She was the divorced wife OF Mr..
George Squier. once Minister to
Nicaragua. before she married
Frank Leslie. The Marquis de
Lcnvillc, whom she may or may
not marry now. is tall and pale,
with long ringlets and %ghttcring
polished nails. He is an author
and a poet, and is said to wear
stays, which give him n singular
feminine appearance. That seems
to settle it; if they are married,
the marquis will probably be left
alone in his moonlit beauty to de-
vote himself to his manicure and
wear his stays, while Mrs. Leslie
wears the other things.

A GREAT INVENTION.
The New Machine Which Turns Out Ten
Thousand Postal Notes Day.

N. w. World.l
One of the last official acts of the late
Secretary Folger was the signing of an
order adopting a new system by which the
steel-engraved securities of the Govern
ment are executed on steam rotary press.
Results have been attained by this press
which it was thought impossible to ac-
complish, namely, the printing from steel
plate, curved on a cylinder, which is mixed,
wiped and polished automatically. Until
this invention was perfected, after sixty
years of experimenting, printing from
steel-engraved plates was done on hand
presses. 1t was not possible to turn off
more than 800 sheets on press daily, and
the plate had to be wiped, polished and
mixed after each impression, and two peo-
pie were required to do the work. On the
new press one man can work off 200 to
800 per hour, or 10000 day, the number
being limited only by the skill of the
feeder. 1t has just been adopted for the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing of
the Treasury Department, after three
years trial, although foreign Gov
ernments have used the same
system for several years. Thep press is now
in use in the Government printing Offices in
Berlin, ST. Petersburg and Stockholm. 1t
has been necessary for protection TO carry
on experimenting and construction private
ly, aud the first exhibition was given on
yesterday TO members of the press at the
Homer Lee Bank Note Company's Works,
whore it is now printing United States
postal notes. The steel plate remains fixed
In the press and forms a segmment upon
the surface of the cylinder, to which it
clings and curves. The plate receives the
ink from a series OF rollers which it passes
in its continuous revolution. Opposite this
linking apparatus is the impression cylin-
der, extending over this is the blank sheet
of paper, firmly held by the grippers.
Every third recover the plate arrives op-
posite il and the pressure applied takes
from the engraved lines of the steel plate
the ink which has been deposited and left
there after the surface has been polished
by four ingenionsly -contrived pads that do
the work as well as can be done by the
hands OF a skilled workman. Although
che press weighs nearly ten tons it is so
ell-balanced that il can be run by half
inch belt, OF one-half the width OF an or
dinary sewing machine belt. and st a cost
of only two and one-half cents per day.
