Sad Story of Love and Betrayal. News reached the city late Friday night that a I horrible murder had been committed In Salisbury township,this county. Saturdsiy our reporter promieded to the township to gather up particulars. It was soon ascertained that the scene of the trag edy was at Ephraim Berger's, on the road leading from Emus to Bethlehem, about two and a half miles from Allentown, a short distance beyond the half Way House. Ephraim Berger is a man of middle age, and in reduced eircumstnnces, brought about by a fondness for drink. this wife is a daughter of John Yost, a well-known and highly respected citizen, who is in good circum stances. Mrs. Berger, we understood, is In the Insane Asylum at Harrisburg, and the cares of the family, In which are a number of small children, have consequently devolved upon Alice, a young lady in her 10th year, pretty and of an amiable disposition. For some time past a man named Mil ton Hoot, of Bethlehem, has been visiting heras her lover, and it is averred that through promises of marriage he succeeded in betraying her affections. On Saturday week Alice went to Bethlehem, and Boot drove her home in the evening. On Sunday she complained of feeling 111, but her illness did not assume a serious form until Friday towards evening, when she appeared to be in great agony. ' Her sufferings increased terribly in the evening, and her piercing screams or agony could be heard at a great distance. Dr. Yost was called In atten dance, and when he saw her he addressed such questions to her ns elicited the confession that she was enciente, and that Moot had given her "sotne 'stuff'' while they were on the road from Bethlehem on the Saturday evening previous. She died in the most horrible suffering oboist eight o'clock Friday evening. Complaint urns lodged ngainst. Hoot with Squire Jacoby, and a warrant was is sued for his arrest and placed in the hands of Constable Esbenbaell to make the arrest. He proceeded at once to Bethlehem, but op to the time of going to press we have no ndvices that Hoot has been secured. Coroner Bitch commenced the inquest on Tdesday, and the stomach of the girl was brought to Allentown to be analyzed. The household of Berger is in a pitiable condi tion. When we visited it several little children, the youngest only nveuty mouths old, were play ing in the living room, apparently unconscious of the sad fate of their loving sister anti protectress. Friends . of the family were there performing neighborly offices and bewailing the fate of the poor children. The mother had recovered her mind suffielently to be removed from the Asylum, and we believe wag to have been brought house this week, but the sad fate which has befallen her daughter is ill make her return Impossible, as a knowledge of her daughter's death would agaiu derange her mind. The father 'wandered about, It I pouring . not to realize the terrible trage4 that had !teen enacted. He spoke of Hoot as a rascal, but did net appear to be melt grieved at his daughter's sleuth. The relat Ives of Alice spoke of her in endearing terms and expressed their sorrow for the Tintlniely death of Om poor girl.

EPiscurAL Cm:amt.—Grace Church was filled to overflowing, Sunday evening, to hear Mr. arks' sermon, ".\ Indy who lived some time ago in a pleasant and prosperous city on the Jortintr," °On other words," 1.01.'6 trite." '(he sermon WIII3 mainly descriptive, was worded in most beautiful language aud delivered in an eloquent style. Mr, Giles defended both Lot's wife and the people of Sodom against the popular opinion that they were Much worse than all other people because of their terrible destruction. Ile showed that a town whose Inhabitants were all bad ns the rioters who attacked Lot's house in Sodom would be ruined without fire from heaven. Vice Is self-destructive. The vl - cannot live together without decent people to support them and to protect them, against each other. And because the vicious are thus but the power of the well-behaved, though the latter be ever so much in the minority and vice cannot pre vail-without their permission, a town or city Is Justly Judged and condemned by the bad behavior of its worst inhabl,tants. Mr. Gries remarked that If all the cities of the prestmt day that contain ats much evil as Sodom were destroyed by fire "real estate" would be very precarious property. Ile said If all the women as worldly as Lot's wife were treated in a like manner salt would be a drug hi the market, and If the men were turned into salt for the same reason, the first hard rain would make the Jordan nu briny as the Dead Sea. We are glad to hear there Is to be an Improve— ment in the tousle of Grace Churchatud with this additional attraction have no.doubt that the ves try will feel warranted and be to enlarge the building, which could be doubled in capacity by a small outlay.

