Indestructible EuameIed Bath Tubs.

Visitors to the Standard Manufacturing
Company's exhibit are asking why the
enamel Of these tubs is not injured by heat.
A practical explanation is very simple.
The tubs after being cast are heated to the
last degree consistent with retaining their
shape, when the enamel in the form of
powder is busted over the surface. The
heat of the metal melts the powder or en-
amel, causing it to flow and glaze the sur
face, and at the same time enter slightly
into the expanded pores of the metal. This
operation is repeated, three coats of the en-
amel being applied successfully. The tub
having been subjected to this intense heat
during the process of enameling cannot
therefore be affected by any amount of heat
which water can impart, and all possibility
of cracking or marring the surface is pre-
vented The difference of cost of these in
destructible tubs as compared with the or
dinary copper-lined tubs is trifing, so that
it is perfectly practicable for people of lim-
tied means to procure and enjoy the luxury
of these enameled sanitary bath fixtures.
Figures and information may be obtained at
the stores of the Standard Manufacturing
Company, Nos 531 and 533 Wood street.

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS

B. & B.
HAVE YOU Seen THEM {?

The new Fall and Winter Wraps
are simply perfection And just now,
before the new has become old by
over-much handling, is the most op-
perfume time for examining them.
The Broadcloths, English Serges,
Chevrons, Cheviots and Camels Hair
of Spring and Early Summer have
been reproduced in Fall and Winter
weights, with the additional adjunct
of Feather and Fur garniture, in such
variety as must please each and every
TASTE
A CamePs Hair Cheviot, with COL
lar and facings of Otter; the front
lined with handsome corded silk, and
elegant silk cord fastenings, combine
to give most handsome and stylish
appearance to this, but one of the
many new, seasonable Jackets.
The same jaunty cut is repeated in
Wide Vale, Beaver and Matelesse,
with collar and facings of Astrachan,
Mink, Marten; Wool Seal, Gray
Krimmer, etc.
Two striking top garments in the
English Walking Coat style, of Black
and Tan Beaver Cloth, are severely
rigid in outline-rather on the tailor
made order, one would say, but for
the handsome mink collar, front
facings and genuine mink-head fasten-
ings, a combination giving an indi-
viduality in style most admirable.
To 60 into detail and tell of Jack
cts in Notified Cloth-the prevailing
shade being one of the new browns or
greys-of the Shaggy Astrachan and
Persian Lamb collars and edgings,
and all the new and nobby effects in
cloth and "cut, " would require space
not at command. A mere hint of
the reality has been given.
And then the Furs! From Black
Coney to the finest Alaska Seal gar
ments are here. The favorite long
Cloth Capes will find their counter
part in fur. These elegant mantle
styles are: "La Tosca," Refer, Mill
tary, etc., etc., and come in Astra-
chan, Mink, Seal, Krimmer, Persian
Lamb, etc. The new Military Cape
is effectively shown in White Ermine,
lined throughout with elegant corded
silk-an exclusive novelty that will
doubtless figure in opera box, driving
or upon numberless occasions for which
it is SO happily adapted. The beau
tiful wrap need but be seen to capti-
vatethe lover of dainty, luxurious, and,
at the same time, artistic effects.

PLENTY OF VISITORS.
Out of Town People Paying Homage
to PittSburg'S Great Show.
AN EVENING FOR THE VETERANS.
The Glass Factory Exhibit Has Charms
Even for the City Folk.
BEAUTIES OF THE BIG EXPOSITION

