THE ACED STATESMAN AND
Wife Being Coagmtulnted by Nearly
Kvery hotly but the I^omloa Time*—
How the Grand Old Man
Looked When Young.
Tram the Chicago Herald.
London, July 28.—Sir. Gladstone, on
Wednesday, strengthened his position as
sole proprietor 0/ the title "Grand Old
Man” by celebrating his golden wedding.
As the leader of home rule and of all
healthy political life in this counlry, he is
the Englishman most interesting to Amer
icans, and to them his golden wedding
should betheintemtingevent of the week.
The celebrating was done quietly in the
afternoon at Spencer House. Mr. and
MK Gladstone drove up in an open car
riage, both smiling most placidly.
Mr. Gladstone looked even more
Gladstonean than usual. He wore
a very light duster and in his but
tonhole a very big white flower. His
collar was the highest he has ever been
seen to wear. His cravat, which he evi
dently controls himself, was an unusually
wild jumble of crumpled black silk, while
his silky hair, still plentiful and evidently
Mrs. Gladstone's especial charge, was
•plastered carefully down all around, be
traying a wif*Iv cfesire to conceal the few
barren sjiots on the great statemau’s pate.
As hej'umped nimbly from the carriage,
helped Mrs. Gladstone out and shook
hands with ten men in ten seconds, even
the most hardened of Tories must have
confessed hinj to be truly the grandest of
old men.
Mrs. Gladstone was beaming all the
time. She usually is in such a state of
blissful pride at the sayings and doings of
her grand old spouse as to be almost ob
livious to everything else, and on this oc
casion her state of rapt admiration was
unually marked. She wore a white bon
net, and over her shoulders an old white
lace shawl given to her on her wedding
together. The cost of extracting it has
been the great and only hindrance to its
general use. In 1863 its value was $240
per pound, and the following year a chem
ical discovery dropped its price to $44. \
steady decrease since then has taken place
to about $5 per pound, at which price its
uses an enormous, hut nothing to compare
with the alfcged Krupp 25-cent value.
As iron weighs three times as much, and
is, therefore, one-third as bulky as alumi
num, when the latter can he obtained at
three times the price of iron, that metal
will be supplanted rapidly. Even at the
Krupp price, it will pay to build railroad
trains ol aluminum, because of the greatly
reduced weight afforded. This dead weight
of trains is a prodigious expense to rail
ways, nine-tenths of which could be saved
M constructing freight and passenger cars
aluminum weighing from naif a ton to
a ton each. The adaptability for tin's pur
pose. may be instantly seen in roughly
stating aluminum to he far stronger than
steel and as light as chalk. Locomotives
needing traction weight would still be
made of iron and steel, though they could
he reduced in weight materially in propor
tion to the diminished dead weight, or the
old engine unchanged would be enat-led to
add ten aluminum cars for each one of the
old style discarded. It would be equiva
lent to doubling the freighting capaci y by
counting the weight of present cars ana
their contents as equal in reducing the car
weight to a practical zero.
Aluminum conducts electricity better
than iron, the comparison being one-third
as well ascopper, while iron is one seventh,
hence aluminum will he ustd for telegraph
lines. The metal being so light and strong,
inch rods will hold up the wires as well as
the largest telegraph poles under greatly
reduced weight.
Houses could be easily constructed by
pouring the metal into ordinary sand or
metal molds. It melts easier than silver.
Every part of the domicile could be cast
on the spot in this way into a solid mass
of movable parts, such as doors, windows,
transoms, scuttles, could be made of the
THE DRUMMERS
Take a Spin Down the Geor
gia, Southern & Florida
AND ARE FEASTED AT VIENNA,
Ami Return to Macon rieaiietl with the
rienmirei of the Trip-gome Reso
lution* of Thank* from the
lloj* of t fc e Grip.
Pursuant to the pleasant announcement
made in the Telegraph a few days since,
the Drummers of Macon had their excur
sion down the Suwannee River Route on
the Georgia Southern and Florida rail
road on yesterday. Col. Jett' Lane was at
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
depot awaiting for the boys, and was dis
appointed that all of the travelling men
were not present. This was owing to some
misunderstanding as to the hour the train
leave.
