Canning Corn.

In the vicinity of Boston there are
numerous establishments devoted to the
canning of green corn, and, as the pro
cess is similar to that to which all arti-
cles of preserved food are subjected, a
description of the method will serve as
an example for the rest.
The corn is planted expressly for this
purpose, and when it is in condition to
can, it is stripped of its husks, after
which it is thoroughly wiped to remove
the silks. It is then passed along to an
other set of hands, who, with knives
made for this purpose, cut off the kernels
from the cob.
This work Is done over large wooden
hopper, there being generally four hands
at work at one machine, and the corn is
allowed to drop through into a tub.
When this is full, it is taken to another
room, where it is weighed out in small
quantities, each amount just sufficient to
fill a can, the corn being forced into the
can by means of powerful automatic
press, which operates very rapidly.
The cans are then taken to the solder
ing room, where each is carefully wiped
and the top soldered on, small hole
being made in the cover to allow the
escape Of air. The next step is the cook.
| ing, which is done by placing the cans in
wooden watts filed with water and kept
at the boiling point by steam heat
After being cooked while the cans are
taken out, the air holes newly opened
and they are subjected to thorough
shaking to force out the air, which oper
alton is most important.
| After this the corn is again cooked
| the cans sealed air tight, and they are
then ready for market. All articles are
treated in a similar manner, with the
exception of preparing them for the
cooking process, and when finished they
are partially imperishable, as they viii
keep for years in any climate.

Pins.

To the young lady whose intricate over
skirt is held in innumerable folds by
many pins, it may seem hardship that
her yearly allowance of pins is only about
140. Such, however, is the case with
each individual in the United States on
an equitable division of the pins yearly
sold in this country.
But the Indians in the West are not
supposed to use their full allowance, and
collar buttons have so far done away
with the use of pins by gentlemen gener-
ally that the young lady may perhaps
provide herself with some one else's al
1owance.
The pins made in the United States
are made by fourteen factories. Their
annual production for several years past
has been about 1000, 100000 pins. This
number has not varied much for some
years, the demand remaining about the
same. A few of these 1000, 600 are
swallowed by children, a number are
bent up in schools and placed in vacant
and inviting chairs, and some millions
get into cracks of floors, and the rest fol
most part are scattered along the bywayi
and highways, where they have dropped
from dresses and been left to work theiI
way into the earth.
The importations of English pins ar
small, and the expectation of pins from
the United States is confined to Cuba
South America and parts of Canada
where, however, but few pins are sent
England supplies almost the whole worlC
outside the United States.
The raw material-the brass and iroI
wire from which all American pins ar
made-is from the wire mills of thi
country, and much of the machinery

COVER THE RIVER"

Sudden Death Of John H. COwan, an Old
Citizen OF Fremont.
The sad news reached the city last
Thursday that John II. Cowan, an old
and much esteemed citizen of Fremont
township. died suddenly Wednesday at
his residence eight or ten miles north of
Emporia. Mr.. Cowan was taken VIC
lenily i'll that morning about 5 a.
IN. He suffered greatly. Toward noon
he got better and ate little dinner. AT
in the afternoon he was suddenly taken
worse and died at 8 80 p. m. 1t is sup.
posed that his disease was congestion ol
the brain. DR.. Biddle was called in the
morning and recalled ia the evening,
but arrived at the last call too late to
render any assistance. He was entirely
unconscious from the moment oil
the last attack until death ensued.
Mr.. Cowan came here in March, 1869
from Saliom, Washington county, New
York. and settled on the farm where he
died. For some years he had been &C
lively engaged in the stock business
He was esteemed highly by all who knew
him. He was more or less active in the
politics of the township and for the last
few years had acted with The Greeaback
party. He leaves q wife and ten chill
dren, four Of whom are grown. ana u
these the friends everywhere of him whc
was so suddenly taken from our midst

A SPLENDID SUCCESS
The Charity Ball Proves an Elegant AT
fair and Nets over Three Hun
dred Dollars.

