RICCoBoNO's HORSES.

The wonderful sagacity of Riccobo- nos educated horses as shown at the Jacques this week is attracting atten- tion all over town, and on every tongue is heard enthusiastic comment as to the novelty and attractiveness of the act. It Is something that one does not see very often, even though trained horses in themselves are not novelty. The work done by these animals, how ever, is so entirely different from the accepted horse act work that it can be considered nothing else than novelty. Surely, to see a horse disrobe, get into bed and go to sleep even as a human being does would seem to be the very height of novelty, even if the horse did nothing but this one trick. It is nov city that all ought to see, for 1t is one that will interest everybody. Laura Comstock with her colored dancers provides much of the comedy, although she is aided and abetted by many oth- CTS on the bill. Notable among the other contributors on the bill are Col by and Way, Hayes and Wynne, the Flood Brothers. Charles Howard, Mosher's bag-punching bull terriers and the vitagraph. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents: afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.

Savage has sent direct from it's successful two months run at Daly's theater, New York, and which comes to Polls on Friday evening. ''King Dodo's'' record as a comic opera sue cess has been one unbroken line of comic opera successes, the same being not so phenomenal since the work has been produced in an elaborate manner and has proven to be a up-to-date re- vival of all that was good in comic op- era. It was written and composed by Frank Pixley and Gustav Luders and ran for twenty weeks in Chicago.

Making Soft Wood Hard.

A Liverpool merchant is said to have discovered process of hardening and toughening soft woods so that they can be used in place of naturally hard woods. The treatment consists in sat- urating the timber with solution of sugar at the boiling point. The water is afterward eyaporated out, leaving the pores and interstices of the wood filled with solid matter, which is not brittle and shows no tendency to split or crack. The process also preserves wood and renders it remarkably im- pervious to water. Even hard woods are said to be benefited by is-Ccien- tifc American.

SILK WEAVING BY ELECTRICITY
Perfection of Machinery in a Modern
 Italian Mill.

Perfection of Machinery in a Modern
 Italian Mill.
 The special correspondent of the London Mail in Italy, with the Insti- ute of Mechanical Engineers, writes:
 'In the plain of Lombardy near d village called Merate, works have been established by Messrs Gavazzi for the spinning and weaving of silk. Some 800 work peol&e, principally women and girls, are employed, and no fewer than 336 weaving machines assist i'll creating the deafening noise to which the visitor is subjected. Each of these weaving machines is furnished with a small electric motor having a simple starting and stopping gear placed within easy reach of the person in charge of the machine
 ''nhe weaving of material composed of such extremely fine threads as that of the silkwolm must of necessity pro- ceed somewhat slowly, and it is there fore necessary to apply suitable gear to the electric motors to proportion the relative movements. without, however, introducing anw form of vibration that might cause the rupture of the silk. the utmost regularity being es- sential-far more so than any other class of weaving.
 "In endeavoring to solve this prob lem both toothed gearing and strap driving have been tried. The experi- ments have, however, shown that eith- CT method can be adopted, provided the motor is mounted on springs in such a way as to allow any jerk to be taken up by the springs. This has been beautifully accomplished at the works of Messrs Gavazzi by adopting n prin- ciple that has for some time been in use in mounting electric motors on tramway cars where a similar end is in view-viz, the avoidance of vibra- tfon.
 "The electric motor is carried by n hinge on one side and by a strong spring on the other side. The vertical movement is thus free.
 "To the women operating these ma chimes there Is no doubt much less dan ger than where a lot of driving belts are in use, which offer such frequent traps for catching some portion of the | clothing and frequently result in a serious accident to the person.
 "To the proprietors of the mill there is the advantage that all possible risk of oil being dropped from any over head shafting on to the valuable mater ial on the machine is avoided, an ac- cident that might easily happen with the older system of driving, and quick ly spoil valuable length of silk.
 '"Fo those who purchase the finish ed article there is the advantage of ma terial of an exquisitely even texture, which could not possibly be produced under any other system at present known for driving machinery.
 "The weaving is divided up into three classes, making material suitable for the purposes of dresses, umbrella covering and lining of clothes. The works throughout are a picture of cleanliness, and represent all the lat est Improvements in this branch of in- dustry, which, after all, is of simi- lar nature to that of all other weaving industries.
 The electrical energy is partly pur- chased in bulk from one of the large companies employing the water power of a neighboring stream and partly generated on the premises by steam plant"

A SALVATION ARMY WEDDING
Novel and Interesting Ceremony Tn .... Ansonia.

