The Good Work the Good Women OF
Dallas Propose to DO.
A HERALD reporter visited the
Woman's Home yesterday, on the
corner of Young and Jefferson streets.
There was not much to see. They
had not progressed as fast as they had
hoped TO- The property they pur-
chased " as I, very v.d frame building
and required good deal of
repairing. 1t had to be rcplastercd, at
least a portion of it. There was q
good deal of carpenter work to be
donc-s world Of cleaning and scour-
ing to be done all over the building,
and this work has been going on. The
lower rooms have beenfinishcd, while
the upper rooms remain unfinished.
1t has been slow work because it has
been done mostly by donations. SO far
as they have gone the old house Is
much improved, and begins
to look cheerful and COM
Portable. The work these ladies have
undertaken to do is one of more mag
nitude than the public can imagine,
and. we opinc, Il little bigger than the
ladies themselves believed it would be;
still, they are not weary in we'll doing,
and propose TO make success OF It,
The reporter could sec, however, that
the public did not appreciate this char
liable enterprise commensurate with
its Importance, for the donations and
subscriptions were too email, and those
who manifested their interest by SUBJ
scribing were too few. The ladies can
not make the Woman's Home sue

This we arc saying wholly unauthor'
.zed. but say it because we did not sec
evidences of that liberal patronage
that characterizes a plcthoric purse
a. Id on our own responsibility we
urge the people Of Dallas to aid these
noble women in their chart
table work. They need more
donations of furniture, and every
thing else to make house and home
comfortable: they need subscribers,
even more than donations; there are
not enough subscribers to sustain the
institution as it should be. 1t only
costs so cents month to subscriber.
and it seems to the HERALD that there
ought to be at least 800 people in Dali
las who wonld give so cents month
to maintain this institution. Where
is the man who would refuse to
give so cents month to aid and re-

there is no city of lis size in the Union
better supplied with churches than
Wilmington, a large amount of busi-
ness is looked forwrrd to in this depart
ment.
Another very important field of oper-
alton, as yet untouched in this city, is
the supply of electric motors for all
kinds Of light work, and the possibili-
ties in this direction may be appreciated
when it is considered that stations have
been built and equipped for the supply
of power only. Watchmakers and jew
ellers, and all who use lathes, will have
at their doors a clean, convenient and
easily applied source Of power. In a
manufacturing centre like Wilmington,
there are Thousand and one cases in
which small power IL wanted, without
the trouble and exps.use of put ing in
steam or gas engine. Again, there are
very few families who do not possess a
sewing machine, and this will be un by

Unfortunate Salisbury was al to
have Central Station, and the ar
rangements were almost completed pr or

The electric light is anywhere
spreading rapidly and everything tends
to show that the next generation will
use nothing but electricity for illumi
mating purposes, gas'being employed for
cooking and heating, and in manufac-
turing operations.
Without doubt the name of Thomas
Alva Edison will be handed down to fu-
ture generations as the name of one who
laid hold of one of the forces Of nature
and made it subseryient to the wants
and requirements Of mankind, even as
Stephenson and Fulton applied steam
to locomotion and navigation.

The Temperancd1 Reform canvass
shows up butter each day all over the
State.
Millsboro will be alive with enthusi-
astic voters and eloquent speakers this
afternoon at a Temperance Reform
rally to be held there. A big meeting
has been arranged for Laurel tonight.
Beginning on Monday morning, the
headquarters of the Temperance Re-
form party, No. 22O and 222 Market
street, will be kept open day and night
in charge of person competent to
answer questions in regard to qualIti-
cation of voters and to give general in
formation about the campaign.
On Monday night, November 1, the
first of the series of three lectures at
the Opera House under the auspices of
the Women's Christian Temperance
Union, will be given by Henry Ragan;
it will be an illustrated description of
"Paris, the Magnificent. The other
two, by General Lew Wallace, and JUS
tin Mccarthy, NJ. p, will follow in the
next five or six weeks. Tickets for the
course will cost but $1.25, a cheap
means of hearing eminent men on valu-
able subjects.
George w. Balm, of Lexington, KY,
will speak for temperance in this city
as follows: Friday night next, at In
stitute Hall, on ''The Golden Gate, or
The Age and Land in which we Live;"
Saturday night, Hanover Presbyterian
Church, on ''Boys and Girls, Nice and
Naughty, or The Pendulum of Life !"
Sunday afternoon, at the Opera House,
on "Our Country, Our Homes and Our
Duty" plea for the American home,
against the saloon. The last meeting
will be free, but twenty-five cents ad-
mission will be charged to the first two,
which is a low price, considering the
orator who will he heard. The follow
ing criticism is sample of many
George w. Balm gave his lecture, ga
Journey to the Golden Gate, +" last eve
ming. Any attempt to describe his
wonderful lecture would be useless. In
humor it is better than Mark Twain in
oratory it equals Wendell Phillips, and
in poetic description surpasses anything
we ever listened to. The large audi
ence went away sorry for all who did
not hear it.-Lincoll (IU.) Daily Sen

OF ARLINGTON MILLS.
Where Labor is Contented, and
Everything is Conducted in
an Admirable Manner.

