pioneers. alluded to the establishment of
other churches i'll the territory and spoke
of his own first charge at Evanston and
his connection there with the Shoshone
Indians. He spoke of the first visit of
Bishop O'Gorman to the territory, and
said there were 5000 Catholics in Wyom-
ing, six churches, and church property
valued at $4,000. Father Nugent closed
a well digested paper with a few compli-
mentary remarks regarding the liberal
policy of other denominations towards the
the church he represented.
A really brilliant paper was hat of
Rev. f. s.. Chapman, pastor of the Pres
byterian church, on the subject
of THE Presidential Succession.
DR.. Chapman spoke of the
fact that he had studied law in his younger
days, and had hen interested himself in
politics, and that a little diversion occasion
ally, from purely theological topics, was
not unpleasant to men of his cloth. He
first spoke of the needlessness of Vice
Presidents of the United States. History
showed what opposition the establishment
of that office met with from the trainers of
the constitution. He quoted some of the
debates to prove this. and ventilated
many of the not generally known facts re-
garding the original occupation of the
office, The first objection was that the
Office brought the executive and Legislative
branches into too close relations. Elbridge
Gerry said that the President and Vice
President being so closely associated

lead Pencil Manufacture.

The N. Y. Sun prints the following
interview in regard to making lead
pencil.
''What does it cost to make lead
pencil?" said the manufacturers First
let me tell you how we make pencil.
See this small black powder? That's
graphite. 1t costs % cents pound.
This white substance is German clay.
1t comes across the ocean as ballast in
sailing vessels, and all it costs us is
freight. We mix this clay and this
powder together and grind them in a
mill, allowing moisture to be added dur
ing the process until the two are thor
oughsy assimilated and are reduced to
paste about the consistency of putty.
This paste we press into these dies,
each one of which is the size of pencil
lead, except in length, There are four
leads in one of these. After they are
pressed we cut them into the proper
length and bake them in an oven kept
at a very high heat. There we have
the lead made. lis hardness is regu-
lated by the greater or less amount of
clay we mix with the graphite the
more clay we put in the harder the lead
'The cedar we use comes principally
from the swamps of Florida. and it is
obtained entirely from the fallen trees
that lie there. The wood is delivered
to us in blocks sawed to pencil lengths.
some thick, to receive the lead, and
others thin, for the peice that is glued
over the lead The blocks are sawed
for four pencils each, They are grooyed
by a saw, the groove being the place
where the lead is to lie.
1.-The leads are kept in hot glue, and
are placed in the grooves as the blocks
are ready. When that is done the thin
block is glued fast to the thick one
When dry the blocks are run through
machine that cuts the pencils apart
Then they are run through machine
that shapes and Furnishes them, and
they are ready to be tied in punches,
boxed, and put out.
1.-The different grades in value are
made by finer manipulations of the
graphite. Here is pencil that is about
the quality used in everyday business
1t costs little more than ! of cent to
get it ready for market. We sell it to
dealers for 100 per cent. profit, and the
dealer makes much more than that. OF
this grade an operator and the machin-
cry will easily make $500 a day.
There is pencil in that case. It's
a cheap looking thing, isn't it? Don't
look worth more than cent does it?
Well it would take so bill to buy that
"The cedar that surrounds the lead
in that pencil was centuries old, guess,
before any cedar that is standing to-
day began to grow. 1t was taken
from mari bed in Orange county, New
York, at depth of sixty feet, and near
it was found mastodens remains.
That bone knob on the end of the pencil
was a peice of that mastodens tooth
No | don't think so would buy that
pencil"

