a Young reporter in the room and the

sword arm, be free to strike.

SACRED WATER" ANALYZED.
A Scientific Examination of Some from q
Well at Mecca.


Well at Mecca.
A scientific analysis has lately been
made in England of the Zem-Zem wa
ter from the sacred well at Mecca,
which according to the Arabs, is the
well that the angel showed to Hagar,
and whose water saved the life of Ish-
mael. After reading the results of this
analysis, one cannot wonder that pill
grims who drink the water are fire.
quently attacked by cholera.
The specimen examined, says the
Youths Companion, which was hermet-
ically sealed in tin bottles forty years
ago by Sir Richard Burton during his
visit to Mecca in the disguise of a der
wish, contained siXty-nine grains of
chlorine to the gallon. Water which
contains so little as nine grains OF
chlorine to the gallon is ordinarily re-
garded as scarcely fit for human con-
sumption.
Moreover, in the case of the Zem-Zem
well, it is believed that the chlorine
originates from the custom of pouring
the water over the pilgrims and allow
ing it to run back into the well. The
sacred water was found TO possess an
extraordinary degree of hardness"
three times as great as that of average
water. 1t also held twenty times as
much ammonia compounds as drinking
water should contain.
No bacteria were discovered, but this
is accounted for by the fact that the
water had remained for so long a time
sealed up in entire darkness. Forty
years of such confinement had COM
pletely sterilized it, but the chemical
imnnrities remained

have made special impression on more

used but one sheet, open at the sides

doubled;" and John Ray, the natural

SILKS FOR AUTUMN.
Some of the New Dress Fabrics For Fall
Wear.

Some of the New Dress Fabrics For Fall
Wear.
| The new sample books of autumn
silks begin with black of various weav-
| ing, as black is at present chosen
/ by women of fashion. and Is always
worn by those of small means. Satins
and peau de sole of satin weave with
demi-lustre are the most reliable plain
black silks. There is tendency. how
ever, to fancy weaving. to stripes and
! figured silks. Thus on peau de sole
grounds are narrow stripes of moire,
resting on n scroll design with the ir-
regular effect of stitching. while an
other has lace-like stripes banded with
noire, and still others have the nacrc
moire effect. Dasnes and dots of
bright satin are between mOire stripes
that are wide apart. Armure and gran
ite weavingS are in new effects in
black silks, and there is armure laine,
which has thick gimp-like cords with
wool filling.
When a bit of color is added the
black silks are in endless variety,
among the prettiest being peau de sole
that is slightly changeable, with some
red, green or bluet woven in it, yet the
black surface preserved. There are
also matte silks in basket or plated
weaving, with white, with emerald,
with cardinal red or mordore
A soft black silk of moderate price
called droguet. or drugget, has ex-
tremely small designs of colors, some
merely lance, or specked with color,
while others have tiny sprigs of bril-
liant hues.
Repped silks with brilliant lustre are
coming into favor again. That called
gros de Londres is revival of the lus-
trous small repped silk worn twenty
years ago, and is figured with small de-
signs, sprigs and dots.
Gros de Tours is a fine soft-fnished
gros grain, heavier than taffeta and
not quite so glossy. 1t comes in dark
colors for the silk gowns that are to be
worn in the street, and in light shades
for evening dresses. A new design in
this silk is a black ground finely
striped across with satin in bronze,
mordore, or betterave, the beet-root
red, then brocaded with tiny little
flowers, as pink rose-buds set stiffiy in
rows. in very quaint style. In light
evening colors sprigs of slight en-
broidery, blossoms of natural colors,
are among the tiny specks of black
which are over the whole surface.
Taffetas are shown again for evening
dresses. with small designs of flowers
brocaded on light ground, and so per-
fectly woven that each seems to have
chine designs in stripes of rosebuds
and other small flowers are new this
season, and there are also plisse taffetas
that look like shirred silks with mar
row putfs between fatty woven stripes
