miles of drainage is bringing iu sewerage to
the surface of the body the necessity tor fre

Tic First Plate Glass.
; The first plate glass made id Tiutier Wft 8
cast at the works here last Saturday after
noon. One of the furnaces has bad 6re in it
tor some time and on Saturday a few pots of
the necessary mixture were ready for casting.
To do this, the pot is yanked ont of its warm
climate, slid upon a car and iuu to the casl:
ing-table, which has a cast iron surface of
about 12x20 feet. Here the pot is elevated by
a ciane, its molten contents emptied upon the
table, an iron roll weighing perhaps five tons
rpljs over the top of table, the sheet is hard
ened iu » foment and ready for the anneal
ing oveu. The Ui,lc ',3 tj;en rnn to the oven,
the sheet slid into it and Uie Wew stairf 99 -1
heated, and the sheet stays there for two
days. It is then cooled off and taken to the
grinding machine—an immense horizontal
S-Jjeel revolving one way while two smaller
discs abOyd jt revolve the other way. Here
the pis'® i» fasted Jp the large disc, the
smaller ones adjusted, sand is i»fo 9 n QfX fbp
plate, and the machine put in motion, and
tlie plate ground in about eight hours, when
it is ready for the polishing table. The pol
ishing table has * fsptjou of its own, and
works in connection with b»ji{}ng blocks,
to»md with felt, and a polishing powder.
After being polished the sheet goes to the
cutting room and tLeq to the packing room.
Plate glass is made of a mixture of white
sand, soda-ash, lime, sulpbaf.e of soda and
salt, and each manufacturer has his 09a pro ;
portions or "mix." That is bis secret. One
of the heaviest expenses connected with its
manufacture is the making of the pots.
These are large things about four feet high
and as many in diameter. The clay to make
them comes from the vicinity of St. Louis,
£r.? pot. have to be built up in pieces, and
their average Is blit eighteen days. They
are made in the brick building of 1 his pstal}-
lishment.
Ten sheets, about Gxl2 feet, and about
nine-sieipsnth of an inch shick were cut last
Saturday, The yo.-fe; here are no tyet com
pleted and this w?s but «n .experimental
The plate glass business will, no doubt, be a
very profitable one. The large works at
Tarentucn are said to have orders ahead that
will keep them busy for the next five years

Tarentum is said to have established the first
Works in this country at New Albany, Ind.,

St. Louis, Tarentuui ajjd Butler are the only
ones in this country, excepting a swall plant

of glass ever made in this country is that in

among the patients he secured was Miss Bar
bara Wise, who attended the same chiirch.
Dix»torir:£ and love-inaking seemed to go to
gether with him, and he and Barbara engag
ed to marry, but Miss Mary obj*(:led tQ the
match so strenuously that it W"s broken off.
The Dr. continued at Mr. Boyle's place till
sometime in February, when be went to
Pittsburg and brought home a five gallon jug
of whiskey "for medicinal purposes." This
Mr. B. objected to, and he moved his head
quart* rs to the Gilchrist House, next door,

had these reports finnfirmed, and then wrote
to their sister at Voijngstown. telliug her of
their discovery, but she was sick iq bed and
her alleged husband got the fetter and read
it.. Nothing was heard of Barbara for a
week or two when word came that she was
very sick, and Mary went on to nqrse her,
but as soon 1* the f)r. heart) that she was
coining, he left lor p?rU unknown, leaving
hi» npare wearing apparel behind hiin.
lie got no money froru Barbara, excepting
about &50 that she had iu her purse. Before
going to Pittsburg to meet and marry liira,
she drew S3OO from the bank here, but sewed
it iu the seam of her petticoat and he did not
find it. Sheriff Kramer beard of the case,
and hsd Cass. Wise telegraph Barbara at
Youngvtown, that his wife was very sick and
for her to coiqe right back, thinking that the
doctor would follow her here, but tl)e doctor
had read Mary's letter, and Barbara was nick
herself bo that echeme failed.
The Dr. is described as beingaiqin of
about 47 years of age, l|orid complexion,
short and stoqt, light hair and eyes, smooth
face, and wore glasses. He was also some
thing of a horse-doctor, and ijoctored several
horses in the southern part of Butler twp.,
and is reported as having tried to make a

