Paris, June 7.—There are in all about 10,000 Americans who rent or own hand some homes in Paris. They live in New Paris, up around the Champs Elysees chiefly, and us neiu* the Arc de Triomphe as they can, and though the English, Russian and even the German colony is larger, the American residents have ex erted a more tangible influence on Paris than all the other foreigners put togeth er. This is chiefly because this handful of expatriated colonists are women, rich, clever daughters of Columbia, who, with the characteristic independence of their Western blood, refuse to yield to the old law, which says, when you are in Rome, you must do as the Romans do. They La Duche c se De La Rochefoucauld’s Louis XV.

They all speak French, and it's an exploded notion that they don’t go Into smart French society. Most of them do, at any rate, and some of them have married titled and brilliant Frenchmen, but in spite of all influences to the con- Entrance to th* Counter* Castellane’s White Marble Trianon Talace. trary they continue 10 Americanize their homes. In this respect iliey disregard cos* and the tradition . and they refuse, as do the English, Russians, Germans, etc., to live like French people. The very first thing an Amerl tn-bred woman de mands are her comforts and conveniences In housek' * pil:and she has obstunlte ly refused to accept the icrench substi tutes for these. All the electric lights in private houses, lie elevator* in apart ment buildings and hotels, the Improved plumbing, iho pantry ice chests wid elec tric belli now to be seen so frequently In Paris are due to that same American wo man, who, when she couldn’t find them in that city of pleasure, imported them from America, was first scofTed at. them laughed at and finally envied and imi tated. Wlint American Women Have Done for Purl*. The proud citizen who points out the houses of the great folk to-day lingers lovingly over his descriptions of the gor geous Asenseur in this mansion, the shin ing bathrooms in that, and an actual shiver of delightful excitement went through smart circles when the Marquise de Choiseul, who is a New York woman, put in the back of her husband’s beauti ful old city mansion a lift to he used by the servants and luggage. Art treasures and splendid architecture actually sink in- to insignificance beside these wonders of scientific living, all of them directly at tributable to the Americans, who, like the Englishman with his hath tub, or Mary with her little lamb, Insist on having their steam heat and elevators wherever they go. Of course, It required time and patienue to achieve these admirable ends, for Pa risians as a rule are accustomed to sit ting in a temperature of fifty degrees all winter, climbing from three to five flights of stairs even In their most elegant apart ment houses, and using the washstand basing as a bath tub. The first woman who s< t about to revolutionize the domes tic life in l'arls was Mrs. Bell, who died not long ago, and who loved to tell the story of the excitement created by her hath room. At really great expense she had o charming American bath room with liot and cold water, outside plumbing and a stationary washstand built next her own suite of apartments In her roomy house. Site even had to Import expert workmen from New York, and all the materials ex cept the bath tub and marble slabs from the states. When the whole thing was THE .MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, JUNE 17. 1900. complete it created as big a sensation in sman French society as a coupt d’etat or anew genius of the Theater Franeais. Parisian friend* of Mrs. Pell brought strangers to her house on reception days and begged a i* ep for them at the famous bath room, much as a glimpse at a newly discover© masterpiece of Raphael might be requested. To-day it is easy enough to have water works throughout your French house, if you like, and all the business of setting them in place will be done by French plumbers, but they make whacking charges for the same, and are so clumsi ly inadequate that when Emma Fames and he Countess of Castellane were building, American workmen were again Imported for the difficult jobs of intro ducing the mechanism that gives the modern American