producing titles and authors names IN alphabetical

Augustin DAILY is about to take his company

The largest pumping engine in the world is used
TO pump water in Pennsvlvana. In one minute
it forces 20 900 gallons OF water out of a mine to
height OF 30 feet. This is certainly efficient en-
gne, but without detractlng from its merits in the
least il can be asserted without fear OF contradc-
ton that a representative American interviewer at
his best can break the record for pumping.

The case Of George II. Sterling, liquor seller,
whom the Governor nominated to succeed Mr..
Leaycraft as port warden, has long been con-
sidered test case in the politics OF Civil Ser

sons his party friends desired to put him in it.
There was no chance to stradde. 70 oppose

the Republicans against him, and he stays out.

The Union League CLUB was clearly within
its limits In the resolutions which its members
adopted at their meeting last night, touching
the labor question. Primarily the club was or
ganized to aintaln the supremacy of law over
rebellion; and the necessity of maintaining
law and order to-day over the plotting and
riOtng of Socialists and Anarchists is as plain
as was the similar duty some twenty five
years ago. 1t was the sense of the club that
the right of organization in the trades and the
night to strike were just; but the boycott was
injurious and should be put down along with
the Anarchists. In these sentiments and in
appreciation of the work of the police and the
courts in suppresslng recent disorders, all
honest New Workers heartily join.
