FERDINAND DE LESSBPS.
The Marvellous Man Who is Flying
About the World at ga.
From fhe EDOch

From the Epoch.
NJ, de Lesseps, is about to visit the 18th
mus again The astonishing activity of this
man of SO is never-ending theme for those
who observe the career of the "grand
Frenchman," as Gambetta called him.
Whatever we Americans may think of the
Panama Canal, we must admit that the
promoter of the scheme is one of the most
remarkable men of the age, and one of the
most sympathetic. With Lamartine and
Victor Hugo he is the most universally pop
ular Frenchman of this century.
NJ. de Lesseps gets his wonderful activity
from the paternal side, his father having
been one of those sorightly Marseillaise who
never keep still long while at time His
mother was Catalonian, and on her side
he inherits his deliberative qualities Most
persons who have general idea of NJ. de
Lesseps' career think he is an engineer, and
ignore that he began life as a diplomatist.
To be sure he quilted the diplomatic service
in l849, so the present generation may be
excused for not remembering that before
digging canals ne was promoter OF peace
on land. NJ de Lesseps' father was also
diplomatist, and at tue beginning of the
century visited America for the purpose of
negotiating a commercial treaty between
France and our country.
To see this distinguished looking and alert
gentleman on the boulevard, or galloping
along on horseback, accompanied by seven
or eight of his children, no one would ever
suppose that he was in his SD year, and that
he had had eleven children by his second
wife, whom he married on the day the Suez
canal was inaugurated. A few weeks ago
some of the numerous enemies of the
Panama scheme started the report of NJ. de
Lesseps' death. To friend who called at
the house to learn the truth of this rumor
the celebrated Frenchman replied: "Some
good souls have said that | was dead; you
see am still alive. Others have pretended
that my leg is broken. If those who started
this story will come and see me l will prove
to them by a well-known movement that
my leg is in very good condition"
NJ. de Lesseps lives in the Avenue Mon
taigne in a spacious hotel that he bought
three years ago from the Princess de Beau
veau. On the day of his marriage in 1852
his father in-law gave him 100000. to in
vest, not knowing himself where best to
place them for his daughters benefit. At
that moment the shares were worth 250f.,
and faith in the future of the canal was not
very strong. M. de Lesseps put the 100000
into Suez stock, and in 1885 they had pro-
duced 800, OO0f. With this he bought the
hotel for Nine. de Lesseps.

passes on to the bleaching trough. 1t is this
gun cotton which gives it its explosive ma

"Most of the water having been got rid
of by means of strainer, the pulp is mixed
with from 20 to 40 per cent. of it's weight of

are rolled in heated rollers and come out in

You may be sure no matches were ever

who owned it owned the factory where it

JUSTICE DUFFY CONSIDERS THE

And Threatens to Send Mr.. Thompson

And Threatens to Send Mr.. Thompson
to Help Bury Other Paupers.
From the Ne,o York Sta.
Katharine H. Thompson of Tooth street
and Tenth avenue appeared before Justice
Duffy in the Harlem Police Court yester7
day morning and charged her husband,
Frank G. H. Thompson, with abandonment
Mrs. Thompson was accompanied by an
elderly friend, who informed the Justice
that Thompson had inherited a fortune, and
that the only work he had ever done had
had been to devise methods of spending his
money, and that he had now come to the
end of his rope, aud was doubtless telling
the truth when he said he had no money to
give his wife Judge Duffy turned to the
de endant. Thompson is a self-possesSed
young man, with regular features, and a
light brown moustache. He was dressed in
the latest mode. Throughput the lecture
which followed his face was immovable
No change in expression or frightening of
color showed that he cared a copper for
what Justice Duffy could say. Judge Duffy
began by telling HIM that he ought to be
ashamed of himself. and then asked his oc-
cuuation.
Il sell wines on commission" he replied.
There is money to my credit now with my
house, but | can't draw my commission I'M
til the bills are paid
"Howmuch money did you inherit! 2" asked
the Judge
81 don't know exactly" Thompson an
swered, but altogether it was something
over 500, 000"
Then Judge Duffy launched into discus
sion of the evils which follow when young
man grows up without being obliged to
work
Sometimes" he said, "when / walk
down Fifth avenue and see the dudes gaping
out of club windows, wish there was law
to compel men to work There must be
100000 young men in this city who have
been ruined by inheriting money. Now,
your wife is good woman. | can see that
by just looking at her. Here you have de-
serted her and your children, and spent your
Inheritance in riotOus living, like the prodi
gal son. What do you wish me to do with
him, madam? Shall | send him up for
year, or do you wish him to be releasedF'
Il want to have HIM back" said Mrs.
Thompson. II will try to find something
for him to do"
"A woman ought not to be obliged to find
work for her husband" Numbered the little
Judge. "See here" looking savagely over
his eyeglasses at Thompson, whose face was
absolutely expressionless, ''if you are
brought here again I'll send you up, not to
Blackwell's Island, but to Wards Island
where your business will be to take dead
bodies out of coffins-unpainted collins
and to bury outcasts in paupers graves
That will hardly be the occupation suited
to your tastes. Now gop

