How Bank of England Notes Are Made

How Bank of England Notes Are Made.
Bank Of England notes are made from
new white linen cuttings-never from
anything that has been worn. So care
fully is the paper prepared that even the
number of dips into the pulp made by
each workman is registered ON q dial 10y
machinery. and the sheets are counted
and booked TO each person through whose
hands they pass. They are made at La-
verstroke. on the river Whit, in Hamp-
shire, by family named Portal. descend
ed from French Huguenot refugee, and
have been made 10y the same family for
more than 1jOyears About $50 large
quantity Of the paper was stolen by one
of the employees, which caused the bank
q great deal of trouble, as the printing is
8 comparatively easy matter the great
difficulty with forgers being to get the
paper.
They are printed within the bank
building, there being an elaborate az
rangement for making them so that each
note of the same denomination shall diff
fer in some particular from the other

When an Indian reservation is appro-
priatod by the United States govern
mont the eastern view generally is
that the Indians have been gricvously
wrongcd but the Sioux have really done
remarkably well with their lands. better
probably than any other tribe. The orig
inal contract was that they should part
with no land unless thrce-fourths of the
male adults of the various tribes gave
their assent TO the concession.
The discovery of gold in the Black
Hills. however. in 1874 caused over fifty
thousand people TO flood Western Da-
kota, so that in 1876 the government de-
clared the extreme western portion OF
Dakota open 60 settlement. This was q
result Of "a treaty with Red Cloud and
the Sioux chiefs who bad been captured
and returned TO their reservations.
This can hardly be deemed % breach of
faith upon the part of the United States
for during the Sioux war of 1S54-1j-,G,
which resulted in the Custer massacre
and the flight into British America Of q
portion Of the tribes under Sitting Bull.
the government troops used all possible
diligence in capturing and turning back
the Black Hills gold seekers. The pio-
neers poured i'm from all directions and
fought their way to the Land Of gold;
indeed it may bc said that the country
was captured by them.
"The Indian Rights association" the
"Indian Defense association" and the va
rious religious denominations that have
their mission schools and lay preachers
at work throughout the great Sioux res
ervation have labored with senators and
to keep faith with the
Sioux, and ash no more land save lg the
stipulation of three-fourths agreement
of the male adults, as provided for in the
treaty of 1865.

inch stream OF water to large tank on the
top of the building. In one of the cellars is
machinery for making artificial ice, and the
cooling capacities of the brine pipes
is equal to 60 tons of fee a
day. In the smokehouse are smoked six
carloads of product day. The pudding
kitchen and packing room are on the second
story above ground. The machinery was
put in by j. L. Clark, the Power Hall me-

all that was expected of it.
The Christian world seems to have de-
cided that the hog was created for food as

sary to propagate him for food, it is COM
forting to know that his life is a compara-
lively happy one, the most part of which he
would choose for himself. He is glutton
and takes kindly to the safety offered him
by his numerous friends. When he gets to
the Second avenue slaughter house, after
his long journey from Kansas or some other
part of the West, he is tired, and he enjoys
the dolce far niente until within three
minutes of the time suo-lunar sorrows cease,
and all that can be devised to complete his
happiness is some anasthetic that will save
this brief agony and not harm the pork.

CHANCELLOR GoFF's SUCCESSOR
Not to be Sele cted for Some Time t,
Come.

Not to be Sele cted for Some Time to
Come.
The position made vacant by the death of
Chancellor Milton B. Gof of the Western
University OF Pennsylvania, will probably
not be filled for some time. Mr. James B..
Scott. President of the board, said yesterday
that the meeting to be held to-day is merely
to pass resolutions appropriate to the death
of the eminent educator. He said it would
not be respectful to the dead Chancellor to
elect his successor SO soon.
AT present the school is moving along
smoothly. For some time previous to the
Chancellor's death, he was unable to attend
to his duties, and Prof. Carhart was made
Chairman of the faculty. This position he
still holds, to the utmost satisfaction of all |,
and there is no reason why any change
should be made so soon. There is some talk
of Prof. Carhart being the successor of
Chancellor Gof, but as to whether there was
any foundation for the rnmor, could not be
learned. All interested refused to talk on
the question, out of respect to Mr.. Golf.
Prof. Carhart would make an eminently
proper successor to Chancellor Goff. He has
been with the school since 1882, coming to
accept the position of professor of engineer
ing. At present he is also acting professor
of mathematics. He is also the author of
numerous volumes on surveying, which have
gained for him national reputation.

