Or,r-in Of the Cannon.

It is a curious fact that the first cam
non was cast at Venice. 1t was called
a lombard" and was invented and
employed by General Pisani in a war
against the Genoese. The original
lombard, which bears the date Of
1880, is still preserved and stands at
the foot Of Pfsani's statue at the ar
senal. The lombard threw stone 100
pounds in weight; but another vene-
tan general, Francisco Barde, i'm
proved it until he was able to handle
charge Of rock and powders weigh
ing 1900 pounds. 1t proved disastrous
to him, however, for one day during
the siege Of cara, while he was oper-
ating his terrible engine, he was hurled
by 1t over the walls and instantly
killed.

Besie,'s waukegan Brewing Com pan.

besIeS's Wuukegau brewing company
1t Is with pleasure that we call the
attention Of the trade, and private fam.
lilies, to the fact that owing to the In
creasing demand for bottled ale and
porter OF undOubted purity and of the
finest quality, we are now bOttling the
same under our own supervision.
The frequent use of adulterants and
substitutes for malt and hops In the
manufacture Of malt liquors has re-
suited In an inquiry for an article Of
domestic manufacture, wholly free
from anything of a harmful or deleter-
Gus nature, and ut price that would
commend its use to all. The failure
hitherto to obtain such an article has
led consumers to purchase imported
goods at high price.
Therefore we are prepared to place
on the market bottled ale and porter
unexcelled in quality. equal In every
respect to the imported, at a much
lower price.
Our goods being manufactured from
the choicest barley malt and the best
hops In the market, no substitutes
whatever being used, and, being bottled
by ourselves at Waukegan, enables US
to offer to our customers an absolute
guaranty Of their purity and quality.
Families can obtain these goods OF
