BY TIE SURFACE PROCESS,
An Innovation in the Printing of Rev,
nue. Stamps.

nue. Stamps
WASHINGTON, July 26-For the first
time in the history of the bureau of en-
craving and printing the process of surface
printing is being employed on government
work. In the present instance it is only be-
ing app lied to a certain class of revenue
ing notes The experiment was
the outgrowth of the crow ed
condition of affairs at the bureau, but it ha S
been SO successful and economical that it is
doubtful if congress would consent to re-
turn to the old methods. Heretofore the
stamps for tobacco, as well as all stamps
issued by the internal revenue office, have
been printed by the same plate process as
that used for bonds, treasury and bank
notes. 1t is a SLOW and expensive process,
but is employed because of the addition al
protection against counterfelting.
Capt. Meredith is an expert in topographic
printing aud conceived the idea of doing
some OF the steam work by the surface
process. He had plate engraved for the
four-ounce tobacco stamp. Instead, how
ever, of having the design cut intagllo he
had it produced in relief. This enabled
him TO print from the surface on an ordi-
nary press, the steel plate being used in the
same way as a stereotype or electropate
The design embraces vignette, scroll and
lathe work, equally difficult to counterfeit
as though the plate process had been
used in the engraving and printing The
relief plate was put in use on a
stopecylinder Hoe press with a capacity
of l 500 impressions per hour. Specimens
of the work were submitted TO the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury and commissioner Of
internal revenue. Both were satisfied that
10 was a success and authorized the chief of
the bureau to 60 ahead with his innovation.
A little experience in the way of practical
operation developed the fact that not only
had speed been obtained. but the process
would reduce the cost of production more
than One-' enth. 1t is the intention to apply
the Topographic process to revenue STAMPS
of small denomination only. Treasury notes
will be printed as before, and with the work
of the bureau facilitated BY the new depart
ure it will be possible to better the oharac-
ter Of the notes turned out.

WoRra COUNTY GRAPES.
Some Account of the Vineyards in That
Locality.

Locality.
BRUNSWICK, GA, July 26.-An inspec-
ton of the vineyards of Worth county will
prove interesting to any one, whether in
specting for pleasure or to profit by infor-
nation gained thereby. The yield of these
vineyards is SO out of proportion to any
thing Georgians are accustomed to that
they are inclined to be incredulOus, when
they bear stories of the harvest and see
statements of the receipts as taken at ran
dom from several years. crops.
A party Of newspaper men a few days
ago, by invitation of Assistant General
Passenger Agent Augler of the Brunswick
and Western railroad. visited Poulan, the
headquarters and fair grounds of the Worth
County Agricultural Society, near which
the vineyards of Worth, some nineteen in
number, are successfully conducted.
Prominent among these vineyards is the
"Mosselle," owned by Capt. j. G.. McPhaul
and superintendent by DIR. J. f. Wilson,
who also Is overseer generally OF the
majority Of the other vineyards.
The Mosselle codex, twenty acres of
ground, sixteen acres bearing nicely. while
the remaining four will commence next
season.
The varieties grown are many. promi-
nently among them the Concord, Delaware
and Niagara. The vines commence bearing
about the middle of MAY, and the last box
of fruit is generally shipped by Aug l or
one month earlier than the products Of older
grape growing localities.
Eacn acre bears about 4 tons, on which
the grower averages a profit of 1925 or ;
cents per pound.
Every grape on the bunch is used, and
very few punches weigh less than one-half
pound. The greenest and all bruised grapes
are carefully culled from each bunch before
packing, aud these culls are either pressed
into wine or vinegar, while some sell the
green culls for Jelly making purposes.
After returning from the vineyard the
party were given some Information in re-
gard to the land ana climate of Worth, and
the manner in which that section was first
| discovered to be suitable for vineyards.
The land is sandy loan, with good clay
! foundation, very susceptible to fertilizers.
| Until few years ago grape growing was
unknown, but Capt McPhaul's experiment
| proved successful, the vines proved heavy
bearers Of sweet and palatable grapes, and
demonstrated to the people the possibilities
OF their land. AS a consequence Others
took it up, resulting in the
raising of perfect vines that yield
as remarkably that of other
grape growing countries. The climate Of
Worth is similar to that of Santa Clare
county, California, where some of the finest
grapes in the world are produced. The
future of wine interests in Worth is of such
magnitude that it would be idle to attempt
to discuss it instructively within the limits
of this article. IL must be studied on the
ground in order to get even a superficial
idea of its grand prODOrtiOns

