Kaiser's Porcelain Works Profitable

purchased the concern, kept on all
the employees and increased the
works, causing branches also to be
opened in other large cities of Ger
many. The king took a great per-
sonal interest in the artist part OF
the business; he examined the de-
signs and was careful in his selection
of the painters. Many of the patterns
ordered by him are still in use at the
present day and are in high favor
among connoisseurs.
Despite wars and wars alarms the
Berlin porcelain manufacture grew
and fiourished. It's turnover was
from 1853 to 1887, 2,18S,340 talers, the
net profits, which belonged to the
privy purse, amounting to 4b4,050
talers. The turnover of the Royal
Porcelain Works at the present time
is nearly 100000 marks annually. A
staff of experienced business men
now manage the great factory, the
best artists being employed. Berlin
ROYAL porcelain has attained a high
place in the world and is becoming
more and more appreciated. The
Seeer porcelain and the red Chinese
porcelain are perhaps the most gem
orally favored.
The Emperor has done much to
further the development of this in
dustry. His Majesty has made point
for many years past of giving beautl-
full specimens of Berlin porcelain as
gifts to his fellow monarchs and to
his friends on special occasions. The
Gear, the King of England, and the
King of Italy have received particu-
larly fine vases and table services
from the Emperor.

started for their honeymoon in

An aeroplane honeymoon is sure to
come, but so far the nearest approach
to one was in the case of Claude Gra-

to the country church in which he
was married.
At the same time honeymoons have
been already spent in the air. The

Iobn Glossinger, president OF the
Manhattan Briar Pipe Company, VINO,
tho limited States Tobacco journal
saws. is an authority on all sorts OIL
pipes, has written for that journal an
interesting piece of advice on how TO
care for a meerschaum pipe. Inc &C.
casion for his advice was recent
controversy among the ever ready
and voluntary correspondents OF the
daily newspapers, in which several
hits of what he calls careless advice
were given. He especially rejects the
old idea that a meerschaum pipe
should be tightly covered with buck
skin If it is to be colored to the deep
glossy brown so dear to the smoker
who thinks as much about the ap-
pearance of his pipe as he does about
the quality of tobacco which he puts
in it.
"The worst possible advice to a
meerschaum smoker is that he cover
the pipe with buckskin. and yet a
very great number of people believe
this to be imperative" says Mr.. Clos
singer, "Meerschaum Is porous

which 1t will color with nicotine or

BERLIN, Jan. 5.-Just 1856 years
ago, in 1863, Frederick the Great ac-
auired the Berlin Porcelain Works
for a sum of 225,000 talers (675,OOO
marks from the Berlin banker, Jo-
ham Ernest Gotzkowsky.
The factory was founded in small
way as early as 1850 by man named
Wegely, who, it is said, had contrived
to become possessed of the strictly
preserved secret of porcelain manu-
facture from an employee of a rival
firm. Wegely, however, gave up the
business after some years in conse-
uuence of the competition OF the
larger Nielsen works and sold 1t to
a Berlin modeler named Reicharo,
who had somehow or other acquired
the secrets of the Dresden manufac-
tory.
Not having the means to carry on
the business very long, Relcnaro sou
the whole plant and the secrets OF the
method to Gotzkowsky for 10000
ta1ers. being retained as manager by
the new purchaser. The banker,
owing to the troubled state OF times,
grew short of money, and not Wishing
TO see the undertaking to which ne
devoted so much time and energy
brought to an untimely end, ne ap-
pealed to the king.
Frederick the Great, as his DESCENT
ant Kaiser Wilhelm IL, was lover
of art and a good man OF business d.
the same time. He at once saw that
under hts protection the Berlin poree-
ioin manufacture would attain high