Promptly at 8 o’clock Conductor Terrell
Smith sang out: “All Aboard,” and the
happy excursionists were on their way to
the great “State of Dooly.”
This was the first passenger train over
Macon’s new road to Florida, and the
drummers, representing the big city of
Macon, recognized the honor paid to them
in tendering them the maiden trip.
The management of this new road ■ cer
tainly shared no expense in purchasing
day, and she looked very sweet and old"
fashioned. Lord Granville read the ad
dress, lo which were signed 116 names of
■Well-known admirers of Mr. Gladstone.
The address was a good one, and free from
the commonplaces which naturally distin
guish addresses to commonplace folk. One
paragraph described well the distin
guished couple’s life: “As one of you has
known no loftier duty than the fur
therance of national well-being, so the
other has had no more cherished desire
than to lighten the burden and smooth the
path in this high task.” Those who had
signed the address had bought for Mr. and
Mrs. Gladstone three huge cups of massive
silver and paintings of themselves by dis
tinguished artists. Mis. Gladstone, who
can mike as good a speech ns anybody,
thanked evere one. Mr. G'adstone did
the same. He spoke of his happy mar
ried life in a way that set the dignified
statesmen present to wiping their eyes.
Earl Granville, having finished the ad
dress, made a speech of hie own, telling
his own great love and edmiration for Mr.
Gladstone. Thereupon the grand old man
almost wrung the Earl’s hand off, nnd al
together it was very touching and cheer-
In the evening there was a celebration
dinner at Mrs. Ashley Pansonby’s in South
Kensington. Lots of home rule friends
came in afterwards, including Oscar
'Wilde, who is a good rabid home ruler
politically as well as otherwise. The
Grand Old Man talked about Ireland and
discussed with Mr. Cox, M. P., who has
tried it, the brutality of Irish prison treat
ment. Evorvliody elae, of course, talked
about the Gladstones, and some very an
cient celebraters were able to tell how
handsomo Mr. Gladstone waa and how
beautiful Mrs. Gladstone was when he
was a young man andshewas MissGlynne.
Somebody had a clipping from a newspap
er of 1838, the year before Glad-tone mar
ried, which gave the following interesting
description of the great statesman in the
bud:
“Mr. Gladstone’s appearance and man-
nors are much in his favor. He is a fine-
looking man. He is about the usual height
and of good figure. His countenance is
mild and pleasant and has a highly intel
lectual ex pression. 11 is eves are clear and
quick, his eye-hrows a remark and rather
prominent. There is no dandy in the
House but envies what Truefit would call
his fine head of jet-black hair. It is
always carefully parted from the crown
downward to his brow, where it is taste
fully shaded. His features are small and
regular, and his complexion must be a
very unworthy witness if he docs not pus
ecus an abundance of health.”
Mr. Glad tone in those early davs had
already been fur some time a member of
the House of Commons, and was regarded
as a rising man. Mrs. Gladstone told how
ehc fir t met him at dinner and became es
pecially in crested in hiui on hearing an
wld politician say: “Mark my wo ds, that
young man, if he lives, will one day he
prime minister of England.” Mr. Glad
stone hits justified the prediction by being
prime minister three times.
The London Times has not a word of
congratulation fur Mr. and Mrs. G ad-tone
inlniorof their golden wedding Mr
Gladstone has declined to prosecute the
exiiltd ynutg Getuian who had threat-
emd to talc his life bicau-e Mrs. Glad
stone hud misled a manuscript on baby

wiilu ul being asked. Mr Glsds-one had
bis life so ollcn threatimd anonymously
that one thnat more does not make
much difiirtnrc. A ridicul es rumor i too c
has recently been Homing aVont of j tact
Mr. Gladstone’s intention to climb into
the upper house and sit among the Lords
as the Earl cf Flint, that title being looked
tij- n as the probable one on account of
Mr. Gladstone’s landed possessions in Fiint-
riiire. It is ditlicult to imagine how
same bright metal, and just as heavy
or light as desired.
