A rifle fired by liquid air is the latest
invention for war, says the Boston
Globe. The inventor is Frenchman
named Paul Giffard, and his new
weapon, if all that is claimed for it be
true, will revolntionize the whole
theory and practice of gunnery for
cannon as well as for shall arms.
Air liquefied under enormous pres
sure is the explosive used for NJ. Gift
fard's new rifle. 1t is loaded into a
reservoir beneath the barrel. The trig-
ger is pulled, causing little valve to
open and permitting single drop of
liquid to escape from the reservoir
The magazine is full of conicle bullets.
and one of them always lies in the bar
rel of the rifle until fired and succeed
ed by another. The liberated drop of
air instantly expands in a small cham
Der behind the bullet, and the power
of its expansion is SO enormous as to
discharge the projectle with velocity
approximating half mile second.
No combustion having occurred.
there is no smoke, of course, Stranger
yet, there is no sourd-no report to
give notice that the gun has been fired
In the battles of the future men will
fall without knowing from what direc
tion they were struck.
The magazine holds 140 bullets and
can be reflled in six seconds. The
proJectlles can be discharged in a
steady stream.

Romance IN the NertnVest.

The following story comes from
Scranton, S. D.: On the assurance of
an expert and they were physically and
mentally adapted to each other, John
Ward Ellis and Miss Matte Weaver
were married recently after an acquain
tance of less than an hour. Both were
present not long ago at lecture by
Professor William McShane on Love,
Courtship and Marriage The Pre-
fessor's contention was that men and
women pay too little attention in
choosing life partners to similarity of
temperament, taste and education
He argued that these considerations
be made paramount in the selection Of
husbands and wives, rather than mere
blind passion. To illustrate his theory,
he picked ten Youug ladies at random
from the audience, defined their char
acteristics and explained why they
should wed husbands of such and such
dispositions and habits. Then he made
selections for them from among the
male hearers. Ellis and Miss Weay-r
were among the ideal couples pointed
out, thus. Neither had ever seen the
other before. but SO deep an impres
sion did the Professors words make on
them that brief consultation between
them followed Immediately after the
lecture, at which they determined to
act On the speakers suggestion. 1t
was already SO late that it was neces-
sary to drag the Clerk OF the Court and
a Justice of the Peace from their beds
to issue the license and tie the hyme
neal knot. Professor McShane appear
ed as witness at the ceremony and
emphatically expressed the opinion
that a union SO wisely formed could
not end otherwise than happy. Ellis
is young farmer near Scranton His
bride is the 22-year-old, daughter OF a
merchant of the town.

Hounding Celebrities.

DR.. Paul Garnier, French specialist
IN lunacy, has been giving some infor-
nation about the insane men and wom-
en- who follow celebrities about and fall
in love with them. The doctor has to
send two or three women OF this sort to
asylums every month, and nothing is
known of the cases by the public. Good
looking priests, the doctor declares, are
notably marks for the attention of such
females. After the priests, but in lesser
degree, come the members of parlia-
ment whose names are most frequently
in the newspapers or who make good
speeches in the chamber, the authors
and the handsome actors. The latter,
like the priests, have often been threat
ened by their jealous admirers. In some
instances women have gone to the the
aters with loaded revolvers ready to fire
at them, but for some reason or other
have failed to carry out their purpose.
AS to actresses, DR.. GARNER states that
their dangerous adorers are terribly nu-
merous. Nine. Sarah Bernhardt has
sometimes to be watched over very care
fully. Her worshipers secrete them
selves in all sorts Of places in order to
see her enter or leave her theater or her
residence. The special detectives have
had to interfere on two noted occasions
in order to save the famous actress from
the bullets or the daggers of maniacs
who resolved to injure or kill her be-
cause she refused to respond to their fat
teries and passionate declarations Of
love

After Twenty Years.

Over twenty years ago. says the Lex
ington, KY, Herald, Mrs. John I. Shell
by wrote to a friend, who was then mar
ried and living in Chicago. The lstter
was not answered then, and all recolec-
tion of it had faded from Mrs. Shelby s
mind till short time since, when she re-
ceived letter from that friend, saying
that she had just received a letter, writ
ten over two decades ago, the envelope of
which she inclosed and which is in a
most delapidated condition, with post
marks of various kinds and descriptions
stamped over it. Since the letter was
written the lady to whom it was written
had become widow, married again and
moved from the city in which she lived
and to which the letter was directed, and
was living in another State. Where it
has been all these years, what its travels
have been, why it was not delivered long
ago-John Shelby says he has not carried
it in his pocket all these years-are ques-
tiOns which no one can answer, but how
the postoffice officials finally discovered
and delivered the letter to the proper
person, now living in another State and
under q different name from that to
which the letter was directed, seems be-
yOnd explanation.

