JASPER WARE.
yss Pswsus Pottery Produced -
JOSiah Wodavo0d.

m Pssssus Pottery Prsdvssd -
jssiah Wsdswesd.
Wedgvood achieved his great
fame - the inventor and producer
Of jasper ware. This invention was
the result Of his great love for the
classic art and classic history to
which he vas introduced by Bent
Icy.
Wedgwood was intent on widen
ing the field Of ceramic art and
longed to initiate the canoes Of
Greece and Rome. After years. of
patient and secret experimenting
hs produced in 1775 the jasper ware
% insepsrably connected with his
name and through which much Of
his fortune was acquired.
This ware is of An extremely del
icate texture. Its ingredients are
sulphats Of baryta, carbonate Of
baryta, clay and flint. In the ear
lier pieces the entire body was stain
ed with the metallic oxide used for
coloring. This il known as "soGd
jasper" In 1777 in order to secure
uniformity and evenness in the col
oring Of the fields the later forms
received merely q wash of the me-
talic oxide and are distinguished
BY the term casper Dip"
Every stage of the process needed
the most careful attention. Much
depended upon the: grinding and
mixing Of the materials, still more
On the firing Of the nodded objects.
The process was apparently simple
when it was mastered. The best
modelers were employed to make
the original wax models, many from
life, Others from paintings, prints
and medals. Clay molds were taken
from the wa1 model and fred,
Into these the plastic clay was
pressed. The reliefs obtained there
from were placed IN their colored
bases and while still soft were gone
over by . modeler, who retouched
them when necessary and did . Ger
tain amount Of the "undercutting"
which il 80 beautiful feature Of
al Of the jasper ware of Josiah
,Wedgwood's period. The pieces
were then fred.
Il was not until 1777 that Wedg-
wood perfected his process and be-
came absolutely sure Of his results.
Danger in firing was obliterated
and great height in reliefs made

This part of the state is making
such marvellous progress that the
eyes of outsiders are turned this
way and, from the many queries
coming in, it is very evident that
an influx of settlers and investors
will be on their way here soon.

The big Issue in Hudson County. New

ran really as the candidate Of the lib
eral element. He won ny approximately
1000 over Thomas =. CConnelly, the Re
publican candidate. who had the back
ing of the clergymen and all Others
who desire strict enforcement of the
Bishops law.
Singuarly enough, both the men had
liquor connections Of a sort In their
former records. Kelly used to be the
collector for Jersey city brewery.
Connolly, a machinist by trade, denied
that he had ever run saloon, but ad-
mittcd under fire that he had OCCASION
ally taken charge of a baroom to &C
commodate friend who owned 1t.
His Early Promises.
As soon as Connolly was put up by
the Republicans he promised the Min
sterial Alliance that he would keep
every saloon in the county locked tight
and fast on Sundays. A little later he
came out even stronger on the PROPOSE
tion. He said If elected he would name
for one Of his deputies sam Wilson,
who as the agent OF the Civic Right
eousness Association has come very
near to effectively enforcing the Bsh
ops law. Connolly said he would de-
tail Wilson to the job of enforcing the
law with particular reference to Sab
bath volators.
Kelly, on the other hand, contented
himself with saying he would give the
people what they wanted, the Inference
being that the people didn't want dry
Sundays. on these lines the fight ran,
ana 1t was the warmest perhaps in the
history OF the county.
Pulled Ticket Through.
The newspaper which champloned
Conneiy's cause made effective use of
cartoons and editorials. The preachers
mostly prayed and preached for the
election of the Republican. but this
morning when the returns were all IN
Kelly was found to have pulled the
whole Democratic ticket through in the
wake of his own screaming victory.

TWENTY MILES IN AN AER0PlAME

Another record has been bro. ken in aeronautics and for anoth. el time something has been done | in the air that was never done before.
 We have heard much lately ot the achievements of the Wrights and others. but on last F, ,iday Henry Farman made a new record by flying his aeroplane from Mou melon to Rheims in France, a distance of 20 miles. After circ'ing the ascension field once he headed for Rheims and sailed away over the tops of trees in a bee line. He made 20 miles in 20 minutes. Part of the way his machine was three hun- cred feet high
 The distance is about that from Little Rock to Lonoke. We thus see that a possibility is for a man to get in an aeroplane in Little Rock and fly to Lonoke in 20 minutes, much faster time than is made by any train on the Rock Island road. Gazette.
