WATERLOO MUSEUM.
Famous Collection of Relics Will Go
Under Auctioneers Hammer.

Collectors all over the world will
hear with interest that Waterloo Mu-
scum of Relics and the Grand Museum
hotel are destined to undergo the pro-
sale fate Of being knocked down" to
the highest bidders at Brussels by No
tary Ectors in conjunction with No
tary Brabant Of Ohain, near Waterloo,
says the Pail Mall Gazette.
The nucleus Of the museum was
formed by Edward Cotton, who fought
in the great battle under Lord Angle
sey, Seventh Hussars, between 1915
and his death in 1S4s. From time to
time the collection has been increas-
ed by gifts from Waterloo officers
and many other individuals, until 1t
has become unique Of its kind.
There are upward Of 5000 objects in
the collection, including weapons and
accoutrements Of every description,
engravings, photographs and books.
One of Napoleon's camp kettles, stamp
ed with the imperial IN" and the
word voyage" has always been re-
garded by visitors with much curiosity,
as have the gold and silver crosses Of
the Legion Of Honor and Napoleon's
silver spurs (taken from his carriage),
stamped with a crown and IN"
A case containing coins and snuff
box, with q portrait OF the Duke OF
Wellington taken at Paris, was the gift
to Cotton of Major Anstruther, Eigh-
teenth Hussars (1S47). A medal with
a portrait of the emperor was given
as a prize at Bruges in 1872.
The collection is rich in French ca
giles, crowns, grenades, bugles, belts,
collar straps, bride bits, cannon balls,
lances, swords and helmets; British
cavalry carbines and pistols and in
fantry muskets; skull and bones Of
British soldier; a tibia with a bullet
under the knee and a hip bone with
bullet in It; a walking stick which be-
longed to General Belliard when he
was serving as a "ranker" with the
Grand Army" in Russia; to mention
a few of the treasurer Of the collec-
ton, which, from the first to last mas
been Viewed by more than a million
visitors Of all nationalities.
There can hardly fail to be keen
competition for these genuine relics of
the celebrated battle, which broke the
power Of the great" emperor as that
of Spain smashed and pulverized"
the forces Of Napoleon III.
Cotton wrote "A Voice from Water
loo," and the authors rights Of this
volume will be sold with the relics,
some at least Of which may be found
hereafter in French military museums.

FARM SCHOOLS IN BAVARIA.
Travelling Teachers, Who Form Clubs
and Deliver Lectures.


I'm order to promote agricultural in
terest the kingdom Of Bavaria has es-
tablished agricultural schools in al
most every town." said Franz ]. Ho-
fauer Of Munich, Germany, to a Wash
ington Herald reporter.
These schools are in charge of
teachers who, in addition to an acad-
emic education, must be versed in
botany, geology, chemistry, physics,
zoology and natural history. At a
time when nothing is doing in the
fields, from November to March, these
schools are open, and the peasants for
a nominal fee can attend courses on
cultivation and fertilization Of the soil,
the proper rotation Of crops on the
same land, the best sources for good
seeds, irrigation and the raising of
stock. They are made acquainted
with improvements and new inven-
tions in agricultural implements, the
adoption Of which can be recommend
ed. They are taught the rudiments Of
bookkeeping and other commercial
knowledge essential for the up-to-d date
farmer.
I'm the spring, after these farmers
have returned to their work In the
fields it becomes the duty of the
teachers who instructed them during
the winter to travel from county to
county and to act as advisers to the
farmers. Much good results from the
travels Of these teachers. BY practi-
cal suggestion to the farmers they In
duce them to make valuable improve
ments in the cultivation Of their farms.
1.-The wandering teacher helps to
form cooperative clubs for the joint
interests Of a number Of farmers in
one district. From time to time the
teacher has to lecture in these clubs
on any subject which might prove of
interest to the members. These visits
and lectures to the different districts
are entirely free to the people, since
the state assumes all expenses. There
is probably no other country In the
the state for its rural inhabitants as Is
the case in Bavaria. Other German
states have these agricultural schools,
but their teachers are not sent in such
a practical way direct to the places
where they can do the most good, as
is done in Bavaria. The results Of this
commendable care have been very
gratifying"

EARLY BALlOONlNG.
First Ascension In Great Britain Was
Made BY IYtler in 1884.


