Jewel Studded Electric Globes Supply
Long Felt Want.
In the incandescent electric light
there has always been something lack
ing. 1t has always been desired to Sc
cure shield or shade which would pro-
tect the eyes, and yet rob the light Of
but little of its power. This has been
at last obtained, it is said, in the bead
ed globes, a few of which are now be-
ing used in this city. The manner Of
their discovery makes an interesting
story. One Of the best known society
ladies in Paris, attracted by the effect
produced by the suns rays playing on
Japanese cloth made Of glass beads
which hung at one of her windows,
solved the difficulty at once by taking
the beaded cloth and wrapping 1t
around an incandescent lamp; the eff
feet was most pleasing. She called her
electrician and ordered him to make
a shade of glass beads in the shape Of
the lamp bulb, and fasten 1t as best he
could.
The electrician, E. Vedovelli, sue
ceeded in making the desired shade and
completed 1t by the introduction of
clasp made Of a circular ring Of the
lazy tong type. The shades thus fin
lshed were placed on the lamps, and
the effect produced was recognized to
be all that could be desired. Several
days after the lady conquered Paris by
the surprise she gave her guests with
the new illumination Of her salons, and
the result was that orders came from
all over to the electrician, who, to fill
these orders, had to give up his pro-
fessional engagements to become the
manufacturer Of the glass beaded
shade for incandescent lamps.

LONG AND CLOSE RACE.

Two Sailing Vessels Vary Hardly Any in
Their Speed from Hong Knong.
For two sailing vessels to leave a
Chinese port on the same day, on almost
the same hour, and, after voyaging con-
siderable more than half way around
the world, to reach New York no further
apart than when they started from
Hong Kong, Is an event, which, while
not unprecedented, comes not far from
being miraculous. The Tam o'Shanter
and the Wandering Jew, both of them
American ships, built and owned in the
state of Maine, have just accomplished
this remarkable feat. The Tam o'Shan-
ter is of 1922 tons burden, halls from
Portland, and has twenty years OF serv-
ice to her credit. The Wandering Jew
is a Camden vessel 1913 tons heavier
than her rival, and has not wandered
about the seas so long by two years.
During the long journey Of ninety eight
days there seemed to be strange con-
spiracy on part Of wind and waves and
currents to keep the two ships in COM
pany. Even when one of the racers
carried away some of her sails, the other
was unable to take advantage Of the ac-
cident and haul ahead, for the squall
that did the damage was followed by a
calm. Before the breeze came again
new pinions had been spread by the
temporarily disabled vessel, and the
contest of speed was resumed ON equal

and girls with small baskets gatlG~ at
the door and wait patiently until the
manager allows them to ent~ and re-
celve their share of the sandwiches,
cakes and rolls that are LEFT over, says
the New York Herald. One afternoon
last week a well-dressed business man,
who evidently had been too busy to
lunch earlier, dropped into the place
for cup Of coffee about five minutes
before the business closed. The pangs
of his own appetite probably strength
ened his sympathy and deepened his
compassion for the thin, eager faces Of
the three little boys who stood at the
doorway and he asked them to join
him in q lunch. The invitation was
accepted WITH alacrity and the pleas
ure they displayed in devouring the first
sandwiches he placed before them made
him feel that he was purchasing his
delight very cheaply, so he asked one Of
the boys II he did not know Of any Of
his friends In the neighborhood who
might be hungry. The urchin thus adj
dressed gulped reply in the afflrma-
tive and with half-eaten sandwich
In his hand disappeared through the
door. In less than two minutes he re-
turned. He had only gone as far as
Theater alley, just around the corner
and exactly fourteen ragged and hungry
boys were the result of his mission. AS
they struggled through the door in his
wake the eyes Of the host almost start
ed from his head in amazement, but he
wasn't going to disappoint single boy,
especially as he had prompted the in
vitation which had been so ruthlessly
abused. AS soon as he caught his
breath he ordered sandwiches and cof-
fee all around and then completed the
happiness Of his unexpected and sur
prised but delighted guests by ordering
pie. When the last crusts disappeared
and the cups had been drained to the
last drop the boys began to express
their appreciation verbally.
Much obliged, mister" sung out half
dozen in unison.
"Boss, yer err Bird chirped dirty
faced gamin with two evening news
papers under his arm. amy time yer
want paper off'n me it won't cost

So the comments ran. With very
large smile the business man pulled out
roll of bills and paid $2.75 to the
cashier For the first time in the his
tory of the Restaurant there was nothing
left over that afternoon.

siberian COnvicts.

From report which appeared in the
Moscow Listock it appears that last
year II, $50 convlcts passed through the
forwarding prison at Tiumen for the
various penal settlements Of Siberia.
OF this total number of both sexes
there we're 1925 men, 1,715 women and
1889 Juveniles. OF the latter the ma
iority are children who voluntarily fol-
low their parents into exile The re-
port gives the religious confessions Of
these deportees as follows: 1881 ortho-
dox Russians, 1924 Mohammedans, $40
Hebrews, SOC Roman Catholics, 274
Lutherans, 119 Old Believers (ortho-
dox), So Gregorians, 80 Skoptsi and 81
Buddhists. The convicts are now sent
by river barges from Tiumen to Tomsk
and therefore escape the terrible hard
ships of the old highway route. Dur
ing last year, also, there were en-
parked at Odessa about 100 convicts
Of the worst class and of both sexes for
the penal settlements of Sekhallen.

