with the plans and methods Of the
American Society for tho Extension Of
University Teaching, OF Philadelphia.
Fees have been arranged, being $50 for
n course Of any six lectures selected
from the schedule. Tho members ofthe
organization arc professors OF the uni
vcrsity and members OF tho expert
mental station stall. Ii the movement
meets with success tho present course,
being only temporary, will be enlarged
on, and new members will be taken into
tho organization. Copies Of tho lcctur-
er's syllabus will be furnished at any OF
the local ccnters where courses are do.
livcrcd. The different courses will be
illustrated with stcreopticon views.
The leading ball OF tho season was
given last night by the gentlemen in
honor OF tho ladies OF Morgantown.
The ball was given in tho municipal
building, and music was furnished by
tho Kramer band, OF Wheeling.
This evening tho members OF the Co.
lumbar Literary Society gave n very
interesting special programme to 4
large audience. It is the custom OF the
literary societies hero TO give n or
two such performances during each
school year. The performances are al
ways Of the best character, being often
equa! to those delivered onthc evening
oil the inter.socicty contest.
The commandant OF cadets now hay
ing no other work than the instruction
in military tactics, has been given 4
separate Office. Tho room formerly
used rs the university book store is now
devoted to hat purpose. 1t has been
very neatly fitted up with chairs and
ucshs lol tilc use VI lHc COLlIllIiIu'tHt
and members OF his staff.
Prof. |. G. White went to Wayne
county this week TO investigate tho coal
fields along thG'line OF l. new railroad
that is o o TO be built through that
county.
The now creamery building is pro-
crossing slowly in the work OF construc-
ton. The farmers now have charge OF
the creamery industry here, and they
are putting up this-buildinS in order
that they may move the machinery
from the state property at the expert
mental station. IKE g:ltc formerly had
charge OF the work, but hereafter it will
be entirely in the hands OF the farmers.
1t is expected hat n new industry in
the shape of a tannery will soon be
started here. Some Pennsylvania capt.
talists have purchased some land south
OF Morcantown and expect soon to
commence the word OF constructing q
large tannery building.

The senatorial discussion has been on
now four weeks and the result has been
u free expression OF the press. 1t shows
an overwhelming sentiment in favor OF
returning John Sherman. All forms Of
expressions, such as naming preference
onpapers. straw votes at public meet
ings and OF clubs, give a preponderancc
OF two to one, and in many cases ten to
one, for Sherman. No exception to this
anywhere has come under our obscrva-
ton, and the trial has been made, as in

Ing death, unwilling TO remain longer

improvements in Rolled Steel.

A protracted series of experiments
made at Siemens' works, in England,
with the new process of manufacturing
steel tubes, show conclusively, it is
claimed, a remarkable adaptation of the
system to the manufacture Of pipes for
the conveyance of water, gas and air at
high pressure, the manufacture of steam
boilers, boiler tubes, and especially for
bridge construction, owing to the light
ness and strength of the tubes of COM
paratively thin steel, and which, it is be-
lieved, will enable the engineer of the
future to Observation-Disclosures the spar
of bridges.
The simple as we'll as remarkable pc
culiarity of this process of shaping
metals consists in the fact that, instead
of avoiding any twist of the fbers, it by
operation gives the greatest possible
twist to the fiber with a corresponding
stretch Of material. It moreover may,
assisted by a mandrel, increase the outer
diameter of a bar, instead of diminishing
it, as do all other rolling mills, but the
tube produced by this new method is
generally greater in diameter than the
bar from which it is formed, and thus
combining, as it does, all the various
systems Of rolling, it is claimed to pos
sess the advantage of a construction in
which all hitherto known rolling proc
esses represent a part.-New York Sun.

A. c~a1iforni. mining Cam in ,4e.

The gambling tents were large, and
contained not only gaming tables but
billiard tables. At one Of these | was
once playing billiards with aman named
H. A few feet from Us, raised upon
a platform made for the purpose, were
seated three Mexican musicians, playing
guitars; for these places were always
well supplied with instrumental music.
The evening seldom passed without dis
putes, and pistols were quickly drawn to
settle quarrels. Upon any outbreak men
would rush from all parts of the room,
struggling to get as a as possible to
the scene of action, and often they paid
the penalty for their curiosity by being
accidentally shot.
While H and | were engaged in
our game we could hear the m~enotonous
appeal Of the dealers, Make your game,
and black loses" Suddenly bang, bang,
bang went the pistols in a distant part
of the tent. The usual rush followed.
Bang, bang, again, and this time the
guitar dropped from the hands Of one of
the unoffending musicians, who fell for
ward to the ground with a bullet through
his neck. His friends promptly under
took to carry him past Us to the open
air. Our table was so near the side Of
the tent that only one person at a time
could go between it and the canvas.
H was standing in the way, just
in the act Of striking the ball with his
cue, when one of the persons carrying
the wounded man touched him, with the
request that he move to one side. He
turned, and saw the Mexican being sup
ported by the legs and arms, the blood
flowing from his neck. Then, with the
coolest Indifference, he said, "Hold on,
hold on, boys, till l make this shot,"
Then, resuming his former position, he
deliberately finished his shot.-Dr. G. B.
Gillespie in Century.

To Do Away with Exercise.

Too much dumbbell exercise is a weari.
ness to the flesh, and matutinal swing
ing Of the Indian club becomes, sooner
or later, irksome. The idea of relieving
the tedium of daily exercise while in
creasing its benefits is a good one, and
it is now placed at the service of the
public in a practical form. A polished
wooden box contains the appliances in
cidental to the ordinary exercising ma
chine, and is equipped, in addition, with
a magneto-electro apparatus capable OF
transmitting an electric current to ten
or more persons at the same time, or be-
ing graduated to the endurance Or pleas
ure Of II person, so that while the vari-
Gus forms Of exercise are being gone
through an electric current of any re-
quired strength can be impaired.
1t is claimed that electricity can thus
be applied under improved and more
pleasant conditions than formerly in
many cases where its use has been
proved to be most beneficial. Attention
isScalled to the fact that telegraph op-
orators, accountants, typewriters, plan
lists, and all whose work is apt to cause
muscular pains and stiffness in the hand
and arm,c can by the use Of this exercis-
ing machine reap a twofold advantage.
The machine has a bath attachment.
This is placed in a bath, and when the
foot is placed upon it an electric shock
of graduated strength is impaired to the
bather.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

THE AGONY Is OVER.

The election was held yesterday-seV-
| eral elections were held and the results
are not obtainable to day-it always
being just about opposite to first reports.
1t is fair to presume, however, that
FLOWER has been elected in New York,
and that he will be governor. MCkIN-
LEY has been elected governor OF Ohio
they say-and the republicans Will yell
themselves hoarse over the fact that the
Infamous tariff bill made him popular.
The other states had no particular
contest-that is, nothing much was at
stake.
Thousands and thousands OF dollars
changed hands; men in high places bet
thousands at a time-and while it is
nothing but gambling, no arrests will be
made. 1t has been held by the Supreme
court Of every state that a man is only
guilty of gambling when he loses his
money on a bob tailed flush.
Now that "the smoke Of battle has
cleared away" and We use the smoke SEN
tence without claiming it as our own
we hope the business will be resumed Of
becoming ~neighborly, and that the mud
mills in close districts will cease TO throw
their product.
