H. Perkin, when a.youth of eighteen, which started the great coal | tar industries that now absorb many millions of capital and afford a Mveli- hood to thousands. Unlike many in- ventors, who have made vast fortunes ot Dr. Perkin reaped a sub- stantial reward from his discovery. He is still living, hale and hearty, happy and prosperous. In another fortnight he will celebrate his sixty-elghth birthday. To commemorate the occa- sion and the jubilee of aniline dyes, he is to be presented with his portrait in a marble bust is to be made of m for the Chemical Soclety and a und is to be established, to be kno s the Perkin Research Fund, for the | promotion of chemical research. Many of the most famous sclentific men in England have takeh the matter in hand. Dr. Perkin's father was a bull%r and 1ed his son to be an architet. but lad wanted to go in for chemistry and fortunately his father let him have his own way. When fifteen he entered the Royal College of Chemistry and rapid headway there that two years later he was appointed as- sistant to Professor Hoffman, who had charge of the college. One day the professor suggested to him should endeavor to produce quinine by artificial means. He failed, but his ex- periments led him to treat sulphate of aniline, a product resulting from the distillation of coal tar. with yellow potash bichromate, and thus he ob- tained the dye stuff called mauve. For many years after its discovery mauve pervaded the ribbons of civilized wom- | anhood, and under the names of lilac and heliotrope " is still recognizable among the latest triumphs of the print works and the looms. It is still the fa- vorite color of Queen Alexandra. But its chief title to distinction is that it was the first of the long series of coal tar colors, more than a hundred in numbér and rivaling the hues of the rainbow, which have utterly revolu- | tionized the dyeing trade. Dr. Perkin patented his process and with his father and brother established works near Harrow. Some years later Dr. Perkin was also connected with the introduction of a red dye like that -of the madder root and. known .as arti- ficial alzarin. “After * manufacturing coal tar colors for abdut eighteen years Dr. Perkin retired from the business with a comfortable fortune to devote himself to the more congenial work of chemical research. For his work in this latter direction the Royal Society awarded him the Davy medal in 1889, It constitutes one of the greatest re- to English industry that, although aniline dyes were first dis- covered in England, Germany has ac- quired almost a monopoly of their pro- duction. To bring about a closer con- nection between chemistry and indus- try will he one of the chief objects to which the Perkin's Research Fund will be devoted. e e——— LADY GREVILLE WRITES OF LORDS AND ACTRESSES Explaing How Beauties of the Stage ‘Win Hearts .of the Noble- , men. LONDON, March 24.—Taking for her text the latest capture of lords by stage beauties, Lady Violet Greville writes: “The collection of lovely women on the stage in England is unique. If tal- ent is wanting, beauty is prevalent, and probably it i8 this wonderful show of prettiness of all kinds decked out in the most becoming and artistic dress | which is the real cause, combined with | the light and pleasant singing, of the ‘mmense popularity of the musical pieces. The pleasure of the eye can be enjoyed by a fool as well as a wise man. “The woman who in ordinary life cannot array herself in the garb most suited to her good looks can do so on the stage. Her appearance may be | classical and require the Greek drap- ery, or Eastern and mysterious and uit best with Oriental and gorgeous garments. : “We see Juno sometimes at home in a cheap blouse and tweed skirt, Venus in a straw sallor hat and tailor-made gown, and the Madonna of Raphael in clothes of the latest Parisan chic and daring. Not so in the theater. There the girl is chosen for her part owing to her special looks. Her beauty is Judiciously heightened and increased by every kind of adjunct and environment, the points of her appearance knowing- 1y, skillfully and lavishly brought out and emphasized by an artfst's hand.” e ‘Woman Robs a Chinese. 8ing Goo, a Chinese, living at Stock- ton and Clay streets, obtained a war- rant from Police Judge Conlan yester- day for the arrest of Grace Morgan on a charge of grand larceny.

