method for producing the MAYORS IoF
which his brands are noted. This
mixture is called the cuvee, and IL
stands again until April or june
when the filling of bottles begins.
The rapidity with which the bottllng
is accomplished by the many work
men is marvellous. AS the bottles are
filled, corked and wired they are low
cred in baskets, by system OF end
less chains, to the caves below, where
they are stacked in precise order IN
very compact and solid mass, yet
so that each separate one may be
taken out without disturbing the 9TH
ers. The bottles are now left from one
to two years, when they are put IN
small racks, necks downward, and for
two or three months each bottle Is
given daily a gentle little shake by
an experienced workman. In this
way the sediment is brought gradu-
ally to the cork and the wine becomes
clear. One man can shake about &c.
900 bottles in a day.
Then comes the removal Of the sedi-
ment. By some firms an ingenious
system Of freezing the neck OF the
bottle is used to accomplish this and
the sediment is taken out in q solid
mass. By many others q most skill
full manner of pressing the thumb
over the open mouth, letting the sedi-
ment out and losing very little Of the
wine is the usual method. This re-
quires great care, as no deposit must
be left and as little wine as possible
lost. The men who perform this
work receive SO to 81 day.
Last Of all comes the sweetening,
recorking, labelling and packing. The
wine, having lost none of its sugar
in this process of fermentation, ROW
receives a small quantity of liqueur,
which is pure sugar mixed either with
brandy or with the wine itself. Each
firm, at this stage of the process,
keeps it's methods a secret. The
quantity of sugar or sweetening is va
ried for different countries. English
taste requires the least sugar. The
OAASCO 0tdtCS COuCS ACAL III tu0 Qudu-
tity of sweetness preferred, and
France third. The more northern
countries prefer much sweeter wine.
The work of measuring out the
sweet liqueur is done by small boys.
The corking and wiring are mostly
done by women, who receive about 50
cents a day and their portion of red
wine. The corks are put in by ma
chimes. These corks cost as much
as four cents apiece.
The output Of champagne now av.
erages more than 100000 bottles
a year and there usually is stored in
the great cellars a reserve supply of
more than 100000. 900 bottles. There
are more than thirty great houses in
the champagne district. either at
Rheims, at Ay or at Epernay. The
character and color of the different
brands vary. This is due partly to the
grapes and partly to the blending. Be.
cause one wine is Of a tawny gold
and another pale as spun silk, It does
not imply one is better or worse than
the other. These champagne houses
are more or less connected by family
ties. The best Of friends socially. In
business they are as jealous as only
cousins can be. Families die out. but
firms continue.

EIGHT VICTIMS FALL
TO ATLANTA RIPPER
Negroes in a State of Terror
Over the Staying of MuIatto
Women Saturday Nights.

ATLANTA, Ga. July 3.-The eighth
weekly victim OF Atlanta's Jack the
Ripper came to her death Saturday
night at the same hour and IN almost
technically the same manner in which the
other seven mulatto women were killed.
This eighth victim is Lena Sharpe. aged
about forty years. The woman was
found dead with her head almost severed,
and her body horribly mutilated.
Soon afterward the daughter Of the dead
woman. who had gone in search Of her,
was attacked by a negro whom she had
never seen before. The daughter. too,
was badly cut. but managed to make he..
escape. and il is thought she will re-
cover. She describes her assailant as a
large black man, powerfully built and
neatly dressed She asserts that he
spoke to her and attempted to engage her
In conversation. She took fright, she
says and as she started to run was
stabbed in the back.
Negroes in a State of Terror.
The police are more than ever mysti-
ned. and are working in the dark. Mean
time the entire negro population has be-
come terrorized. Last night there were
few negro women on the streets. Negro
preachers nave taken the murders for a
text, anu their congregations, always
emotional, have been worked up into
state of religious frenzy Negro cooks
and housemaids are refusing to work
after dark in cases where they have any
distance to go To their homes afterward.
Killings of negroes by negroes are fire.
quent enough saturday nights, when

~. ard Ii the murders had been of the
ordinary kind even series OF them would
have caused little stir among the blacks.
The eight killings of the eight past weeks
however. appear tC he the work of mad
man as methodical anu cunning as the
Jack the Ripper whose gruesome murders
In the Whitechapel district of London
over twenty years age startled the world.
The Atlanta ripper seems to possess
some knowledge of anatomy. The first
stroke Is always in a fatal spot and death
ID dealt out with absolute certainty. 1t
Is afterward that carving UP of the vic
tim-always in the same region of the
body-begins. The woman is then left to
weller in her blood in some dark, obscure
alley. sometimes the crime has not been
discovered until Sunday morning.
Not in a single instance has an ont
anC-out black woman been murdered in
the manner described; and the word has
gone forth among them that they are
safe.
1t would seem that all of the negroes
had been killed with the same instrument
razor or very sharp knife such as
surgeons use. Save in. one instance the
throat was cut from ear to ear, and the
wound was clean. No stab marks were
evident. All wounds were made as If the
victim had been seized suddenly, head
heid back and the blade drawn swiftly
across In horizontal direction The
1ugular vein was in each case completely
severed and death must have been ali
but Instantaneous.
