should be the name Of the town that was TO De.
The hymn IL not Moravian, though Pietistc IL
was written and composed by Adam Drese Cl6So-

hundred years ago. This tune is found in arrange

have belonged to Queen Elizabeth This manu-
script was written in the early part of the seven

Wolfe had license to print ballad called ''Goe

There is nothing at all fantastic in the notion
that Dresses hymn tune may have been inspired

Extraction Of Perfumes.
From Nature.


The extraction of the perfume from now-
ers. such Jasmine. tuberose. violet and
cassia, has long been carried out by the
process of enfieurage. the blossoms being
left in contact with purified lard for few
days and then replaced by fresh blossoms
The lard Is either sold such or the es-
sential oil may be extracted from ii by
melting 1T under strong alcohol.

made to extract the oil directly from the
flowers by means of light petroleum, but
these processes have not. as rule proved

enfieurage.
An interesting illustration OF this Is given
by DR.. Albert Hesse in a recent number Of
the Berichte in which he states that ton
of tuberose blossoms yielded only sixty-s
grams of oil when extracted with light
petroleum, but during enfleurage yielded
sol grams of oil to the fat in which they
were embedded. while further seventy
eight grams remained in the faded bios

or distillation. 1t thus appears that eleven
times much perfume is produced during

EARLY DAYS
OF Railroading, When Passenger
Trains Returned to Stations.
From tn" New York Press.

From the New York Press.
Few persons In these days of mile-a- In
ute travelling realize the immense changes
which have taken place in railroad travel
ing in the past half century. In the old
days. especially before the use of telegraph
train orders. the fastest passenger trains
Travelled at a pace which would make even
Brooklyn trolley blush today. The
superintendent of one of the great trunk
lines running out OF New York recently ran
across a copy of one of the first train or
derS ever issued on his line. 1t reads:
Freight trains will in all cases wat for
passenger trains and for milk trains and
be kept entirely out of their way never
leaving the station on the time of pas
senger train. unless positive information
received from 1t. The rate of speed IS four
teen miles per hour for freight trains and
engine men of freight trains are not at Lib
erty To make up for delays by increasing
the speed beyond this rate.

minutes before the time and point where it

tion and what are the chances that you Will
ever see it again? There is one man who
says that he tried the trick and succeeded
at it. He is business man. who refuses
to allow his name to be used In print about
the story, but he tells the tale to many OF
his friends and he vouches for it's truth.
In 1894, he says, he found cent piece
dated 1898 in the restaurant of the Lafay-
ette Hotel. He pocketed it for luck. and as
a meInento OF Jouy Httie dinner scra tched
his initials on 1t just over the feathered
head while on the cheek he added those of
the hotel. Until 1896 he treasured the coin,
then drew IT out of his pocket with hand
full of other change, and before he realized
it the cent piece had gone the mysterious
way of all money.
A year ago he CHANGED, being of a Gu
rious turn of mind. to fall into CONVERSE
ton one evening with a professional beg
gar at Broad and Chestnut streets. He
upbraided the man for getting so much
money for nothing.

Anxious to Leave the Country.

Crown Princess Jutta is so anxious TO
get away from Montenegro, which she
abominates, that she is doing all she
can to persuade her husband to yield to
his fathers and younger brothers in
sistences. But Danilo does not seem dis
posed to give way. and his attitude in
the matter is such that Nikita is, ac-
cording to latest adyices. about TO bring
matters to a climax by the issue of a
decree setting aside as unworthy his
eldest son, and proclaiming his younger
and favorite son Mirko.
The latter. devoured by ambition, is
married to that beautiful Mile. Constan-
tinowitch. of Servia, who, destined to
become the bride OF her cousin, King
Alexander. was Tilted by him for the
sake OF Queen Draga. He is determined
to secure a throne, and inasmuch as he
