READING, Pa, March 28.-Many iron
men and others continue to flock to n
secluded section Of Washington town
ship, this county, where experiments
are soon TO bemade with one OF Edison's
greatest and most recent inventions
known Gs the Edison concontrator, the
object OF which Is TO concentrate tho
real ore dug from mine and get rid, by
mechanical means, OF oil dirt and earthly
matter that interferes with smelling.
This machine has been successfully
tested In Edison's laboratory. Itisclaim-
ed II will reduce immensely tho cost OF
smelling and bring into use ores that
cannot now be proftably worked. New
York capitalists have bought eight acres
Of iron ore land, where the experiments
will be made. They have been incorpo-
rated under the name OF the Pennsyl-
vania Concentrating Company. Build.
ings and machinery are now being put
up at q cost Of $4,000.
The invention, II is believed, will

tons Of his constituents and what he
believed to be the sentiments OF the
majority Of the people.
The resolution was explicit, and re-
quired little explanation, In view OF
the past twenty years II ought TO obtain
the support Of the House. While
II might be true that the bill was
within the spirit Of the British North
American act, yet Parliament possessed
authority to deal with matters imperil-
ing Canada's national existence. He
reviled what he termed tho hlstory'of
the Jesuit order.
1t was true that the first work In the
direction Of Christianizing the heath.

Garrett and those Of his party whom
they thought advisable to detain and
hold them prisoners In q cave until the
relatives In Baltimore should come down

Something worth Reading.

"a Tin Roof Is the title Of little
book Just issued by Messrs. Merchant &
Co., 5l7 Arch street, Philadelphia. The
purpose Of the publication Is TO supply
to builders architects and the general
public some exact information as to the
best methods Of constructing a tin roof
and as 10 the right materials to be used
TO secure satisfactory and permanent re-
suits. We especially recommend the
book, which Is intended for gratuitous
distribution, to mill owners. They are
very apt to trust the matter OF roofing
wholly 10 builders and they usually
know really very little about the charac.
ter Of the tin used or the excellence OF
the defectiveness OF the Job. This
pamphlet will help them TO protect
their interests. It Is very explicit, per
fectly comprehensible,, and we think
wholly trustworthy. It Is quite pro
fusely illustrated and the cuts indicate
processes Of applying tin.rootlng which
insure excellence.

CuARLRsToN, W. Va, March o8.-The
certificates given by the Ex-Governor tc
the defeated Democratic candidates fol
Congress in the Third and Fourth Dis.
trlcts, have secured them a place on the
roll Of the Clerk Of the House, whichen
titles them to draw the salary. But Il
seems they receive no reorganization al
the Departments. The Republican
members elected are recognized as the
members, and their indorsment as
such members is necessary TO secure
an appointment, Much OF their
time, Is taken up in looking after
the wants Of the constituents, and en-.
tightening the appointing officers in fill
ing the offices. The action OF the ex.

compels the Republican Congressmen'
elect to give notices Of contest. They
are being prepared, and will be served
this week. The time within which they
must be served is understood 10 expire

It is stated that notice has been given
