DISCOVERED BY AN AMERICAN

Splendid Qanlltlri.
Thu discovery of a material to take the
place ot marble and bronze in sculpture has
atlajf been made. Sculptors for generations
back have sought eagerly for some such sub.
Blanco , but , without avail. Hundreds cf ex
periments have failed ; hur.3reda of ambitious
men have died In disappointment. " And now
to America comes the honor of having solved
the groit problem. George Julian Zolnay ,
himself a sculptor of fame , la the discoverer ,
end ho hag demonstrated IJio value of hla
discovery by a largo number of successful
experiments ? .
Mr. Zolnay Uao produced a plastic material
that eo closely resembles marble In all par
ticulars that experts are puzzled to dete-zi
any dlffercncca and laymen pee none. Thla
substance ho calls "liquefied marble. " It
.fulfills all the requirements of the sculptor
as to dumblll'.y and hardness and form ? a
perfectly imperishable material , way to work
and capable of receiving every delicate line
end curve of the clay model.
ALL ART LOVEIta BENEFIT.
At first glance the Importance of this new
discovery Li upt to bo overlooked by thoac
unfamiliar with the sculptor's art. But Mr ,
Zolnay'o discovery will glvo everybody the
oppportunlty to enjoy the 'best sculptures ;
to have them la his house , or about his
groundu , and enjoy their possession. It will
to method ot hardening platter , but ex
perience of hid own and 'that of other * noon
hewed him he was on the wrong track.
Then ho began the.search for a new com
pound. Experiment followed experiment. He
found hl material and theoretically It
worked as well any reatoner couM wlh ;
but when It came to the , -practical teit the
difficulties seemeJ for a long time In
surmountable. Out the Idea had become a
fixed one , and patience and prcacrvarwo
carried the day and finally IUCCCIR came.
Now , after crucialteitR extending over
Tears , Mr. Zolnay lays claim to full success.
At the World's fair In Chicago he was one
of the chief sculptors at work on the build
ings , and there hi * work was much admired.
At the later Tennessee exposition he had
many statues and portrait busts oa exhibi
tion In the Parthenon , where they attracted
much attention , and In the decorations of the
.buildings there were many samples of his
sculpture In liquefied marble. Mr. Thomas ,
president ot t&c Nashville , Chattanooga &
St. Louis railway ? Vvas so Impressed with
this substance that ho gave Mr. Zolnay a
commission for two allegorical figures ot
heroic slzo for the Nashville statlou. While
these figures are Intended as allegories , the
features are thoco ot well known people , cno
being V. K. Stcvcnuon , the first president
of the road , end the other Charles Grant ,
who for twenty-seven jcars' has been fore *
man of the shops.
One of the Immediate results ot thin new
departure in sculpture was noticed at the
Tennessee exposition. ( Mr. Zolnay heard the
story of Sam lavls ) < the boy scout of the
confederacy , whose courage and high Fenso
of honor puts htm on the same stand as
Nathan Hale , the revolutionary hero , who ,
like the latter , gave his llfo to his cause.
Ho was so greatly Impressed with the sub
Jcct that ho made a portrait bust ot the dead
hero , and It was put on exhibition by the
managers of tne exposition. Aa soon as the
public learned It was made of the nc\v
material , and could be duplicated at a reason
able price , the demand for statues ot Davis
was very large. This straw shows that
people wa-at sculptures , and that when they
are brought within their reach they will
have them ,
Mr. Zolnay has statues and portrait busts
in nearly every country In Europe. In this
THE INVENTOR. AND SOME OP HIS PYUOLITH SCULPTURE.
bring the "art beautiful" within the reash
ot slender purses and not confine statuary
to the galleries of millionaires and public
* museums. .
This liquefied marble , or pyrollth , as the
name Implies , Is first compounded In a liquid
state , and then , by Berne chemical action
which Mr. ZoVnay fcr the present keeps a
- secret , returns to Its original state. Ono of
the most remarkable facts about thla process
1s that In BRiln solidifying , the substance re-
itakes and retains that peculiar transparency
which makes marble the highest medium for
a representation ot the human form. The
Inability to preserve thla feature has been
the stumbling block over which nearly all
other seekers for a substitute for marble
have tripped. Marble la admittedly the
Ibcat material tbo world affordB for preserv
ing tbo creative imagination of tbe sculptor ,
and next to that bronze la considered the
most desirable and durable. The labor and
expense In using either of I'.heeo materials Is
enormous , and the loss ot Leauty and Intent ,
as planned by the sculptor lu transferring
from the moid of perishable lay or plaster
to the durable sub3tanccs , Is far greater than
Is commonly believed. The methods Mr.
Zolnay follows In his art arc slmlMr to those
pursued by all sculptors up to the point
where bronze or marble Is called into use.
Then 'his course Is different and tho. liquefied
marble is used. With the substitution ot
pyrollth every line , the faintest curve , and
the most delicate tracing In solt and pliable
clay Is preserved. Just as the sculptor fash
ioned U. Moreover the coat ot production
Is greatly lessened. As every one knows ,
the real creation of the sculptor himself Is
the clay or wax In which ho moJels. On thla
is expended all his talent and genius. But ,
unfortunately , clay dries and cracks and wax
becomes soft nd Is liable to any number
ot misfortunes. Hence , as soon as finished ,
the clay or wax model la cast In plaster , a
less perishable substance , but one that with
stands few of the accidents ot dally use.
Many attempts have been made to harden
plaster to a point ot durability , but all efforts
have been hitherto futile. . Terra cotta haa
been tried aad a thousand and ono other
materials and compounds , but none came to
wactlcal value until Mr. Zolnay made his
bappy discovery. Thus tbe sculptor has been
thrown back upon bronze or marble It he
desires his work to survive. If he decided
upon bronze his plaster cast has been cut
Into sections , molded In sand , and when the
bronze U cast the pieces are fastened to
gether , with a consequent loss , much or little
as the ease may be , ot the original design.
It marble has been chosen the plaster cast
has been turned over to workmen and the
mercies ot a machine called a "pointing ma
chine. "
SCULPTORS DO NOT HEALTHY SCULP.
It may be a surprise to many to learn
that a sculptor dots not stand with chisel
and .hammer before a lough-hewn block of
stone and chip away until the etatue grows
beneath hla blows Into the semblance ot his
Ideal , but such Is tbe fact. With the com
pletion of the potter's clay model tbe
sculptor's work is done. It Is easy to see
how much of the Inspiration and technique
tnay be lost In the later processes entrusted
to men whose only Incentive to work Is tbd
day's wages. It Is Into thin breach that Mr.
Zolnay comes with his liquid marble. Into
the plaster casts , which are exact molds ot
the original , tbe liquid marble Is poured.
The substance fills every crevlco and takes
to Itself , In hardening , absolute fidelity to the
original. This Is a process ot hours ;
bronze and marble require days. With the
Utter materials the making of duplicates Is
ss costly and expensive as the making ot tbe
first copr of the original ; but by Mr.
Zolnay's method duplicates may be msde
rapidly and In as large s number as may
be desired , at a low cost compared with tbo
other methods. With each successive copy
in natural marble tbe enthusiasm ot the
sculptor snd bis assistants Is almost sure
to wane ; the. subject baa lost its novelty
and lack ot Interest will show In the detail
work. With tbe use ot pyrollth there Is no
chance for human frailties ot this nature to
creep in. 'So long as the plaster cast holda
together exact copies may bo made , each one
a faithful reproduction of the original in all
Its details. , .

