Plate Glass.

The cast plate glass of which mirrors,
shop windows, etc., are made, is pre-
pared from the whitest sand, broken
plate glass, soda, small proportion of
lime and a much smaller amount Of man
ganese and cobalt oxides. The glass
when peri ectly melted is poured upon an
iron table of the size required, and the
thickness is regulated by strip of iron
placed down each of the four sides of the
table Immediately after it is poured
out the molten substance is fattened
down by an iron roller, which lowers the
glass to the thickness of the strips at the
sides. It is then annealed or tempered
for several days, after which it is ground
perfectly level and polished to transpar'
emit briliancy.-Detroit Free Press.

PROGRESS,

He led the van of Progress till he stood
Upon the height he oft had hoped to gain,
While far below him rolled the human
food
So far below he feared his labor vain:
Yet slowly onward poured the mighty
stream,
While he the leader, sat him down to dream.
1.-THE world is slow" he said, ''the pathway
hard,
Yet have reached the goal; the path is
made,
And I am weary, bruised, torn, and
SCARED"
Then closed his eyes within the pleasant
shade,
And as the worlds great army nearer crept.
Beside the hard won goal the leader slept.
at length he woze-adown the mountain
slope
Were spread the tents and shadows of the
night;
Alone he stood-bereft of Love and Hope
For far beyond him, on a distant height,
The army upward toiied. His work was
done,
While he had slept had greater heights been
won.

wounded, arrived there this afternoon and
relate an exciting story of the burning of

BROWNS VALLEY (Minn.). April 49,
Trouble is brewing between the filers and

question at issue is whether the sqatters got
possession before the filings were made.

who were among the first IN line, passed
through here and entered the reservation.

squat.ers TO reach the points on which the

their filings were completed; therefore, they
propose 10 have the land on which they
filed. They can't get it without a fight. and
it may be only few days before a collision
takes place.

work; hundreds of acres are already broken
and flax sown. Many are putting in corn,
and hope TO make enough this season TO
cover expenses of proving up.

BURIED BULLION.
Treasure Valued at Millions Ineites the
French Against Dahomey.

LONDON, April 1s.-The Globe publishes
letter from correspondent who, the
paper says, Is well informed as 10 the mat
ter upon which he writes. giving an ex-
planatlon OF the preparations now being
made by France for war upon Dahomey.
The letter does not bear out the semi-official
statements that France has no intention
whatever of conducting military operations
In the interior of Dahomey, confining her.
self solely to defending the possessions In
the Blight OF Benin, Porto Novo and
Kotonou.
The correspondent says it is believed on
good grounds that immense treasure, the
accumulation of upward of two centuries,
is buried in Abomey, the capital of Da-
honey. Allowing largely for exaggera-
tons, this treasure. the writer declares, is
said to be worth a sum equivalent to JOO.-
100000 francs. 1t is known the successive
kings of Dahomey have buried vast quanti-
ties OF bullion within the precincts of the
palace In a number of large pits. 10 or
more OF which are said to contain gold and
silver to the amount of several millions of
francs each.
Authentic reports of the existence of this
treasure reached the French through mis-
sionaries and traders. and this readily ac-
counts ior the eagerness displayed by the
French to capture Abomey. The attempt,
poned for various reasons, but now that
the French Senate and Chamber of Depu-
ties have voted credit for the purpose,
preparations are to be made in earnest for
the march on Dahemey.
The French Parliament few days ago

settlements, had withdrawn northward.

Flatterirg Eroomiums on the Americas

Flatterirg Ercomiums on the American
Labor Question and the Ladies'
NEW YORK, April 1S.-Paul Deschanel. a
young member of the French Chamber Of
Deputies, who was sent to this country q
few months ago by the Government to in
vestigate the coalition ana development OF
labor organizations and labor ques iions
generally i'll the United States, said to re-
porter: THE American laboring classes
are far better paid. better fed, better
clothed, better taught and happier than
those of France, and still more 90 than
those OF other countries of Europe.
1t is almost discouraging to me to have
to 20 back to my country and paint q pic
ture in my report which shows such coz
trast between the condition of things in
America aud in France. Why, the perfec-
tion of labor organizations here Is yearS-I
may say dozens of years-in advance Of
anything dreamed Of in France. The point
which has been impressed upon me is that
the American laborlng classes owe their
sEccesS and present power and comfort n OF
TO any legislation in their favor but to their
own Independent efforts.
Perhaps the city where / seemed to feel
most at home, and where the atmosphere
was most like that of Paris, was San Fran
cisco. That is the city i could live in for
ever and die happy. The climsts is perfect
and the women are simply divine. / never
saw so many pretty women in my life as
did In the streets of San Francisco | sup
pose there are homely women there, as
there are all over the world, but / certainly
did not see any of them"
