HELPING WoRKINGMEN.
Two Practical Ideas already Worked
Out in Cleveland.

From the Worlds Work.
Once a week in the factory of the
Cleveland Window Glass company \
discussion takes place upon some topic
of business interest. Written questions
are handed in advance to the en-
ployees. The answers enable the COM
pany to judge of the efficiency of it's
working force. They indicate also the
possibility of educating men from the
ranks to positions as foremen and
salesmen n, thus obviating the necessityof
relying upon outside assistance. Here
is one example: Two years ago
young man was taken into the employ
of the company at a salary of $l2 per
month. Soon the company needed
salesman. Largely through informa-
ton obtained in these discussions he
was enabled in a short time to fill the
position of salesman at salary of s25
per week instead of s12 a month.
One feature of special interest in the
works of the Cleveland Twist Drill
company is the system OF paying for
suggestions tending toward improve
ments in factory methods and manage
ment. The drills made by the COM
pany are Strengthened before they are
sent out. A drill is laid on a block OF
metal whose upper surface is smooth
and highly polished. BY looking tow
ard a strong light and rolling the drill
back and forth the Inaccuracies, If any
exist, are discovered. This work re-
quires great accuracy and close appli-
cation, and is exceedingly trying to the
eyes. Formerly the work was done In
a large room with number of large
windows. An employe suggested par
titioning the room, painting the walls
green. and hanging green shades at the
windows. Fifty dollars was paid for
this suggestion. In return the COM
pany obtained the use of half the origi-
nal room for other purposes, and an in
crease of Is per cent in the work done
i'm the green room. This increased out
put has already amounted to several
thousand dollars.

THE NATIONS CAPITAL.
How 1t Has Been Developed in One
Hundred Years.

From the Worlds Work
When Washington last beheld the
city which bears his name, shortly be-
fore his death In 1893, il WAS a strag-
Cling settlement in the woods, almost
wholly devoid of streets, with thirty
or forty residences--most of these
small and uncomfortable-and an un-
finished capitol and presidents house
Indeed Washington long remained a
sparsely built unsightiy city and I
comfortless place OF residence. For
more than n generation its growth in
population was less than six hun
dred year, u rate of increase thst
would now put to shame almost any
village in the land; and SO late as
1870. De Pacourt The French minister,
could write that Washington was
neither city, nor a village, nor the
country" but "a buildlng-yard placed
in n desOlate SPOT, wherein living is
unbcarablc.'
The opening OF the Civil war found
IL a dirty, struggling, unkempt town.
The water supply came from pumps
and springs; there We're neither street
cars nor paved streets; no fire de-
partment police force worthy of the
name, and not a sewer In the city.
Earthen bluns lined the river bank:
stables and wooden fences surrounded
the White House; the present depart
ments We're not half finished. and the
parks and commons were given up -
weeds. But all this was changed by
the struggle Tor the Union. which
doubled the population of Washington
and brought in freedom and Northern
enterprise. but more important still,
by a thousand moving and glorious

"The Parish Priest"

Daniel Sully and his excellent COM
pany Of actors appeared at the Grand
Opera House here on Saturday even
ing. The house which greeted him was
a poor one, half the seats being empty.
This is something new for Mr.. Sully
this season, as he has been playing to
large audiences almost constantly. But
of late it seems to be the fate of all
companies playing here, Chauncey Oh
colt being the only exception so far
this season.
"The Parish Priest certainly de-
served better treatment, for it is a
strong play, full of quaint Irish wit
and pathetic scenes. The audience was
kept interested every moment, and
there was not dull situation through
out the entire three acts. Tonight the
play will be presented in Scranton,
where it has been presented twice pre-
viously and has on each occasion been
greeted with packed houses.

volumes of smoke issued from the

A RAILRoADER KILLED.
Patrick Scott, Formerly of Carbon.
dale, Struck by a Locomotive.

Word was received in this city on
Saturday that Patrick j. Scott son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. John J. Scott, of this
city. was struck by a locomotive at
East Hartford, Conn, the previous
night about 6 o'clock, and instantly
killed. The news was embodied in two
kilograms received by his parents, one
from the superintendent of the rail-
road and the other saying that the re-
mains had been taken in charge by the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, of
which organization the victim was a
member.
Patrick J. Scott was born in this city
and lived here until few years ago,
when he secured employment on the
Consolidated railroad, and had since
been In Its employ up to the time of
his death. He was twenty-eight years
old.
Besides the parents, one brother and
FIVE sisters survive him. They are
John Scott, Mrs. w. J. McDonough, the
Misses Genevieve and Rosella Scott, all
of this city; Mrs. II. Il. Taylor, of For
est City, and Mrs. L. w. Brewster, OF

A Horse Causes Excitement.

A horse driven by Patrick A. Wal
ker, the eXpressman, furnished few
moments excitement on Saturday
morning. From some cause or other
the animal suddenly conceived the
notion that he was cut out for run
ner and started off at a lively gait on
Church street, which seems to be the
popular thoroughfare for runaway
horses. When it got to the corner of
Salem avenue the horse made quick
swing to continue its fight up the steep
hill, but it got tangled up with a tele-
graph pole in front of Sullivans shoe
shop, and this was Mr. Walkers
chance to get control of it. He grasped
the opportunity and the horse. No
damage resulted except to the spec
tators' feelings, who were disappointed
at the quick ending of what promised
to be little excitement.
