On last Saturday afternoon at about threo

Brlan, closed her eyes in that last long sleep
that knows no waking this side of tho tomb.

ha Ing reached tho ripe old ago of seventy-
three years. She was a kind and affection
ate mother and a true bclleycrln tho power
and mercy of nim who "moyes In a mys
terious way His wonders to perform." Kind
and gentle to all with whom she came in'
contact she had hosts of friends who mourn
the loss of a truo christian disciple.
Mrs. Lydla O'Brlan was one of tlio fam
ily of the late George and Elizabeth Hand
work; she was born in Heidelberg town-
shlp, Lehigh county, on the sixteenth day
oi February. A. D. 181D: on Marcli '20.
1833, she was united in marriage to Samuel
O'Brlan, of Lancaster county, this state,
by whom she had soven children, three girls
and four boys, two of whom survive .Vrs,

AMONG THE WAGE WORKERS,

A glass factory will probably be eslab
lishcd at Denver, Col., by Isaac Long, of
Pittsburg. He says Colorado has n good
material of manufacture ns any place in tho
country. Ho thinks the tank system will
bo the coming method of manlifacturo. He
believes that Colorado milts would have a
market for 1,6000,000 boxes oT window glass
annually in Mexico, Texas, Wyoming, East
Oregon and Washington Territory. Kline
says that the reason 1,500,000 boxes aro 1m
ported yearly Is because tho Jersey and New
York manufacturers not haying the good
material their output soon fades.
The Journal of United Labor says: 'Rcp-
rescnlativcs of both the great political
parties totally ignore the means by which
labor has bettered its condition in the United
States during the last twenty-fivo years. The
mechanics and laborcrs.who are to-day receiv
ing the highest wages, working tho shortest
hours and enjoying lo Hie largest degree the
privileges to which they nre entitled, are
llione who havo been wise enough to protect
themselves by through organization.'
Tlio San Francisco Bulletin thinks that
as that city's ability to built first-clats iron
ships, as was- shown in the manufacturo of
tho Charleston for the Government, has been
demonstrated, tho city may hcroaflcr build
vessels for the Governments of China, Japan,
rgcntine. Republic, Chili, Brazil, Central
mcrica countries, Mexico and Peru, instefd
of England and oilier European rountncHj
because that town is nearer home.
Tho Lehigh Valley people have ceased
almost entirely the use of soft coal. The
heavy mountain work Is done witli engines
having tho Mitchell grulc box, in which
buckwheat coal is burned. The coal costs
less than soft coal and gives just as good re
sults in the generation of steam, and is easier
for the firemen and more pleasant for the
passengers.
Farmers around Wilkcsbarrc, Pa., want
protection against Jersey and Delaware
