was to do in the event that the pugilists
attempted to meet in the ring.

of Chihuahna and the mayor of J a are z
greatly out of join with those of the
American consul. The gist of the Mex

der, bring off the fight and get back to
home territory before the Mexican sol
riiers can reach the battle grouna.

PoMHlbilit v.
There is an inventor w ho is known at
the patent otlice in ii -iiinrton as the
Class Man. His name is (". W. McLean,
of New Berne. X. ('.. and during the last
few years he has obtained patents for
a surprising numlier of devices in glass.
Among these is a glass colV.n. w hieli
is guaranteed proof atrainst decay and
rats. So long as 110 delila-ratr at tempt
is made to smash it, it ought to last for
ever. Another contrixance is a stair
case made wholly of glass steis. land
ings and newel jmsls lieing all of that
material. Yet another is a glass barrel.
But H'rhaps the most remarkable in
vention of the Class Man is a billiard
table of glass.
The day may yet arrive w hen people
will live in glass houses. A patent has
Im-cii secured by other inventors for
glass bricks of a Meuliar pat tern. The
material of which they are cotuosed
lieing a first-rate iioii-ccii.d uctor, 1 hese
bricks w ill keeji t he cold out of a dwell
ing built of t hem. w bile admit I ing 1 he
light. It is claimed that they will ex
clude noisr, lieing hollow. Further
more, the inmates of a glass house nettl
not lie afraid of lieing under too close
observation by neighliors, ina-uim h as
it is not requisite that the bricks shall
le transparent. Thi'V may In- opaque
ground glass, or of any color that may
lie suitable for decorative effect.
Thus liefore iiriny years hae passed
it will lie considered the height of lux
ury, ierhaps. to occupy a dwelling of
glass, (ilass bricks, of course, sire ex
jiensive. People who live in irlass
houses will lie able to afford to wear
clothes of glass. Nearly 20 years ago
there was shown at the Centennial e.
iMisition in Philadelphia a Isiiinet com
lmsed enti.vly of gl::ss. It was a love
of a iKtnuet. The tlowt-rs on it were
g'-kss. ami so vrr: the ribbons, which
1. H.ked like the finest satin. The
patentee of this process deseri lies it as
suitable for the manufacture of neck
ties, shaw ls, table covers, etc.
In fabrics of t his kind a very fine qual
ity of glass is used. It is spun in threads
of exceeding delicacy, and of th-'se
several colors may Ik- produced at the
same time. They are wocn in a loom
of ordinary pattern. AiivImmIv mav
observe that- a thin sheet of glass is
somewhat elastic. The threads em
ployed in w ca ing a re of such fineness as
to lie jierfectly pliable and not at all
brittle. With a gown of glass would
naturally go a pair of glass slippers.
X'ot like Cinderella's. Oh. no! Cinder

ruption. A Pittstiurgb man named Smith has
invented a process for making glass
slippers in molds. They would not do
very well for dancing. There is 110
reason why t glass gow u should not lie
woven of iridescent glass, ami its
wearer would look like an animated
rainbow on a ballroom floor one daz
zling shimmer of ever-chantrinir hues.
Until recently the manufacture of
iridescent glass was set dowu in the
list of the Ii;? arts. But in IsTs it was
rediscovered, and now it is a common
commercial article. It is made by ex
jKising the melted glass to the apors of
salts of sodium. At the MctrojHilitan
museum of art are exhibited great 1111111
liers of 1 Hit ties, plates and ot her art it-les
of glass which were made and used
long ln-fore I hrist was Iniru. They were
dug up in Cypress and elsew here. Many
of them have a ln-antifiil iridescence,
but it is the result of dec-ay. Class will
rot like anything else, and decay has
split t he struct lire of this ancient glass
into laminae or flakes, which interrupt
the light so as to produce brilliant nil.

That is another patent, and the in
ventor suggests that such blinds may
lie mailt of w hatever coiors are desired.

(.lass bedsteads may lie proof against
lightning and bugs, but it is hardly to
Im exs'cteil that glass houses should
lie free from mice. The inmates could
hardly tin 1 tetter than to employ glu-s
traps for the capture of such vermin.
The great advantage of theghiss mouse
trap, according to the statement of the
inventor, is that "if a mouse shou'd
enter t'ie t rati, he may In- seen by others
who chance to come that way, and they
will Ik' inclined to joiu the one inside.

I'p to date the glass mousetrap has
not made itself popular, notwithstand
ing the important arguments in its
favor, and of the most of the other
devices descriln'tl it is unfortunately
true that tiny have not provetl protii
