A ChIld,s Costly Caprice.

A bridge which the sultan ordered to
be constructed in Constantinople was to
have been finished by particular day,
but the contractor found that this would
be impossible with Turkish workmen
unless he worked day and night. This
he obtained leave to do, and t.s4s HCceS
sary lights and torches We're supplied at
the sultan's expense.
All went well for time till the un-
fortunate contractor was told that ho
must open the bridge to let ship from
the dockyard pass through some time
before the building was finished
He said it was impossible, as he
would have to pull everything down,
and it would take two or three months
to replace the scaffolding and pile driv-
ing machines. But the ministers Of ma
rine and finance said, ''If the sultan
says it must be done, it must, or we
shall lose our places, if not our heads. "
So the ship came out, at II cost Of a
little over 9100, 900 and delay of three
months in the completion Of the bridge,
all because the sultan found his small
SON crying in the harem one day, the
child's grief being that, though he had
been promised to be made an admiral,
he could not see his flag hoisted ON his
particular ship from the nursery win

Tho finest river of British Guiana is
the Essequibo, into which flow the mag
niticenS waters of the Cuyuni and the
Mazaruni, forming confluence at Bar
tica point over four miles broad, the
stream then widening out through its
subsequent course of 90 miles into an
estuary 20 miles from bank to bank.
The Essequibo rises i'll the Acaroi noun
tains 40 miles north Of the equator, and
tears sinuous way through and down
the terraced surface for distance of
over 900 miles. 1t is not navigable for
steamers much beyond Bartica point,
and the farther it is explored tho high
er, grauder, more beautiful and more
dangerous become the rapids.
One of it's tributaries, the Potaro,
which joins it about 100 miles from the
coast, has waterfall surprising Mag
ara in height. This is the Kaieteur fall
(the Old Mans fall, to translate the In
dian name), which was discovered by
Mr.. Brown, who made geological sur
vey for the government a quarter of a
century ago. At this point the Potaro
falls over sandstone tableland precipi-
tously for TAI feet, and then over a
sloping cataract of 81 feet into great
rocky basin. In food time the width Of
the fall is about $40 feet and i'll the dry
season $40 feet or less. "If, ;" says Mr..
Thurn, "tho whole valley of the Potaro
is fairyland, then the Kaietcur ravine
is the very penetralia of fairyland. -

Lavinia Fenton, who had undertaken
the character of Polly in the "Beggars'
Opera" for the remuneration of 10 shil-
lings per week, suddenly found herself
the most celebrated person i'll London.
Her portraits were sold everywhere, her
opera costumes copied by fashionable
ladies. When she went nightly to and
from the theater, bodyguard Of strong
friends had to be formed to escort her,
lest the fair damsel should be carried
off by one of her many importunate ad-
mirers. Lavinia s musical success ended
with the run Of the opera-after which
she retired from the stage-but not so
the good fortune it had won for her
The Duke of Bolton was SO fascinated
by her charms as the saucy Polly that
he made her his duchess after the death
of his wife, from whom he had long
been separated, whereby Lavinia be-
came the first of the actresses connected
by marriage with English nobility -

Life at Washington,

miners expense. II was asserted by
the miners that, although the PATENT
ees of the cyanide process may have
been original inventors, the chemical
facts on which it was founded were
known long ago, appearing in chemi-
cal and other publications and mining
works, and that any skilled metallur-
gist, having this knowledge, could do
just what was claimed by them as new.
Further, it was asserted that the same
thing had actually been done before,
although not on a large scale. COln-
missions were issued for the taking Of
testimony in various foreign countries.
The most important field was ia this
country. Lawyer Truslow began his
work year and half ago, and it led
him to examine almost every chemist
of note, every college or public library,
and to look into all sorts of trades
where gold is used for evidence of
what he knew was true. One of his
assistants was Prof. Henry Wurtz of
this city. Prof. Wurtz was positive
that he himself had had knowledge of
the main facts years before, but. he
could not place the time nor the way
in which this could be proved. One
day while he was searching the libra
ries for general facts, and near the

of the American Journal Of Science
and Arts, published in New Haven in
1866, and there in an article written
by himself was statement which Gov
cred the whole matter. In the Astor
library was found much which bore
upon the matter, and as many OF these
books could not be duplicated and
none of them borrowed, photographs
of the needed pages were made. This
work alone cost 81 800. A number of
experts were examined on both sides
The hearings in this country were
finished in September, 1895, and the
testimony and exhibits sent To Preto-
ria. The case was heard by the High
Court of Justice at Pretoria just be-
fore Jameson's raid in December of
last year. As far as the South African
gold fields are concerned the decision
throws the process open to the public.
1t has been attacked and the pat
ents overthrowu in Austria. and the
belief of the opposing lawyers now is
that nowhere in the world will the
users of the process continue to pay
royalties, but will fight and overthrow
the patents everywhere. This means
much to the gold miner, and probably
will result in immense additions to the
worlds stock of gold in a few years.

destroys ones individuality in way
that is very Disappointing indeed.
As a rule, light delicate colors and
white should be assumed by blondes,
while to brunettes are RELOCATED the
dark. rich shades and brilliant colors.
In addition to this, flowers having long,
flexible stems and pendulous, dropping
blossoms should be selected. Gerani-

Of them pinned to the corsage does not
impress one as being very artistic
The same may be said of all flowers
that bloom in close heads or masses
OF course, the first choice with most
women is roses, and, if these are cut
with good long stem, their arrange
ment upon the dress is a simple matter.
Roses, however, cannot be had at all
times, and it is well to know Of a few
other flowers that are, almost, if not
quite, their equal in the matter OF per
sonaI decoration.
The graceful Pendulous blossoms of
the arbutilon, or Towering maple,
make lovely corsage bouquets. The
rich, bright reds and clear yellOws,
that have lately been added to the list
Of varieties, are very handsome, and can
be effectively worn by blonde or bru-
nette-
Perhaps the next best choice are the
blossoms Of the fuchsia- They are very
graceful in pcise, but care should be
taken that they harmonic with the
costume worn, as most fuchsias show
