The price Of gas In London Is lower now
chan ever before. The city is lighted by sew
tsral gas companies, and the charge is from
Is Sd (78 cents to 3s Cd go cents per thousand
feet. The gas is required to have q lighting
power Of 16 candles when consumed at the
rate of GO cubic feet an hour to be freed from
Impurities In the shape of ammonia and sui
phur compounds beyond certain limited
quantity, and to be delivered under q suffi-
cicnt pressure.
Forty-five millions of pairs Of sewed shoes
and 55,000,O0O Of pairs of pegged shoes were
made and sold by the manufacturers OF the
United States in 1877, and IS per cent Of the
work done on these shoes was done by ma
achinery. The uppers are cut out by hand,
simply because of the variableness Of the
quality Of the leather in the same skin The
souls are cut out by machinery, and the bind
ing, pasting, closing, crimping. stitching,
Feeling and polishing are done by machinery,
without the aid Of human hands.
Russia promises to become q formidable
rival to the United States in the European oil
market. Oil wells near the Caspian sea are
reported to equal in their yield the greatest
wells in Pennsylvania. In the oil-producing
region In Russia large number of wells have
been sunk, and great many more are under
way. Reports from there say that there is as
much excitement over the discoveries as ex
listed In Pennsylvania when the oil fever was at
its height. The wells are drilled and pumped
lin the most primitive manner, and large
amount of oil is wasted through the want Of
proper means Of saving it. At present the
only way OF getting the oil to q market Is by
way of the Volga and the Russian canals to
St Petersburg. If a railroad should be con-
structed from the Caspian to the Black sea, q
distance of 400 miles, Russia could supply the
European market at such rates as to drive
out the American trade.
One OF our exchanges talks out in meeting
a,nua oass d sf 81 Tia scrongest monopoies in the
country Is the Pullman Palace Car Company.
They are not only leeches upon the public, but
Gley levee tribute from the railroad in the
country with an iron hand. A passenger who
desires to make night ride with some degree
Of comfort is charged S5 for n state-room
ahout the size Of a sardine box-more than 1t
ssosts at q first-class hotel for three good
meals and nights lodging. Should pas
senger feel that his pocket-book is not pie
thoric enough to stand this heavy tax he can
take @ sky parlor berth and sweat till every
drop of water in his system Is absorbed by
Gi1e few garments that decency compels him
TO sleep In. For this luxury passengers are
asked to contribute 81 so to the monopoly,
with stipend to the porter who has nosesi
around all night to find the boots and spit on
and give them q Click and promise" 1t is
safe to say that a small amount Of comfort
costs more money in palace car than any
place in the country. It is to be hoped that
the time is not far distant when railroad COM
panies will be able to provide the travelling
public with at least some of the sleeping cal
t,onveniences at a reasonable price.

LawIessness I'm West Virginia,

WHEELING, w. Va, October l.-Day
before yesterday morning a mob of thirty
men, called the ''Red Men," visited the
residence of Joe Eakin, at Burton, this
state, ard took hun TO the outskirts of
the town, and there told Ealxin 10 choose
between death and being ridden on "a
rail. Eakin did not choose, and upon a
vote being taken it was decided to tar
and feather him and ride him on a rail,
which was accordingly done. The Red
Men" claimed that Eakin was living in
state of adultery with his Supposed
wife. The vigilants visited another man
the same night near the town and told
him that he must show his authority fol
marrying his second wife while his first
remains alive. This "Red Mems" bust
ness Is becoming very montonous in this
