Alnest every body knows that the furnaces and lactones of Pittsburg and Tioini'y turn out more steel, iron and glass than those ot any other city in the county; and that itsooaltrade is immense, but Pitte'.'irg has other industries of which little is known by the world in general. Some of these are described in an article by Bion H. Butler in the Pittsburg Times of last Friday, as follows: In the manufacture of cork goods Pitts burg ranks first. The railroads about once » week bring in a train load of cork bark ftnd other supplies to the cork works, and carry away as much as they bring worked *p into finished product. The city can make about 20,000,000 oorks a week, be sides nearly 100,000 co-k soles in the same space of time, In addition a great many special articles are made of cork. Bicycle handles are a Btaple and regular produot. So are corset stays. Cork enters into a multitude of speoial things that are made ftt the Pittsburg cork faotories, but noth that is more novel than the pair ot shoes fitted up by one of the city cork factories for a young man short instature. The fellow had a tall girt, and he was looking forward to a danoe to which he had en - gaged to take her. In order that his •tatui* might not show off te a disadvan tage he obtained a pair of shoes much too large, and by having them fitted at the faoiury with all the oork they would hold, admit his feet, he succeeded in get ting enough under his feet to raise him two in height. The manufacture ol cor* in PitWburg employs 1,200 to 1,500 The orude material is brought froi»Ss»m A&d Portugal. Some experi ment., are on foot looking to the produc tion of the cork tree in America. As it takes the tree about 30 years to yield bark jviok enough for commercial uses, tho orop will not bo a large one. At ihe foot of Locust street, in Alle cheny city, is an establishment that has little in .common with the industries thought to be so tzpioal of Pittsburg. It it tin. iarire pianl ol the Pittsburg Brass onrrcany an institution that started in 188G in t'ffo rooms of the Eag'e cotton mill building near the Sixth street bridge. Three ye*-" ago the magnificent big struc ture on Locu«t street was erected and it now makes a staple article—the Pittsburg lamp This in itself is unique in its suc cess; as it has penetrated the globe as tar •a Calcutta and the West coast of Africa. But the company makes a line of onyx tables that is more interesting. It is in teresting also to kaow that the output of the f»i.tor> is the largest "t any in Amer ioa, averaging 1.000 onyx-topped brass tallies every day. , High priced workmen design the vari ous styles of tables, and the work is done, from-ihe casting of the iron and brass to the fini'hicg in gold, plate, in the big building. One exception to the finished work is in the grinding of the onyx. Onyx panv, api'roaching the cornelian in haes. TLd supply ased at the Allegheny factory is bronjrht. from Mexico. Prom the City of Mexw 'tt goes to New York, whence the Pittsburg Brass company send their •uppi/ to Buffalo to be polished and ground to shape. Ho faoilties exist in Pittsburg to cat and polish it cheaply enough for purposes. The daily output of the TPittaLurg company is close to 3,000 pieces a day in tables and lamps, of which inyx constitutes the column of the lamps and the fop of the tables. The tables s«ll in the markets of the world at prices rang ing frcm $4 to SSO. Cabinets on a more elaborate style than the tables ran in price u high as 8100. Onyx as it is found in Mexico is in small pockets, New deposits have to be sought eontinuallr to keep up the supply. Some times .. bice block will be found trom whiih can be cut pieces that will bo worth eight or ten dollars for a pieoe eight inches square In the same block will be other pieces worth not a fourth that much and some that is absolutely valueless. TJO coloring and texts re have all to do with the value. The bigh-priced pieces go in to expensive tables carefully designed and worked out by hand and heavily plated Trith gold. The cheaper kinds are used in tables made of light iron castings and plated with brass. But even the cheapest are handsome. Pittsburg import from Fuboea(an island of the Aegean sea, east of Greece) annually the.material to f nrnish gas for more than i 00,000,000 glasses of soda water, and scarcely a hamlet from Penn sylvania to the rocky mountains goes through the summer without more or less ot tud g'<iß manufactured by the Liquid Carbonic Aoid Manufacturing company, ■srbioh has a faotory in Bonvenue, in the OuJ. The company has factories al so in St. Louis. Chicago, Milwaukee, and the fou. factories supply the bulk oi the soda water gas made in the United Btau>'. concerns exist, but they aro lev in number, and their business is l\icitod on upai6>l with what is done by the operating in Pittsburg. The material imported from Greece is oakiued Grecian magnesite, the purest suaroe in the world of carbonic acid gag It is brought over by the Pittsburg oom f any a »h. t i load at a time. After the gas is driven out the by-product is sold to the .pouhearlh steel makers, a* il withstands the extreme of the heat better than any thing elss they can obtain. CH.vrwCY DErgw is liome from Eu rope. Let the Earth rejoice. The daugh ters of Zioti lift up their voices in songs of joy, and all \merica is glad. Chaun cy is j, living beam of sunlight.

