Rev. J. Everist Cathell MAftLBOKuuGH'S NOTE. & 8orap of Paper Treasured by the Great Duke's Heirs. A scrap of paper that carries one back to the very atmosphere of a great decisive battle in the world's history is amoug the historical treas ures of Blenheim Ilouxe. Ou the pu pcr are a dozen lines scribbled In pen cil. They were written by the Duke of Marlborough at the close of the flerce struggle at Blenheim, t The tumult of battle was rolling westward, where Freuch and Bava rlnus were In disorderly retreat, with i Marlborough's cavalry riding fiercely In their rear. The slopes of the hill nd the marshy plain were strewn with 30,000 killed and wounded. But Marlborough, with the excite ment of the great fight yet .strong within him, pulled up his horse on one of the little rustic bridges across the Bchwanbuch and scribbled these doz en lines to his wife In London to tell her of the great event." Apparently the duke borrowed the crap of paper from some member of bis staff, for on the back of It are the faded Items of a tavern bill. lie used the parapet of the bridge for n writing desk. lie bad been seventeen hours In the saddle, most of that time riding In the very heart of one of the greatest battles In all history, yet the letters Are firm In shape, a curious testimony to that serenely unshakable tempera ment that was Marlborough's roost striking characteristic. New York Herald. AN INSOLENT FOP. Ileau Brtimmel's Impertinence and a Brewer's Tart Retort. Beau Brummel. the famous English fop, was aa notorious for his insolence s for bis fine feathers. At the Pa Villon, at Brighton, he ordered the foot man to empty his snuffbox Into the fire because a bishop had taken a pinch unasked. A man w-hom he had met at dinner offered him a lift in his carriage to Lady Jersey's ball. "Thank you exceedingly." said the beau, "but how are you to go? You would not like to get up behind, and I cannot be seen in the same carriage with you." lie made no secret of his humble birth and when asked about bis parents de clared that "the poor old creatures both cut their throats yeurs ago eat ing peas with a knife." Once, at least Brummel met bis match. lie was playing hazard at Brooks', when a well known alderman, a brewer, was one of the party. "Come, Masbtub." said Brummel, who was the caster, 'what's your bet?" Twenty-flve guineas." was the reply. "Well, then, have at the mayor's pony," said Brummel, who proceeded to cast nd by run of luck won the stake twelvo times In succession. Pocketing the money, he thanked the brewer and promised that In future he woJid drink do one's porter but bis. "1 wish, sir," replied the brewer, "that every other blackguard la London would tell me the same." Why Actresses Never Grow Old (Theatrical Woifd) Nothing concerning the profession ems more puzzling to the dear old public than the perpetual youth of our feminine members. How often we hear remarks like, "Why, I saw her as Juliet forty years ago and she doesn't look a year older now!" Of course allowance is made for make up, but when they see us off the stage at close range, they need another ex planation. How strange women generally haven't learned the secret of keeping the face young! How simple a mat ter to get an ounce of mereolized wax at the drug store, apply It like cold cream, and in the morning wash it oft! We know how gradually, imper ceptibly absorbs old cuticle, keeping the complexion new and fresh, free, free from fine lines, sallowness or over-redness. We know, too, that this mereolized wax is the reason actresses don't wear moth patches, liver spots, pimples and the like. Why don't our sisters on the other side of the footlights learn the reason, and profit by it? BATHING CLOAK. A Graceful Wrap That le Useful en Chilly Days. BCACaT CLOAK. The French bather In her abbrevi ated bloomer bathing dress comes down to the edge of the water covered by a long, graceful wrap, which she throws to an attendant when she steps Into the water. When she emerges after her bath the big wrap Is ready to cover her up again. These bathing wraps seem rather an Affectation' ou American beaches, where It is quite the custom to walk and sit about, clad in a bathing dress, but at the fashionable resorts the bath ing wrap is much the thing, and of course It mutches In color and material the pretty bathing dress worn under it If one pleases the wrup may be also used as a rug during the sunning on the sand. Spread out before one sits down, it keeps the wet suit free from and and prevents the messy, heavy condition that is so unpleasant. The bathing wrap pictured is of soft rubberized blue silk. It is lined with scarlet taffeta and makes a pretty bit of color on the beach. The silk cap shown in the picture of this bathing wrap is one of the fa vorite models Just now. The dotted Bilk Is drawn In folds over the rubber swimming cap, and at either side are ends of the silk. TAILORED GOWNS. They Are 8mart!y Made Up In Linen or Pique.