Ships larger than the Great Eastern,
with less draught, could be constructed
nearly entiiely of aluminum, including
the machinery Bird boilers, which at pres
ent weight down vessels seriously.
“The stone age held fast our ancestors in
g condition but little better than that of
our arboreal progenitors, the apes; the
bronze age was a great step ahead, and ihe
iron age ushered in civilization and made
it possible. We afe now living in the lat
ter pait of that p. riod and beholding the
dawn of the aluminum age, which will
confer blessings a million times greater
than can be understood under existing cir
cumstances. The possibilities of cheap
aluminum are limitless. Aerial
navigation will be effectually
settled, and monstrous aluminum
airships will literally give wings to com
merce and settle the tariff question by ren
dering trade as free as the medium in
which it will be conducted. Cities of sol
id aluminum will spring up everywhere,
fireproof, indestructible, paved with the
white metal, lighted by electricity passing
over aluminum wires to towers of the
same substance. Railway beds, sleepers,
ties, rails, bridges, and all will be cast sol
idly in their places, with airy aluminum
palace cars dancing over the lOOmilesand
more. Floating bridges can be built upon
the seas; wide rivers can he spanned by
cobwebby but strong structures at small
expense, and in a ft w days where years
were previously required. Sanitation wil
become a great practical possibility, and
every one, no matter how poor, can have a
home of his own far better than the pres-
sent ordinary dwelling. •
Transition stages such as this involve
rapid and decided changes from past
modes of living, and, like all other civi
lizing influences, aluminum will prove to
be a great leveler, for wealth will decrease
in the hands of the few and increase in
those of the manv. Old time manufactur
ing processes wifi be killed off and thou
sands lose employment, to be re-employed
in new industries or adaptations of the old
to the new. Carpentering, cabinet making
will give wny to fabricating furniture,
wagons, carriages., etc., from the new
metal, with the result of cheapening all
the implements and vehicles of life, and
secondarily all products, such as clothing,
shelter and food. Great wealtli will lose
its power and poverty be practically abol
ished.
Two Urent Soldiers.
Blakely lull’s Berlin Correspondence.
At the height ol the munching of sand
wiches and the quailing of beer, an old
man, with a face like shrivelled parch
ment, a spare figure and a benevolent
smile, tottered through the doorway. It
was Mollke. The instant he appeared
every military man in the room shot to Mb
feet a. thqugli blown from a gun. Officers
of the highest rank stood at attention as a
common soldier does at the appearance of
his commander. The famous field marshal
saluted in return, but with an indescriba
bly meaning mii le as he put his two fingers
to iiis forehead 1 hen he sat down 1 ike
the rest, bared his head for a breath of
air, and, waving his hand comprehensively
around the room, smiled utni nodded in a
cheerful and suggestive way. The panto
mime saitl as iiliiittly as words could have
done: “Thanks. Sit down, it is very
warm.” Then Von Mollke laid his famous
II, Id marshal’s baton—which is not such a
gorgeous bauble -f:cr all—on one of tin
tallies, straightened his hack, and, s izing
II gi: i i of bee r that was held out to him
drained it lo the dregs. A man of c-vi
den Iv high rank in the army stepped tor
..Ml, You Mouse waseiritiKing the
hei r, and, raising the baton from the- leery
table, held it reverentially in his hand,
He evidently regarded the emblem as ol
Ited a" nature to permit of its con
tact with a beer soaked table, but Mollke
had apparently forgotten nil about it, foi
when i.c boarded the train half an hoiti
later, the officer s.ill wulkiel liehim! carry
ing the symbol of the I rehest post in lit

The Ai-tibiiiuni Age.
Vrom the Chicago Tribune.
It is reported that at the Essen Krupp
Gun Works, mvir_Cologne, Germany, tlm
ibctal aluminum is being rapidly turned
out in one hundred- pout d ingots at a cost
of 26 rents per pound. If this ta true, iu
lull aignificance is not realized by the pub
lic, for this silvery metal ia the most abun-
^htiit in nature. Common clay anywhere
Tjlsist from two to ten pounds of it in
“’ 100 |.minds. It ia therefore more
l than *
t iron or all the metals taken ' homage.
mediately after his accc-sion to the tliron .
