The Queer Limb Used by the Maimea Son of a Yankee Manufacturer. Willard A. Lucas, the son of a great woolen manufacturer at Poquetannuck, Conn., wears an artificial hand made of aluminum, which, according to the St. Louis republic, is really one of the auto- matical wonders of the century. Young Lucas lost his hand in his father’s mill, and Lucas, sr., who grieved exceedingly over the results of the accident, wrote or went in person to every known manufact- urer of artificial limbs in this country and Europe, vainly seeking # false hand for his son. Artificial hands could have been procured from any of them, but what was wanted was not to be found—viz.,, a hand that would perform all the functions of a real flesh and blood member. Finally the elder Lucas, who is known as a raze me- chanical genius, took it upon himself to make his son a hand—not a mere “dummy. but one that would be useful for the man- fold purposes to which such members are put. The result is a surprise to every mak er of artificial limbs in the world. The au- tomaton is of aluminum and much resem- bles the steel os eo worn by the knights of the middle ages. The fingers are all per- fect and lifelike, the joints in « ch bend- ing as readily as those in a nat ral hand, making it possible for the young man to perform every kind of labor. An expert report on this wonderful piece o: mechan- ism reads as follows: “With it he can grasp and handily use all kinds of tools, pick up things from the ground, drive, handle a gun—in fact, use it skillfully and quickly at any kind of work. Like a nat- ural hand, the artificial one consists of a palm that is provided with a fastening by which it is attached to a cork ‘stump,’ the joints working by a ratchet, so that the fingers may be bent forward at an angle and held there. The hand may be only rartly closed or tightly shut, and only one filnger or all, as the wearer desires, may be closed at once and instantly by striking them against the body or other object. To release the grasp it is only necessary to touch a spring at the back of the hand. The invention is as nearly a perfect sub- stitute for a natural hand as could be de- vised, and is the only thing of the kind known in the world.” ———__+-0+—____ BOOTED OUT OF THE ROOM. The Fate of a Young Society Man Who Gave Way to Curiosity. ‘The curiosity of a Pittsburg society young man prompted him to impersonate a waiter at a private dinner given to two footlight favorites in a hotel recently, says the Dis- patch. The curious young man was well acquainted with the men who were giving the dinner, and upon seeing the preparations for a royal feast was anxious to see who the lady guests might be. He thought he'd have a joke, so he persuaded the proprietor to allow him to act as waiter to the party. After donning the us- val attire of a table servant he entered the room carrying a bottle of wine in one hand and a napkin thrown over his arm. He was recognized by his friends, but no sign of recognition passed. He immedi- ately, without the least expression on his face, to serve the fluid. In filling one of the hosts’ glasses he spilt some wine on the table. This caused an apparent burst of anger from the gentleman at the head of the merry board. He arose and, with language none too mild, commenced to abuse the shamming waiter for his carelessness, imputing drunkenness. The waiter never smiled, and all the while the ladies were becoming more and more ter- rified at the impending fight. Finally, amid the shrieks of the fair ones, the host took the counterfeit by the back of the col- lar, causing him to make an ignominious exit with the assistance of a boot. The men then sat down and had a good laugh, and an explanation soon quieted the ter- rified guests. —_—_ +02 -- The Dreadful English Coffee. From the Boston Commercial Bulletin. Neither on English soil nor on English ocean steamers have I found it possible to get a cup of coffee, unless I purchased my own Java coffee, and stood over the coffee pot while it was being brewed. And even then I had to watch most carefully to prevent its being spoiled by the addition of what Englishmen consider a great improver of foreign coffee, namely, a pinch of home or Belgium bitter and black, hideous chic- cory. - I very well remember the difficulty I had with a kind landlady of an English country inn in persuading her not to fling a bit of chiccory into the pot of coffee she was making for me out of pure coffee I had brought with me, she, the kind old heart, constantly assevering she should not charge me a farthing for it, and that it would mightily improve my beverage. Less chic- cory (succory, genus chicorum) is now grown in England than formerly; but an immense amount of it is imported there from Belgium, France and Germany, in which countries this perennial plant is largely used for food for men and cattle. ‘There was a time when a thousand acres of it were under cultivation in a single dis- trict between York and Stamford, and those English farmers who were given to its cultivation claimed that it was not ex- hausting to the soil, but rather an improver of it, when crops of wheat were allowed to follow it. An average yield of fresh roots is about eight tons per acre. Late in the autumn the roots are taken up, cleaned and laid away. The common price of chiccory roots in England is about £2 10s. per ton. There is a heavy excise duty upon chiccory, and the English growers of it claim that this duty is levied in an obnoxious manner. Roasted chiccory is worth in England about 34s. per cwt.