was putting up what are commercially
known as luncheon CLAIMS. 4 journal rep
reSentative was present and inspected the
manner of canning. Near the thirty horse
power boiler is an iron retort that Will hold
ten bushels of CLAIMS. The retort looks like
the Shell of a large square safe. The CLAIMS
are placed III large trays and piled one above
the other in the retort. Steam is turned on
and the CLAIMS cooked from twenty to TWEEN
ty-five minutes. From the retort they 90 to
a long table, where young women deftly re-
move them from the shells and drop them
into clean tin trays. The shells are thrown
into barrels. The So-called head is removed
when the CLANS are thoroughly washed.
They are then placed in the cans with melt
ed butter, sealedup and bathed. This is, in
brief, the operation. The CLAIMS are nicely
cook ed, clearly put up, and must make a
tempting luncheon. Mr.. Lawton will run
on CLAIMS for several weeks putting them up
in the manner described and IN plain clam
water.
He has a contract with Arthur Bailey &
Co. Boston, who will take all he can put up.
The CLAIMS canned Tuesday came from Isles

Suspicion Against Lizzie Growing

FALL RIVER. Mass. Aug. 27.-The
testimony in the Borden murder trial
was continued today before an increas-

oped beyond the time of Bridget Sulli-
vans going and coming was that Miss
Lizzie Borden was in the upper part of
the house, near her mothers room. when
Mr.. Borden returned home and entered.
1t has been proved beyond question that
the Borden home life was not all that
would be expected in family whose
debts were paid, and whose wealth was
more than half a million.

who for the most part lived in their
rooms and said nothing of their going
and coming. All these things are being
discussed and are being commented on
as giving strength to the governments

Since the close of today's testimony
there has been greatdeal of talk about

New York Recorder Aug 81.
The Bureau of Public Comfort of the
Columbian Exposition have Just con-
cluded contract with the representa-
tiyeS of the Remington Standard Type
writer by which the latter are awarded
the exclusive privilege of furnishing
typewrterS for pablo use during the
exposition.
The Bureau will have under their
control five buildings, which are to be
entirely devoted to the comfort and con-
venlence of worlds fair visitors. The
writing rooms of these buildings are to
be furnished with Remlngtons, in
charge of expert operators, whose sery-
ices will be available TO any one who
desires them upon payment of small
fee. Machines and operators will also
be furnished at any other points about
the grounds where the public conven-
fence may seem to require them. Doubt
less many Of the state buildings will be
similarly equipped.
The use of the typewriter has now be-
come so general. and the Remington is
so universally regarded as the standard
machine, that such an arrangement can
not fail to serve the public convenience
admirably. Over 100 Remingtons are
already in the service of the Worlds
Fair Commission in their own work, and
this arrangement is the natural result
of the excellent work done by this ia
vOrite machine. The contract is large
one, which could only be successfully
undertaken by a concern having the

zatlon possessed by the Remington

Inauguration OF Move to revive
Iron Hall.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 27.-AnOther i'm
portant chapter was added to Iron Hall
history today. Since the appointment of
areceiver almost every train has brought
to this city representatives of the Iron
Hall in other cities sent here to see
what was best to be done. Among the
arrivals was E. j. Deckert, of New Or
leans, who still believes n the princi-
Piles of the order. He at once called
several conferences OF members. and
tonight statement was formul ated
calling meeting in this city Sept. IL of
delegates of every Iron Hall branch in
the country.
The object is to reorganize the Iron
Hall by electing new set of supreme
officers and then appealing to the court
to set aside the receivership on the
ground that there is su fficient money to
pay off matured obligations, and
that receiver was appointed
because the order was being mis-
not solvent. There are calculations on
radical change in the constitution and
laws of the order, and for the removal
of the old officers. Mr.. Deckert says
that if the members get together in a
delegate body the order can be relieved
from its present state, and the court
will have to set aside the receivership.
