To Be Kept for the Present in Solitary
 Confinement in a County Jail.
 LONDON, Aug. 26.-For the next nine months Mrs. Maybrick will be kept on probation in solitary confinement in some county jail, probably where she is now. No one will be allowed to see her during that time, nor any letters to reach her. She will be kept continuity employed at such work as she can do in a cell.
 After her term of probation expires she will be drafted to one of the female convict prisons, though in what part of England no one will know till the mo- ment comes to remove her. If she has been good during tho probation she will be allowed one letter and one visitor each year till by further good conduct she earns three letters and three visit ors each year. These rules are rigidly and infiexibly carried out in England. She may be removed from one prison to another. The chances are that in twenty years she will be a free woman again.

Hot and Noisy Work Requiring Consider
 able Skill and Strength.

0DAo SkiA anu StfenSLns
 All readers have seen iron chains, though 1t is to be hoped that mono of them will ever have to wear one For all that, they may be glad to know something about the proc ess of making them, a process thus dc- scribed by the Pittsburgh Dispatch:
 Tho first operation Is the making of the links. The material comes in coils, each containing from eighty to one hundred and twenty feet of round iron rod, which is of uniform diameter and of various sizes. cor responding to the different styles of chains.
 A piece of this wire is placed in the groove of a powerful machine, the wheel is started, Q twisting motion imparted, and the iron comes forth in spiral roll, looking as the outer strand of a rope might if sep arated from the component parts.
 The groove into which the iron is pressed, and tho spndle-like arrangement about which the coil is formed, make the coil ex- actly uniform throughout, the links being tho same distance apart, and of the same size. The machine does its work rapidly; but little time is consumed in converting the eighty or more feet of rod into shape for chain links.
 Tho next step in the manufacture of chain is the cutting of the links. The spiral coil goes from the hands of the first workman to another who places 1t in long sheet-iron trough, suspended as high
  bly, lower than the other.
 One end of the coil is then submitted to the operation of the cutting machine, which at single blow strikes off enough of it for Q chain Hulk. The machine is regular and rapid in its motion. The workman has only to hold the iron in position, and from two hundred to two hundred and seventy five links are cut every minute. They drop into spout, and roll therefrom into 8 small cart, which is hauled away when full to the welding department.
 So far all the work has been done without the agency of heat, but tho chain can not be completed without the agency of fire. The final operation is welding the links together. Standing beside Q furnace in which 8 hot natural gas fire is blazing, the workman seizes Q piece of tho hite-hot metal with his tongs, places it on Q die, and putting his foot on a trcadle causes a spring hammer to descend, giving shape to the link.
 Two other turns and two more blows of the hammer, and the link is completely formed and welded together. Another piece is then taken from the fire, and the open end defIly slipped around the link just formed. It Is then operated upon just as the first link was; another is added, then another; the chain is growing rapidly so fast, indeed, that two feet or more of it has been finished before the rcd glow has died out of the first link welded. Of tho mall.chain, which the workman is now making, the welding of three thousand | links is considered good days work More can be made of smaller size, and less of 8 larger. It is hot and noisy work.

Killed from Ambush.

YAzoo, CITY. Miss, Aug, 26.-Captain Sam Whitworth, who was recently ac- quilted at Greenville of the charge of murdering Ives and Aston, of the McCarthy's Brothers gang, who were killed during a fight with Whitworth and two friends, at Rising Sun a year ago, was shot dead from ambush while riding near Rising Sun last night.