home the aspect of be ing run hy magic. To .arrive at this American perfection of domestic machinery is what the Par isian strives for immediately a fortune is made or Inherited, and if anybody doubts, the statement it is only necessary to investigate some of the new apart ment houses in the fashionable residence district or the line houses on the big bou levards. An apartment h'ouse with steam heat, a lift and electricity Is no longer a novelty in Paris any more than a private residence with bathrooms is a curiosity. Yet in spite of all the* French do them selves, the American residents go them one better, arid the Castellan© house on the Avenue de Bols de Boulogne, the Ev ans Hotel on the Champs Elysees, Mrs. Moor’s lovely place on the Avenue Kle her, etc., remain as the standards of lux urious convenience. A Franco-A merlon n Palace. The Castellane palace—for a palace it really is—presents only the end of one pink veined marble wing to the tree shad ed avenue. Its spkndid entrance, copkd exactly after that of the Grande Trianon Breakfast In a Franco American Garden. at Versailles, opens on n side street. On either side, where the great glass doors open, are tremendous gilded iron Louis Quatorze lamps lighted by electricity, and while the arrangement of the rooms and their furnishings match in detail that of the palace of 'Madame de Main tenon, and even the kitchens are faithful reproduc tions of those typical of the time of Louis le Grande, the touch of inventive labor saving American genius is over it all. The house itself is only two stories high, but little electric lifts or dumb waiters run from wine cellar to the roof. There la an admirable little contrivance that communicates directly between the kitch en and the countess’ own bedroom, sliding noiselessly through the walls, for the pur pose of sending up her morning’s coffee the instant it is complete. Beneath one wing of the house is a laundry on the American plan that Is the envy of all the countess’ wealthy ami titled friends. Three women are steadily at work the week through in the washing, drying and Ironing rooms, for the eountesH lias a fad for wearing white lawn ami muslin frocks. Her children dress exclusively in white needleworked frocks, and the house linen is far too fine to suffer the usual Parisian maltreatment; hut in spite of the daily bundles of fragile white wearing apparel tossed down the long wooden chute to the women in the basement, the labor, save that of ironing, is wonderfully light ened by machinery and steam. There is an amazing little contrivance for wash ing and stretching line laces, and in n pleasant room off tht* laundry sit a couple of the deftest needlewomen, whose basi nets it is to inspect every article of cloth ing, every sheet and towel before it iu placed on the dumb waiter that whisks it in snowy piles up into the house linen room, and the care of n maid who sorts end lays away all the fresh washed clothes. These “stoppeurs.” as they are called work the crest and initials on anyth ng that lacks the totem of its owner, in* nd iace, tike i*p broken stitches in em broidery and lay darns in Swiss mus lin or the finest hand-woven linen hand kerchiefs that failfy defy dis. ov ry un der anything less than a strong r ad ers’ microscope. It is altogether a marvelous system that this enormous house is conducted on. for. though un like tie Duchess o: M Ibo rough at Blenheim, the fount* ss of Castellane has' not three an Ia half inil*s of car pet needing a brushing eve y day, she does possess nearly an acre of plate glass in her town hou-e, an 1 yards upon yards of brass, silver and nickle trim mings to be polish and he id* ha dwo and f.ocrs tl at would cover a m adow, and every inch of these s srfac -s is rub bed down every clay, and once n every * glu months the whole marble exterior of the house is gone over to keep it in g. od condition. \ Salon !*•< ll< k M. *•< >f com ee, It couldn’t b< loin vs thout an arm) • I set an • kept at beck an 1 <al> in pala ts, unless she had all tho*< mechanical devices to spring an rt at the touch of a button.” and dared an admiringly envi us Paririene. “That is w: y we I'm h pe pi- rgird you Americans as the nv st luxuriors be ings in the work!.

