PUTTING 1T TOGETHER.

A DR.. Palmer, Of Biherach, Germany.
has invented n contrivance which il,
said to overcome all imperfections O,
the old ambulance. 1t is u sort OF
litter made in three separate parts.
These parts the inventor intends to be
mad of aluminium, combining light
ness as well as durability, but they can
also be made of iron, bamboo, or other
suitable material. A complete ambu,
lance, or litter, is very quickly formed
by joining three sections together, for
which purpose each part is provided
with intcrlocking automatic fastenings.
On both sides are attached four rings
through which carrying poles are
slipped; this being done. the new field
ambulance is complete. When on the
march all the cumbersome i~nconveni.
ence of the old clumsy affairs is lone
away with. Each man takes n part OF
this new ambulance on his back, carry
Ing it with his knapsack. The pole,
are also divided into three sections and
each part slipped into a socket wheI
not in use. When not needed for actual
use it can be stored in a very littl,
space, about thirty of the new ambu
lances not occupying more room thar
one of the old style.
Another great advantage claimed by
the inventor is the ease with which
these aluminium litters are kept clean

sections of the litter is slipped undo

NEW VAR AMBULANCE

OF HUMANITY.
Is Carried by tho Troops in Small Part
Into Battle, Where L. Can BE Easily
Tut Together.

The war department in Washington
will receive from the agent of the
Society of the Red Cross, in Berlin, {,
very interesting model OF u new field
ambulance, which promises to work
complete change in the ones used Al
present. The extraordinary progress
made in the improvements Of modern
frearms, the introdu ction of smokeles
powder, with more rapid firing, nnt
perhaps, most of all, the ever presen'
fear of II sudden war, all has had a ten
dency to keep the members of the Ret
Cross on the abort for perfecting thei
equipment. The rapid mobilization
and transportation of large bodies O
men is of the greatest importance il
modern warfare, and everything els
is secondary to this great principle
This naturally embraces all that il
used in IA field hospital In the way o.
sanitary appliances. The most i'm
portant part of Il Red Cross outfit is tn.
field ambulance. This, in order to full
ly answer it's purpose, must be con
venient and easily transportable from
one place to another. 1t is necessary
that it be kept in tirst-class condition
SO as 10 be ready for instant use under
all circumstances, in all kinds OF
weather and in all localities. The field
a~mbulances that have been and are
being used ut the present time are
heavy and clumsy, it being necessary
to place them on army wagons wheI
taking the field. Another objection ts
the old style of ambulance is that they
all are made of wood and canvas and
thus greatly liable to destruction from
outside influences as well as being very
difficult to cleanse in haste. The pick.
ing up and receiving of wounded with,
in the line of fire is also coupled witt,
great difficulty and is in narrow
trenches practically impossible.

ADVENTURE OF A CAT,
Tho Simple Facts of Its First and Only
Ride on "a Dumb Waiter.

MIR. David BaiIlic, formerly of Edin.
burgh, has two Maltese cats. Punch and
Dynamite. Dynamite, Us might be in.
fcrred from his name. is alert and ac-
robatic. Punch has u soporiiic temper
ament, and spends most of his time find
ing soft and cosey places and lying in
them. Mr.. Baltic, who speaks Maltese
almost rs we'll as he does Gaelic. and is
emotions of the cats, says they are the
most remarkable pair of felines in New
York. Other folks with animal pets
ind babies have been known to express
.hc same sentiment about them.
Since an adventure several weeks ago
Punch has not been so sleepy rs he used
to be. He saw the door of the dumb
waiter shaft open, with the waiter itself,
cooking particularly snug and inviting,
standing at the door. He decided that
The waiter was just the proper size for a
luxurious cats bedchamber, SO he leapcd
softly in and went to sleep as quick as
Dickens fat boy. That was about an
aour before daylight. An early and
vigorous butcher boy came into the
basement and gave the dumb waiter
rope a ynnk that startled Punch out Of
his slumber and set him %quivering with
Fear as the dumb waiter bumped and
rattled down the shaft. Punch was
never SO wide awake in his life. He
had gone down three floors, or from
Inc fifth to the second, when he noticed

open shaft door Of the kitchen on the
second floor. Punchlnade u blind, wild
cap for the light.
1t happened that an Irish seavant gin
was sitting on a chair with her back to
the dumb waiter wiping the sleep out OF
her eyes. Punch did not see her when
be made his frantic leap for liberty.
He landed in her back hair, and she
omitted a yell that frightened Punch
more than his experience in the dumb
Eaiter. He let go the girls hair in a
fifty and dashed through the fiat like a
inad cat. waking everybody in his
uight. When he reached tho parlor he
crouched in Il corner and waited for de-
rslepments.' As the house did not tunl-
kle down he began to recover his com
posare and to mediate on the uncer.
te!nty of dumb walters and servant
girls. He was discovered later in the
morning by the mistress of the fiat, who
recognized him as one of Mr.. Baillie's
Maltese pets, and sent him up stairs.

sews ON buttons for a Living.

