American Tin.
living.

There are three classes of men who
oppose the manufacture of tin-plates
in this country" remarked a dealer in
tin cans, ''the British tin plate manu-
facturer, the Eastern importer of tin
plates and the free-trade newspapers
and orators This Is an interesting
trinity, in which the third party works,
in the interest of the first two. whose
Interests are foreign, against those
whose interests are American. These
elements are laboring to prevent the
building up of an extensive tin-plate.
Industry in this country. The British
hostility is natural; it has been monop-
olizing the tin-plate industry of the
world for years,t to It's great advantage,
and it naturally desires to continue
that sort Of thing The importers in
the Eastern cities, now organized
under the name of tin-plate consumers
which is misleading, handle the British
tln.plates and share the prof of that
monopoly. OF course, they will lose
these profits w>en the tin and terne
plates used in this country are pro.
duced in Indiana, Illin bis, Ohio, and
other States and sold direct to the tim
can manufacturers and the jobbers.-

Fishermen in the Dumps.

According to the Pennsgrove Record
which oughE to be an authority in
such matters, ''the sturgeon fishermen
have the blues as they report it fact
(and not a biuff), that the wholesale
dealers in caviar say they cannot sf-
ford to give over SO a keg. Year be-
fore last $40 per keg was received and
last year $25 to $50. Max AIMS has
several hundred kegs of last years
crop and his shipments to Germany
have been at a loss. Roe cannot be
put up for $40 a keg and some think it
will not pay to fish this year. The
dealers and fishermen will have a
meeting in Philadelphia next week."
There seems to be no redress except
through a combine" which the fish
ermen ought not be slow In organizing.
That will cure the evil if anything.

of whom are now dead but the three
named. His parents were William
and Elizabeth McGear. He was born
Sept. Goth 1886, in house which stood
on the corner of Vine and Fayette

His boyhood days were spent here
pretty much as those of the rest of the
community; he went to the public

ACADEMY on B2nk street.
He learned the trade of carpenter
under the late David N. F. Randolph,
anarchitect and builder of prominence,

THE NEW BUILDING.
A Fine Church Edifice Nearly
Finished.

The members of the Laurel Hill M.
P. Church are justly proud of their
handsome new church edifice on North
Laurel street, now that it is nearing
completion, and in one more week will
be ready for dedication to public wor-
chip.
The official members and building
committee, coupled with the earnest
members and congregation, have per-
severed when great obstacles were in
the way. moved forward when it
seemed as il some almost relentless
force was endeavoring to impede pro-
gress, and now, as g crowning result
of earnest labors, the handsome
church edidce stands in the place of
the little structure, where these good
people worshipped for SO many years.
The new building is a frame struc-
ture of Gothic design, much given to
points and pinnacles. A corner tower
s. feet high will accommodate large
bell, which will ring out the glad, JOY
GUS welcome on the Sabbath day.
Another and smaller tower connects
the church building with the parson-
age, the whole presenting a fine front
on Laurel street.
The seating capacity of the audi
torium is five hundred and fifty, but
when the glass doors which connect
the other rooms are raised, fully eight
hundred people can assemble in one
great congregation. There is no gal
lery.
The pulpit is located on the South
side of the auditorium, and it faces
many semi-circular seats. The win
dows are exceedingly artistic and Or
namental. The main window in the
front Of the church Is an allegorical
design. The walls are sand finished
aud the ceiling is wood work, finished
in oils. The building is heated by two
large heaters which are In the base
ment of the church.
The architect is Phillip AIMS, and
the work when entirely completed will
cost about $4,000
The building will be dedicated on
Sunday next with appropriate services
and ceremonies. President Appelgit,
Of the M. P. Conference, will be here.

Five surveys Reported to Have
Been WaGe of Routes Passing
YhrOugh This GfiY.

Will tae Baltimore & OHIO r. ilroad
Company extend road into this city
and through it to Cape May2
This question has been subject of
discussion for the last year or two, and
there he's been much doubt aud incre-
dulity manifested as to its probability.
Report comes to US from what ap-
pears to be reliable sources, that the
B. 81 o. are, and have been for some
time. taking active measures towards
the construction of their road as in.
dicated.
For some days civil engineer has
been looking around in this section,
and whenIhe got through and had left
he began to talk.
He stated that five surveys of routes
had been quietly made by expert en-
giueers of the B. g. O., road; that
they were made down the Delaware
shore, tapping Salem and across to
this city; that the routes ran through
this city south of Vine street, and
crossingithe river, extended on to Mill
vile on the south side of the turnpike.
He gave 1t out that the road would ex-
tend to Cape May, and would be COM
pleted inside of two years.
With the two great systems, the
Pennsylvania and the Philadelphia
and Reading, now practically in con-
troll of all the railroads in New Jersey,
it is not to be wondered at that the
powerful Baltimore and Ohio will go
to great lengths to get into a position
for competition in the immense traffic
which is now controlled by the other
two great companies.
There is no doubt but that the peo-
pie along the lines proposed will well
come the B. & o., with open arms.