This American wo man has picked them up in a few years, and one of her salons taught the native duchesses that they still had some lessons in luxury to learn from the pretty Amer ican. It is called the salon des roses, for one-half of it is glass, the walls treated in a lovely tone of green, and aside from the gilded cone furniture, upholstered in loose green brocade cushions, every bit of the decorations, bric-a-brac, etc., con sists of roses, plants In full bloom. On the mantle shelf window sill, on the floor, tables and numerous brackets stand pots of exquisite red, white, pink, cream and even black roses. Every plant has Its healthy roots deep in the rich moss-cov ered earth that fills its own artistic green, reel or blue pot, and so long as the buds are unfolding and the full-blown flowers shed their sweetness on the mild sun lighted air of the house it remains to win admiration and enjoy the personal care of the Duchess. Just so soon as every plant’s blossoming time draws to a close it is carried away by the florist in charge, and anew bloomer put In its place. At times and even in the wintry months this salon contains as many as thirty pots of lovely rose trees, some of them standing five to six and a half feet in bight and some showering their deli cate flowers upon an Invisible green wire trellis. These the mistress of the house prefers to palms and the stiff, boxed trees that French taste has made fashionable, and in her never-fading bower live her bulflnches, German canaries and a healthy, gloriously-voiced mocking bird, brought herself from the United States. In all Paris there is not another conserva tory like this, which Ls the sort of dainty fad that would have delighted the extrav- agant, beauty'-loving Empress Eugenie.” Electrlcn I House-keeping. It is worth while for an American w r ho wishes to see what impression her coun try women have made on Paris to walk up the Avenue do l’Alma, w'here the mod ern, graceful American church stands, a very worthy neighbor in beauty of arch itecture to that most fashionable of Par isian houses of worship on the Rue Chail lot just beyond. There are many Ameri cans resident on this street, and further along in the square nam ed in honor ot' the United States, stands a charming cream stone house that belongs to Madam Emma Fames Story. One of the first French architects designed k for her, wreathing In little musical Instruments, with the fanciful carving over doorways and win dows. Inside, however, tin mistress de manded that every arrangement should be made for the introduction of all scien tific comforts and aids to housekeeping, and her wish has been gratified. It is Madame Eames Kit ping House by Tele phone. one of the rare houses in Paris that wears u homelike appearance, and in many re spects the Czarina of all the Rusdas en joys no such luxuries as are the lot bf this beautiful sing* r, who entertains con stantly, and specially her American friends. Ail the mantle shelves in the house are of carved wx>ds or marbles i'rom New England, and one-half of the furnishing is ‘lone in old colonial mahog any brought from Maine and Massachu setts. Perhaps that which gives the mistress of the mansion the greatest pleasure, however, is the contrivance arranged for her by a clever young American friend, an expert electrician, tlwu literally per mits of housekeeping by the pressure of buttons. When she goes to her desk in the morning she spends twenty minutes keeping house, and often not a servant enters the room to give information or receive orders. Beside her charming desk is a telephone stand, and from her chair she can talk with, first, the cook, then the maids, then <he laundress and the coachman. A row of pins before her in dicates the kitchen, laundry, pantry ,e c.; another row of pins signifies her florist, nastry cook, groc* r. the cremerle, and so on the rounds of tradespeople, even to h< r stationer and dealer in music and 1 >lano tuner. In the shortest possible space she ha® dispatched all the important but uninter esting business of the day, and is ready to go to her famously beautiful music room or spend a half hour with her oecreiary. From her desk to her kitchen runs also a pneumatic tube, by which w'ritten or ders, letters to be posted and notes to be delivered are dropped right into the lap of the seryant. In winter the house is heated throughout, while In summer con cealed electric fans drive a continual breeze through the tiled hall and the drawing rooms that are partly furnished with palms and flowering plants. Houses like this have not failed to open French women’s eyes and make it clear to them why the American women get on with so few r servants and yet manage to keep house and maintain their place in society as well, heeide carrying on with all these cares so difficult and dlaiingulahed a profession as that followed by Mrs. Story. Two Fninoos Hosteasea. Among