TOO MANY FOXES.

Rare Chance for Anglomaniacs-TwoT Town
ships That Are Run Over With Chicken
Thieves-An Incident That Shows Their
Audacity.
About 9 o'clock yesterday morning red
fox with fine brush crawled through a
fence separating pasture field from the
woods northwest of Ewing's mill, and
ambling along within 200 yards of a number
of men, pounced on fat buff-cochin hen.
How he got up to the flock of chickens
without being seen was a mystery. The
hen gave one despairing squall, and then
gave up the ghost, and her companions all
fled, squalling loudly, without attempting
rescue. Even the lordly rooster ingloriously
fed with the remainder of his harem.
There was herd of steers feeding nearby,
and when the hen squalked they looked up,
and seeing the fox charged on him, heads
down and tails erect, nostrils foaming and
eyes flashing. He, however, succeeded in
getting through the fence and into the
woods, carrying tine hen with him, though
she seemed to be as heavy as himself
In Robinson and Moon townships there
are many rocky caverns in deep woods, and
foxes are very plenty. The agriculturists
think city sportsmen, who almost annihilate
quail and grouse each wear, would be of
more use if they were to cultivate the sport
of chasing foxes, which are becoming more
of nuisance each season.

THINKS he HASA WIFE In GREENSBURG

Raving wildly in little cell in the Alle-
gheny lookup is tall, dark man, about sc
years old. He is slender, yet his muscles
stand out like whipcords. He pounded the
bars of his cell all night, and called con-
tinually for stones. Whenever any one ap-
peared before his cell he would invite them
in ito join the great Brotherhood of
American Mechanics" Then his tone
would change, and he would imagine him.
self in buggy, with his sweetheart, on
their way to be married. He thought he
was fleeing from an imaginary pursuer, and
madly urged on his phantom horses.
The name of the man is j. D. Bowers, of
Bakerstown. He was arrested Thursday
night, on Pittsburg and Western train,
for disorderly conduct. His only baggage
was Bible and box of photographs. Yes
terday morning it was discovered he was
crazy. He told Major Hunker he was mar
ried and that his wife had a millinery store
in Greensburg. No such woman could
be found there. When Bowers was searched,
however, a letter was found on him from
Miss Lizzie NJ. Or, who has millinery
store in Greensburg. Bowers still labors
under the hallucination that he is married.
The letter was only OF a nature such as one
friend might write to another and treated of
family and business matters.
The real cause of Mr.. Bowers insanity
cannot be discovered, but it was part
due to his losses in oil. By years of labor
be accumulated about $1,000 He took
contracts for putting down oil wells. Within
the last year he has lost two sets OF tools
after the wells had reached a depth of
almost 1000 feet As result everything
was swept away. He owned nothing but
his Bible and the pictures OF his friends.
On Friday he nearly set fire to his fathers
house, in Bakerstown, and then started out
into the world.
His father appeared at City Hall yester-
day, but refused to take his son away.
Major Hunker will try to make the county
authorities take care of him.

HANILTONS GREETING.

He Pledges Himself to Please You as No One
Else Can.
S. Hamilton, the dealer in musical instru-
ments and goods, at 81 Fifth avenue, has on
hand not only the largest stock of goods, but
one OF the greatest diversity of character,
qualities and prices. His prices range from
the lowest to the highest, according to the
quality of the instrumentor article required,
and therefore he rightly claims to be able
to suit every purchasers tastes and means.
No one who obtains comprehensive view OF
the contents of his extensive storerooms can
doubt this for q moment.
Hamilton has already booked several or
ders for instruments intended for holiday
presents, and expects to receive good many
more, which are to be delivered at the proper
time. These have been selected and set
aside, and are therefore not regarded as in
stock, but are still on exhibition. However,
there are enough left until others shall be
procured to take their places, so that there
will always remain the same infinite variety
from which to select. Leave your orders as
early as possible so as to avoid the rush
which will inevitably occur as the holidays
approach. You can buy anything you
please in the music line at Hamilton's, 81
and 90 Fifth avenue.

