William n. CurtlHS. the American correspondent who Ih traveling In Eu rope, writes from Athens: At every railway station wcrocrowds of people, many of them In the pictur esque native costume, which Is a crosi between that of n ballet dancer and n Highland chieftain. The kilts are white cotton, accordion plaited, and worn over white woolen tights, with black Barters below tho knee. The shoo or slipper Is shaped like a Turkish caique, without a heel and curling up over the toe like nn old-fnshloned skntc, having n large rootte or pompon silk or black cotton upon the tip of it. The Jacket Is beautifully embroidered, for the house dress In gold, for the street costume In braid, and Is sleeveless and open In front. The sleeves of white cotton nro full and (lowing, and the front of the shirt Is plaited. The collar Is it stiff circlet, embroidered with gold thread or braid, the girdle Is of leather, and sometimes n sort of shawl that Is quite bulky. A Greek gentleman lu full dress or n servant In complete livery will wenr a pistol and two or three daggers A Ulii:i:iC IN NATIYU COSTUMR. stuck In between his belt and his shirt front lu a handy sort of wny. Tho peasant wears n leathern belt, with a sheathed tlngger or a pouch over the pit of his stomach from which the handles of n knife and a revolver usu ally protrude. The Greek still wears the red Phrygian cap upon hts head, and tho tassel hangs down upon his shoulder In nn artistic pose. A "well-groomed Greek" Is the most picturesque looking object In Europe. There Is no costume that will comparo with his, but. like nil other national peculiarities, It Is gradually becoming obsolete. You boo It In the country towns of the Interior, but In tho cities very few people wear It excopt old fashioned gentlemen and tho servant class. Tho aristocracy dross their ser vants In that wny, making It n sort of livery, and thnt practice, I am told, has made It unpopular among tho mechan ics and tho working classes generally, because they fear peoplo will mistake them for household servants. LAST SHOT OF THE CIVIL WAR. Capt. H. II. llurton, n Tcxun, Claims He PM red It. "I alone, sire, am tho rear guard of the grand nnnyl" exclaimed Marshal Nov ns ho llred the hiBt Bhot nt tho Cossacks on the bunks of tho Iler Islno, In the re treat of Napoleon from his disas trous campaign lu Itusshi. When n line of Confederate env airy was slowly retiring from the Held on tho plains of Brazos Suntl- t.vi'i. iiAtiui.t ugo In Texas, where the blue and gray had met In deadly encounter for the last time, a soldier turned In his saddle, and after repeating the words of the great French marshul, he threw his gun to his shoul der and tired. It proved to be the last shot of the last buttle, und it was cer tainly the Inst shot of the long war. Tho mnn who describes this event and who clulius lie Is entitled to tho dis tinction contained lu being Its central tlgtire Is S. II. Barton, of Del Rio, In wchteru Texns, where ho owns a Hue ranch. He wns a captain lu the Con federate army, und he was held In high esteem by his superiors und dearly loed by the brave Texnus, whose dim gers and privations he shared on the march and lu the trenches where balls fell like hull. Promotion tougut him many times after the smoke of battle had cleared from a red Held and sol diers were talking of his duuutlebs courage, but he preferred to serve with the comrades of his boyhood. The story of that last battle, which wns lought ou the 13th of May, 1SU5, after the war was euded and peace de clared, has escaped the attention that It merits, for It wus un affair of no lit tie Importance. Gen. Egbert Brown, who recently died ut West Plains, Mo., was In command of the Federal troops lu southern Texas, und he was doubt leas well Informed concerning the termination of hostilities. Gen. J. E. Slaughter, who commanded the Cou fedaret troops encamped at Braiot Santiago, had heard rumors of the sur render of the armies commanded by Lee, Johnson and other geuerals, but h had received no official notice of these facta from the War Department Gt-n. Brawn, under a tlag of truce, In formed the Confederates of the state of affairs about Washington and Rich mond, at the same time Inviting them to cAtne n and lay dawn their arms, u Uit war was certainly over. WWW bt LH W I '" 1 Gen. Slaughter refused to act In an affair of such Importance until he was better Informed. Thereupon Col. Bar ret, at the head of a considerable force, was dispatched to break up the rebel camp. A hot