It was at that time considered by practical ' publishers as a model country printing house, and tho almost total loss of the material and stock, as well as part of the machinery, was felt keenly by the proprietor. The encouragement receiv ed from friends and patrons imbued us with a hope of being able to overcome the misfortune, and in a short while the TRIBUNE reappeared. From that time until the present date there has been a steady outlay of money. Every depart ment of the business has been added to and altered to make it perfect in its lino. The gasoline engine which was wrecked was replaced with a boiler and engine which is pronounced by me chanics to bo the neatest, best and most perfect in its line. The excellent newspaper press in use a year ago had to give way to a larger and faster one. The job press was thoroughly re built and made equal to new, and a high-grade folding machine was added to the press room. In the composing and stock rooms the change has been as great, if not more so. The latest and most improved material has been pur chased, and with the best and most ser viceable faces of type, work is turned out quicker and better than before. In size and assortment, the stock of paper, cards, etc., carried is four times larger than the ordinary newspaper and job printing houses have on hand, and the largest kind of orders are filled from our • • helves Without delay. In addition, the J printing office has steam heat and eloc- j trie light in every part, and everything arranged with a view to further con venience and comfort. These improvements, as stated before, have required a large outlay of money. The year of 1895 has not been one of ; great'prosperity in any line of business, and newspapers especially have felt tin effects of depression with more or less severity. The TRIBUNE, we arc pleased to say. has retained all Its old friends and patrons and added many new ones, and by the prompt attention to business and the quality of service rendered, it has been favored with no small share of the work of this vicinity. For this up- ! preciation of our efforts we are indeed grateful, and more so because of the ■ fact that payment is promptly rendered when Dills are presented, with some few exceptions. The men who honor their obligations are the best friends to any business, and it is to these that thanks arc duo for our success. The exceptional cases are in the sub scription department, principally. Tin bills for the paper are smaller in amounts than those for printing and ad vertising, yet for some reason unknown it is more difficult to collect a bill for subscription than one of any other kind. This paper does not insist upon a cash in advance payment, but we expect to be paid some time within a year from the date on the subscriber's paper, if not, then as soon as a year's subscrip tion is duo. On account of the slack work at the mines we have not dunned our delinquents according to our oppor tunities, but have dealt with them gen erously. The subscribers on our list who owe for a year or more are there bccauso we presume they are honest and believe they will pay us. We d> not take them to bo of the class that make a practice of "beating" news papers. That kind of people has wreck ed many a good newspaper, but we don't think they will do so with this one. Therefore, to such subscribers as may owe for a year or more, wi wisli to state plainly that wo expect payment. The money invested in this business since a year ago today was not placed there for the accommodation of careless payers, but to equip a plant for publishing a newspaper and doing printing. We have briefly outlined the reason why we have been under heavy expense for the past year, and while that may or may not interest the delinquents, we men tion it so they will understand fully that the money due us is needed. The TRI BUNE does not ask for nor accept chari ty, alms or anything elso outside of what is justly owed, and i 11*111 aking this state- ' moot to our debtors at this time we | want all who find themselves in the class referred to, to govern themselves as j promptly as possible. The end of the , year is drawing nigh, and we want them ! to prove their honesty by paying their debts or take their place on the "dead beat" list. PLEASURE CALENDAR.

