ARE THEY ~ EARNEST:

If one should doubt whether the
Uuion Pacific Railway Company are in
earnest about building the extension OF
road which is to pass through Lincoln
county it might be questioned by some
whether the doubter had the proper use
of his reasoning faculties. Large sums
Of money are being expended along the
line Of the road, in cutting, filling, making
tunnels, etc. Yet, while tits given out
that the road is to be finished to Phoebe
before the end of this year. it is said, by
those who should be competent to judge,
that the progress Of the work is SO slow
that at the present rate it could not posi-
bly be finished within two years. The
difficulty seems toibe lack Of laboring
men. This difficulty can be easily RENE.

for services, whether it be for carrying
freight or passengers, or for reducing ore

VALUABLE DIsCOvERY.s
The Ancient Method Of Tempering
Copper Again I'm Use.

Copper is known to be the basis Of
nearly all anti-friction metals. It. how.
ever, lacks the strength in its natural
state for bearings, and must be hardened
by matchmaking with tin and other
metals. to give it the required strength
and hardness. Such mixtures change
the whole nature of the copper, leaving
it a granular and brittle metal with =
hard grinding surface, instead Of tough
fibrous metal. That copper was har.
dened or tempered by the ancients no
one can doubt, as samples Of edged tools
and relics of all kinds have been found,
composed of pure copper. and are on ex.
hibition in all collections. 1t is said that
the Eureka Tempered Copper Co. Of
Northeast, Pa, has discovered the pro.
cess, and is able to supply the trade
with any and all kinds Of copper caab
solid. tempered to any gauge that the
work expected Of them demands.
Among the uses that tempered copper
can be put are: Locomotive and rail-
road bearings, engine boxes (high or low
speedy, gears, ,pinions, GIBBS, rolling mill
boxes, mill steps, springs Of all kinds,
roll plate for boiler plates, all kinds Of
journal bearings, loose pullies, friction
clutches, carriage axles and boxes, street
car boxes, steam pumps and valves,
pump Innings, riders brasses, commute.
tor straps or bars, electric brushes. dyn.
amite shells, bearing boxes for electric
motors and dynamos, trolley wheels,
electric switches or cutouts.

A Scoring.

The attorneys for the plaintiff, in
the case Of II. J. Carrigan VS.. r. G.
McNiece and Others gave the de-
PENDANTS a terrible scoring. The
defendants are trustees Of Mount
0livet Cemetery, and most Of them
are ministers OF Christian denoml-
nations. In the case on trial, Mr..
Carrigan sues for damages for the
removal Of the body Of his wife
from the LOT where she was buried.
On former occasion he sued for
AMI obtained damages for the re-
moval Of his two children, under
similar circumstances.
The facts Of this case are, in brief,
that Mr.. Carrigan ownei n lot in
the cemetery, where his wife was
buried. Tho beard adopted a
rule providing that when the
owner Of lot failed to pay
the water tax within thirty
days he forfeited the lot, and bodies
inferred there were to be removed.
A water tax of So was due on Mr..
Carrigan's lot, and as IL was not paid
within the time allotted, the grave
was opened and the body OF his wife
removed. The Christian gentlemen
claimed that they sent notice in
regard to the tax 10 Mr.. Carrigan,
through the postoffice, but that gen.
tleman said he never received IL.
and he first became aware Of the ac-
ton taken by visiting the cemetery
aud finding pieces OF the coffin in
which his wife was buried on the
ground near the lot. He then
brought suit for $1,000, and the jury
gave him a verdict for $500.
At the hearing yesterday the
defendants were represented by T..
l.. Williams, who based his motion
for a new trial on the ground that
the verdict was not warranted by
the evidence and that 1t was
rendered through passion and pre-
judice and that the damages were
excessive.
The motion was opposed by G. S.
Narian and Judge Powers. Mr..
Narian, after discussing the legal
questions involved, concluded by
raking the parsons over the Goals in
vigOnDus style for their conduct in
ruthlessly tearing open n grave and
removing a body because a paltry
water tax, which the plsinhfrdid no,
know was due, had Tot been paid. He
said the conduct Of these Christian
gentlemen was so brutal, shocking
and repulsive that he mad mo
patience to discuss it. The case was
an important one, because the rights
of the people, whose dead were
buriei in that cemetery, were in
volved. AS for the defendants, he
had nothing but thu deepest con-
tempt for them and Re only regretted
that they were not present to hear
him say 80.
Judge Powers discussed the law
Of damages and applied II to the
case. In referring TO the defend
ants, he said that men who would
commit such an act OF saciile.e IS
they had been guilty of were not fit
70 walk the streets with decent men.
The case was taken under advise
ment.
