When daring minds conceived the
idea of Harvesting the power of Ma
CARA Falls, an ETglishman in a general
way devised the plan of the immense
dynamos that are used there. 1t was
left 10 the electrical companies to work
out the details and produce a practi-
cal, useful machine. Mr.. Stillwell had
charge of this work for the Westing-
house company and Its plans were ac-
Cepted by the Cataract company and it
received the contract for the machinery
in that wonderful power house at Mia
CARA, which is one of the marvels of
the world and Is visited by electricians
from all parts of the earth.
Mr.. Stillwell had charge of the in
stalling of the plant ana so favorably
did he impress the directors of the
Cataract company that they induced
him to remain with them after the plant
was started as the electrical director
of the company. The Westinghouse
company was loath to lose his services
and he was made consulting engineer
of that company. When the Manhattan
Elevated people decided to use electri-
city on that road as a, mOVtive power
| they selected Mr.. Stillwell as the per-
son best equipped for the great under
| taking and on Tuesday arrangements
were closed by which he became the
head of the electrical department OF
| that company. for the present he viii
divide his time between Niagara, where
! his home is, and New York city. Later
| he will probably withdraw from con-
nection with the Catract company, save
in the capacity Of consulting engineer
! Charles Hamilton, who was a mem
ber of Company B, of the Thirteenth
regiment, has returned to this city ant
resumed his old position as door-keepel
at the Academy of Music. Every af'
ternoon and evening he is greeted by
hundreds of his old friends who are
pleased to see him again handling tht
pasteboards at the door of the Acad
envy Mr.. Hamilton did not join tht
guard until about the time the wa
broke out. Like hundreds of other pa
! triotic young men he was anxious Il
do q little fighting for Uncle Sam ant
he thought, as almost everybody di'
at that time that the shortest roa'
to the front was by the national guart
route, and so he enlisted in Company Is
AT Camp AlJser the insidious malari;
fever made an attack upon him tha
brought him TO the brink of the grave
After he recovered sufficiently to b
moved he returned to this city, thil
and emacitaed, a mere shadow of hi
former self. His robust constitution
was his salvation and gradually al
traces OF the fever were Eanished an
he became his own vigorous self agar
He rajoined his company at Cam
Meade and went with it to Camp Mac
Kenzie. The south has agreed wit
him admirably, if his appearance no'
is fair evidence TO base judSmer
upon.

time Miss Mary Evans had gone to

An Eastern Wedding

During our stay at Cairo we
were fortunate enough to be IN
vited to very grand native we'd
ding which took place just at
that time, and the following is an
account OF the whole affair, which
was quite the most wonderful
sight that | have ever seen.
We were invited at pm, and,
being anxious not to miss any of
the fun, we arrived a few min
utes after the clock had struck.
The house is In a narrow little
back street, so narrow that two
carriages cannot pass each other,
though Rlaz Pasha, the bride
groom's father, IS one of the
greatest men in Egypt, and was
even prime minister for some
time. AS soon as we arrived at
the house a band struck up
tune to welcome us, and two little
men in tarbooshes, with very
large white rosettes, came up and
offered us their arms, and we
walked solemnly arm in arm
across a large courtyard COW
cred over with tent hangings,
with screen running along one
side of it, behind which one could
see the harem gardens, beauti-
fully illuminated with Chinese
lanterns. This courtyard, which
had a balcony running around
three sides, with rooms opening
on to it, belonged to the mems
part of the house.
We were taken to a cloak-room,
where we got rid of our numer-
Gus wraps one requires to be
very warmly wrapped up for
driving about at night in open
carriages, even may be in Egypt,
the land of the sum, and were
then escorted upstairs by our re-
spectlve cavaliers to a room,
where we were presented to our
host and to the little bridegroom,
after which they took us to the
door of the harem rooms, and
left us in charge of an eunuch,
who ushered us into what seemed
a new world, utterly unlike any,
thing we had ever seen before.
The room was brilliantly light
ed and crowded with harem la
dies-wonderful people, in dresses
Of the most gorgeous stuffs mag
Unable, brocades and silks and
satins, covered with gold and
silver embroidery, but all fitting
SO badly that their wearers, who
are not remarkable for the beauty
| of their figures, seemed utterly
shareless. When one goes about
the streets of Cairo, looking into
the harem carriages, and sees
lovely dark eyes appearing from
behind the white yashonahs, or
wells, one always imaglnes that
the faces must correspond to the
eyes, and that the harems must
naturally be peopled by the beau
tlful ladies with the almond eyes
and moon faces of the Arabian
poets. Ones first introduction
into a haren is, therefore, DIS
appointment. The women are all
ugly, with sallow compilations,
| wien, wrinkled, old faces, and
untidy, unkempt looking hair.
They are very stout, the result
of no exercise and an enorm Gus
| quantity of sweets, and all this
| ugliness is only enhanced by the
gorgeousness of their dresses and
the diamonds and jewels by which
| they are sometimes almost COW
cred.
We were introduced to our
hostess, who was dressed in white
watered silk, crusted with golden
stars, with a strange white head
dress, rather like a turban. She
was delighted with her own APP
| pearance, and remarked to an
English lady, "My dress came all
the way from Constantinople,
| and isn't il haa ntifnl2'' She could
