PHILADELPHIA, Pa, December 1s.-A
convention OF manufacturers Of reapers
and mowers has been in session in this
city yesterday and to-day, They met to
consider the conditions under which they
should enter upon trial Of the merits Of
their machines. Mr.. b. II. Warden, OF
Springfield, O., was elected President, and
q. W. Allen, Of Auburn, N. Y, Score.
tary. Mr.. LandrGth, Chief Of tho Cen.
tennial Bureau Of Agriculture, presented
n plan advising an open trial Of oil ma
chimes represented at the exhibition.
There has been considerable opposition
manifested among the leading members Of
the Convention to this scheme, although
il was generally admitted that American
manufacturers could safely compete with
Europeans. One member declared that
the Centennial Commissioners wanted q
general exhibition for the purpose Of
making money, and that, while the COM
mittee had Disseminated against the man
ufacturers, the latter had done much for
the Centennial movement. A committee
appointed 10 report on the question pre-
sented resolution advising action by
Joint Committees Of the Convention and
the Centennial Commission at the meet
ing Of the latter In January next, wher

Longevity OF BraIn.WOrkers.

DR.. George NJ. Beard presented re-
cent paper before the American Public
Health Association in which he success
fully refuted the assertion Of Thomas
Hughes, NJ. p, in the "Life Of Alfred the
Great" that "The worlds hardest work.
ers and noblest benefactors have rarely
been long.Iived." DR.. Beard based his
combination upon facts gained from trust
worthy registration reports and from the
yearly neurological records, and upon
these he was able to build up an invinci'
BILE demonstration that brain-woFkers are
us a rule, longer lived than muscle-wOrk'
ers, and that the greatest and hardest
brain-workers Of history have lived long
or on an average than brain.workrs o.
ordinary industry and ability.
Compiling list Of 800 Of the mos
eminent men Of all time, and including il
the catalogue with rigid impartiality Tho
names OF many like Byron, Raphael, Pas
cal, Mozart, and Keats, who died young
it was found that the average longevity
Of the whole list was Oh 10 years. Thi'
exceeds by IA is years the average age o
those Of all classes who live over twenty
years. A second list Of 100 men famou
in the fields Of active thought gave III
average longevity Of 10 years, that Is, o
20 years above the average Of all classei
taken indiscrimiputely.
As to the causes Of this greater longevi
ty among brain-workers, DR.. Beard re
marked that "brain.workers have les
worry and more comfort and happiness
than musCle.wOrkers," they find pleasure
in their work, and can adapt 1t ito thei
moods and hours, and periods OF creates
capacity for labor" and, generally, the!
respect the laws Of hygiene, In referring
to the causes Of exceptional longevity o
great brain-wOrkers, DIR. Beard pro
nonnced them quite complex, yet classes
them all under the four following genera
heads: |. "Great men usually COM
from healthy, long.lived ancestors. 2,
good constitution usually accompanies I
good brain. 3. Great men who arc per
manently successful have corresponding!
greater wills than common men, and fOrcC
OF will Is a potent element in determining
longevity. 4. Great men work NOR
easily than ordinary men,"

his love letters to her, in one Of which he
speaks Of the Suez Canal "the road which
our soldiers will some day follow, to take
India from the English" All Europe

the rest Mr.. Disraeli, Premier Of Great
Britain. He reads the above sentence Of
the Russian Prince, works one eye, says

Mhr Enumeration Enlla on.

Immigrants are no longer sending the
favorable reports to their friends which
twenty or thirty years ago went all over
Europe. In a newspaper Just come to
hand, and one favorable to this country,
there appears letter from one Of these
immigrants, in which the writer says that
II il estimated that there are about fifty
thousand able.bodicd men on tramp in
New England, demanding food and
money, and that the people are scared to
death at the mere mention Of the word
tramp, and that the feeling Of many Of
the people Ia such that they would arrest
every tramp and lock him up, but untor.
tunalely all the prisons in Massachusetts,
are full, and this method will not work
for want Of more prisons. He represents
most Of these men as being willing to
work, but cannot get 1t, and cites cases
where they Contrivc TO be arrested as
criminals In order 10 have shelter.
Again, in quite long account Of the
troubles at Fall River, In speaking Of the
rules which the employees had to sign, he
says that when a republican compels a
iellow.CitiEen to sign document similar
to what was called the "tiCket Of leave"
among the building trades Of England a
few years back, and when that citizen
signs such document, republicanism be.
comes farce. This is only a small sam.

which are reaching Europe, and they
contrast very unfavorably with some that
reached there formerly to the effect that
everybody could get work and thateyery.

II a person wishes to throw of the dull

at the Buckeye shops. The room IL kept
neat and clean and the engine is always
in fine order, but the great attraction now

and creeping vines, give an appearance oil

themselves curiously perplezed by the