battle ensued, and curi ously enough, most of the fighting was done on the old Qeld of Palo Alto, where Gen Taylor achieved n victory over the Mexicans nearly twenty years before. The French soldiers enenmped on the southern shore of the IlloGrnndo were In sympathy with the southerners, nnd they kept Gen. Blnughtcr and Col. Rip Kord posted ns to the movements of the Ecdernl troops. Several spirited encounters occurred nnd the loss sus tained by some of the negro regiments must have been severe. While tho bnt tie raged tho Confoderarcs were fre quently Informed by some bold cavalry men In blue thnt the war was over. One daring fellow shouted: "Leo sur rendered n month ngo. The war Is ended. Why don't you go homo?" When tho engagement wns hottest Gen. Slaughter received dispatches nnd tho French sent him n bundle of news papers. Fully satisfied that the cause for which they were lighting wns for ever lost, he ordered tho llilng to cense. At thnt particular moment neither side could have claimed nny advantage over tho other, but both armies began to re tire from the Held at the same time. As Cnpt S. II. Hnrton, In command of the rear gunrd, wns slowly riding nway n stray bnll struck a young man by his side nnd he fell from his snddlc. That was certainly the last mnn killed In the long war. Cnpt. Barton wns unable to recall his name, "i thought that was hard luck," snys the old soldier. "The young mnn had served four years nnd never got a scratch. The last bullet that came our way killed him. Prompt ed moro by a spite at fate thnn bitter ness townrd the enemy, I turneO lu my saddle and llred toward n dark blue lluu which I hopo was out of range. Thnt wns certainly tho Inst shot of the great war." MINISTER WU LIVES IN 8TATE. Chinese Legation One of the Finest In Washington. One of the hnndsomest of the foreign legations lu Washington Is the Chi nese, located nt Q nnd 18th streets. Tho houso has long been considered ono of thu show plnces of Washington and Its flue location and beautiful arch itecture make It most Imposing. It Is of white Indiana stone, with red tllo roof. Tho hallway Is of oak, with n largo stone frieze, nnd from It ouo en ters the larga reception room known as tho onyx room, which Is distinctly orlcntnl In character. Farther on Is tho parlor, finished In light woods nnd decorated and finished In delicate col ors. When tho Chinese, minister moved Into tho houso ho added much of his owu furniture nnd ornaments, brought from Chlnn, to the various nit; ciiiNtst: u.UAno.N, apartments. He converted the oriental room Into a verltublo Chinese apart ment, and In this room the minister nnd Mrs. Wu receive their guests, whero tea Is Invariably served. One of tho most prominent features of this' room Is the "knng" or seat of honor, n largo nnd mngulllcently carved plcco of teak wood furniture resembling somowhnt a large settee, with a black ebony table or tray across the center. Tho custom Is to give tho guest of honor one of tho sents on the dlvnnllko chair while the minister takes the oth er, und tea Is served on the llttlo trny. One of the handsomest rooms In tho building Is the Immense ballroom, and Is considered the tluest lu Washington, It Is finished lu carved stone, with n balcony for musicians and nn Immense space for dancing. New Use for Cinders. George F. Avcrlll, living nt Arverne, L, I., says that he has discovered a means of using the waste coal ash cin ders that will make the hitherto use less material of great commercial value. The use which Mr, Averlll has found for these coal ashes Is In a uew kind of fire-proof mortar, 00 per cent of which ts mado up of coal ashes and the rest double hydraulic cement. Mr. Averlll has had tests made under the supervision of the department of build ings In Manhattan, which show thnt the lusulntlng properties of a block constructed according to Mr. AverlU's specifications nro very great. A Question of Climate. An old colored preacher was telling his congregation that after death they would probably go to the moon. After meeting one of the best Informed of the brethren said to bliu: "Br'er JIuklns, don't you know dat de moon la cor ez Ice, en alu't got no fire tall In it?" "Br'er Thomas," replied the parson, "ef hit's fire you a-wantln', des keep on In de way you gwlne en you can't mlsa U." Atlanta Constitution. New Word nr Indian. Prof. W. J. McUee of the bureau of ethnology'bas coined the term Amerind to deslguate the American Indian, and It has beeu officially adopted by the bureau.