Blumenlurl had handed his coat to one cf
his uni-, his hut to another nnd his baton
ft) a third when he'entered the restaura:
tor a glass of beer early in the dsy. From
thst time he paid not the slightest autu
mn to his three aids, blit sat solemrly ill
a corn r wagging his head in a melancholy
fashion, and pounding the table vigorously
as he whis|>eri-d in the ear of an Austrian
prince. Both of Ihe great field marshals
wandered off when the train came i_to the
station, but the instant they left the dining
room they found guards of honor in every
direction, and passed through long files of
officers in the customary pose of military
their passenger coaches. They arc first-
class, and were built by the Ohio Falls Car
Company, at Jeffersonville, Ind. These
elegant coaches are furnished with Baker’s
latest improved fire-proof healers; but the
slate of tlie thermometer of yesterday ren
dered it cut of season to test this feature
of the new purchase.
For the present only a cheap, though
neat, order of furnishings nre used, and
elegant plush seats will be supplied when
through trains are run to Valdosta, which
will lie about the first of November.
There was much to interest along the
route. The country is thickly settled and
cozy farm houses Ve everywhere to be
seen.
Indeed it is a splendid section through
which this road runs. It is unsurpassed
in the State. Already the farmers have
availed themselves of the benefits of a
railroad, and diversified their crops. It
was a matter of astonishment to see so
many melon pa'ches. Mr. Holder and Mr.
Willis, whose farms are some ten miles
from Macon, especially hat good luck with
their melons, and sold their last shipment
of melons for S240 per car.
All along the route the whole people—
the men, women and ch Idren, and the dar
kies, too, turned out to witness the first
passenger train speed its way aiong their
homes and to greet the drummers with
their smiles and snouts of joj and welcome.
But it was reserved for Vienna to do the
thing hxndsome in this line. When the
excursionists arrived at Vienna the whole
whole town had gathered at the
depot to greet the first train and welcome
the drummer’s,
■The vast throng repaired to the court
house and were welcomed to the city of
Vienna by Colonel George Wooten, who
was spokesman for the liberal hearted citi
zens, nnd a hearty welcome it was.
The drummer’s pressed into service the
Telegraph's representative, who respond
ed in behalf of the knights of the gr:p.
From the court house a happy descent
was made to the dining halls at Rev. M.
F. Morgan’s and Dr. Stovall’s, where a
glorious feast awaited the visitors.
On the return trip before
reaching Macon the boys got themselves
together and appointed the following com
mittee to draft resolutions expressive of
their sentiments, to-wit: Judge S. H.
Shepherd, chairman, J. Jacobson, linn-
do ph Jeter, C. II. Garfield, Jack Jones,
and John Farrar The committee report

We passed along with scarces glance at
these side shows, for w e were anxious to
face art ostrich—with a stout fence be
tween. VePuind rh we approiciied that
tin* protective provision was elouhly em-
l{hastzed, for there were two stout w-ooden
failings keeping ns at a respectful distance
it m his tti-aj -sty, stalking around in soli
tary grandeur, or stopping ro gaze at us
with a vicious craning of Ms long, lean
neck. There were twenty full-
grown ostriches, each in a separate pen, or
rather o|ien space fenced in. They looked
about seven feet high, even toiler when
they suddenly stretched out their necks.
But, oh, the gorgeoitsnesK of their wings!
Great masses of r.ch, black, velvety ostrich
plumes, drooping off into a snow-white
cluster at their ti|is. I wonder that kings
do not renounce the traditional ermine
and assume these more majestic em
blems of royalty. These birds are
perfectly bare above the neck and
legs, and though their whole body ia cov
ered with rich plume*, the fullest and
longest, and choicest are gathered from
their wing*. Twice a year they are plucked
and the anneal revenue* which they bring
to their possessor is, according to all ac
counts, quite a little fortune. The finest
pair are valued at $800. They live on al
falfa, a sort of clover (of which this coun
try produces three and four crops a year),
pounded oyster sheila anil corn, their
prodigious digestive powers rather
Bnubbed, it seems to me by this mild diet:
perhaps, however, it serves to slacken their
depraved propensities, for I was told that
only a short time before one of the keep
ers was picked and bitten to death by the
savage onslaught of one of these ’birds.
