Of a syndicate which will build cup
defender. This is a statement that he
made yesterday upon being asked If
the stories were true that he. J. Pier

would build such vessel.
Mr.. Duryea is evidently very much
interested in the Bristol shops just now,
for he called on the Herreshoffs nearly
every day last week. He says, though.
that these little Jaunts of his have no
yachting Significance whatever. but
were merely outings.
The stories that have recently gone
out have even gone as far as to say
that Mr.. Duryea would be the manag-
ing owner of the syndicate. but Mr..
Duryea sets the whole matter aside by
saying that he knows nothing about II
whatever.

The latest addition to baby's ward
robe is little white sweater, an exact
copy Of his athletic fathers or golfing
mothers. Such sweaters have been sold
for some time for children of three years
old and upward, but the baby sweaters
are something entirely new.
They are very useful little things,
and, being made Of the finest, softest
wool, are a great addition to baby's
wardrobe. They can be tucked under
the rufied pillow of the baby carriage,
and at any sudden change in temper
ature can be slipped on easily and
without much detriment to the lace
trimmed rufles, and baby can be
wheeled home without the danger of
catching cold. Being all in one piece,
with no opening except for the head,
they will not fall open at the neck and
expose baby to the dangers Of bron-
chitis or laryngitis.

The Chic Thing in Beltq.

Belts not only share honors with dress
accessories for this summers wear,
but seem to claim more attention than
the gown itself We all wear belts,
be we stout or lean, short OF tall, and
no one seems to question their becom-
ingness. Jeweled belts have had such
a long run, and are now made in such
cheap limitations, that the belts of
leather and plain metal are more used
by women who must have something
new. The old-time betting of colored
silk in white, black and all the pretty
shades of color are now again in
vogue, and are simply fastened in
front with clasp. Just at this time,
when war is the talk of the day, the
leather belt with clasp in military
style is quite the thing for the sum
mer girl. 1t is usually quite large,
and, if possible, must have a history
of other war-days. -Woman's Home

A new use for peanut is developing as
the peanut butter industry becomes
better understood. The product of the
peanut answers in the place of ordl.
nary butter for the table use, and is
said to be excellent for shortening pur-
poses, and for gravies, sauces, etc. In
point of purity it is well designed for
the use of vegetarians who strenuous
ly object to anything animal. There is
already a considerable demand for this
butter substitute, and it Is very prob
able there will be an enlarged market
for the nuts. At present the product
of the United States is about 100000
bags annually, and that of the world
is G00,000,000 pounds.-West Coast

A Chinese Typewriter.

A missionary at Tung Chow has in
vented a Chinese typewriting machine.
The characters number about four
thousand, and are on the edge of wheels
about a foot in diameter. Twenty or
thirty wheels are required to carry all
the characters, and two keys must be
struck to make an impression. The first
turns the wheel, and the second stops
it ut the required letter, which is then
brought down 10 the paper. THE ma
chine is complicated, but the inventor
(Dr. Shefiield) hopes to make 1t more
simple. There are $4,000 characters in
the Chinese language, each represent
ing a distinct word. The 1000 in COM
mon use have been selected for the new
machine.

senofas Of the town, and he had vain
ly explored all the salons OF Bincdocn
for an introduction, when one day, as
he was writing prescription for a
chance patient in one of the fine
houses in the Faubourg of Santa Cruz
the sudden rustling of silk dress
was followed by the apparition of the
lady. She was eighteen years of age.
Her features were regular and placid,
her hair black and beautiful, and her
eyes large and expressive. This was
Anne-Maria Favea, Marquesa de las
Salinas, the wealthy and charming
young widow of Colonel of the
guards who had married her when
but child.
Paul stammered, got out of the
house awkwardly, went home in
fever, called again, and six months
later was the husband Of an excellent
wife. Her fortune, $136, 900, invested
in Mexican venture, was seized by
Colonel Iturbide, who became EN-
peror of Mexico, and was dethroned
and shot. This excellent woman bore
every trial with patience. She fol-
lowed her husband with the most un-
bounded confidence. She welcomed
the European visitors who came to
the colony, and she put clothes on the
backs of the dalagas. Quietly she
laid her little girl in the grave, and
uncomplainingly, as she bid adieu to
the boy who was soon to follow, she
went down into it herself She was
teacher of goodness; the narrative of
le gentilhomme breton sinks to song
for the dead upon every mention of
her worth; and the cross of the Le-
gion of Honor, accorded him at the
request of Marshal Soult, was little
recompense for the other self that ho
had lost in the Lady of Jala-Jala.
