How : Town eet Il. Farny Nam..


That thriving settlement, Tpperusaiem
City, o. T., has curious name, and an
even more curious history. Tipperusalem
was founded last year by Timothy p.
Grady and Col. H. M. Kaufman, upon
whose holdings it was built. Now, Mr..
Tim Grady Is a steadfast Irishman, while
Col. Kaufman is proud Of an ancestry
which followed Moses to the Promised
Land. Mr.. Grady wanted to call the new
city after his old home-Tipperary.
Col. Kaufman was equally anxious to
name it Jerusalem. A squabble resulted,
and for time it seemed as though the
town was going to be divided into two
distinct municipalities. Finally, how
ever, a settlement was effected. Young
Pat Grady fell in love with Rebecca Kauf-
mann, and through their interference the
old men shook hands and agreed to COM
promise matters by calling the place
Tipperusalem." Thus it will remain un-
til some fool-ordinance people come
along and change it.-Brandon Bucksaw.

BERLIN, Sept. 1.-THE Empress
gave birth to daughter 1t haif-past 3
o'clock yesterday morning. Her nc.
couchment took place at the palace at
Potsdam. This daughter Is the It'll
child bornto the Empcrorand Empress.
The Emperor is now presumably re-
lieved from anxiety as to the peculiar
prophecy on the subject by Catholic
monk brought recently to his attention.
The record Of the prophecy was found
in the Prnssian archives. 1t was made
centuries ago, and runs substantially
as follows
After receiving mortal blow from
conquerer who shall come from the
West (supposed to be Napoleon D, the
German Empire shall be erected again
two generations later by a monarch Of
a new dynasty Emperor William y,
who will live to 4 great age. rule long,
and owing to the wisdom of his gov,
eminent be beloved by all his subjects.
He will be followed BY monarch who
viii have but short reign Emperor
Frederick) and the latter will be fol.
lowed by third monarch, who will
have seven sons, none Of whom vii,
ascend the throne.
This prophecy is said to have taken
a peculiar hold upon the Emperor's
imagination, and he fears that by be.
coming the father of the seventh son
lie will fulfill its conditions.

old Edge Tools.

The pride Of the people OF the present
age, based upon the belief that we have
outstripped the Old World in the arts and
sciences, receives another shock. A man
whose desire for the truth led him to
spend two years in tomb at Gizeh,
Egypt, is said to have secured evidence
which proves that 1000 years ago tools
used in cutting stone had jeweled edges
similar to those used at the present day.
Solid and tubular tools were used by the
builders OF the Pyramids, and saws,
which were supposed to be modern, were
used in those days, both straight and cir
cular. There was evidence in some pieces
Of granite that drill had sunk one-tenth
of an inch at every revolution, and that
the pressure to accomplish this must
have been at least two tons. 1t is sug-
gested that as diamonds were exceedingly
rare in those days, perhaps corundum
was used as points for the tools.-B Boston
Journal.

"I'li Just take that bel, said Jones in =
hopeless voice, and ! turned over and
went to sleep, while he walked the room
all night.
The next morning at breakfast Jones
dropped his knife. Later on he tipped
over his salt again. Then he fell down
the steps as We started away, and finally
tore his coat on protruding nail in the
gate.

cnn,I BE Lauphed Ont.

Thefree trade newspapers have heard
with undisguised satisfaction OF the
forced sale Of a little tin plate plant in
Anderson, Indiana, which began opera
tions shortly after the passage OF
the Mckinley act They have been
making much of the fact that there
never was much OF this plant, seeing
that it employed "only four men and
as many girls and boys" and did no
more than dip the plates.
Well, here were eight Americans en-
ployed in this little concern-just eight
more than were employed in the tin
plate industry in this country before
the passage of the Mckinley act. Wasn't
that distinct gain to eight wage-earn-
ers, to Anderson and to the country?
Some OF the greatest industries in
this country have had smaller begin
nings; for example, the Disston saw
works of Philadelphia Henry Diss-
ton made his saws unaided and ped
died them in a wheelbarrow. Before
he died he gathered town about his
works in the suburbs OF Philadelphia.
In and about Wheeling we have seen
blast furnaces, rolling mills and nail
factories go to forced sale, but nobody
ever thought to draw from this the in
ference that blast furnaces, rolling
mills and nail factories are preposter-
Gus in the United States.
In the effort to establish the tin plate
industry in the United States there may
be more than one failure involving the
employment OF eight persons direct
aud these failures may result from in
sulicient knowledge OF the business

Hard Lines for the Free Traders,

The other day the INTEILIeENoER re-
marked that "the whole tariff contro-
versy turns on this question OF wages"
The Register comes back quoting Mr..
A. W. Campbell as stating that it is a
matter Of population alone" Mr..
Campbell has said nothing of the sort.
He did not once mention the tariff in
the letter which has filled the Register
with so much "ghoulish glee."
5 Taking 1t for granted that "all Eu-
rope will continue to flock to our
Shores" Mr.. Campbell expressed the
opinion that some time in the next
century West Virginia will be as dense-
" populated as Germany land the con-
ditions If life In that event will be much
the same as they are" in Germany.
This is very far from warrauting the
liberty the Register takes in putting
words in Mr.. CampbelPs mouth.
Even the unfair paraphrase Of Mr..
Campbell's language does not establish
the Registers point. Before that can be
done the Register would have to show
that because hours are long, wages low
aud living high in Germany, that coun'
try had sought to improve the coudi,
tion Of It's people by knocking down the
barriers Of protection and letting the
products Of all the world come in to
compete freely with the products OF
German labor.
Audit would have to show that the
conditions attending denser popula-
ton Of our own country would be inn
proved by letting in on even terms the
products OF the long hours and poor
wages Of German producers and all

from bad management, fromlack Of cap
ital, from the determination of the
Welsh manufacturer TO hold the Ameri-
can market at any cost-may result
from any Of the causes which bring
failure IN manufacturing and in trad
ing. These incidents will not prove
that we cannot and do not make tin
plate In the United States.
Following the sheriff's sale Of the lit
tie establishment in Anderson the IN
rEtLIaEScER has a letter from the
American Tin Plate company, whose
works are located at Elwood, also in In
diana, where it has a large Investment

pany writes under date, August IL:
ave have accepted orders since the
first of the month for nearly 10000
boxes Of tin. assorted coke. charcoal
and ternes, and we are fully able to
make the shipments as we have
agreed to-"
The struggling days of the American
tin plate industry are not over; but the
industry has come to stay and cannot
be laughed out. The Democratic party
would drive it out if ii had the chance,
but it will not get the chance.
