,Ifen. w. ~. WaSnDurn was a
guest in the city last Saturday
afternoon on his return from a
trip to Wilton. General Wash
burn was much interested in the
matter of llgnite brlcketting, and
to Tribune man yesterday ex-
pressed his belief that the matter
had passed an experimental stage
and that a bricketting plant would
be established not far in the fu-
ture. '::The test recently made on
the 500 at Minneapolis was large
ly at my suggestion, said General
Washburn yesterday, ''and they
were more than satisfactory, They
demonstrated that a cheap practi-
calsand excellent fuel is possible
to be made from the Ignite under
the bricketting process. AS to the
cost of making the bricketts, that
we are not yet prepared to say yet.
II q plant is established, it will
probably be started on a compara-
lively small scale, possibly hun
dred tons q day capacity, and will,
il through my efforts, be located at
Wilton, which seems the most
practical point. OF course, the
main consideration with reference
to the bricketts is the matter of
price. # good, marketable and
satisfactory fuel can be-; put on the
market to- I compete with bitumi-
nous or anthracite coal and at a

PARIS WALKING MAD
The Craze for Pedestrianism Becom-
 ing a Serious Problem.
Competitors i'm the Races Fill the Streets-Many Glasses of People Engage i'm Them Some
 Amusing Incidents.

Paris.-Not long ago it was London and now it is Paris that has gone mad with a walking craze. Every Sunday and holiday the streets ot this city are overrun with crowds, of men and women competitors in walking race. On recent Sunday we haa three-the midinettes, or dressmakers
 apprentices, the carriers, and the chansonniers, or singers and poets or the Montmartre cabarets. AS each Of them brought together. immense crowds of people, I imagine the pre- feet of police will soon get tired or the new Parisian craze. ..- ss
 I must say nothing more amusing was ever seen in Paris than the marche des midinettes. Of course, as a sporting event it simply did not ex- ist. The whole question was one of getting well away, those who were favored by the start, if they could walk at all, had the race in hand. The 1,60O competitors were drawn up in line across the Place de la Con- corde The Avenue des Champs Ely

GENERAL ROBERT E. LEE IN THE. FIELD

: GENERAL ROBERT E. LEE IN THE FIELD had succeeded at Gettysburg, and that was everything. A certain headquar- ters clique was busily discussing how Meade came near being defeated at Gettysburg and how he won out by the genius of other heads. Of this the sol diers knew nothing. The army had scored 8 tremendous victory, and Meade was at the head of it.
 Furthermore, Meade in personality was the exact opposite of two generals yet were especially popular with the troops, Burnside and Hooker. When it comes to matter of life or death, Of an endless war or progress toward vic tory, volunteers will not let their per sonal preference count in the matter of loyalty to a leader. At that stage of the game leader might be camp ty- rant, yet if he won battles the men would swear by him.
 Meade's handling of the army after Gettysburg lifted him in the eyes of the soldiers when at last they stood on the banks of the Rapidan, the Kappa hammock behind them, Richmond in front and the slaughter pen at Freder- icksburg avoided. Men are ready to fight and bleed 9th a fair prospect of winning, but they protest against hope less slaughter, and the commander who aims to save them from that may count upon their devotion.
 It is true that Lee took his stand on the Rapidan and drew Meade after him, but Lees tactics were decided by the necessity of guarding the pass at Orange Court House, which Meade would have seized if given opportunity. Thus Lee on the Rapidan was the out post guard of Richmond, and Meade camped at the gates of the citadel to watch and wait for the opening of the battle season of 1864.

sees was so crowded with people that the police could only with difficulty keep narrow lane up the center for the pedestrians. The. result was that when the starting pistol was fired those facing the avenue dashed forward and took the lead, while the girls to right and left of the line had to fall in behind. In fact, a process sion was formed with ranks five or six deep; those in the rear had no more chance of forcing their way through the solid mass in front of them than they had of flying.
 But. it was intensely amusing to see how seriously the competitors all took the affair. With set teeth and clenched hands, their eyes glued to the road in front of them, they raced along, am afraid, if the ordinary rules of heel-and-toe walking were applied to the race,t about 90 per cent. or so would be disqualified Many of them covered the ground at sort of glid- ing run, which was very far removed from walking. But as they were all more or less offenders, it did not mat ter much. There is no doubt about the way they got over the ground. By the time the Ronde point in the Champs Elysees was reached they were all flushed: and when they got to the Arc de Triomphe they were as red as poppies.
 As there were $50 prizes, ranging from suite of bedroom furniture and 300 francs down to packet of pic- ture postcards, 1t was worth their while pressing on, Then there were prizes for categories of all kinds for the youngest girl and the oldest, for the prettiest. for the tallest, for the stoutest and the thinnest, for Savoyards. Auvergnats, Lorrainers, Bretons and a. dozen other depart ments; so that everybody could hope to get something. In an experience -of 16 years I never saw such crowds in the French capital-not even on the

DEATH THAT IS PAINLESS.
Many Tramps Who Take Their Last Sleep on Burning CuIm Banks
 i'm Pennsylvania.

Death comes in many forms in the anthracite mines of Pennsylvania, but only one form is painless and pleasant, and to only one the victims go uncon- sciously. It is the death of the burning culm bank, says the New York Sun.
 Many times during the year Is such death recorded when one of these great culm banks is burning. The fire Is not seen in the daytime, and at night 1t shines only with faint glow through the layers of ashes which sep arate the live coals from the outer air.
 To these burning banks tramps and other unfortunates, forced to spend a night in the open air, go when the nights grow chilly. The warm breath of the culm lures them on with promise of a warm bed for the night, and they lie down to sleep in the comfortable atmos- phere of the bank and never open their eyes again.
 The noxious gases emanating from the bank wait over them so softly that they are soon asleep, and in many cases they never, awaken, being suffocated during the night

There were at least half a million peo- pie between Paris and Nanterre All along the 12 kilomsters of route there were unbroken lines of people; while 10000 or so on cycles, automobiles, in carriages and on horseback accompa- nied the procession. The race. was won by Mile. Cheminelle.
 The walk of the chansonniers was however, perhaps the most original held yet. For each of the poets had not only to cover the 16 kilometers be- tween Montmartre and Suresnes and back, but he had to compose a poem on a subject to be announced at the moment of the start. The poets start ed from the Cabaret des Quat'z Arts that last fortress of Montmartre vii and humor, the last of the cabarets artistiques on the Sacred Hill. M 'Trombert, it's genial owner, acted as starter to the score or so of chanson- niers who lined up on the boulevard The subject given out for the poem announced just as the competitcrs went of, was: "The inconvenience o1 having corns on the feet" M. From. bert gravely adding that the treat. ment of the subject might be Brave or gay. The prize was won by M. dt la Fouchardiere. ... .-,
