Cocoanut cellulose is new sub stance, and if it possesses the quality claimed for it, England may go back to her wooden walls with safety and beat up her self-destructive rams for old iron. The patentees claim that a ship cannot be sunk by shot or shell if only she had taken the precaution of coming into the fight with this De- culiar tissue as great coat. When a shot, no matter what its dimensions, strikes the side of a frigate the carpen- ter and his mates need not jump to cram in the Old-time plugs, for the cellulose immediately closes, and a drop of water will not enter.

Pictures for the pfagazInes.
IUncle bins New York letter.

lUncIe Bits New York Letter..
Art processes do indeed change radically
Twenty years ago the illustrations for jour
mails and magazines were made by men who
worked regularly on wages. They were
hir ed and treated as mechanics, and they
labored their eight or ten hours a day at
benches on the publishers premises on tasks
set for them methodically. Naturally,
nothing in that system tended to bring out
originality. The pictures were poor enough,
as can be seen by looking back at old files
of the publications. There was wooden
uniformity of barely passable results. The
same usages hold in some establishments,
but complete change has been wrought in
the wo or three concerns whence the best
illustrated periodicals were issued. Hardly
any drawing is done by regular EN- ployes or
in the shops.
The originals of the pictures those not
stolen from some foreign source) are the
conceptions of genuine artists here and there
throughout the country. 1t has come to be
known by these men that striking piece of
work, whether in paint, crsyon, pen and
ink, or what not, can possibly be sold for re-
production by engravers. The products of
the studios are thus submitted in great
numbers, to be paid for if bought, and re-
turned if not available; and the consequence
is that high merit is common, and absolute
genius not wholly absent in the pictorial
prints Of the present day. A growing prac-
tice Is for an author and an artist to COM
bine their talents in making the matter for
a magazine article and then submit the net
result to a publisher, in readiness to be
printed. In these cases q novelty Of idea Is
the quality that gets preference
In examining the art department of q
leading firm found something very like a
public picture gallery, so numerous were
the original works under consideration; and,
as they ranged in size from six inches square
TO as many feet, the uniformed visitor had
to be told that thsy would-or might-bs re-
duced in engraving to the limits Of maya
zine pages. Hardl, any Of the drawings
for til at purpose are done on the small scale,
but are ntrated by photography on the
blocks, to be there cut by the graver,

Serious Accident.

An accident of serious nature hap
pened to Mr.. H. S. Davidson, of the
Government Survey Department, yester-
day afternoon. He was out on the Ma
kiki baseball grounds practicing, and in
throwing ball from the field to first base,
his right arm gave twist, and bone
between the elbow and shoulder snapped
in two. It caused him to fall to the
ground, and he tried several times to
raise his hand, but was unable to do so.
A hack was obtained and he was at once
taken to his rooms on Emma street.
Drs. j. S. and Henri McGrew were sum-
moned and set the broken bone. At a
late hour last evening he was suffering
considerable pain, but doing well. 1t
will probably be six weeks before he can
use the injured arm. The snap OF the
bone was heard all over the field.

The DUDE AND HIS HELLER.
Supper at the Chop House-An Intellect.
uaI After-supper Dialogue.

uA Ater-Supper Dialogue.
brooklyn EagIe.1
Mr. Toots and the Chicken have two inni-
tators in New York. The fashion of going
around town with "heeler" is an old one
and was particularly popular in London
twenty or thirty years ago, when nearly
every blood" among the English nobility
was accompanied around by a pet prize
tighter. The youth who is best known in
New York as a dude and swell is small, ad-
dtcted to the single glass, evening dress,
absinthe, late suppers and ladies of the
ballet. He is an owner Of several horses
that have achieved more or less fame on the
turf, and his manner is blase and careless.
He has, in fact, an enormous faculty for
sitting still and saying nothing. At such
moments he sits and glares compoSedIy at
his "heeler," who lounges carelessly IN front
OF him and chats garrulously upon subjects
or sporting nature. The heller is a large
man and has sincere and honest manner
few nights ago in well-known chop
house the heeler and the dude came to have
some supper. The dude was In evening at
tire and diamond ring of extraordinary
size glistened on the third finger of the left
hand. He ordered golden buck and SUBJ
sequently ate some pigs feet and drank a
large quantity of ale. He is man of rather
weakened constitution. The heeler, square
Jawed, bearded and heavy-browed man, ate
single chop, drank glass of milk and
lighted cigar. Then he leaned back and
looked respectfully at his companion. The
dude screwed a single glass in his eye after
finishing the last of his pigs feet, lighted a
cigarette, leaned back in his chair and
stared for at least ten minutes at the heeler.
Finally, with effort, he said: "Mike,
what do you weigh nowY'
zone hundred and Gighty-six pounds and
. half this morning" said Mike.
"Any fat"
"Not an ounce" said Mike, otis all bone
and muscle"
This dialogue plunged the dude into the
most profound thought. For at least
quarter of an hour he did not say word,
but continued to stare at the man across tn
table. Then with another great effort, he
said:
"Can you lick Sullivanq"
No." said Nike slowly.
"Why can't youp said the dude irritably.
"Coz he is too much for me-" said the
plug, showing the respect in which he held
John L. Sullivan in every line of his ugly
mug.
"Well, you're a fine plum, you are" said
the dude contemptuously. "What good are
you any howe"
The heller did not say anything, but sat
smoking composedly
"Mike," said the dude, after another long
pause, "you make me very weary"
The big man across the table continued to
look at his master calmly, until that young
ster gathered enough energy to decide that
he ought to go home, and together the two
men went out and climbed into cab, which
was waiting for them at the door.

The lat st news from London In that
the situation Of the Rnssia-Af9han
question haA again become very serious
owing to RusSia's increasing her de
mands to such AN e1t-nt that it will be
impossible for England to accept such
terms. VI. DE Giers, the Russian pre-
mier. who is evidently determined to
profit by his recent uecesses in nego-
tiating With the English foreign Office.
has decided not to yield n single iota to
Earl Granville. 1t is COW feared that
Russia has orerstePped the bounds Of
British f~orbearanee. as il is asserted on
high authority that EnSlaEd will never
succumb TO these lat or demands of the
Russian premier. A large number Of
important dispatches passed between the
English and Russian foreign office Sat-
urday and Sunday. All the members Of
the Cabinet remained in London Sunday
awaiting a reply from Russia to the
latest dispatch of Earl Granville. Dis
patches from CronStadt state that the
Russian feet there has been ordered to
prepare Tor war instantly. and that thir-
ty-iwo Russian mvn-Of war have hois:ed
their tiags and put TO sea. It is appar-
cut that the bre.sh IS widening.
II is stated that Russia declines to
subscribe to a distinct and definite OBJ
legation that she will Oh no account adj
vance her forces beyond the country
settled by the joint commission, which
England proposes rs the only stable set
Element. ". De Giers does not express
thu slightest regret for General Kamar-
o0's action. and he even suggests that
General kamarof wonlh have neglected
his duty il he had failed TO attack the
Afgbans.
In the House Of Commons Lord Ran
dolph Churchill, Conservative, asked

entertained that the Bosphorr-Egyp:ian

tween France and England. The situa-
