Prodaction of Ozoae.

The progress in the construction and
working of ozone generators has late
ly been such that ozone can now be pro-
duced in large quantities continuously.
and the industrial application of ozone
can, therefore, be carried on now at q
relatively low cost and en- large
scale. Impure water can be rendered
wholesome and drinkablc by means of
ozone, which in the presence of water
acts as very powerful bactericide

BOSS" HANNA.

One of the weakest and most gauzy
arguments made against Mr. Hanna by
his enemies in Ohio is that he is boss.
They seek support and sympathy for
their movement on the ground that
they are engaged in patriotic and
philanthropic movement to down boss
ism and to relieve the State from the
supposed thraldom of one who has
usurped political power and is using it
against the interests of the people.
To those who look carefully into the
matter this will be seen to be most
transparent subterfuge. The facts are
just the reverse of what they claim.
Mr.. Hanna less than any man who is
now conspicuous in politics can be
classed as professional politician.
Up to within very short time ago he
was engrossed in operations uncon-
nected with politics. He was known
only as business man. 1t was as a
business man, known to be possessed
of high order of executive ability,
acquired in business pursuits, that
Hanna was called upon to place that
ability at the service Of his party. He
is newcomer in politics. This is the
real secret of the most virulent oppo-
sition to him. What will become of
us politicians" they say to themselves,
''if a mere business man, man who
never held an office and never before
aspired to one, may step to the front
and demand public recognition?" But
let Hanna be boss or not, the oppo-
sition to him on that ground comes
with exceedingly bad grace and with a
ring of insincerity from crowd that,
rs fully as any other in the Union, ex-
emplies and practices the methods of
boss politics. s.-Pittsburg Times.

llanoNs EARTHQUAKES.


A city That Is Rnised over sepui-
cher.
1t is impossible to be long in'Hsbon,
even nowadays. without neditating,
yainly enough, about the great earth
quake. The city is far more massive
now than it was in 1855. The thickness
Of the granite walls of It's churches and
houses is laudable from many aspects,
But this same substantially would
prove incredibly murderous If the
earthquake of 1855 were to repeat it
self. Perhaps they do we'll to have con-
fidence; perhaps they have done amiss,
Viewed from the Tagus, Lisbon of 1897
seems to offer tremendous scope for a
new seismic ruin. How her churches
and palaces on the hilltops and slopes
might be overturned upon the houses
and palaces between her hills! With
anything like the same destructive
force as in 1855, Lisbon would now be
rendered scene of falmostirredeemabl
chaos. and the loss of life would. of
course. be appalling. But these are.
one may hope, mere dreams inspired by
the skeleton ribs of the church of the
Carmo on one of the citys hilltops. The
earthquake wrecked this church, like
so many others. and it is preserved as
a ruin. says Chambers journal.
Some one estimated the loss of prop
erty here in the earthquake at C $780,
100000. The figures do not seem mod
est, when one remembers that Portugal
was then n rich country. They include
also the solid little sum of e 100000,
the value of the kings diamonds, which
went with one of the royal palaces.
These diamo onds alone would now be ex-
tremely acceptable to Portugal's i'm
poverished exchequer. If ever city
was raised over a sepulcher, modern
Lisbon was. But. Of course, it is late in
the day to be plaintive on the subject,
even If it were worth while at anv time.

HARr-euELL.
A Fashionable Marriage at st. Luies
Episcopal Church.