Made BY Tytler in 1884.
The first practical flights in balloons
made by the Montgolfiers created a
feeling of insecurity in England that
has hardly been exceeded by the
flights Of Count Zeppelin in his diri-
gible airships. The balloon was a
French invention; might 1t not be
used as a means of invasion by the
natural enemies Of Britain?
In this connection it may be recalled
that the first balloon ascension made
in Britain was by James Tytler,
Scotchman, who afterward was
newspaper man in the United States,
who died in 1906 at Salem, Mass,
where he conducted a paper for sew
eral years.
Tytler was the son of a clergyman
Of the Church of Scotland, says the
Indianapolis News. He had been edu-
Gated as surgeon, but adopted liter
ature as a profession, and was the
principal editor of the first edition Of
the British Encyclopedia. He lived in
Edinburgh, Scotland, and made his
first ascent at that place, August 27,
1884. This ascent was extra hazard
Gus, as he employed the dangerous and
unmanageable Montgolfier principle of
hot air. His car was common crate
used for packing earthenware. His
stay in the air was not Of long dura-
ton, and he did not rise above 300
feet, did not travel more than half a
mile and came suddenly to the ground.
For a wonder, Tytler was uninjured
and in the records Of sky flights this
Scotchman, afterward a citizen of the
United States, has the credit of being
the first man to make an ascension in
Great Britain.
The second ascent in Great Britain
was made by Vicent Lunardi, an at
tache of the Neapolitan Embassy at
London, who sailed from the artillery,
ground at Moorsfelds, Sept. Is, 1884.
He travelled some distance and made
creditable landing. The excitement
caused by this flight exceeded the
power of words to describe. Lunardi
claims that on this occasion he saved
a mans life for a jury hastily brought
in a verdict of mot guilty" in the trial
of a notorious highwayman that they
might rush out OF court to see the
Lunardi balloon. His success was due
to the suggestion of celebrated
chemist, George Fordyce, who inform
ed him Of the buoyant nature Of hy-
drogen gas and explained it's manu-
facture. He adopted the suggestion
and was the first to use this gas in
stead of hot air. But as an aeronaut
Tytler had preceded him nineteen
days, and while Tytler was being over
Yhelmed by the jeers of his compa-
triots Lunardi, the Paul Bleriot of the
day, came to Edinburgh in 1885 and
was received with overwhelming en-
thusiasm.

BUILDINGS REVEAL THE
CONTRACTORS HEART

The observer of buildings may read
with ease many a secret of the build
er's heart. whether it be pride. ambi-
ton. hypocrisy or solid worth. The
apartment building that is built to
SELF Is easier to read than some struc-
lures which are the expression of com
posite thought. There is q good ex-
terror appearance, halls heavy with
style" with tiled floors. marble walls
n massive chandeliers. But inside
the apartments, on every hand. there
are evidences of a conscious intention
to skfnp and neglect even ordinary
standards of good carpenter work.
How unwittingly does the builder rear
this projection of his inmost character?
Would it restrain him 10 know that
others regarded his work as an open
confession of the very things he would
prefer to hide? 1t might not change
ms character, but 1t could cause him
to make such a building as he would
ike to be thought of as corresponding
to in character. If this method of in
.terpreting buildings were to be popu-
larized it might raise the standards Of
the industry. Our contribution to this
would be a proverb, to pass cur
wherever buildings are contem-
plated: "A building is a confession in
stone. "-Colliers.

FLOWERS
IN PROPULSION IN
SHOP AND STREET
Floral Display This Year Said
to Be Greater Than Ever
Before.
BLOOMS AND POTTED
PLANTS EVERYWHERE
Extra Preparations Made by
Churches for Decorations, but
White Lilies Will Prevail.

These are busy times for the florists,
There is nothing but hustle and hustle
in their shops. for no matter how often
they are solicited to do otherwise, peo-
pie are bound to wait until the last
minute before giving their orders for
flowers and decorations. In conse-
quence prices go up and late deliveries
result. Newarkers are assured, how
ever, by local florists hat they are pre-
pared for this emergency.
The window displays are beautiful
indeed. Probably never before has
Their been such a variety of flowers and
color shown in the exhibits. There are
to be seen great hampers of special
plants, roses, lilies, azalias and flowers
in and out of season.
Probably the biggest part of the floral
Easter trade Is the orders from the
churches for decorations. This year
these orders have ben more extensive
than ever. The requests for palms.
which are in practically, all Instances
rented for the occasion, are greater than
- pONuiidi ichtuTc Vi the 0lS-
play in the churches is the absence of
coloring. Florists say that nothing but
white potted and cut flowers are de,
sired, and this would result in an utter
lack OF tone. if it were not relieved by
the green background of the palms.
The churches that have made extra
ordinary preparations for decorations
are: st. Luke's. First Presbyterian.