the American hostesses in Paris who have astonished the natives by their splendid hospitality end Western innova tions is Mrs. Moore, on the Aver.ue Kle ber. and Mrs, Tuck, who owns the model apartment on the Champs Elyssees. A hush of something like awe comes over Parisians when they apeak of Mrs. Moores while marble mansion, with Its Greek ter race at the back, where ept*t'ially favored friends are sometimes asked to exquisite little breakfast parties. The terrace and garden are even more p*rfect than thoee at the famous hotel Ritz, and from its grassy lawns a visitor can step down to a faultless basement gymnasium and to the white marble plunge bath. Every fair morning in spring breakfast is served in the garden and the faultless meals are designed and chiefly prepared by a fat, black, clever negro wt>man, who was im ported for the purpose from Virginia. Mrs. Tuck in the lady who taught French architects how to build apart ments on the American plan. Until her coming two and 1 three-story apartments were unknown in Paris, but in the hand some building on the Champs Elysses a duplex was contrived with a butler’s pan try fitted in detail from America. Mrs. Tuck entertains lavishly on the great boulevard end out at her country place next door to house is built on a porflon of the property that once belonged to Josephine, and the rooms of the American's mansion are fill ed with exquisite empire furniture that to collectors is almost worth its weight In gold, for much of it was used by the sad empress in her years of unnatural widow hood. A trifle further along from Mrs. Tuck's apartment, and on the moat beautiful street In Europe, stands the Evans house, now the temporary Parisian dwelling of Mr. and Mrs. Potter Palmer, who arc keeping open house during the exposition, and give notable luncheon parties in th?, famous stained glass breakfast mom of this truly regal residence. AU the walks and ceiling of this room represent ocenes of Roman. Greek. Persian and mediaeval feasts; the floor ie? done In glass mosaic, and under the regime of the Potter Pal mers, not only the delicacies that the French markets afford, but every dainty from America, is served quite as if the fastest steamers required five hours in stead of five to seven days to cro-se the ocean. A like liberality ir entertaining pre vails in the lovely house presided over by Mrs. Horace Porter, who, though he found it ample for her needs and charm ingly furnished, preferred to have bath rooms attached to all the bedroomp, a* in her New York home, and was ac cordingly provided with these conveni ences. that in the American estimate of life are the common necessaries for de cent living. “Do you wonder we gasp when we hear of women who merely speak like the fav ored few in the “Arabian Nights” and are immediately obeyed?” asked the French woman who talked it over. "We gasp and are learning all the time from thi& handful of rich Westerners. On the other hand, I think the 10,000 Americans resident of Paris have taught us to be shockingly extravagant, and the very foot of their living here, their style of en tertaining and their luxurious demands hove in the past fifteen yeans raised the whole scale of living 50 per cent, in re finement as well as in cost.” Emily Holt. CHINESES IDEAS OP GINNERY. Am 11.ing Account* of ChliiMt Port* and Arnenal* of Shanghai. From the Engineering Times. Lord Charles Beresford, discussing the openings in China for mechanical engi neers, gives an amusing description of Chinese forts and arsenals. “I would like.” he says, "to tell you one or two stories thoroughly characteristic of the Chinese. At Shanghai. In the superb arsenal under the superintendence of Mr. Bunt and Mr. Cornish, both British me chanical engineers. I saw an Armstrong gun which had had the bfeech-plece re paired in a most clever manner. Asa mat ter of fact, it was really a Krupp gun, but with an Armstrong breech mechanism. On asking for explanations I was told that the original breech-piece had been blown out. and on visiting a fort later on I found out how and why. At this fort I congratulated the mandarin on having the guns (sixty-seven ton) mounted in proper positions, and I was afterward shown the powder used. I then said: 'You surely do not use this powder in those guns?' 'Oh, yes,’ replied the mandarin, 'we do.’ But in will blow the breech-piece* out.' ‘Yen, it does,’ was the reply. One gun on being ilred blew the breech off and killed four teen men; and then they tried the other gun and killed twenty-four men. "Later on I visited another battery, where there were five sixty-ton guns. Ob eervlng the arrangements of these. I ask ed the mandarin where hts 'front' was. The mandarin pointed In one direction, but the guns pointed In another. I men tioned this and the mandarin nodded and said he thought there was some mistake. I then pointed out that only one gun could be fired safely in the desired direction*. 