There are great many homes
having Zinc lined Bath Tubs
that are in good condition with
this one exception, they lack the
features of a porcelain lining.
How to overcome this without
going to the expense OF getting
new tub has been a question
that has worried a good many.
One pot OF our WHITE
ENAMEL PAINT will do the
work, forming as it does a
GLOSSY SURFACE almost
equal in hardness and durability
to that OF Porcelain itself, being
at the same time hardly distln-
guished from Porcelain.
Consult with your Physician
and he will tell you by all means
to paint your Bath Tub with
ENAMEL PAINT.

thing Is quiet here to night and there
has been no indication Of repetition of

COMPTROLLER BOWLER announced
yesterday that he did not expect to act
on the sugar bounty claim of the OK
ford Beet Sugar Company, OF Nebraska,
for several weeks yet, and possibly not
before the middle of September. This
statement, it 80 said. tends to corrobo-
rate the report that he desires a per-
sonal conference on the subject with
Secretary Carlisle before announcing
his decision In the case. 1t also SEEING
to Indicate that he and HIS superiors
perfectly understand each other, and
shat his course in refusing to pay the
claims for sugar bounty are based on
something more substantial and tsngi-
bio than mere abstract opinion as to
the constitutionality Of the act of Con-
gress authorizing the payment of sugar
bounties.

CLAY INDUSTRIES OF THE COUNTRY

CLAY INDUSTRIES OF THE COUNTRY.
The statistics of the clay working in
dustries of the United States, furnished
in the report Of the geological survey,
show that the total value of the clay
products of this country last year, ex-
Guiding pottery, was over S65. 900, 900,
against S67, 600, 600 in 1890, which is not
so bad. considering the latter figures re-
present boom days, while the former
were collated at the lowegt ebb of
the late financial depression. OF this
siKty-fve millions in clay products,
fifty three per cent. OF tho value was in
bricks, which numbered 6,l52 600, 900,
enough, If spread out in the form Of q
pavement, to make walk over eleven
feet wide all around the globe. Among
the States engaged in clay manufacture
ers Ohio heads the list, the product OF
that State being valued at $40, Cos .O0O
or over 16 per cent. OF the product of the
whole country.
The other States so engaged show
the following per centage: Illinois, 10;
Pennsylvania, IL; New York. S; New
Jersey, g. Indiana, S; Missouri and
Iowa, 4; Massachusetts and Mississippi,
81 Maryland, Wisconsin and Minnesota,
2 per cent. Virginia it will be seen IA
not even in the list and yet there ara
some of the finest deposits of clay in
this State to BIO found anywhere in the
Union, from that used in making the
most durable and attractive bricks to
the finest quality Of porcelain clay or
kaolin. The clay of Powhattan county
has already a world wide reputation for
the superior pipes made therefrom,
while beautiful specimens OF kaolin
have boon found in Hanover county in
the eastern portion Of the State aud
Bedford, Botetourt and other counties
in the southwest. In this, as in almost
every thing else, the undeveloped
wealth OF the Old Dominion is simply
amazing, and only half an effort is
needed 20 convince the world of the
fact. 1t cannot be that the riches of
the State in this era Of material
progress will much longer remain dor
mant. Those who have deposits of
clay, mineral or any commodity of value
on their lands should make the fact
known, thereby at the same time help
Ing themselves and aiding in the devel-
opment Of this most favored common
wealth.

The South has raised the largest corn
crop in it's history, and likewise the
largest fruit Eand vegetable crop; it's
cotton crop promises fair yield, with
prospect for good pricea; its industrial

busy and prosperous; it's furnaces ara
pushed to meet the demand for iron at
profitable figures; it's coal mines are
turning out larger product than ever
before: it's textile industries are de-

other industries are busy, while capital

IT is now said that Spain is willing to
pay the principal. amounting to $780,
600 OF the Mora claim; but not the inI
terest, which is some $500, 600. That the
United States should press Spain just at
this time, when she has first-class re-
bellion on her hands in Cuba, seems
hardly fair under the rules of interna-
tional comfy; but in collecting claims
from tardy debtors, it Is sometimes
necessary to take advantage OF such OPP
portunities as may present themselves,
or not get the money at all. This may
be the position of the United States in re-
gard to Spain. circumstances often
alter cases.

SILVER DEMOCRATS.
History of tho Gall for a Conference and
| Outline OF lis Aims and PURPOSES

History of tho Gall for a Conference and
Outline OF IFS Aims and Purposes
WASHINGTON, August I3-Senator
Harris, of Tennessee, is the only mem
Der of the committee which signed the
call for conference of Democrats on
the silver question to take place in
Washington tomorrow who has arrived
hero. Senators Jones, of Arkansas, and
Turpie, OF Indiana, are the other TWO
members of the com mitsee and both are
expected before the opening Of the con-
ference.
The meeting will be held in ,he par
Tors of the Metropolitan Hotel and will
continue one or two days, It's duration
depending upon the will of those
present. 1t is not intended that the
gathering shall be mass convention.
but merely meeting of representative
Democrats OF the country to the extent
OF two or three from each State who
favor the free coinage of silver by the
United States independent OF other ma
tons and who believe that the success
OF tho party in the future is dependent
upon Its assuming an aggressive policy
on this line
The call for the Washington confer
ence grew out of meeting at Memphis
in which only Democrats participated
after the conclusion of the recent mass
convention there, and the decision to
hold it here was arrived at afser full
exchange views that 1t was the best
place for securing cooperative action
on the part OF silver Democrats through
out the country. Notwithstanding there
were number of Populists and some
Republicans present at the Memphis
conve ntion, no representatives OF either
Of these parties were invited to the con-
ference which authorized the call.
The meeting here will have two prin-
cipal purposes. The first of these will
be to devise plan to bold all silver
Democrats in the Democratic party and
the second to insure if possible decls-
ration for free coinage at the next
national Democratic convention. To
accomplish this latter purpose it Is ex-
pected that an organization will be per-
fected in every State represented in the
conference, whose principal purpose
shall be tina Of securing delegates to the
convention pledged 10 silver platform
and to candidate OF CORES bonding
views. 1t Is expected that men will be
selected to take charge OF this work in
each OF the States.
Senator Harris thinks about thirty
States will be represented at the con-
ference. Representative Cox, Of Tenn
essee. is tho only delegate to the con-
ference who has arrived at the Metro
politan. THE object Of the conference"
he said, It's to perfect an organization
inside the Democratic party. We have
no sympathy with movements looking
to indepe ndent action" At the hotel it
is estimated that the attondanc will
exceed 100 persons, and there Is SO far
no evidence that it will reach that
numb Der. Senator Harriss says Senator
Jones, of Arkansas will be the tempo
rary presiding aflcer.