—exchange remarks that people in this
State who carry large amounts ot iire insur
ance would do well to procure a copy of the
law passed at the recent session of the Legis
lature on the subject of underground insur
ance and give it careful study. There is a
reasonable ground for the belief that under
its provisions the party paying premiums to
companies not authorized to do business in
the Sjtafe afe amenable to punishment as the
agent or uraklr yirUfjff sijclj rjsks, a r jd they
may escape heavy fines and imprisoasieift
by posting themselves. The State authori
ties are determined to break up the under
ground insurance business, hence the severe
provisions of the new law.

tbe animal, ani last night shipped
her away. She ha 3 a young colt,

The animal was left in a livery barn
here until about mid-night, at which

—J, W, Iceland and Frank How
ard, colored barbers of New Brigh
ton, had an altercation
which progressed from
blows to revolver shots, and resulted
in Leland being shot in the heart
and abdomen, and instantly killed.
Howard also had a close call, as the
murdered man made a desperate effort
to shoot him, but was saved by the
failure of the cartridge to explode
Leland was GO years old, came to
New Brighton in 1854, and had
been a prominent barber of the
county for 30 years.
—A lively stir disturbed the pres
ent peaceful air in legal circles on
afternoon. It seems that an
information had been made by James
Kinsley before 'Squire Lec against
Michael McCrea. charging the forgery
of a power of attorney. At the hear
ing which was fixed for Monday
afternoon, the prosecution and his
witnesses appeared, but no testimony
was offered by the complainant and
the defendant was discharged- Be
fore the ptQSCculor had left town he
was arrested on aa iaformatiaa made
by Mr. McCrea before 'Sqiire Faulk
for perjury, the complaiuant alleging
tfcat tfoaj; priffie e n pomtnittpd
in making the first information
The defendant will have a hearing on
Saturday, August 6th. The difficulty
grows out of an oil transaction, and
the parties reside in Sugarereek and
East Franklin townships. Two wo
men contributed to tfie scene wittj
jively conyersatio&al powers and at

General Notes.
—Arkansas is making quite a splut
ter aboqt antimony mines ia ber ter

States have turned out to be anti
money mines, but no one boasts
about them.
—r-The railroad horror, at St.
Thomas, Qntariq, a fpw days since, in
which several persons were killed and
many more seriously wounded and
burned, is said to have beeu caused
by whiskey; the engineer was drunk
and the conduotor partly so.
great temperance contest in
Texas, which has been seven times
hotter than political campaigns have
wont to be heated, comc3 to a close
to-day (Thursday), when the election
takes place The result will be await
ed with a good deal of interest.
—Th e English language, when
used with skill, is very musical. We
may cite aa an example the words of
Congressman Mills in a Texas speech.
He remarked that "Hell is full to
overflowing with such political
preachers as Dr. Carrol," the prohib
itionist, In reply the editor of the
Waco Advanoo referred to Mills in
rhvthmio phraae as "this foul mouth
ed infidel, snake eyed monster." The
people of Texas are gifted with great
command of the vernacular.
—Having tired of Atlantio City
the Revenue Commission will next
meet at Crosson Springs. The com.
mission is wise in doing its work just
where plenty of o/one ejn be found
Senator Cooper proposed the other
day to treble the tax on porporation
gross receipts. Tbis surprised the
bjg companies somewhat.
—The Governors of all the States
will meet in New York, August 23,
to devise some uniform plau for the
Burrendar of ponvipts escaping from
one state to another. The federal
constitution provides that when a
person charged with crime escapes in
to another state ho shall be returned
to the state where the alleged crime
was committed, on the demand of the
executive of that state. Thu formal
ities required to bo observed before
the fugitive is given up to the local
authorities often retard justice, are
needlessly expensive and tend to
increase crirqe throughout the coun
try. fhe procedure is fettered by
relies whbhuro not uniform in all the
states. If the conference of the gov
ernors will result in a set of regu
lations which are adopted in all the
Btates, the assembly will do a good
thing for the Nation.
