Stealing:
STEALING Colt:N.—For several weeks past
the drovers have been annoyed by the ab
straction of the corn given to the cattle at
the Avenue Drove Yard, at Lancaster
avenue and Forty-fifth streets. A. few min
utes after the corn was put into the troughs
it was removed by somebody, and in this
way some thirty or forty bushels have been
stolen every Monday morning. A watch
was set this morning and five parties were
caught in the act of stealing the corn. The
prisoners gave their names as Pat Bigeley,
Michael Brannon, Hugh McDonald,
Richard McCarty and Johanna Branm.
They were all committed by Alderman
Allen.
ATTEMPTED ROBBERY IN A POLICE STA.-
saori.—A. man named John Welsh, who
measures about six feet three inches and
was respectably dressed, went into the
Fifth Ward Police Station on Saturday
night and asked for lodging. He was sent
flown stairs to the cell appropriated for
lodgers. Yesterday morning about two
o'clock he came up, went into the turnkey's
room and put on a new overcoat belonging
to the turnkey. The latter came in about
the time Welsh was departing and stooped
him. He was then put into a prisoner's
cell, and after a hearing before Ald. Butler,
was held in $BOO bail for larceny.
A ROUGH. COUPLE. —Two men went into a
tavern at Twenty-foarth and Coates streets,
- yesterday afternoon, and raised a row.
'When they got on the street again, Offi
cer Edwards undertook to arrest them,when
he was turned upon and assailed. A new

committed by Alderman Hutchinson.

SubinKr BALL Pravrisci.—By playing
ball on Sunday afternoons a lot of juveniles
have been annoying the residents of Ninth
and Market streets for aeveral weeks past.
Yesterday the police made a raid on the
youngsters and captured five. The trays
Were all held to bail to keep the peace.
JAPAN.—Dr. McGowan recently delivered
a lecture in San Francisco upon "Japan and the Ja
panese," in which he said: "The geological formation
of the mountains is generally igneous in character,
with the superimposition of limestone, sandstone, and
coal measures." An interesting aeries of lectures on
the Pennsylvania coal fields could be delivered, with
a special allusion to the excellence and cheapness of
the coal sold by W. W. Alter, 957 N. Ninth street, and
Sixth and Spring Garden streets.
IN EUROPE the use of Silver Ware for the
household is confined almost entirely to the wealthy
criassea, but in this country there are comparatively
few families too poor to possess some articles made of
the precious metal or plated with it. As the country
has grown prosperous, so have the middle classes ad
vanced, and with that advance indulges in the luxury
of plate. until now silver is more universally used In
this land than in any other country on earth With
the increase in the consumption of silver, we have
Made a steady advance in the art of working it. since
the days of Benevento Ca 111ni, Europe has boasted its
great silver working artists, but whatever the condi
tion of the art in Europe, the fact remains that it nes
made leas progress there during the last 50 years than
on this continent.
The most celebrated establishment in this country,
for the manufacture of Silver Plated Ware is that at
N. E. coiner of Ninth and Chestnut streets; the finest
and most expert artist are there engaged in produc ng
new,beautiful and unique desigus. all the members
or the old firm o. John 0. Mead ,fr, Son are bare, and
the goods are n anufactured under their infinediate
supervision. Special attention is given to the plating
of hard metal goods, which for durability and beauty
are fully equal to the far famed Sheffield ware, while,
-.when the large amount of sliver used is considered,
they are much cheaper.
Persons who desire articles of Silver Plated Ware for
holiday and weeding presents, or for household use •
will serve their own interests by calling at the N. E.
corner of /V inth and Chestnut streets.
MR. GEORGE WALIcEB, of 47 Beach
street, New York, for several years engaged in selling
lock Stitch Machines,testilled before the Commission
er of Patents in a recent case as follows:
Q From your knowledge of the leading Sawing Ma
chines In general use what is your opinion as to the
merits of the Grover & Baker Machine?
Lamaider it an 'A No. 1" Family Sewing Ma
chine, simple in its construction, and easy of operation
—the.work that it does is more substantial than any
other machine. That comprenends all I can say, I
think: ilia less liable to get out of order.
Q. As regards the stitch made by this machine, what
are itS relative merits as compared with the lock
stitch? - •
- A. It is less liable to rip if stitch becomes broken
and is more elastic than the lock stitch and if the
seam requires to be ripped.it is more easily unraveled
Than the lock stitch. Pe sons who make themselves
equally familiar with both (the lock stitch and Grover
Baker stitch) would give the Grover & Baker the
preference.

ances the number of applications which will

be unusually large. One will be made ask
ing for an act chartering a ferry company to

application will be made for a supplement
to the act entitled "An Act to Incorporate

other for a supplement to the act incorporat
ing the Gloucester Turnpike Company. An
other to incorporate a company to construct

THE BOYS IN BUJ - E.—This efficient body
of veteran soldiers, who did stud), active ser- -
vice in the late political campaign, have re
solved themselves into a military organiza
tion. They number some three hundred
men, have ordered their uniforms, and
leased Campbell's Hall, at the foot of Mar
ket street, for a drill room. They have suf
ficient-membership to form a veteran bat

their bravery on the field of battle.

many gentlemen spoken of in connection
with - the next speakership of the New Jersey
House of Assembly, the name of Hon. G.
W. N. Custisoof Camden, stands conspicu

better chance than his opponents. He
would makes judicious and efficient officer.

elected Republican candidate, has entered
upon the discharge of his duties. Notwith

It is formed of a mbination of cast-iron hollow
spheres—each eight inches In external diameter, and
three eighths of an Inch thick, connected by carved
necks,and rebate machine mad ejoints,held together by
wrought-iron bolts with caps at the ends. The form is
the strongest known; its strength to resist internal
pressure:very great—unweakened as it is by punehing
or riveting, which lessens the strength of the wrought.

nder pressure which might cause rupture in ordin
ary boilers, every joint in this becomes a safety valve.
No other steam generator possesses this property of
relief under extreme pressure without Injury to itself,
Al'd thus preventing disaster.
It is not seriously air. cted by corrosion, which so
soon impairs the strength of the wrought Iron boiler,
It has economy in fuel, equal to the best boilers.
It gets up steam quickly, avd . with little 'het—pro
duces superheated steam without separate apparatus,
and Is not liable to priming or foaming. •
It is easily transported, and may be taken apart so
that no piece need weigh more tram eighty pounds. In
difficult places of access, the largest boiler may be put
through an opening one :loot square. It is readily
cleaned inside and oat. Under ordinary circumstances
It Is kept free from permanent deposit by blowing . the
water entirely out under fall pressure once a week. It
requires no special ski. lin Its management. Injured
parts can be renewed great facility, as they are
in.iform In shape and size. When renewed the entire
boiler remains es good as new. The greater part of the
boiler will never need renewal, unless unfairly used.
A boiler can be increased to any extent by simply
adding to its width, and being the multiplication of a
single term, its strengh remains the same for all sizes.
It has lees weight and takes less than one-half the
ground area of the ordinary cylinder boiler, without
belt , g increased In height.
Any kind of fuel may be used under this boiler, from
the most g.xpensive, to refuse coal dust.
