w.,,,.on Bou.p.r.s,s wealth.

Napoleon Bonaparte's VIII, among
those OF great men, affords the near
est parallel to that Of Cecil Rhodes In
the fortune 1t bequeathed. He was
surely the richest exile since the world
began. From his lonely home at ST
Helena he bequeathed to his relatives
and friends $40, 100000. He had been
rich. in gold as in power. beyond the
draoms Of ayarice, and there must
have passed through his hands a pri-
vste fortune such as Mortal man mas
rarely dreamed of. His exactions set
Avn AT nearly $685. 900, which is,
after all, but six times multiplying tne
gift he secured for himself from tne
Austrian treasury after Austsrlitz. he

Cost Depends Largely in Carving OF
the Pipes.
Fire in a pipemaker's shop the other
day spoiled the proprietor's stock Of
meerschaum, and incidentally disposed
of the idea, common In most smokers
minds, that the commodity Is very ex-
pensive. Meerschaum itself Is not
very expensive. That used by the
manufacturers in this country is im-
ported as a raw material from Austria.
and most of 1t is obtained in Asia
Minor.
Usually there are three or four dif-
ferent grades, running from the rough
and mixed to the pure and nnely
grained article. There is no duty upon
it. The chunks, not unlike camel coal
in shape. are packed In oblong boxes,
about two feet and a half long, foot
wide and a foot high. The raw mate
rial is quite brittle and has to be SOAK
ed In water before 1t Is used for model
ing.
Meerschaum pipes are expensive De-
cause much of the material from
which the bowls are made has TO De
thrown away before a piece Is FOUND
that has no flaws In It. The shavinss'
however, are never wasted. They are
used to make a cheaper grade Of pipes,
which are known as chip meer-
schaums.-New York Post.

REUNION AT DALLAS.
Confederate Veterans by ThOus-

Dallas, Tex, April 22.-With the music
of many bands and cheers from thou
sands Of threats the twelfth annual re-
union and meeting of the United Con-
federates began today at the Auditorium
at the fair grounds-now called Camp

The crush of visitors was the largest
in the history of Dallas. It was esti-
mated in the morning that 10000 visitors
were IN the city, while information from
the railroads was that by night this
number would be swelled to 125, 600 at
least.
While thousands of visitors did not
leave the business section Of the city,
the tents of Camp Johnston two miles
distant. We're crowded. The great mess
shed, seating 1900, was opened this
morning. An army Of cooks and wait
ers worked like beavers while the vet
Grams. with a hunger born Of a night
in the open, did their best in an able
manner to keep the cooks busy. Tea,
coffee and milk by the barrels. beans,
meat, hard tack and accessories by the
wagon load disappeared in marvellous
fashion. The boys is eatin' as If they a
been separated from the wagon train for
about three days" is the way one Louis
ianian put it.
The convention building, seating $500
people, was filled soon after the veterans
were called to order by Gen. K. NJ. Van
Zandt, president of the Texas Union as
ISOLATION.
Mayor Ben T. CabeH welcomed the
veterans to Dallas.
W. c. McCamy welcomed the old SOL
ders on behalf of the local societies Of
veterans and Col. w. L. Crawford spoke
for the Texas Reunion association.
Interspersing the speeches the songs
of the Southland were mingled with
