HOW WATCHES ARE MADE,

It will be apparent to any one, who will OK. anime SOLID GOLD WATCH, that asd, rom the necessary thickness for engraving and ponsning, large proportion of the precious Aetai used, Is needed not only to stiffen anl hoio the engraved portions in place, and sup ply the necessary solidity and strength The surplus gold is actually needless so far as urr, IrS and beauty are concerned In JAMIE, boSS PATENT GOLD WATCH CASES snis WASTE of precious metal is overcome, an tne SAME soLIpITY AND STRENGTH produced al rom one-third to one half of the usual cost ol sono cases. The process is of the most simpls nature, as follows: plate of nickle compost ton metal, especially adapted to the purpose, oas two plates of SOLID GOLD soldered one O., each side. The three are then passed between polished steel rollers, and the result is strit or heavy plated composition, from which tn, cases, backs, centres, bezels, &c., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The goj in these cases is sufficient to admit of al Kinds of chasing, engraving and enameling the engraved cases have been carried untl worn perfectly smooth by time and use without removing the gold.
 THIS IS THE ONLY CASE MADE WITH TWO PLATES SOLID GOLD AND WARRANT. ED BY SPECIAL CERTIFICATE.

In Russia.

Embezzlement in the official service of Russia is not severely punished. Mus charosch was chief of the Taganrog Custom House, and accused of compile ity in the misappropriation of some $2, FOG, 900 rubles. The statute of limi- tations, however, was successfully inter- posed as bar to his prosecution, and he was only removed to another post, being now chief of the Custom Department at Sebastopol. A year or so ago corrup- tion was exposed in the tax office at St. Petersburg, and embezzlements amount ing to millions of rubles were discovered. By special imperial decree, however, the investigations that were instituted in this case were suddenly discontinued, and the whole matter was quietly buried. The chief of the tax office happened to be a near relative of another official who enjoys the reputation of being very in- f1uential with the Czar.

 Stone in the Bladderis . very dangerous ail- ment; but many most remarkable cures have of late been wrought by "Kennedy's Favorite Reme- dy"-the invention oi Dr. Kennedy of Rom dout, N. Y. Another striking case is now added to the list. Mir. Peter Lswler, of Dalton, Mass, ptates in letter to Dr. Kennedy that he had been troubled with bladder complaint for If years, and had consulted at different times seven physi- eisns; but nothing beyond temporary alignment of the pain had been worked. Towards the end of last January Mir. Lawler called on Dr. Ken nedy. Sounding him, the doctor "struck stone. 3 He decided that Mir. Lawler should first try the "Favorite Remedy" so as, if possible, to avoid an operation. And here is the remarkable result: "Dear Doctor Kennedy-The day after came homs passed two gravel stones, and am doing nicely now. If you would like to see the stones will send them to you" This letter bears date Dalton, Mass, Feb. 6th," and is signed "Peter Lawier."

Frightful Crime Of Jealous Husband
He Cuts His Wife's Throat From
Ear to Ear,
Then Almost Sewers His Own Head From
His BOdy-A Sad Story OF Do.
nestle Infelicity.

ST. LOUIS, February S.-A most horrible
discovery was made 10 tenement house this
morning. 1t was found that Henry Drees, 4
German teSmsteT, had cut his wife's throat
with razor and tken his own. The two
corpses were discovered in the middle of
three rooms which the family occupied. The
body of the wife lay on the led, the cover
ing Of which was soaked with blood. The
man lay on The floor. Five little children
slept in the rooms, one in bed with the
couple. One of the children got light, took
the baby off the bloody bed in which Its
mother lay into his bed, changed its dress
and then went to sleep. The cause of the
tragedy is supposed TO be jealousy.
Drees and family lived in the rear oil
$500 Mullsnpy street. He was hard
working mau, and had accumulated $4,000
savings. He ill.rested his wife continually
and on one occasion she left him. Mrs
Drees was a good woman and gave her hus.
band no cause for his insane jealousy. Last
night the couple retired about 10 O'Clock
with the two little girls in one bed, two
boys in another and baby OF two years in
the same bed with themselves. Louis, the
eleven-yezr-old son, was the only witness o.
the tragedy. A noise aroused him, and bs
saw his father cutting his mother with {

had locked the door with last night, bu

O'Clock, when Otto Farenhorst, boy o
ten, called Louis to go to school with him
that the cordition of affairs presented them

a n,srAKEn rRorrc1IoNIsr,

The Knoxville Chronicle, in the innocency
OF its heart, undertook on Wednesday 10 tell
the APPEAL why there must be protection"
The APPEAL showed, the other day, how the
proieciionists, being deficient in proof, sup
ply the deficiency by repeating false asser-
tions until the unwary, by force Of repeti-
ton, are induced 10 believe that what they
hear 60 often must be true. The Chronicle is
one that has been thGs imposed upon, and
like faithful spout it honestly pours out
what has been rained upon the roof. Ac-
cording 10 the Chronicle, England is not a
free country, h as no free laws, is not inhabit-
, ed by a free people, wealth is not equally
distributed, and labor is not re-
spected. We have the honor 10 inform
the Chronicle thai England, according to the
latest and most Trustworthy travellers, is
free country, has free laws, and is inhabited
by free people. Wealth there, as in our
own country, is unequally distri buted; La
borers are respected there according TO their
worth, as they are here, and the wages are
not 90 "pauper" as to induce the mass OF the
working people in q condition TO afford to
emigrste to this country to do go. As our
contemporary falls into so many errors we
cannot undertake TO correct them, and when
corrected the argument offered loses point.
Finally, the Chronicle adjures the APPEAL
to tell its readers that ''free trade means
pauper labor in America, means the
destruction of the poor, the ruin OF our
manufactures, the impoverishment of our
farmers. the dealh.blow to our internal
towns and cities, and the degradation of our
country. As these horrors did not prevail in
our country when we were happily free from
the protective system, nor do corresponding
evils exist in countries thai enjoy the same
privileges, we cannot violate truth by telling
our readers any such thing. III the Chronicle
chooses, we can tell them that IL thinks so,
but we should dislike 10 say what would be
calculated to make the APPEAL readers feel
less respect for our esteemed contemporary
than we entertain ourselves.