I
establishments than 0 the Arlington
Mills, in the Ninth ward 1t is a verit-
able hive of industry. The fire of Feb
ruary last, which destroyed buildi g
50x120 feet, and its contents, seemed to
revivify rather than retard the spirit of
of the owners, Woodward, Baldwin &
90. Not only is the burned structure
restored, but new machinery and sys-
tenn are being introduced in all the
apartments, and there is an entire
change for the better. Soon after the
fire mentioned, George Hillsley, over
seer of one of the rooms, was made
superintendent of the concern, succeed
ing Melville Gambrill. and his liberal
ity Of ideas has worked wonders. A
year ago, most of the females employed
could make but three or four dollars
per week they now realize nearly twice
that amount, and there is nowhere to be
found a more contented set Of employees
than is to found there. Five hun
dred men and boys. women and girls
constitute the force, which will soon be
increased ten per cent. John Greer,
agent for the owners, is man well cal.
culated to elevate the workings of the
mills in every way.
Inc buildings and ground cover more
than two-thirds OF the square bounded
Dy Iwenty-trst an Twenty-second'
Market and LaMotte streets. Beside
tne new building referred to, there is a
main structure 100 t ct long, with
wings at each end 200 feet in length,
the three being 10 feet wide each.
Ihere are several smaller buildings
used in manufacturing, beside the dye'
boiler and engine houses, and stable
for eight horses. five of which are used
at present. Five hundred and nine
looms will be used this winter, with
about 10000 spindes. SiXty-three bales
of cotton will be consumed per week,
producing 24,O9O pounds of yarn, made
into 690S5 yards of ginghams, seer
sucker and pantaloon cloth. Although
so capacious, many of the hands will
have to work at night, they are now
doing, because the orders exceed the
day production.
There is no meanness displayed in
considering the comfort of the workers.
A 350-horse power engine is used to
supply the force necessary for an i'm
mense dynams, by which Brush electric
lights of 1900 candle power each aid
the night workers and to drive the ma
chinery used. Four Babcock Il Wilcox
boilers are in this connection and the
rooms lighted are as bright as during
the day, the whole establishment is be-
ing brought to state of completeness
not often seen. There are machine,
carpente and blacksmith shops for in
cidental work.
The process of production is gone
through with the best machinery, and
although not altogether new is worth
study ng. 1t is pre- ty much the same
in making the different kinds of cloth,
and begins at the raw cotton taken
from the bales in the picker room.
This is put into machines and drawn
out as wide laps, which are wound like
huge rolls of carpet. These rolls 60
into the carding room, and pass through
a seriess of four or five machines. heinp

s'TiDs."

A waiter al Cape May writes to the
long ago in one CT orr Philadelphia
papers an article aboat guests giving
extra money TO hotel walters. This ar
ticle goes Oh to say that paying extra TO
walters causes those guests who do not
reward their walters 20 receive inatten-
ticn from tic said walters. Now, sir, l
an waiter at the United States Hotel,
and feel il my duty to refute all false
charges made against walters. There
is no compuls;on on the part of any
guest to pay bis waiter extra. Nor will
waiter ask for such. But those who
have been guests at 4 hotel, either in
the city or at the summer resorts, know
how hard tie waiter works 10 please
them. OF COURSE he is paid by the hotel
to bring your food and set your table
But desiring TO please you to the utmost
he purchases flowers, etc, which are
not supplied by the hotel, but which he
pays for. The consequences of which
are that his table presents a very
pleasing appearance and a fragrant
odor-for who does not love fowers?-
and some considerate person, know
ing that the waiter is only human and
not 4 pack-saddlc or steam engine and
seeing that he strives TO make them
happy, endeavors to return the compli-
ment make the waiter happy by giving
him some token for encouragement, and
by SO doing is made doubly happy HIM
self. But some one else, who does not
reward his waiter (at the same table,.
does not feel happy, ike his benevolent
neighbcr, because ne has not given en-
couragement to his waiter. But being
jealous of the happiness of his neighbor,
he makes excuse for his ill-feeling by
saying his waiter is partial and pays
more attention to the rest than to him.
And such Il man must the writer of
that article be. Who can see o waiter
toiling for their comfort and view the
care with which he sets his table and
his endeavors to capse his people to be
cheerful and then say he is paItial?'
