of her face.
He made a vc1y effective likeness, in
white on a background of sapphire
blue stone, and when Mrs. Gebhard
had this set about with large diamonds
and wore it as one would a miniature
brooch, every woman who saw it and
could afford the expense went and did
likewise.

Not all women, however, can afford
to have their features chipped out in
agate stone, and a great many of them
are going to the photographers to have
cameo photographs taken. This is a
process brought over from Paris,
where they are just now making, as
well, very exquisite vignette photo-
graphs, the figures in brown or gray
thrown on a polished white surface.
The cameo process is nothing more or
less than a face in clear profile, photo-
g1aphed in strong white lights, against
a block of prepared and polished black
wood.

A new industry, first put forward
under the patronage of Mrs. John
Jacob Astor, has blossomed forth.
This rich young woman, one of the
most prominent and beautiful of New
York’s fashionable matrons, has had
her own sweet face painted with most
exquisite art on six very choice Sevres
plates, that are only used for her
smallest and most select luncheon par—
ties. The plates show Mrs. Astor in
evening dress, tailor dress, reception
gown, skating furs, in a delicate sum-
mer muslin, and in her bridal gown.
It is no secret that the plates cost $150
apiece, and were made in France.

Mrs. Potter Palmer has given to an
American girl the valuable order of
decorating half a dozen plates, much
like those of Mrs. Astor, while Mrs.
Sloane of New York is having her
likeness transferred to six plates for
use at small breakfasts. These plates
are all of fine American china, and the
feminine artist who is decorating them
is going to show Mrs. Sloane in
skating, bicycling, golfing, driving, rid-
ing, fishing and yachting dress.

It has remained, however, for Mrs.
Oliver Belmont to lead all the rest in
portraiture of an original, beautiful,
and the most expensive sort known on
this side of the water. Only the bean—
tiful but extravagant Queen of Italy
has anything to show like the huge
window of stained glass that fits into
the space at the head of the stairs in
Mrs. Belmont’s New York house. This
window, fourteen feet high by eight
broad, looks toward the west, and
every one who enters the hall of the
house cannot fail to look up at this
window through the many colors of
which all the light for the hall comes.

‘In a framework of marvellous glass

roses the mistress of the - manSion
stands, arrayed in the most gorgeous
yellow brocaded satin, wearing her
famous turquoise tiara, necklace, and
brooches. The window was designed
and the glasswork done by American
artists. and the crystal pieces of glow-
ing color and many degrees of thick-
ness .are put together in a framework
of silver instead of lead. It required
nearly two years to complete the work
and no one. save the present owner
and the maker of the window, knows
the price that was paid for it. At some
points in the decoration genuine jeWels
are set with the glass, and at night a
heavy iron door closes at the back of
the window. which, by cunningly ar
ranged electric lights, is softly illumi-
nated—New York Sun.

The Deadly Upas Tree.

Most people have at least heard the
story of the deadly upas tree of Java,
of which it was at one time said that
to merely approach. it was certain
death. This story was treated as an
absolute fable, but now it seems as if
there was actually some basis of real
fact for it.

The upas tree is a real tree and a
very big one. In the old trees the
bark is over an inch thick and full of
a thick, milky juice, the merest touch
of which upon the skin produces a
most painful and irritating rash.

What ismore. a gas arises from this
juice, which has a most poisonous ef-
fect upon any one near it. It is some-
times used by the natives for satisfy—
ing private revenge, for a cup of it hid-
den in the room of a sleeper produces
stupor and eventually death—Golden
Days.

smcmc INTO THE. PHONOGRAPH.

The Young Woman \V’liom People All
Over the \l'orld Listen 10."

Miss Estella Louise Mann is a pretty
young woman of this city who makes
her living singing into the phonograph.
She used to be a concert soloist, but
now it pays her to go up into the re.
cording-room of the phonograph com?
pany and “talk” into the machine scv~
eral hours every day. Miss Mann liken
it, and is so used to it that the five big
horns of the receiver seem like old and
appreciative friends to her now.

It is not a very cheerful outlook to
stand and sing with all your might and
all your best talent and technique into
several hollow tubes with reverberat
ing sides and not to face a responsive
eye 01' car. Yet that is what this young
person is fond of doing every day, and
people all over the world afterward lis-
ten to her.

Miss Mann began some time ago, and
has grown to be quite an expert in her
art, for it takes especial art to sing in
this ~ extraordinary fashion to this
dumb audience. There are all sorts of
bothering technical whys and where-
fores in this business, but the main
thing is that the tones have to be more
forceful and higher. It is no easy
thing to be able to fill without a falter
or false note all five instruments. for

 

. a mistake and the whole thing; has to

be done over again. It is something
of a strain on the strongest tones to
throw them into this hungry set of re-
ceivers, that are waiting to snatch and
carry them, just as they heard them,
across continents if need be.

