men were hired by the day bought ineir own food and found their oun lodgings but in the country on i tie farms or wherever a hand was employed oil some public work they were l<d and lodged by the employer mil given a few dollars a month on the peunsylv nia canals the diggers ate the coarsest diet were housed in tue rudest sheds and paid 0 a month from may to november and s5 a mouth from november to may hod earners ana mortar mixers uiggurs and ciiopper who trom l733 to 1800 la boreti on the public buddings and cut the streets and avenues of washington received 70 a ye.-.r or it they

to m lintain lus family th5 credit system the nebraska supreme court has decided th it a mortgage on a growing crop cannot operate as a charge on corn in the crib even if proved to be product of the mortgaged crop the decision rests on a sound and healthy basis which rejects the idea of predicating something on no thing establishing a debt upon an in visible and uncreated consideration that is possibly to be but is not in ex istence and is outside of sound reason and good judgment the system of predicating the pay ment of money borrowed upon the uncertain outcome of labor to be done and crops to be raised dependent upon the uncertainties of seasons and favor able weather or the successful control of that labor has been the most dam aging element in retarding the agricul tural growth or the south as well as the demoralization of its laboring pop ulation establishing a false and rnin ous credit system which is always de trimental to the laborer xatehez democrat i^j i mi i i»m the best way tn attract and to hold the attention is never to weary an au dience but to always to leave off with something still unsaid it is a mistake to tell all that one knows in a first ef fort for during an ordinary lifetime there will be ample opportunities to use all the information any one may possess amateur who aspire to the dignity of professionals should culti vate terseness and simplicity as the highest conception of the rhetoricians art having once expressed an idea should never repeat it should avoid the the quagmire of wordy elaborations and above all else when they have | finished their subject they should not forget k stop orphans friend trusts compared to dams baltimore sun the rev e o eldridge pastor of exeter street methodist episcopal church also preached in the morning on the flood and its lessons he said the first lesson is man's weak ness god's greatness man made the dam — god ma e nature and it was one of nature's forces that of unsel fish utility as compared with selfish pleasure seeking the true end of man is service and not pleasure nd while happiness always follows in the wake of service when sought as an end in itself it is always a failure who built that dam and what the motives a few wealthy men in the city of pittsburg and for the purpose i of pleasure only and notwithstanding i the fact that vigorous protests from the citizens of johnstown and vicinity were entered at the time the work was projected we are told so careless was the manner of the dam's construction that the ordinary precautions for such j a structure were neglected thus was constructed the largest reservoir in the world two hundred feet and over above the villages and cities of 50,000 j people many of whom were constant \ ly in dread of its power we do not propose to place the responsibility but will say that if the facts have " been carefully reported culpable and crimi nal neglect has been indulged in it is a fair sample of the selfish pleasure seeking spirit that is abroad to-day numerous trusts and syndicates like i huge dams are concentrating millions of money for the enrichment and pleasure of the few at the expense of the many it lays its covetous hand upon all the smaller firms compels them to enter or forcibly destroys and when it has the commodity under its control inflicts upon a helpless com niun.ty the anomallv of want and often starvation in the midst of plenty the indications point to a railroad and we have put our engine on the track our people should bear in mind that an election will be held in this county august 15th next to determine whether or not stanly will subscribe 100,000 to the building of a railroad through the county beginning at s.il isbury and going in the direction of wadesboro — i scheme by the yadkin j railroad company we don't know j much about the project but it appears hopeful as much so perhaps as any scheme of recent years one thing we do know this route is the most natural the shortest and cheapest that can be built in the county and our citizens should stand not only ready but anx ious to vote ihe subscription required we have a good county rich in both mineral and timber but we can never realize our wealth nor feel our im portance until we possess railroad facili ties therefore it behooves us as a peo ple to work for this end we cannot get a railroad that will pass every man's door so patriotism should rise above self and every mm labor and vote for the common good — stanly obser ver a wron.7 word saves a life strange results have before now been brought about through accidents in writing but it is questionable whether the anecdotes have recorded anything more curious than the saving of a man's life through a slip of the pen such a thing lias just occurred in si lesia a wheelwright named kontny was indicted at the oppeln assizes for the murder of his wife in a fit of jeal ousy the jury found him guilty by seven votes to five and sentence of death was passed in the usual form when however the convict's advocate came to examine the record of the | verdict as written down by the fore man of the jury he found that by a slip the word studen had been acci dentally substituted in the place of stimmen by which it appeared that the murderer had been found guilty by seven hours 1 instead of seven votes of course an appeal was im mediately taken and the imperial court of cassation being unable to make sense of the record ordered a new trial the second jury was more tender-hearted than the first and kon | tuy was only found guilty of man slaughter the penalty for which is twelve years penal servitude st james gazette the cotton harvester is at last to be practically tested the mason cotton harvester co of charleston who have for several years been perfecting their picker have made a contract with the chattanooga agricultural works for the manufacture of a num ber of their pickers in time for the coming crop mr john p richard son one of the mast extensive planters in the south after a careful investiga tion has agreed to buy a number and estimates he will save 830.000 in the picking of his cotton crop compared with hand-picking he says 1

producing sheet metal direct from the molten state instead of roll ing it from a billet or bar a ma chine of this character has been at work for several months at the can factory in may wood near chicago it is used for making sheet solder six or eight inches wide and 15-1000 of an inch thick which it produces at the rate of 400 feet a minute the apparatus consists of hollow rolls with cold wnter running between them the water is introduced through the axles and the rolls are of sufficient size to at once change the jet of melt ed metal into solid form as fast as it is fed the powerful compression i.s ex erted by rolls upon the molten metal in forcing it between the two surfaces and at the same time changing it to i solid body tends to give the sheet an even an highly finished surface the inventors of the machine believe that the principle could be successfully ap plied to the rolling of bessemer steel i as well as to softer metals mr 0 vv potter and other osb ers o t!i »
