sists in an improvement in the manu-
facture, Of stuffs or objects which imi-
tate fur, plush or velvet, or for use as
carpets and the like. The process

and slab is made to undergo a sur
face melting so as partially TO free the
hair or fibers on one side; then suit
able glue or cement is applied upon
this surface.
A sheet of flexible material acting

Canal Acqueduct Collapses.

The big stone acqueduct that carried
the Chesapeake & Ohio canal over the
creek at Williamsport.
Nd, collapsed last Thursday morning
and again stopped navigation on this
old waterway. The acqueduct had
been in bad condition for some time
past, and there was little surprise
at its destruction. Boat No. 10. in
charge Of Captain Frank Myers, of Big
Pool, had just entered the acqueduct
when the wall began TO sway. He
mad a safe jump TO the bank, at the
same time shouting to the driver to

saved. As the BERN side of the wall
lei. out, the rushing water carried the
canal boat with il and it fell into the
creek, where il later sank TO the bottom

not be salvaged. This is the thirC
oad break in the canal since navigation
opened early in April, and the boat
men are considerably discouraged, as
some of them have not been able to
arm anything to speak Of
About one hundred feet of the stone
masonry collapsed, though the arches
remained intact. The canal officials
made an examination as quickly as
possible and after consultation decided

constructing a wooden trunk. A con-
actor undertook the Job, and with E
supply OF the necessary lumber avail
able in Williamsport and Hancock, the

rapidity. II is believed that the Irur <
will be so far completed that boats can
pass by Sunday or Monday.

be made this summer for the recon

crete, the work to be commenced as
soon as navigation closes next fall.
