The Manufacture of Pins.

In 1915 a prize was given to the
colonist of Carolina who produced
the first native pins and needles. Dur
ing the war of 1912. when, owing to
restrictions upon commerce, the price
of pins rose to the enormous sum of
81 per paper, the manufacture was
actually started in the United States,
but does not seem to have met with
success, as the enterprise was soon
abandoned. The industry was not fair.
ly started in this country until the
year 1886.
The early pins in this country, as in
England, were made with globular
heads of fine twisted wire, made sep
arately, and secured to the shank by
compression from a falling block and
die. These old pins had the misfor-
tune Of often parting with their heads.
1t was to overcome this difficulty that
the attention of early inventors was
directed. The solid headed pin, in
common use today, took the place Of
the old fern about 1910.

SENATOR GORMAN'S BLUNDER.

Mr.. German has made one more
of his colossal blunders in his at
tack on the administration S Pan
anna Policy" He is getting famous
for such things, and as he did
some years ago at Chicago, by his
recent move, he has about disposed
of his Presidential possibilities.
What was characterized by several
Of the Baltimore papers as wonder
fully shrewd, has turned out just
as all patriotic people thought
mere peanut politics. His speech
in the Senate had barely reached
that portion of the country, where
it was supposed he would be ex-
ceptionally strong, when the echo
answers back go way back and
set down" The Legislature of
Louisiana challenges Mr.. German S
effort to block the wheels of pro-
gress by ali unanimous instruction
for its Senators to vote for the
treaty. The Governor of Georgia
in public address, speaking for
the people of that State, stands by
President Roosevelt, and the signs
of the times i'll other portions of
the south shows which way public
sentiment is on this important
question. No, it was not even an
ordinary shrewd move for one who
has the Presidential bee in his bon
net, and wanted an issue in these
modern times. We don't believe
Tim Sullivan of New York would
have been guilty of the like.

OSCAR G. MURRAY MADE PRESIDENT

Elected President of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad System.
The directors of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company have
elected Oscar G. Murray president,
to succeed L. F. Loree, resigned.
The election took place in Phila-
delphia Tuesday afternoon. and
Immediately after the election the
directors wired their congratula-
tions to Mr.. Murray.
Mr.. Murray's election followed
the resignation of Col. L. F. Loree,
who rendered his resignation sew
eral days ago to become president
of the Rock Island.
Mr.. Murray was born at Bridge
port, Conn, on May 20, IS47. He
entered the railway service in 1872
as a ticket agent of the Galveston,
Houston and Henderson Railroad.
He was with the same road in va
rious positions to general freight
and passenger agent until 1880
when he went to the Gulf, Colorado
and Santa Fe Railroad in the same
capacity.
The next year found him traffic
manager of the Missouri Pacific
Line in Texas. which position he
held for five years, when he was
transferred to St. Louis as traffic
manager of that district. From
1866 to 1868 he held the same po-
sition with the Cincinnati, Indian
apolis, St. Louis and Chicago Rail
road and its successors. In 1892
he was made second vice-president
of the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chi.
cago and St. Louis Railroad.
In 1896 he was appointed receiver
of the Baltimore and Ohio Bail
road, and throughout the receiver
ship was one of the receivers with
Mr.. John K. Cowen. On Februa-
ny IS, 1896, he was made first vice
president of the same road, which
position he help until his election
as president.

In this way the lady of the house

he had lost his reason when he

He sought his solitude an ardent
Democrat. While dwelling upon
the past and inveighing against
the cruel fate which had deprived
him of woman love, a new party
was born, whose slogan was liberty
to all, and whose standard was not
of that ephemeral kind to which
he had been devoted while fight

party; but a standard that stood
for something and that inspired
men to do something.
Thomas was a member Of Con-

He was more pupil than leader,
but he was fully alive to the needs
of his country and to the demands
of the party whose cause he had
embraced.

THROWING THE LAssO.
The Manner In which the Rope Il
Handled by an Expert.


Handled by an Expert.
"a mistaken impression prevails ia
the mind of the public in regard to the
manner In which a lasso is handled, "
Gays an expert. The Idea that the loop
is always swung around the head be-
fore making cast, especially when
the roper Is on foot, IS erroneous. No
man OF experience ever makes a cast
N this fashion from the ground in
practical work. There are several rea-
sons why he does not. One of them is
that the movement is likely to brighten
the stock, especially horses; another
that he may have to wait some min
utes before favorable opportunity
occurs for making cast. He knows
that better results are obtained by
holding the rope as unobtrusively as
possible, even keeping it concealed
from the object of capture.
"On the contrary, however, when
mounted and in pursuit it is absolutely
necessary to swing the loop over and
around the head, for the cast must be
made with the greatest possible force
IN order to overcome not only the for
ward movement of the pursued, but
also the action of the wind should that
chance to be against you.
'As to the manner of casting, some
'ropers' cast with a quick, jerky move
ment of the hand, seeming to use the
arm very little and the body not at all
Others employ body, arm and hand
Both methods are effective when per
