PARIS. Nov. 1s.-It is reported here this
evening that Capt. Dreyfus il dead Inc
rumor is understood TO oe based on a mys-
tefious telegram received from Coimar,
capital OF Upper Alsace, signed 10y an un-
known correspondent So far as can De
ascertained there is no official confirmation
OF the report.
The father-in-law Of Dreufus discredits il.
lie says he has received excellent accounts
from the colonial office quite recently as
to the prisoners health. Despite this as
surance, there are dark rumors atioat. In
view OF the curious manner in which the
letter from Dreyfus declaring that he had
abandoned all hope was conveyed to Nine.
Dreyfus on Friday, many people believe he
Is dead.
A dispatch from Paris on Friday said
that Nine Dreyfus had apniisj that day
at the office Of the minister o. colonies for
permission TO send her husband some warm
clothing for his return home, The request
was refused on the ground that the gov
ernment would do whatever was necessary.
Al the same time. according 10 the dis
patch. the authorities read her a letter
from her husband 10 The effect that having
for five months addressed appeals fer re-
vision 10 Gen. &c Bolsdeffre (recently chief
Of stan OF the French army without get
ung any reply and being weary and ex-
hausted by his useless appeals, he would
write no more 10 his family or anyone
else. He described himself as i'll and dying,
ana beuueathed to the generosity Of my
country the care OF rehabiiitatng my mem
ory.''
Ii appears that Nine. DreyfuS then asked
permission 10 telegraph her husband the
decision Of the court OF cessation. This re-
quest was a.so refused. Then. through a
friend, she appealed to President Faure,
with no better result.
The dispatch said her counsel would bring
the whole matter before the court Of
cessation.

A New Form Of Personalities.

The old style of portraying famous
people through sketch or "biogra-
ply" is to be modernized in the Ladies'
Home Journal during 1898. Five OF
the most prominent Americans have
been chosen for the departure: Presi-
dent Mckinley, Mrs. Cleveland, Mark
Twain. Joseph Jefferson and Thomas
A. Edison. Each will have special
article, which will consist of about fif-
teen or twenty fresh, unpublished stor
les and anecdotes strung together. each
anecdote showing some characteristic
trait or presenting different side of
the subject. The idea is to show fam
GUS personalities through their own
doings and sayings, and to make these
articles accurate the relatives and
closest personal friends of the subjects
have assisted and given to the Journal
the best stories and anecdotes within
their own knowledge. Each article will
thus represent the closest view of the
ono sketched. No authorship will be
attached to any of the articles.

THE USE OF CORAL.

II Is by No Means ms General as II
wus Formerly.
"The beautiful coral necklaces and
brooches that were once so fashionable
are seldom worn now by women in this
country" said a New York dealer in
rare and curious ornaments to Wash
ipgton Star reporter recently. "Ihir-
ty years ago the material was in great
demand for all sorts of articles of per-
sonal adornmeDt. At the present day
coral is used largely only in such coun-
tries as Abyssinia, tine Congo. the Cape,
India and Ceyion, Siberia. China and
Japan. The choicest pieces are used
for the buttons of Chinese mandarins
or for ornamenting the turbans of rich
Mussulmans, while the Inferior quail
ties are sent to less civilized countries,
where they are employed for various
purposes.
Coral has been often used as money
in oriental countries. but that use of it
is now declining. Barbarous and semi
civilized peoples employ il largely for
ornamenting arrows, lances and pixies.
and also for decorating corpses before
uterment. Prices have varied much
of late years. rapid decline in value
having taken place, owing principally
to the scarcity Of good and he compara-
tive abundance of inferior qualities.
Resides the loss accruing to the fish
erman the present scarcity of coral is
very seriously affecting the large num-
ber of people employed in preparing the
material for market. There has been a
great decline in the number Of women
thus engaged at Legborn, and the same
state of affairs is evident at Naples and
Genoa. the other principal seats of the
industry. Nowadays the proportion of
inferior quality is so much larger that
fewer persons are required TO N anipu-
late the quantity. No machiner.yor or me-
cbanical process is employed. The
workman simply takes pieces of coral
into his or her hands, one after an
other. and. according to their thickness,
quality and defects. works them into
certain forms. Their wages run from
10 cents to IS cents per day"

RoSETTES ON BRIDLEs.
What They Are Made of and wha
They Cost.

The bride of pretty much every her
ness has upon it rosettcs, more or less
ornamental, one on each side, placed
at the ends of the front or brow band.
These rosettes are made in very great
variety. Some are made of tin. some
of German silver, and some of German
silver covered with thin sheet of sill
yer. Some rosettes are plain, some are
embossed. They sell at prices ranging
from practically nothing to two dollars
pair. Rosettes of this kind are often
engraved with the monogram or with
initials. Engraved rosettes are not in
frequently seen on business harness.
There are costlier rosettes that are
used on carriage harness only, and are
made some of leather and some of silk
ribbon. These are made by hand In
various sizes, and of various colors and
combinations of colors. Handsome ro-
settes of leather sell ut $3.50 TO IS n
pair, depending upon the size; the rib
bon rosettes at from Ave to ten dol
lars pair. Roset4ns OF this kind are
not sold with the harness. They are
bought separately. as ornaments. Rib
bon rosettes costing ten dollars pair
might, for instance, be bought to at
tAch to the brides OF a fine double har-
ness costing, nay. $500 set.

There builded heron her nest
With hay from the lowland meadow,
With twig from the forest tree.
With moss from the woodland shadow.
She wrought it cunninely.
Then. with mother love. she brooded above.
And-hark, TO the children three.
With the mists of the dawn upcurling

Went forth from her childern's cry.

Then. in search of food. went she from her

And-alas! for the children three.
The eve was fed. and the stars had burned
them
Adown to their sockets edge.
rhe dawn was chill. and the nestlings
turned them
In lone unrest in the sedge.
But home no more came the heron ever.
From over the land and the sea:
Through the even song, and the dawning.

For the bullet had sped. and the heron

CONTRACT LET.

CHICAGO, ILL, Jan. 4.-(Speclal.)- y
Louis Enricht, surveyor for Cook
county, was awarded contract today
for the construction of nineteen miles
Of the Canon City & Cripple Creek rail
road. The contract was let by Hirsch
Bros. Sc Co., who are financiering the
enterprise. The consideration was not
given out, but it is estimated at some
thing like S5O0,OO0. This railroad is to
be thirty miles long, running from
Canon City to Victor, Colorado. AT
Victor it will connect with belt line,
over which it cars will run to Cripple
Creek. The motive power will be cleo
tricity. 1t is proposed to complete
the line by July, though the contractor
will have until October in the event OF
delays. The road is intended to carry
coal from Canon City to Cripple Greek
and Victor, and to bring back ore. 1t
will be several miles shorter than the
present routes, and the projectors an.
nounce they have enough contracts fol-
ore transportation already in sight to
earn the cost of the road in two years
There is a difference of 5000 feet in the
altitude of the two terminals, but, it is
said, there will be no grade of more
than seven per cent. Hirsch Bros. &
Co. are interested in the construction
company. holding one half cf its stock.
Associated with the Chicagoans is
Lyman Robson, of Canon City, for
whose gold mine, the Doctor, the Roth
childs are said to have offered 80, 100000.
The other partner in the construction
company is James B. Orman, ex-mayor
Of Pueblo.