Can it be that the time for the passing of that won derful little fighter, Abe Attell is at hand? It would seem so, according to all reports of the condition of Attell, who is resting or at least trying to within the confines of little old New York. Abey has been kept out of the ring for months now because of an injured' shoulder, and according to those who are in close touch with the little Jew, it is likely that he may never enter the arena again to defend the title of featherweight champion, which he has held for many years and that, too, without serious contention. j As rare as snowballs on the Fourth of July on the equator in the game of pugilism will be the case of Abey if he is forced to relinquish his crown through inability to defend it. Since the da3"s of glove fighting began it is hard to find a champion who has been forced to give up his title through an injury received in the ring. There have been many cases, far too many, where a champion through defeat has been dethroned after he had passed the stage of his best fighting days. Many Instances of this might be cited here, taking into consideration every class from the heavyweights down to the lit tle bantams. Jeff One Example. There was only one man among the big fellows who quit before his title was taken away from his. That was James J. Jeffries, and he was forced to give up his crown through voluntary retirement principally because there was no one capable of making him fight for it. But the fact must not be overlooked that after six years of re tirement this same James J. Jeffries was hauled back into the ring to meet that inevitable defeat which has been traditional since the start of the game, from the hands of the negro, Jack Johnson. Another instance is that of Joe Gans, the great colored fighter, now num bered among the dead. For years Joe was lightweight champion. He con tinued to fight until age and tubercu losis, caused through excessive train ing, made him a different man. It made him an easy victim for Battling Nelson, and with that defeat went the title he had held so long. And as indi cating the change in the Baltimore man, it was not long after that death claimed him. In Class Alone. Those are cases where fighters have met the inevitable, but in the case of Abe Attell it is far different. Up un til the time his shoulder was injured in a fight less than a year ago, with Tommy Kilbane at Cleveland there were few able to make Abey step his limit to win. He fought all the feath erweights that could be sent against him. And he beat them all and gath ered in the sheckles all the while. " But since being put out of commission, At tell has not been able to stand train ing, despite the fact that he has been under the watchful eye of physicians. Only a couple of weeks ago Abey was to have fought in an eastern ring. The match had been made and all was ready for the setting, but the fight didn't take place. A couple of days before fight time it was called off by Attell, who annpunced that he was un able to fight. It would be hard to find a more won derful little fighting machine than At tell. Ruling the roost for years, he has been giving away pounds in order to keep active. He has everything there is in the pugilistic repertoire at his finger tips. Many declare there never was a more clever defensive and offensive fighter, and this combined with his great headwork, which made him a wonderful ring general, com pleted the machine which has proved invulnerable to attack. As a two-handed fighter, none ever was better, and If there is anything lacking in Attell it is a stiff punch. He had a punch that could score knockouts, but he did Ot display it often. Wolgast Recovered. There have been other cases and there are at the present time where injured hands or arms have put a fight er out of commission for a time, and in other instances for all time; but these men were not champions. However, it is interesting to cite the case of one hampion, a present one. This is Ad Wolgast of Cadillac, Michigan, holder of the lightweight championship.When Jack Redmond fought the little Michi gan "bear-cat" more than a year ago Wolgast broke his right hand. He managed to stay the limit, ten rounds, with Redmond, and thereby saved his title. Then it was up to the champion to take a long rest, so that the injured maul might mend. For months Ad did not do a lick of work, and finally he was informed by his physician that he might try it out. He did. and the hand was injured, much more serious this time. Then came another rest be fore the titleholder was able to re enter the ring. The Dodger.

