Attorney General Pierrepont has
decided a question of naturalization
submitted him by the Department of
State. The facts briefly are: Mr.. A.
Steinkvauler, Prussian subject by
birth, emigrated to the United States
in 184S, and was naturalized in St.
Louis, 1854. When he returned to
Germany he took with him his son !,
then aged years, born in the United
States. The son is now twenty years
old. The question at issue rose as to
the son owing military service to Ger
many. The Attorney General comes
to the conclusion that the boy has two
nationalities, one natural and the 9TH
er acquired. The father returning to
Germany and resuming his allegiancel
the son partakes of the status of the
father, being a minor and having en-
ioyed the protection of the German
government, he, for the time being, or
until of age, owes military duty, the
obligations being reciprocal; but when
the boy becomes of age he can return
to the United States as an American
citizen, with all the rights and privi-
leges as such, and would even be eli
gible to the Presidency of the United
States.

CreOsote for Preserving Timber.
A recent Washington special

s'The New Orleans and Mobile
Railroad Company has recently
purchased from q firm in New
York 10, 900 barrels of creosote- oil,
to be used for the protection of
their bridge timbers and piling
against the attacks of the marine

transaction illustrates the growth
and progress of new industry in
this country. The teredo is so
destructive to timber on the South
Atlantic and Gulf coasts that piling
is frequently rendered entirely
worthless in the space of eighteen
months. The use of creosote oil
to prevent the attacks and save the
timber has long been practiced in
Europe. and it's efficacy has been
well proved. The New Orleans

Il WAS noticed by those who
watched the course Of the three
balloons Ia their departure yester-
day afternoon from Promontory
Rock that the basket in which Miss
Lizzie Ihling was an occupant was
oscillatiDg from side to side, and
many looked with great concern
lest an accident should befall the
female who had made her first lone
ascension. Their fears were more
than confirmed by the sudden col.
lapse of the balloon and the rapid
descent of the basket. A reporter

story of the accident She had
risen to . height of about 5000
feet, and was 80 impressed with
the beautiful sight disclosed to
view as she glanced at the Park and
turned her eyes toward the city,
that she began taking notes and
writing down her impressions,
when the motion of the balloon
suddenly changed. Before every
thing was perfectly quiet, and the
air ship foated along without any
perceptible jar. Now the balloon
sheered around from its course and
appeared to be trying to go in two
different directions She says: 81

knowing how to account for this

sensation. but thinking the best
course to pursue was to keep quiet

or the valve rope. Almost imme-

A splinter from q STAR.

A few days ago, as lady, who re-
sides in the south part Of the city, was
standing at the gate in front of her
residence, she was startled by a rustling
sound in one of the shade trees, and
instantly afterward heard some heavy
object drop with loud thump on the
plankwalk. On picking up the object
it was found to be about two inches
long and three-quarters Of an inch
thick, and apparently composed of ex-
ceedingfy dense iron, with yellow
blotches that resemble sulphur, and
covered with black substance re-
sembling coal tar. When picked up
it was found to be uncomfortabIy
warm for the hand, and all the cir
cumstances combined led irresistibly
to the conclusion that this little body
is a fragment of larger one, which
was a meteor or aerolite. The sides
of the fragment have the appearance
of having been split from another
body, and present longitudinal stria
in the direction of the fracture. The
ends seem to have been squarely bro
ken off, somewhat like the fracture
made BY the breaking of the mineral
known as galena. This little piece
fell at about 3 clock in the afternoon,
when the sun was shining in a clear
sky, and no doubt the greater body
burst in the extreme upper regions of
the atmosphere in the full blaze of
sunlight, and so escaped observation.
If this had happened during the dark
ness and stiffness OF the night, the
light and noise would no doubt have
attracted attention. A moments in
spection of this fragment is sufficient
to show that it closely resembles, in
every respect. the aerolites that are
known to have fallen in man.. parts of
the world, and that are treasured as
great curiosities in many museums;
the more SO as the substance of which
it is composed resembles. in its chem
ical combinations. no mineral of ter
restrial origin. Wherever these bod
les or fragments are, found, they may
be instantly recognized by this pecu-
liarity, their substance being known
as meteoric iron. A body Of this kind
was found in South America that is
estimated to weigh 10000 pounds; an
other in the Yale College cabinet,
which was found in the Red River
country. weighs 1875 pounds.-Illi-
nOis State journal.

teresting description of the children
Of George I'LL, written by their

Tredwell, who is the widow of DR..
Tredwell, of Mineola, who died in

papers q letter written from Phila

Campbell copied a letter from Miss
Planta, who was then governess in
the family of King George I'LL, de-
scribing the royal children under
her care. The letter begins, "My
Dear Rebecca: I know you love the
King" It contains q simple per-

and three girls in King Georges
family, all of them being praised
for beauty and princely gifts. Mrs.
Tredwell sent the letter to the

patriotic, wise, and, in the best

A sulaan,s sister.

There is q very romantic Incl
dent likely to be connected with
the present visit of the Sultan of
Zanzibar to London. A sister of
his, when young girl, in spite of
the restraints which are thrown
around women in the East, became
acquainted with q young German
clerk in the house of Zanzibar
merchant, and the two fell in love
with each other. In order to be
united with him she escaped to
Alden, and there she was married
and was also babtized. The broth
er of the present Sultan was
then on the throne, and he and her
other relatives were of course in
censed at her elopement, at her
change of religion and her marriage
to Christian, and wholly disowned
her. She accompanied her hus-
band to Europe, and they resided
at Hamburg till he met with an &C
cident, about 1870, which caused
his death. His widow, who had
become a highly educated and
accomplished woman, removed to
Dresden for the education of her
children. Her noble character, her
beauty, and her romantic history
have attracted the attention of
many people of influence in Ger
many, including some members of
the imperial family, and when the
Sultan's visit to England was ar
ranged it was felt that an oppor-
tunity was presented for effecting
reconciliation between her and
the brother from whom she has
been SO long estranged. With q
view to this she has gone to London
and is at present staying in the
house of well known member of
Parliament.
