COLORED TROOPS IN WAR.
Pictures of Frances Allies Shown
Germans to Prevent Panic.

In view Of Mr. Chamberlain's asser-
ton of our right to employ our colored
troops i'll any war it may be asked wheth-
err any other European power has ever
used such 4 right. The answer is that
France used African soldiers from Alge-
ria in the Franco-Cierman war. Several
regiments Of Turkos and Spahis fought
all through the campaign, and the for
mer particularly distinguished themselves
by their bravery against the Bavarian
troops i'll the terrible engagements Of
Weissenburg, Worth and Bazeilles
The term "Turko" was really nick
name given to infantry regiments com
posed Of negroes and Bedouins and spe-
clally organized for service in Algeria
Their uniform was similar to that OF the
Nouayes, except that it was pale blue.
Their black faces were of so sinister a
cast that it is said the German govern
ment circulated pictures Of them among
It's army in order to accuStom the sol
diers to the sight of these African oppo-
nentS.
Many Of the Turkos fell in action and
large numbers were taken prisoners 4
few of them managed to get back to
Paris at the time OF the commune. There.
without the restraint of discipline. they
gave way to drink, and eventually made
themselves such nuisance that the Par
isans were very glad to see the last of

WORK OF PATENT OFFICE.
Larger Number of Applications from

\ copy Of the report of the cmomis-
SiUner of patents for the fiscal year end
lng June 30, 1901, has just been re-
ceived 10y III. G.. Underwood. the patent
attorney, from which it appears that Il
larger number of applications for pat
entS were received than ever before in
any one year in the history of the pat
ent office, the total for this said year
being 4SoI1 applications. The work is
well in hand. there being only some
1000 applications awaiting action on
July |, 1901. while the total number of
patents granted and trademarks. labels
and prints registered during said year
exceeded $4,000. and there were over
1000 applications allowed on which the
final fees had not been paid. During
the year over 10000 patents expired.
after having been in force seventeen
years, throwing that number of patent
ed Inventions open to the public The
total receipts of the patent office from
all sources were 81, 40S,S and the to-
tai expenditures S1.2SS, $40, leaving n
surplus Of nearly $l20.000 turned into

Of the patent fund" which nov
amounts to nearly S5.0O0,000 The com.
missioner suggests that a part of this
surplus could be well employed in bet

hee affords to inventors. and iuasmuch
rs the entire fund comes from that class

twelve months Of life on the sea bottom,
within 100 yards Of the shore. But the

full results to these little ones. The de-

Millinery Models from Paris.

The long-haired felt. called By some
moleskin, is the dominant thing.
Velvet WILL of course, be used extern
sively, but long-haired felt bids fair to be
a powerful rival.
All kinds of fur are good, particularly
ermne, Persian lamb. sable and mink.
II IS decidedly bird and wing sea-
son; There are birds of paradise, sea-
gullS, lophophores, pheasants, parrots
and blackbirds, besides fancy wings and
breasts. Plumes are paramount; long
ostrich feathers which droop and touch
the shoulder, graceful tips and fluffy
algrettes, all are fashionable
Great crimson Jack roses are made of
r!ch-hued velvet and satin antique in
shaded, two-toned, globe effects. These
flowers are set beneath the brims of SOM
ber-hued hats as relief
Feather hats will be a feature. These
are made entirely of tiny breast feathers
glued upon a foundation. 4 knot of vel
vet or a buckle is frequently the only
trimming
Much of the millinery is ornamented
with brilliant buckles and slender slides,
the high novelty being blackened steel.
or an interminglng of glittering cut steel
with dull mat tones.
An especially novel face trimming is
loop upon loop of crushed Liberty satin
in delicate coloring; very effective. Other
smart hats consist Of fl0unces of taffeta
hemmed with chenille in a contrasting
color. Roses, white and palest pink. are
sometimes fastened beneath a swirl of
ostrich feathers, Spider-lke bows of inch
wide velvet catch up the brims of stylish
tricorneS.
Ruttl2d hats are 4 positive rage
Many hats were draped with Irish
point lace, one in conjunction with Rus
sian sable. A beautiful material is made
of strips of felt, straw and taffeta inter
mixed. It resembles plated straw.
