ChicagO's Woman Cooper and New
York's PhOnograph Singer.


Chicago has a woman cooper. Her
name is Margaret Buggee, and by MAX
ing barrels she has made barrel of
money. In a few years Mrs. Buggee
has cleared $4,000 She not only SUI
perintends the making of barrels in
her shops, which are in a crowded part
Of the southwestern end of the city, but
Is practically experienced in this
branch of business. She thinks moth
ing of pointing out to half a hundred
able bodied men their sins of omission
or commission in perfecting big
hogshead, and when they can't seem to
grasp what is wrong with their work
she picks up the necessary tools and
shows them. The following sign is
conspicuously posted over the entrance
to her cooperage:
This place is for business-keep out"
Perhaps that is the keynote TO her
success.
Miss Estella Louise Mann earns
good living by singing into the rever-
berating hollow tubes of a phonograph.
Hers Is one of the few feminine voices
which have ever made successful
record for the phonograph or graphic
phone. Her voice is powerful and her
enunciation distinct and clear or she
could not have remained in the bust
ness To sing without an audience
is not very inspiring, but Miss Mann
says she knows in reality that the
world is her audience, so when she
takes her stand before her phonograph
every morning she simply imagines
that she has the world at her feet, and
that helps her to eXpend her best ef-
fort. She is daughter of E. II.
Mann, Assistant Superintendent of the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad
Company, and a graduate of the Gin
cinnati Musical College. Her songs
from her records can be heard from
twenty to forty feet from any good
sized phonograph.
Miss NJ Louise Gilmore. clerk in
charge OF the women's delivery depart
ment of the Chicago Post Office, is said
to have served the Government for a
longer period than any other woman
in the history of this country. She
was appointed in October, 1867, by
Gen. Frank Sherman, who succeeded
her brother, Col. Robert A. Gilmore
as Postmaster. During the thirty
years of her service in the same ca
pacity, except for a period of three
months, her term has been unbroken,
and this absence was the result of
serious accident Otherwise she has
not lost day from illness or any
other cause since her appointment.
You may carry your own thermome-
ter now, and it will only cost you 25
cents to buy the portable kind. They
are round, about as large as 4 quarter,
and have a stick pin at the back, with
which to fasten them. The little
glass tube containing the mercury is
coiled like a serpent with the bal! in
the centre. This is a great scheme
for the feminine cyclist. With a lit
tie scientific calculation she will be
able to determine at what degree of
heat her face gets an unbecoming red,
and then she has only to watch her
thermometer to see when that degree
has been reached, when she can dis
mount and cool off.

SPANISH NAMES.
Their Pronunciation Have Many Strange
Peculiarities. Z,

Their Pronunciation Have Many Strange
Peculiarities. !:
That Spanish pronunciation has It's
peculiarities may be inferred from the
fact that there is Spanish town whose
name is spelled "Cieza,'' and pro-
nounced "The-a-tha." The accent is
on the second syllable. ~" in Spanish
is always sounded like the English ''th"
In "thimble'' and thirst" CO. before
"e" and "a" has the same sound. Thus
it Is that the same of the Spanish
steamer which not long ago visited the
port of New York is pronounced as If
spelled "Vithcaya," and that the name
of the Cuban port Cienfuegos is pro-
nounced by the Spaniards as we should
pronounce it IL spelled "The-enfwa-
goce," the accent being on the third
syllable. The Cubans do not always
follow the lisping Spanish fashion, and
their pronunciation of Cienfuegos
makes the first syllable sound like "Se. !"
The Spanish "g" has the same sound
as ours when it precedes "a 90" or
"u." But before "e" and 81" it becomes
az aopii dtS Tic equi'aieHt VI tHC
sound we give to "h" in hint" and
"head." The Spanish III" is always
silent. The Spanish j" is sounded
precisely the same as our ''h" in 'ham."
1t is because the Spaniards were the
discoverers of that region that the
name of the Gila river in Arizona is
pronounced ''Hela,' and that San Jose,
in California, is called San Hosay"
The combination 'll'' is always pro-
nounced in Spanish like our 'lli' in
Million so that "Guamarillo" is pro-
nounced Cocoa marcel leeo," which
is very musical sound. But Ameri-
cans will never be content to dwell
laZily upon each letter in pronouncing
their words. They gre a busy people.
Phosphorus Made by Electricity.
Phosphorus can be produced now by
the electric furnaces in several ways
Which have proved commercially prac-
ticable One process, known as the
Gin and LcleuX process. consists of
heating mixture of phosphate of lime
and coke in an appropriate electric
furnace. The two ingredients should
he finely powdered and the mixture
should be homogeneous. When the
mass becomes pasty under the action
OF the heat all the openings of the fur
mace are hermetically sealed except
that for the passage of the phosphorus
vapor, which is distilled and collected
