The arotto of csrvants..

Within few years the Spanish govern.
ment has placed commemorative tablet
at the entrance of the grotto where Ger
vantes, the author of "Don Quixote," and
his companions in slavery hid themselves.
1t is on the side of the hill of HANNA,
about three miles south of Algiers, in a
picturesque situation and surrounded by
an inpenetrable thicket.
Cervantes was taken prisoner in 1875
by Barbary corsairs, and fell into the
hands OF the renegade Albanian Deli
Mani. Cervantes and his companions
escaped from Deli Mani, but could not
just then escape from the country. A
brother Of Cervantes was ransomed in 1877,
and promised the captives to send frigate
from Valencia or the Balearic isles which
should touch at point of the shore agreed
upon and rescue them by force or strata
gem.
The place where they took refuge was
near the seashore. A gardener named
Juan, under the direction of Cervantes,
secretly cut out cave, in which the fifteen
Christian prisoners hid themselves. Juan
watched the neighborhood and allowed no
oiio W dPplOaCu IuS CdNelyi anu dnOGuCI
slave brought food to the captives, who
dared leave their hiding place only at night.
After eight days, during which Cervantes
watched the sea, he saw the frigate which
had come to rescue them. That evening
the frigate approached the land, but fisher
men gave the alarm, and so many people
assembled that the captain was obliged to
go to sea again. He made second attempt
a little later, but unfortunately was cap
tured.
The day after the frigate was taken the
captives were betrayed Cervantees was
sent to the convicts' prison, and little
later, just as he was about to be sent to
Constantinople, where the possibility of
rescue would be lost forever, he was ran
somed,-Youth's Companion.

favorite device with small bonnets Ia to
cut straight into the flaring brim in front,
turning the two corners back like wings.
Bonnet shapes are displayed made of gui-
pure stretched over light wire founda-
tion, and the same process is employed
with beaded and spangled net. These
shapes require very little trimming, but
most Of the other head ccnlrlngs seen ara
overloaded with flowers, fS.hers, lace and
ribbons A very beautiful hat, suitable
for carriage or garden party wear, was
composed of coarse rose colored straw. 1t
had wide brim that was bent becoming
ly and was trimmed with large pink roses
and their leaves Another picturesque hat
was Of fine black straw and was loaded
with curling black ostrich plumes, while
two long ends Of wide black satin ribbon
depended from the back. Some of the pret-
tiest hats are those made Of wide braid in
which cOlored or white chip is woven in
with the straw, either natural or tinted
The blendings are done with remarkably
good taste and when flowers are used as
trimming the effect is charming. Leghorn
flats which seem to never go entirely out
of fashion, are fairly well represented this
season, although they are cclipsed by the
new straws already mentioned. The brim
is always more or less bent and profuse
trimming employed,
Double faced satin ribbon is the milli-
ner's favorite at present and is much soft
er and richer in appearance than MORE,
although the latter is likewise used. A
weave has also been brought out combin-
ing a satin face and moire back.
Bonnet strings are usually over an inch
wide and arc made Of velvet ribbon as a
rule. Small black bonnets composed of a
jet crown, with fr;ll of black lace for
brim, and trimmed With spangled orna.
ment and tiny twist of cherry velvet are
much worn. These little knots of brilliant
velvet are an effective way of enlivening
a black hat, but ribbon cannot be success
fully utilized in the same way, as it at
once assumes a fiat and shabby look when
it is twisted.
A sketch is given Of hat made of black
rice straw 1t is trimmed with spangled
tulle and black ostrich plumes and has
strings of black velvet ribbon. A spray
of flowers is placed at the back of the brim,
resting on the hair JUDO CHOLLET.

What n Modern Gun Can Do.

Unless one is actually brought into busi-
ness relations with the great science of
modern warfare, it is difficult to conceive
Of the terrible power of the latest and larg-
est guns. These engines of destruction,
weighing 10 tons, hurl projectile of solid
steel l6 inches in diameter and nearly
feet long at velocity of 2,OT9 feet second.
When tested, one Of these guns sent a shot
through 20 inches of steel armor, s inches
of iron, 20 feet of oak, feet of granite, II
feet of concrete and feet of buck.
Comparatively locomotive weighing
100000 pounds would have to spin along
the tracks at the rate of 1876 miles an hour
to strike blow equal to that projectile
Think of the damage wrought in a rail
road collision where the train speeds along
at the rate of thirty miles an hour and one
may calculate the destructveness of mod.

The card sharks who gave the Michigan
Central so much trouble are now working
passenger trains OF the Lake Shore road,
ana the company is making an effort to
drive the swindlers from its trains.
Last week the Pennsylvania company
handled on its Chicago lines the greatest
number of passengers OF any week since
the heavy worlds fair travel. Passenger
business with all roads is increasing.
The law of Maryland prohibiting the
use of stoves in passenger cars is now et-
fective and the Baltimore and ONO mas
awarded the contract for fitting up nve
hundred Of its passenger cars TO be heated
by steam.
The Pennsylvania lines are again doing
a heavy business, handling at Indianapolis
last week 317 more loaded cars than In the
week ending Aug. lS, and 6S5 more than
in the corresponding week OF 1873 The
largest gain was with the indianapolis an d
Chicago division.
The Big Four lines proper last week
handled 1877 more loaded cars than in the
week ended Aug Is, and !, 7G5 more loaded
cars than in the corresponding week of
1893 One striking feature is that the in
crease this year is equally divided between
east and west.bound tonnage.
A narrow-guage locomotive, bought at
Pittsburg Pa, for So, 575, was delivered at
Samaca, Colombia, for S3. 595, with $40, 9O4
charges against it, The ironwork for four
cars, costing S494.4S, reached their destina-
tion with bill of Sl,6lO. A turbine wheel
worth S70S, cost, when carried within 15O
miles of Samaca, $S7GO.
The loaded car movement Of the Lake
Erie and Western road last week was the
largest of any week since the present man
agement took hold of the property. There
We're forwarded from Indianapolis 655
loaded cars aud 465 brought in, making a
total of 1,l9O. In any previous week 762
was the highest number the road has
reached at this point. The increase is 100
per cent when compared with the loaded
car movement of the corresponding week
in 1893

New YORK, Aug. 90. 9.--There was a fair
degree of activity at the Stock Exchange
TO-DAY, but the increase of business was at
the expense of values. The temper of
speculation was so bearish that purchase S
by London, estimated at upward of 10, 000
shares, failed to have more than momen-
tary effect on values. Toward the close
the list left off at recovery of Is TO x
from the lowest. The tone was steady in
the final dealings. The total transactions
were 242, ,S74 shares.
