the prospects OF the shipment Of a large
part, or all OF the 25,O0OO0O bushels Of
coal now lying in Pittsburgh harbor.
River mon had almost given up
hopes of rise in the rivers before
February, but the rains of yesterday
and last night give promise Of enough
water for a good shipment, the first in
many months. At present there is
more coal tied up hero than has ever
accumulated in one place before. The
shipment of this coal to the south
would mean the placing in circulation
OF many thousands Of dollars in this
city and the employment OF thousands
OF idle men.

1t may create some surprise that we
regard the dance as the earliest form Of
art, or even that we allow IL any place
among the flne arts. To many it may seem
10 kind of sacrilege to combine in the same
category, however broad, such extremes as
Il dancing savage and painting of the last
and il the connection must be
made some woald choose to make 1t along
other lines than those OF art. But in truth
the dance supplies us with the key, SO to
speak, of the development of the fine arts.
For light upon the problems of human cul-
turc we naturally appeal to the anthropolo-
gist.
Dancing" says Tyler, may seem to us
modern frivolous amusement, but in the
infancy of civilization it was full of pas.
sionate and solemn meaning, Savages and
barbarians dance their joy and sorrow, their
love and rage, even their magic and re.
Iligion. The forest Indians of Brazil, whose
sluggish temper few other excitcments can
stir, rouse themselves at their moonlight
gatherings, when, rattle in hand. they
stamp in one.two-three round the great
earthen pot of intoxicating kawl liquor, or
men and women dancing a rude counting
dance, advancing in lines with n kind of
primitive polka step, or the ferocious war
dance is performed by armed warriors in
paint, marching in ranks hither and thither
with growing chant terrible to hear"
Tyler proceeds to describe the dance Of
the Australians and the buffalo dance of
lMandan Indians, who, wearing masks to
mark their representations, with rude songs
and pantomimic gestures, enact their inci-
dents Of an imaginary hunt. And then he
adds:
IAN this explains how in ancient re-
ligons dancing came to be one of the chief
acts OF worship. Religious professions went
with song and dance in tho Egyptian
temples, and Plato said that all dancing
ought to be thus an act of religion. Pop

Hitherto the process in brushmaking of
punching the bristles and drawing them
into the holes has been performed by hand.
A machine of peculiar ingenuity has just
been invented for this purpose, the bristles
being contained in a hopper, where they
rest horizontally Mt kght angles on the top
of u disk, which by means of n treadle is
caused to partially rotate, first in one di-
Irection and then in the other, The disk
has notch formed in its periphery, and as
the notch passes under the bristles some of
them enter into the Notch; before the disk
returns, a plate Joined to the disk is moved
and closes the mouth Of the notch, the disk
then comes back and carries away the tuft
of briste retained in the notch to position
from which it can readily be taken by the
fingers of the operative
1 The whole arrangement is that of n peck
err or gripper and can be regulated accord
ing to the quantity of the material re-
quired to fill the hole. the operative passing
the wire through the hole by means of a
special needle fitted to clamp which is
held in the right hand the loop being au-
Dramatically formed. Into this loop the OPP
orator passes the tuft of bristles, pulls the
wire and thus draws the bristles into the
Ihole.-New York Sun.

are seeing the very same al

to the echo, and Gentleman JIM was
treated as real hero.
