Burned in Melted Lead.

The establishment of the St.. LOUIS
Smelling and Refining Company, in st.
Louis, was destroyed by fire, and John
Williams was caught in a stream of molten
metal and literally burned by inches. The
fire was caused by the bursting Of u cupola
OF one of the furnaces, in which about
twenty-five tons Of lead was being smclletl
for letining. Williams, the engineer, was
standing at the door OF the engine room.
He started to get his coat and dinner
bucket. The molten lead, which was run
ming Oh the ground in every direction, had
~.,."-i .h;" .,""t of tho h,,ilhinp and 81
narrow stream had made its way directly
across the path between Williams and the
place where his coat was hanging. AS he
went forward he gave little leap, expect
ing to clear the stream, but tripped over
Failing, he dropped partly into the Kissing
pool that had began to widen and spread
out. Just at this point two men near by
saw the cngincer's distress, and started to
pull him out of the puddle. He, however,
succeeded in picking himself up without
giving the metal a chance to burn him
seriously. lie even went and got his coat,
and was returning TO cross the lcadcn
Hood at narrow point, when second in
tcrruptlon came along from different di-
rcction and caught him. This time il was
impossible for him TO escape. The two
men tried to reach him, but the consuming
mass was covering the whole floor, run
ming small channels in every direction, so
that the nicn could not get near the strug-
Cling engineer. lie was seen to fall, and,
all efforts to rescue him having failed, tac
building burned over and about him, and
tho ruins fell upon him.

Launching a Ship.

Not one-half the people who witness the
launching OF a vessel can tell how it is
done. They hear u great sound of pound
ing and driving of wedges for half an hour
or So, then loud shout is raised, and the
ship starts slowly at first, but, gradually
increasing her speed. slides with Il steady,
stately motion from off the pile Of timber
ana blocks where She has been standing
Tor months; and where, but a moment be-
lore, tho huge creature lowered aloft, moth
ing remains but debris of timber and
planKs, while out on the water floats one Of
the most graceful works of man.
When tho ship is about ready to launch.
her immense weight rests principally upon
blocks some eight or ten inches square on
the ends, and perhaps some fifteen or
eighteen inches in length. These blocks
are placed directly under the keel, and IN
order to launch the vessel it is necessary 10
transfer tho weight Of tho vessel to the
ways,-two long lines of heavy timber
reaching about two-thrds the length of
the vessel on either side, and about md
way the blgc Or bottom. These ways are
simply two lengths of timber with thick
layer OF grease between them, 80 that as
soon as the ship acquires any momentum
they will slip one along the other TO
transfer the weight Of the vessel on to these
ways so that gravity-thc stem or heaviest
part OF the vessel being much lower than
the bow-wil cause her to move, IS the
whole secret of launching. TO do this
between the top of the ways and tho vessel
arc driven pine wedges, which, of course,
raise her somewhat, and so relieve the
blocks under the keel of part of the weight
resting upon them. This done, workmen
take their places under the vessel, and with
iron wedges cut and knock away the
blocks. When these are removed, the en-
tire weight of the vessel settles at once
upon the creased ways, and the result is
exactly the same as would be if a person
should scat himself upon u sled pointing
downhill upon an icy slopc-away she
goes
There seems to be strange sort of fas-
cination for Most. people in the launching
OF large vessel, and in our ship building
ports it is mot uncommon for u Thousand
persons to be present to enjoy the specta-
Anac, ican MontALy.

The Horse That "Died of Grief"

One of The San Francisco papers having
published an account Of the death of n
horse from grief at losing his master, the
Chronicle sent reporter to verify the state

the following result:
Yes, sir, that thar were the curiostcst

This ended the discussion for the day,
which was followed with interest by a large
audience in the galleries.
Pendleton declared the republicans We're
warning, not on outrage, fraud, intimidation or
oppression, but on the democratic party,
which was the party of Jefferson, of Madison,
of Monroe and of Polk, the party that had
given Texas, New Mexico and California TO
the Union. 1t was the party which had long
ago made the constitution, and for sixty years
had SO administered, that in the government
there had been no law higher than the con-
stitution. 1t was the party which III the
cycle of it's years, had drawn to itself every
able and patriotic statesman who was not
. willing to walk in the wicked ways of Sec
tionalism. II was the party which, in storms,
and tempests aud winters blasts, has stood
like an ocean lighthouse, unmoved and inn
movable, while all other parties, including
the boosted republican party, had swaycd
and swayed, with uneven and inconsistent
motion, like waves that obeyed the ttful Did

You forget what the senate is. You forget

The colloquy between Dawes. Butler,
Harris, Brett and others, as to the assertion
by Dawes that Malone had been approached
by the democrats, was spirited, and at times
very personal. Both sides disclaim that any
offer had been made to Mahone.
A motion was made by Farley to go into
executive session lost, 20 to 20.