CAREER OF THE INVENTOR.
'By ' birth Mr. Zolnay Is a Hungarian , tl
descendant of a family of warriors , and for
tlmo he served as an officer himself In
crack regiment of cavalry. But the Joy
sticking his hinds in mud overcame h
liking for a military life and he relinquish !
that career to become a sculptor. For

HOKQ KONO , March 16. On Saturday ,
February 26 , Commodore Dewey , command *
ing the United States Astatic squadron , re
ceived important advices and orders from
Washington. A consultation of commanding
oincerfl was held , and prompt action was
taken to collect the United , States squadron
at this port and put It In the highest possi
ble state of readiness.
The failed Stated crulsef Concord , which
had just arrived on this station , had teen
sent to Chemulpo , Corea , to relieve the
cruiser Boston , which had been lying there
five months. Both the ships were ordered
to proceed here with the utmoat'dtapatch.
The question of coaling the fleet in Hong
Kong was a serious one. All the good coal
on hand In all the ports of India , China and
the restl or the far east had been bou&bt up
by the British admiralty , in anticipation of
trouble with Germany or Russia ,
The Germans had , however , secured 1,000
torn of Cardiff coal which was telng held
here for them. They cabled that day that
they would , not need the coal. The pay
master of the American fleet beard of this
and promptly snapped It up. It was Just
about enough to nil up tbo bunkers of the
United States cruisers Olympla and Halclgh
and the United States gunboat Petrel. This
was gotten 0:1 board In rapid fashion , the
ships coaling all night In t'omo cases. All
repair work on the engines ashore waa
stopped , and everything \\as got In readi
ness to leave In a few hours.
Since then the necessary dally expenditure
of coal has bean replaced promptly , so that
the squadron has full bunkers all tbe time.
When the American commodore cabled for
the Boston and Concord , to lay oft Chemulpo
the ordew to come hero were totally unex
pected. Yet the t\\o shlpo were able to
start the next day , Monday , February 28 ,
and Friday morning the people of Hens
Kong were astonlahed to find that they had
arrived at midnight , having made the run
of over 1,300 miles In leas than four da > s ,
and at an average speed of over fourteen
knots. This was a remarkable performance ,
and the Boston carried off the honors.
SHIPS ARE UEAtY ) TO SAIL , .
Commodore Dewey's live cruisers are ready
andrdiould the- Spanish
to sail In a few hours ,
ish Imbroglio lead to hostilities , a dash
across the China sea of 700 miles would put
the United States fleet la possession of
Manila.
Although the Spaniards have seventeen
vessels doing duty in theoo waters ; most1 of
them are In reality tug boats , of 200 tons
displacement , with only two modern cruisers
of about 3,000 tons. The latter could easily
bo handled by the Raleigh or Boston.
At the clcse of the last revolution In the
Philippine Islands several of the old lead
ers sought asylum In Hong Kong. Promptly
on the receipt of the news of the extreme
strained relations between the United States
and Spain these men disappeared from their
old haunts In thlo city and now a violent re
bellion has broken out In the provinces near
Manila.
Immediately after the receipt of news of
the outbreak the land wires between Manilla
and Bollnaos , where the cable lands from
Hong Kong , were-cut , which rendered impos
sible the gathering of any reliable news of
affairs Jn 'Manila. '
Five" days ago a report came that an
English telegraph operator had been shot
by the Insurgents near Bollnaos. The British
cruiser Edgar , then lying at Hong" Kong,1 was
hurriedly dispatched to investigate' the
maitter. It Is now In Manila , but has not
made any report qt affairs.
On March 7 the squadron commanded by
Prince Henry ot Prussia arrived after its
long and vexatious cruise from Kiel. The
prlnco flies the flag of a rear admiral from
the old battleship DeutMhland , and has the
cruiser Gcflon In company with him. He
has naturally been tbe ) subject of a great
deal of curiosity , and has been much feted
officially and socially. Throughout it all he
haa borne himself with ouch dignity and
good fellowship that there who were Inclined
to smile have ended by admiring him and
becoming loud In hlo praise-
The fleets ot all tbe powers in these waters
are being strengthened enormously. Clcaely
following the Brltlstt'-'flnit 'cUss cruiser
Powerful has come ? the , 'British battleship
Barfleur , with another battleship , the

