The platform, in part, deeply de-
plored the death of President McKin'
ley and then declared for the selec-
ton of President Roosevelt. The
Roosevelt plank follows: BE-
/ -, For Roosevelt IN 1904. ~.
1--WE give to President Roosevelt
and his administration our heartiest
approval and most cordial support.
We recognize the fidelity with which
he has carried out the policies Of his
lamented predecessor and the rare
capacity he has shown in meeting the
new possibilities of his great Of
fee. We look forward with conf
dence to his election to the presidency
in 1904, and so Tar as this convention
has the power We pledge thereto the
earnest efforts of the Republican
party of this state" ...........
On protective tariff and trusts the
platforms said:
1.-THE greatest national issue is the
maintenance of prosperity. The
pledge given by William Mckinley OF
WI duu eoOOu WoSSo boSSNa
on the passage OF a protective tariff
bill, has been fulfilled. The integrity
of the protective principle must be
preserved. That principle is required
to maintain the highest scale Of Amer.
lean wages and the supremacy Of the
American workshop.
Condemn Harmful Combines.
"While we would encourage bust
ness enterprises which have their OBJ
ject the extension Of trade and up
building of our state, we condemn all
combinations and monopolies in what
ever form having for their purpose
the destruction of competition in le-
gitimate enterprise, the limitation of
production in an y field of labor, or
the increase of cost to the consumer
of the necessaries of life, and we
pledge the party to the support OF
such legislation as will suppress and
prevent the organization Of such H.
legal combinations"

roller loose from the blowpipe.
The snapper gathers a small
lump of melted glass on the end OF
E; rod and dexterously runs a mar
row ribbon Of the stuff around the
ends Of the roller, both atthe blow
pipe end and the closed end. The
little ribbons of melted glass cool IN
a few seconds, when they are re-
moved, leaving a narrow zone OF
almost red hot glass around the
rollers at each end. Then, taking
a tool that resembles a soldering
iron, the snapper rubs 1t for a mo-
ment on his forehead, and when
the point of 1t is moistened with
Precipitation he RUS the iron
around the rollers at the heated
spot. The glass cracks and separ-
ates as clearly as If cut with a dia-
mond, the blowpipe Is removed and
the closed cylinder has become a
roller and Is then ready to 60 to
the hattener.
The flattener works In another
part OF the building, where are To-
Gated the fattening ovens. These
ovens are heated to temperature
sufficient to soften the glass so that
It may be rolled out into sheets, A
series of freclay tables placed ID a
circle like the spokes Of a wheel
revolve In the ovens, and OF these
tables the rollers are fattened.
They are placed inside, allowed to
become hot, and then a cold iron IS
run along the Inside from end to
end. The contract Of the iron cuts
the glass. which Is then Strengthened
out upon the table.
The fattener has a number OF
blllets of green wood attached 10
long iron handles, and with these
billets, which are shaped In such a
manner as to do the work expected
of them, he ''irons" the softened
sheet of glass until it Is perfectly
fiat and smooth. The tables inside
the oven revolve, the fattened
sheet Is carried away, and another
roller Is brought into position be-
fore the fattener. AS the fattened
sheets cool they are lifted to a
place on long travelling rack on
which they are by stages removed
from the ovens, being allowed &c
cool as they go. This is done In
order that the glass may not be
shattered by too quick an exposure
to the air.
When the sheets are taken from
the hattening ovens. they sare
lowered with a greasy, dirty look
ling coat of chemicals-soda, potash
Isilicates of the different salts, ETC.
which must be removed, and TO-
this purpose the rough sheets are
placed In an acid bath composed o
hydrochloric and sulphuric acid
more or less diluted. After theil
immersion In this bath the sheet
are taken to the cutting room
where workmen cut them int,
sizes and make them ready for tn
packers. Hardly a scrap OF tn
glass except the rough edges, |
]; wasted. In fact none Is wasted, a
all refuse goes back TO be melted
i After the cutters have finished thei
], work the glass Is packed in boxe
!! and Is then ready for the market.

WINDOW
GLASS
MAKING
A Brief and Comprehensive De-
scription of Methods Of
Manufacture.

People who have glass windows
In their homes do not know that
the glass contains enough arsenic
to make 1t a deadly poison. Glass
makers say that the windows of an
ordinary home contain enough OF
this poison to kill regiment OF
men. The popular suppositton that
glass Is made of sand IS correct
one, but quantity of other articles
enter into Its composition.
Window glass factories are
divided into two departments, a
taukhouse aud pot-house. The
process Of glassmakiug In one OF
these departments Is practically the
same as In the other. In the tank
house the glass is all melted In i'm .
mense tanks which will hold thou
sands of tons. In the pothouse
thu: glass Is made Ii pots.
After the fires are lighted and a
tank Is heated the glass mixture Is
shoveled IN, It includes glass left
over from the former season, glass
refuse and salt cake Arsenic Is
not used In the tankhouse for the
reason that the heat Is so intense
that the drug Is volatilized and es-
capes into the air without entering
the mixture. AS one mixture
melts and flows to one end of a tank
fresh supplies are shoveled In at the
other end. f..,.
The molten mass seethes and
"works" In a manner similar tc
that of a mash In a distillery. From
the salt cake comes salt water tha'
has to be separated from the mass
the easiest way to remove 1t IS te
, burn 1t out: This Is done by throw
Ing stove wood into the tank on TOT
of the molten glass. The water Il
converted into steam which Is de
stroyed by the intense heat from tn
glass. The melted glass IS thet
SKINNED by an automatic skinner
and 1t is ready for the gatherer.
A gatherer thrusts a long stee
blow-pipe into one OF the rings a
the lower end of the tank. II
twists and turns 1t until a SINAI
ball of glass gathers on the end
This ball Is partially cooled, pol
ished by being turned In a box
sawdust and then passed on 10 tn
blower, who heats 1t again until
becomes like taffy. The blowe
swings the ball over a pit that Is I
feet deep and rapidly blows It Int
an elongated, pear shape. When

becomes a perfect cylinder abou

REVIEW Of SATURDAYS GAMES

Twenty-three TO nothing was a popular

Princeton. against Bates. Amherst and
Lehigh, but Harvard's four touchdowns
were scored I'm five minutes less than II
took Yale TO cross Amhersts line four
times. and in ten minutes less than tho
Commute halves played at Princeton.
Harvard has played three games so far
this season, scoring two touchdowns in
the first and adding a third and then
fourth in the succeeding games, the play
ing time being heightened five minutes
In each.
While in Saturdays game against Bates
no startling improvement was apparent.
still there was Improvement and much
of IL over the game played Wednesday.
Yale played all her veterans against
Amherst. which came TO New Haven
coached by ex-Captain Gould OF Yale. As
at Cambridge. most of Yale's Improve
ment seemed In her team play. although
this was more ragged when the substi-
tutes began TO go in.
PENNSYLVANIA bucked UP against Penn
State. from whom the Red and Blues
expected a more serious game. That
Pennsy is not rolling up her old-tinno
scores is in n measure. due to her own
strength OF the minor college teams.
State college rushed the ball more than
i25 yards through Penns line. Such
ground gaining by an opponent has been a
part of each game at Franklin field, and
with her light men the QuaEers prospects
for making a real battle Nov. s, at Cam
bridge, have not frightened.
Princeton's victory over Lehigh did not
mean much TO the coaches, as the men on
the field could not score for 20 minutes,
and II took a fresh eleven against Le-
highs tired one 20 score the four touch

West Point found Tufts hard propo-
