A TRANSPORT'S GLORIOUS TRIP, Kor Twelve Thousand Miles, at Ev- - ery British Port In the East, Yan- kee Officers on the McClellan Were Warmly Welcomed-Banqueted at Malta and Snug Auld Lang Syne.\ It was a glorious voyage, delayed by stovm in the north Atlantic and by of- ficlal obstinricy at Bermuda, that the Tnitéd States transport AfcClelian end- ed the other day when she reached Now York, sixty-soven days from Ma- nila, with three companies of United States ongineors, 205 men all told. 'The stars and stripes and the officers And men who represented them on the McGlolian wore tendored ovations at -«evory Hinglish port visited on the way to Now York. At Malta, where the of- flcors attonded a banquet and ball glven by the Royal engineers and ar- tillery, the Cankee officers were car- ried shoulder high around the banquet hall, In the McClellan's eabins were forty- five passongers, consisting of officers and their families, Ioeutenant H. S. Howard, the quartermaster command- ing, sald to a reporter of the New \York Journal: \Our voyage was one continued tri- umph until we reached the north At- lantlc At Singapore, where we re- mained two days to conl, we were honored with two balls at the Raffles hotel, at which were the bon ton of the place. The races were on and the of our party were given seats in the grand staind. \At Colombo we were again lavishly entortained. We went to Kandy, in tho Island of Ceylon, where, the Cey- lonase declare, the garden of Eden was located. \It was fit Malta that we received tho welcome of the voyage. The Eng- lish there could not do enough for us, They even sent out a diver to examine . our ship's bottom plates, The govern- or was about to glve his annual ball in the old palace of the Knights of | Malto, and he seat us invitations, an unusual honor. Lord Charles Beres- ford sind the Princess of Battenburg wore present. 'The Italian Grand Op- - ora company was giving Faust at Malta, and we were invited to hear It. \Tho officors of the Royal enginecrs and Royal artillery capped the climax at a dinner and ball in our honor, Cov- erg wore lid for 100, and the rog!- mental silver on a table of solid ma- boginy mado a gorgeous display, I nover had such a welcome, The spacches wore all of the good will sort, with compliments for Uncle Sam. \After the toasts we formed a ring about tho 'table, taking hold of hands, . and sang 'Auld Lang Syne! Then, be- foro we Iknow what was coming, the English officers had hoisted us on their : shoulders and carried us about the room. We could not take all of them on our shoulders, but we carried the . ranking officors in 'the same way. #I believe thoy would have kept us thoro all night, When it came time for us to go, however, we escaped by back-, ing down the stairway singing, 'For thoy Are Jolly Good Fellows. \At Mbvaltar tho English senior na- val oBleer allowed our ship to coal in- ~slde the breakwater, anothor unusual favor, Wo took on coal enough for sixteen days, but from Dec. 11 to 16 wo wore in a continuous gale from the northwest, I was tossed out of my borth several times, and the furniture slammed about the room. \Wo ronched Bermuda with one » day's cont loft,\ continued Lieutenant Ffoward, \and wore delayed twenty- four - hours . because | the | governor wouldn't pormit us to coal at the an- - chorage, but made us go to Grassy bay.\ The bodies of Captain Eferbert Dra- por of the United States engineer corps and of William B, Tabb, a civil- jan clork, arrived on the transport.

