HOW PAPER rs RULED.

ing Piece of Mechanism, In Which
Ink liz Fed to the Pens by Strips of
Flannel ON Strings of Yarn.

How many people who pick up small
memorandum book full of tiny blue
squares know OF the manner or process
by which the lines are traced? The ma
jority Of people, il asked this question,
will Immediately answer that the work
is done after the manner of all ordinary
printing-on a fast press making SO many
thousand revolutions per minute. Hun
dreds of business men, perhaps, who or
der their lcdgers, day books, journals,
billheads, etc, from the printer know
little different than that the men who set
the type and operate the presses are also
responsible for the red, blue, purple and
other colored lines that run perpendicu-
larly and horizontally over the pages in
their business books
All the larger printing establishments
have book binderies attached, and here
the lines and special columns with which
man may want his stationery marked
are put on, and not in the pressroom
proper, as might be supposed. There are
two places in Pittsburg where this work
is done exclusively, and all except the
few larger printing houses send their
work to be lined, or, professionally speak
ing. ruled. in these establishments.
AT paper ruling house on Second ave-
DDS of forming colored lines, the operator
in charge of the machines that do the
| work explained many of the difficulties
encountered in accomplishing the delicate
tracings. The paper ruling machine re-
sembles an old Washington hand press,

The pen with which the ruling is done
is by far the most interesting part of the
mechanism. This is grooved brass af-

HAVOC-sPREADING SHELL.
Experiment at Sandy Hook Proving
Ground With Isham PrOjectiIe.

An experiment was recently made at the
Sandy Hook proving grounds with dy-
Mantle shell which, according to the In
ventors News. tended to prove that If it
had struck battle ship the latter would
have been sunk. The experiment was one
of those ordered by the board of ordnance
and Notifications, and took place in the
presence of members of the board, Maj.
Heath, who is in charge of the defenses at
Sandy Hook, and Willard S. Isham, the
inventor of the projectile.
The shell. made from about 900 pounds
of cast steel and carrying a bursting
charge of 1907 pounds of explosive gela-
tine. fired from an ordinary Pinch
rifle, mounted on an improviSeU carriage
behind shield. The charge used for firing
it was composed of common brown pris-
matte powder.
of Harveyized steel twelve inches thick
and specially treated was placed at an
angle of forty-fiVe degrees to the line of
fire. Behind it was thick backing of oak.
and behind the oak was a small mountain
of sand. the whole calculated to be stronger
than battle ships side, The shell struck
and exploded with terrific report The
steel target was blown clear up the oak
backing and lay seventeen feet to one side.
and at right angles to the line the shot had
followed. Part of the oak backing and the
sand behind it were blown away Only
about four pounds of steel fragments of
the shell We're found.
Members of the board expressed satisfac-
ton with the experiment. The most de-
structive explosive known was used in the
she'll 1t was composed of So per cent of
nitro-glycerine, per cent of gun cotton as
absorbent, and per cent of camphor

Views of President LOubet Expressed
at RambOuillet.

Replying to an address of sympathy from
the president and members of the district
council of Rambouillet, France, President
Loubet yesterday expressed his gratitude
at being able to appear at Rambouilet in
spite of the cares of office, to which the
speaker had referred. These cares, he
added, were real ones, and it was not with
out deep grief that he beheld a disturbance
of public mind leading to street disorders.
These should not be exaggerated, however
and the public should not lose heart
Continuing, President Loubet said IT
am profoundly convinced that the troubles
of the country are nearing the end. The
measures adopted by the government bear
witness to the fact that it is firmly re-
solved to defend the republic, preserve pub
lie peace and assure respect for The law
The whole country should bow to the YER
dict of the Rennes court-martial, which
can be relied upon for absolute impartial
ity. and the representatives of the people
will cooperate in the work Of reconciiia-
ton and pacifcation, which Is necessary
for the highest interests Of France"

sANTO DOMINGO REVOLT GROWS.
Rebels Take the Town of Macoris
Without a Struggle.


