THE BIGGEST GLASS BOTTLES.
They stand SIX Feet High and Will
Hold ~ Gallons Each.


Hold ~ Gallons Each.
From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The biggest glass bottles ever made
in the world were turned out recently
in the plant of the Illinois Glass Com
pany at Alton.
The biggest glass vessel ever made up
to this time was fashioned in the glass
works in Alton, and was of the type
known commercially as ''carboy," be-
ing a glass bottle of twenty gallons
capacity, surrounded by a wooden box.
Some of the most skillful of the blow
ers conceived the idea of making a big
bottle for exhibition at the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition. The Hook wine"
type was chosen and a large wooden
mold was built in which to blow the
big bottle.
Several bottles were made during the
first attempts, a mold being used TO
give shape and the hot glass being
blown inside of the mold.
Alonzo Miller made the first bottle.
Other glassblowers then sIrove to out
do him and attempted to make a big
bottle without a mold in order to give
it greater size. Valentine Reininger,
Jesse Steelman and John Metz under
took the task, and with only a shaper
to fashion the bottoms they blew ves-
sells capable of holding forty-flve gal
Ions each. 1t was task of one hour
to make each bottle.
Forty pounds OF molten glass We're
drawn from the furnace and shaped on
the end of a long blowpipe. In order
to accomplish the feat the glass had
to be reheated many times in the fur
mace as it was being blown in a plaS-
tic state to the size and shape desired.
Many unsuccessful attempts to form
the big bottles We're made before COM
plete success was met.
All the air used in blowing the bot
ties made, about IL 900 cubic inches in
each, was supplied from the lungs of
the blowers who were making them,
one man blowing a bottle alone The
chief difficulty lay in keeping the neck
of the bottle hot and plastic, as it was
cooled quickest by the iron blowpipe
Many bottles were made, but most of
them were spoiled in the operation and
were discarded. The four perfect ones
which have been preserved for exhibit
ton stand nearly six feet high and are
about sixteen inches ACROSS at the bot
toms.
The making of these big bottles Is
recognized as a masterful feat in the
glassblowing trade. Glassblowers from
all parts of the country have taken
great interest in the experiment and
the makers of the bottles have received
many inquiries as to their methods 1t
is new line for rivalry, as it was here
tofore considered impossible to make
such big bottles because of the diff
culties in the way of the blowers ham
ding. such large mass of molten
glass.
Valentine Reininger, one of the old
est blowers in the Alton factories, is
counted one of the most ski1lful in the
country. He has fashioned many Gu
rious works in glass and is an artist In
his trade. The three men who succeed
ed best with the big bottles-Steelman
Metz and Miller-are proficient masters
of their trade

Quinn Thinks Dredge Could Ac-

Harbor.
The Ocean Steamship Company has
joined in the movement to secure the
government dredge Cumberland, now
in this port, for work in Savannah
harbor. A communication from w. H.
Peasants, vice president and general
manager of that company, which was
a short while ago addressed to the
War Department, has been referred to
Lieut.. Col James b. Quinn, engineer
in charge of the Savannah district.
Col. Quinn will indorse the request
of the company, and his Endorsement
will be forwarded to the department to-
day. Col Quinn thinks that the re-
tention of the dredge in these waters,
after the necessary repairs are made,
would result in obtaining an even finer
harbor than Savannah now enjoys.
The movement to secure the big
dredge has also been taken up by the
River and Harbor Committee of the
Chamber of Commerce. After con-
ference with Col. Quinn they were di-
rected to address their communica-
4iop 70 the deDartment at Washing
ton. 1t is now thought that the
chances to get the big sea-going ma
chine for Savannah harbor are good.

Penny weddings" or, as they We're

in the festivities. and so great was the

HOTEL MANNERS.
Some Interesting Phases Noted in
European Lands.
From London Travel.

From London Travel.
Travelling on the continent generally
involves not merely a complete change
of scene. but also, for most of US, the
substitution of hotel life for that with
which we are familiar in our own
homes.
AS a rule, those who have never been
abroad before set their aspirations in
this respect good deal too high, while
they are apt to ignore altogether the
fact that hotel life carries with it any
obligations on the part of the guests
themselves.
And herein lies one of the most con-
spicuous differences between the eX-
perienced and the inexperienced trav-
eler. The latter expects to find in a
hotel all his accustomed home COM
forts, plus a good many quite unac-
customed Injuries, and when the facts
fall short of his expectations in either
of these respects he is very prone to
make a fuss. The experienced trav-
eler, on the other hand, having learned
that imperfections are the rule In this
world OF ameliorations, takes the draw
backs for granted. and welcomes with
joy whatever strikes him as worthy of
As extreme instances of these two
opposite points of view. the following
cases may be quoted. The first was
that of a lady who, on arrival at the
Hotel Russia. in Rome. was furiously
indignant because the facchino who
was carrying her luggage upstairs
had as she expressed 1t, the imperti-
nence to address her in an unknown
language. AS a matter of fact, he
asked her in Italian the number of her
room The second case was a travel
er who was proposing to pass the
night at Njegus, a tiny village between
Cattaro and Cettinje, in Montenegro.

THE END OF LA CHARTREUSE.
Scenes at the Closing of the Famous
Monastery.
From the New York Post.

From the New York Post.
The excitement of the Catholics in
France over the present expulsion of
the religious orders, which has already
resulted in riots. in different parts of
the country, and in the resignation of
several army oficers-among them the
distinguished colonel of the Fourth
Dragons, Monsieur de Coubertin-is
particularly apparent here in Greno-
BILE and the surrounding Dauphine re-
gion.
For a time it was supposed that the
Carthusians of La Grande Chartreuse
would not be included in the forced
exodus of the "religieux" because of
the financial benefits accruing to the
country from their presence. When,
however, Monsieur Combes, the de
froque," as he is invariably called by
the Catholics, owing to his being an
ex-priest, sent forth the order expell-
ing also the monks of La Grande
Chartreuse, the Indignation was great
in all Dauphine.
In Grenoble especially. these monks
are highly regarded and beloved Their
liqueur factory al Fourvoirie gave en-
ployment to a large number of work
men; they built and sustained free
hospital at st. Laurent-du- Pont as
well as an asylum for deaf mutes near
the monastery. 1t is claimed that a
large part of their immense revenue
was given away yearly in charity.
The majority of the monks have all
ready gone, taking with them their
treasures, their library, their chroni-
cles, ana the appliances for making
their precious liqueur. Only a handful
of brethren remain to represent their
order in that bleak monastery high up
in the mountains of the Massif de la
Chartreuse, where since 1859 Carthu-
sian monks have lived, prayed, and
died. 1t is true this handful had been
carefully selected. and only able bod
led men, keen-witted, and of cool
judgment were allowed to remain to
hold the monastery against the gov
eminent. They have barricaded the
doors, no one is given exit or entrance:
they are prOYisioned for three months,
and IL Is their ayowed intention to
compel the government to forcibly
eject them, and by SO doing, said Fa-
thor Clovis, violate in our persons the
rights OF citizens"
As the the expulsion was expected
10 take place on the night of the 18th,
a small party of Americans. myself
among the number, determined 10 visit
without delay the famous monastery
before its extinction.

ChamberIain's stomach and Liver
Tablets Better Than pills.
The question has been asked, In
what way are Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets superior to pills
Our answer is-They are easier and
more pleasant to take, more gentle
and mild in their action and more re-
liable, as they can always be depend
ed upon. Then they cleanse and in
vigorate the stomach and leave the
bowels in a natural condition, while
pills are more harsh in effect and their
use is often followed by constipation.
