PAPER Barrels.

A company in Connecticut make bar
rels, kegs and cans from paper pulp,
which is done wholly by pressure by
screw or toggle joint, or both combined.
The barrel is made on a shape or form
to make the inside, and outside of this
is another to make the outside, the inner
form being hinged in sections to admit
of its folding On itself for the removal of
the barrel ; the outer form contracts by
the action of screws, self-operating,
during the process of shaping the bar
rels. One machine is capable of pro-
ducing 200 barrels per day. The heads
of the barrels are produced by similar
means, but on a much simpler machine.
These are disks with a rim slightly pro-
jecting on n face. In some cases both
heads are cemented in and Strengthened
by an iron hoop at each end. When
removed from the machines the barrels.
kegs, heads, etc., are placed in q kiln or
drying room, where they remain from
three to tw~enty-four hours, accord
ing to size and degree ofheat admitted to
the room. The barrels are coated inside
when required by a resistant varnish.
and are painted or vanished outside.
They are adapted for flour, sugar and
any dry substances, for kerosene, lard.
or any liquid, and kegs are made for
powder, and cans for other materials.
The vessels are said to be practically
i~ndestructible, cannot leak, are light and
easily handled,

DueIing in Florida.

The b~owie-knife was q favorite weapon
with the Floridians. Only "dead-
game" men could stand before this ter
rlble weapon. The usual method of
fighting with knives was to clasp the
left hands of the combatants together
and put very keen, bread knives in their
hands; the seconds then stood within
reach of the men, to interfere with q
pistol ball if either combatant violated
the rules of the fight. There were
many affairs with bowie-knives in the
ante-bellum days of Florida. One of
the NEST noted was a meeting between
Maj. Jim Jones and Col. Grinard. a
Frenchman. The bowie in this case
seems to have been a compromise be-
tween the sword of the Frenchman and
the pistol of the Floridian. The duel
was fought In 1852. 1t was very bloody,
both men being gashed fearfully, and
Jones was finally cut into slices across
his breast and killed outright. It is
said that this duel was remarkable for
having been fought in utter silence.
Though the knives slipped in and out
OF the bodies of each man neither said q
word. With their lips clenched and
their teeth set like O wise they fought in
silence. Not q sound came from the
mouth OF either, and when at last Jones
fell in death Grinard turned, and, wip-
ing the blood from his face, spoke for
the first time, addressing his second.

Marriage in the Celestial Empire.

Thirty pairs of embroidered slippers
are necessary for the trosseauof a Chinese
lady of position, and her boudoir is cram
med with confectionery, dried fruits,
burnt almonds, barley sugar, syrup of
aloes, oranges, ginger, and shaddocks,
in confusion with rich silks, Jewels of
wrought gold and precious stones, rings,
bracelets, cases of nails, bodkins for the
hair, and a thousand other charming
n~ick-nacks. In this strange country a
young girl when she marries never has a
dowry. She is literally purchased either
by the husband himself or by his rela-
tions. Although she may have no
brothers, she cannot inherit any portion
OF her p~aternal fortune unless her father
makes an express declarationin her favor.
Such arrangements are always completed
before the marriage, and are usually
negotiated by agents, called "Me jim"
The young fGnce is next presented to
her husbands parents. The husband
himself she never sees until the wedding
day. when she is carried in a closed chair
to the house. The key of the chair is
handed to the bridegroom, who opens
the door, and if the lady within pleases
his taste he holds out his hand to her; if
not, he slams the door, and the engage
ment is at an end, the girls parents hay
ing the right to retain the purchase
money.

Grand Army AnnIver,ary,

The fourteenth anniversary of the Grand
Army of the Republic was celebrated in Philadel-
phia last week. The principle topic under dis
cussion was the railroad monopoly. David
Ward, temporary Chairman: made a brief
speech, in which he alluded to the great
magnitude of the railroad interest in this coun-
try; their value is estimated at "a, 900, 600, 600
and they were controlled by a half a dozen
men. The danger of such a control was APP
parent to all. He urged the convention to
adopt resolutions in the form of 3 memorial to
Congress, asking for legislation, and the pas
sage of such laws as would place railroads under
the control of the Government. The delegates
present represented q constituency of half a
million, and could accomplish much by acting
In harmony. The Committee on Resolutions
reported a preamble and resolutions declaring
that the railroad system had become a virtual
monopoly, oppressive to the producer and con-
sumner, corrupting in politics. a hindrance te
free and impartial legislation, and a menace to
the safety of the Republic. To remedy this it
was demanded that railroads be placed under
control of the Government, that both political
parties will nominate men who will work for
the industrial classes, and that any man who
will not advocate their cause shall not be sup
ported.

