The universal admiration excited by

The universal admiration excited by the exploits of De Wet has partly lost
 sight of the fact that DE WET our civil war produced AND three or four of his pro- MORGAN totypes. Of these the
 confederate generals Morgan, stuart and Forrest were the most distinguished. It seems that mo- bility, cunning and daring were as high ly developed by the forces commanded by these generals as by those under De Wet. Morgan's raids were wonderful exhibitions of skill and endurance. The first important one was made into Ken lucky in 1862. He had never dome any soldering until the war broke out. but during its course he employed 4.O0O men co effectually that he killed and wound ed about that number of the enemy, and captured more than 15,OOO This is his acOunt of the result of his first raid: '1 left Knoxville on the 9th day of this month (July, 1S62), with about 600 men and returned to Livingstone on the 2sth inst. with about 1900. having been ab- sent just twenty-four days. during which time had travelled ovea 1000 miles. captured seventeen towns. de- stroycd all the government supplies and arms in them, dispersed 1.500 home guards, and paroled nearly 1900 regu- lar troops.

 The quickest relief, for a cold, is also the most effectual balm for the worst condition of wind-pipes and lungs.
 It takes the edge off a cold in night, and relieves it pro gressively-one forgets it after a little.
 An old bronchitis, however, is obstinate. Nothing re- stores the tissues, when once destroyed; and an old bronch- its has gradually impared and partly destroyed the lining of those small pipes between throat and lungs.

OCEAN TELEPHONY SOON.
Scientists Believe That This Difficult
Problem Has Been Solved.

Problem Has Been Solved.
According TO a recent issue Of The
Electrical Review, a telegraph and tel
ephone company has purchased the
patents of DR.. NJ |. Pupin of Columbia
university, which, it asserts, cover the
art of ocean telephony and enable tele-
phone messages to be sent over any
length Of land lines. 1t adds that the
sum of 100000 has been paid to Dr
Pupin for this invention. v'l' a an,
nual salary Of 81 500 to him ,......., ,..e
life of the patents.
Two patents were issued in June,
1900, for the invention referred to,
which is described at length and char
acterized as one of the most brilliant
and exceptional inventions Of DR.. Pu-
pin.
1t had been thought necessary in or.
der to talk q given distance, say 500
miles, with underground cables to en-
ploy large copper wires thickly COW
cred with insulating material. The ex-
pense Of such wires and material has
been sufficient to prevent the construc-
llOl VI lOuS CIICullS.
Dr. Pupin's invention, it is declared,
furnishes a method whereby conduct
ors of relatively small diameter cover
ed with insulating material of moder-
ate thickness may be used in place Of
the large and expensive conductors for
merly thought necessary. 1t is difficult
to express in nontechnical language
the theory upon which the invention
is based but it may be said to be q
method of lighting fire with fire."
One difficulty with which telephonists
most contend is what they call self
induction" another is "static retarda
ton" and a third is known as ire
sistance."
DR.. Pupin has placed these various
difficulties in such a settled relation
that they have expended their malign
influence upon one another and have
left the telephone current free to pro-
ceed upon its way unmolested. In
other words, he has ''set a thief to
catch a thief" and these disturbers ex-
pending their evil strength on them
selves neutralize their destructive
qualities. The article finishes as fol-
lows:
Experimenting with artificial con-
ductors, DR.. Pupin discovered that it
was possible to telephone over vastly
greater lengths Of cable than had ever
been possible before and is able to
make any desired length of telephone
circuit easily possible. He has shown
a design for inductance coils to be in.
troduced at appropriate intervals in q
transatlantic cable, which would allow
telephone conversation to be held
across the Atlantic ocean.
ut is believed by those who have
Investigated the subject fully that the
improvement which his inventions con,
template will enable telephony over
land lines of any length that are in
use today and solves the difficult and
attractive problem of ocean teleph-
ony."

ing at the Pinehurst gardens near Sum.
merville, S. c., and is now preparing to
use $1,000 appropriated by congress by
sending out a large number Of tea
plants to the agricultural colleges in
the gulf states. He believes it will
soon be demonstrated that tea can be
raised with profit all over the south,
possibly including states as far north
as Tennessee and Missouri, and that in
time the United States will cease i'm
porting tea and will become an export

companies with large capital have been
organized to establish tea plantations

seem to prove that q good grade Of
American tea can be grown at a cost
not exceeding 10 cents a pound and
that 1t can be sold in bulk at from 80

bonnet, illustrated by the New York
Herald In connection with this de-
scription of evening hoods and wraps,
is Of lace striped pale blue silk, the
hood and cape cut together and fitting
the head loosely. 1t is lined with blue
silk of some soft weave, and all around
the outside edge of both the hood and
cape is a full plated ruff1e of lace edg-
ed chiffon. A jaunty bow of blue rib
bon is fastened on the right side of the
top, and the hood Is tied with broad
sashes of chiffon with ruffled edges.
Another style of hood is one that
looks like a large puff of soft striped
silk lightly wadded and lined with a
plain color. The front edge turns back,
showing the lining, and at either side
are knots and long, broad sashes Of the
plain silk. The style Is quaint and
pretty, but not nearly so practical as
one with a cape attached.
The lovely little evening capes and
collarettes are fascinating In the ex-
treme and are convenient to use when
larger wraps are too clumsy. One very
pretty design Is of shirred mousseline,
with rather high collar. Around the
edge of the cape are two deep accor-
dion plated ruffies, one a trifle shorter
than the other and both finished with
an edging Of black French lace. The
long stole ends are Of the same plait-
ing, with several rows Of the lace across
the bottom.

Marrying Foreigners For Culture


Countess Frenfanellio- Cebo, who is
visiting in this country, has told Chi
cago reporter the reason why Ameri-
can girls marry foreigners. Heretofore
1t has been supposed that titles had
something to do with the case, but the
countess says that 1t Is not so-that
American girls choose foreigners sim
ply because of the superior culture of
European men.
This plain talk will doubtless set
American young men inquiring as to
the particular faults of the homemade
brand Of culture. 1t has been suppos-
ed hitherto that American frankness,
honesty and genuine manliness would
outweigh any mere veneer of studied
politeness or the superacialities that
come with education in a foreign CAPT
tai. But Of course this visiting count
ess knows, or thinks she does, what
constitutes real culture. Doubtless the
noble Count Boni de Castellane Is her
ideal.
If the countess would prove her as
sertion that American girls marry for
eigners simply for the brand of cul-
ture they receive, let her bring over a
number of Europeans who have cul-
eure, but no titles. Let them be put on
the market and advertised as bargains
In European culture and see how many
Of them will be married in a year. If
European fortune hunters had to de
pend solely on their culture to contract
rich alliances, there would be mighty
little American money going abroad to
patch up decayed European estates. 1t
is the title that attracts certain Ameri-
can heiresses, a large proportion of
whom rue the day they surrendered
hand and fortune to It.

''These sheep pictures Of Mauve's are

When the late Horace Maynard, Ii.

ed himself to ridicule and jibing Qucs-

over the door of his room a large
square of white cardboard on which
was inscribed in bold outlines the sin
gle letter V. Disregarding comment
and question, the young man applied
himself to his work, ever keeping In
mind the height to which he wished to
climb, the first step toward which was
signified by the mysterious V.
Four years later, after receiving the
compliments Of professors and stu
dents on the way he had acquitted
himself as valedictorian of his class,
young Maynard called the attention Of
his fellow graduates to the letter over
his door. Then a light broke in upon
them, and they cried out:
Is it possible that you had the vale
dictory in mind when you put that V
over your door?"
"Assuredly had" was the emphatic
reply.
