PHOTOGRAPHS ON FABRICS.
Latest Process for Printing Pictures
Upon Handkerchiefs and Other
Articles,

Photographs or various kinds of fab
rics, such as linen and silk, are beeom-
ing notably popular, and some of them
r decidedly decorative, being used
for pillow covers, handkerchiefs and
numerous other articles of domestic
or personal usefulness, reports the
Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post.
The latest patent in this line has
been granted for a process which in
wolves the use of a certain kind of sea-
weed, an extract of which is made by
saturating the plant in water. Citric
acid and ammonium chloride are added
to this aqueous extract, and the fab
ric designed for Photographic print
ing is saturated with the stuff. The
article-suppose that it is a handker-
chief, for examples then dried,
after which it is soaked in a solution
of nitrate of silver and again dried.
The handkerchief, or other article,
presents a surface that is sensitive to
light. All that is necessary is to place
it beneath a negative in a printing
frame, just as if it were a piece of print
ing-out paper, and in a few minutes you
have your picture. Of course, the fab
rio has to go through the customary
toning and fixing baths, with incidental
washings in water, after which the pic
ture is finished and permanent.
Provided with the simple and inex-
pensive solutions required for the pur-
pose, anybody ought to be able to pre-
pare sensitized linen or silk for him
self, the operations being necessarily
performed in the dark room.

WOMEN OF MARTINIQUE.
Their Love of Gay CoIors Is Exem.
plihed In the variegated Cos-
tunes They Wear.

The women of st. Pierre, who only
g few days ago were leading a happy,
butterfly life, are said to have been
~strikingly picturesque, and ever
beautiful.A A writer in the New York
Tribune says of them:
''Their love of color is the passion
ate fondness for brightness of all
the races from which they spring
negro, French and Indian. Fashions
change not at all from decade to
decade, and the only difference be-
tween the dress of the richer class
and the poor is a matter of quality,
except in the case of the women
who act as carriers of fruit and veg
etables.
'These wear a simple garment, not
unlike an Empire gown, made with a
good deal of fullness and drawn up
under the girdle in such a way as to
leave the limbs free. This gown is
always of some vivid hue, with which
the golden tint of the skin contrasts
exquisitely, and as the women are
beautifully formed, the effect is that
of draped %statuary.
''In the well-to-do class the same
passion for color is shown. Over a
loose, white linen garment, richly
embroidered with full, flowing
sleeves, a gown is worn that is much
like that just described, but is of
silk or fine muslin. Crimson, yellow,
blue or green may be the ground
color, on which brilliant flowers of
wildly contrasting shades are print
ed. This is caught up by a silk
sash to q comfortable walking
length, and a long scarf of thin silk
is draped coquettishly around the
shoulders. The costume is COM
pleted by a kerehief of gay c%olors,
tied about the head with a c~onspicu-
Gus bow on top, and frequently a
large jeweled brooch at each side OF
the fastening.
"The women have a stately car.
riage that I have never seer sur
passed. Whether bearing a basket
of cakes or fruit on the head, to be
sold at the shops and houses, OF
sauntering down to the water to be
rowed about for amusement, their
dignity of manner and ~statuesque
beauty of form are fascinating in
the extreme.
"The better class has some educa.
ton, and the women study a little
music and embroider exquisitely by
way of accomplishments. They have
musical voices, and sing sad little
creole songs or gay French chansons
very prettily.
"They are a clearly people, and
utilize the mountain streams to keer
the streets clean, as well as fol
baths. One of the SHOW places is
the great shower bath in the court
of the almshouse. The force of the
water from the mountain height is
immense, and the baths are fire.
%quented by many besides the inmates
of the houses.
"The white population is only 6
few thousands, so that the only i'm
preston that one derives from thu
street throngs is that of the native
population, with it's colors anc
brightness. The two do not mingl,
In any way, as there are enough O:
the whites to form a charming soci
ETY., and the natives are ~perfectl,
content to be ignored socially"

Hftching AutCm ObiIes.