Speaking about odd ways of making
n living" said y lawyer. 81 can tell you
a new one, and it is followed by u man
who says he does fairly well. He goes
from office to Office all over the city and
does nothing but sew on buttons for men
of all kinds. bachelors and boys and
married men, too. It's q nickel u but
ton, and no generally furnishes the but
ton, though In most cases he says the
men have the buttons with them. As
he enters an office his usual s~alutation
is, Buttons, buttons, any buttons off,
and on either coat, vest or trousers
every man is pretty sure to find q but
ton off or nearly ready to come off.
The genius carries his pockets full-of
buttons of every kind and class, and he
seldom fails to match. His waxed
threads, needles and scissors are ready
at hand, and u man need not miss five
minutes from his duties to be nicely re-
paired as far as buttons are concerned.
The shrewd button scwcr is not very
communicative, but it's a bad day when
he fails to sew on twenty buttons. In
one Office ut least, where six or eight
are %employed:4f k.saw him gather 40

A correspondent Of the Chicago
Record hearing a woman saying "Girls

sentiment from the lips of one Nick
Taylor of Sykeston, N. d.
Taylor, so runs the story, once
yearned for the bonds of matrimony.
AT that time women were rs scarce in.
Sykeston as playing cards in a baptist
congregation. Fate, however, in q
spirit of irony, waited a copy of q
matrimonial paper into Nick's vicinity
He at once addressed a tender missive
to an advertiser in the "~personal"
column, signing his name" John Smith"
After a short correspondence it was ar
ranged that Arethusa-the lady in the
c~ase-should come to Sykeston. Nick
was to meet her at the train and, to
avoid mistakes, was to wear n red rib
bon in his b%utton-hole which would
match another on Arethusa's umbrella.
After entering into this agreement,
however, Nick was rent with conflict
ing emotions. AS the duy and the
hour drew near when Arethusa was to
make her appearance, his courage left
him completely. Dropping into 1.-THE

Jerry Simmons, who was known ns tho

piled Jerry with liquor until his

Then Nick softly removed the ribbon
from his buttonhole and tied it in

ihim across the street to the depot and
seated him astride a nail keg on the
platform. After this Nick took up q

RICH ANp SOFT VOICES.


DIR. Antonin Dvorak, director of tbs
National Conservatory of Music OF
America. has become deeply interested
in the cultivation of the negro voice,
says the N. Y. SIN. For several
months past he has conducted n class of
co!ored boys and girls, with the object
not only of teaching them the element
airy principles of music, but of studying
the range, the power, and the possible
ties of their voices. His pupils have Ell.
tered enthusiastically into the spirit of
the work, and if a critical listener may
find fault with the technique or the art
of their c%horuses, he could find nothing
to c~riticise in the vim and the mtelli.
gence of their singing. When asked
how he had succeeded thus far and what
observations he had made, Dr.. Dyorak
said:
Sven the short term of tuition that
we have given coloied pupils entities lis
to express Il favorable opinion Of their
possibilities. In general they have rich
and soft, natural voices. The cultiva.
ton of their voices, however, has been
of such a short period as compared with
that of the whites that it is impossible
to say accurately what we will be able
to bring them to. We can only Judge
by their present Status, that is, their
natural voice and temperament. but |
think We have Il right to expect excel
lent results. 1t docs not require voice
and ear only to sing well, but Il ileces-
sary requisite is the snnguine .cmpera-
ment and the vivid, easily affected, and
susceptible Imagination. | have notno-
ticcd these qualities so much in the
voices of the white pupils as in those OF
the colorcd ones. In volume their
voice is superior to that of the whites,
aud in timbre it is equal if not superior.
Colored people have certainly every
requisite to make good opera singers.
Their fondness of show, their vanity.
love of color, and mimicry make them
natural actors"
DR.. Dvorak said that NE would like to
see II genuine old-fashioncd colored
minstrel show-not of the burnt cork
variety, but genuine darkies, who, with
out any knowledge of musical art or
stage effects, sing and dance rs their
forcfnthers did.
Mrs. J%eaunettc M. Thurbcr, the pres
ident of the conservatory, said: ut is
one of the most delightful things in the
world to watch our colored class ut
work. The amount of enthusiasm
which they throw into their singing is
