From the Boston Transcript.
Within few weeks there will be a new
piece of machinery at the Watertown ar
senal, which, when set in motion, will
make the earth shake for many yards
around it. 1t IS a new trip hammer, capa-
BILE of striking blow equal to a weight of
125 tons, and will be the largest trip ham,
mer in New England. Its height is 10 feet
3ls inches. 1t will be supported by two
legs, the distance between which will be 8
feet. The stroke will be 4 feet and inch
es. The machine weighs ten tons and the
hammer three tons. When this hammer is
in position the WATERFOWL arsenal will be
able to forge any piece of steel which will
be required by the United States ordnance
department, and as all articles of ordnance
with the exception of guns, are now made
at WATERFOWL, it is probable that the ham
mer will be in constant use.
The foundation for the immense machine
Is now being laid. hole 8 feet deep has
been dug and in it will be laid a number
of huge pieces of timber 16 feet long and
"a inches square. The timber used in the
foundation cost nearly 81 900. The hammer
will be erected in the blacksmith shop un-
der the direction of the foreman

man. Nothing delighted him so much as
to appear in strange and weird costumes.
When George l condescended to visit his
kingdom of Ireland, Bochsa, who was then
giving concerts in Dublin, appeared in the
ceremony of the royal reception as an an
cient bard of the Druidic time, with a
wreath of shamrocks on his head and wear
ing wig Of long gray hair and a yellow
robe.
He was seated upon platform mounted
upon a wagon that was drawn by six
white horses, and he performed the ma
tional airs of Ireland upon the national in
strument-the harp-which, on this occa-
sion, was the veritable "Clairscach'' said
to have been used by the celebrated King
Brian Boroihme, king of Ireland, which is
now in the museum of Trinity College,
Dublin.
He HypnOtized Her.
This extraordinary parsonage was chosen
by Ann Bishop as her guide, philosopher
and friend" and under his instructions
and influence she became singer of rare
excellence. Her beautiful voice was mod
ulated, her information perfected, and, even
tually, she broke away from the restric-
tons imposed upon her by Sir Henry
Bishop and started on a tour of the world,
under the direction and management of her
teacher, Bochsa, who from the first estab-
lished such com lete control over his pupil
that she became a mere marionette in his
hands.
She sang, as it were, because he willed
her to sing. She left her business as en-
tirely in his hands as if she were child
and he her father. Without him she was
nothing; with him she was great prima
donna. On the few occasions when her
maestro was incapacitated by illness from
filling the conductors chair, and his place
was filled by another, her singing lost its
style, tone and truth of execution. Though
she did not break down so absolutely as

In hats the Kate Greenaway styles are
still in favor. They are always gathered
on to wires and trimmed with lace-edged
frills or bows of ribbon.
Black and red combined are popular for
little girls, and solid colors have almost
driven the mixed effects from the field.

very chic in coat of bright crimson crepe
cloth, which falls straight from the yoke
in accordion pleats, two large box pleats
both front and back, and a deep band of
smoking across the breast giving very
quaint appearance. Satin ribbon bows are
