to this paste are fixed the "smalts" CT
which the mosaic picture Is formed They
are a mixed species of opaque, vitrified
glass, partaking of the nature of stone ard
glass. and composed of a variety of min
erals and materials, colored, for the most
part, with different metallic oxides.
OF these, no fewer than LOO different
shades are in use. They are manufactured
in Rome. in the form of long slender rods
like wires, Of various degrees Of thickness,
and are cut into pieces of the requisite
sizes, from the smallest pin point to an
inch. When the picture is completely fin
ished, and the cement thoroughly dried, 1t
Is highly polished. Mosaic, though an an
cient art, Is not merely revived, but an
improved one. The Romans only used col
ored marbles at first. or natural stones.
In its composition. which admitted of little
variety; but the invention of ''smalts" has
given it a wider range, and made the imi-
tation OF painting far closer. The mosaic
work at Florence Is totally different from
this, being merely inlaying in "pietre
dure." or natural precious stones, of every
variety, which forms beautiful and very
costly limitations of shells, flowers. figures.
etc., but bears no sfmilitude to painting.

ABSURD DECORATIONS.
The Attempt to Utilize All Sorts of
Trash.

The Attempt to Utilize All Sorts of
Trash.
From the New York Herald.
There have been numerous articles writ
ten on the troubles and trials of people who
try to make home happy by making their
own furniture out of barrels and soap
boxes, ard who have found that old silk
hats do not make satisfactory scrap bas-
kets, and that all sorts of old trash gilded
or brOnZed and hung on the walls, did not
produce the same results as anticipated.
1t would seem almost incredible, If it lad
not already been proved, the amount Of
money which is wasted in trying to ac-
complish these beautiful and wonderful eff
fects out of nothing at all. but the saddest
case of misplaced confidence often heard Of
has lately come to light. Some months
since, the exact date is unknown, q very
dreadful fad was started-that of stick
ing old postage stamps on china and COW
ering them with varnish. Quite prettily
shaped vases and plates were changed in
this way-truth does not say decorated.
A lady who Is in her way quite noted
stamp collector was at her dressmaker's
one morning and noticed on the mantel-
piece a vase completely covered with
Siamese stamps. She asked her dressmaker
where she had been able to obtain so many,
and she answered that she had a lot mere
which she would be most happy to give to
her customers. The following day she sent
the stamps and the lady had them valued.
They were worth 81 each, which sum, of
course, she forwarded at once to the dress
maker, who, however, found small conso-
lation in the amount, for, upon counting up
the number of stamps which were firmly
embedded in or on the vase, the value
thereof was over 800. AS 1t was quite i'm
possible to take them off again. so firmly
were they fastened by the new process,
the best that can be done is to regard that
vase as a thing of great value.

From the Chicago Daily Tribune
Aunty Nancy Garrison came to Chicago
yesterday from Holly Springs, Miss. Aunt
Nancy brought her hair with her, a state
ment which at first blush does not sound
as though it involved any undue exertion
on her part. But when Aunt Nancy binds
her hair about her brow she takes up the
burden Of a days work in carriage. 1t is
kiIky hair-Aunty is a colored woman-
and when let free it falls the five and one
half feet Of it's owners height and stretches
away like distance on the floor. There
are eleven feet of hair as it drops from the
big coil. Take hold Of the end of the mass
and pull it so that the kinks straighten out
and twenty feet Of heavy strands are de-
veloped.
Mrs, Nancy Garrison was born in Ten
nessee somewhere about sixty years ago.
In 1878, after she had moved into Misss-
sippi, she had the yellow fever. AT that
time her hair was foot long. 1t began to
way she tells the story:
Il dreamed dat a woman with brown
skin come to see me. She look at me hard
like and I seen great plaits Of hair on the
shoulders. I get well after while. Who
dat woman was l could not bring her to
reclect. One day walk into a room. My
son say: You rest, l get dinner Then
taye a vision. A voice say: You are the
woman Then dat reconciled me 1 was
the woman. My hair grow and grow. 1t
was white at first. but then 1T grew darker
and darker until now it is all dark except
the part that I had before the fever A
voice told me: You shall have the plaits
darker than ever you seen.' They go that
way now more every day.
II wear snappers-bangs some people call
'em" With this Aunt Nancy pulled free a
dozen locks and brought them down over
her forehead. They reached half way to
tho waist. Mrs. Garrison has not left her
hi me before since her hair began to grow.

A Society WOInan's Device.

From the New York Times.
A London society woman, wishing to give
fancy ball recently, was beseged by let
tcrs after her Invitations were out asking
permission to appear in ordinary evening
dress. Alarmed at the prospect OF color
less ball, she automatically replied that
any woman over thirty-five might come in
evening dress. The ball was a brilliant
affair, and every woman came in a charac-
ter gown!
Which story is matched by one told at q
Woman's club last week of the efforts of q
good clergyman to interest the women OF
his flock in some church movement. Il will
ask" said he, at the close of the sermon.
"the elderly ladies of the congregation to
remain few minutes after the benedic-
ton" He found himself alone with one
wornan-the mother Of the teller Of the
story, who, at thirty-five, was willing to
sacrifice herself for the sake of her pastor,
and remained to point out to him his griev-
Gus bturder. The same notice, differently
uorded, the following Sunday, secured 9
numerous response.