OsK of the Midway attractions of the Atlanta Exposition will be an internat ional beauty show, in which represen tative types of tern de beauty from vari ous of the world will be on view. The Turkish beauty, Haidee Val" lauri, is a. typical specimen of the eu cLanting houris yi Islam. This lustrious Haid»"» boosts that not only can she drink 125 cups of black coffee a day without exciting her nerves, but that she can smoke ioojcigarettes within 1? hours. The dudes aud Johnnies may b; expected themselves be fore th«; in*Tabic Hajdce, HK? "« officer* will get a fixed b<m for poi)(lactiu£ au election, and I'. Till be jbst sr muuh —no more, no less. The l»«t Legislature enacted a law which •a/8 thai "the pay of the judges and in spec'ors at all elections hereafter held •ban be three dollars and fifty cents each at eaoh election no held without regard to time, and the pay of the several clerks to •ach election board ahall be three dollars «ach, wiihout regard to time." Hereafter, according to thift law, the election boards whlcn are compelled to work far into the alection night, and mayhap into the next sorring, will get pay for the day and no A Country of Homes. "The greatest thin* tor a country," says a philosopher, "is for ail of its citizens to hare a home and in this respect oar own country is to bo regarded as the greatest in the world. Our people hare what may be called the fireside instinct in a larger de gree than those of aay other nation. They are pre-eminently home-makers, and the proportion of them who own homes is in excess of that known elsewhere. The his tory of the country from the first is the story of a constant struggle for the own ership of land and multiplication of family heanli-stones. This purpose has been the controlling one in the work of subduing the wilderness and extending the sway of civil ization between the Atlantic'and the Pa cific. The log cabins of the earliest set tlers represented the inspiration which was to insure the development of our unpre cedented resources and the winning of a surpassing order of prosperity. Where, ever American courage, industry and forti tude have been manifested, there have homes been established, and the domestic virtues nourished and encouraged. It is true, that patriotism of the best sort is al ways found where such conditions exist. Those who are part proprietors of a coun try are sure to love it, and to hasten to its defense in a time of peril, as has been so grandly illustrated in our own o ase. There is no other one thing to which we are indebted for otir national welfare and progress more than the homestead laws. That great measure of practical beneficence gave more homes to homeless people than all the rest of the influences at work in that direction during all the preceeding history of the country. It provided an opportunity for which tens of thousands were longing ; it helped the poor and hard working by enabling them to help them selves. Wo are too apt to forge*, that in the absence of this incentive and assist ance, the settlement ol the new West would have been indefinitely postponed. It was the homostead law above every thing else that caused immigration to go beyond the Mississippi and the Missouri, and to fill the waste places with produc tiveness and all the means of comfort and enjoyment. The Government was an im mense gainer by the policy which thus in creased the sources of its prosperity and strengthened the dev®tion of the people to its principles and institutions. A vast ad dition was made to the homes of the coun try in a comparatively short time, and with the homes came churches, schools, newspapers, railroads, and all the other advantages that have contributed so much to our aggregate happiness and greatness. The historians of the future will not fail to dwell upon the importance of this move ment, and to praise the wisdom which made it possible. The New National Park. Since Thursday of l*st week the Govern ment of the United States has been in full possession of the Chickamauga and Chat tanooga field. The nation has another public park, which, while it may not be as grand from a scenic point of view as that of the Yellowstone, yet it will be far dearer to the hearts of the people. Tho park dedicated to the nation that day was drenched with blood in 1863, The unique feature of the dedication was the faot that men who struggled and fought against each other »t Chickamauga thirty-two years ago, met again as brothers, and seal ed a compact by which the last vestige venom caused by the civil war was blot ted ont. Within the limits of this grand historic place of pleasure for the nation to-day were upwards of 