CENTRAL PARK OBELISK
A Student of Mortars Bays the Struc
ture is Mode of Concrete.
Mr. U. Cnmmingn, In a lottor to Tbe Scien
tific American concerning the composition of
the Egyptian obeliak in Central Park, hats:
My reaaon for belioving tho obelisk to bo a
mass of concrete trou follows : I havo apent
a life tirno in the inanufacturo of limoa and
cenioiita, ami in tho study of inorUrs, con-
crcU-m, etc., and aftor thirty yearn njient in thin
line, it scorns m though I ought to know coti-
cn to when I boo it
I went around on the back siJo of the
otoliak, cliinod over tho wiro feuco, inonntod
tho masonry work, took out a utrong magnify
ing glasH and a sharp poinUid Hteel, and went
at it. I could hco what looked at a disUnco to
i a gray, reddiMh, uniform tint, wm, on closn
inspection, granito broken into I'iecoe front the
size of a walnut down to corn or wheat nizo,
and tin-no broken Htoneri were intimutely mixed
with Homo bituminous matter, Llack and Beatnv,
Homothiiig of tho nature of asnhaltiiin. Tho
bla.-k substance and brokon stono wero thor
oughly mixe.1 with hydraulic lime; by the latter
I do not moan hydraulic ceuiont, but Imi't
which coutainfd aiiftioieiit clay to ren.lor it
hydraulic, but not onough to prevent it from
slaking if kept under weight eight or ten days.
vv 1 1 It my HttHJl point 1 could plow out this hy
draulic limn, and with my knifo I cut and
shaved the black unbalance, which lay in all
coiiceivahlti ways, tint grain in Home bit pre
senting their lint eidee, Homotimcs their ends.
KomelunoH vertical, sometimes horizontal.
allowing it to have Imjoii mixed up with tho
lime ami brok.ru stoii" haphazard. I think, if
I had had time enough and no policeman
noso around and bother one. I could have
taken out a bit of granite, with my stool.
1 ho liciroglyphic show, aa plain as any
thing can show, that they were formed by
fastening tho proper form on the inside of the
box into which the concrete wan resumed.
and when the concrete bad hardened
sufficiently, the boxes wore taken away, and
the pattern of the hieroglyphice were with
drawn, leaving their imprtmsiou on the face of
the concrete, exactly as is done every day by
manufacturers of artificial ntono. Huch work
cannot be mintakon for work done by the
chisel by any one familiar with that clans of
work. Every lettor is made to 'draw,' and in
no place could I And a spot among all tho
hieroglyphics where a pattern would not
draw.'
Such a structnro, mado in concreto as I have
described, could bo safely carried up at tho
rate or irom 14 to 10 inches per uay, and so
positive am I that it iu concreto,
that I would not herniate to enter
iuto a contract to erect exact dupli
cates of it in any city for $15,000
each. 1 think I can hud granite iu Connecti
cut of the name color, tho bituminous matter
in Now York, and the hydraulic linio in Buffalo
and with those make just as good obeliak a at
were ever turned out in Egypt As to the dura
bility or the obelisk in Central
park, of which much has been writ
ten lately. I think it will stand for
ages where it is. Some portions may get loose
that were not perfectly cemented, but as a
whole the material is of that class that will
outlast anything; else we have.
The Hteamshlp ot the Future.
Tho coining steamship, according to Sir.
J) liven' a belief, will measure feet in length
by 73 feet beam and 55 feet depth of hold, and
havo a grogs tonnage of 4,000. Sho will carry
KOO first-class passengers, 2,000 in tho steerage
and 500 totia of mail r r.'i express matter, will
make twenty-four round trips from America
to England yearly, and a single tripsin five
days. Tho coet of operating, it is claimed.

the veesol just forward of tho storn post. The
double misfortune of breaking a shaft and
having the rudder and rudder post carried
way bv the detachment of the main screw will
uot even hinder Mr. liHven's mantless ships
from going triumphantly on their way. In
such au event the auxiliary screws will be
pushed out and the water tight shutters, cov

