Grove Hill, April 24.

spring term of the Clarke Circuit Court adjourned to-day. The docket was very light, uourt out not open till on account of the illness of Judge Jones, but the docket, both cviil and criminal, was nearly cleared. This was Ben Elmore's first attendance iu this comity as Solicitor. He made a good impression. As the law stood prior to the last Legislature, the court would have convened, in Monroe County next Monday, but the last Legislature passed an act.

authorizing the court to hold in this (Clarke) County two weeks, if the Judge saw proper to have TtirTima -fTii if lie ioiVui1 in-a air hittityi aw liA and this act repeals all Isws in conflict with its provisions. The question is, if it does not repeal the law authorizing the holding of the Circuit Court in Monroe County. If so, they will have no Circuit Court in that county till the meeting of the next General Assembly. FLORENCE. Rev.

This morning it transpired that many leading members of the church are opposed to the resolution as passed. They think that the church should have complied with Dr.

Preston's request and united with' him in his request to the Presbytery. The Presbytery meets at Anniston Tuesday and will doubtless dissolve the pastoral relations despite the resolution. There was. but one dissenting vote to the resolution to-night. Dr.

Souffles. A savorv souffle is one made of vege tables, poultry or game, a delicate, dainty dish, which is raised up to airy lightness by the use of the white of eggs, and which must be eaten the moment it is out of the oven to be in perfection. Potato souffles are especially nice, but, unfortu nately, tins term is applied to two entirely different preparations first, to a fried potato, swolletni by a peculiar method of treating it. and second, to the regular potato souffle. For this last preparation wash and scrub with a brush six potatoes of even, medium size.

As soon as the skins are thoroughly cleaned put them iuto the oven and bake them until they are thoroughly done. Cut off an end of each one and scrape out the contents without breaking the ekius. Mash the potatoes until they are free from lumps. A vegetable press is very good for thw purpose. When the potatoes are mashed and perfectly smooth add a tablespoonful of butter, a tesspoonful of salt, a iH of very rich new milk or cream.

Washing- Gloves. The shops are already making a display of serviceable castor or so-called wash ing "gloves, with good-sized buttons at the wrist. These gloves are not only a good purchase for seaside and country wear, but they are most desirable for general uses The leather is soft and pliable, and sponged every now and then with a little warm water in which a bit of castile soao has been dissolved, they can be kept hr good wearing order for a much longer time than gloves of un dressed kid.

If only slightly soiled, a small nieco of oiled silk wound round the finger and rubbed vigorously over any sort or Kia or gloves will remove all traces of the spot, provided It is not a stain. A woman who tests this easy mode of cleaning kid gloves will be sure to keeo thereafter a length of oiled silk in her drensing-oase. Three-eighths of a yard is enough to purchase at one time, or even one-eighth, as in the fancy dry goods store where it is sold it is kept moist in a large roll, and is thus very pliable. It is well, however, to moisten the Bilk slightly when using itj just as one does a postage stamp, MONETARY CONFERENCE The President Will' Not Accept Any of the Resignations. Washington, April 25.

Process from Artlncial Silk Substitute from Wood Pulp. N.

Y. Tribune's Washington special. A report has been received at the State Department from Consul Loomis of St. Etienne, giving some interesting details and Information' in regard to the Char-doninet process for converting wood pulp into silk. This report will be published and distributed as a general answer to numerous inquiries about the process.

Of course the question has been as to whether the new discovery could be made practically, useful and valuable. Consul Loomis thinks that this question has been answered in the affirmative by M. De Chardonnet, who has built a mill at Besancon, where tbe silk" is now being manufactured. The raw material is made from wood pulp, which is carefully dried in an oven and plunged in a mixture of sulphurio and nitric acids, then washed several times in water and dried by alcohol. The product thus prepared is dissolved in ether and pure alcohol, and the result is collodion, similar to that used iu photography.

This collodion, which is sticky and viscous, is inclosed iu a solid receptacle, furnished with a filter in the lower end. An air-pump sends compressed air into the reoeptacle, aud by its pressure the -oollodiou is passed througli the filter, Which removes all impurities and llows into a tube placed horizontally. This tule is nrcired with 300 cocks, of which the spouts are made of glass and pierced by a small hole of the diameter of the flirwid of a cocoon as it is spun by the silk worm. The spinner opens the cock, and the collation issues in a thread of estivniie, delicacy (it takes sax lo nmks a thread of the necessary consistence for weaviug). This thread is not, however, -fit to be rolled ou the spook by reason of its viscosity and softness; the matter is as yet "Collodiou and not silk.

To produce the necessary hardness the Inventor resorted to a very ingenious but simple The little glass tube already mentioned is surrounded by a emu 11 reservoir of the samp mamprinl ntta.ni filled with wnfc-r.

On account of the materials employed the stuff manufactured was found to "be geroiraly inflammable its original tibility being at the alarming rate of two centimeters a second'. Mr. Loomis says that M.

De Chardonnet has apparently re-. mowed this difficulty "by plunging the spun thread into a solution of ammonia, thus rendering it as slow of combustion as any other material." The consul adds: discovery seems to have a great future. I have talked with great men, silk merchants, brokers, dyers and men who manufactured silk rood about the Chardonnet method of producing raw silk from wood, and it is universally admitted that the process will eventually yield large practicable and profitable results. A great Step has been made toward this end in reducing the inflammability of the Chardonnet silk. An- other practicable difficulty to bo remedial hi the invention is the frequent snapping of the slender threads issuing from the cylinder by reason of unequal pressure.

This makes it impossible to maintain a stan-. dard quality for the output and couse-''' quently there may be produced five pounds 01 a rompaxativeiy wortniesa quality. This difficulty is being overcome, I em told, bnt until it is completely removed iren of large means will not invest largely in the stock of the company which has been formed to exploit Count Char-donoet'j Invention. It appears that down to this time none of the great French manufacturers have Invested largely in the new enterprise, although ell of them profess to believe in it and declure that in a few years artificial silk produced by the new process is destined to figure largely in the commer cial Consul Loomis report conclude a disposition today on the part of.