Lord Francis Pelham Clinton Hope
brother of the Duke of Newcastle and heir
presumptive to the dukedom married, the
| other day. Miss May Yohe, the young
| actress, and this week he has been spend
unromantic precincts of the bankruptcy
court. The proceedings showed that he
badly needs some one to look after him,
| and he ought to be thankful he has now
got clever young woman as a wife, who
will be able to keep him out of the hands
Of the Jews if anybody can, which appears
| to be doubtful. This interesting young
aristocrat came of age in 1887, and during
| the past seven years, although he enjoyed
| an income of $4,000. he has managed to
accumulate debts to the amount of nearly
S250,O0O. This is considered a very fine
performance, of which any British noble

| the Marquis of Hastings, more than gen.
Grafton ago. At first sight it would appear
easy even for young unmarried man,
born In the purple, to live with fair
amount Of comfort upon $4,000 a year.
In fact, Lord Hope declares that he kept
| well within his income as far as regards
actual personal living expenses, but he
says he was handicapped at the start with
the payment of s215,0OO succession duty,
and during the seven years he incurred
So. $50 liabilities on behalf Of others and
paid nearly $4,000 interest to money lend
ers These figures considered quite

have passed out of the bankruptcy court
as a model young man. without a stain
upon either his moral or his business char
acter, had the official registrar been con-
tent to inquire no further; but he, having
no particular reverence for the dukes
brother, had the bad taste to drag into the
light of day betting and gambling debts
to the extent of $35O,OOO for the seven
years, and debts incurred in theatrical
items which pretty we'll Indicate the real
causes Of his lordship's troubles. He
might have pleaded that his theatrical
losses, il heavy, had at least brought him
handsome, clever wife, but he did not do
so, ard his affairs stand adjourned for

CHANCES IN CRAP.
The Odds Are Very Largely Against
the Player.

From the St. Louis GlcbeDemocrat.
Rolling the dice is, of course q game OF
chance If they are honest dice" said Mr..
Morrissey, "and We'll assume it is an hon.
est play. In craps two dice are shot, and
there are ele, en- possible results. You can
throw 2, 3, 4. 5, 6. Z, s. 8. 10, IL and II, and
you can't throw anything else. Now, under
the rules Of the game, If upon your first
throw you make or IL you win. If you
throw neither of these sums, hut turn up
4, 5, 6, s, or 10, you neither win nor lose,
but have another ard another shot until
you either throw a Z. whereupon you lose.
or repeat the first point you threw, where
upon you win. Now, look what a sucker
game it is. There is one throw only by
which you can make 2. two throws by
which you can make 3, three throws sum
up 4, four throws 5, five throws g, six
throws z, five throws s, four throws 8.
three throws 10, two throws IL, and one
throw Il. You understand what I mean,
that there are only that many combinations
of two dice that will bring up those sums.
On your first throw, II you roll or IL, you
win. There are six ways you can roll z,
and two ways you can roll IL, eight in all,
and there are twenty-eight other ways In
which the dice can fall in which you will
not get either or IL, and consequently not
win on your first play. That is, 1T is % to
8, or to 2, that you will not win on the
first dash out of the box, while there are
IN tnOSe tWenty-elgnt throws 1Our possible
ones-one 2, two 3s and one 12-upon which
you lose Immediately. Leave that out OF
the figuring, and take 1t that the odds
against your winning on your first shot are
Z to 3 Say you throw 4. Under the rules
of the game you can go on throwing until
you cast another t. when you win, or z,
whereupon You lose. Whichever comes up
first determines ii. There are three ways
in which you can throw with two dice,
and six ways In which you can throw Z.
Hence il is to 3. or to l, that you will
throw the seven first which loses for you.
If your point was or an on the first
roll, the two best, then, as there are five
ways to roll either of these sums and six
ways. to roll Z. the odds are 9 to against
YOU That is, IL you will lcok at II reas-
onably, and with the figures before you,
when you play craps ii is to 2 that you
will not win on the first roll, and, ao..ord-
ing to your point, from to to 6 to that
you will not win afterward on any other
roll / dent know of any game that looks
Exc a game of chance where the advantage
in the betting is so much against the

For Vestfbuled Street Cars.

From the Rochester Herald.
Assemblyman Wilcox Of Cayuga county
mas introduced into the legislature a bill
requiring street railway companies to have
the front platforms Of all cars propelled
by electricity or cable inclosed or screened
during the months of November, December.
January, February and March, except cars
attached to the rear Of other cars. The
purpose Is to shield the motormen from
wind and storm while in the performance
OF their duty. The bill provides that any
corporation or person operating a car in
violation of the law shall be fined $25 day
for each car so operated.
President Beckley of the Rochester Street
railway Company was asked in regard to
the measure and said: 1--WE have 100 of