75,000 people. Of Presi dent Cleveland's cabinet there were pres ent, Attorney-General llarman, Secreta-y of the Navy Herbert, Secretary of the In terior Smith and Postma3»er-General Wil son. There were a baker's dozen of Gov j I trt rtJntrWH part'in'tHe conflict between the North and South. The ceremonies took place at Snodgraas hill, whose top and side for a mile or mor9 were so thickly covered with dead thirty two years ago that, as the survivors say, one could walk all over it from crest to base stepping from one prostrate body to another. Hours bef jre the exercises began the battlefield was alive with people who had come to attend the dedication. The first event of the day was a display of arms by Battery F. Fourth U. S. artillery. Then there was a battalion regimental drill showing the new tactics and field move ments under command of C«l. Polland. These exercises at arms were of great in terest to the veterans, to the "Kebs" and "Tanks," though the old fellows ex pressed the belief that such taotics would have fallen as timothy before a mower if plaoed against those adopted during the battle ot Chickamauga. Vice-President A. E. Stevenson presid ed over the dedicatory exercises, lie was introduced by Gen, John S. Fallerton, chairman of the Chiokamauga and Chatta nooga National park. Spaeches were also made by Gens. Palmer, Gordon and Long street; and that night in the big tent by Gens. Howard, Wheeler and Warren. The Stewarts. Held a reunion at the house of Mrs. Per melia Davidson in Centie twp, on Sept. 10 in honor of her mother, familiarly known as "Aunt Jaue Motheraf." The last sur viving member of a family of seven broth ers and six sisters—children of Samuel Stewart who settled in or near Portersville and who died about seventy years ago. Aunt Jane having passed her 75th mile stone lately, the friends when they heard of the day appointed, joined by common consent in doing her honor, considering with the uncertainty o{ lite that an op portunity might never occur to do so again. llence there was a general outpouring of the Stewarts from Allegheny, Lawrence and Butler counties. It would be very hard to find a more kind or hospitable home for such an occasion than that of Mrs. Davidson. Everybody was welcome and the freedom of the whole house and its contents wore in a manner thrown open for the comfort and entertainment of the friends and relations. Alter partaking sumptiously ol the good things provided, Samuel L Houston ol Ko6e Point, Lawrence Co. was called to the chair and your scribe made Sec'y. A. G. Stewart was called on for a speech and responded say.ng some very good thing", af'er which Rev. McClelland of Prospect made a very tine address, com mending these social gatherings as helpful and necessary to the wel'-buing ol society. We thought h : s re.uarks very appropriate. T. T Stewart was called on but did not re spond; Alvin M. Stewart of New Castle made a short speech as did also S. Walker Stewart ot Butler, Mr» Arvilla Harrop ol Brnddock and Mrs. Anna Houston of Kose Point. Letters of regret were sent by Jndge Frew Stewart <>t Washington I). C., anil James H. English ol Nortb Keuova 0. The feeling was evidently general to honor Auat Jane and the expressions were not only a hearty hand hhake and Godbless y< u. but also some substanrial pre-ents, ~nd it seemed proper and right, as it not only cheered and made glad the heart of this dear old aunty, hut those that gave their ami cheer added to their own enjoyment by Laving done their duty in honoring her. Thus it is l>y doing our duties cheerfully und heartily as we have opuortunity, our path through life is made more plain and pleasant, and right here let me emphasize, "Don't forget the old folks Love them more and mure A* they turn their longing eyes Toward the Golden Shore." This communication might bo made mnch longer by reciting who some ol the prominent men and women were who made up these families of Stewarts, some V.eing present, but their history is written and being written, and I«-t us seek to make it still better by living as we have light and Knowledge. Rev. McClelland closed with au appropriate prayer W. B. V. SAXON BURG SAVINGS. Mrs. Fred Marterer is in Allegheny visit ing her sons. Miss Graham, of Butler is the guest ol her nephew Mr. E. E.

Mershon has a new road cart, one with a top. which is a good protection against the elements. Last Thursday evening was a reiy warm one, which may account for the slim at tendance at the dance. E E Graham contemplates going to the northern central part of the state, tie has secured a good position. Mr. Campbell, of West Snnbury, has be came quite a frequent visitor to our town.