A negro planter came to Vicksburg,
sold his cotton, put his money in his
pocketbook, and started down the river.
Leaning too far over the guards as the
boat backed out, he fell overheard. His
portemonnaie, which was in his side
pocket, foated out and rode with his hat
on the surface of the water, while the
current carried the negro away. The
yawl was lowered, and assistance at once
started towards the drowning man, who,
perceiving his treasure floating off, raised
his voice and shouted:
"Save dat pocketbook!"
His head went under and disappeared.
As he rose up again he gasped:
Oars $11S in dat pocketbook."
Scarcely had he uttered the words be-
fore he sank a second time.
The yawl came within reach just in
time to rescue the drowning African as
he came to the surface for the last time.
AS soon as the water was wiped from his
nose and mouth SO that he could see and
speak, he asked:
"Did-did you save dat pocketbook? ?"
"No," was the response.
"Well, den" said the negro, regret
fully, "what de debbil was de use OBJ

Tho Ute Nation I'm Jeopardy.

The outrage at Cline's Ranch, on the CHM
maron, in allowing q prisoner to fall into the
hands of the Indians to be butchered, when
there were four hundred troops encamped ct
the place, is without q parallel in history, and
has created the widest excitement in all the
frontier towns along the borders of the Rcser-
walton. Indignation meetings arc being held,
not only in the various towns, but also in every
mining camp, and the feeling upon the subject
is becoming 80 intense that it is liable to break
forth into a hostile demonstration that will an
initiate the the whole Ute nation. The conduct
of the Indian Agent at Los Pinos Agency, w.
II. Berry, in allowing such an outrageous crime
to be committed when he had q force of over
four hundred troops at his command, has Gre
ated a public sentiment that is liable to compel
hin to call on the military for protection.

State, in Ohio, 49, 4at
INDIANA.

That the Republicans have carried IndiaRa Is
now beyond all question an established fact.
Official and unofficial returns have been received
from eighty-five counties. These give Mr.. Por-
ter aggregate pluralities of 20, TAO, and Mr..
Landers 22,S60, a net Republican plurality Of
$3.50. The seven counties yet to hear from
HANCOCK, Noble, Perry, Upton, Ripley, Spen-
ser, and Union-gave a net Democratic major
ity in 1876 of 1856, so that Mr.. Porter's plural
ity would be 1898, If there should be no Repub-
hcan gains in the ~unreported counties.
The vote of the State in 1878 stood Demo
cratic, 194, TO; Republican, $50, $50 Green
Asck, 39,4l5. Democratic majority, AIS.
The contest in the Fifth Congressional District
Is very close, and it will require the official vote
to determine the result. The Republicans claim
It by a small majority, which would give the
Republicans nine Congressman to four Demo-
Gratis. The present delegation stands six Re-
2ublicans, six Democrats and one National.
From the most reliable returns received the
Legislature will stand as follows: Senators,
twenty-five Democrats and twenty-five Republi-
cans; House, forty-three Democrats and fifty-
,oint ballot.

A sIipperx India, Ars,.

Advices from Ouray, Col, state that the
Sheriff of Gunnison County, accompanied by a
Deputy United States Marshal, went to the
Agency and arrested Agent Berry for the out
rage at Clinics Ranch. The Agent requested
the Marshal to accompany him to the military
camp to procure an escort for protection, as he
was afraid that the people of Gunnison might
avenge the death of Jackson as soon as he
passed the line of the Reservation. The officer
remained all night in the military camp, he and
the Agent occupying the same bed. During the
night the Agent gave the officer the slip and
disappeared. The officer writes to Ouray that
ne will have the prisoner if it takes a year. Pas
sengers arriving by coach report Cline and the
Sheriff at Indian Greek, on their way to Gunni-
SON. The stage-driyer reports the employees at
the Agency badly frightened.

The Kentucky Method.

A dispatch from Williamstown, KY, says
At Knoxville, a small village seven miles east
of this place, Jim Neal shot and instantly killed
Jack Isaacs. The particulars of the tragedy
are as follows: Isaac and Neal had been bitter
enemies for some time past. Isaacs was accom-
panying Meals sister home from church when
met by Neal, who said: cd -n you, I'm
going to kill you" Isaacs made no reply to
this, except that he would see him later, and
proceeded with Meals sister to the house of a
friend, and, leaving her there, returnedto Neal,
and said to him: "You insulted me a while ago
when I was with your sister. I'm ready for
you now. You may kill me, but you can't scare
me-" and, grasping a club, struck Neal upon
the head, knocking him down. Neal drew mis-
revolver and fired twice quickly, the second shot
taking effect in his left temple, killing him in
stantly. Neal then turned to a brother of
Isaacs, who arrived just in time to see his
brother fall, and said: 81 have murdered your
brother; here, take this pistol and kill me,
too" This Isaacs refused to do, and removed
his brother to a house near by. Neal has not
been arrested as yet. Both men were regarded
as very brave, Isaaes being particularly reck-
Less.