How Imperial Quests Are Received.
Philadelphia Times.
Berlin court journalists relate with touching
sympathy the exhausting labors undergone by
tho crown princo on the occasion of the silver
wedding festivities iu receiving his own and
his imperial father's guests at the railway
stations. Every royal personage who travels
abroad must be received in a uniform such as
he himself wears, and as wholo crowds of kings
and princes and things come to town, the un
fortunate host is kept busy changing his drcHs,
like a man in a pantomime. An Austrian
prince would arrive bv one train, and when the
crown prince, in an Austrian uniform, had re
ceived him, he must quickly got into a Russian
uniform and drive back to the station to meet a
Russian prince, and so ou, till all his guests
had been duly roeeived. A modern prince of
high rank has as many costumes as a leading
touor, and ou busy days he has to make as
many changes. But then a prince doos not

A tse for Chinese Flirt (ills.
New York Sua.
A down-town dealer in Chinese and Japanowe
goods recontly advortised that he had for sale
large quantity of hair from China. A re
porter asked him if the hair was collected in
tho same manner as the European article, from
tho abundant tresses of peasant girls. "Xo,"
h replied, "the dealers procure it mostly from
prisons. Oae of the punishments feared by
some Chinese criminals is the deprivation of
their pigtails. Thev would rather commit
hari-kari than lose the precious appendage,
especially if it is very long. As there are
many criminals in China, there is no scarcity
of hair. Many Chinamen without either money
or uperstitona regdrd for their, pigtails part
with them, fcr a small consideration. I guess
few paoplo who wear the hair ever think that
it may havo !een oucc a part of the pigtail of a
Chinese bank director who had his head cut
off for misappropriating the funds of the
bank."

The Electrician.
An employe of the Eastern Extension Tele
graph company, stationod at Capo Bolimao,
Manila, had a narrow escape tho other day,
having taken ten grains of sugar of lead
in mistake for a similar quantity of
ammonia. He telegraphed for advice
to the Hong Kon.g telegraph offioo. Dr. Hart
igan, of that city, came down to tho office, and
sut him advice, jper cable, which resulted in
his recovery. The distance between Hong
Kong and Cape Bolimao is about 555 miles -Probably
this is tho first time that a doctor has

Baked Reaua la Itontou Style.
New York Tiibune.
Last Monday Miss Parloa began her morning
lesson at her school of cookery by giviug di
rections for baking beans, in the Boston style
A lart of hcaus had been freed of stones and
dirt, washed clean and soaked over night in
cold water. The water was poured off and
enough warm water put in to cover the beans.
A pound of rather loan salt pork was added,
and the dish was allowed to boil moderately
for half an hour. The beans were then turned
into a colauder, and three quarts of cold water
were poured over them. Half tho beans wera
put in a bean pot, then the pork, with ts rind
scored, and then the rest of the beans,
aud over then) wait poured a mixture composed
f a teaspoonful of muctard, a tablearoonful
of nola9es and a cupful of water. Enough
boiling water to juat cover the beans was
added, aud they were put into a s'.ow oven to
cooU slowly for tea hoim. Miss Parloa said
that it is this slow cooking, with the occasional
addition of a little water so as to keep the
beans nearly covered all the time, which makes
the dish nico The use of mustard lessens the
liability of distress from eating of the beans.
Whore pork iq not likod, two pounds of corned
btf can be substituted. When ready for serv
ing, the beans have a rich brown color and are
moist and whole. In this instance the testing
of the dish was postponed till the next day, be
cause, as already remarked, many honra were
needed for the cooking.