I'm the early seventies l was asso-
ciated with my brother, Jacob ID. COX,
who was at one time governor of Ohio
and at another member of the first
cabinet of President Grant. My bust
ness frequently took me into Detroit.
Our railroad had a terminal at De-
troit and we were planning an extern
sion of it across Canada to Niagara
Falls"
In this way the late Charles Finney
Cox. who for years was the treasurer
of the lines of the Vanderbilt systems
of railroads west of Buffalo, began
the narration to me of his first knowl-
edge of Captain Eber B. Ward, of
Detroit. who at his death, in 1875,
left an estate valued at nearly $6.oOO.-
COO. He was the father of Clara
Ward, who gained international
notoriety as the wife of Prince de
Chimay.
~ used to hear a great deal about
CAPTAIN Ward" said Mr.. Cox. He
was a poor boy and he began life on
n little vessel which sailed through
the lakes. He was not content to be
mere sailor himself, so he gradually
accumulated money enough to BUY
sloop and then as he made money ne
added to his fleet, until at last ne
was recognized all through the West
as the greatest and most influential
owner and manager of shipping that
sailed through the great lakes.
81 was told that just about the
close of the Civil War Captain Ward
suddenly abandoned his steamboat
and sailing vessel business on the
Great Lakes and turned his attention
to the manufacture of Bessemer steel
He was so successful that he estap-
lished mills at Chicago, and he
actually made the first steel rails
which were ever produced in the
United States.
Captain Ward changed suddenly
and absolutely from his position as a
master of navigation through the
Great Lakes to that of a manufac-
turer of steel, and especially of steel
rails.
Some years later / became asso-
ciated with the Vanderbilts in their
railroad system, and it suddenly oc-

an extraordinary similarity between

SOME ODD HONEYMOONS

The modern honeymoon is much
shorter than that of our grandparents.
Still, a few years ago a German gen.
tleman named Scharlieb and his bride
spent a three years honeymoon.
on their wedding day they left Ber-
lin on a tour round the world, which
included a visit to every European
capital, and 1t was just three years
before they came home again. IL was
stated at the time that they had trav-
eled over 10000 miles and spent nearly

A honeymoon in jail! Sounds un'-
thinkable, but it has happened more
than once.
A couple were married in Sunder-
land, and the wedding festivities were
so festive that before night the pair
were locked up on a charge of caus-
ing wilful damage to property.
They were unable to pay the fine
imposed next day and were taken to
jail, the "Black Maria" being followed
by large crowd.
Dover once saw the novel sight OF a
soldier being married while under es-
cort as a prisoner.
The day before his wedding he was
charged with military offense. but
his commanding officer, on learning
the facts, decided to allow him to be
married under escort, on condition
that after the ceremony he should

ELECTRICITY ABOARD SHIP

In the field of naval Architecture
the electric propulsion and electric
steering of ships are attracting an in
creasing measure of interest, says the
Electrical World. Afioat as well as
ashore the advantages of electric
current are still constantly unfolding,
revealing economies and conveniences
of operation unknown with the ele-
mentary forms of mechanical propul
sion. On board ship electricity early
found recognition as a safe means of
lighting poorly ventilated quarters
where fire is always a dread menace.
Close thereafter followed the use of
electric heating.
But, aside from small boats pro-
PEELED by battery power, electric cur
rent was first suggested as means
for ship propulsion, in order to couple
the inherently high speed of the
steam turbine with the stubbornly
slow velocity at which the screw pro-
peller has its highest efficiency The

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
Two Milionaires Whoa Careers Were Similar

troit and Chicago, and that of Com
modore Vanderbilt. I don't think 1
ever heard anyone speak of this re-
markable similarity, but / myself
have often thought of it.
Commodore Vanderbilt, like Cap
tain Ward, was a very poor boy, and
he began life as a ferryman, rowing
passengers from his home on Staten
Island across to the mainland of New
Jersey. He was shrewd and saving,
and when the commercial practical
bility of steam as a motive power for
boats had been demonstrated the COM
modore began to invest in steamboats,,
at first in a small way, quite as small
as were Captain Wards first invest
ments in little sailing vessel on the
Great Lakes.
"Then Commodore Vanderbilt
bought and built more steamboats,,
exactly as Captain Ward did and at
about the same time. At last the
commodore was recognized as the
steamboat king of the East. Sud
denly and at about the same time
that Captain Ward abandoned his
vessels for steel making, Commodore
Vanderbilt absolutely abandoned his
business as a steamboat owner and
operator and turned his attention ex-
cluSlNSly 10 IdllTOduS. AS SdPtaiii
Ward was the first to make steel
rails, so Commodore Vanderbilt was
the first to work out completely the
plans for unifying and controlling a
trunk line stretching from Chicago
to the Atlantic seaboard.
"I am sure there is no parallel to
these two cases, but there was one
point of difference. Commodore Van
derbilt's estate was approximately
a hundred millions. Captain Wards
was approximately six millions.
81 might speak of another rather
forced resemblance. Captain Ward s
daughter married a prince of one OF
the courts of Europe. Two of Conn
modore Vanderbilt's great-grand
daughters married-one a European
prince and the other an English
duke"
