The Greatest Lathe in the World.

Perhaps one of the most marked
novelties in the Machinery hall in the
Paris Exposition is the monster lathe
shown by Messrs. Greenwood & Bailey,
of Leeds. This extraordinary machine
tool weighs nearly 800 tons, and has
been made for Schneider's steel works
at LIE Creusot. 1t is intended for rough
boring and turning steel ingots of the
largest dimensions, such as those used
in the manufacture of heavy gun tubes
and jackets. 1t is the most powerful
lathe in the world. The space it occu-
pies is about seventy-five feet by twenty
feet. An ingot tifty-two feet long and
eight feet in diameter can be turned by
this ''leviathar." 1t has four indepen-
dent saddles, each of which carries two
tools, eight tools being thus set to work
if required at one time. Each tool
takes a cut one and a half inches in
depth, and advances at the rate OF four
or five cuts per inch. A hole forty
inches in diameter may be bored
through an ingot thirty-two feet long.

She Spat On Her Bait.

We had long since voted her the
prettiest girl in the boat. This would
have been an Offset for poor luck Mt

we weren't saying word for fear Of
spelling her, and by and by she looked
up to the grizzly old capt;in and
asked:
Captain, shouldn't l spit on my

"Guess you should" he replied.
'Lemme put on fresh shrimp and
then you can spit"
"Real hard?"
Yes"

She held the hook within three
inches Of her nose, twisted her tongue
three or four times. and then gave a

two spoonfuls Of drippings left in fry

APPLE PRESERVES do not keep so
we'll as some other kinds OF fruits, but
this is delicious preparation: Make

the apples, boil until transparent and
place in jar. Boil the syrup until
very thick and pour over them.
SALT CELLARS AT THE t'SHoRE. "
The quality of table salt and its tend
eucy to pack together may be over
come by drying the salt and mingling
with it small percentage of dry corn
starch or arrow root. From 8 to 10
per cent is amply sufficient for the
most humid atmosphere, while much
less percentage of the starch is suffic-
lent for ordinary use.

The autumn leaves are whirled away;
The sober skies look down
On faded fields and woodlands gray,
And the n-colored town.
Through the brown orchards gusty aisle
In sad-huod gown and hood
Slow passes, with o peaceful smile,
A maiden pure and good.
Her deep, serene, and dove-like eyes
Are downward bent; her face,
Whereon the days pale shadow lies,
Is sweet with nameless grace.
The frolic wind beside her blows;
The scar leaves dance and leap;
With hands before her clasped, she goes
AS in waking sleep.
To her the ashen skies are bright
The russell earth is fair;
And never shone clearer light,
Nor breathed a softer air.
o wizard love! whose magic art
Transmute to sun the shade,
Thine are the beams that fill the heart
OF this meek Quaker maid.

southern pride. He saw his fathers
infatuation for the faded and dis
graced ventures. Illness came; he
sank and went off the stage in his
coffin. A year before this melancholy
ending of life came, the World corre-
spondent was one day in the Office of
Judge Terry in Stockton. A local
journalist came in on the run, with ex-
cited eyes.
Judge" he cried, "what do you
think! jeff Blank has married Kittie
Door,
This meant that young lawyer
noted for his talents and vices had
taken woman he had been living
with to the altar.
"Well, dye know what I'd do if a
boy of mine did thing like that?"
asked Judge Terry, disgust on his
hard face.
There was silence.
'.Pd forget to lock the liquor closet, I"
slowly explained the future husband of
Sarah Althea, land I'd put strychuine
in the Jug"
Yet after Terry had married his
Sarah he took as his partner the
husband of Kitty Doe.
When in 1886 the judge shocked the
state by marrying Sharon's alleged ex-
wife friend-ashamed enough to con-
ceal his name-made defense of the
act in the form of an explanation in
the San Francisco Post.
Judge Terry" he wrote, "would
resent my appearance as his apologist
for this as for any other thing he has
done during his long, varied. and said
life. He is 81 years old, knows his
own mind, the worth of the worlds ap-
proval or blame, and is able to should
err his own burdens. Nevertheless, on
behalf of the southerners who have so
long regarded him as an esteemed
leader, courageous beyond common
men, !, confident of his silence under
new contumely. shall volunteer to be
his spokesman.
''He is old. His former wife, the
companion of his years of struggle and
belligerence, is dead. His oldest son has
joined his mother. This latest
marriage has estranged him from his
youngest son and from all relatives.
THE spirit in which the Judge has
met this family hostility is shown in
the manner in which he has encounter
ed the condemnation OF his younger
son. To the boy he has given ranch
in Fresno, told him to take possession
and speak to him no more.
'.There is no heat or temper in the
judges course. All that bound him to
his younger life, with its ambitions, has
died. For quarter of a century he
has been the baited victim of public
opinion, because he killed a man who
would have killed him had his never
and courage been of the Terry kind.
Why, therefore, should the judge care
for public opinion? He has outlived
illusions, ties, affections. He finds a
young woman attacked, whether innc-
cent or guilty, by the hounds OF money.
He has made himself her champion.
He has given her the shield of his
name.
There is chivalry in that, is there
not?"
Nevertheless southerners, like people
devoid of high-hown notions, were
prone to regard the judge as an old
man who had not the strength of mind
to stand out against the wiles of de-
signing and unprincipled young
woman.

------------
Cause of DeDressiOn-

Farmers and cattle raisers have sur
veyed the fields carefully and estimat-
ed supply and demand, and have been
constantly defeated in their estimates
of the probable prices for hogs and
cattle in the future. What is the mat
ter? 1t is the combination of beef and
pork packers In 1886 nine of the
leading meat packers of Chicago, Kan
sas City, ETC., in all OF the important
packing centers, made solemn con-
tract and signed, with severe financial
penalties, an agreement to keep down
the prices of hogs and keep up the
price of pork. This agreement has
been punctually observed by the
parties. The contract provides that
each establishment shall do only a cer-
tain per cent of all of the business OF
the pool. II any establishment packs
more than its per cent it pays weekly
TO the pool 4lc for each hog in excess
of its per cent. II any packer falls
short he receives a bonus OF the same
amount per hog. Some OF the former
packing houses have not packed q hog
for two years, and have received the
bonus for each hog they were emit tied
TO pack, The houses which have over
packed have paid TO the pool over
100000 for the privilege. This can
easily be done, us the parties control
the price Of hogs as well as the selling
price OF packed and cured pork. So
the depression in the price of hogs is
well understood.
There is no hope OF relief from the
understood fact that the present pool
was to continue only until November,
1889. There have been combinations
by pork packers and beef slaughterers
for fifteen or twenty years, at first
temporary and modest in assumptions.
At each renewal OF the pool the screws
have each time been given a new turn,
and it is probable at the coming
November. instead of relief to pro-
ducers and consumers, the combination
will be stronger demand more, and
the rights of producers less. And what
is being done in the hog trade is also
controlling the price Of cattle, as we'll
as booming the price of beef And
these are the instrumentalities which
are ruling this country. -Des Moines