—only about one-third the price of coffee. So it is a profitable coffee substitute or mixture. Taxation in En- giend is 14s. per ewt. on coffee, 12s. 3d. on foreign chiccory and 12s.1d. on home-grown chiccory. In leading English agricultural journals I have read pleas for an increase of the home cultivation of chiccory on the ground that it was an improver of genuine ecffee. In all good English grocery stores pure coffee can always be bought, as weil as coffee mixed with chiccory. The sale in England of coffee adulterated with any mixture is visited with heavy penalties, un- less the mixture is duly labeled. I have seen in English grocer shops the packages duly marked “pure coffee,” and “coffee mixed” with a certain per cent of chiccory. Most purchasers bought the mixture. But worse than chiccory is adulterated chiccory. And it is said that most of the chiccory in English shops is adulterated with beans, carrots, parsnips and beets, and colored with eineaco as mae an earth known as Venetian red. A CRUISE TO THE ORIENT. Mr. W. K. Vv aa Party of Friends W: Be Ten Months Afloat. Mr. W. K. Vanderbilt, with a party of frieds, will shortly sail in his palatial steam yacht for a ten months’ cruise to the orient. The Valiant, says the New York Sun, is groomed to perfection, ready to skim the tranquil seas or to battle with the ele- ments, as occasion may demand. Her hull is no longer black; she is dressed all in white, like a bride. Her brasses shine re- fulgent. Among the guests invited by Mr. Vander- bilt to make this voyage are Oliver H. P. Belmont, the banker; Mr. J. Louis Webb, the painter; Mr. Winthrop Rutherford, Mr. Frederick O. Beach and Dr. D. L. Keyes. From first to last, from the day she de- Parts to the time when she casts anchor again in the harbor, the Valiant will be sail- ing under halcyon skies. The deck awn- ings which she will set before leaving will remain up until she returns. On her broad, snowy atter-deck steamer chairs and India rattan couches and hammocks will remain egy one throughout the voyage, afford- ing a luxurious lounging place by day and by night. The cost of a trip like this is very great. In the first place, the Valiant is the largest Steam yacht afloat. She is a small ocean steamer, fitted up with a luxury that is not found even in the largest. She is full Ln rigged—that is, she carries yards on masts—and her tonnace is 2,400. She wena feet long, 34 feet beam, and draws about 18 feet of water. She has twin screws, and her two big triple expansion engines, with cylinders 23, 36 and @ inches in diameter, develop 4,500 horse power. This gives her a speed of 18 knots an hour. She was built by Laird Brothers at Birkenhead, England, and is said to have cost about half a mil- lion dollars. Capt. Henry Msrrison, who has been em- Ployed by Mr. Vanderbilt for several years, and who was in command of the Alva when she was sunk, is in command of theValiant. He has a crew of sixty-two men, who are divided almost equally cvenigg the three de- partments—the navigating, the engineer's and the steward’s. The wages paid ~ Mr. Vanderbilt amount to not less than $2,000 a month. To this must be added the expense of running the vessel, the coal and the sup- plies. Then comes the maintenance of the crew, and, by no means least, the cost of supplies for the cabin. The total can hardly be much less than $7,000 a month. Palatial terior. The saloons and state rooms of the Va- liant are luxurious, in keeping with the rest of the appointments. There is a social hall, a saloon and a smoking room, all lavishly fitted up and decorated, and be- sides the cabin of the owner, there are about twenty state rooms for the accom- modation of guests. The deck houses are of iron, faced with teakwoo@. The social hall, through which is the entrance to the saloon, is a finely finished apartment in the style of Francis I. The smoking room is paneled with mahogany, and contains card tables, divans and cabinets for tobacco and cigars. The saloon is 18 feet long and 34 feet the full breadth of the yacht. It is fit up in the style of Louis X1V, its woodwork in white enamel, picked out in gold. The paneling is richiy caryed in high relief. Against one wall is a piano and against an- other an ornate sid . The furniture is Chippendale, white, inlaid with brass and upholstered in crimson plush. There is dome jutting a through the deck, set wen jerbilt rug. to the library. Upon either side of the e the state rooms open. The library is finished in carved walnut, which ts used not only in the casings and paneling, but in the settees and bookcases. The panels of the ceiling are made of small paintings. A massive mantelpiece at one end is won- derfully carved. The fireplace is of glazed tile and a big iron cauldron serves ag @ grate. The sitting room is a handsome apart- ment, about 16 feet square. It =? in dark mahogany, the upholstery being of apple- flowered silk. At one side is an open grate, with fittings of brass. The panels over the mantelpiece are formed of Wedgewood Plaques. The largest state room is the one to be occupied by Mr. Vanderbilt himself. The furniture ts of carved oak. The bedstead is elaborate, and has a silk canopy. There is a large wardrobe, a cabinet, a bookcase, a writing desk and many lockers. There ts also a luxurious lounge, and, in one corner, a semi-circular divan. A carved swing door connects with a bath room elaborately fitted and decorated. The bed room designed for Mrs. Vander- Dilt is Sheraton, in white and pink and gold. The furniture and han conform to the scheme. An enameled white he4- stead has draperies of old gold silk. The carpet is of light drab.
