BULLET=PROOF VEST
INVENTED BY PRIEST NEARLY ALL THE
EUROPEAN COUNTRIES

been ordered, but the cost-$1S0-will
be small in comparison with the saving
of soul as well as body, which is the
double use mentioned in his order.
"Orders for the bullet-proof vest
have been filled for nearly all the
crowned heads Of Europe and 100 men
in the bodyguard of the car, who will
wear them upon state occasions. Many
orders have also been received from
sheriffs on the frontiers"
There is nothing particularly secret
in the quality or manufacture of the
new cloth. Pure silk is used in three
ply strands, making a cord about as
heavy as an ordinary fishing line and
rather more than twice the size of heavy
embroidered silk. The weave, how
ever, is peculiar, being seemingly In
four thicknesses, with each weave
crossing the other so that the whole
fabric is closely bound together, adding
to the embarrassing qualities.
In thickness the cloth is about one
eighth of an inch. 1t is soft and plia-
BILE, so that it may be readily formed
into shape to fit the body. When
struck by bullet the very small
| meshes give slightly, the cloth not
| breaking, but rather showing "ruff1ed
up" surface at point of impact, as silk
will naturally show when the threads
are seriously disturbed. The bullets
that have been used in tests snow the
impression from threads of the faDrlc
and fiattened heads.
Twenty chiefs Of police at the re-
cent Bloomington convention sent a
lott tn 10
the tests of the bullet proof cloth.
The test was made at Miller's park
in the presence of all the delegates to
the convention. William Cain, special
agent Of the Chicago & Alton railway
from a 41-caliber Colts revolver fired
six shots from distance of twenty
feet at the vest which was filled with
moss and arranged upon dummy
Five of the shots struck the cloth and
without penetrating it fell into the
grass. The sixth shot struck where
former bullet had partially cut the
fiber, and passing through was found
slightly imbedded in the moss.
Chief of Police Darnell, of Rock ISL
and, then fired six shots from a Smith
& Wesson, long, all rebounding from
the cloth to the ground. Former Chief
of Police Applegate, of Decatur fired
six shots at the dummy from a Smith
& Wesson 38-caliber, one striking the
same spot where another was imbed-
ded and pushing it so that the point
was barely discernible on the inside.
Thirty-two caliber Smith & Wesson's
fired by Chiefs of Police Hunneon, OF
Galesburg, and Holiday, of Monmouth,
at twenty feet distance, did not appar-
emily indent the fabric.
The vest used in the test was one
used in three severe and former tests
and to the satisfaction of the police
chiefs as to the merits of the cloth,
which was an absolute safeguard for
all bullets up to 44-caliber.

reason, that the going of this large

Such a Small Matter.

said the mission teacher, sis the indiffer-
ence of the poor to the education of their
children. For example, we have a little
boy who owing to a congenital defect,
cannot learn to play nationally. A simple
trephining of the skull would relieve him,
and this would cost only $500, yet we
cannot get the child's parents to do any
thing in the matter. It's enough to take
the heart all out of one!'-Puck.

THE UNION PARTY CONVENTION.
Scenes OF Wild Disorder Mark Pro
ceedings-Two Meetings Held
by Different Factions.


Philadelphia, Sept. 4.-The state
convention of the Union party yester-
day was marked by scenes of wild
disorder, which resulted in split and
the holding of two conventions On9
faction Of the party favored the en-
0orsement of the Democratic state
ticket headed by Robert E. Pattison
for governor, while the other faction
favored the Republican ticket headed
by Samuel W. Pennypacker. Each
:'de tried to get control Of the con
vention machinery. In the mixup pis
tolls and knives were flourished, some
:. en- were struck by blackjacks and
others by chairs. The Pennypacker
adherents stormed the platform and
amid great confusion endorsed the
Republican ticket. The Pattison fac
tim, under the marshalship of State
Chairman Ritter, of the Union party
retired and assembled at the Cont
mental hotel, where Pattison was en-.
dorsed for Governor and G. w Guth-
RE, of Pittsburg, for lieutenant gov
eTnor.
1t is probable that the whole pro
Ceedings will be taken into court.

THE FLUSHING HABIT.
A Disease of the Nerves-some Unisap-
 py Cases Seen by Doctor.

A Disease of the Narves-Some Unisap-
 py Cases Seen by Doctor.
 At Vienna a scientist and doctor Jwho
 has made an especial study of blush
 ing declares that it is q disease of the nerves.
 l He declares that blushing should be l treated like any other nervous disease, and that in many instances it is hered- itary.
 | One of his patients Ca man) told the doctor that the fear of blushing. kept alive by the jocular taunts of his | of spirits that he had several times been on the verge of suicide.
 Another patient Ca society woman) suffered seriously from nervous pros- tration in consequence of the teasing of her friends, who made her blush just flor the fun of it." ' A colleague told the doctor of one of his patients who was driven mad by blushing. Her mental condition was greatly improved by her transfer from a chamber papered in red and furnished in mahogany to green room with oak furniture.
 This woman is again in society, but is subject to occasional attacks of blushing that affect her mentally at the sight of red dresses, red ribbons or anything in red,
 He has discovered that those addicted to blushing suffer less in summer than ir, t1,o hc nd ha4 is the best time of the year in which to be treated for the annoying disease. There are critical times, even in the warm months, for the blusher When thunderstorm is in the air and in the damp of the early morn and late at night persons addicted to the habit blush most often and most violently" says the doctor, who distinguishes be- tween two kinds of blushing-blushing caused by extraordinary sensitiveness, extreme bashfulness or modesty, and blushing because of the blusher's ap- prehension of the act of blushing.
 A certain young lady, ext remedy pret- ty was driven to forswear society be- cause the unfortunate affiiction of pushing extended to her beautiful neck and arms and thus prevented her from appearing in full dress. This young woman suffers not only out wardly, but she loses all self-control when blushlig Her thoughts are "ali mixed up," and she cannot speak commercially.
 She underwent treatment for nervous ness, but the doctors could not help her.
 Another singular case was that of 8 leading actress, who consulted the doc tor. "She had ruined her complexion" said he, 'by excessive use of white grease paint applied to cover her blushes, which marred her performance.
 "She blushed whenever anything wens wrong behind the scenes or on the stage, and had no control of her emotions. She is very young woman; I never met with the trouble among actresses of mature years"
 The doctor says that strong men do not blush except under extraordinary circumstances; that blushing is truly mark of effeminancy. Flushing men
