Eom the Ne'c York Times, April 6.

The returns from all the depart
mcnts Indicate that tho plebiscito ot
Tuesday has resulted in an over
whelming victory for tho dynasty.
In not a single one has majority
been cast against the proposition
"Shall the Empire DO nude heredi-
tary and perpetual :" Count Sim
mons, Project of the Department OF
the Bay, telegraphs us that though
the Republicans claim that every
county gives them majority, and
that tho former State Of Massachu
sotts has cast 10000 votes against
che Empire to 716 for it, thore is l,u
doubt whatever that whom tho Re-
turning Board comes to canvass the
returns it will DO found that the de-
partment has gono for the Empire.
1t will be remembered that the
Times alone of all the metropolitan
papers announced an Imperial Veto
ny on Wednesday morning. Hoavy
monarchical gains are everywhere
reported. Podunk Centre, with a
population of 270, cast 395 votes for
them Empire and against it.

a steel Pen Menufaotory, and tho Vari-
GUS Processes Employed

Everybody who has used Gillott's
303's will be interested in the follow
ing description of q visit to the
manufactory in Birmingham, whicl
is taken from the Aatyiish NE
ch03eic: .........
The workors are almost all women
who amount altogether to about foul
hundred. The men and boys form
the minority, and work in tho pri-
mary departments---in othor words,
they do the rough work.
The first department, in which only
men and boys work, prepares the
shcots of steel required. These are
mude to certain lengths, measuring
from two to four inches in width, ac-
cordinS to tho various sorts of pens
manufactured. When the different
sheets are prepared they are he, lded
to the stamping department, where
the first and subsequent processes of
pen making are gone thu ough. There
"re altogether twenty-four processes;
every single pen has to GO through
them all before it is completed and
tit for use. Each worker has a sep-
arate table, with the stamping ma-
chine on it, and stool TO herself
Nearly all the processes are done by
stamping. When stamped out the
pen, any kind whatever, is at at first
rerfcctly flat The sheet used is
rolled and placed on the ground Oh
one eide Of tho tablo tho worker
t ks hold Of the unrolled end and
passes it at regular Ill tervals beneath
the stamper on the block, and by
the help Of q continuance worked by
tho feet, or by q motion of the han
die, the stamper descends with a
sharp rap and rises up again imme-
diately. With great rapidity the
pens are removed from the block,
and the sheet pushed on. Tho pro
cess IS similar to that of the stamp
ing of seals on paper, with the ex-
ceptlon that in the case ofpen-lnaking
the steel sheet is placed on the matrix.
The subsequent processes, such as
rounding the pens, putting on the
9 me and number, splitting tho
nibs, a"eail execute by t ,mpins ma
chimes nearly in the same manner 40
t ie first process. In every case only
one single pen is done ut time.
Ihe last process is the tempering,

the twenty-third process the pen re-
noains ii II brittle state, and hence it

ell The pens Zone sort at time)
are put into q large pan placed with
in heating apparatus large cop
per cylinder-Dut not directly over
the fire ; and by an ingenious pro-
cess they ure kept constantly
stirring and shifting about, 80 that
an equal degree of neat is impaired
to each single one. This process
goes on for short time, and, whtn
ended, the hot pens are scat. e:e on
the HNor to cool, which being dcne
the work is completed, and the
manufactured articles are ready for
use.

A Little Comparison.

The wrath of the conspirators
who, having stolen three States, ore
SO full OF wrath at loss Of one vote
in Oregon, reminds us OF the Missis-
sippi gambler who, while engaged in
a game aboard the steamer, with
his panta]oons stuffed in the top of
his boots, was observed by specta-
tor to have in the same locality, the
top of the right boot, n card skill
fully concealed. This card the
spectator who saw it Immediately
abstracted. When the time came
for tho use Of the boothidden re-
serve, the ganabler reached for it.
The first expression of his faco was
ludicrous. His jaw dropped and o
wild light CLEANED from his be-
wildered eyes. From this, however,
he rallied, and Indignation took tho
place Of amaze ment. Bringing his
clenched hst down upon the table
with o force that made the glasses
jingle, he roared: by, there's
cheating about this board"

FIN SULKY takes the gold medal in
the sulky pillow trial.
This was probably the largest and
most closely contested field trial ever
had in the West, continuing during
tho entire week, twenty -onc compet-
itors in cultivator and sulky plows
participating, including all the prin-
cipal manufacturers of these imple-
ments.
The "Gilpin Sulky" was also award-
ed the first prize for best work at the
blowing match at tho Iowa State Fair
last month. This, the manufacturers
claim, is about hundred premiums

Eleven thousand Iowa people have
registered at the Centennial. Count
ing their expenditures at 1925 per
head that cleans $l,375,0OO out Of
Iowa and makes us just that much
poorer. When this immense drain
is shut of money ought to be more
plenty in Iowa. We make very
low estimate on this expense as many
persons estimate it at 500 each. II
the latter is fair estimate, and we
don't know but that it Is, $4,000, 900
have gone from Iowa. Taking Iowa
as an average State, the Centennial
will cost the people of the United
States ssl, 100000. Perhaps this has
a little something to do with hard
times In some localities.

John Gray, who has been visiting
his brother in Kansas for few
weeks, returned to-day at noon. The
small boys will of course visit John
and have a romp with those prairie
dogs he brought homo with him.
While he was in Kansas he went
down south of the Arkansas river in-
to tho grazing country, where he
could SEQ 10000 Texas long-horns at
once, and 5000 or 5000 sheep grazing
on the buffalo grass. He says the
country is very rich, easy to cultivate,
ae blowing can be done at any season
OF the year. He says Sol Gray has
l6O acres of land In cultivation, and
that Mahlon Hoover has finely I'M
proved farm, and they arc well salts
fed. There is plenty of land open to
government entry. A great many
persons are now settling there and
moro coming. While at old Fort
lara, he shot jack rabbit, tho ears
Of which measure ID inches from tip
to tip. Hc has left them in our Office
as q sample Of what Kansas produces.