The party which gathered at jays
opera house Friday evening to participate
in the charity ball, given under the au-
spices of the Ladies' Benevolent Society,
embraced many of the most prominent
citizens of the place, and both in point
of attendance and personnel was one of
the best We have ever seen assembled at
that place. The company was made up
of married and young people, both of
whom seemed to participate with equal
zest in the festivities of the occasion.
The great elegance of the toilets worn
by many of the ladies was matter of
general remark, and everything seemed
to conspire to promote the success of the
undertaking.
At about half past 8 o'clock the mem.
bers of the X. T. band took their posi-.
tions on the stage and favored the party
with q grand promenade concert which
proved delightful and suspicious in.
PRODUCTION to the dance which followed.
The program included number of spIr.
tied selections, rendered in the most ad.
mirable style under the direction of the
leader, Mr.. Egan, and the observation
was Yentured on all sides that the new
band was very fast attaining to the ex-
cellent standard of the old organization
The string music was furnished by the
Holmes orchestra, and with Mr.. Marden,
as prompter, the incentive to dance was
sufficiently strong to keep the floor well
filled until midnight, when the party be-
gan TO disperse, after having enjoyed a
thoroughly pleasant evening.
The gross proceeds were 1868. and as
Mr.. Jay very generously donated his
opera house, and there will be no ex.
pense aside from the music and programs
the result of the undertaking will be t.
reinforce the treasury of the Ladies Be
nevolent society to the extent of over
$500. In their behalf we extend 10 the
citizens who so cheerfully aided the en-
terprise the heartfelt thanks of the la
dies, and we feel warranted in saying
that the best possible use will be made
of the funds which will be given into
their hands.

When NIarksmen Miss.
IAN The Year Around.l

It is well-known fact that the best
marksman's aim is often unsteady when
he has an animated target opposite him.
One of these "crack' shots was showing
off his skill before numerous company,
and the ground was soon strewed with
the remnants of the plaster figures he
had successfully brought down.
All present were in raptures except
one spectator standing apart from the
rest, who after each shot observed, in a
perfectly audible tone, "He would not do
as much if he had man facing him."
This remark, several times repeated, at
last so exasperated the performer that he
turned toward the speaker, and inquired
if he would be the man to face him?
Certainly" was the reply, 'tand what is
more, you may have the first shot"
As every one was curious to witness
the result Of this singular duel, the whole
party adjourned to the Bots de Vincen-
mes, and, the word having been given,

missed. His adversary shrugged his
shoulders, and fired in the air. "What
did I tell yours he said, and walked

Confidence Men Getting in Their Work
in EmpOrfa.

in EmpOria-
For some DAYS past a gang Of conf
dence men, supposed TO be from Kansas
City, have been plying their vocation in
Emporia, and have succeeded in roping
in several suckers for greater or less
sums, by. the practice of those tricks
known TO this class of professionals
Their favorite field of operations is al
the junction of the Santa Fc and Mis-
souri, Pacific, where they "lay" for trav-
elers who change cars at that point.
Monday a young man who had
stopped over TO take the next train on
the Missouri Pacific was fleeced out of
SO by what is known as the tobacco
box racket, the scheme being to induce
the victim of the game to put up speci-
fed sum Of money that he can open a
tobacco box, which is furnished with a
secret spring that yields only in the
hands of an accomplice 10 the swIndle.
Another verdant traveller who had
disembarked at the Missouri Pacific de,
pot for the purpose of taking the west
bound O'Clock train, on the Santa Fe
was approached by one of these
steeIers who offered to assist him with
his trunk down TO the junction. The
proposition was accepted, and after pro
ceeding u short distance, the confidence
man proposed that they should rest
They sat down and in a few moment!
the pal of the sharper came along whom
the former asked for a chew of tobacco
and the box being brought out, the un

was just in the act of putting up wage
of $4,000 that he could open it, wheI

We learn that another man was takel

in the habit of walking out to the waite
