Bridgeport Trolley Car Accident.

BRIDGEPORT (Conn), Aug. IT.
The jury in the inquest into the cause
of the accident on the Shelton Street
Railway Company's bridge at Peck s
Mill Pond, August 9th, by which thirty
people were killed. rendered their ver-
diet to-day that the motorman of the
wrecked trolley car, George S. Hamil-
ton, was guilty of criminal carelessness,
and that the Shelton Street Railway
was very negligent. The jury also rec
commended a special session of the Leg
islature to act on certain laws which
it recommended for the protection of
persons riding on trolley cars.

mastery over himself. He accompanied
his statements with energetic gestures
and with an intonation that brought
every point he wished to make, and he
made many, as the incessant murmurs
of approval fromithe audience showed.
From the beginning to the end the
testimony Of the Colonel was spoken
without hesitation, and his facts were
arranged and submitted in lucid, un-
equivocal language, which was strik
ing testimony to his finely wrought in
telligence. He was very effective,
with some simple phrase, as when re-
peating the late Colonel Henry's. the
atrical denunciation of the Dreyfus
court-martia1 he turned toward Drey-
fus, and pointing to him with his fin
ger, said: Henry said it just as
am saying it now" and everyone in
court to-day had the scene at once be-
fore their eyes
The strongest point made by Colonel
Picquart was undoubtedly against Patty
de Clam, on the latters motive in al
tering the date of the bordereau.
Picquart's arguments and courage
Gus attitude undoubtedly impressed the
members of the court-martial, and elic-
tied a continual ripple Of admiration
from the audience. But there was no
demonstration either on his entering
or leaving the court. Great precau-
tions had been taken to prevent any
attack upon Picquart. Cavalry and
mounted gendarmes kept the public a
quarter of a mile from the court, and
the streets were swarming with police
men and detectives.
Madame Henry made a poor impress
sion in conformation with Magistrate
Bertulus, and from the tone Of her
voice and absence of emotion, it was
plainly seen that her intervention was
prearranged, and that she simply re-
peated what she had committed to
memory

WALL PAPER,
How and Where 1t Was First Made
and Used.

and Used.
While various kinds of printed fabrics
were known to the people of most remote
antiquity, it was not till the eighteenth
century that wall paper in anything like
Its present form came into common use
in Europe, though it appears to have
been used much earlier in China. A few
rare examples, which may be as early as
the sixteenth century, exist in England,
but these are limitations, generally in
"fock," of the old Florentne and Geno-
ese cut velvets, and hence the style of the
design in no way shows the date of the
wall paper, the same traditional patterns
being reproduced with little or no change
for many years. 1t was not till the end
of the last century that the machinery to
make paper in long strips was invented.
Up to that time wall papers were printed
on small square pieces of handmade pa
per and We're very expensive. On this
account wall paper was slow in super
seding the older mural decorations, such
as tapestry, stamped leather and paper
cloth.
A work printed in London in 1744
shows some light on the use of wall pa
pers at that time: 1.-THE method Of print
ing wall papers of the better sort is prob
ably the same now that it has ever been.
Wooden blocks with the design cut in re-
lief, one for each color, are applied by
hand, after being dipped in an elastic
cloth sieve charged with wet tempera
pigment, great care being taken to lay
each block exactly on the right place, so
that the various colors may register or
fit together. In order to suit the prOduc-
tions of the paper mills these blocks are
made in England 21 inches wide and in
France Is inches wide. The length
the block is limited to what the workman
can easily lift with one hand-2 feet be-
ing about the limit, as the blocks are nee
essarily thick and in many cases made
heavier by being inlaid with copper, es-
pecially the thin outlines, which, if made
of wood, would not stand the wear and
tear Of printing.
SIN flock and gold or silver printing
the design is first printed in strong size,
the flock (inely cut wool Of the required
color, or metallic powder, is then sprin
kled by hand all over the paper. 1t ad-
heres only to the wet size and is easily
shaken off the ground or unsized part. If
the pattern is required to stand out in
some relief, the process is repeated sew
eral times and the whole paper then roll
ed to compress the flock. Cheaper sorts
of paper are printed by machinery, the
design being cut on the surface Of wood
en- rollers under which the paper passes.
The chief drawback to this process is
that all the colors are applied rapidly one
after the other without allowing each to
dry separately. as is done In hand print
ing. A somewhat blurred appearance is
usually the result."-Paper Trade.