Who Love Please Each other. al5ta
The conduct OF pair Of lovers In pub
lie is sometimes amusing, as their per-
formances are supposed to be In pri-
vate. / saw an engaged couple get on
a street car the other afternoon. They
had no idea that there was anything
unusual in their bearing toward each
other, and were perfectly unconscious
of the fact that people observed the ten
der glances and fond words which they
We're exchanging. Both of their faces
were beaming with the happiness Of low
ers, and every act was an unconscious
confession Of love- The young man was
telling a story and the young lady was
laughing immoderately at the end Of
almost every sentence, He was over
come with delight at the success Of his
story, and whole volumes of love and
pride were shown in his eyes, They
were completely wrapped up in their
own happiness, and to the end of their
journey on the car they never discover
ed that nearly everybody on the car
had been interested in their doings and
sayings.

II don't sees theirs any chance OF

gone face.
Day after day Susie waited, but no
word came about Brown Bess. Tom de-
clared that he believed there was nc
prospect Of selling her, but one day
Charlie Grant drove up to the house,
his face fairly beaming,'
II thought I'd bring you the news"
he said as he came into the bright llv-
ing-room.
"Have they sold Brown BessY" Susy
asked, her voice trembling In her ex-
citement to hear.
"Well, yes-that is IL you'll take the
price they offer" Charlie made answer.
ooh, hope it's a hundred" said
Susy.
"a hundredw laughed Charlie, "Is
that what you value her at? Lucky for
you that l was in the bargain. That
horse will be worth thousands Of dollars
before long. The man who bought trains
horses for the race-course. He has dis
covered remarkable qualities In Brown
Bess as a trotter, and Is willing to give
you thousand dollars for her."
A thousand dollars! Susy stood for a
moment like @ statue, then she flew into
the kitchen where her mother was maxi
Ing the daily batch Of bread, exclaim-
ing:
"A thousand dollars, mother! we're
rich! Brown Bess Is sold for thousand
dollars! You won't have to work hard

five-acre lot Grandma can have all the
fire she needs; the roof shall be
shingled, the mortgage paid off, and

What am I to have?" Charlie asked,
as she stopped out of breath, he having
followed her into the kitchen.
She turned around, and blushing
beautifully, held out her hands. He
clasped them both and drew her to his
bosom.
"What do you think Of this, mother?"
he asked Of the glad-hearted woman at
the breadpan "Susy Is to be my wife"

"Ah, I'm sorry for that, Miss Susy,"
said the storekeeper, But 1 know a
man who wants a spirited horse. What
would you sell her for?"
Il leave that to the purchaser" Susy
made answer. Papa paid seventy-five
dollars for her more than year ago,
and l wouldn't want to take less than
that, for l need the money very much"
she went on, land if you will be so
kind as to take an interest in the mat
ter" She stopped, her eyes visit
full.
"Why, of course I will" the grocer
responded. I'LL send my boy to your
house with the groceries, and he can
bring the horse back with him, If any
thing Is done in the way Of sale, I'll
let you know at once"
Susy thanked him and went on her
way home. AS she came In sight Of
the house, an old-fashioned, two-story
building, where dilapidation was rend-
cred picturesque by a profuse growth
of ivy that covered the front porch and
much Of the exterior walls, she felt more
comfortable as she thought over her
prospects. In Imagination she had her
mother quite reconcled to all her plans,
her school-life assured and all things
going on swimmingly. For who knew
but Brown Bess might bring her hun
drad dollars, she was so spirited and
| handsome?
Work AID home seemed brighter. The
grocer's boy came for the horse, and
though 1t was hard parting with the
pretty creature, Susy in expectation Of
results, bore the separation bravely,
Cant we take little of the money
you get to shingle the roof?' her moth
er asked, as the horse was led away.
IT hope So" Susy replied blithely.
"And you still think Of going to school?
Amt you too old?"
I'm not eighteen yet" was Susy's
answer. MANY girls so to school till
they are twenty"
"And there's clothes to think Of,

"Oh, they'll be provided" Susy said,
with little laugh,

GENERATOR GAS.

The English Are Ahead of Us as Its
UtilIzers.
Though the use Of ordinary lighting
gas is customary in England in engines
up to ten horse power, for larger sizes
a small convenient apparatus has been
devised for the production Of a gas that
cannot be used for illuminating pur-
poses, but which gives very economi-
cal results when burned in the engine
cylinder. This Is known as generator
gas, the best fuels from which to obtain
it being anthracite coal and gas coke,
as these yield no tar; the thermal eff
ficiency is also described as low, 1t
having about 100 heat units per cubic
foot, as compared with 615 to $50 Of
London lighting gas, so that about four
times the quantity is required to in
sure the same amount Of r9wer, the
great quantity obtained, however, to-
gether with the small amount Of de-
probation and labor necessary for pro-
duction, 1t is said, make it in many
cases comparable in cost to gas at 20
cents per thousand.

So many people appear to believe that
there is no money in the printing bust

ton of type-setting machines, compost
tors must turn their attention to some
thing else, it is quite refreshing to
learn from an English contemporary
that, Notwithstanding the intermit-
tent and desultory nature Of COM
positor's occupation, it still seems to
be a favorite one with a great many
parents, who no doubt consider it all

just issued by the London school board
out of a number of scholars passing
through the schools it was ascertained
that the lads were destined for occu-

hard to manage her, she would never

went on, in plaintive tones; mo matter
what's needed; but l s'pose we must
give in. Bad as the roof Is, 1t shelters

over our heads?"
''I'd sell the COW, too" put In Tom.
~And then grandma would just about

Susy turned away from the table,
and grieved, but she said nothing, only
ran upstairs to her own room.
''They don't see it," she sorrowfully
murmured. "They can't understand that

Tears rushed to the dark eyes, but
che repressed them and went down

After helping her mother about the
house, she donned her sunbonnet and
ran to the barn. Tom was rubbing
down Brown Bess, whose bright, glossy
pcnat shone like satin
