however, not to depreciation of abili

Of circumstances.
THE financial position of the various
states in Europe has so UNNECESSARILY
improved during the last 100 years
that they no longer need an intermedi
airy in contracting loans. Rival banks
have also done their share in bringing
to close the supremacy of the Roths
childs.
But if their autocracy in the money
world is ended their vast fortune re
mains and surpasses that of any OF
the American millionaires. Neither
Rockefeller nor Carnegie nor Aston

A German Explosive.

In Germany. where disappointment
has attended the employment of acety.
lene for illuminating purposes. use has
been found for the gas in the form Of
an explosive for blasting. Carbide OF
calcium in particles is inclosed in tin
cartridge. the upper part containing
water separated from the carbide by a
partition. At the top of the cartridge
is an electric percussion device. An
iron pin worked from outside Of the
cartridge perforates the partition and
allows the water to come in contact
with the carbide. This is effected by
a blow FIVE minutes before it is desired
to cause an explosion. At the end Of
that time, sufficient gas having been
developed in the cartridge. the electric
spark is fred and the explosion oc.
ours. The effect in blasting is said to
be the rending Of the rock with In.
Vulnerable cracks. so that the frag
ments are easily removed. - Boston

The Passing Of Hemp.

Not far distant is the day when
what was once a great and important
crop will have died down to nothing
ness--American hemp. Though raised
here since the earliest colonial days,
it is now passing into the limbo of
forgotten things. Cotton has replaced
hempen homespun for clothing and
steamers with wire rigging now plOw
the seven seas instead of wooden ships
rugged with hempen ropes. Most rope
now made is of abaca or Manila hemp.
Jute has replaced hemp for cotton
bale coverings. sacks. carpet warp,
webbing and twines, and perhaps
quite as important-hemp land can be
made to grow other and more profita-
bic crops. The more widely adaptable
cotton and the cheaper priced jute
have doomed the American hemp in
dustry York World.

GENERAL. DUMAS VANISHED.
Mystery Of a Missing Relative Of the
Great Novelist.


One of the most mysterious disap-
pearances on record is recalled by the
sale at public auction of the effects of
General Alexandra Dumas, relative
Of the great novelist. who has not been
seen for about year and a half.
In October, 1911. the general. who
was sixty eight years old and lived
quietly with his wife in the suburbs
Of Paris. left his home one afternoon
and vanished. The police and private
detectives searched the country and
seemed to make it clear that the miss
ing general could not have been muir
dered but voluntarily left his family
without giving any reason.
Traces of him have. it is supposed.
been found in Brussels and also in
Aix-la- Chapelle.
In spite of his age General Dumas
was at the disposition Of the minister
of war, and if he is still living he has
committed a serious offense in not let
ting the military authorities know his
whereabouts. Meanwhile his pension
is accommodating at the war Office The
general opinion seems to be that he Is
hiding abroad. although no reason is
assigned for his voluntary absence.
The case will soon be brought before
military tribunal on the ground of
the illegal absence Of the vanished
general He had brilliant career.
having served with distinction in the
Franco-Prussian war and also in the
Tonkin. Sudan and Dahomey cam
paigns. He is a grand officer Of the

A Spark Making Alloy,

1t is curious fact that when 70 pei
cent of cerium is alleged with 80 pei
cent of iron the metal thus produced
possesses the remarkable property OF
giving off a shower of sparks when
struck lightly by steel wheel. This
substance has been used for making
auto igniters for gas burners, miners
acetylene lamps and cigar lighters. II
has been proposed to utilize it for ig
hitting motor headlights and even to
employ it as substitute for electric
ignition in the cylinders.-Chicago Rec.

AN EMBEzzLER'S

Spectator DevoteS His Life
to Fighting a Wrong.

Raymond Nolan was eighteen when
he entered the service Of Il small bank
He was bright fellow. not only ready
to do his own work. but that of any
one else. He had been taught the
value of money and that the surest
way to start Il fortune was by saving.
Consequently each week when he drew
his salary he put aside certain amount
for this purpose.
Raymond was great favOrite with
Mr.. Porter. owner Of the bank. Seeing
that the youngster was in every way
fitted for promotion, he promoted him
as rapidly as vacancies occurred. At
each raise Of salary Raymond increas.

He bought bond paying per cent in

creased a little more rapidly. His at
tentiOn being called to certain shares
that were paying double the interest
he received on his bond. he changed
his investment. The shares not only
paid him the interest. but rose in value.
As yelr after year passed Nolan
found himself nearer to the amount he
had fixed upon for legitimate invest
nent Sometimes he would sink away
from it under depression Of securi-
ties. but usually upon reaction he
would find himself further ahead than
before. At one Of these depressions he
concluded to increase his investment,
accepting loan from his broker for
the purpose-in other words. buy on a
margin. Stocks were considered very
cheap and bound to have good rise.
As Nolan had his affairs arranged q
rise of five points would give him his

But. contrary to expectations. stocks
continued to depreciate. sinking in
stead Of rising five points. Then they
rested awhile. and another period Of
liquidation carried them down ten
points further On down they went till
Nolan found that he had lost his capt.
tai. His brokers' called on him for
''margin' and told him that if he did
not hand it in at once they would sell
him out.
This was turning point in Nolan's
career. He borrowed $1,000 from the
bank without reporting the loan.
Stocks went down. and he borrowed
more money.
One morning ten years after Nolan
had entered Mr.. Porter's service he
went to that gentleman's private Of

"Mr. Porter. some time ago at sud

my savings of years. believed that
there would soon be a rise that would

much more. | borrowed money from
the bank to use for margin. Stocks
have been still going down. and have
lost $4,000 of your money"
The president told him that the
shortage had been discovered: that the
bank had made other losses which
they might have weathered without
this one. AS it was. failure was un
avoidable.
