Cork Coverings for steam Pipes.

A paper on the superior value of
cork coverings for steam pipes and as a
protection Of water service pipes from
frost has been published by a French
engineer. According to this paper. one
variety Of these coverings which is
found &c be very efficient consists of
pieces of cork, shaped to fit the differ
ent sizes of pipes, with radial joints,
similar 10 the slaves of a barrel. which
are placed around the pipe and for the
time bound TO the pipe by strings.
After the pipe so covered has been used
with steam for solne time and the cork
been sufficiently sdTied. the crevices are
filed in and the string replaced by wire
elbows being also covered in the same
manner and, after the covering is
finally fixed. the pores and crevices are
closed by a GOA of paint or lime wash.
In another arrangement, as proposed,
rectangular blocks Of cork, about / IA
inch wide, and varying in thickness
from one-fourth of an inch for small
pipes TO ive-eighths Of an inch for
pipes from four inches in diameter
and upward. and cemented to strips
of cloth by an india rubber solution,
are used; the bands are tapped spi-
rally around the pipes and elbows and
covered by another band Of water

MRS. AsToR GOT MAD.
Threatening a Caterer if He Did Not

From the st. Louis Republic.


From the st. Louis Republic
NEW YORK, March Silt leaked out to-
day that Mrs. Astor had threatened to ruin
the business of Sherry, the Fifth avenue
caterer, unless he cut down a bill rendered
for services at the second assembly ball.
The reduction asked for was $500 from a
total of 81, $50 Mrs. Aston represented the
committee. 1t appears that Mr.. Sherry
does not fear Mrs. Aston as he might When
the time for settling the bills for both the
assembly balls cam eMrs. Aston called at
Mr.. Sherry's Fifth avenue establishment.
When the bill for the second Assembly
was taken up Mrs. Aston expressed herself
as greatly surprised at the amount, 1880.
II have been sent to you by the committee
to request you to reduce the amount of
your bill. We cannot afford to pay SO
much. am Mrs. Aston" said the lady.
"What amount did you say you wanted
me to deductg
-Four hundred dollars, Mr.. Sherry"
II cannot cut $500 of my bill, for then
would bs doing work at loss instead of a
profit"
"Then you refusei Please remember that
you are talking to Mrs. Aston"

fuse to cut penny or nv BILL"
"Do you know, Mr.. Sherry, that can

actually was forced to wait half an hour
before I could get a seat, and another half
an hour before one of your walters came
near me. And, Mr.. Sherry, that wait was
actually impolite. When he brought me
something to eat it was nothing but dried
up old partridge. 1t was not tit to eat, and
he slammed it down on the table. Yes, in
deed, he did. Don't you know. Mr.. Sherry,
Aeka h.

that dinner, that she would never again

praise from Mrs. Vanderbilt for the service
l gave her."
"You will hear from me again, sir" said
Mrs. Astor.
The bill was not cut, and it was paid by
Mrs. Astor, who did not care to be sued, for
it is said Mr.. Sherry threatened to do this If
he was not paid the full amount, according
to contract
Mr.. Sherry, when seen to-day, was greatly
surprised that the story had reached tue pub

1ssterday the result in tlMcNany damage

FAR as the city court is coerned, by Judge
Harden directing a yaict for the de-
fsrdant, on a motionmade by Mr..
SpBignon on the ground at McNaliy had
failed TO strengthen his CO, and under the
dacsion of the supreme cSt it should be
decided against him. Thjudge required
one of the Jury to sign th verdict. which
was written out by the cossel for the rail-
way company, without permitting the jury
N retire. He declined, ven the request
was made by one of MIR. IcNally's attor-
news to permit the inquiryo be made as to
whether this was the verdi Of the jury.
The first Juryman to WIN the document
was offered for a signatui wouldn't touch
il and shook his head. 1t Tas offered to a
second, and he likewise declined. Then
there was an awkward plse. The Judge
looked at the jury andhe jury at the
Judge. Judge Harden finsy told the jury
that the verdict must b rendered as he
directed, and one of thenfnaliy complied
with the order Of court.
This was the fourth heang Of the case
before the city court. II first trial re-
suited in a mistrial, the jur disagreeing as
to the amount of ne recovery.
The second trial result in a YER
dict for plaintiff for $1,000. Upon
motion of the company Judge Harden
granted new trial. Uponthe third trial
the jury gave plaintiff verlct for $40, 900.
Judge Harden granted anothr new trial to
the company. The plaintifook the grant
OF this new trial to the suprne court, and
the court sustained the glnt, holding
that the judge of the city
court would be justifle in con-
tinuing to grant new trial uless the evil
dence for plaintiff was strengthened. The