te wife , was Buffering from falling of tbe womb and
10 entire suppression of the menses. After using one
3- bottle of Wine'of Cardui and a little Black-Draught
3Dt -She is almost perfectly cured. These medicines are

' This century has brought some-wonderful discoveries and Inventions to
the attention of the world. But no one of these is more important to the
women of America than the discovery of McElree's Wine of Cardui and its
companion medicine , Thedford's Black-Draught. These simple remedies
have given good health to more suJfeetog women than all other medicines of
their class put together. Their introduction has revolutionized the manner
of treatment of female diseases. 'Ita * ao longer necessary for a modest woman
to submit' to abhorrent local examtostions from an incompetent or unscrupu

A New Serial Story.
Ashes of Empire
By Robert W. Chambers
Author of "The Rod Rapublto , " "Tho Mystory"6TChoico , " "Lorralno , " etc , ,
will appear In The Omaha Sunday Boo ,
Beginning April 24.
The New York Sun says of Mr. Chambers : "Ho never draws a woalf
or uninteresting character. They are all fascinating : . "
Richard II. Stodtlnrd writes : "Whoever has read him will see the
hand of tbo raaater story-toller. "
The Literary World ( London ) says : "Mr Chambers Is a past , muster
in the art of sending the blood coursing in purest sympathy with.
the fortunqa or exploits of his puppets. "
"Ashes of Empire" is a story of the same qualities
as "Lorraine , " which drew from the critics the high pralso above
quoted.
Its opening chapter describes the flight of the Em
press Eugenlo from Paris aftoi- the disaster of Sedan (1870) ( ) . Two
young Frenchwomen , sisters Yolotto and Hlldo are Incidentally
introduced. Two young English war correspondents Burke ana
Harowood also appear , us accessories to the escape of the Empress.
Around these four leading characters Mr. Chambers has woven u ro
mantle love story or rather two love stories In ono.
The siege ot Paris serves as the background and many
described with a dramatic power that
of its most stirring scones are
recalls Victor Hugojp famous pen-pictures of older battlefields. The
chapter which give * an account of ono of the great sortie * inudo by the
garrison of the besieged city and the battle of Lo Dourgct , which fol
lowed , will quicken the pulse of every reader.
The two young war correspondents become sepa
rated in the pursuit of their respective duties ; and the house in which
Yolotto and Hlldo have their homo Is sacked by the Germans ; and ono
of the two sisters is carried of ! by Speyor , a Gorman spy , Harowood
is wounded in the battle and Is can-led to the Nanterro fort. . A pro
fessional criminal known as "Tho Mouse" and his pals , "Blbl" and.
"Mon Onolo , " play minor but interesting parts in the complications
that follow , and their characters are portrayed with the skill which
Mr. Chambers acquired by his long rosldenco In Paris and his eloso
study of Parisian typos. The story is brought to a pleasant conclusion
with the reunion of the two war correspondents , and their marrlago to
Yolctto and Hiluo.
Eactj installment of "Ashes of Empire' *
will be effectively illustrated by competent
artists. It will be one of the great serial
stories of the year. <