You have to have a fine voice that
has captivated audiences, or the pho-
nograph is not going to be anxious
to reproduce it. Miss Mann was soloist
for Sousa’s Band for some time. and
studied in the College of Cincinnati un-
der Prof. Tino Mattioli, and won a
gold medal and certificate.

Miss Mann sings for the “1111111115; ma.
chine” the most classical music—-
“Falka,” “The Barber of Seville,”
Italian and Latin music and sacred
songs. “The Huguenots” is one of her
favorite selections, and she sings one
hundred and fifteen songs, thirty ope
as and ever so much that she calls
“just practice.”——New York Journal.

EUROPEAN BURl'AL CUSTOMS.

The Dead Never Arrayed in the Ordinary
Clothing.

“Until I came to this country,” said
an attache of a European legation to
a Washington Star reporter, “I never
knew or had never heard“ of the cus—
tom which prevails in this country of
dressing the dead in the ordinary
clothing. The custom therefore strikes
a foreigner as very peculiar. Through-
out Europe the custom is to dress the
dead in what is called the ‘dead gown,’
a loose gown, or habit, as it is called
in some places. This is generally inex-
pensive, though, of course, there are
some exceptions, and in these the
gowns are often very costly. The
comparatively inexpensive gown, how-
ever, prevails. Marie Teresa, the wife
of the King of Austria, according to
the legends, made with her own hands
the gown in which the King was bur-
ied. She also cut off her hair with her
own hands to show to the world that
she was a widow. In many instances
old ladies have their dead gowns made
up for years before they are called
upon to use them. I found the same
custom prevails in Ireland and else-
where. It is a. matter that no one
should criticise, from the nature and
sacredness of it, but I am sure the or-
dinary European will never make any
change in this respect, and the dead
gown will always remain in use.”

 

 

The Queen and Lady Millnis.

It is related that, when Sir John Mi~
lais fell ill, the queen sent the princess
Louise to the dying man to inquire
what favor she could accord him that
could alleviate his sorrow, if not his
pain. Sir John thereupon called for his
writing tablet and inscribed upon it
the words, “I should like the queen to
see my wife.” Then the queen broke
through her iron rule not to receive
any woman “hose maniage tie had

A characteristic anecdote illustrates
his cruel disposition, which provoked
him to inflict pain even on a friend.

An artist who frequented Carly-le’s
house painted a picture of him in his
dressing gown, smoking a pipe by the
fireside, and Mrs. Carlyle in an arm'-
chair sitting opposite him. The pic-
ture was hung at one of the 'Royal
Academy’s exhibitions, and, though
not a striking work of art, was pur-
chased by Lord Ashburton, Carlyle’s
iriend, for £500.

The delighted artist hurried off to
the Carlyles, expecting congratulations
on the sale and some manifestations of
pleasure on their part at having such a.
value set on a. picture of themselves
and their domestic interior. He deliv-
ered the glad tidings, but all the re-
sponse he received from Carlyle was:

“Well in my opinion £500 was just
£495 too much."—Yo-uth’s Compan-
1on.

THE PROLIFIC LIFE OF ALASKA.

Not. Entirely the Desolate Region We
Have Imagined.

John Muir, who has summered and
wintered the Alaskan lands, towards
which all men’s eyes and many men’s
feet are now turning, says in the At—
lantic Monthly: Nowhere on my trav-
sls so far have I seen so much warm-
blooded rejoicing life as in this grand
Arctic reservation by so many regarded
as desolate. Not only are there whales
in abundance along the shores, and in;
numerable seals, walruses and white
bears, but great herds of fat reindeer
on the tundras, and wild sheep, foxes,
hares, lemmings, whistling marmots
and birds. Perhaps more birds are
born here than in any other region of
equal extent on the continent. Not on-
ly do strong-winged hawks, eagles and
waterfowls, to whom the length of the
continent is only a pleasant excursion,
come up here every summer in great
numbers, but also many short-winged
warblers, thrushes and finches, to rear
their young in safety, reinforce the
plant bloom with their plumage, and
sweeten the wilderness with song, fly-
ing all the way, some of them from
Florida, Mexico and Central America.

One of the Kniscr’s Jokes.

There are many good anecdotes
about the German Emperor, and it
must be owned that they all prove the
Kaiser to have no small amount of
humor. The following, which comes
from Herr Ehlers, the traveler, is
smarter than most. The Emperor and
Ehlers were college chums from Bonn,
and the Emperor never forgot his old
fellow student. At Bonn, on spec1al
occasions, the different corps used to
drink to one another, and the follow-
ing set form was always used: The
president of the Palatio corps raises
his glass, saying: “I have the great
honor and pleasure to empty my glass
in drinking to the corps of Borussiai"
The president of the latter corps then
replies: “The corps thanks and
drinks.” On the birth of one of the
sons of the Emperor Ehlers telegraph-
ed him: “I have the great honor and
pleasure to empty my glass in drink-
ing to the youngest Hohenzollern.”
The Emperor promptly wired back;
“The youngest Hohenzollern thanks
and drinks.”——Chicago Inter-Ocean.

