Not angle person either side was found who did
not admit that general strike is not only probable In
the Spring but almost absolutely certain. The only point
IN dispute 70 the grounds upon which turn
out" would be ordered. In the building interest 1t is
rumored that the strike will be upon the issue OF eight
OF labor and the present rate OF while Others
will strike for eight hours work and ten hours wages
and few trades for higher wages with no reduction OF

oealed by the pending the completion OF the organ

The 9ailg Arens,
MRIlAahia Glass


One Of the lost arts, which skill and
science have TOR hundreds of years been
making efforts to rediscover. is the nrn.
duction of malleable glass. 1t was men
toned by many ancient writers, especially
Pliny, who speaks of its being indepted
when thrown on hard substance, and
then hammered into shape again as brass
The world uses vastly greater amount OF
glass now than during the early ages, but
has never been able to overcome its brittle
ness That accomplished and it would
enter into uses not even suspected now,
and probably dispute with iron itself for
supremacy as an agent of civilization. A
glass spinner in Vienna has recently made
discovery that may lead to the recovery
OF the lost link in the chain of early inyen-
ton. He is manufacturing a thread of
this material finer than the fibre of the
silk-worm, which is entering largely into
the manufacture of variety of new fab
RIGS, such as cushions, carpets, table-cloths
shawls, neck ties, figures in brocaded vel
vet and silk, embroidery, tapestry, laces
and multitude of other things 1t is as
soft as the finest wool. stronger than silk
thread, and is not changed by heat, light
moisture or acids not liable to fade. So
important is the matter deemed that
while the process is kept profound secret
the Austrian Minister Of commerce has
already organized schools for glass spin
ming in various places in Bohemia, and a
variety Of manufactured articles are now
for sale and will no doubt soon reach
America If it shall end in the final re-
discovery of malleable glass, SO that it can
be wrought or rolled into sheets, it will
revolutionize much of the world $ industry.
Indeed, no one could safely predict to
what uses it might not be applied, as the
material is plentiful in all lands. Mankind
have long waited for it. Let us hope the
time is near when 50 great boon will be
vouchsafed to them London Times