A dispatch from Puerto Plata Santo Do
mingo, via Cape Haitien, yesterday says:
Generals Caceras Vasquez and Brache, at
the head of 500 revolutionists, appeared be-
fore Macoris. They left the great body
of their troops at the entrance to the city,
and with twenty men advanced to the gov
ernors house, demanding surrender. Gov
ernor Castillo, thoroughly cowed, repaired
to the plaza without making any resistance,
and the delivery of the park, fort, arsenal
and government buildings was then effect
ed. The revolutionists then formally occu-
pied the surrounding country, meeting with
no opposition.
In this way the revolution, strong and
humane, is rapidly advancing, avoiding so
far as possible the shedding Of blood, and
winning sympathy by the peaceful charac-
ter of its methods. The complete victory
of the cause of JimeneZ seems assured.
There is no check on the eastern border.
Little is known here to what is going
on at Monte Cristi, though the government
troops are still there, as well as General
PeDin.
News was received at Cape Haitien from
Puerto Plata, Santo Domingo, that Sanchez
Blanco, near Puerto Plata, and Moca have
declared in favor of the revolution.
Puerto Plata also expects similar decla-
ration on the part of Santiago. General
Pepin, governor of Santiago, left the prov
1nce some time ago to march upon the in
SurRenlS, ana IL Is DelleFed IN Puerto fldtd
that Santiago will rise and march on La
Vega.
1t is reported in Havana that General
Juan 1Sidro JimeneZ, the revolutionary as
pirant to the presidency of Santo Domingo,
who is now in ManZanillo. has received dur
ing the last three days more than 800 APP
plications to join any expeditions he may
intend to send to Santo Domingo. The ap-
picants include many Cuban officers who
served under the late General Garcia.
The wife and family Of General JimeneZ
left Havana yesterday morning for Bata-
bano. where they took the MenendeZ boat
for Santiago de Cuba, at which point Cen
eral Jtmenez will Join them.

How They Are Pronounced.


When the Dreyfus trial is ended there will
remain one charge untried. At the thresh-
old of America will be laid horrible crime,
that of numbering the French pronuncia-
ton. For conviction it will not require a
secret doesier, but open ears on the street
corners and in the restaurants.
There are over 200 French words in every
day use in the dispatches from Rennes and
Paris. While great publicity Is given to
the tiniest grain of information or opinion,
next to nothing has been offered the public
on the pronunciation of the proper names
involved in this particular case.
The name of the prisoner is German and
originally was pronounced 'Dryfoos," but
the family in France Is called "Drayfuce.'
The sound in the latter syllable is that of
the German umlaut "u,'' but the spelling
given is the nearest equivalent in English.
Many of the sounds in French words
said Professor Theodore l.. Neff, instructor
in romance languages at the University of
except in an elaborate system of philologi-
word can be made in English spelling, but
that is the best that can be done. The
nasal sounds have TO English equivalent,
and, where represented by the nearest rem
dering, 'ng, the g should not be sounded -
The pronunciation of the principal names
connected with the Dreyfus affair is given
as follows by Professor Neff who empha-
sizes the fact that the "g' used for ex-
ample. the end of the equivalent for
Baudin. is not to be pronounced, and yet
has a value:

A special to the New York Times from

Capt Louis P. Sanders aid-de-camp on

his father, former Senator Sanders, let
ter describing a trip made by hlmseH ana
Col. Potter, under orders from Gen. GUS
to ascertain the true situation in the Sulu
archipelago and north Borneo, and the at
titude of the sultan toward the United
States The objective point of the journey
was JoIoj the capital of the sultanate,
which was reached May %. Capt. Sanders
said in part:
THE Moros are altogether unlike the Fill
ipinos. There is no striking feature about
the E'ilpinoS that rivetS ones attention.
but the Moro fascinates and interests you
from the start. He is of rather diminutive
size a sinewy, 1.-THE fellow, broad-shoul-
dered and thin-legged, with boldness de-
fiance and haughtineSs in every movement
of his catlike, staggering tread.
The present sultan is thirty years of
age. He holds nominal sway over the Mo-
ros of the Sulu group and over north Bor-
neo. 2GD,u00 subjects supposedly recognize
ing his power. But his tenure Is insecure
by reason of the ambition of divers chiefs,
or dattos, as they are called. By virtue of
divers treaties between himself and Spain,
he receives an annual pension of s., 100

done to his subjects by Spanish invasion.
This. at least. is the consideration men
toned in the treaties. but / think the Span

Gen. Otis intends to continue this
nual payment, and believe it good policy.
The sultan little understands Americans.
and to his ignorant mind if this payment
were cut off he would conceive us to be
oppressive tyrants, and would certainly
wage his uncomfortable method of war
fare.
Il believe from the essentially savage in
stincts Of the Moros that they will always
lust for slaughter, and 1 will wager. from
what | have seem that with the first eff
forts to impose upon them the restraints of
our civilization they Will rebel, and it will
be necessary to crush them.
The sultan said he hoped the Americans
would be friendly to his people, and he ex-
pressed his gratitude to them for having
driven out the Spaniards He assured us
that had the Americans not come it was
his intention to hunt us up. even if he had
to go so far away Singapore to find us
Finally he said the Sulu Islands We're but
small and his people very poor, and he
hoped the United States would not claim
sovereignty over them.
In reply the captain, avoiding political
questions said the United States would
certainly befriend the Suus. but that he
could not say what the intentions of his
government We're as to taking the islands, -