Maurhoff has some of the largest and nicest potatoes ever grown in this section. They average 1J? pounds, and are as solid as rocks. Everyone seemed pleased with tho music furnished at the la.-t dance. Mr. Wickenhagcn, who by the way is an old time Saxonburger certaiuly knows how to play on a clarionet. Will C. Richey and Kattie S. Beckman of Saionburg were married in Butler, last Wednesday. Both victims are deservedly popular in this community and we wish them every success possible. Miss Lena Wilson who has been in Bolivar N. Y. and Bradford Pa. visiting friends dnring the past two months, re turned home last Wednesday. Miss Jessie Mulholiand, who went to Evans City several weeks ago, returned to Saxonburg last Thursday. Miss Jessie gained 13 pounds, and grew 5-lGths of an inch n bile away. Miss Loa?sa Marterer, who his beea at home wi'ii her parents all summer returned to Pittsburg. lait Friday, and wilt resume her position with Heymer Bro's, mauufao tnring Confectioners.

Mulholiand had jolly sport wailing for bites. They are rather reticent regarding the results, but as they wended their way home about dusk, listi weighing CJ pounds and meas uringl7 iuohes were noticed on tleirstrifg, so it is taken for granted that some of the finny tribe succumbed to the pirsnisive powers of the iadies. Its said tnat Mrs Mulholiand caught tne largest fish and Miss Jessie caught 32 minnows One of our local farmers accompanied by a tailor took a load of potatoes io Alle gheny. After disposing of their produce they started for home but for some reason or other tuicsed the roaJ. They left their team standing by the roadside and started out to find the way to Saxonliurg. The nex* morning the farmer turned up at home soaking wet having gone through a heavy rain storm and then hail to return to find the team, fortunately it was found, it having started for home on its own account and had reached Harry Sarvers placo at Ekastown, Next time the farmer has pro duce for sale, he will send it by train. MUDDYCREEK MUSINGS. It kind of makes a fellow feel tired to see almost every township and village in the county represented in your news items by some contributor except Mnddy Creek. Why is it I can hardly tell; there is no lack of ability—we have men learned in tho law, Doctors, Ministers and those th.it dispense even handened justice, any, or all, might assist, but here they sit. Geu tlemeu have you no friendly criticisms or something to offer whereby your fellow man may be benefitted. We know that we are pretiy well on the road to perb-e --tion in our twp. but there are some things lacking, and some things done and doiug that should not bo tolerated. For instance in our immediate locality known as "Egypt" we have a man the two first letters of bis name are Calvin Mc- Clymonds who will get up at unseasonable hours in the morning and whoop aud hurrah at Ins Jerseys against the peace aud dignity of the neighborhood, besides this he has at times kept up a cannonading late in the evening. This is inexcusable also there has bf)en no Prohibition victorias or anything ot that sort. These things when all summed up amount to a considerable, and the tendencr is that it will lead to cuss words Iroin his near neighbors such as Robert Oliver and Sam Jones two very peaceable men. It should be stopped. I tuinlc gentlemoa it would be better to get out an injunction restraining him from converting a part of the night into day for his osvn benefit when it can bo clearly shown that it is against the morals ol this locality. If Iha court wont grant us a remedy we wiil see that he is preseateil to thfl grand jury and allow them to wrestle with him. We have boldness to say this must be stopped as reforms seem to be in order. Let the gentleman take notice. I>. l-AIRVIE\V FEATURES. Miss Bertha Hawke, of Sistersvillo, W. Va , is the guest of relatives here. Miss Anna Rumbaugh. who recently re turned homo Irora Butler, is on the sick list. Mrs. L G. Mtdison arrived home last Friday after a weeks visit in Clinton, Ohio. Mr. John Bice and family left on Mon day to attend the funeral of Miss Anna Snyder, of Armstrong county. Miss Nannie Mt-Garvey, of Slippery Rock Normal, spent Sunday at her home in this place. Mips Myra Storey spent Sunday with her aunt Mrs. Shira, of Washington, twp. The ladies ot the M. E. congregation will give a festival on the evening of Oct. 2; the proceeds aro to be used in repairing the church building. OBSERVES. So vigorously has the British consalar agent pressed investigation into the Chi | nese massacre of English missionaries in the Kucheng country that it is reported the Chinosa authorities are incensed and will demand his recall. Well, it is not at all likely that Salisbury, with bis strong national, or, we might better say. jingo feelings, will be in any hurry to belittle or discredit a faithful official who has acted promptly, vigorously and insistently. NEIGHBORHOOD NOI"ES. Tho pab'isfcers of the New Castle direc tory say that the tern ias now a popula tion of 18,500 and that it will be increase d by iron works, the tabe mill and the ad dition of the tin mill. The Commercial Hotel, at Meadville. das a bill against the State of SBIB for board for the House Committee on Elec tions while in the An drew-.