Some Points About Metals

Extreme cold increases the tenacity of pure metals and alloys, and the higher the melting point of metal the stronger it is likely to be- This is accounted for by the statement that metals with high melting points must necessarily be coherent and tenacious. Metals are composed of molecules. and high-melting point metals require an enormous amount of heat to drive the molecules apart.

GENIUS IS ECCENTRIC.
AS Is Proved hy Some Recent Doinzs
 of Actors.

The ancient wearers of the sock and buskin had many draw backs to con- tend against The strollers who sol emnly performed their parts on the insecure boards of a cart must have felt at times that they were leaving altogether too much to the imagina- tion of the open-mouthed auditors. Yet we have no reason to believe that they ever cut short =a tragedy because of these unpleasant restrictions. nor that they rudely drove away in the midst of mutilated comedy. It re- mains for the later-day actor, with his wealth of realistic surroundings, to flare up over trifes and bare his ouivering nerves before a presumably Ssympathetic audience Miss Julia Arthur stops her performance and de nounces the murmur Of a ehatterfng box party. Actor Richard Mansfield throws up his hands in disgust and rings down the curtain because of a spdttefing steam pipe. Perhaps he felt at the moment very much as the oldtime actor did when greatly an moved by the crying of an infant child. Breaking off abruptly, he advanced to the footIight5 and grayely observed: Unless the play stops, the child can not go on. Mf Mansfield, however, said nothing-at least, nothing audi ble to the audience He tacitly con fessed his unwillingness to match the ordinary vocal pipes against the va pory sort, and rang down the curtain Genius has always borne a reputation for eccentrfcity. but only in later years has it burst through the en- vironments of time, and place, and professional obligation. and domi- mated it's chosen field. The musical genius warbIes or thrums at will; the actor treads the boards at will. Per haps this independence of action will mark the other professions in time Genius has become in measure, a petty auteerat. and as long as there are gervile neeks for it to pirouette upon, it may be expected to show stt1. further proofs of unpleasant =eeeen trieity.

HOW coLoRAFFEeTs eTsINDUsTRY
One Reason Why American Machinery
 Is Not More PopuIar.

A gentleman who has trave1ed much and has a very large interest in Amer ican export trade said. in conversation the other day athat=the principal draw back to q wider extension American commerce fn# certain parts Of the world is that manufacturers =InZt q. United States do sufficiently Ig.Zsta.dy. the wants, the customs and the tastes of their prospective customers. For ex- ample he said, "a certain American firm sent some electrical goods, which were decorated in green, to Japan. They did not sell any. No Japanese would bring such things into his house; it would mean an invitation to the evil deities. Green is an evil color in Japan What Japanese wants is red things, Upon this simple matter 0f color rests the failure of that manu saeturer to succeed in export trade German employer of labor sa F like American machines so far as their performance of their work is con cerned. but they demoralize my men. They come here in sober eolors of
  men who attend the machines do not have any brass to keep clean or any surfaces to rub, and they get lazy. The German workman needs to be kept busy with things of this sort. Here, now, are some practical instances of what the American manufacturer must learn before he can attain the widest Ga1I of err trade Do not send to Germany eata- logues in the English language or 10 Japan things decorated in green or to the isthmas of Panama anything with blue spots in 1t. It looks as il we need in this country a commercial kinder garten in which such information as the above may be taught to those of . curious and inqaifing mind for their everlasting benefit and profit.

WHY WOMEN WORRY MOST.
Have More Leisure Time Than Men and

Have More Leisure Time Than Men and
 Naturally Think Over Things.
 From time immemorial women have been told-by women, as well as men. though naturally more often by the Iatter-that worry digs wrinkles in their faces and sprinkles gray among their tresses. These warnings do lit tie good The fair creatures go on worrying and will probably continue to do so until the millennium comes. Why this is so is answered in this way: The question of worry with women seems to be simply this: Wom= en are so hedged about by the HttIe= ness of their protected liyes-for 1t is the protected woman who does the most worrying-that it is hard to see beyond and above sometimes, and mat ters in this way get wholly out of fo- GUS If women had the capacity with men of getting up and doing battle with things, worry would slip off their shoulders as easily as from off those of the average masculine. Man doesn't worry about debt, because he feels that he has it within him (sinee money making is his business) to make sufh- eient money to pay his debts-some time. Women look at it more prac- tically, and consider the now Man doesn't generally worry about his health, because he really has not the time. Let him become i'll, though, and have to stop his work, and how is il with him? Man doesn't worry about the future-he is so madly interested in the present; nor about his clothes, fer the tailor stands. between him and that; nor about home matters-they from his point of view, are too trivial until he comes home to badly cook ed dinner, and then in his broad out look there is no excuse for this state of things, for in business, if an em- ploye does not do his work properly, his employer gets some one who can, a method that will yet come to be a powerful lever in the Ieveling of wom- en's worries.

