Known Klrnt to ( lie Em-pUnn * , but HroiiKlit to 1'erfccHou ) > > UOIIIJIIIH. Ill an Interesting nrtlclo on "Ornamental Glass In All Ages" In the Woman's Homo Compaulon Orlcna L. Shnckleford has this to say of the antiquity of glass : "The Egyp tians used glass ornaments largely for per sonal decoration. Necklaces , bracelets , beads , Rcarabacl , etc , , of exquisite beauty ; liavo been discovered In their tomb ? . It also served to bedeck clothing , and in numerable domestic objects were made iDf It for dally use. Indeed , this accommodat t- ing medium was adapted by them to tin Infinity of purposes , being blown , cast , rolled , wrought or cut , as the worker willed , whether Into statues of their gods or d.as glass eyes for the sightless sockcti of tbolr inummlts , to express the wish of the soul to arrive safe and whole at the cna of ulU loqrncy. The Homatis exec)1 ) , ' > the Kgyp- [ lnns as extensive users of / * > s. It nerved i hem for ( .rcoratlofi to \v/S'and doors , for i-ll rorts of domestic ve/Og - , cinerary urns : and cofilna ( ilia Egyptians burled Alexan der the Great In a glass coffin ) , for orna ment * , to. s , dice , draughts , chessmen and water clgcka.'Q read of a table of solid rrlcd when they sacked the lUcrtml City , but It la now considered not to hnvo bix-n of pro- clous stone only fine green glnss or Jns- pcr yet deemed miHlclcutly valuable to be set with pearls nnd mounted In gold. "Theso great builders the most practical of antiquity were not slow to realize tin vnltio of this transparent medium as a means of transmitting light Into their pnl- aces and temples ; but their wlndowpanc * were only from seven to ten luclus square , and the glass was more green thnu white , lucking the crystal clearness of our modern productions. Glass mirrors were known to the Egyptians and Romans. Specimens have been found In the tombs of the former nnd documentary evidence from 1'llny , Sen eca , Lucretius and others undoubtedly ptovcs their possession by the latter. Glass was used for lamps In roiupcll , but wo liuvo no evidence of Its being applied to such a purpose In Egypt , where It was appropri ated more. largely to ornamental and deco- lutlvo rather than domestic purposes. " HOME ru.Lnus ON Tin : WAR. StutlMtlcN ItrKiiTilliiK ( lie Army mill Mime of the Miiiitlle * t ne l. Now that the war Is over some persons would llko to know how many bullets were fired during the conflict. Since that canuot bo ascertained , relates the New York Sun , It Is striking enough to consider that th 77,000 men now composing the army of the United States carry In their cartrldgo belts more than 27,000,000 rlllo balls. At all events they would carry that many If nil of them were armed with the now mag azine rllle , commonly known as the Krag- Jorgcnscii , 100 cartridges being allowed to each man. llcforo long all of Uncle Sam's soldiers will bo provided with this weapon instead of the "nrchalo" S ; 'logfleld. Thus equipped the 277,0u > men now en listed would carry 372 tont. of bullets at their waists , and this makes reckoning of only the leaden balls and not of the car tridges containing them. Each of the car- ' trldgcs Is a bit over three Indies long and if all of those contained In Uio belts of the soldiers were placed end to end they would stretch 1,360 miles. Just think of the de structive power represented by that line of cartridges ! The barrel of one of these regulation rides IB thirty Inches loug. If all of them the 277,000 were placed end to end , so as to make a continuous tube , the latter would extend 131 miles , or just about the- distance from Washington to Philadelphia , But , to render the thing more striking , consider the fact that the new rifle will kill a man at 4,400 yards. This makes n total effective ? range of 692,500 miles for 277,000 rides. Ac cordingly , If the velocities of all the bullets could bo combined , thrco sharpshooters oy the earth would bo able to shoot far enough to kill three men on the moon. Each Boldler'e uniform , with capo over coat , requires eleven and a quarter square yards of material. Hence It appears that i the cloth used for making war costumes , ' I for the 277,000 men in the army , if spread ! out , would cover Just about 644 acres , or a little over a square mile. At $18.65 n suit