'Oh, no.’ replied the mandarin, 'we should fire them all. At my request the experi ment was there made, and on pointing the guns around as desired they became an echelon, so that the wave of concussion of one gun would have destroyed the de tachment on duty at its neighbor. Know ing this. I placed soldiers' hats and clothes about the guns, and on firing the tatter In succession these garments were blown sky high. 'You see?' I observed to the mandarin. 'Yes.’ replied the latter, 'we should have had some men killed, but the stuot would have reached, the enemy, wouldn't It?’ "At another place there was a sixty ton muzzle-loading gun, at which the ar rangements were such that the gun was actually loaded in the magazine. A bad ly sponged gun or burning wad might, therefore, have blown the whole up. I pointed this out, remarking that I had never seen anything so dangerous. The mandarin smiled, slapped me on the back and said: 'You are the cleverest man I have ever met. That Is Just what hap pened last year. We did fire the gun and the magazine blew up. I will show you where.' About fifty men had been killed In this explosion, but no alteration had been made In reconstructing (he battery. Later on I went to a powder mill and found there excellent machines of Ger man make. I noticed, however, that there was too much powder In tb* pan. and, fuVther, thnt the windows we|> ail open and protected by gratings. Hence It was possible for dust or grit to blow In. and, getting into the pan, it would lie liable, by the friction caused, to start on explosion. I pointed this out and the mandarin re plied: ‘Yes, It blew up like thnt last year; this is the new place we have built since.' "The Chinese were also delighted with me at other arsenals having no European superintendent when I showed them hot* to set their speed and feed gearing for the mochlne tools. "In one place I found a man boring a six-pounder gun. and the tool pratesling most vigorously against the ill-treatment. 1 showed the man how to adjust tt, and got it going properly. The workmen gath ered in a corner and talked excitedly. I asked what they were saying and was told: 'They are saying that England produces the most wonderful mandarins in the world. We have many, but not one of them knows anything about any of tha machinery in Iho shop.' “ II TRIEND TO THE SICK. GRAYBEARD Is made of fresh herbs, blossoms and berries.

GRAYBEARD OINTMENT Is necessary at this season when eruptions and skin outbreaks are prevailing While you may expect no permanent relief from deep-seated blood troubles, short of GRAYBEARD, there aie mu or troubles which the Ointment will lellcve speedily. It is one of the handiest little boxes of medicine a family ever had in the house. Letter From Tennessee. Dear Friends: I have been suffering twenty-three years with an ulcer on my ankle. Sometimes in bed—sometimes on crutches. I used remedies of my own, and falling to make a cure, I called in different physicinas. They all said that they could cure me. but found it to be cf a stubborn nature and failed. I saw GRAYBEARD advertised and I bought . * 4 bottles of It— -2 boxes of the pills— -1 box of the ointment. It cured me well. And I have one bottle left. I say that I am well—not near y well—but entirely well. It has been over twelra months and no symptoms have returned. I hope the suffering will do as I have; use it. have faith in it and he cured. Jan. 1. MRS. JANE GEORGE, Rockvale, Tenn. Letter From Texas. Ballinger, Tex., Jan. 29. "I thought I would write you what your wonderful Graybeard has done for me. I had Catarrh of the head about 35 years, and suffered a great deal. I have tried many kinds of medicines and have been treated by doctors, though all of them failed to cure me. And I being so cl 1 and my disease so chronic, I didn’t think there was any medicine that would cuie me. But mor" than two years ago I had very plain symptoms of Cancer on my nose and face and decided to try G aybeard, not thinking that it would cure my Catarrh os well as Cancer. I bought 8 bottles from Mr. Pierce, and less than 6 cured me. This has been more than two years ago now and no symptoms of the o and disc ises have appeared. I can praise Graybeard for what it has done for me. P r one ne- and never think they ore ioo old for Gtay beard to cure them. I am now 75. MRS. RHODA DEAN.” Clip this and keep It before you—because It may be valuable to you somo day. II is failure (o purify the Wool that produces the worst forms of Rheumatism. It Is neglect to cleanse the blool that starts Cancer. All chronic diseases orgl nate in impure blood and if neglected will pass down from sire to son. It Is good |olicy. wise and right, to take care of our health. We believe strongly the more we see of people and their vari ous diseases, that it Is far easier to pre vent ailments than to cure them.
