knowledge is Safety.

At meeting of the Iron and SteeA
Institute of Great Britain, held during
visit to the Glasgow Exhibition, Mr.
Adamson, replying to toast, said the
institute dealt purely with technical
matters. They now knew to hum
dredth per cent. what the metals they
dealt with contained, and they knew to
very small fraction of q ton what WelghS
these metals would carry in both diree-
tons. applause Gentlemen in Scot
land had had painful experience in the
lack of that knowledge when the lay
Bridge blew down. That bridge never
would have gone down if the author OF It
had been a member of the Iron and SteeA
Institute. (Applause.) Directly after
that bridge blew down, he (Mr. Adam
sony tested several fiat bars OF ordinary
quality, such as those of which the bridge
was constructed, and he found they were
made OF fairly good iron and carried y
tons per square inch longitudinally; But
when he applied the strain iaterally the
pressure they could endure never quite
reached eight tons. He fancied it was
from want of knowledge of the laws that
governed the strength of materials that
the tremendous and unfortunate caiam-
itV arose.

GEORGE WEIR.
A Life Prisoner who May Get a
Pardon.

A Life Prisoner who May Get q
Pardon.
COLUMBUS, o., March 17.-GOysrnor
Foraker is considering the case of George
Weir, a life prisoner at the Psnitentiary,
whose friends are working hard to secure a
pardon for him. At the last meeting Of
the Board Of Managers Of the Penitentiary
a resolution was adopted asking the Gov
ernor to pardon Weir, and il Is doubtful il,
after such intervention ia his behalf, Weir
remains long behind the brrs.
Weir's case is q sad and strange one. He
is we'll educated, aud has a fine mind. His
father, General Weir, wa o gallant officer
in the Union army during the late war,
and was one of the Oldest, wealthiest and
most respected citizens in Belmont county.
He had q violent temper, however, and his
constant RACES made home associations
unpleasant to the sons, who became wild
boys. George, the youngest was drawn
into q plan to rob a miser, who was re-
puted 10 be very wealthy and to
have treasures hidden about his bat near
st. ClairsVille. Only $50 was secured, but
the arch-plotter had Weir under this
thumb, and with constant threats Of expo
sure extorted from the boy all he could
raise. Finally matters came to . crisis
and The twoquarrelsd and fought George
shot and instantly killed the crook. He
claims il was in selfdeiense, and part OF
the Jury believed him, for on the trial
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1888-03-19

there was q disagreement, q part OF the
Jury being for acquittal and the rest favor
Ing n verdict Of manslaushter.
While George Wisr was waiting lor
another trial, as 10 the outcome OF when
there could be little doubt, public senh-
ment being almost unanimous for George,
his oldest brother, who had been 10 the
ar.sy and WAS Q fast man, killed their
father in a quarrel. In a flash all was
changed. The brother had lied, and
George, fearing the worst consequences,
asked to be allowed to plead murder III
the second degree. The plea was accepted
and he wa sentenced to the penitsntlary
for life.
His intelligence secured him a place IN
the library, Of which be had charge, ana
he has been one of the prison teachers ever
since the establishment there OF hignt
schools. He is now under the citizen
suDerinfsndent, chief of the school. A
sister lives in Washington, d. C., and on
his release he will be given employment
both honorable and lucrative. George,
who is only abont twenty-six years Old
has now served six years, and the feeling
ia universal that he has been punished
a.
more than enough for his youthful sin.
The elder brother led after the murder
of General Weir. and is still o fugitive
from Justice. He was once seen by Gen.
B. r Cowen, Clerk Of the United States
Court at Cincinnati, whose home "asonce
in st. C~lairsyille. Weir told the General
that he did no. murder his father. Iha
two, he said, quarreled, and the old man
in a frenzy, assaulted him. The son pusc,
ed him away and he fell, striking his head
against a piano. The fall killed him. Tbs
son fearing that he would be lSnched un-
der the circumstances, the arrest OF two
brothers for two murders being so unusual
that it would probably work up the quiet
citizens Of Belmont county into a fury
and knowing that his story would no'sos
believed, gathered together what money
there was in the house and ded.