trounced for his impertinence. BiIl

been heard from, which was of no oreat
moment, as Sam took his place.
Mother Martha held her own with M
signs of failing. With tireless emerge
she dashed and blistered everybody with
her tongue, and although she had gone
no farther, and usually quailed before
jim, she was a great thorne IN the flesh
OF those about her.
shall not forget how one EVENING
after Storm had been on horseback ali
day and was weary in body and mind
she asked permission to retire to her
bed without doing her usual evenings
work about the house. Her reonest
raised storm from every quarter.
mo, you won't 60 to bed,'' screamed
Martha. You lazy huzzy. Won do
nothing but eat and sleep. You must
be near twenty years old, and you amt
goln to play lady around my house.
DO you hear, Fanny Dane?n and Martha
waved the heavy wet dishcloth in the
air and struck Storm a singing blow
fair on the cheek. The girls under lin
trembled and she swallowed sometime
in her throat, but she said nothing.
You go to bed?'' Jim Numbered
No; don't let me ketch you in bed.
Cuss your lazy pelt beggars can't
choose, and you're a beggar. | took
you, and you're an impudent pup and a
beggar be9gar! BEGGAR y
The sun was setting when Storm
rushed from the house. Across the
swelling prairie she ran, until, beside
the public road, on grassy, fiowery
plot, she threw herself down. She tore
up handfulls of grass In her frenzy, and
fairly screamed
''Jim Dane-Martha Dane-all Won
Danes, hate you-I hate you [
could kill you all l could cut YOU up
III pieces! O, | wish | could die"
Then she laid her pretty face in the
grass, and the setting sun fell on her
beautiful neck and hair. and her hot
tears bathed nest of bright little
buttercups that nestled against her
cheek and seemed to whisper-"Poor
little Storm ! we love you"
Footsteps sounded down the road and
when they came to where Storm Law
they stopped. She did not raise her
head. Sobs of grief convulsed her
body A man stood over the CRYING
girl.

Cartoons In Advertising.

From the N. Y Evening Post we learn,
few people who pass through the
streets of New York have failed to no.
tce the new style of advertising adopted
by many cigar dealers and other trades
men by means OF small bill boards
bearing sketches in color. either repre-
senting the nature of the business or
making suggestions to intending pur-
chasers and passers-by. Most of these
placards are illustrated with hits on po-
litical or social questions which are the
subjects of general discussion in society,
and many of them are cleverly done.
To any one who has studied these signs
closely as it is the province of q re-
porter to study everything he sees
about the streets. it is evident that most
of them are the work of one man. De-
sirous of learning something of the his
tory of this new industry reporter of
the Evening Post day or two ago Wis
tied a man whose studio is in Temp
kins square. Said he: ''In making these
show cards for tradesmen | draw my
own designs getting my suggestions of
current topics from the newspapers.
.In making these designs | adapt
them to the locality where they are to be
used. For my Brooklyn customers |
touch on some topic of newspaper dis
cussion in that city and one of my Gus
toners on Fulton street New York, has
one bulletin made especially TO catch
the eyes of the people rs they are going

ply announce the business carried on by

not as elaborate, and are usually Of a
| come nature.

water colors, as crayon colors would
soon become blurred and indistinct. |

As St Valentines day approaches have
many applicants who wish to have spe-
cial designs painted to send to some ac-
anaintance as valentines. No | do not
have any such calls from sentimental
lovers: these demands are usually from
men who wish to hit of the idjosyncra-
sizes of some friend and cannot find any
thing exactly suitable among the comic
valentines. / have just completed q

the wage slave and the chattel slave,
which will be exhibited in the labor pro

How Watch Cases Gro Made.

Most persons have an ambition to carry
gold watch case and yet few people know
how watch case is made, or the vast diff
ference in Inequality of them. Ina SoLIp
GoLD WATCH CASE, aside from the necss-
sary thickness for engraving and polishing,
a large proportion Of the metal is needed
only to stitlen and hold the engraved por-
tions in place, and supply strength The
surplus is not only needless, but undcsira-
BILE, because gold is soft metal and cannot
furnish the stiffness, strength and elasticity
necessary to make the case permanently
strong and close-ftting. The perfect watch
case must combine gold with some metal
that will supply that in which the cold is
deficient. This has been accomplished ~
the James Boss Gold Watch Case ~ 49,.
which saves the WASTE Of need : )
less gold, and INCREASES the so1lDIrY and
STRENGTH Of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.
