What Labor Can Produce from That
Amount of the Metal
At the recent meeting OF the South
Staffordshire Institute of Iron and
Steel Works Managers Thomas Nor
ris presented some interesting facts
about the remarkable achievements
that have been reached in the manu-
fncture Of fine wire. OF the antiquity
OF wire, Mr.. Norris said, there could
not be the slightest doubt. That used

plates of gold, and wire bad been dis
covered that was made as far back
as 100 =. G. 1t was NOS, however, until
about the middle Of the 14th century
that wire drawing was first practiced,
and then in Germany. Wire-drawins
was practiced in France at the end OF
the 18th century. and il wos nearly 100
years later before the industry was in
troGuced into England, during the
reign of Eliza beth.
The Forest of Dean was long the seat
OF the Withdrawing trade. In 1861
the first mechanical wire mill proper
vas erected at Sheen, near Richmond
birmingham appeared to have taken up
the manufacture of wire in the 18th
century with characteristics energy,
but early in the present century Lam
cashire began to take the lead, both
ls regards quantity and quality.
Mr.. Morris gave an interesting de
scription of the VARIOUS articles that
illustrated his paper, especially the va
rious wires, and pointed out that the
Warrington wire manufacturer who
presented him with many OF the speci.

$500 per ton, for the specimen Of

MUSIC AND DRAMA.

Beach & Bowers minstrels were
greeted by a fair sized and apreciative
audience at the Crawford Grand last
! night, Notwithstanding the slcet aud
! snow. the troupe were above the av-
erage. Only one girl in this Nj
erage. "Only One in Girl in This World
for Me-" was artistically rendered by
Buns Hoverson. G. Edward Dicken
sang 1.-the Hermit" with rich and
powerful bass voice. r. V. Prosser
took the audience with 'She May Have
Seen Better Boys" The bone solo by
Messrs. Beach and Bowers was one Of
the finest things of its kind seen in
Wichita for some time. The arrival Of
Sousa's band was a good take off and
very welcome. Carl Charles did some
splendid hand balancing and equili-

has been lucky Tor fortunate as the term
generally implies) IN the past few years
is considered a curiosity or a funny fell
d.
ager, has been exceedingly prosperous,
while others in all lines of business, in
Guiding the theatrical branch, have been
unfortunate and have met with disas-
trous results, there is reason for every
thing. Author Crater has given the PEG
pie something that they wanted, name
ly his interesting entertainments as pre-
scented in THE Fast Mail" and THE
Tornado" The amusement-loving peo-
pie wanted a good thing, Carter gave
I ii TO them, but they can stand another
good thing, and the "CyclOnic" mana
ger OF the west, as a New York paper
calls Carter, has sent out a new proc1c-
ton this season called THE Defaulter,
everyone knows what a defaulter is and
some to their sorrow; but there Is not
one who visits The Defeulter' this
season but that will be surprised as TO
their ignorance OF the capabilities of a
theat ricaI authors realm. The De-
faulter has made a greater success than
any previous effort of Mr.. Carter. Il is
written in entirely different lines, and
has met with great favor wherever the
company has appeared. Manager Mart

arrangements for the appearance of