But Also Madness for a Poor Widow
and Her Pretty Daughter.
CINCINNATI July 26.-One of the strang-
est cases this city has ever known is now at
tracing wide attention, and hundreds are
visiting the darkened house IN which are
three imprisoned persons. Last Wednesday
neighbors noticed that the windows of
Widow STEMS three-room cottage were
darkened, and the house had the appear
ance of being deserted. No signs of life ap
peared about the house until Monday
when Mrs. Stein was seen peering from
rear door. Some investigation was made,
but nothing definite was done until Yester-
day, when policeman was called. Mrs.
stein answered him from a window. She
declared that evil>minded men were after
her beautiful lS-year-old daug liter, Mary,
and her 9-yeer-old child. 1t is known that
the eldest daughter has been daft for sew
eral weeks, and it was evident that the
mother too had become insane. To-day
many attempts were made to get In the
house by friends and officers, but all at
tempts proved futile.
Tomorrow the doors will be forced
Many people believe this should be Done TO-
night to prevent a possible tragedy. The
girl, who is remarkably pretty became in
sane through Joy. She and her mother
were very poor and for long time lived in
one room. For years they worked fifteen
and sixteen hours a day for tailor shops.
About six weeks ago they were enabled to
secure a cottage of three rooms, and joy at
their improved condition unsettled her
mind. The mother probably became insane
through fear of being separated from her
daughter, to whom she is passionately at
tached. Nothing mas been seen of either
girl, and many fear a tragedy has already
occurred. Mrs. Stein has a revolver and
threatens to shoot any one who attempts to
enter the house.

Its Appearance Near Portland.
PORTLAND, IND, July 25.-The great SER

In moment there was a rushing sound and
we saw the head of monster snake coming
rapidly toward us. Before we could collect
our senses it was within ten feet of one of
the children. My wife the snatched a brand
from the smoldering camp fire and struck
it with all her might.
THE serpent reared It's head at least

land & Co., 900 and 222 California street,
where he was employed as book-keeper.
The suicide was found in wareroom back

He was lying on his back in great pool of
blood, with revolver clutched in his right
hand. The ball had entered at the right
temple and Tassed entirely through TIE head,
causing instant death.
At what time young Rosenberg fred the
shot is not known. but he is supposed to
have committed the deed between 8 and 9
o'clock. He was found by ii. Sinshemer,
member OF the firm, who had been attend
ing meeting. He returned to the office
about 10 O'Clock and found the door open.
All was dark within, though Rosenberg was
at work posting his books when Mr.. Sins

lily he had served for about three years. Mr..
Sinshemer stated that so far as he knew
the young mans accounts were straight.
He kept good company. was steady in his
habits, and had always been trusted in
every way.
When he arrived at the office early last
evening to work on the books he appeared
as jovial and light-hearted as usual, and
was busy with his figures when his em-
ployer left him. He had no family troubles
OF any kind, and his employers are at a loss
to know why he should have killed himself.

Another Break From the Colo.

In Immense Body Of Water Rushing
Into the SaltOn Sink.
Critical Condition Of the Man Shot by an
Unknown Person In the Saloon
at Lancaster.
epecial TO The MORNING CALL.

YUMA, July 15.-Cleone Martinez, a we'll
known cattleman, arrived this evening from
Cocopah placers. Lower California, reports
that an immense body of water is running
through Hardys on the Colorado River into
the desert. Martinez is familiar with that
section and says that should the channel be
cut little deeper the water from the Gulf
OF California will find an entry into the
desert. He reports four other breaks from
the Colorado River, the one of next import
ance being at Algadones. forty-ive miles be-
low Yuma, which is running a big stream of
water by way OF Cooks Wells and Alamo
Mocho into Salton Basin. Martinez passed
Hardys on the Colorado on the 18th and
says all the breaks and crevasses can be re-
paired or shut off by the use of piling and
leyees. he reports scarcely any water flow
ing in the river below Hardys. Some Coco
pah Indians arrived to-day and assert that
the main channel will run through the A.
gadones crevasSe following the edge of the
sandhills flowing through by way of Cooks
into the desert. News of the safe arrival of
Patton, Carter and Rosa on the line of the
railroad, who left here last week by the
river to Salton Lake, was received to-day.
