SUBSTITUTE FOR FELT.

A New Material of Which Hattora Have
just Gotten Hold.
Many Of the cheap derby hats that
will be worn on the streets of st. Louis
this spring will be made of new ma
terial of which the hatters have just got
hold. The stuff is called linters 1t is
the short cotton loft on the seed after
the cotton has been ginned by the cot
ton-raiser. He sells his cotton to the
merchant, and the seed to a mill that
makes cotton-seed oil. The miller puts
the seed through another gin, specially
made to clean short cotton from the
seed. In an oil mill OF small capacity
several bales of cotton are ginned from
the seed in this way. The fiber is
broken and very short, and up to few
months ago the mills sold it to stuff
bedding with. Its price was about half
that of average cotton. The negroes in
the South were the buyers generally,
but occasionally the mills would get q
good, big order from concerns that made
pillows and mattresses. Suddenly
somebody found out that it could be
made to initiate felt for cheap hats.
The experiment then of making hats Of
linters was tried on large scale this
winter by New York factory, and the
hats were sold to retailers for introduce
tion very cheaply. The test showed
that the hats stood wear, and the oil
mills were at once called on by the
manufacturers to make contracts for all
the linters they could get off the cot
ton-seed. Now inters has gone away
up in price, and is only few cents q
pound cheaper than cotton. The dis
covery is likely to. have lowering eff
feet upon the kind of derbies which
have sold for three dollars, and in fact
some merchants are already using the
linters derbies as ''leaders'' for their
other goods, selling them at half the
cost of the felt hat-St Louis Globe

A Monster Tombstone.

The largest tombstone in the world
monuments erected to distinguished
persons excepted) is, probably, that Of
the late Henry Scarlett, of Upson Coun-
ty, Ga. Scarlett was very wealthy and
noted for his misanthropic tendencies.
He led the life of a hermit. Why, no
one knew, but it was limited that he
was a victim of disappointed love.
Several years before his death, which
occurred in the spring of 1888, he select
cd a monster bowlder, miniature
mountain of granite, 1O0x250 feet in
dimensions, for tom mbstone, and had it
appropriately lettered by marble OUT
ter. A cave fitted up as roomy tomb
was excavated under the huge bowlder,
Scarlett himself experimenting the
work. After his death, neighbors, rela-
tives and friends carried the remains
and deposited them under the rock &C.
cording to ante-mortum directions, and
to-day the mortal parts of Henry Scar
lett repose under the most gigantic
tombstone in the world.-St. Louis Re-

A Suggestion from Russia.

One would hardly: look to Russia for
new ideas in domestic or social prudence,
but an organization reported in one ot
the cities has suggestion in It. A club
composed of 1875 families has employed
a capable physician BY the year, each
family paying fifty cents q month. The
doctor visits each family regularly, at.
tends all their sickImembers, and gives
them advice as to health and occasional
lectures on hygiene and physiology.
The doctor wouldn't have much show to
get rich out Of it. The notable point is
that it is for the interest OF the doctor
not to have sickness in his list Heis

Charles Habeneck says:
I'm 1857 saw at Madrid, during Holy
Week, The Passion of Our Lord, a
drama in fve acts, and I know not how
many tableaux. The piece was by no
means bad-far from it; and remarked
some beautiful lines and splendid
scenes. Among the latter was one in
which Jesus, before his entry into Je-
rusalem, where he knew that they would
put him to death, asked the permission
of his mother to sacrifice himself fol
humanity. The mother refused, and
Mary Magdalen joined her in en-
treating him to remain. In tears he
disobeyed. Then the scene changed,
and we saw Christ, surrounded by his
apostles, coming into Jerusalem, seated
upon white ass, followed by her little
one. The actor who played the part Of
Christ did it with profound faith. He
seemed to be reciting prayer. As fol
Judas, no wore an immense blonde wig,
which made him look like Louis XIV.
When he appeared upon the scene, the
audience murmured, and, if he had not
committed suicide, believe they would
have killed him. The several scenes o1

