1i TIIE INVENTOII OF SACUSIAIil1V. An Acctident Leat' to an Iutdportant DiMcovery A Substance Which Out-Sugard tugor. Dr. Constantine Fahlberg, the in ventor or discoverer of saccharine tcho now coal tar sugar, is a tall, well-built, handsome Gorman-Anerican, of about thirty-eight years of age. lie speaks the iodern languages fluently, and despite the celebrity thalit so suddenly fal en upon him, is quite difildent and re served. To an inquiring roporter, who had called upon him for the express pur poso of conversing with him on the new sweetoning agent, lie said: ''how ddl disCOVer stccltrino? Well, it was partly by accident and partly by study. I had worked a long tune upon the conpotnd radicals and substitution products of coal tar, and had made a number of scientific discoveries that are, so far as I know, of no commercial value. One evening I was so interested in my laboratory that I forgot about supper until quito late, and then rushed oif for a meal without stopping to wash my hands. I sat down, broke a piece of bread, and put it to my lips. It tasted unspeakably sweet. I did not ask why it was so, probably because I thought it vas some cake or sweetmeat. I rim ed .y mouth with water, and dried my moustache with my napkin, when, to my suprise, the napkin tasted sweeter titan the bread. 'hen 1 was puzzled. I again raised my goblet and, as fortune would havo it, applied my mouth where my fingers had touched it before. The water seemed syrup. It ilashed upon im that I was the cause of the universal sweetness, and I accordingly tasted the end of my thumb, and found that it sur passed any confectionery I had cvei eaten. I saw the whole thing at a glance. I had discoverel or macde somue coal tai substance which out-sugared sugar. I dropped my dinner, and rau back to tht( laboratory. There, in my excitement I tasted the contents of every beakei and evaporatitrg dish on the table, Luckily for me, none contained any corrosive or poisonous liquid. ''Otto of them contained an impurc solution of saccharine. On this I workee then for weeks and months until 1 had dotermined its chemical composition, iti characteristics and reactions, and the best modes of making it scientifically Mid commercially. When I first pub liahed my researches, seine peoplk laughed as if it were a scientific joke: others, of a more skeptical turn, doubted the discovery and the discoverer, uid still others prdelaimed the work as being of no practieal value. When the ptblic first saw saccharine, however, everythuing changed. 'I']te entire press, Europeau and American, described me and my sugar in a way that may have becet edify ing, but was simply amusing to me. And then came letters. My mail tas run as high as sixty a day. .t'eopk wanting samples of saccharine, my auto graph, or my opinion on chenical problems, desiring to become my part ner, to buy iy discovery, to be ny agent, to enter my laboratory and tlh like. A Woxulm:mtr suCCEss. ''What have I done? I have star"ted a companty in (eriaty to manuftacttr saccharine, with a capiaital of 2,00)U,00 iarks. '1'hey ire already at work, and are now prodtcing the iew sugar. It costs, or rather we sell it, between $1. and $12 per pound, but will reduce thes: figures considerably before a year hat gone past. .1 would rather have started int this country, which is my tome, bu the hiight price of skilled labor, and th<~ hiight tar if en the crude materials (fine. elcemicalIs) of wihel saeehatrinie is matide, deterred1 me and~ my friends from se doing. I will say, ho wev'er, that if ap. plieCd chtemlistry 'onitiues progesigt'5ii la it hias doine in the pa1st dlecadie, we shaill opeit brainch works here withint the ntexi five yeats." $aechaorine is proving a wonderful suc cess. It is used itlready iin manIy ways. It is emnployed by the uinakers of gluceost iand beet sugar. These arne inmfetrior in sweetness to canie sugart, itit superior in digestibility and( hiealthfuliness. TJhie lad dition of a trifling fratctiont of sneehiariit makes themt the equals of the t'inest cen sugar in the miarket. Hae(chalLno is st sweet that a teaspioonfuil conlvert a 1har rel oif water inito Sytup. A smiall waifei of it converts thle bidtterest qutininie solu tion or acidl drink inito ia re(gular imolats ses. It will, therefore, lie invaluabh in disguising and destrocying all the bit ter and( sour1 tastes ini iaediciie withiout chantging tlte character or action of the drugs. Saccharine does niot decay, mloulid or ferment, neither is it attacked bi balcteiaL. It has no inljuriouls effect upjon thte hturmn systemi. What (lYeet lae been nioticed is rathI er beneficial than: otherwise. Tis immiuiiity froni deca~ will render it of great utility. Whl.rt -sugar is tised as a flavor amditnot as food1, it is hound toi 1be replaceed 1by sac charine; where as a food iandi flavor' com biined, it will itot lbe. in the future th< new .sugar will lie ulsedI by druggists, physicians, baikers, contfeetionercis, citndy7 mak(ers, bottlers, preserve anid pickh makers, liquor dlistillers, wone mallkers and dlealers in bottlers' stupies.

TIIKT KNIGHTS OP LABIt.JU Cardinal (ibbons Decisres that the Order Is not Under the Iap of the Church. BA L'riMto1u, August 19.-The A 'neriean will print to-morrow an interview with Cardinal Gibbons, who says: Cardinal Tascbcreau's condemtnailon of the Knights of Labor should not he taken a.5 the sentiment of the Church. I ttt not faumiliar with the labor organizations in Quebec, but It is certain that the Cardinal's hostility grew out of some local laws or conduct of the Knights which are contrary to the doctrint's of the Church. As to the Knights of Labor in the United States I have not thorougly exanine( lheitd c')nstit it ion or studied their )turpoSes, yet froni the newspapers andti lowderly's state nw 'nts I infer that their objects arc praise worthy and not oIposed to Church views. 'l'he Catholia prelates will to a man declare in favor of the organizat ion of hibor. ''here can, be no wrong in it Organization is the basis of all progress, politicttL social and re ligious. Only when it is abused does the C'htrch raise her Voice. I have no knowl edge of tIe local societies in Canatda. Wiethte' or not secret pledges are taken hv the Knights of labhor there is a qluestio'n on 'hich torc light, should be thrown by ihir leaders.. Vicar (Genertal (Coniway, of Chicago, assured me that, it. bears no resem hltanue to the I )rder of .\l:asons, l hit1 Fellows an<l other organizations wiich tic: (hurh Ims always anitagonizcl.
