along those lines. His friends entertained that expectation but he and they have given it up. Just now there is nothing

 Mrs. Astor's ball on Monday night was. of course the grand affair of the season. Mrs. Astor has never been in better form than this winter. She is looking stouter. and 1t is very becoming to her. She is regular in her attendance at the opera and she has been entertaining a few friends here and there, but giving no large af- fairs. One ball at Mrs. Astors does not differ from another. Sometimes there are a few more names added to the list. but Mrs. Astor only once In some years makes any direct changes. Two years ago she revised the list but for all that 1t remains very much the same as in years gone by. The names are identical and the only diff ference is that they are borne by younger generation-by the sons and daughters of those who used to be Mrs. Astor's guests when the twin. houses on Fifth avenue. and Thirty-fourth street were new and the pride of the town. Now and then Mrs Astor extends her hos pitality to some new people. It is like the drawing room at Buckingham Palace. Once at Mrs. Astors and you are estab- lished for life in New York society. The question has been. will the same list be used as was in force last summer at the famous Astor dance at Newport? The reply will he direct no. Newport was not gay There was not enough people there of the old set to give eclat to any entertainment and when Mrs. Astor ar ranged for a ball she allowed May Van Alen to ask and obtain invitations. Mrs. Astor always receives alone. You will meet her. In the drawing-room gowned superby, with all her magnificent jewels on. covering her neck and her head crowned with splendid tiara. As every one is late for entertainments. and as there was long opera on that night. there were few arrivals before midnight

AMERICAN TAILORING LAuoEp.
An English Tailor Writes About Our
 Style.

From the London Sartorial Art Journal
 I can say without fear of contradiction that in Chicago. as we'll as in other Amer ican cities. there is some of the finest wormankship produced I have ever seen. and so far as l could gather there Is no lack of 1t. The best journeymen tailors In Chicago are Swedes, Films and Germans, Irish tailors, however, are everywhere and az a rule are among the best I dare say there are many native Americans that are equally good. All of them to command work in the best trades, must be far superior as workmen to the jour neymen employed in England today.
 In America l found that tailoring is considered much more of science and more closely related to art than it is in England In the first place. the better class American q mean one of the mon- eyed class) is much more keen and par ticular about his clothes as a rule than our English customers are. There must not be a shadow of crease under the seat of his trousers. If there should be he will ask you why on earth you can not cut them to fit as clean under the seat as around the fork in front. In this there may be some reason. l can only say. and I speak honestly. I never saw such clean-fitting trousers in this respect as in America.
 That the Americans are exacting about their dress Is proved by gentlemen who come to us occasionally Whether Amer jeans or not. if they have lived in Amer ica any length of time, they are most ex- plicit in giving their orders about the special style in which their clothes shall be cut and got up generally The result must be ideal: nothing else will satisfy them. To this I attribute very largely the advanced stage to which American tailoring has attained

Unworthy Son.

Shakespeare's counsel, Look with thine ears'' becomes more picturesque than trustworthy if read in the light of a happening which the New York Tribune notes:
 During his recent visit to the Yellow stone park the President of the United States, who is a close student of Ameri- can dialects, thought fl- detected in the speech of the driver of the coach the re- zion from, which he hailed.
 You come from Missouri, do you not ?' asked MT. Roosevelt.
 The driver pulled in his four horses, set his foot with his brake and turned inn pressively toward the chief magistrate.
 MT President" he said, my father and mother once went to Missouri on visit. and they visited there twenty year. During thet time was born But I want to tell you right now thet I'm no derned Mssourian."

THE SAND
1t Was Used to Lower Huge Stones By
 the Ancinet Egyptians.

From the Engineering Record
 Many centuries ago in Egypt it was customary to bury the mummies of distinguished persons in sarcophagus which was protected by an enormous stone slab. For long time the man ner in which these slabs were handled was the cause of much speculation among scientists. A few years ago, as mentioned in the Engineering Record of September 6, 1902, it was found that these huge blocks of stone were .ow- cred into place by use of sandboxes. The cover stone was first held on rude masonary piers until the sarcophagus could be placed below it in a recess in the floor of the chamber. Enormous Jugs on the slab, projecting into verti- cal recesses in the walls of the cham Der, were then propped on vertical tim bers, which rested at their base in holes filled with sand. A rude arrange ment of orifices enabled this sand to be removed in a uniform manner
 When everything was ready, the tenn porary masonry supports were taken from below the stone, the orifices were opened. and the sand was allowed to flow out In this way the slab set tied slowly into place and the tomb was sealed against all intrusion, except that of the modern archaelogist with his ample facilities for excavation.
 So far as is known at present. the sand.boxes in tombs near the pyramid of Onnos, dating from about 5S0 B. C., are the earliest examples of such de vices, The sand-box in general use to- day is well known. It Is usually an iron casting of cylindrical form, con taining perhaps foot depth of sand, placed under the posts of the centers of masonry arches or some similar structure. It is possible to strike cen ters carefully and expeditiously by al lowing the sand to flow out slowly.