Atlantic Monthly.
May I be pardoned tho Impertinence, but 1
have of late taken some pains to ascertain ths
age of tho heroine the heroine of tho contem
porary noveL Examining carefully, in several
instances, tho data furnished by her sponsors,
I have sorted out and tabulated certain general
facts, lhese fact, show hor ago to lie, never
under twenty; rarely two-and twenty ; nsually
from twonty-fonr to twenty-soven, twouty
eight, and even thero-abovo, giving an average
of twenty-five (plus). While pursuing those
numerical calculations, I am closely observing
the heroino's face. Theri aro no "tolling linee"
upon the brow or about tho eye, and her color
still faultless. It is to be noted, more
over, that sho ro tains in her manner a wonder
ful measure of youthful vivacity and frankness.
I am lar from caviling at the happy easo and
gracefulness with which sho carrios the weight
of hor years. This is an wo would have it;
but tho singularity of tho case ai pours, when
hor a 40 is contrastud with that of her predeces
sor, tho heroine of tho old-fuhioiiod noveL
'J ho latter is always a jeune Ii lit-, who, when
the narrative of her fortune in concluded, has
scarcely more thau crossed the threshold of
the twenties. Uuatic and unschooled, or ac
complished and sophisticated; phlegmatic or
piquant, timid or audacious whatever her
temperament and behavior, she is invariably
lovely and of tender ago. What writer of
liction in its early days would have lm-scutcd.
or what reader would havo accepted, a heroine
who uiu noi possess mo two cnier requisites,
iwjaury ana yoiitnr ur beauty, it is still ex
poctcd the hcroino shall have a certain allow
auce, as a pair of fine eyes or a "sensitive
mouth." As to youth, tho restriction no
longer holds. Why tho changed fashion
1 account for it lu only one
way: tho metaphysical tendency of the moder
novel seems to roquiro that the character "
central importance shall intorost us subie t
ively. This character must be subtended bv
actual experience, ripe feeling, nettled convic
tions, ami a ciever vein or casuistry. Now, as
these do not conmst with the idea of extreme
youth, and as cons'stency and realism aro the
special jewels of the present fiction school, it
follows that we havo a heroine who. to say
the least, is "no longer young." Again, con
versation is, as every reader knows, an asset! -
tial element of the contemporary novel; and
analysis would probably show the following
ratio: Conversation, including speculative in
terpolation by the author, three Darts: moi-
aetn, one. vv uat, in tno present exigency.
were a silent or monosyllabic heroine ? The
heroine is she who converses subtilelv, saying
lar more man -meets tho oar." adroitly touch
ing both the heights and deeps of experience.
The conversation of school girls is not wont to
no or mis order; iieuco tho reigning heroine a
maiurcr age.
Why I Hate a Man Milliner.
Clara Bolle in Cincinnati Enquirer.
Corinna is doad. Speaking in tbe abstract,
I am not sorry. He was a man milliner.
There ought to be no men milliners. One of
my reasons is that, in common fairness, a few
lines of business ought to bo loft to women.
Another and more important one is that mou
shouldn't be let into the mysteries of tho fe
maie toilet, it is enough for them to see
and admire the result, without knowing the
processor We all know that tho potency of
effects is Often im-palrgd by a disclosure of tho
means. If we know that a certain beauty spot
in a picturo was produced by two or throe
commonplace scratches with a stub of a brush,
or by a bold Bplash of paint, it would lose half
its charms lor us. Thus it is with bonnets.
Intricate creations in millinery are dazzling
and puzzling to male eyes. Would they be so
if the obe. ver knew exactly how they were
mailer 1 lierelore, 1 hold that the putting to
gether of women's wear should be as secret as
ireetuasourv, so far as the admission of men
to any kiiowlodo of tho business is concerned.
Xtiat is why I hate a man-milliner, and can
not mourn when he died. Hpeaking of men
in connection with women's clothes, tailors
aro being encouraged to meddlu with those af
fairs. There is a notion that they can 1:1 ike
a waist tit bettor than an ordinary dross-iiiMker
can; but the real superiority of their work lieu
in tho pressing and finish. Tailor-m.tde suits