Experiences of the Well Enown Writes Whlic Tenchirg School. Jennie Jups, the late Mrs. J. C. Croly, some years ago related to a cor- respondent of a Now York paper some of her youthful tribulations. At the age of eighteen she was teaching a mixed school near Poughkecpsie, when one of the trustees came to her and sald: \We have two particularly bad boys whom I wish you would take charge of. 'They have been expelled from two other schools; in fact, they beat the tencher, but we hate to acknowledga that they cannot be trained properly. WIll you undertake them?\ It was rather a startling experience for so young a girl, but she had plenty of pluck and waated to please the school committee; so she said yes. They came the uext morning-big, hulking, scowling hobbledehoys, the size of men and with a great capacity for mischicf, as the poor girl saw. She paid no attention to them for quite a while, but at last, with a firm voice, but a quaking Leart, she said: \John Porty and Eben Frost, come to the desk, please.\ John and Lben made no movement. They sat gaping dreaially into space while the assembled school looked on in breathless awe and expectancy. \John Porty and Eben Frost, come here; I want you.\ Some pleassat memories of sports gone by-porhaps of teachers immolat- ed-appeared to move John and Eben to faint smiles just then, but otherwise they did not seem to be alive. \I was never so nervous in my life,\ said my narrator. \I could not ac- knowledge defeat before my whole school, nor could I inflict chastisement So I laid down my pene!l, took up a book, and went and sat beside them. \'Boys I said quietly, 'you are big and strong-almost men, in fact-and I am a girl. You can cause me a great deal of trouble if you want to. I am awfully disappointed. I had hoped that such fine, big toys would be a great help to me in the school. There are such a lot of things that you with your strength could do for me. \'I can't make a good fire, and the awfully hurd for me to bring water from the well or get \Porry moved uneasily here, and I fancled that Frost began to melt a little. \'The school would go on so much, more smoothly if I had good, strong boys that would help me.' \Hore John growled: \'Aw I can make as good a fire as any one.' \And Eben added: *©'Aw, I could get you all the kin- dlin's you want, I s'pose, an' fetch the water! \And they did it, too,\ said Mrs. Croly, \and were excellent scholars ever after.\ FOR HARDENING STEEL, German Inventor Discovers a New Method. & . Vice Consul General Murphy sends to Washington from Frankfurt, Nov. 23, 1001, a translation from the Frank- od of hardening steel in Germany as follows: \The Technical High school in Char- tottenburg has just completed a series of experiments with a new method for preparing steel, and the result will no doubt attract much attention in inter- ested circles. Experts claim that this new invention may revolutionize the entire metal industry. The inventor, named Giebeler, is a small manufac- turer in Mecklenburg, who bas for years been interested in this new proc- ess, but was unwilling to bring it be- fore the public until it had been thor- oughly tested by experts. The results reached at the Technical High school were most satisfactory. \By the Giebeler process all sorts of iron can be given strength and hard- ness double that obtained by the Har- vey, Krupp and Boehler processes, in spite of the fact that the cost of pro- duction is reduced 50 per cent. Project- les fired against a 7% millimeter (305 tnch) shoet of steel produced by the (Hebeler process penetrated only to the depth of one millimeter (089 inch), while a similar sheet of Krupp steel was - completely | penetrated. - With sword blades can be shivered as if they were made of wood. A representative of Mr. Giebeloer is coming to Pittsburg.\ Ancédote of Governor Shaw,. A. story is told of Governor Leslie M. Shaw of Iowa. who has been tendered the treasury portfolio by the president. Populists in the audience were asking a good many questions, especially one half drunken fellow. Governor Shaw unswered patiently and bided his time, says the New York Tribune. A man well down in front insisted on asking a question every five minutes on an average. He usually prefaced them by such remarks as \Just a minute, please,\ or \Let me interrupt for a minute.\ In an unhappy moment be broke in with, \Pardon me, but\- Be- fore he could finish the governor, a rather self satisfied look spreading over his face, replied, \Well I've pardoned losts worse fellows than you in my time, and 1 suppose it would be un- just to draw the line here.\ Special Electric Lamp. It is stated, according to the Balti- more Sun, that Dr. Sophus Bang of Copenhagen, manager of the labora- tory of Professor Finsen, the intro- ducer of the light cure for lupus, has invented a special electric lamp, which gives but a feeble light, but is extreme- ly rich in chemical rays. It is stated the ordinary arc lamp. | , % sword blades of this material other |- thit the bacteriological power of this lamp is ten times as great as that of SHEER MATERIALS, They Are the Proper Thing For Evening Gowns. Never before have evening gowns been so beautiful. They are appliqued and reappliqued until hardly an inch of the original material can be dis- corned. - Wide bands of costly lace are sewed with silver spangles, and these ave placed over materials of cobwebby texture and softness. The lining silks of these gowns are lustrous, and soft Lborty satin is much used, and the necessary fullness below the knees is rfforded by numerous rufiles. | Very often a white gown will be trimmed with wide bands of cream medallion lace into which are set ovals of Per- sian silk or chiffop. Flowered chiffon forms the material of many stylish dresses. It comes this season in very large patterns on cream or pale tinted grounds. Orchids and roses form the most popular patterns, m Q' x\ Jl.

Very. chic and at the same time inexpensive dresses are made of the numerous novelty nets and thin crapes. Gowns of this sort are made up over two linings, one of mousseline and the under one of silk. A dainty evening gown is here pic- tured. The material is pale green tulle striped in silver. The blouse waist is made full with a fichu effect across the bust and tucked shoulder caps. The skirt has a wide ruffle headed by a Irce applique. The whole style of this simple dress is given by the spray of roses which starts on the left shoul- der, is tacked on the right hip and from there falls to the knees. Such floral decorations are very popular this winter, Jupic CHoLLEr. DAINTY UNDERWEAR, Much Beading and Insertion Are Used Upon It. - The newest lingerie is much decorat- ed with beadings, through which run pure white or colored ribbons. Nightgowns are: many of them made of soft china silk, and a favorite model is covered with insertions of yellow Ince. It has a short empire waist bor- dered by two rows of this insertion, and the sleeves are banded with it at intervals of two inches. There is a wide fiat collar edged with lace, of which there is a frill down the front. 'The bottom of the nightgown has a wide flounce, also banded with the in- sertion, The corset cover which goes with this is in the shape of a blouse, banded with perpendicular insertions.

White is used by the best peo- ple. The blouse corset cover in the illus- tration is particularly adapted to a slender figure. It is made of fine ba- tiste and valenciennes lace. The upper portion consists of tucks outlined by Insertions. 'The shoulder straps, also tucked, are edged by.a wide frill of the valenciennes.