-Higby contest of 1893. Tne visitors must have been very hungry and spongy. The Messenger offers $o for an itemized bill of what they got at the hotel. The heft of it was probably soda water. The other day a Bradford plumber Part ed out to look for a gas leak under a house in a good old-fashioned way—that is, with a lighted match. He found the leak, but now he needs a new face. Farmer Millan. who lives on the out skirts of Grove City, is exhibiting what he claims to be the bannor potato. It weighs three pounds aad just fills a half peck measure nicely. Attached to the main potato are several smaller ones, all grown to the body. On Monday night while Mrs Chas. Blair of East Brady was on her way to the sta tion with her husband's lunch she stepped on something, apparently a piece of rope, that was lying»on the platform in front of tbe waiting room steps, and on turning around to see what it was found a snake wriggling about in a lively manner. Night watchman Henry was called and finally discovered the snake under the steps. It was killed and found to be a copperhead and contained scores of little ones, all alive, which were also killed. Bellefoute is now certain to have a monument 10 its most citizen, Hon. Andrew G. Uurtin, the 'Old War Governor." The movement, which has been on foot (or some time, has assumed a more definite shape since the Centre County Veteran Club, at its last meeting decided to give S3OO and to appeal to all the G. A. R. posts in the State for aid. Gen. Beaver, who is chairman of the Monument Fund Committee, said that he anticipated no trouble in raising the re quired sum, about $15,000. There is a movement on foot for the consolidation of all tho streot railways in Pittsburg. Capitalists of Xew York, Philadelphia and Pittsbnrg are said to be interested in the schema which involves over 2,000 miles of street railways which a capitalization ot $23,000'000. A snake story that may be true aud may not come lrom Wampum. It is said that R. W. McChesney, a farmer who resides near that place, while removing a shock ot coin from the field found 22 snake eggs in a aest made of corn silk. He put the eggs in a paper box and took them to Elliott's store at Wampum to show them to the proprietor, Mr. Elliott put the box under the counter and Saturday when he lifted the box to show it to same one he discovered that every egg had hatched and the box contained a wriggling mass of small serpents. J. A Flennard, who lives near Mosgrave station Armstrong Co., was accideatly killed while crossing a fence Tuesday evening. It appears that Flennard has a garden patch some distance from his resi dence, and on Tuesday evening he started for the garden to get gome produce, and thinking he might see some game on the road took his gun along. This was all that was heard of him until Wednesday morning, when his absence ca>is3d alarm and a search being instituted his body was found laying along side the fonce with several shots in his body and face. He had evidently been killed instantly. His gun was leaning against the fence. It is thought that in crossing the fence ho first ~; t j. ..o lura went 10 irn the gun ufci witu uio uiu&ae towards him and iu somt. manner the gun was discharged with above results. EVEN Fitzhugh Lee has at last come to the conclusion that this country cannot maintain free coinage alone and that only international agreement can ostablisb and maintain it. Governor Campbell, of Ohio, also announces tho same view It is funny, but true, that every Democratic candidate who is about to make a serious fight for election is now hastening to announce the same view PETERSVILLE POINTS, Saturday Sept. 12 was a banner day for the Sabbath schools on Prospect charge circuit. For some time the members of these schools have been planning for a picnic and Saturday was the day set for it, and was to be held in John Hose's woods near Petersville. At an early hour the Prospect delegation numbering 40 reached the £rove followed by the schools of Ren friew numbering 115, and last cauie the gaily decorated wagons with the scholars from Phillips City numbering UG. A large number of the members and friends of the Petersville school was pres ent, with a number of the White Oak Springs school to welcome the visitors. A table was soon spread by the committee with all the good things that could come from the Butler county kitchens, aud after all had enjoyed the bountiful dinner, they gathered about the organ aud mado the woods ring witb the songs of praise. A fter this Kev. Grimes of the U. P. church and ifr. Quigley, of Phillips City addressed tho schools. The young people then engaged themselves in running foot races, playing ball and in social talk, and wheu the time came to go home, all agreed that they would not soon forget the Sabbath school picnic held near Petersville. Key. Cutter attends conlereuce this week and nis pulpit will be tilled by Kev. Grimes next Sabbath at 3 o'clock.