Tt has come at last-the hitching-
post for the automobile. Ordinary iron
hitching-pasts are used, or rings in the
sidewalk; and the hitching-rope,
which no automobile should be with
out, is a wire cable with a paddock.
So many persons have. learned to OPP
crate these machines that it is now
considered unsafe to leave them free

came here few days ago to work on
the Iowa Central extra gang under
Foreman Frank Ray was drowned
yesterday in Mattox Branch on Skunk
northeast of here at IL O'Clock, a. m.
The body was not found until 500 o.

attempted to wade out he was caught
in whirlpool, and when Ray went
to him he threw his arm around Rays

guests of the capital city and the recep-
ton then accorded the members of the
grand army proved to be one of the
most notable experiences in their his
tory as an organization. 1t is the pur-
pose of the business men who have in
terested themselves in this years re-
union to make the encampment even
more noteworthy. Three days, Octo-
Der 6, and s-Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday-have been selected by
Gen. Ell Torrance, commander in chief,
and his associates of the G. A. R. eXecu-
tive committee as the period of the
national encampment. The entertain
ment of the veterans and their guests,
however, will approximately cover a
week, beginning with the Thursday or
Friday preceding the meeting of the
delegates.
Monday has been set apart for the
first days session of the convention
and a special and elaborate display of
fireworks, at which all the officers of
all the organizations then assembled
IN washington anu the pItSdueht VI

On Tuesday the convention will con-
tinue and conclude its annual session,
while all the general visitors to the
city will view an attractive and pictur-
esque parade of the Sons of Veterans,
who meet simultaneously with the G.
A. R., a regiment of militia from the
District of Columbia and several bat
talions of regular troops-engineers,
marines, cavalry and artillery-from
the barracks about Washington. The
third day has been set aside for a
parade of the veterans, sentimental
desire on their part that none but sol
diers who have seen service at the
front should participate having been
recognized by those in charge of the
programme. In the evening it is prob

This is brief and tentative state
ment of the programme so far
agreed upon, and is, of course. sub
ject to change to conform with the
later wishes of the commander in
chief and his advisers. An extensive
schedule of regimental, division and
corps reunions has been arranged to
cover the first two days of the en-
campment. Conventions of less
noteworthy significance than that OF
the grand army viii be held at the
same time by various societies of
survivors and auxiliary associations.
Numerous excursions will be made
to nearby points of historic and le-
gendary interest. such as Mount

fession. 1t has been arranged that

So far but little has been heard of
grand army politics, although it is
generally believed that the competi-
ton for the highest honor within
the gift of the body lies between Col.
John McElroy, of Washington, and
Gen. Thomas ]. Stewart, of Pennsyl-
vania. Col. McElroy, although a
resident of Washington, where he
edits the National Tribune, is con-
sidered as the western candidate.
The colonel was formerly in the
newspaper business in Chicago and
st. Louis. He began life as a type
setter, and worked at his trade un-
til the second year of the war, when
he enlisted in the army. He was
captured soon after reaching the
front, and was for a long time a
prisoner in Andersonyille. Gen.
Stewart served with the One Hun
dred and Thirty-Eighth Pennsyl-
vania volunteers, enlisting when only
16 years of age. In civil life he
served as member of the house of
representatives in 1885. He was
elected secretary, of internal affairs
of the state of Pennsylvania in 1886,
and was reelected in 1890. He was
appointed adjutant general by Gov.
Hastings in 1895. which post he has
filed since. He has always taken an
active interest in grand army mat
ters, and has been commander of the
post at Norristown, in which town
he makes his home. In 1897 he was
elected commander of the Pennsyl-
vania department. He has also
served on the stats of several ma
tional commanders in chief.
Both Of the gentlemen named are
making an active canvass for dele
gates, of whom there are 1900, and
the friends of each seem sure that
their particular choice is sure of
winning the day.