P.S AT ALLENTOWN The success which 'Mended the manufacture of Iron with anthracite coal at Catromnuna naturally turned the attention of capitalists toward this. region as a desirable place for carrying on the Iron business. The abundance of coal In the Le i high Valley, and the rich HMI numerous ore beds In Lehigh county, alike pointed to this locality as the probable future centre of the anthracite iron trade in Pennsylvania, and the result has shown the far-sighted wisdom of the earlier movers in the Iron business in the Lehigh Valley. The first iron furnaces built at Allentown were built in 1846, and they were two In number. The xentlemen who thus laid the foundation of the present Allentown Iron Works were, Mathew L. Eiven,Joseph Cabot, Mint) Frazier and Daniel E. Wilson, all of Philadelphia. None of these gen tlemen had had ally previous experience in the business, and they were attracted both to the business and to Allentown as capitalists seeking a profitable Investment for their money. They engaged Mr. Samuel Lewin, then a resident of Philadelphia, to come here and superintend the erection of their works and carry on the business. Mr. Lewis was n practical iron manufacturer, having already bad considerable experience in the business In Chester and Lancaster counties. Fur naces Noe. 1 and 2 were built. In 1846 with twelve foot bashes, and trete at once put to work. At ;the time these furnaces were started, tho Lehigh Crane Company, at Calasauffna, had furnaces Nos. 1 find 2 in operation, and was engitged in building No. 8. The business was still compara tively new to the people of thin region, and many regarded It as a hazardous and chimerical under taking, and were free to predict that those who engaged In it would only meet with disaster and ruin. And even after the Iron was manufactured, it was not always easy to find a ready market 'for it; for the foundry men had become so accustomed to using foreign iron that they were suspicious of that of American make, and in sonic cases they refused to have anything to do with It unless they were Insured against any loss. The best practical test of anything Is success, and whet once an en terprise or business has outgrown Its days of ex periment and trial the doubterS are willing, and even anxious to become Its patrons. Slowly and steadily the iron business grew In public favor and estimation, and the works of which we are writing were very successfully carried on by Mr. Lewis for the gentlemen who had started them, until 1811. =9 In 1853 Mr. Pivo, who had been the largest owner in the works, died, and at his death the Allentown Iron Company was (Mined and Incor porated with it capital of :100,000. Mr. Joseph Cabot, one of the original four owners, was chosen President, :Ma Ur. Samos.' Lewis Superintendent, and these two gentletnen have remained at the head of and In charge of the Company's business up to the present time. Mr. Cabot I. 'low eighty years of age, but he gives daily attentkm to the business of the Company, and notice nonbatement of interest In whatever pertains to the theory or practice of iron manufacture. Mr. Henry Cabot Is the Secretary and Treasurer of the Company, and he has held his oilier for a number of years, If not front the date of the Company's incorpora tion. The present caidtal stork of the Company Is :800,000, inmt of which Is held In Philadelphia. The 'number of .stockholders Is vomparathely small, as . the stock Is principally held by these of the original incorporators who still survive, and by the heirs of those who are deceased. I=l The same year In which the Company was in / corporated saw No. 3 furnace erected and set at workout in 1354 No. 4 was built. Furnaces 3 and 4 are sixteen feet bosh and sixty feet high, No. 1 has been enlarged front twelve feet bosh to four teen, and No. 2 is now out of blast for the purpose of being enlarged to sixteen feet bos . b. N 0.2 will be blown In In the early part of next summer, and No. I will soon be enlarged front fourteen feet to sixteen feet bosh. When these enlargements aro completed, the four furnaces will be each sixty feet In height with slxieen feet bosh. The blast is produced by steam power,and is heated by but blast ovens and the waste gases from the furnaces, its wits described in connection with the Lehigh Crane Works. In the matter of blowing engines,. however, there is a difference' as compared with the works at Catasanqua. There ate four large blowing engines at the Crane Works to produce the blast for the six furnaces, and at the Allen town there Is a blowing engine connected with each furnace. The Allentown Works were among the first In the country to apply an engine to each furnace, and thil . plan affords some manifest practical advantages in the regulation of the blast, 6:c. The blowing engines used are forty-eight Inch steam cylinder, eighty-four inch blowing cylinder, and seven and one-half feet stroke. Connected with the works are a machine shop, a blacksmith's shop and a foundry, The foundry, as well as the shops, Is mainly for doing the Com pany's own work, but some work Is done there for outside parties, in eases where tlnvsaine patients used in The Company's work are desired. The original forty Inch steam cylinders of the blowing engines were enlarged in this foundry to forty eight, and tenet of the locomotives used by the Cotupany are built there. . The Magnetic Iron ore Is obtained from the Dickerson and Barker mines in Morris county,N. J. The Hematite ore is obtained in Lehigh auditoria counties, principally in Lehigh. The limestone is procured In part from lands owned by the Com pany, and in part from other quarries In the near vicinity of the Works. The coal is obtained from the ilitzleton region. The aggregate annual con sumption of raw material when the furnaces are all In blast is about 175,000 tone, and the product from this Is about 55,000 tons of foundry iron. When the enlargements of the furnaces now In progress and contemplation have been comple led, the annual consumption and prodtlct will be respec lively 200,000 and 40,000 tons. About four hundred mon are etaployed at the furnace and mines. The iron made Is sold in Phlindelphin, New York . ntid Boston. The Company -owns eighty-two acres of land in the vicinity of the Works and fifty-five houses. ft also nuns and operate , a short line of railroad connecting one of,,thelr Jersey mines with the Morris and Essex road. Thirty-six locomo tives and steam engines are used in earrying on the etallfriTly . i. Lll,llleir., Mid agent lour hundred men are rega tarty employed. Five loymnutives are in constant use 'Mont the Works, two of them for moving the raw material and product and the other three for the removal of the cinders. One of these cinder engines Is the tied one used for that purpose In the United Slates. It was built My (Deice & Long, Philadelphia. The mines In New Jersey are under the special working charge of Mr. James B. Lewis, It ,011 of the Superinten dent. The other nines and the general manage. meta of the whole work are under the care and supervision of Mr. Samuel Lewis himself. Mr. Samuel B.
