The meadow companies which meet
at David Sparks's farm, in Oldrlan's
Township, had commissioners out last
Saturday to decide in regards to repair
ing and building higher the cross bank.
The river bank Of the lower company
broke last spring, the cross bank was
washed away and the meadow from
Sparks's to New Bridge flooded and the
grass crop destroyed. The commission
ers, William Lawrence, John A. Feath-
erer, Samuel q. Springer and John
Burk decided that both companies
should bear the joint expense of repair
ing the cross bank to its former height
and build the sand bank on a level with
the meadow bank TO high ground, but
the upper company should bear all the
expense of building the cross bank high
Ell and wider than it is, if they have it
done as they wish.

Our artistic marble worker, JessaS
Claypoole has invented and had pa
ed a machine to blow bottles by
pressed air and to finish the bottla
p'ete. When a bottle is biown by hand
the neck has 10 be put on separate after
the bottle is reheated but this machine
makes the neck first and CATERS it COM
plete. Heretofore it has been consider
ed impossible to keep compI lssed air on
a mould and keep the bottle at any
angle for the distribution he llOlden
glass but Mr.. Claypoole has perfected
his machine so that this can be done.
Glassblowers and manuf.. ctures who
have seen this machine pronounce it
the simplest and best macn,ne ever in
vented for blowing glass. In fact, there
is only n other machine in practical
use for blowing glass. This machine is
likely to revolutionise the hollow ware
business as any size ware can be blown
and as a man who never saw a bottle
made car learn to run the machine in
two or three day. A skilled workman
a run three machines and make as
many bottles as three or four men with
blow pipes who now earn from 81 to SIS
a day.
Three weeks ago Mr.. Claypooie took
the model to Washington and got it
patented drought II. B. Wilson & Co.,
patent attorneys, whose advertisement
appears in the RECORD. Last week the
model was returned and the patent is
is now secure. A machine will be
made at once and put to practical test
and every man WHO knows anything
about manufacturing glass and has seen
the machine believes it will do what it
is intended for.
None of the machines will be sold.
They will be kept in repairs and the use
granted for a certain sum and a royalty
on each bottle made. The friends Of
Mr.. ClaypOole hope he will meet with
much financial success from this inven-
ton which was the result of much
thought and labor.

THEY DRIFT APART.

LINCOLN CLUB IS SPLIT.
Eighth Ward Jeffersonian
Club Holds a Rousing
Meeting.
| DARRAGH MAKES A SPEECH.
Prohibitionists Preparing for
/ Their County Conven-
ton Saturday.
DARRAGH MAKES A SPEECH.

There is a split in the Lincoln club.
growing out of the fact that enough of
the common herd Of Republicans got
into it to make war on the silk stocking
element, and refused to stand by the
state house ring in the denomination of
Sheriff Chapel. When that seeker after
further hOnors and perQuisites found
that tine club was against him he re-
fused 10 put up any money for Operat-
ing expenses. Then the state house
ring withdrew it's financial support
and submit to the dictatiOn of the
executive committee. which proposes to
run the campaign and handle the funds
through f. B. Doran as president and
L. w. Z0llman as secretary. The ring
has demanded as the price for reinstate-
ment that the club withdraw its Oppo-
SitiOn to Chapel and come into the
protectorate ana under penalty of being
crushed. Up 10 tine meeting of the club
last night there has been no ~capitulation
and it is apparent that the club will
hold on to the advantage gained against
5He silk stocking element and defeat
the denomination OF Chapel. There are
still some men in the club, however,
! that will stay until the county conven-
ton day in the hope of securing an in
dorsement OF the ring or bringing it
into the folds of the ring.
The club favors George Warren for
sheriff, E. G. Rogers for clerk OF courts,
NJ. j. Bell for register of deeds, Tom
Conroy for auditor. Walter Chaplin for
comfy attorney. and Edmund for county
treasurer. This slate is against the
i state house crowd, and unless there is a
compromise this campaign may bury
the Line DIN club and also the plan or
campaign" committee that was brought
| upon the stage with so much eclat.
Both organizations were presumed to
work for the same purpose, but when
the club got away from the ring it was
asked to seek new quarters and was cut
! off the state central committee annex.
The club then secured a room on a
lower floor of the Endicott block, where
it expects to work its way upward later
in the campaign.
The meeting of the club last night
was secret-necessarily so-for fear he
ructlon between it and the ring should
be disclosed. Sheriff Chapel was not
present. and it would have done him no
good to have been there. AS a matter
of fact. the club did not ant him to be
in evidence because plans were being
laid to make sure that he shall be
sheiyed IN the convention. j. II. Vol.
rst):f, G, orge Warren, Walter Chaplin
and a few other good Republicans were
present. and plans were set OH foot to
give the party a representative ticket,