 

Need of Cover During Sleep.

The reason that it is necessary to be
well covered while sleeping is that
when the body lies down it is the in-
tent‘ on of nature that it should rest,
and the heart especially should be re-
liev ed of its regular work temporarily.
So that organ makes ten strokes a
minute less than when the body is in
an upright posture. This means 600
strokes in sixty minutes. Therefore,
in the eight hours that a man usually
spendos in takirig his night’s rest the
heart is saved nearly 5000 strokes. As
it pumps 6 ounces of blood with each
stroke, it lifts 30,000 ounces less of
blood in this night session than it
would during the day, when a man is
usually in an upright position. 1‘:on
the body is dependent for its VV '111111‘1
on the vigor of the circulation, and as
the blood flows so much more slowty
through the veins when one is
down the warmth lost. in the recur-1.:
circulation must be sup-plied by extra
coverings.

 

Dean Liddell and 'rllllflkt'l‘q} .

Thackeray and the late Dean Lid/loll
were boys together at the famous Char—
terhouse school, and they sat next to
each other in the form, the boys of
which were called the “Emeriti.” No
one was promoted from this form who
could not repeat. from memory the
logues and the Georgics. This feat w as
accomplished by Liddell, but not by
Thackeray. In giving these reminis-
cences some years ago at the speech
day of the Oxford Boys' High School,
Dr. Liddell added that Thackeray lac-
cused him later of having been the
LObbin who wrote his Latin verses for
him, an impeachment the Dean would
not own. though, he admitted that
Thackeray could not have written them
l himself.—~Ne’w York Tribune

trict south of James Bay, a region as

the director of the Geological Survey.
said: “Moose Bay is in a latitude
further south than London, and the
northern portion of Hudson‘s Bay is
about the some latitude as that of the
north of Scotland. The bay does not

best passage to the Yukon region. it is
certainly the natural route to the great

the valleys and fine specimens of gold-
bearing quartz have been brought in
by the survey party. It is stated that
the soil observed is rich and product-
ive, and that scores of millions of
acres offer profitable stock-raising and

DISEASES OF JEWELS.
Pearls and Opals the Most Tender and
Easily Efi‘ected Stones.

Although it may seem odd, it is no
less true, that the most precious gems
are subject to various diseases, whiéh
frequently destroy their luster and
beauty. says an exchange. '

One of the most. common diseases of
iewels is an inclination to change their
original color. Although it is gener-
ally believed that emeralds, sapphires
and rubbies are not subject to this
change, recent experiments have estab-
lished the proof that these stones are
liable to fade. ‘Garnets are found to
fade very rapidly, and faded garnets
and rubbies assume a pale and misty
appearance.

Many gems, often without any ap-
parent cause, suddenly become cracked
or seamed, the damage being beyond
repair. Opals, known as the unluck-

‘iest stones, are so sensitive that their

beauty is frequently destroyed by their
owner’s close proximity to an open
tire. The luster of this stone is caused
by the presence of myriads of little fis-
sures which deflect the light into the
characteristic prismatic colors of the
gem. The tiniest of these fissures is
likely at any moment to destroy the

Pearls are subject to countless dis-
eases. A moderate heat is sufficient
to transform them to a heap of ashes,
and if they are accidentally brought
into the proximity of an acid they be-
come irretrievably ruined. They are
easily broken, and when frequently
worn soon lose their lustre—St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.

CURIOUS WEDDING RING CUSTOM.

[n hlalabar One is Put On the Bride-
groom’s Blg'l‘oe.

Many curious customs are practised
in connection with the use of the al—
most universal wedding ring. One of
the strangest is in Malabar, where an
old native custom seats both bride and
bridegroom on a dais, and a relative
washes the feet of the bridegroom with
milk. and puts a silver ring on the
great toe of the right foot. He then
hands a gold ring to his kinsman, and
a necklace and Chaplet of flowers are
put on the bride’s neck and head. _

Modern Greek" peasants exchange a
gold and silver wedding ring, and they
drink wine from the same cup.’ But
the regular ritual of the Creek Church
ordains that solemn betrotlial precedes
the actual marriage, in which are used
a gold and silver wedding ring, blessed
by the piiest, ti 1e gold 1ing being given
to the man, the silver ling to the
woman. The form of the espousal is
then repeated. and the rings are placed
on the right hands, and then exchanged
that no inferiority may be betokened
by the woman wearing the silver ring,
and also to indicate the common own-
ership of property.

An Armenian mother usually selects
her daughter’s husband. After all
business preliminaries are settled be-
tween the families the bridegroom’s
mother, accompanied by a. priest and
two matrons, visits the bride and gives
her a ring in token of espousal, and
with this ring the couple are ultimately
married. Among the fishing communi-
ties very ancient and elaborate rings
are used, and they descend as heir-
looms from generation to generation.
In Japan in marriages arranged be-
tween V‘ery young people the girl al-
ways receives a ring in evidence that
the union is binding.,—Jackson Clarion