LAWRENCE, INFANT PRODIGY.
Attracted the Attention of Garrlck.
 Foote, Burke and Sheridan.


 Raphael with genius at his back. did not come to maturity so quickly. nor did Rubens, triumphant at Antwerp hold popular applause so long; for Lawrence kept his admiring public to the last, and was something of a won der both as man and boy, says the Century. His whole career was bril- liant. yet not through intrinsic force: hls art was successful without being great; he was honored and praised down to his grave, and yet he possessed not genius. There are men who achieve popular success without genius. Lawrence was one of them The father was a man of some birth and educa- ton, but what is called "the poetic temperament' and never got on very well in the world He was at different times a barrister without a brief. an actor without part, a keeper of the White Lion inn at Devices without guests enough to make it pay. When young Lawrence was 3 years old his father made a change of base and moved into the Black Bear inn. It was here that the boy was placed upon a table to recite Shakespeare for the guests. Here, also, he developed a wonderful gift of making portraits in pastel of the passing public A guest could have portrait painted while he waited, and the speed of the artist was not less wonderful than his age. The duchess of Deyonshire and Lord and Lady Kenyon were among his early sitters, and the record is preserved that Lady Kenyon's likeness was drawn in profile, because, as the child artist de clared "her face was not straight z In short time he had attracted the attention of Garrick, Foote. Wilkes, Burke, Sheridan and Johnson, and his father began travelling with him about the neighboring country and exhibiting him as one Of the wonders of the age.

nnr.s Eats Il. Owner. Money.

Jacob w Whitehead, storekeeper of New Paris, Ind, is short S65 in cur renev and his horse has risen in value. Whitehead went home late and climbed the stairs of the barn to throw down hay to the family nag. In his pocket he had a pocketbook contain ing five ten-dollar bills, one five and ten ones. This dropped from his pocket as he bent over to pick up the hay Whitehead did not miss the money until the next morning. He then searches the barn, and found q few fragments of the pocketbook, to- gether with tiny bits of the bills. The faithful animal had deyoured the hay and valorously tackled the pocket book and contents, leaving nothing with which Whitehead could make proof of his loss at the treasury.-Ght- cago Inter Ocean.

refused to make any recommenda-
ohs, upon the ground that the
term Of the present postmaster ex-
pired while ils predecessor was in
office, and that it would be unbe-
coming in him to submit a recon-
mendation Tor the FL ng of en-
Office which properly to his pre-
decessor. Ii was understood at
the department here, however,
that, while Mr.. Mallet would not
recommend the appointment of
Douglas to Redfeld. Some time
ago the postmaster general took
up the case and sent the nomina-
tion of Stephen A. Douglas to the
presidential for his signature,
together with all the papers in
the case. About the same time a
number Of kilograms were received
by the president, urging him to
appoint Redfeld. When the
papers reached the White House,
President Mckinley examined
them carefully aud returned them
to the department, with the re
quest that they be held, pending
further development. Two weeks
ago the postmaster general again
took up the case and again recon-
mend the appointment Of Mr..
Douglas. Again the papers were
returned to the postohice depart
ment by the president. From
present indications the new nation
al committeeman will be forced t
to make a Recommendation, il
which event there seems to be lit

Hazletony Pa, Sept. Is. The
second day Of the anthracIt coal

in this dist Tiet. What little

this morning was in favor of the

many mines there were feN el
men working than on yesterda Y
Some of the eollieries are so sbor
of men that it is doubtful if they
can continue work during the en-l
tire day.
Every Ificial connected with
the United Mine Workers now in
district, with the exception Of
Presldenes Mitchell, started out
before six o'clock this morning
Tor + ticket duty before various
pollI ,ries. All had returned to
hef .dquarters by eight o'clock and
7 .ported that they had been sue
cessful in inducing men to stay
away from various workings.
A number of leaders also re-
ported that several of the mines
are being guarded by watchmen to
prevent union men from attempt
ing to induce non-union strikers
to quit work.

Fight for Postmaster.
Ardmore's Contest is an Intense
and Complicated Affair.

Washington, Sept. 17.-The'
fight over the postmastership at
Ardmore, |. T., is becoming more
intense daily, and as 1t is protract-
ed the situation becomes more com
p'icated. For a third-class post
ofIio 9, with salary attachment Of
only 50, 900 per annum, the con-
test is as spirited as any which
has occurred over a small postofiice
in any of tie states. Twice the
case has been disposed Of by the
postoffice depart. 1ent and sent to
the president for the attachment
of his signature to a commission
appointing Stephen A. Douglas
postmaster, but each time the
papers, together with the commits
sions, were returned TO the post
office department with a request
from the president to hold them
for further consideration,
The whole trouble over the ap-
pointment of a republican post
master at Ardmore arises from
the fact that there has been q
change in the republican national
committee from the territory.
Tne term of the present postmas-
ter at Ardmore expired eight