Handsome Africans.

The Bangalas are fine race physically,
being tall, powerful and splendidiy formed
with features by no means of the negro
type; the women are the handsomest | have
seen in Africa. Their dress is scanty, con
sisting for the most part only of waist
cloth for the men and a short kilt of woven
grass for the women; but men of high de-
gree often wear mantles of dressed goat or
other skins. They cicatrize their arms,
shoulders and busts in patterns by cutting
the skin and injecting some irritant. Some
times the result looks very well; but in
other cases the process is not successful, and
raises huge unsightly Jumps of flesh.
The chief of Iboko, when | arrived, was
an old man over S0-his age was reported
by some to be "a, by others 86-who had
lost an eye in battle and possessed so wives
He was over feet in height, with fine,
well-developed figure, and, but for his dirty
white hair and shriveled skin, would have
passed for man Of half of his age. He
was much attached to Capt. Coquilhat
manned "Mwafa" or the Eagle" by the ma
tives), and never undertooA anything with
ont consulting him. The scene just after
our arrival at Bangala, when "Le Roi DIES
Bangalas" being announced as we were all
sitting over our afternoon coffee, Mata
Bwyki entered, wearing his royal hat of
leopard skin and attended by several of his
wives, and embodied Capt. Coquilhat, gold
spangled uniform and all, in an ample
bears hug, was really worth seeing.

A New York Patent to Lessen thu
Strength of Storms at Sea-
From the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune
New York, April S.-Oil as an agent in
quieting raging sea has been recognized
for some time past, but it has never been
put to any practical purpose in this direc-
ton so far as the public has been aware of.
An inventive genius, however, claims to
have mastered the situation. William Meis-
sci. second officer of the steamship Werra
of the North German Lloyds, has invented
an oil racket that throws Gil over very
large area The invention consists of the
rocket proper and an oil cylinder with
an exploding chamber. The cylinder
is fashioned of thin tin, soldered
at bottom and top, and the exploding cham
Der is also made of tin and has hollow
tube reaching into the center of the oil
cylinder filled with powder. The rocket
may be exploded under water the oil being
lighter naturally rising to the surface. In
teresting experiments have been made
proving the practical value of the inven-
ton. In November last, on voyage of
the steamship Vera from New York to
Bremen, Capt. F. Bussius took hand in
ascertaining how much benefit it might be
to navigation. A rocket with an OIL cylin
der inches high and a diameter Of 1B
inches was fired at an angle Of 30
Ii flew | 90 feet in front Of the vessel, and
the cylinder exploded at height of ~ feet
above the water. The oil was distributed
over an area of about 1000 square feet.
Another rocket with 5-inch cyliGder was
fired at an. elevation OF 10. in order make
II explode under water The feat was &C
complshed and the oil rose promptly to tho
surface and was distributed over n vast
area. The rockets have been used in this
port in the way Of experiment, and will, i5
is said, be of great value to life-saving corps
along the coast in calming the waters
between the shore and vessels in distress.