The ostrich eggs are huge affairs, as large
around as a quart measure. The lay out

Cl*-
piroutte, one of the eggs broke open and J f /
out popped a li tie ostrich. Immediately r^-Z-Z'C.
H ere was a great commotion, and every- . , J. , - v _
body rushed breathlessly in our direction.
The keeper was told the’ newB, and came
hurrying on with ejaculations ot surprise.
He vaulted the two fences at the furthest
distance front the mother ostrich and made
in the direction of the new comer; but
when the mother bird took long strides in
his' direction, and manifested a lively
curiosity as to his purpose,
the Keeper vaulted again over
the nearest tence and disappeared from the
scene. It was quite comic al to see the old
bird with her new-born offspring. At first
she_ disdained to notice the little thing,
which looked about the size of a two-
months-old chicken, and sought to follow
the parental guidance by running a few
steps, and then quite unexpectedly top
plingover or turning a feeble somersault. I
had quite hateful feelings against the
mother bird, who by this time stood pranc
ing before us with her long, beautiful,
droopy plumes. I think site saw
by our expressions that we did not ap
prove of such Hjtartan motherhood, such
unnatural _ calming of the emotions, for
she immediately turned upon her heel and
bestowed a motherly kiss upon her solitary
scion. There was a thrill of satisfaction
alonp the whole line of spectators when
she finally set herself down upon her nest
and drew the ugly duckling unde
shelter of her rarely-pltimsged wings.

Why Seth Low Cannot Support the Itepub-
Dean Plot form.
From the New York -Times.
The First Ward Republican Association
of Brooklyn did not have a very cheerful
meeting last night, though an effo t was
made at its close to enliven the droop'ng
spirits of the members present by railroad
ing into membership some two dozen new
persons. Seven resignations were received
—those of John I., Mofit, George B.
Moffat, R. I*. Moffat, G. I>. Coggeshall,
Henry Averill, William G. Low and Seth
Low. Most of these gentlemen gave their
reasons for resignation to be their inability
to support or abide by the Chicago plat
form.
Beth Low’s letter to the Secretary is as
follows:
D ar Sir: 1 herewith tender my resigna-
tiod as a member of the First \Vard_ Re
publican Association. 1 do so because I
am unable to support the (tarty upon the
platform recently adopted at Chicago. I
believe in protection for the country as a
means to an end; I glory in the results'
achieved under it in tho last twenty-five
years, but to my mind the signs are many
that in not a few directions protection here
has done its perfect work and is now doing
harm. Therefore I believe in a revision
of the tariff upon principles directly op
posed to the Chicago platform. I hail
hoped the Republican party would itself
undertake to remodel the tariff upon lines
that would gradually transfer the indus
tries of the country from an artificial to a
rational basis. I believe that such a
course is demanded by the true interests
of labor.
The policy actually outlined seems to
me full of danger to the country. The
higher and the tighter the dam is made,
the greater will be the destruction when
the flood breaks through, and I can not
believe that a country so large as the
United States can he permanently held
al of from the great trade movements of
the outside world. I remain iu sympathy
with ihe Republican party aa to many
points, anil especially am I with them in
their nttitude toward State matters, hut in
asmuch as I feel compelled at the present
time to be controlled by the foregoing con
siderations, I deem it proper to place my
resignation at the disposal of tlie associa
tion. Respectfully, Seth Low.
The resignations were accepted as the
letters were read by the association with
out debate. Before the meeting adjourned
ex-Judge Joshua M. Van Cott made a
speech, in which he referred to the olel
record of the Republican party, and ex
pressed his surprise that the gentlemen
should leave it for so small a matter as n
slight difference in the degree of tariff
protection.
