AN EXPLANATION OF THE IRON CLAD
DISASTER.
LONDON, June 3.-The Times prints
diagram giving the frat ineligible ex-
PLANTATION Of the iron clad disaster. Il
shows that the Grosser Kurfurst and
Koenig Wilhelm were steaming along 10
parallel lines close together. The WilS
helm was on the left side and slightly
ahead. Two merchantmen were stand
ing across their course from right to left.
Both iron clads ported their helms and
passed astern OF the merchantmen. The
order was then signalled to "starboard
helm" which the Grosser Kurfust obeyed,
resuming her former course, while the
Koenig Wilhelm continued TO port her
helm. This brought the vessels directly
in contact.
THE COMING coseRfss.
In the House Of Commons this evening

Another marked feature Of these ex-
cursions is the low price charged those
who are expected to pay anything at all.
OF course, as everybody knows, some
body must pay something, for very many
are carried free. All the poor children
in the city who can come under response
bic care are taken free. No child desir-
ing to 60 is ever turned away for lack Of
fare. The object Is to give as many chill
dren as possible q glorious day in the
country at merely nominal cost.
The excursion last year was over the
Hempfeld road to shirlS Grove, near
Washington, and was great success.
By way Of variation change Of route
has been made this year, in order to let
the children see the country along the line
Of the new railroad, which, by the way,
is very attractive at this season OF the
year. We hope the excursion will be
fully as successful as that Of last year,
and that the children will come home as
highly pleased with their day in
the woods. For particulars in regard
10 the trip, we refer the children and all
others interested TO the announcement 10

A New THING IN GLASs.-Jobn Morris.
superintendent of the glass cutting department
Of the Central Glass Works, has invented
new method Of pressing letters 10 glass. The
process is very simple one. The letters to bo
used are raised on the face Of the pluoger used
10 pressing the glass 10 the moulds. This
method leaves the glass plate smooth on either
side, and besides does away with artistic skill
10 coloriug the letters. as any one can take
q brush and fill the letters with the colorlng
matter. As glass is the Ilost durable substance
known aud one Of the cheapest. this invention
will enable insurance companies to provide the
mates which indicate the namo OF their com
pauies and which are placed ou tho property
insured, at much less cost thap the tin plates
nov in use. The glass, too, is capable of any
degree of oruamcntation, and when the die and
pluneer are ouco made thousands upon thou.

The same may be said of oil the varieties OF ad'
