FACTS ABOUT GLLSS.

Attention was recently called to the
proposed use Of glass bricl; in building.
The most ancient glass las neccssari-
ly the same component PARTS as that
Of to-day and the processes used seem.
to have been similar in al times.
From England comes the SUGGESTION
that glass would be better and more
lasting material than stone fer making
monuments which are eXT Toscd to the
wearing action of the weather.
1t is now said that the government of
Switzerland has approved the use of
glass for making weights TO be en-
ploycd with balance scales. \ pecul-
iarly tough kind of glass is TO be Sc
lected for that purpose.
a change from old methods is that
Of fashioning glass by machine pressure
instead of molding by blowing. In the
pressed glass the articles ere either
made by hand or machine pressure, and
this innovation has done Eiuch toward
making glass articles much cheaper
than formerly.
No industry except that of cloth
manufacture has contributed so much
to the comfort and advancement Of
man as that Of glassmaltnT, which Is
one of the oldest of technical industries.
Its earliest home was Egypt. The Brit
ish museum has a lions head of glass
bearing hieroglyphics fixing the date
at 2,400 years before Christ.

errors Explanation of
His Policy
COL. G. P. HAYES SUCCESSOR.

Governor Tyler has determined to make
many changes in the personnel of the
members Of the Boards Of Visitors OK .be
several public institutions. lie viii, as
Tar as Is practicable, distribute them
among the counties and cities OF the vari-
Gus sections OF the State.
Richmond and Norfolk will lose in their
representation on the boards for each OF
these cities has more members than It Is
really entitled to according TO the spirit
Of the Code.
The Governor believes the best inter-
osts OF the Commonwealth would be
served by making frequent changes IN the
boards.
COLONEL HAYES SUCCESSOR.
II was in pursuance Of this policy that
the Governor yesterday commissioned
Messrs Lloyd r. Smith, of Northumber-
land. T.. w. Saunders, of Franklin, and
~. r. Shields. OF Lexington, as mem
bers OF the Board Of Visitors of the
Virginia Military Institute to serve three
years from January ]. 1899.
Mr. Smith succeeds Col Percy Halves.
OF Richmond Mr.. Saunders and Mr..
Shields succeed themselves, the former
having been appointed for the uneX-
prcd term of Col. Peter Harrison and
the latter to succeed Judge Letcher.
THE GOVERNOR EXPLAINS.
Governor Tyler was called upon by
former instructor I'm the Virginia Military
Institute, who was at first somewhat in
dignant at his refusal to appoint Rich
mond man. whom he advocated, to sue
coed Colonel Halves
Ii
there were seventy-three counties which
had never been represented on the Board
and he deemed it best TO begin making
appointments from them
He called his attention TO the fact that
Richmond was I'm close touch with the
institute through its alumni society. and
that these relations would not be alter
ed by this city having no representation
on the Board.