E. W. Mason, WhoWrote“FourFeathers” Called "Running Water” LONDON, March 24—Herbert Comp- ton’s new novel, ‘“The Undertaker's Fleld,” is to be given to the world next month. Compton is really a writer of talent, whose first story, “The Inimitable Mrs. Massingham,” contained some pretty good work, but it will be rather surpris- ing if as much can be sald for his new romance, which a London publisher is now vigorously booming. It seems that there is in Kent a piece of land which is known locally as “The Undertaker's Field,” and that Mr, Comp- ton, happening to come across it, decided that this would be a first rate title for a novel. Accordingly he made up his mind to produce a romance under this style, and finding also in the neighborhood a quaint old house built out of ship's tim- bers and bearing the date of Queen Anne’'s time, he resoived to work it into his story, too, and S0 now we have a complete tale of some 60,000 words which its publisher rapturously describes as “original and weird, and with a ghost in {tI" UNIFORM PRICE OF BOOKS. Meanwhile, Mr. Compton's machine- made volume is to be published at the regular price for novels, over here, which is 6 shillings or $1.50—and this recalls the fact that some one has just written to a weekly review protesting against the practice, which seems to prevail on both sides of the Atlantic, of issuing fiction at a uniform price without regard for either quality or contents. As an example this writer says, “I have before me three books just issued: “(a) Beatrice Harraden, ‘Scholar's Daughter,’” ordinary cloth, cut edges, 253 pp., about 6532 lines. */(b) Maxwell Gray, ‘The Great Refusal,’ ordinary cloth, cut edges, 331 pp., about 13,716 lines. “(c) Eden Phillpotts, ‘The Portreeve,” ordinary cloth, cut edges, 3¢ pp., about that he | | 14,560 lines. “To assume that the first-named writer | is equal to either of the others is a propo- sition that few would affirm, but the pub- | lishers practically go much farther, as | they ask the public /to pay the same | price for 6000 lines of Miss Harraden's writing as for 14,000 lines by Mr. Eden | Phidpotts.” | The writer concludes by saying that it | books like “The Portreeve” and “The | Great Refusal” can be sold for $1.50, then 75 cents is thg outside charge that should be made for books like “The Scholar's | Daughter,” dnd with this view of the | case most people will be inclined to agree. Mrs. Burton Harrison, who has been spending the winter in Cannes, is plan- Bigg to sailnfér home the last of April She will, as usual, spend the summer at her house in Bar Harbor. NEW NOVEL BY MASON. I hear that the new novel by A. E. W. Mason, ‘author of “The Four Feathers,” is to be-ealled- “Running -Water.” This is the first story which Mr. Mason, who | now wrifes M. P. after his name, has | written for two years, or since “The Truants” appeared, 'The scene of the forthcoming novel is laid in Europe dnd a high literary authority who has seen some of the manuscript tells me that it is far and away ahead of “The Four | Feathers,” in fact, quite the best work that has yet come from Mason's 'pen. American readers seem to be taking a | g0od deal of iInterest in the brilliant work of Dr. C. W, Saleeby, whose *‘Evolution, the Master Key,” has lately been pub- lished on both side of the Atlantic. He has so many sclentific books and papers | to his credit that one naturally pictures him as a white-bearded savant, especial- | 1y as he was this week elected a fellow | of that grave and elderly body, the Royal | Soclety of Edinburgh. As a matter of fact, Dr. Saleeby is only 27, and has never. written a line for publication until three | or four years ago. He has the rare fe- licity of being a popular writer and yet holding the respect and admiration of his fellow-sclentists.

Among the various English husbands and wives who write novels in collabora- tion, there are few more facile than Ag- nes and Egerton Castle, and they are to be represented hefore long by no less than three new works. The first is their story, “If Youth But Knew,” which has been appearing serially in this country, and which is to be published on both sides of the water some time during the coming month. It is somewhat on the lines of these authors’ former romance, “Young April,” the scene being laid in that Incredible kingdom of Westphalia™ which Napoleon created for his youngest brother, Jerome. Since this story was completed, Mr. and Mrs, Castle have been working on a new series of romantic tales, not unlike their “Incomparable Bellairs,” although these are stories of the Restoration, and they expect to publish them, after ‘‘seriali- zation,’ in one volume, under the title of “Merry Rockhurst.” This does not compl&te their programme, however, for the authors of “The Pride of Jennico” are also working on a long novel. It is not to be published until 1807, though, and before being printed in book form will appear as a serial in the English “Corn- hill."” —_—————— AMERICAN WOMEN RELIEVE MONOTONY AT ALGECIRAS Highly Colored Tales About Yankee Girls Related by the French Correspondents. PARIS, March ' 24.—American women, who, with their kinsmen, have flocked to Algerciras since the Morocco Con- ference has been sitting, have excited the amazed attention of the Paris cor- respondents there. These Americans are accused of being the only. women not of the bull-fighting races who are frankly enthuslastic at the displays by toreadors, which vary the monotony of the meetings. “The German gretchens,” says the correspondent of Femina, “showed sen- timental dejection. The American women glowed at the gpectacle in the bull ring. Their nostrils trembled with excitement, their eyes shone, their faces were flushed. They caught the Infec- tion at every good play of bull or toreador. Various' offenses against strict Span- ish decorum, “plainly due to American jollity and youth, are laid at the door of these Yankee girl ‘When Mme. Du Gast, escaping from brigand Mors, appeared at Algeciras she was immediately besieged by American women who begged autographs from her. They caught her at the piano in the hotel and made her play the “Star Spangled Banner,” while they all en- thusjastically sang the anthem to her accompaniment. A small American boy was guilty of this: 3 “Madam,” he said, “the next time you are going out to be wrecked in an auto-canoe will you please take me with you?” Another correspondent writes: 3K 4 'y of American women is go- ing about with Antoine, a well-known actor-monger, and the secretary of one of the Italian delegates. They are visiting the country inns, studying the ways of the people, eating rancid ome- lets and stuffing themselves full of local color both inside and out. Before the astonished peasants they execute the| Spanish national dances to the banging of Ted-and-ygJlow ribboned castanets. “It was an American girl, too, who drew a stern reprimand from a young French naval lieuteriant whom ske tried to coax, with winning smiles, into tak- ing her in a torpedo-boat to Oran in defiance of all regulations.” However, the correspondents -have nothing but kind words to say of Em- bassador White, whom they pronounce the best of good fellows in the intervals of work. The fete hd arranged and presided over at the arrival of Admiral Sigsbee’s squadron was the most ele- gant and amusing entertainment Alge- ciras has ever known. Besides, he has frequently promoted all sorts of sports unusual under burning skies. e g HUSBANDS ARE NEGLECTFUL.—Evelyn A. flled sult for divorce against George A.

PARIS, March 24—Fashionable so- ciety is in the melting mood of charity. Scarcely a dinner is given now but the hostess, when the soup is served, orders that each guest must place a dime on the tray the butler passes around. It'is counted bad form to give more money. At the end of the month the accumulated silver goes to the poor. A new fifty-centime piece in his pocket is now as rigorously a part of the equipment of the man who dines out as his gloves. The fad has benefited the decorative artists, for each chari- table dame is determined to outshine her hated rival in the artistic beauty of her collection tray.
