MISS pRExEG's FIANcE IS POOR.

Viscount Maidstone first met his American fiancee five months ago at d dance held at the home of Mir. and Mrs. Drexcl in Grosvenor square. says the New York American. He at once began to pay her court and there fol- lowed delightful walks and drives in the country. during which they behaved like two young, healthy and happy children.
 Viscount Maidstone lives in bachelor quarters within d block of the Drexel mansion. He is in business in the city and is poor. but bears an excellent reputation. Some years ago the Win chelsea family. which dates back to 1911. was very rich. but the family money was dissipated. The earl lives in modest seclusion near Merioneth, Wales. He has DO town house
 The wedding probably will take place late in June. The Drexels will go to America in April on a visit to arrange certain matters for the we'd ding. which will be held in West End church It will be attended by the most fashionable people and probably by royalty.
 The viscount is good looking and un- assuming. He is 25 years old and has not done anything noteworthy. He was a general favorite at Eton, and then spent three years at Magdalen college. oxford, where he was quite popular. He has no extravagant tastes, his father having brought him up as a poor mans son. He is keen golfer and takes great interest in the terri torial army. He is a lieutenant in the Royal East Kent Yeomanry.
 It would surprise no one if the Drex- el wealth was used in restoring to it's former splendor Kirby hall. the pictur- esque Winchelsea family seat in North amptonshire. which has long been practically dismantled.

Made Of Two Powerful Explosives
knsaded Into Paste.
Cordite is the outcome Of the strange
paradox that II you mix together two
powerful explosives the result is a
smokeless slow burning powder. Nj
troglycerin and gun cotton mixed to-
gether with a little petroleum jelly
make cordite. 1t is curious to see the
two deadly explosives being kneaded
together into a paste by women with
the same Unconcern as dough is knead-
cd for bread. Indeed. machines sini-
lar to those used in bakeries take w
the work and hnead the buff colored
cordite paste TO. seven hours. Then it
Is forced through molds and issues in
long cords-hence the name cordite-
the thickness Of which Is varied ac-
cortiin- to the weapon in which it is
to be used.
For big guns cordite Is half an inch
thick and cut into lengths Of thirty
seven inches. Rather more than a
thousand OF these cordite sticks pack
cd in two bundles make up the car
fridge fer twelve inch gun. For the
rife corlitc is pressed into very thin
string. like the finest macaroni. and
sixty of these strands one inch and a
half long make the neat little bundle
which lies inside the cartridge case.
For Some European armies cordite Is
made in fiat thin strips like whale
bone. Kept away from fire. cordiie
can be handled with impunity.-Lon-

which refused labor unions the right

The decision created Juror In la

demand that a bill be passed giving
them the right to use their money for
political purposes. Such bill
would go through the Commons al,