The Exposition is drawing larger at
tendance as its season advances. The great
halls are comfortably filled all day, and at
night it was not an easy matter to move
around in the main hall when the band
commenced to play. There was good pro-
gramme, as usual, the following composers
being represented on it: Berlioz, Schu-
bert, Sullivan, Czibulka, Mendelssohn,
Ponchielli, Massanet and Emlenberg.
Next Tuesday will be Veterans night,
and Thursday will be Germans night. 1t
is proposed to have a Masonic night and
to set apart evenings for each of the nation
alirieS
in Mechanical Hall there is always an
admiring crowd around the glass furnace.
You can purchase a glass and have your
name engraved upon it 'while you wait. ="
This proves a great attraction to many Wis
itors The carpet-weaving machine is an
other favorite exhibition. People are
learning more about the manufacture of
carpet than they could obtain in any other
way.
One of the busiest spots in the main hall
is the little house where a cup of tea is
given to any visitor that asks for it, The
tea is good, and it proves very refreshing
for the ladies who have been strolling about
and have become somewhat tired. Even
the men are not above taking a cup of tea
occasionally. and there is a busy time for
the two gentlemen in attendance.
There were a large number of country
people in attendance yesterday. The sew
eral railroads are running excursions, and
the out-of-towu contingent is therefore very
large at the Exposition every day. There
are 50 MANY things in the two large halls
that cannot be seen elsewhere that the en-
JlrJainment Is ever new. 1t is noticeable
THAI many Pittsburgers who are near glass
houses and other manufactures all the wear
around, look upon the processes in Ma
Chinerv Hail with as much eager curiosity
as if they lived in the country, far away
from sUrh things.
One OF the fashions of the Exposition that
i observed by ninety-nine out of hundred
o. the visitors, is to purchase ball of
popcorn and eat it during the time they are
in the building, while more balls of the
sweet stuff are carried away as souvenir of
the occasion. The consumption of popcorn
by Exposition visitors would be something
alarming were it not that the confection is
harmless.
Then it is proper to be weighed to test
the strength of your arms, to find out your
exact height, and to add to personal knowl-
edge in MANY ways through the agency of
the ever popular 'hnickel-in-the-slot' which,
by the way, is only 'cent-in-the-slot" in
several of the Exposition machines.
The management is trying TO arrange for
National Guards Day very soon.

Hamilton, Pianos and Organs.

Visitors to the Exposition are becoming
accustomed to hearing these three words,
Hamilton, pianos and organs" eehoing
through the air. 1t is so constant that it is
becoming monotonous, but there is, assur-
edlv, reason for it when you consider the
merits of the wonderful musical instru-
ments being displayed at this time. Take,
for instance, the noble Decker Bros, with
their great volume of tone, clear as a bell,
and the delicious, tender Knabe pianos, not
to omit the Estey and New England compa-
MES instruments, and combined with them
the Estey organs, whose fame has spread
over the land, the newer but great Ferrand
and Votey church organs and other favorite
makes of the same class, including the
Clough and Warren, and you have COM
bination that must astonish and delight the
public, and delighted public will talk In
their way the smaller instruments which are
shown in multiplicity of forms are pro-
ducing the same favorable impression. There
is everything, from the great brass horn
down 10 the small mouthorgan, and 'if vari
ETY. is the spice of life you have it without
fail at this exhibit When you have seen
and enjoyed the display betake yourself to
the warerooms, 81 and 93 Fifth avenue, and
SEE the immense amount of instruments of
all kinds, but of superlative worth, gathered
there.

Fishing for Waste Oil.

Petroleum is stopping over at such a rate
at Mcdonald that people living along the
line of Robinson's run and CHARTERS creek
are talking of dammIng the streams to catch
it, as the waste is more than the output of
some wells considered highly valuable
property. Fishermen have already damned
the oil very extensively and say it has
ruined Charters creek for fishing.

Far In Excess OF the Omc1al E6t1mate, huu
1t Grades High.
WINNIPEG, Sept. 10.-The Canadian
Pacific crop report shows that the wheat
harvest closed in many districts, although
in other places about 20 per cent of the
grain is standing. Wheat received all
grade No. 1 hard. Damage by frost is re-
ported from many points, but the damage is
not regarded as great.
A special from Grand Fork, n. D., says
that the Herald has collected crop reports
from so points in North Dakota. The
unanimous opinion is that the yield has
been underestimated, and that the actual
yield from the wheat already threshed Is
% to So bushels an acre, which would make
the crop far in excess of Commissioner of
Agriculture Helgesen's official estimate of
II bushels an acre. About 80 per cent Of
the wheat is cut, and the grade has been
from No. hard to No. 1 Northern. All
correspondents agree that the yield is un-
precedented.

CONvIcTS ON A STRIKE.
A Discharged Prisoner Tells Hard Tales
Against Penitentiary Officials.

Against Penitentiary Officials.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 11.-Thomas
Hart, just discharged from San Quentin
prison, where he served a term of three
years for arson, said to-day that on Wednes-
day $50 convicts employed in the jute mill
refused to work because of the poor food
given them. The men formed in line and
marched out into the yard in an orderly
manner Warden Hale said he would give
them better food and the men went back to
work.
Hart says the convicts are given pound
of meat. The meat given them, he says,
was nearly always purified. Regarding
the alleged conspiracy to break out of
prison, for which seven men are now in
solitary confinement, Hart says officers in
vented the story to avoid having the men
work on the roads near San Rafael, as they
could not be spared from the jute mill.