A War Celebration.

A few days ago at Valparaiso there
was great celebration of Chili's triumph
over Peru. While the special reasons
for indulging in rejoicings on that sub
ject at the present time does not clearly
appear, there can be no question that
this enterprising republic may take just
pride in the prowers of her arms. With
Peru and Bolivia both against her, she
succeeded in inficting on the former
one of the most complete disasters, both
by land and sea, recorded in recent war
fare. She annihilated the really strong
navy of Peru, carried her victorious army
into Lima itself, broke the Peruvian
Army into fragments, until only few
fugitive guerrillas were left, and exacted
war indemnity, the cessation of terri
tory, and the control of the disputed nj
trate and guano districts as conditions
of peace. From the first she took the
aggressive and won victory after victory.
Chill has since shown good sense in cul-
tivating peace rather than keeping up
the war spirit. She long ago settled her
Patagonia dispute with the Argentine
Republic, and with no neighbors whom
she fears. ought now to be able to re-
main at peace for generations.

Our Grandmothers' Way.

A Washington correspondent says
The old-fashicned courtesy of our grand
mothers is being revived again, though
in modified form. At a recent recep-
tion at the White House fair young
girl was presented to the President. AS
he took her hand she ducked down about
six inches with a movement which
might be termed the lightning courtesy.
The same little bob was repeated mo-
ment later as she shook hands with Mrs.
Cleveland. Some of the bystanders ex-
claimed, How awfully country p but
were quickly subdued by an explanation
coming from one of the initiated. The
trick is the latest English custom on be-
ing presented to people of note. The
movement is difficult one, and if uni
versally adopted the fair society bellies
will find some difficulty in perfecting
themselves in the accomplishment, for,
unlike their grandmothers, the early
education Of the modern girl in that re-
spect has been neglected. Courtesies
and backboards we're long ago consigned
to oblivion as old-fashioned and out of
date. Now, together with the old spin
ming wheels, they are being brought to
light and favor once more.

Married by Strategy.

Some years ago, when free-love no
tions were running around loose in New
England, a Boston man and woman who
had imbibed Of those doctrines until they
affected to despise all the common con-
ventionalities of life, came to the conclu-
sion that they could live together with
out going through the ceremony OF
marriage. They both moved in good So
ciety and made no secret Of their
intention; in fact, they announced it to
every one they met.
Staid old Boston's aristocracy was
shaken to the depths at such an unheard-
of proceeding-apparently determined
upon in the best of faith. Relatives,
friends, and even chance acquaintances
tried all manner of reasoning and per
suasion upon the wayward couple, but
to no avail. The man and woman
quietly pursued the even tenor of
their way, not being in the least
alarmed when legal proceedings were
threatened by the woman's parents. So
q plan was patched up by some intimate
friends of the couple by which it was
hoped to circumvent them in their in
tention.
The man Was prevailed upon to give
dinner party, to which were invited
prominent society people, including the
Governor of the State. When dessert
was put upon the table the talk became
general, and soon turned upon the per-
verse couple. The man and womon an
swered every question put to them with
the most perfect equanimity. Finally
the Governor took hand in the CONVEX
sation. After asking few questions
and commenting on the answers thereto
in calm, judicial manner, he turned to
the man and asked:
''Do you, Mr.. -, intend to love and
cherish this woman as your wife, for
good or evil, for better or worse9''
''Yes, SIR" answered the man calmly.
'tAnd do you, madam, intend to obey
this man as your husband, for better or
worSS, for good or evil?"
IS Po, sir, answered the woman po-
g" len by the power invested in me
as { kernor of this commonwealth, /
decla / you to be man and wife"
And thus the plans of the couple were
frustrted, for which they afterward de-
oIared e., fy were heartily thankful.