Another New Light.

s. B Nickum, of LoganspOrt, Ind,
who announced that he had discovered
a means of making wonderful light
without wires or current. refuses to
discuss his invention yet, and as far as
possible avoids all seekers after infor-
nation. The inventors brother, T. B.
Nickum, wBs seen, however. by New
York World correspondent, and
through him the following statement
as to the new light was obtained from
the inventor:
THE light is contained in a round
glass globe, or sphere, in which SOCIAL
can be made of almost any brilancy.
from the size of Il pea to that of the
most powerful arc light, or even great
er. The light is a beautiful, never
flickeriug white light. and when the
globes are once made and sealed re
mains constant forever thereafter.
There are no wires and no electric
current used, but the light never
goes out. and when not IN use can be
placed in bureau drawer or any con-
venient place until needed. The globe
is cold, there being no loss of heat or
movement from the interior to the out
side.
There is no possibility of fire re-
sulting from the use of the light, for
the instant there is a crack in the globe
the light will be extinguished. They
can be broken in a keg of gunpowder
without the slightest danger of an :
plosion.
The nature of construction or pro-
cess by which this new light is produc-
ed the inventor will not at present
make public, but light produced by
the ever present and perpetual vibra-
tion of matter is an accomplished fact,
and practical exhibition of the light
will be made in the near future.n

An English Shop.

Shopping is task at any time, and
not always pleasant one, but imagine
looking for bargains in 56 different de-
partments of a store. That is the num-
ber the largest department store in Lon
don contains, and we may expect yet to
see it on this side Of the water, as
American enterprise and energy have
been heading in that direction for sew
eral years past. In the London store
everything from a cannon to needle
may be purchased. You may have your
photographs taken, hair dressed and
nails manicured, your household goods
stored or insured. You may have a
house built decorated, furnished all
complete, with the servants and insur-
ance on the property, from one estab-
lishment. Pianos, iron in bars and the
ater tickets may be obtained, as we'll as
drugs, ribbons and laces. Altogether it
would be an interesting place in which
to spend a week or two shopping. Phil

BALL PROGRAM MES.
Made In a Very Great Variety of styles
Suited to All Occasions.

! Made In a Very Great Variety of StyleA
Suited to All Occasions.
Ball programmes are made in hum
dreds of styles. A wholesale dealer in
New York prepares a sample book,
which is of the size of an atlas and the
thickness of dictionary. Fancy cards
for some other uses are shown in this
book also, but of ball programmes alone
there may be 500 styles. The book is
like a great album. The dealer sends
out 2,500 such books to printers and
/ stationers.
Programmes can be bought at almost
any price, including many at extremely
low prices. Nearly all are more or less
ornamented, many Of them with en-
bossed work finished with gilt or in COL
ors and in a great variety of designs.
There is scarcely any society, perhaps
none, that could not find here an appro-
pirate programme. There is, for in
stance, ball programme embellished
with trolley car. A number of pro-
grammes. suitable for yachting club
| dances, have yacht surrounded by va
rious emblems Of yachting and Of the
sea. There are programmes for musical
societies, with appropriate emblems,
and for railroad men, for bicyclists, for
military organizations, for letter car
riers, for fremen.
The cords and tassels for the pro-
grammes are separate article Of man
ufacture. They are produced in great
variety Of colors, qualities, sizes and
styles and sold in enormous numbers
and many of them at prices that seem
marvelously cheap. It is probable that
nearly all the programmes Of the kinds
referred to, handsome and elaborate as
many Of them are, would sell complete
at prices under $5 a hundred. There are
folded ball programmes, with picture
decoration, that are sold at wholesale,
without printing or cord and tassel, as
low as 35 cents hundred.
The production of oostlier pro-
grammes, such as sell for $5 hundred
and upward, is a business by itself. These
are made in about 100 different designs,
ranging in price up to $1.25 each. They
are made in great variety Of shapes
and sizes, and, as with the less costly
programmes, of designs appropriate to
the occasion on which they are used.
The more costly programmes are adorn-
ed with hand painted pictures. Cellu-
loid in various forms is employed in the
making of these programmes, and satin,
lace and papier mache are also used.
All these programmes are Of larger size
than the less expensive varieties, and
each one is put up in box. A pro-
gramme Of the highest price was an
elaborate production IA inches square.
The programmes most commonly sold
among the costlier kinds bring about
$18 hundred
There are sold of the cheaper vari-
cites of ball programmes millions annu-
ally; of the costlier far fewer. These
may be numbered in thousands. Winter
is the season of the most active demand
for ball programmes, but they are sold
the year round. Some ball programmes
are exported to Mexico and the various
countries of South America Many Of
the designs are equally suitable and ap-
propriate anywhere. The printing is
done in the countries in which they are
used.-New York Sun.
