4 HORRIBLE CoNFEssIoM-Or
'weln. the murderer Of the Hamnett
family at Homestead. near Pittsburg,
Pa, has made another confession. 1t
will be remembered that the family,
consisting Of five persons, were MUIR
,dered in cold blood and their dwelling
burned, apparently without motive.
The murderer has already made con-
1tession, which was published in full at
the time. He has now made another.
In which be states that he attempted
to outrage the little girl Ida, only 10
years old, but that she screamed, and
woke little Emma, who hid in another
room from fright. He being afraid of
being lynched for the act, concluded
to kill tse family and burn the house,
and thus leave no trace of his crime.
The prisoner expresses himself as want
ing to die, in order that be may expiate
his terrible crime. His counsel has
served out a writ of error, and will
bring his case before the Supreme
Court for rehearing.

HERD OF CAMELs IN NEVADA
On aranch on the Carson river, eight
miles below the mouth of Six.mile
canon, is to be seen a herd of twenty
six camels. all but two OF which were
born or raised in Nevada. But two
CT the old herd of nine or ten brought
here some years ago are now living.
1t would seem that the original lot fell
into the hands of Mexicans, who treat
ed them very badly, overlooking and
abusing them. The men who now
have them are Frenchmen, who had
formerly some experience with canals
Ia Europe. They fad no difficulty in
rearing them, and can now show TWEEN
ty-tour fine, healthy animals, all of
Washoe growth. The camel may now
be said to be thoroughly acclimated in
the State. The owners of the herd
find it no more difficult to breed and
rear them than would be experienced
with the same number of goats or
dookeys The ranch upon which they
are kept is sandy and sterile in the ex-
IRENE; yet the animals feast and grow
fat on such prickly shrubs and bitter
weeds as no other animal would touch.
When left to themselves, their great
delight, after filing themselves with
coarse heritage Of the desert, is to lie
and roll in the hot sand They are
used in packing salt to the mills in the
deserts, some sixty miles to the east
ward. They have animals that easily
pack LOO pounds.

How Thlnlbles are Made.

The manufacture of thimbles is very
simple, but singularly interesting.
Com silver is mostly used, and is OBJ
tanned by purchasing coin dollars.
Hence it happens that the profits of
the business are affected instantaneous u.s.
ly all the variations in the nation
greenback promises to pay The first
operation strikes novice as almost
wicked, for it is nothing else than put
ting lot of bright silver dollars, fresh
from the mint, into dirty crucibles,
and melting them up into solid ingots
These are rolled out to the required
thickness, and cut by stamp into cir
cular pieces of any required size. A
solid melted bar Of the size of the in
side of the intended thimble, moved
by powerful machinery up and down
in bottomless mold Of the outside of
the same thmble, bends the circular
disks into the thimble shape as fast
as they can be placed under the de-
scending bar. Once in shape, the
work of Frightening, polishing, and
decorating is done upon lathe. First
the blank form is fitted with a rapidly
revolving rod. a slight touch of a
sharp chisel takes thin shaving from
the end, another does the same on the
side, and the third rounds off the rim.
~ round steel rod, dipped in oil and
pressed upon the surface, gives it a
lustrous polish. Then little revol-
wing steel wheel, whose edge is raised
ornament, held against the revolving
bla ak, prints that ornament just out
side the rim. A second wheel prints
a different ornament in the center, while
third wheel, with sharp points, makes
the linden tations on the lower half and
end of the thimble. The inside is
frightened and polished in a similar
way. the thin bic being held in re-
volying mold. All that remaius to be
done is to boil the completed thimbIes
In soapsuds. to remove the oil, brush
them up, and pack them for the trade.

THE urIrrp STATES sENAronsnIr.

We direct particular attention to the
advertisement of the Democratic eKecu-
tive committee in regard to the United
States senatorship. 1t will be found on
our first page. 1t advises the Demo-
cratic voters Of Shelby county that
without violating the code, and so
throwing away their votes Gust what
the dark-lantern people want they
cannot express their preference for
United States senator on the ticket for
governor, member OF congress, and
members of the legislature. No office
can legally be voted for except those
specified in the sherifi's advertisement
authorizing the election, and any ticket
voted on Tuesday, the third day of
November, that contains the name Of a
candidate for United States senator will
be thrown out. Democratic voters will
make a note of this, and also of the fact
that the committee, with view to give
them an opportunity of expressing their
preference for United States senator,
will provide blank tickets and a separate
box, under the charge Of a competent
person, who will make returns to the
executive committee, which they will
promulgste to the public. While still of
the opinion that this question of the
election Of United States senator is a
dangerous obtrusion, not warranted by
party usage, by necessity or sound poll
cy, we are free to say that the commit
tee have in this way made the best pos
sible disposition of it.