Just such pair as ono would expect to

The farmer and his wife offered me a
comfortable rocking chair, and a negro
woman brought me gourd of cold spring
water.
1t struck me after a few words had
been exchanged that there was some
thing wrong in the little household, but
could not see what it was. The man
and woman both had sad faces, and their
hair seemed to be prem aturely white.
Their voices were pleasant but they

shy in the presence of stranger, and
at once proceeded to make myself
agreeable by praising the scenery and
complimenting the place and its sur
roundings.
The woman answered me without en-
thusiasm, and the man was silent, ex-
cept when asked him a direct ques
tion. attempted to make the two take
a mutual interest in the conversation,
but they did not look at each other, and
what was said by one was absolutely
ignored by the other.
Such placid Indifference was depress-

under such conditions, and in few
minutes rose to go. My hosts did not
ask me to remain longer, and / felt that
my visit was unwelcome.

back two or three times. Just as ex-

seated as far away as they could get

looking straight ahead. Evidently they
had not exchanged word concerning

Ali this was so unlike country people

The minuot which Strauss Ii about to
Introduce to the partial exclusion Of his
own wnltz was the first ball dance which
had really worldwide popularity. II
is . slow, dignihed dance, an appro-
pirate product OF tho time and place OF
It's birth. 1t is very old. When Don
Juan d'Austria went incognito from
Brussels to Paris nothing he saw
during his famous trip excited his ad-
miration half somuch % the grace with
which the beautiful Margaret Of Bur.
gundy danced the minuet. Other beaus
and titled dandies of the same period
also put In writing flattering illusions
to the beauties OF this dance. Never
theless' 1t Is exceedingly doubtful that
the mtnuet Of those times was the orig.
inal model OF tho minuet of to-day.
The minuet, which very recently has
appeared In the Partisan salons, was in.
vented by the French ballet master.
Gardel, or rather was evolved by him
from much older dance for the cele-
bration OF the marriage OF King Louis
XIV. "Minuot Of the Quoon" is the
title which tho gallant Gardel gave
to his now dance in honor of
Marie Antoinetto. The figures of
dance OF tho time of Louis XIV. were
utilized by Gardel Us the basis of his
now minuet. The old dance, with
which every court-ball OF Louis XIV.
was opened, consisted mostly therein
that the gentleman and tho lady faced
each other, moved few steps forward
and backward In time with dignifled
and sonorous music, bowed deeply, and
returned to their places. This dance
was called tho "Braule." 1t was suc-
ceeded by tho gavotte, in which "the
gentlemen kissed the bouquet of flow
ers, and with deep bow handed 1t to
his partner" From this gavotte Gardel
derived the minuet. The famous dane
ing-master, Pecourt introduced an i'm
portant innovation by changing the s
figure into tho z figure, which is still
danced. The minuet is tho only dance
which preserves the courtly dignity OF
the old regime, and therefore has ever
been regarded as the most aristocratio
OF dances. Tho most popular of minuet
music is from tho first finale of Mozarts
Don Juan. This music is the model OF
all other music to which the minuet has
been danced of late years.-Berlin

from their place of meeting and had shot
him down like dog within sight Of his

out and carry the dead body of.
"Mary stood like marble statue list
ening to the horrible story.
"God forgive your" "she cried. "'You
have killed my brother, and broken my
heart!
"It was only too true. Mary knowing
how strong Jack was for the Southern
cause had never told him about her
Union brother, but when the young Of
ficer was in the neighborhood the two
had secretly met several times.
Hunter fell on his knees and begged
forgiveness. He offered to kill himself
or do any thing that his wife demanded.
But Mary would not talk. She asked to
be let alone until morning, and locked
herself in her room. Poor Jack roamed
about in the woods all night, and in the
morning returned home, where he found
his wife waiting for him.
MARY looked at the mans haggard
face, and noticed his trembling limbs.
"Jack,' she said, you are as good a
man as ever lived, but you have blighted
my life by your mistake or crime. can
never love you again, but my heart is
full OF pity. Let US live here until God
calls US away. will try to do my duty,
but do not speak to me, for can not
answer you. Here is one kiss for our
old love, and now let us bear our sorrow
in silence until the spell is broken.'"
The Colonel threw himself into a
chair and sighed.
"There is nothing more to tell," he
said. 'Those two unfortunates have
not spoken to each other in twenty-five
years. They are kind and patient, but
l am afraid they will never come to-
gether. Jack was paralyzed just after
his great trouble, and his wife has been
very good to him in her way. Sad story,
isn't it?"-Wallace p. Reed, in Atlanta
