AN UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT.

Another case of attempted lynching was
witnessed this evening near Kernville.-
The man was observed stealing valuable
articles from the houses. He was seized
by mob, a rope was placed around his
neck and he was jerked up into the air.
The rope was tied to the tree and his
would-be lynchers left him. Bystanders
cut him down before he was dead. The
other men did not interfere and he was al
lowed to 60. The man was SO badly
scared that he could not give his name if hs
wanted to do so.
1 have just, at seven P. NJ, received the
following despatch from Johnstown -
1.-Two colored men were shot while rob-
bing the dead bodies, by the Pittsburg po-
lice, who are doing guard about the town."

A CURIOUS lNeIDENT.-From Richmond
county, North Carolina, a curious incident
is reported. Mrs. Baxter Oliver had been
quite ill for several weeks, and Sunday
morning when she awoke she told her hus-
band that while she was asleep she dream
ed that she died, and that in eternity she
met face to face Mrs. Troxler, an intimate
neighbor, who lived only two miles away.
Mrs. Troxler was not known to be ill, but
the sick lady seemed much impressed with
her dream and declared her belief that it
would be realized in short time. She
seemed perfectly rational and her condition
was not regarded as critical. Monday she
was suddenly taken worse and before noon
was dead. In tho eYering word was re-
ceived saying that Mrs. Troxler, her neigh
Dor, had died at 10 O'Clock, after two hours
illnsss

Casting Plate.Glass.

From Popular Science Monthly
The casting tables. the most important pieces
Of apparatus in plate-glass works, are 10 feet
long, IA feet wide, aud inches thick. Each is
provided with an iron roller 80 inches in diam
eter and 10 feet long. Strips of iron on each
side of the table afford bearing for the rollers
and determine the thickness of the plate of
glass to be cast. The rough plate is commonly
nine sixteenths of an inch in thickness; after
polishing 1t is reduced to six or seven six
teenths. The casting tables are mounted on
wheels, and run on track that reaches every
furnace and annealing oven in the building
The table having been Wheeled as near as possi-
BILE to the melting furnace the pot of molten
glass Is lifted by a crane and its contents
quickly poured on the table. The heavy iron
roller is then passed from end to end spreading
the glass into layer of uniform thickness. The
whole operation of casting scarcely occupies
more time than ii takes to describe it. Each
movement is made with almost nervous rapid
ity. Few industries offer such fine scenic dis
play as the pouring of the molten glass; One
feels like crying encore! it is SO very brilliant.
In contact with the cold metal of the table
the glass cools rapidly. As soon as possible,
the door Of the annealing oven is opened and
the plate Of glass introduced. The floor Of the
oven is on the same level as the casting table,
so that the transfer can be conveniently and
quickly made. When, after several days, the
glass is taken out of the oven, its surface is
found to be decidedly rough and uneven. A
small quantity is used in this condition for sky
lights and other purposes where strength is
required without transparency. It is known
in the market as rough plate. The greater
part of the glass. however, is ground, smoothed,
and polished before it leaves the establish
ment.

How Women Hamper Themselves.

From the Chenango Journal
Why don't women have pockets? They carry
their purses in their hands and their handker-
chiefs in their bodices, and they carry little
bag about as big as pint cup on their arms
the exact use Of which has never been defined
There is a liberal wholesaleness about the way
a man provides in the construction of his dress
for his own wants that is actually refreshing in
comparison with the way women inconvenience
themselves. A man has plenty Of pockets He
can carry keys. A woman is always wondering
where she left or hid hers. When the exigen-
cies of the weather cause him to have re-
course to his "wipe" he puts hand into his
pocket and hauls out a liberal square of
cambria. A woman under like circum-
stances just shifts, and continues to
sniff. When man sits down in a street
car he waits till the genii Of the bell-punch
and register stands in front Of him, then he
puts his thumb and forefnger in tiny pocket
in his overcoat and hauls out his ticket. The
woman begins to get her change ready when
the conductor is at the other end of the car.
She pulls her bag off her arm. draws it open.
takes out her purse, pulls of her silk mitten,
opens her purse, uncfasps an inner compart,
ment, takes out nickel, puts it between her
lips-faugh-snaps the compartment shuts
the purse, opens her bag, and puts away the
purse, and pulls on the mitten again. And
this is a fair sample of the way women hamper
themselves in all the little things-and life is
made up OF them-and then complain of the
disadvantages of sex. There is nothing on
earth to prevent any individual woman from
enjoying innumerable pockets, loose sleeves,
bifurcated underskirts short hair, &C., and
all the other modern feminine improvements.