An A IMM lot**ly Unique Feature-Thin llcll and a Chime of Tvriity-Six Other* Will He Connected with the Organ and Used to Relnforco the Choir. COPYRIGHT. 1895. Liberty bell is at last to have a rival. Libert,' bell is at last to have a rival. Not, indeed, in fame, nor in the hearts of the people. In those respects it will ever stand unrivaled. But in size, at least, a rival—or rather, a superior—is now being made ready for the massive belfry in the suburbs of Cincinnati where it is soon to swing, and ring out the loudest peal that has ever vibrated upon the free air of America. Doubt less by the time these words appear in print the molten metal will have flowed hissing down the channels iuto the curi ously constructed mold, and the biggest bell ever cast on this side of the Atlantic will be cooling in the great pit con structed to receive it. For the new bell is to weigh nearly 15 tons; and the great bell in the cathedral at Montreal, hitherto the largest on the American POLISniNQ THE U7TEBIOB. continent, weighs rather less Than 13 tons. It will take rank, therefore, very creditably, among the largest bells of the world—the largest in England, the Westminster bell, weighing about the same, while one in Vienna, the largest in actual use in Europe, weighs about 20 tons. It IR true that the monster of Moscow, which lies broken and pros trate, weighed more than 200 tons; but it was simply a huge mistake, which having failed as a bell is now used as a chapel. It is stated, too, that there is n monstrosity somewhere in China t.hat weighs about Go tons; but its shape is abominable, and its tone excruciating to any but a Celestial ear. But these figures of weight convey but o very vague idea of size. The great Chinese cat-call is said to be 14 fret in height, but it is shaped like a barrel. The Cincinnati bell, which is cast in the true proportions for beauty and melody— being modeled after a bell in Erfurt, Prussia, which is accounted the sweetest in the world—is seven feet in height and nine in diameter at the Lase. That is to say, if it rested, mouth THE MO downward, on the ground, the tallest man could stand upright under it; and i if it were sot on edge, and a schoolboy were to cling with his hands to the upper rim, his foot would dangle about where the clapper will hang when the boll is finally in position. Thisclnppei will weigh no less than 040 pounds. Imagine the effect when it comes in collision with 15 tons of resonant bell , metal! Nowhere else in the world is such a mass actually swung. The di- | ameter of the wheel is 15 feet, und two | ropes will he attached. It isst ipulnted, j indeed, that the hell shall be so poised that one man can ring it; hut unless the services of Sandow eotjld he secured as sexton the task would he altogether too arduous—hence the double rope. Hells have been east which required the combined effort of more than 20 men to swing them; but. bell hanging, as well as hell founding, lias made no small progress, and such cumbersome arrangements belong to the days of creaking ox carts and wooden plows. The ornnmentation of the Cincinnati hell is believed to he more elaborate thai that of any other in existence. Civi • and ecclesiastical decorations will both ha l .e place, making it ut once an emblem of patriotic feeling, and a cei* ; sccrated instrument of worship. En cirelii g the body of the bell, just abovi the sounding bow, is the Latin text of the Lord's Prayer in true Gothic char acters about seven inches high. Above tills, on the civic half, the American I eagle hovers over the great seal of the I United States—an impression of which ! was sent directly from the white house. Beneath this is the seal of the state of Ohio, pierced by the staff that supports the stars and stripes, which fall in ! graceful folds on either side; and be neath this is the seal of the city of Cin cinnati. Medallions of the deceased donor and family complete the design. On the ecclesiastical half of the bell, under the surmounting tiara, is a me dallion of Pope Leo XIII., with his seal beneath it. Just below is the medallion of Rt. Rev. W ill in 111 Henry Elder, arch bishop of Cincinnati, through which arc crossed the staffs of the papal banners. Right and left of this medallion are two others—of Archbishop Purcell, and of Bishop Fenwick, the first bishop of Cin elnnnti. Beneath the central medal lion is one of Vicar General Albrink. Around the crown, or upper part, in Gothic relief, are two verses of mediae val Latin hexameters relating to bells, which read as follows: I,undo Deura verum, plebum voco, congregi clerum; Funcra prango, fulgura frango, Sabbata pango. Thin may be approximately, though not completely, rendered by tha qualm old English lines: To callo ye fold© utt© meeting tyme. We chyine; When Joyo and myrth are on ye vrynge, We rynga; When we Inmente a pasayng eoule, We toil©." It will be noticed that great syci mot rv litis boon at tained by thin arrange merit. The eagle is opposite the tiarn. and the American flag to the papal on e'gn; the seal of the United States cor responds lo that of Home; and t lie an rue artistic balance is maintained in all the parts. The general form of the church bell was perfected by medieval founders, niul 110 radical change from this has ever been made with good results. It has been argued by some that bells of hemispherical shape, without the usual flare at the bottom, would give a purer tone, but this theory is not in accord with the facts. Tha lines of tha new hell differ quite considerably from those which are usual. The exact proportions were-determined by Mr. F. P. Lot/, su perintendent of the Buckeye foundry, where the hell iscnst, according to a rule of his own devising—but this rule is carefully regarded as n trade secret, too valuable for publication. The metal used is the usual alloy of copper and tin in the ratio of 78 to 22. No other metals or proportions give so satisfac tory a result. The idea that an admix ture of silver will sweeten the tone is a popular delusion. To produce such a casting requires, when all is ready, upwards of eighty hours, and the slightest mismanage ment would result in failure. JC\cn wit* cooling must he carefully regulated. 