SIEELTON EXHIBIT OFFFOR 'FRISCO Caßtlnned From First Pace. hard center frog for steam railroad use; solid mannard frob, design 166; spring frog for steam railroad, standard used 'by the Pere Marquette road; solid man nard hook heel switch, made from 151 pound girder rails, for use on street ear roads; one, solid mate, of same rail and construction; one rapid renewable mannard hard center frog, made of 151 ■pound rail. A number of switch stands of the following types: Ned Era, New Century and; Main line. Bocks Used in Panama Locks Those pieces are mounted on small, movable pedestals, or on mahogany bases especially prepared for this ex hibit. Another exhibit is a cast steel rack, such as is in use in the locks of the Panama Canal. Almost 10,000 racks like this sample have -been sent to the Isthmian Canal Company from the steel foundry of the local plant in 1913 art! 1914. One of the most interesting features of tho exhibit will bo the Mayan prod ucts consisting of cast iron and fraught steel parts in extensive commercial use. Wrought material containing Mayari, with a content of nickel and •-.hromiuni, show drop forgings in various »: which indicate the adaptability of Ma'- ari for practically ail purposes wlic • tough and readily worked steel is re quired. A striking feature in the Mavnri ex hibit is a display stand with large ma hogany base and tower effect in four columns, from which is to be suspended one ton of tile May ari pig iron by a one-and-one-eight inch Mayari heat treated bolt turned down to five thirty seconds of an inch. in thickness. One of these 'bolts sustained a lead of 2,300 pounds for one entire week during the A. E. H. M. A. convention in Atlantic City in October, 1914. These bolts are used with all the Mannard hard center work furnished by the Frog and Switch Department. There are many miscellaneous pieces, such as rail braces, rail sections, of various weights; switch stand targets, switch stand lamps, rail joints and spring boxes for street railway Hwitches.

In the Mayari exhibit will be a num ber of hatchets and shovels made eggctt, aged 30 years, by his wife, Minnie Lcggett. The lat ter, whose home is in Upton, Pa., her father being Abraham Lincoln Dula baum, escaped, but was arrested when she returned to her home an hour later. Floyd Sachman. who was in the house at the time, is being held as an acces sory, charged with having given the re volver to Mrs. Leggett. According to neighbors, the Leggetts were continual ly quarreling and especially when under the influence of liquor would these con trovcrsies assume dangerous propor tions. They frequently threatened the life of each other. Saturday night a party was being held at the home ami the guests were all under the influence of liquor. Mrs. Earle Leggett, wife of Ihe victim's brother, kissed a man and this started an argument, during which everyone except Mrs. Clifton Leggett left the | house. When her husband- attempted | to re-enter she walked up to him and with deliberate aim pointed the rcvol lifeless to the floor and lay in a pool lifeles sto tho floor and lay in a pool of blood until the police arrived. When the full realization of her doed dawned upon her, Mrs. Ijegget.t quickly ran upstairs, changed her clothes nn'J left by the rear door. After hiding behind a tree in a nearby lot she re turned to her home. At the autopsy yesterday afternoon it was found lhait; the bullet entered tho face at the base of the nose and pierced his head, lodg ing under tho skull. It was learned to day that one of Mrs. Leggett'# friends had procured a buggy and was eude-avoring to get hor to her relatives in the mountains in tho southern section of Franklin county, Pa. Mills To Resume Next Week Tho Lalance-Grosjean mills will re sume operations next Monday, accord ing to Manager John Grey, after boing closed about a month to undergo re pairs.
