over the vooiferous disgust of Whistler
that Du Maurier left him out Of the
story of "Trilby," which is now print
ed in book form. For the sake of the
advertising in it Whistler wrote sting.
ingly bitter letter to Du Maurier re-
preaching the author for drawing the
painters likeness in his novel, but now
that the author has cut the painter out
Whistler is really furious Before he
was only pretending to be so. This self
expatriating American is one of the
original celebrities of Europe. Once 1
had occasion to call at his studio in
Chelsea on business connected with the
art exhibit of the American exhibition
in London. He wore velvet coat a
low cut waistooat, unlaundered shirt,
flowing orange necktie, wide trousers
and felt slippers. and spoke only cpl
grams, some of which were good. Later
on 1 expressed wish to look at some
of his work.
"My dear fellow" he exclaimed in
great seeming establishment, "can you
put up with a creation after having
met the creator? The part can never
equal the whole. E"
I dispersed ''that tired feeling" with
a glass of sherry and persuaded him to
show me the pictures. That was what

HON SLATE is MINED.

Ane WONDERFUL skill OF the WOrkmeH IN
Cut 1t Up.
The man0er "A which slate is mined
and cut up for purposes to which it is
applied is 6 process that is known to
only few people in this country, its
principal sources being in upper New
England and eastern Pennsylvania. 1t
is not taken out Of shafts, but it is quar-
fied out of big holes in the earth. Some
time ago, when the writer was at Ban.
gor, Pa, he was invited to go down
into one of these quarries, about 200
feet deep and overland on a rope, but
he declined the invitation, as l think
most inexperienced persons would do.
The slate is blasted out in huge blocks
and is hoisted out by steam and turned
over to the men who know how to re-
duce it to the proper size. Huge blocks
Of it are taken in hand by these work
men, who cut notch into one end of
each Piece. Then they take chisel and
mallet, and they are so skillful in di.
recting their blows that they can split
the blocks of slate in almost any way
they please. If you watch the slab ON
which one of them is working, you will
see little hair line running through it,
and presently the block will fall apart
On either side Of this mark The work
men will make this line go straight
through the middle, or to either corner
just as he likes. donot know just how
he does it, but he invariably accom-
plishes what he sets out to do.
The smaller pieces thus produced are
saken in baud by another set of men,
who split them up into sheets of the
proper thickness for roofing slate. This
they do with long bladed instrument
about the shape of q putty knife, but
many times larger, and if you saw
them do it you would marvel how they
got the sheets only one inch thick and
split it 80 times The usual number of
divisions is 16. These sheets are taken
and cut into squares by machinery.
Wherever there are slate quarries you
will find great many Welshmen, for
the best skaters come from Wales. Boys |
follow the trade of their fathers, and |
there are whole families and settlements
who know no other means Of earning
living. New York Advertiser.

The SmCA;,

1t is the opinion of the true gourmet
that of all marine panfish there is none
to compare with the smelt (Osmerus
mordax). This primary rank is its own
by reason of its delicacy and delicious
flavor, and when fried light brown in
very fine bread crumbs and served with
melted butter there is none that dis.
putes its pre-eminence. Its delightful
flavor, however, as we'll as its peculiar
odof is evanescent. Like the mackersl,
i. cannot be too fresh.
1t is from its odor that the smelt de-
rives not only its familiar but Latin
name, an odor SO aggressive of sliced
cucumbers that, if its presence be mani
fest only to the sense of smell, people
are often deluded into such supposition.
This odor is not marked except in the
freshly caught fish and disappears in
the cooking, giving place, however, to
fitting resurrection of the smelt to an
olfactory sense still more savory and de.
liahtful. Market Review.

The Swiss authorities have at last
sanctioned the plans for a railway up
the Jungfrau. The railway will, in its
upper extremity, run in tunnel, ris-
ing in spirals in the interior of the
mountain and will end on little
rocky plateau on the western side Of
the summit, The last portion of the as
cent will be made, painful to relate, by
something SO intensely modern as an
elevator. The narrow ridge at the sum-
nit will be ieveled by blasting for no.

some few hours later, he found the cook