'I here is perhaps hut one other foundry in the United States—that at Troy, N. V., where the Columbian liberty bell was east-—in which such a work could be successfully carried through. The pastor of the church of the bells is I'ev. A. M. Quart-man. A parishioner, Joseph O. Buddeke, bequeathed SIO,OOO to defray the cost of this great work; but nt lenstss,ooo more will be expend ed before Cinoinn&ti'B noble bell Hounds from its loft 4' tower. CONGRESS 111 SESSION Reed Elected Speaker by a Majority of 102. The IluUs of the Flfiy-flrsl Congress Adopted in the Hons* Officers Chosen—Organisation of the Sen ate—Wailing for the President's Message, Due at Neon To-day. Washington, Dee. 3. —The machinery for the organization of the house of representatives worked yesterday in a very satisfactory manner and without the slightest jar. Mr. Reed of Maine, in pursuance of the unanimous decis ion of the republican caucus, was elected to the speakership by a vote of 234. as against 95 for Mr. Crisp of Georgia, the democratic candidate: six for Mr. Bell of Colorado, the populist candidate, and one for Mr. Culberson of Texas, democrat. Mr. Reed's speech in taking the chair was hrief and in cisive. lie would not speak for the past, he said; the past could speak for itself. Nor should he speak of the future, as they were not now putting off the harness, but putting it on. But he suggested that those who had acted with wisdom in the past might be fairly expected to act with wisdom in the future. Officers and Rules of the House. After the onth of office had been ad ministered to the speaker and all the members the next step in the republi can programme—the election of offi cers— was taken, and Messrs. McDow ell of Pennsylvania, Russell of Mis souri, Glenn of New York, McElroy of Ohio, and Couden of Michigan were chosen ns clerk, eergeant-at-arms, doorkeeper, postmaster and chaplain, respectively. The rules of the fifty first congress were adopted for the government of the house in the pres ent congress, after an assurance from Mr. Cannon, rep.. 111., who had offered the resolution, that they would here after be referred to the committee on rules, and that the house would have an opportunity to discuss the report of the committee. That assurance seemed to satisfy Mr. Crisp, dera., Ga., who had raised the question, and the mat ter went through without further con tention. After some frirther prelimi nary proceedings and a drawing for scats in the usual manner, perhaps somewhat in contravention of the anti-lottery law. and in which drawing many of the prizes fell to some of the least known of the members, and many of the blanks to some of the most dis tinguished, the house, at 3:35 p. in., adjourned till noon to day. In the Senate. There was an unuaually large at tendance of senators when the fifty fourth congress convened at noon, the only recorded absentees being Mr. Hill of Naw York, Mr. Lindsay of Kentucky, Mr. VToleott of Colorado and the two senators from Louisiana. Mr. Palmer of Illinois and Mr. Jones of Arkansas were absent during the I first part of the proceedings, but came in time for adjournment. The only in teresting featura ef the proceedings was the swearing in of the new sen ators. Being officially advised that the president's message would net be de livered till noon to-day the senate im mediately thereafter adjourned till that time. Democratic Officers. Three hours were consumed by the house democrats in caucus last evening ■electing the four officials of their parly to which they art entitled bv their mi nority representation.

Browning of Virginia and Thos. < okley of New York were elected special messengers. The caucus fin ished its work by electing J as. F. English of California, page. President at tlio White House.

It being a feast day the rebels took advantage of it and a small group appeared and compelled two boys who were there to wet the frame walls of the foundry with petroleum. This done they applied the toroh and part of the building was burned. The prompt arrival of the troops aud firemen pre vented the loss of the entire building. It was afterwards learned that it was the plan of the insurgents to enter the city, but the precautions taken by the authorities frustrated it. Many young men were ready to Join them had they succeeded in entering the city. Separatist Sentiment In Cuba. New York, Dec. 3.—A prominent Cubsn to-day received a letter dated in Havana November 27, the following paragraph from which shows the en thusiasm and strong spirit of independ ence possessed by every Cuban in the island: "There is not a shadow of doubt but that the sentiment of all the Cubans is essentially separatist. It is clearly evinced by the admiration awakened by the revolutionists in their efforts to push forward our province; it is evinced by the praises sung in all the Cuban homes to Gomez, Roloff, Rabi, Carrillo, Sanchez, Zayas and other chiefs; it is shown by tho rejoic ings with which the news of every Spanish defeat is received, and no less so by the universal approval expressed for the radical, out necessary', war measure of destroying the sugar cane fields, which simply means to destroy the wealth of the country. And it is more than approval; it is demanded by all that the measure be executed to the fullest extent so that the revolution may triumph. I have been surprised to find that the planters themselves whose estates are threatened by the measure join in the general demand, and declare that they arc perfectly willing to undergo the sacrifice in or der tnat freedom and independence bo achieved."