BOTH MAN AND MONEY MISSING.
Sudden Disappearance of a Southsider Who

Sudden Disappearance of a Southsider Who
Secured 500 Insurance.
Since yesterday morning Frank Kraft has
been mysterlously missing, according to the
statement of his wife, who called at the
Twenty-eighth ward police station, on the
Southside, last evening. She fears that
something has happened to him, as he had
over $500 in cash with him when he disap-
peared.
Kraft is the man who is alleged to have
tried to commit suicide short time ago by
cutting vein in his wrist. His residence
is in Lower st. Clair township, and on last
Sunday morning his house was burned.
Yesterday he came to the Southside to get
the insurance on his house. His wife was
with him when he received the money. The
two were on their way home when Kraft
told his wife to wait for him at South Thir-
teenth and Carson streets. She did not no.
tice in which direction ne went when he left
her. After waiting on the street corner for
nearly two hours she started to search for
him, but had not found him up to II o'clock
last night.

A COUNTRY CONSTABLE MISSING.

He Comes to Pittsburg to Make an Arrest,
but Fails to Return.
Constable T. F. Black, of Greenville, Pa,
came to this city over week ago after a
couple OF prisoners, but has not been seen
since the Gay of his arrival, and there is
considerable speculation as to his wherea-
bouts.
About two weeks ago Inspector McAleese
received telegram from A. H. Robbins, Of
Greenville, asking him to arrest Robins and
Russell, managers of theatrical company
performing at. the Worlds Museum in Allie
gheny, on charge OF libel. The Inspector
did not make the arrest, but found where
the men wanted were and notified Robbins
to send an officer.
The Inspector got a letter from Robins
dated November 10. stating that Constable
Black had been sent after the two men, with
all necessary papers, but up to date had not
returned. A Geeenville man who was in
the citv on the 9th inst, says he saw Black
at the Inspectors Office that day, but the In
spector was not in and Black went away.
He has not been heard of since.

COMPLETING THEIR WORK.
THE GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE WILL SOON
BE READY TO SEE Mr.. WOOD.

He is the Only Man Who Can Give Them
What They want-New Glass House in
CoraopoIis-Other Labor News.
The Grievance Committee representing
the north and southwest divisions of the
Pennsylvania Company's system has its
work about completed. Had two other
committeeman representing two of
the Ft Wayne divisions been pres
ent at Yesterdays meeting the committee
would probably have been ready to meet
Mr.. Wood to-day. But the work was him
dered somewhat by the absence of these
two men, who are expected to arrive early
this morning.
The complaints from every division on the
Southwest system have been received and
acted upon. The matter will all be settled
at to-day's meeting, and On Monday the
proposition of the committee will be pre-
sented to Mr.. Wood.
call was made ct the Office of Mr.
Watts, but that gentleman had not received
any official notice of their men being in the
city and he could not see any good reason
why the men should step over the rules and
their division superintendents for the pur-
pose of presenting claims to either the gen.
eral superintendent or manager. MIR.
Watts has been entertaining the belief that
when the Grievance Committee completes
its work, the members will return home and
present whatever claims or demands they
may have to their respective division super
intendents.
In this connection one of the committee
men said (without knowing anything about
its condition): 'If you wanted milk, you
wouldn't go to the Monongahela river for it.
would you? Our business will be with Mr.
Wood when the proper time comes. There
is no use asking man for something when
we know it is not within his power to give
it. That is the shape we are in with respect
to the division superintendent, and that is
the reason we are not calling on them. Mr..
Wood is the only man who can give us
what we want"