of cloth have a distinctive look, and are ex
tremely popular. Objection is sometimes
made by seusitivo women to beiny measured by
men. A male dress-maker has introduced a
machine to obviate this difficulty. It consists
of a sectional jacket, with more tabs, hooks
Alwl DFfla rill m lu.tnl tanaa Anl.ninrMi
and other adjustable devices, thau I could un
dertake to describe. He puts it on von.
lets it out here, takes it iu there, and
finally gets it fastened quite suugly all over.
Theu ho consults tho figures on tho tapes, re
cords them in his book, and you havo heen
thoroughly measured for tho waist of your
dress. I took a friend with me on tho occasion
wlron this machine was applied to me, just as
though I was going to a dentist or some other
disagreeable operator. But there was nothing
unpleasant about my experience. I was sent
iuto a dressing-room to remove my dress-waist
and put on the patont one. Then I emerged
fully incased m the latter, and had to submit
to no handling whatever.
A Fruit Which Succeeds) Kvery-
where
Chicago Times.
Now, tho finest, the most luscious, if norths
most beautiful of all tho fruits, can be pro
duced without difficulty, not only in every
stato and territory in tho country, but in every
country on the continent from Patagonia to
Labrador. It flourish.! iu a wild stato in tho
lowest valleys and up to the lino of perpetual
biiow on the mountains. It grows In regions
that enjoy perpetual summer and in places
whore tho snow covora tho ground throo
foiirths of the year. The plant is almost as
hardy as grass, and of tea contends with it foi
tho possessioti of tho soil. The soeds are
often carried long distances by birds,
and sprung up in advance at the
coming of snow. Plants aro washed
down bv streams, and tako root in the soil
where they are deposited. They accommodate
themselves to all sorta of toil and climate.
Florida, Montana, Maii.o and California each
claim to produce thi. fruit to tha highest de-
free of perfoctlsn. The truth is, it is pro
uced in each in a condition so noar perfection
that the people belieyg it cannot be equalled
anywhere else.
Although dissominated like the grasses and
weeds and growing wild in great luxurience,
no plant useful to man is capable of
greater improvement by cultivation. The
size, color, and flavor of the fruit can
be changed almost as the grower de
sires. The plant is adapted to field, gar
den, or hot-house cultivation. It oan be
propagated by seeds, runners, or divisions of
the root No plant producing fruit multiplies
so fast and novor comes into bearing so quickly.
One plant producing fruit this season will form
fifty plants that will produce fruit next year.
This fruit, the strawberry, which is produced
so easily and is so excellent; is' noglected to a
greater extent than any frnitthatis only frown
in favored localities and with extreme difficulty.
Many persons set out orchards qf apple, pear,
plum and cherry trees and wait a dozen years
for them to produce fruit before they take the
proper steps to secure a supply of strawberries,
in fact, on the majority of farms no attempt is
ever made to raise the plant that tempts the
appetite as few things can.

Anecdotes) of Artists.
Lippincott's Magazine.
C , while walking along a country lane
with his color box in hand, had met a native
who took him for a spectaclo vender
and inquired the price of his wares. "I am
out of spectacles," replied the artist, and went
his way. Kext day, returning to finish his
sketch, lie met the same man and was again
a.sktd the price of "glasses." "The fact is,
friend," said he, "I don't sell spectacles."
"What dew yeou sell them?" queried the
rustic. By way of reply, the artist, opened his
box and showed the "neatly-ranged vials of
color. The querist gave but a look, and ex
slaimed in inimitable to lies of disgust, "Homus
jpathy doctor, by thunder!"
D called at a farm house one morning
and asked permission to make a picture in the

(J claimed Uie honor of having sketched a
queen. She was scrubbing the floor of the
village grocery at the time, and aa the sketch
was completed a negro lounged in with the
news that King Pharoh of tbe Motitank tribe
was dead. "That makes me queen !" exclaimed
tlie woman, who proved to be the eld king's
widow; and, straightening up, she discarded
mop and brush, and at once set out for her
