NVe aud Riley Will Lecture for the Press
Club on December 5.
Bill Nye and James Whitcomb Riley will be
at Lafayette Hall, December 5. under the au-
spices of the Press Club. The only William
and the Hoosier poet will do something in the
pathetic and witty line calculated to produce
many facial wrinkles and a few tears. Last
year the hall was crowded to hear this funny
team. AT that time Bill lectured and Jim re-
cited poetry alternately, and everybody enjoyed
the variety. This year they have adopted
different plan but their reputation is such that
what they originate is exceptionally good.
Bald-headed Bill is favorite in Pittsburg. and
his Hoosier coadjutor can be as polished as
Chauncey Depew and as funny as Riley only
can be-

Little Willie Briggs Catches n Spanking

Instead of WOOdchuck.
'MIDDLETowN, CONN, November 2.-Little
Willie Briggs, of Portland, as he sits on one
side of himself to eat his meals, is Illuminating
contritely now on the text, Behold what an in
fernal rumpus little fire kindleth. William is
sore in mind and sorer in that part Of the body
where shingle in old Mr.. Briggs hand smote
him. The lad hunted woodchucks last Satur-
day, with companions, in the Connecticut River
Valley, just below Portland, and they chased q
woodchuck into fine, open-faced hole in the
bank of the river. Willie wanted the wood
chuck very much, and after trying water
pouring bucketfuls of it into the burrow un-
availingly, the boys tried fire next They got
together great quantity of leaves and dried
wood, and, stufang the fuel far down the hole,
they touched 1t of with match.
1t burned finely, but the woodchuck wouldn't
come out; on the other hand, the woods took
fire. From Saturday afternoon until Monday
evening the jewellers in the valley were fighting
fire, but had had no better luck in getting it
out than was Whites luck with the ground
hog. A good many acres have been burned
over, hundreds of cords of valuable timber have
been destroyed. and the only tangible fruit from
the affair is a lesson on Scriptural text to
Willie Briggs, who sits sideways at his meals.

WHEN the official returns show a majority
of $1,000 against Malone in Virginia, and we
recall the fact that only about three months
ago the Republican managers were expecting
to carry the State, then new force is given to
the old proverb that there are greater pleasures
in anticipation than in realization.

ME-. W1LIAm WA1poRF Asro,

MR.. WILLIAM WALDORF AsToR's sar-
castle reference to Chicago as city of houses
''where the front door is opened by the house
maid" permits the inference that Mr.. Astor is
in favor of the oldfashioned Astor method of
going to the front door yourself. At least that
is the most charitable inference, the only other
alternative being that that Mr.. Astor belongs
to the class of egregious snobs who think it
smart to turn up their noses at people who do
not hire lackeys to open their doors.

In a case that recently came before the
law courts the mystery was partly solved
An officer in the guards had lost a large
sum of money at cards, and, as is the in
variable rule in the London clubs, the
debt of honor had to be paid within
tWenty-four hours. On application to the
office mentioned in the advertisement,
the officer. through his military and
social position, obtained a loan of 500
pounds sterling on his note of hand for
1'OOO pounds sterling, payable at one
months date. and there are many who
are only too glad to avail themselves of
such an agency, even at these usurious
rates

AN AMERICAN INSTITUTION.
Watch Making by Machinery
of the Work in Americas Shops.


Watch Making by neutrality-suspicious.
of the Work in Americas Shops.
brooklyn Eagle.l
Watch making by machinery is an
American institution. 1t has during the
past few years revolutionized the watch
trade of the world The plan of manu-.
facture is highly philosophical and com
prehensive, embracing every part of the
watch commencing with the rolled plates
of brass, steel and silver, the wires used
for pinions, pins and screws, and the
gems for Jewels, and by means of punch.
ing swazing, cutting, turning, polishing,
Furnishing, drilling, enameling and gid
ing, brings out the perfect mechanism of
an unrivaled time keeper. Every part of
the watch is made by machinery, each
machine doing its peculiar work to
gauge Of pattern, with an exactness no
skill or handicraft can equal
With the exception of the Jewels and
the plvots that run in them, every watch
is III every part exactly like every other
watch of the same style The Jewels are
first drilled with diamond, and then
opened out with diamond dust, on soft
halr-like iron wire, their perforations hav,
ing certain microscopic differences In
like manner the pivots of steel that are to
run IN these jewels. without wearing out
BY this operation their size is Slightly re.
duced. The jewels and pivots, after be-
ing thus finished, are classified by means
of a gauge, so deiicately graduated as to
detect difference of the 10, O00th part Of
an inch.
The jewels are classified by means of
the pivots, the jewels and pivots of the
same number fitting each other exactly.
The sizes of the several pivots and Jewels
IN each watch are carefully recorded un.
der its number, so that if any one of either
should fail in any part of the world by
sending the number of the watch to the
factory, the part desired may be readily
and cheaply replaced with unerring GER
talnty. All the other parts are made
precisely the same size, every dial plate
and case fitting one watch as we'll as
another. The escapement, which in for
elgn watches have each its own indivld-
uallty, are uniform in the American
watch.
No one who examines the machines
emploJ ed in the manufacture of American
watches will doubt that the work of the
very best European watchmakers must be
equaled, and in some respects greatly ex-
celled.

that his hens had eaten most of the dye

the eggs had just the slightest tinge of green:

A MASONIC CONTROVERSY
Ends in an Edict Against the
ceneau Scottish Rite,
GRAND MASTER OF MASoNS
or the District ot Columbia Warns
all Members ofthat Rite to With.
draw EnmIty to the Grand
Orient of France,

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Tho contro,
yersy which has been general among
the Masonic fraternity throughout the
country respecting the Cerneau Scottish
Rite, has eliminated hare in the issue
Of an edict by Harrison Diugmen, Most
Worshipful Grand Muster OF Alasons OF
the District Of Columbia, Under date OF
July %, pronounclnG the CeInean or
ganization as clandestine and warning all
members Of that rite that they are liable
to discipline from the Grand Lodge UNI
less they at once withdraw from said
Cerneau body.
The main reason for tho edict aside
from other questions arising in tho
Scottish rite controversy is stated to bo
that the Cerneau organization has estab.
llshed relations Of a mighty aud masonic
correspondence with the Grand Orient
Of France, the governing body OF Masons
in that country, which Is under the ban
Of at least every English speaking grand
lodge In the world, The grand lodges Of
this country, It Is said, have an additional
grievance against the Grand Orient OF
France because the latter persists IN
recognizing the negro Grand Lodge Of
the United States.
Grand Master Dingman's ediCt directs
that all visitors TO lodges in the District
OF Columbia shall be required TO state
before admission that they are not mem.
bers Of the Cerneau organization. Tho
meeting OF the Cerneau organization in
any Masonic hall Is also prohibited.
