Trip to New York Devoid of Any
Special Incidents.


NEW YORK, April 26.-The special
train bearing the vice presidential pa ty
to the Grant ceremonies arrived at
Jersey City today at 3:34 p. m. The en-
tire trip had been pleasantly unevent-
full, and the senators and representa-
tives seemed almost 10th to leave the
cars Vice President Hobart and Mrs.
Hobart walked at the head of the
procession through the small crowd on
the platform to the carriages which
were waiting for them Then they
were driven on board the Jersey Cen
trail ferry boat Fanwood and landed
at Twenty-third street, this city,
whence they were driyen to their re-
spective stopping places. The train
will make the return trip to Washing
ton on Wednesday morning next, at
II o'clock, when 1t is expected that
most of the party will go back to the
capital. Those who managed the
transportation facilities today were: S.
B. Hebe, assistant passenger agent of
the Baltimore & Ohio in Washington;
E. w. Skinner, of the New Orleans Cen
trail, and their assistants.
During the run from Philadelphia to
Jersey City, over the Jersey Central
tracks, the vice president and Speaker
Reed held their respective dinner par

knowledge of this additional confess
sion and the proximity of the two per-
sons who admit it has aroused excite
ment IN the vicinity to the highest
pitch imaginable. and a lynching will
surely result if the aroused settlers can
get the two boys into their possession.
The two boys have been raised at the
agency and have gone to school there.
Ireland has always borne good repu-
tation, but Holy Track has had the
reputation of being the making Of a
bad Indian. When the crime was COM
mitted the boys were both intoxicated,
and Holy Track says that he was so
drunk at the time that he does not
remember whether he used an ak or
a hoe to mutilate the bodies.
The confession of Coudot made some
time ago is believed to have been in
drced through fear that he might suf-
fer for the crime unless he should find
some one upon whom to place blame
for the crime. The surprise at this lat
est development in the case can better
be imagined than described, and excite
ment is at fever heat.

Diver Still Rises at Ottunnwa.
Big Reservoir in Danger That Will Do Great Damage
if 1t Gives Way.

OTTUMWA, To-, April 26.-The Des
Moines river, which at midnight last
night was stationary at the high water
mark established by the great food
of 1892, suddenly began to climb, and
by o'clock today had added 10 inches
to the record. The levees broke in many
places, railroad embankments were un-
dermined and hundreds of families
were compelled to quit their residences
in great haste. In Ottumwa over 300
families were compelled to move, a
large number making their escape in
boats. At EddyviT1e, eighteen miles
north of this city, $50 families vacated
their domiciles, and the principal
streets are being navigated in row.

the summit of Court hill IS the source

STEEL BALL BEARINGS.
Most of the Little Steel Spheres
Are Used for Bicycles.
The Machinery Which Produces Them Ii
of the Automatic Variety-Complete
Description of the Processes
of Manufacture.

The process of making a complete
steel ball from the blank is described
in the American Machinist, which says
that the making of these balls in this
country is in the hands of three COM
panies, all of them east. In short, the
process of making the balls is as fol-
lows:
The first "blank" is either forged out
of steel bar with steam hammer or
is turned out by an automatic screw
machine, leaving the blank in the shape
of a roughly shaped sphere, with two
little nibs, one opposite the other, as
shown in the illustration. In this form
it, with numerous others like it, is fed
into the rough grinding machine,
where it is started on its way toward
the perfect sphere. Noattempt is made
to cut off the little necks or nibs before
the blank is fed into the machine, for
the grinding stone soon eats them away.
The principal part of the rough-grind-
ing machine consists of a holding
down" ring, which keeps the balls in
the N-shapcd channel which runs
around the groove" disk. Below the
groove disk is the grinding wheel, the
whole supported on a vertical shaft.
The ball blanks are placed in the cir
Iular, open-bottomed V-groove, with
a fat revolving ring over them, thus
giving the blanks three points of bear
ing by which they are supported, so
that the Bottom line of the blanks pro-
jects a very small distance below the
bottom face of the circular ring and
the circular disk.
Below the ring is the grinding wheel:
which is so supported that it can lie
"fed" up to the work by the most
delicate kind of a feeding device, and
is so arranged that the balls travel over
the entire face of the wheel. After the
rough balls are placed in the machine,
the top ring is put down on them, the
grinding wheel is fed up to touch the
balls and the grinding begins. At first
the sparks come in splits and flashes,
but soon there is q steady stream of
fire, whirling like ring of sparks,
which indicates that the balls have been
ground to spheres.
The machine then is stopped, and the
balls are taken out and measured by

with magmeuzed steer pencu, anu inc
selection is carried on until none but
perfect balls remain in the tray.
The perfect balls then go TO the pol
ishing machine, where they are placed
in Il groove similar to that in the rough
grinding machine, and are covered by
n gray iron ring, but otherwise the two
machines are entirely different for
there is no grinding wheel in the polish
ing machine. The balls are polished
with oil and fine emery, and every few
minutes the operator stops the ma
chine to measure samples of the balls,
and this is kept up until the polished
balls are of the exact size required.
The next step in the process is to
harden the balls. This is done by Civ
ing them an oil temper. They first arc
heated in an iron vessel. which is con-
stantly kept in motion. so that the balls
will be evenly heated. When the proper
temperature has been reached, the balls
are suddenly dropped into oil, and thus
receiving temper which makes them
hard.
The hardened balls are next placed
in an oalen tumblcr barrel, where they
are tumbled around and up against
each other until each ball is FURNISHED
until it looks like u globule of mer-
curry. Then they are inspected, meas
ured and sorted, the measuring and
asserting being done by very ingenious
automatic machinery.
Balls are made from One-eighth
inch in diameter to five inches in d.
ameter, the latter for use in pump
valves. Most of the balls made for
balls-bearings are used in bicycles, but
millions of them go into sewing ma
chimes. and in other machinery where
it is desirable to reduce friction to q
minimum.

REMOVING STAINS.
Several Prescriptions Which Arc Certain
ly Worth Trying.

ly Worth Trying.
Varnish or paint stains should first
be covered with butter or sweet oil, and
then rubbed with turpentine. If it is
an old stain, the turpentine may be re.
placed by chloroform, which must, OF
course, be used with great precaution.
Fruit stains will generally yield if you
rub according to the grain of the mate
rial, with little salt and water. Sher-
ry will take out claret stains, if they
are rubbed gently. Blood stains should
be soaked with petroleum, and then
washed in warm water. 1t is said that
no stain will resist the following recipe:
Put into a large bottle two quarts OF
clean spring water, add piece of white
amber the size of a walnut, a piece OF
potash as big as hazel nut, and two
lemons cut into slices. Let it stand "a
hours, then strain and keep it in we'll
eorked bottles. Damp the stain with
this preparation and rub the place with
fresh water directly afterward.
Finally, try this prescription for taxi
ing stains out of silk or cloth: Pound
some French chalk until very fine, and
mix it with warm water to the thickness
of mustard. Put it on the spots, rub it
lightly with your finger, or the palm
of your hand, then put a sheet of blot
ting paper or brown paper over the
spots and press firmly with warm iron.

been ground down to the required size,
which is within one-thousandth inch
of the polished and finished ball. The
rough balls are taken to the inspectors
