Bronze Powder Making.

Nearly a hundred establishments are
engaged in the manufacture of bronze
powder in and near the cities of Furth and
Nuremberg, Germany. tits composed Of
"copper" tin, zinc and antimony melted
in proper proportions and cast first into
rods of half an inch in diameter and
about three feet long, these rods being
rolled until about two inches wide and
then cut into suitable lengths for ham
ding. The pieces go to the hammers,
where they are beaten into very small
fraction of their former thickness, and
are then taken to sulphuric acid bath,
where each sheet is washed to remove
all impurities, rust and dirt.
After being thoroughly dried the
sheets are again hammered by steam
hammers until no further reduction is
possible, there being limit to which
machinery can be used. Up to this
stage the treatment which the metal re-
ceives, whether intended for powder or
metal leaf, is Identical, but now the
process changes. If designed for metal
leaf, the further beating is done by hand,
but if for bronze powder the sheets go
to the shears, where they are cut up into
small particles and become known as
clippings. These are now ready for the
stamp mills, which are run in batteries.
enabling one man to run or attend 90 OF
more. When sufficiently pulverized, the
powder is sifted in a special manner, the
heavier and better qualities going to one
recentacla and the inferior grades to an
other.-New York Sun.

British India.

Great Britain has been stretching her
wings over India. In 1842 she laid claim
to $4,000 squares miles of that coun-
try. She made additions to this every
year except 1843, 1916 and 1862, down to
1856, when her possessions aggregated
$4,000 square miles. Advances were
made in 1866, 1882 and 1886, and now
the area of India under British rule is
927,SS7 square miles. British India Is
larger than all that part of the United
States lying east of the Mississippi river
and its population five times as great as
the present population of this whole
country Great Britain may not be able
to acquire much more of India. Indeed
there is likely to be difficulty in retain
ing what she has with native dissatisfac-
ton and the watchfulness of her aggra-
waiting enemy on the north, who in the
last 40 years has moved his boundaries
over many degrees of latitude. Texas

HOAxlNG A CANDIDATE.

An Illiterate Political Aspirant Is Made
the Butt of Cruel Joke.
M. Robinet, the illiterate candidate
for parliament, who went round Paris
blowing a hunting horn in order to call
attention to his electoral programme,
was nearly stoned to death in the Troca-
dero district, owing to the hoax of which
he was made victim by facetious
printer. The candidate, having resolved
to go about as sandwich man." OBJ
tanned two boards and commissioned a
printer to ornament them with an elab-
crate political address in the largest type.
The compositor, taking advantage of
NJ Robinet's inability to read or write,
drew up the address, COUGHING it in the
most unparliamentary language at his
command. 1t was, in fact, composed of
an issue of the vilest insults to the local
electors, while the candidate himself
was not spared by the irrepressible
hoaxer. Hardly had M. Robinet ap-
peared in public between his boards
than he was followed by crowd of
people who threatened to lynch him.
Some threw stones at the man, but he
found few sympathizers who evident
ly saw through the joke and defended
him.
A free fight ragged for few moments
around the candidate, his friends and
his foes energetically plying their fists
and sticks, while Robinet looked on in
tensely amazed at the tumult. He was
finally extricated from his perilous posi-
ton by the police. Telegraph.

STREET SPRlNKLING.

The board of public works met at
two O'Clock this afternoon and made
an assessment for the seasons street
sprinkling. The total assessment was
S1,SS5, which is slighply more than
last year, but as more territory has
been covered the cost to each individu-
al is the same The board levied five
cents for each front foot wherever
sprinkling has been done, which would
be 81. 10 a lot on Front street and So. 30
lot in the residence portion. On
corner lots, besides the frontage as.
sessment there was levied five cents a
foot for fifty feet on the side. Last
year one-half the depth of the lot was
assessed, so there is a saving for
owners of corner lots. The assessment
covers the cost of sprinkling up to
Nov 1st. If any sprinkling is done
after that time the expense must
come out of the general fund. All
but three of the stand pipes have been
closed for the winter.

Jack Baker was recently examined in an
important case on the western circuit.
Counsel found it extremely difficult to ex-
tract the whole truth from him. At last
the lawyer, losing patience, exclaimed,
"Why, Mr. Baker, do you prevaricate so
much?" Jack, supposing he referred to his
peculiar manner of utterance, convulsed
the court and audience by replying indig-
nantly, Il would like to know how fell
low can help prevaricating when he has

SCHILLING'S rlINSTRkLS.

Chas. E. Schilling, of musical fame,
has something new to spring on the
public every year. This season he be-
lieves he has eclipsed his own record
and has gathered together the best
show he has ever owned. Among the
surprises this season the 'King Sol
onions Court" first part takes first
place. TIE settings and decorations
are the most elaborate ever used by
any minstrel organization, and the
costumes have never been surpassed
by any comic opera or spectacular
production, most of them having been
imported and will bear the closest in
SpectiOn. Particular attention has
been devoted to the vocal and instru-
mental portion of the entertainment
and no expense has been spared to
make it all that could be desired. AT

lately. AS matter of fact there is
practically no diphtheria in the city
and what little there has been has
been stamped out. Under such q
state of affairs it seems to US far bet
ter to take the world into our conf

than to give it out that we have some
thing here which we are desperately
anxious shall not reach the ears o.
outsiders. This invariably arouse'
suspicion and gives rise to rumor'
that have no foundation in fact, Man

band, Charles Mrose. They were mar
ried April 9th, 1888, at Hankens
buettel, Prussia, and now reside in

which divorce is asked is cruel and
inhuman treatment. The complaint
alleges several instances of such
treatment during the past three
years and alleges that yesterday
Mrose drove the plaintiff from her
home and tJld her never to return.
1t also alleges that Mrose has never
adequately provided for her support
and that her parents have partially
supported her. There are two children,
three and five years old, and the
plaintiff asks for the custody of these.

real property and for alimOny for
the support of herself and children.

side, rest the mortal remains of Nancy
Hanks Lincoln, mother Of the martyred

his residence from one village to another

carried bottle Of the liquor of the coun-

Next came "a maid of honor, bearing a
huge basket Of household goods and chat
tells and smoking the everlasting pipe Of
peace the while" She was followed by
the prime minister, leading the chiefs
pig, to whom succeeded the chiefs wife,
clad in divided skirt Of kuld cloth and
wearing the royal amber necklace.
The chief himself came next. He wore
a red helmet, two flannel shirts, an even
ing dress coat and waistcoat-the latter
being arranged outside the coat--and q
garment Of Lushai cloth. The trousers
belonging TO the dress suit were grace
fully thrown over the left shoulder. A