Novel and Interesting Ceremony In ....t Ansonia.
 It has been years since there was as
 large an audience in Salvation Army
 hall as was attracted there Saturday
 night. says the sentinel, to witness the marriage of two soldiers of the army.
 The bride was Miss Pearl Edith Fisher, being a we'll known resident of An
 sonia, and the groom Captain J. Ar
 thur Oliver, now stationed at Chelsea,
 Mass, and at one time resident ael
 as assistant to Captain Riley. He is q
 brother of Mrs Riley.
 The services were opened in the usual
 manner, Brigadier Lamb, who has
 oversight of this district, being in charge. There was an arch or ever | greens ill front oI the stage, rom which was suspended large lIlt1tioh bell. Over the stage was tue nlotEo Il large letters on cloth, 'Benold the R,ideproom Cometh.' There were songs. prayer was offered, the br1ga- dier made q short address, and at the close the bride and groom entered tne | hall from the vestiDulc, accompanied
 bv the best man and bridesmaid. The brigadier was in waiting. and while the party was marching Up 'Ae aisle, the soldiers on the platform sang Assuming places, the ceremony, which was quite a lengthy one, was commenc l ed. The groom wore his uniform,
 while the bride was robed ill the uni form which the lassies of the army wear, with the exception of white 1 sash, which was thrown over her left shoulder and fastened at the waist leaving long ends which reached near l ly to the bottom of her skirt. In her dark hair were white flowers, making . a fine contrast The ceremony was ill part that of the Episcopal church, q
 ring being used.
 At the close of the ceremony, and as they both went forward to salute each other as husband and wife, their heads came directly beneath the large bell above them. At that instant q string was loosened, and the bell was | lowered over them, covering them to the waist, while at the same time q
 bap of rice fastened in the top of the | bell was broken open and in an in stant they were covered with rice. It | was an amusing and interesting spec tacle.
 The bell was then drawn up, amid
 the laughter of the comrades and of the audience. This surprise was the design of one of the comrades. At the request of the brigadier, Captain and
 Mrs Oliver each addressed the audi ence, making pleasing and fitting speeches.
 The bridesmaid was Miss Grace Worthington, while the best man was MT George, from Chelsea, Mass, a
 friend of the groom. After the close
 of the ceremony, the relatives and
 close friends of the parties repaired | to the home of the brides parents, MT 1 and Mrs k. E. Fisher, 46 Johnson street, where a reception was held. Captain and Mrs. Oliver were the re- cipients of numerous presents from
 their friends. They are still in the | city. but will leave on Tuesday for
 Chelsea. and will continue in the work
 of the Army Brigadier Lamb remain
 ed in the city until to-day, when he re-
 turned to his home in South Wethers- field.

WELL PAID FOR HER WORK.
Addressing Invitations Gives g New York Woman Handsome
 Income.

A New York woman of considerable social prominence, but limited means, succeeds in maintaining her position by novel industry that does not, in the opinion of "the set" place her out side the pale of responsibility. She addresses invitations and attends to correspondence as means of adding to her income. She has the eptree to most of the well-known houses in the city. Many of her patrons consider it an unusual favor to have their invita- tions go out to the world addressed in her unmistakable chirography. Some of them are never able to be in- vited to the houses that she goes to, says New York exchange.
 She realizes how much some of her patrons appreciate her services and her prices are high--much higher than any other persons charge for the same service. She makes avery good living out of this rather arduous work and her time is. much occupied.
 It is familiar saying that persons who are most occupied by social duties are most punctilious in discharging them promptly. This shows itself strikingly in custom that developed first this season.
 It is now considered the smartest usage by persons who devote thought to such matters to leave cards the day after large or elaborate entertain- ment. It is not expected, of course, that the hostess will be seen. That is now the least part of a call. But it is good form to leave cards the day after.
