The old virginians were singular city
builders. All cities of the earth, except
the two theocracies Of Jerusalem and Salt
Lake city, as n rule. took root at some
port. But these cavaliers" never seem to
have cared for boat or anything but their
horses to carry them. And so we find
Jefferson and Monroe away out here 100
miles from the nearest port. And to this
day these people literally live on horse
back. You can not get an old Virginian
to take the cars II the contemplated jour
ney can possibly be made on horseback.
And so II is that at all the towns you pass
by you see horses hitched to the racks
up and down the long struggling streets.
Sometimes YOU see two dozen horses,
sometimes ten, sometimes six, sometimes
only a very few. 1t depends on the size
and dignity OF the town. Sometimes you
see only one horse. And so that il n

the expression "A one-horse ."-Joa-

Ono OF the most remarkable men In the
British parliament Is Joseph Arch. Fiji
teen years ago Arch was a common farm
laborer, supporting himself n family on
~ a week. His wife could read and write
when he married her, and she taught him
all she knew. After learning to read,
Arch spent his nights In reading every
thing he could get hold of. He began or
ganizing labor unions among the farmers
aud speaking to them. This made him
disliked by the landlords, and II was a
difficult matter for him TO get work.
Last summer the new franchise bill
made voters OF 10000 tenant farmers, and
Arch for the first time found himself a
freeman. With plucky %audacity. this
newly-emancipated serf stood for parlia-
ment, and was elected over the great Tory
magnate, Lord Henry Bentinck.-New

when he told his friends OF his offer they
urged him to refuse 1t and stay on the
canal. He resisted their opportunities,
but finally, taking a big red copper in his
fingers, said: Boys, / will let the fates de
eide. Head is Altoona and tails Is Column
bia.' He then threw the copper into the
air with a twist which sent 1t into a dozen
s~omersaults, but 1t fell and the mead was
uppermost. The boys then said that one

this and threw twice more. His next
throw was heads and so the railroad won.

HOW BRICKS ARE A
h Latest Utilization of waste-soi'i
vItreons Tiles and Brick.

hitftous liirn anu bTith-
This is the age OF saving. "By-prod
ucts" has become a commercial term. II
means the materials resulting from man
ufactures and commonly called waste or
useless matter. The latest utilization Of
waste is in the manufacture OF plate and
mirror glass. Mirrors OF plate glass have
to be polished, and this mean the grind
ing away OF the surface Of the plates Of
glass. The work Is done in machines
that rub the glass with heavy wooden
rubbers inclosed in iron frames. These
rubbers are kept wet, and between the
glass and rubbers is placed fine, sharp
quartz-sand. The glass is quickly worn
down by the cutting action OF the sand,
and the sand itself is reduced to a fine
powder.
The water sweeps away the minute par
ticles OF glass and and as a Shiny mud, a
by-product, until recently considered to
be utterly valueless. This mud contains
in the form Of fine powder about 10 per
cent OF glass and about 2 per cent OF iron
dust from the rubbers. The rest is sand
and water. The glass plates after this
process are still duh and have TO se pol
ished again with fine emory and rouge.
This waste mud was usually stacked up
in great heaps anywhere TO get rid OF 1t.
The new plan is to dry the mud, knead it
to cause the glass to be well mixed with
the sand and to mold it under great pres
sure into bricks. tiles and building stones.
These tiles and bricks are then placed in n
kiln, and fired till the glass melts and
binds the sand into solid vitreous blocks.
The iron in the sand Is also reduced,
and II there are other materials In the
mass, they readily combine with the silica
OF the sand. Clay and kaolin have also
been added to make fire-bricks, etc. The
tiles and bricks are said to be light. strong
and OF good color, and have already found
many uses in the arts.-Demorest's