Episcopal Church.
Marriages do not occur often, in fact
not with sufficient frequency. When
they do occur 1t is seldom that they
have the beauty and interest which
graced the wedding of Mr.. d. P. Hart
and Miss Marie l.. Buell., Thursday
evening at St Luke's Episcopal church.
The ceremony was performed by DR..
John Boyd, the rector of St Luke's.
The chnrch with its Christmas dec
orations, looked very pretty, and the
scene at the altar was beautiful, ir-
deed. The bride was attended by her
sister, Miss Helen Buell., Miss Kath-
arine Nye and Miss King, of Columbus.
the groom's best man Mr.. f. K.
Loomis. and the ushers were Mr.. Ned
Buell., DIR. c. T. Waters, Mr.. Harry
Hart and Mr.. G. A. Bukey, of Parkers-
burg. Mrs. Bertha Metcalf presided
at the organ, and played number of
selections, including the Wedding
March from Lohengrin and Mendels-
sohn's Wedding March.
The church was we'll filled with
guests and spectators, and the scene
was one to be long remembered.
The bride wore gown of white satin,
en- traine, trimmed with chiffon and
elegant point lace, with belt and pen
dants of pearls. Her veil was caught
with orange blossoms, and she carried
a huge bunch of bride roses.
Miss Buell. wore pink satin trimmed
with pink mousseline de sole and pink
roses. She carried pink carnations with
smilax.
Miss Nye's gown was white organdie
over pink, trimmed elaborately with
insertion, mousseline de sole and roses
Miss Nye also carried pink carnations
Miss King was dressed in white or
candle over green, trimmed in much
the same manner as was the gown of
Miss Nye. Pink carnations were car
ried by Miss King.
Mr.. D. FL. Buell., brother of the bride,
gave her to him who sought her hand
at the altar.
At the house there were about ninety
guests, and the greetings to bride and
groom were cordial and happy in the
extreme. The house was elaborately
trimmed with evergreen and holly with
a profusion of palms in odd and attrac-
tive places. The bridal party sat at
table decorated with skill and taste,
the service consisting largely of we'd
ding presents. Of wedding presents
they received great many, and they
were beautiful, too the gifts of friends
at home and abroad.
in the dining room by an efficient
corps of helping hands. Refreshment is
consisted of oyster patties, chicken
salad, olives, lettuce sandwiches, salt
ed almonds, bonbons, cake and coffee.
Singers orchestra furnished music
for the occasion and it lent very con-
siderable charm.
On the 1850 B. & O. train Mr.. and
Mrs. Hart left amid good-bye's and
showers of rice, for Washington and
New York, to remain about a week,
when they will go to Cleveland and
reside indefinitely.
To Mr.. and Mrs D. p Hart their
many friends will be pleased to extend
congratulations and best wishes for a
long and happy life.

AT COLUMBUS.

Senator Riley offered a resolution
committee to consider the feasibility
of placing the funds of the State now
kept in the State treasury out on in
terest in some depository bank or
banks The resolution went oyer to
discuss. Both Senators Riley and
Alexander have bills in preparation
providing for the deposit of public
moneys in banks in return for interest
and securities. A number of similar
measures, optional in character and
local in application, have passed the
the Legislature in recent years, but
were repealed under the Hutsinpiller
bill of 1894.
Two bills have already been intro
duced amending the election laws.
One by Mr.. Sellmire repeals the Dana
law, which prohibited the placing of
the name of one candidate on more
than one ticket on the Australian bal
lot. The other bill by Senator Riley
repeals the Hard amendment, which
provided that only the voter who was
physically incapacitated should have
assistance of judges in marking his
ballot. Col. Riley holds that this
makes an educational qualification and
either disfrsnchises the illiterate voter
or compels him to vote the straight
ticket.-Ohio State journal.

Ex-presiaent and His Steak.

A story goes the rounds that few
days ago Mr.. Casimir-P Pirier and his son,
while cycling between Sens and Monte
reau, stopped mt a village inn and asked
for lunch. Nothing to give you" said
the landlady, "but sardines and eggs
Can you not add beefsteak?" I'm
possible. If we had cycle and some
body to ride it could send forthe meat,
but you know that 1t would take an
hour to go to the butchers and back"
"If that's your only reason" said the
ex-president, 1--WE can overcome the diff
ficulty," In q moment he and Master
Casimir-Firier were again on their steel
horses and the ex-president in time
fetched back succulent sirloin steak.

WATERTOWN.

The Watertown Farmers Institute
opened on Friday with very unfavor-
able weather, but with goodly num-
ber present at the opening hour. 1t
was no doubt the best and most inter
esting institute ever held at this place.
We were fortunate in having such able
and interesting takers in the state
speakers-Mr. c. G. Williams and T. C.
Laylin. Close attention and interest
was given to every address, paper and
recitation from beginning to close.
The music must have been good for the
state speakers complimented it on say
ing it was the best they had listened to
and they had been in the Institute
work for over three weeks. At these
institutes there is so much said in so
short time It's a mere craming process
with a jumbled up mess of recollections.
If we could have the addresses and
exercises distributed through the year
it certainly wonId do much more good.
The audience was unanimous in favor
of an institute at this place next year.
Miss Carrie Woodford, who has been
in Parkersburg learning the millinery
trade is at home for the holidays.

people who have entered the matri-
