fore dusk yesterday evening, when he in
formed his father of what he had seen.

The Test 1t Was Recently Put To.
In the Age of Steel Mr. Philip Henry
Moore thu, Getsils a most interesting test
with Riverside steel skelp:

to the rapid and advantageous displace,
men, of iron by steel, az the better msterls!
from which to manufacture special forms
az we'll as standard productions. Following
no this l;ns of facts VAS shown day or
two ago some specimens OF wrought pipe
made out of Riverside stesl skelp. The
samples acted on were Pinch pipe,
and they were bent and curved into the
shape of the figure without the slightest
Jaw appearing in the weld. This is
crucial test and Mr.. Frank Hesrne, the
General manager, told me that be had
them subjected to the further test OF the
steam hammer and only after repeated
blows fractures appeared in the solid body
of the pipe, the YIELDS remaining intact
The pieces tested we're Of both butt welded
and lap welded pipe. This is another i'm
oortant innovation, and this time Wheel
ing claims first blood She is coming to
the front bravely aud her claims are attract
ing widely extended interest. Pittsbqrg
uneuualed and universally conceded ad'
vantages have made her preeminent, but
had they been suffered to remain unde-
yeloped and unheralded she would hsve
never achieved her present distinction.
There is not O scintills Of difference be-
tween Pittsburg's present and prospective
advantages and those which Wheeling is de-
velopiDg and will have in full function by the
lst OF September next. The necessary en-
terprise has also been in existence, but it
was lstent-it needed but the spark of pro
gress to vivify it and enkindle it; that
spark has struck and Wheeling is actively
preparing TO share Pittsburghs supremacy
and herald her distinctive claims 10 the
world, and she will get there; but she
must not lsg-thers is no time like the
present. for it is to the alert and vigilan'
the cream is generally awarded.

MUSICAL NOTES.

As uaual, Mr.. W. 8 Gilbert now denies
the truth Of all the srtfully concocted sio'
ries about the plot Of the forthcoming Gil
bert and Sullivan opera. He IL now quoted
with saying that lit is on an Engiish sub
ject, date about 1910, that period having
been chosenssfor one reason, because the
costumes of the early years OF the century
have never been correctly placed on the
stage, ss they will be now. There is a
strong supernatural element in the piece,
and the characters may be described as
qussi.melo-dramatic.