OU English Recipe For tho Famous Soup la Creey. In the "Illustrated London Cookery Book." by Frederick Bishop, late cui siner to St. James' palace. Earl Grey, the Marquis of Stafford. Baron Roth schild. Earl Norbury. Captain Dun combe and many of tlie first families of Great Britain (1S52). we find this recipe for soupe a la Crecy: "Cut half a pound of lean ham in dice, three onions, four turnips, twelve carrots the outer side red only, a head of celery, a fagot of sweet herbs, two blades of mace, six cloves, a bay leaf and half a pound of salt butter. Fry all down in a stewpan until they get a little brown; then add some second stock and stew until all the roots are quite tender; then rub it through a tammy sieve or tammy cloth with two long spoons. If very thick add more stock. Season with cayenne and black pepper and salt and a good bit of sug ar. Send up on a napkin some nice fried bread cut in small dice ard not greasy. This Is far less elaborate thnn It sounds and is. indeed, in the main the recognized recipe for the royal soup." The spice is, if anything, a trifle over done, and the carrots want to be well chosen, as the slightest stringiness de stroys the homogeneity of the com pound. The bread dice are imnortaut and should be fried in the very best butter or superlatively good olive oiL PaU Mall Gazette. CORDITE. Made of Two Powerful Explosives Kneaded Into Paste. Cordite is the outcome of the strange paradox that if you mix together two powerful explosives the result is a smokeless slow burning powder. Ni troglycerin and gun cotton mixed to gether with a little petroleum jelly make cordite. It is curious to see the two deadly explosives being kneaded together into a paste by women with the same unconcern as dough is knead ed for bread. Indeed, machines simi lar to those used in bakeries fake up the work and knead the buff colored cordite paste for seven hours. Then it is forced through molds and issues in long cords hence the name cordite the thickness of which is varied ac cording to the weapon in which it is to be used. For big guns cordite is half an inch thick and cut into lengths of thirty seven inches. Rather more than a thousand of these cordite sticks pack ed in two bundles make up the car tridge for a twelve inch gun. For the rifle cordite is pressed into a very thin 6tring. like the finest macaroni, and sixty of these strands one inch and a half long make the neat little bundle which lies inside the cartridge case. For some European armies cordite is made in flat thin strips like whale bone. Kept away from fire, cordite can be handled with impunity. Lou don Graphic. Mountains of Moab. Most travelers who visit the Holy Land content themselves with a visit to that restricted part west of Jordan. The mountainous regions of Moab as seen by them from Jerusalem are lost in a purple haze that constantly hangs over them, and the great stretches be yond are covered in mystery. This is true partly because of the fewer historical incidents connected with the eastern regions, but mainly on account of the great abyss of the Jordan val ley that has always acted as a barrier. Few who descend into the valley 1.300 feet below sea level undertake to climb the hills beyond, which rise to a height of 3,000 feet. Though its glory Is far outshone by that of western Palestine, still, both in the old and the new dispensations, it has a history of its own and from an economic stand point will always enter very largely into the life of Palestine, Christian Herald. .

(National News Association) New York, July S. Russell G. Colt, the husband of Ethel Barrymore. de clared in an interview today that he knew nothing of the reported determi nation of his two years bride to sue him for divorce. "I certainly know nothing about re ports from Los Angeles that I am to be sued for divorce," said the young millionaire. "We have had no quarrel and I do not believe that my wife con templates any such action. Business affairs here prevented me from ac companying her upon her present west ern tour." Jack Barrymore, brother of the act ress, also denied all knowxedge of the reported divorce plans at his summer home in Rockville Center, L. I., today. Victor Hugo's Double. Victor Hugo had a real double in flesh and blood, who exploited his physical resemblance to the man of genius. He cut his beard like Hugo's, copied the master's dress in its small est details and so for eighteen years divided with the master the admira tion of the public. His especial de light was to pose in a poetical attitude in front of a Punch and Judy show. He did this at a particular spot every Thursday afternoon for years, thor oughly enjoying the murmurs of curi osity and applause proceeding from the gaping crowd which be deceived.