an outfit of uniforms for all the troops of the i United States costs the government $5,16(1- ( 050 , enough to build , furnish and arm the biggest and finest kind of a battleship , 'such j ] as tbo Oregon. / ) ' Most of the volunteers in the- war have 1 : received only ono blanket apleco from Uncle j 1 Sam , though the usual allowance is two. These blankets nre of exceptionally dno material , costing $3.33 apiece. To provide every man in the army with ono means an expense of $922,410 , find these 277,000 jono . blankets would cover 244 acres of ground. | I They are seven feet long by five and a half , feet wide , and it is agreed by both officers and men in the service that better poker can be played on them than on any other kind of cloth. To make an army shirt of dannel re quires three" square yards of stuff and the government pays $1.95 for tbo finished gar * incnt. Thus it Is easily calculated that such ; shirts for all the troops would come to a total Of $540,000 and the material for them would spread over 172 acres. Moro inter esting Is the fact that 34,625 calves would bo required to .furnish leather for the shoea of all the regiments , and this would take no account of the soles and heels , which , would have to bo supplied by 90,233 cowe. The rubber cloaks for the army , called "ponchos , " would cost $390,570 , and would cover 143 acres. Ono acre of good land yields 375 pounds of cotton , which can bo woven in 147 half tcnta of the "shelter" kind used In the field. Each two soldiers have a tent between them , one carrying the right half and the other the left half. Such a tent costs $3.97 complete , with jointed pole , etc. the total cost of shelter ing the entire army under canvas being $549,845. , Spread out the canvas needed would cover 272 acres , each half tent having 4i yards of material. To produce the cot ton for making nil this tcntage would need 1,889 acres or nearly three square miles. An ordinary canteen holds two quarts. With all these receptacles filled , the present army of 277,000 men carries 3,644 hogsheads1 of water. This fact Is about equivalent to the dally requirement of water for the troops. The quantity would last ono man more than 7CO years. Each man has a tin cup that holds a pint and a half. If all of them were filled they would contain 2,733 hogsheads. Hut soldiers are thirsty pcopla and their belt capacity Is wonderful. Forty- nlno Inches long , by the way , Is the average cartridge belt and 277,000 of them put end , to end would stretch 211 miles. One of the most Interesting questions < n' relation to the fighting problem Is that of transportation. It Is Impossible to ascertain , even approximately , how many miles wcro traversed by the army as a whole , or by the average soldier. However , it may bo said that tbo average enlisted man during the present war did not travel less than 200 miles. If It bo supposed that the jour ney taken by the average enlisted man waj 200 miles , it will appear that the total num ber of miles traversed was 05,400,000. This total represents more than half the distance from the earth to the sun and a paid ticket on that basis would entitle an individual eoldlcr to 115 round trips to the moon. The War department says that It cost 18 cents a day to maintain a soldier. This , of course , means simply the regular rations. Transportation of provisions means an extra expense and eo It Is reckoned that a fighting man requires 22 cents a day for his mainte nance. Now , at this rate , tbo government li obliged to pay $60,910 a day for food for the 277,000 men enlisted. Each man Is entitled to an allowance of twenty ounces of frcjh meat a day , which means a total of 346,250 pounds for the entire army. Of flour the al lowance Is eighteen ounces , amounting to 1,589 barrels a day for the whole army. Reckoning things on tbo same basis , the army as at present constituted requires 1,731 barrels of potatoes dally , and for the same period 27,700 pounds of coffee , 41,550 pounds of sugar , 11,279 pounds of salt , 6,639 pounds of eoap , 4,324 pounds of candles , G92 pounds of pepper and 44 hogsheads of vinegar. During the war tbo loss to the Spaniards by ships destroyed has been $24,600,000. The cost of the war to the United States may reach $1,000,000,000. A IliH'lM'lor' * WiintN.
