DIR. HULBUHD ~ PHILADELPHIA.



The Rev. Merritt Hulburd, d. D., pas.
tor OF Grace Church, spent Sunday in
Philadelphia.
In the afternoon he taught the Sun
day.school lesson for John Wanna
makers Bible Onion of Bethany Pres
byterian Church, Most of the 1895
members were present, besides goodly
number of visitors. The flight into
Egypt was the subject Of DR.. Hulburd's
discourse, and he dwelt with much en-
phasts on the action of Mary in taking
the Saviour into Egypt in obedience
to the divine decree. In speaking
Of the perils and protection Of
children he said: God only
knows how many are the physical
perlls that beset Il little child. But
there are countless other perils that
manifest themselves at every step in the
spiritual path Of the child's life, for the
spiritual foes seek to get possession Of
the young ores ut all times and in all
places. The speaker then earnestly
e&horted parents TO do all in their power
TO Keep the children in the right path.
"for, said he, sit is n difficult under
taking to have them return to the
heavenly way Wnen once switched oil.
Dr. Hulburd closed his discourse BY be-
sccching his hearers to mind the chill
dren, listen to Gods voice and teach
them what He tells you"
During the morning and evening DR..
Hulburd filled the pulpit of Spring
Garden Street Methodist Episcopal
Church, of which he was pastor Just
before he came to this city Following
out the plan formulated by him during
his pastorate in Philadelphia to hold
union services of various congregations
while the pastors of those congregations
were upon their vacations, members of
the First Baptist Church, Of the Central
Congregational Church and of the West
Green Street Presbyterian Church were
invited to attend and did so in large
numbers! At both services the church
was crowded and the greatest attention
was given the eminent divine.

The Mississippi Legislature, at Its last
session, passed an act authorizing the
Governor, the State Treasurer and tho
Auditor to issue treasury warrants to
the amount Of 100000, in denomina-
tioas Of s., bearing interest at the rate
OF two per cent, redeemable January list
of each year until tho Legislature meets
again, in 1896, in order to tide the State
ovcrthe financial panic. These warrants
are made payable to bearer, and it was
the intention of the Legislature that
they should pass current as money.
Recently the Governor has been called
upon by branch of the United States
Treasury Department to deliver up all
the unsigned warrants that have not
been placed in circulation, presumably
under the clause of the Federal Con-
stitution that expressly forbids States
from coming money, emitting bills Of
credit or making anything but coin a
legal tender. The Governor has de.
clared that he will not comply with the
demand made upon him from Washing
ton, and he insists that the action of the
Legislature is sustained by good legal
| authority.

We have suffered defeat without dis

Production of Aluminium.

There is diagram, printed in the
1893 volume of "Mineral Resources Of
the United States" which shows more
graphically than mere figures the won
derful increase in the production Of
aluminium in recent years. In this
diagram the product of 1888 is repre-
scented by line of less than half an
inch in length, while the line Tor 1898 is
nearly seven inches long An accom-.
panying table gives the production Of
aluminium in the United States for the
last ten years as follows; IS pounds in
1885, $50 pounds in 1884; 1888 pounds in
1885; 5000 pounds in 1886; $4,000
pounds in 1887; 10000 pounds in 1888;
47,46S pounds in 1889; 81 ,2Sl pounds in
1890; 100000 pounds in 1891, 259,SS5
pounds in 1892, and $4,000 pounds in
1898. With the increase in production
there has been marked diminution in
price, which has dropped five-fold or more
within the past five years. The price
per pound for aluminium ingots, in ton
lots, ranged from IS to 80 cents for tie
calendar year 1893.
Of the total production for 1893,
small proportion was in the form Of
aluminium alloys, especially bronze, but
large proportion OF the bronze is made
from metallic aluminium. The greater
part of the product left first hands in
tho fnrn, of iptynta Gov ,,sa &C a - ,fl1i,i,,
to steel. 1t can be said that nearly all
the steel makers use small proportion
OF aluminium, with the result of less
waste in castings. For example, the
amount Of waste in crop ends or steel
rails is lcssened protitably. Ingot alumni
mum also goes TO manufacturers Of
aluminium cooking utensils, and this
industry is extending satisfactorily.
The remainder of the product goes out
as sheet and wire for many purposes,
including numberless experimental uses,
among them lithographing with alumni
mum plates instead Of zinc or litho-
graphic stone. Some experiments in
this direction, in the navy department
of the United States Geological Survey,
indicate that the transfers obtained on
aluminium are superior to those on zinc.
The ore from which aluminium is OBJ
tanned Is known as bauxitc, which has
thus far been mined commercially in
only two localities in the United States;
in Arkansas and in the Coosa valley of
Georgia and Alabama The shipments
of bauxite during the year were 6,764
tons from Alabama and 2,315 tons from
Georgia; besides which between 5000
and 5000 tons were, imported. "Baux-
ite," says the report, "has occupied the
position of an ore for so short time
that little has been known or written of
its mode Of occurrence or origin. In
formation upon these points has the
most direct bearing upon the economi-
cal development of the deposits, since it
affords basis for estimating the proba.
BILE extent and value of those already
known and means Of directing search
for others. Much fruitless prospecting
has already been done and still more
energy will be wasted as the demand
for the ore increases"

Action In Regard to LAYING Pipes on
Washington Street Bridge.


Washington Street Bridge.
The Board OF Water Commissioners,
at Its meeting Tuesday afternoon, re-
quested President Porter to confer with
City Solicitor Elliott in regard to pre-.
pairing q contract for laying water pipes
on Washington street bridge, for which
privilege tho board will pay the Levy
Court the sum Of 100000.
When the Levy Court decided to
build the bridge the board promised to
pay $4,000 for the privilege stated.
For some reasons the money has never
been paid, tho chief one being that the
board was afraid that electricity from
the proposed railway line would damage
the pines or that the vibration caused
by tho cars running over the bridge
would loosen them.
Announcement was made that tho
board has $50 ,474.92 in bank.
The payroll, amounting to $6SS.7l,
was ordered paid.
