From CHICAGO great in size;

Where natural gas flows free,
Onward then to CINCINNATI,
Offering two routes to the sea;
Or from MONON, where it Dranchet
Visit LAFAYETTE 80 fair:
Then see ye also LOUISVILLE,
So famed for beauty rare
Here again the "Monon" offereth

To the Gulf Coast and to Florida.

Women Start q Gas Company.

1t Is not often. that the seven sig.
natories to a company are all ladies, but
such is the case at Ross. The articles
OF association of the Ross Gas Company
(Limited) have been subscribed to by
seven ladies; the capital of the company
is Eli 500, of which amount the ladies
subscribed go, 500. Whether there will
be ladies as chairman, manager, secre-
tary, etc, or whether the fair sex will
run the works as stokers, filters. main
layers, lamplighters, collectors, etc,
we do not know. But we do know. con-
tinues our contemporary, that the ladies
have a first-class property, and we have
no doubt it will return them o handsome

The ticker at the Barge Office records:
.tone-twenty-La Bretagne, oil the
Sandy Hook Light ship" At the same
time, the message is repeated in the
office Of the steamers agents, and
scarcely five minutes elapse when Oh
the blaokboards outside their offices Is
this legend: THE steamer La Bre-
tango, from iIavre, passed the Light
ship at l;2O; will be up to her dock
about 4:30."
Passers-by scan the board; the Gus
toms authorities get ready to sem their
cutter down the bay TO meet the
| steamer. Persons having friends on
board and who have made arrange
ments with the telegraph company, re-
ceive a copy of the dispatch and get
ready to meet their friends.
All this is done, and yet but few OF
those who are notified know any thing
about the Sandy Hook light-ship, But
the passengers on the steamer do, and SO
does every one who has crossed the
ocean.
It was my good fortune to spend a
short time on the Sandy Hook light-ship
some time ago,
She was built expressly for the service
she is doing, and is strong and stanch-
calculated to weather any sea. She is
81 feet long and "a feet wide.
The cabin is large and roomy. Op
either side Of it are two lockers, which
run its entire length, and in these the
crew, keen their clothes and other per-
sonal property. Above the lockers are
six berths. The interior of the cabin is
fitted up neatly, and pictures decorate
the walls.
The crew, which consists Of six men,
including the cook, occupy the galley,
and close by is the lamp room, where the
lamps and the oil which is used in them
are kept. Here the lamps are trimmed
and cleaned, preparatory to being run up
as beacons. The lamps have red globes,
and these are fixed in a row between
several oil tanks, while alongside them
are wicks, cotton and other material.
Usually the lights consist of sixteen
rejecting lamps. Eight Of these are
boosted each evening at sunset, and form
circles about the two masts. They throw
crimson rays which can be seen for miles.
This is the welcome signal hat land is
neal at hand. A lookout is always sta
toned on board, and with the aid Of apow-
erful glass sights the incoming steamers
when they are miles away. The steam
er displays her signals, which are read
by him, and he in turn signals the tele-
graph operator, and thus tho word
flashes to the city telling just when any
particular steamer will arrive, while she
is yet well out on the sea.
The life led by the men who make
the ship their home is indeed a lonely
one. Each crew spends three months on
the ship.
During rough weather-as, for in.
stance, during the recent hurricane
the crew hasn't a particularly pleasant
berth. The ship dances about on the
waves and rolls and losses madly in her
endeavor to get loose, but the chains
that held hor fast to the two heavy
anchors are equal to any emergency

AN OLD-TlME QUILTING BEE.
