February 7th, the Senate passed two Bills appropriating $21,000,000 for the manufacture of steel for heavy ordnance and the construction of fortifications $1,000,000 of the appropriation is to let a applied in erecting an Amy gun factory at West Troy x. Y., for the purpose of manufacturing guns adapted to modern warfare up to and including the largest approved sizes and for the manufacture of gun carriages $5,-000,000 is for the construction of fortifications and coast defences.

Any person who receives a newspaper and makes use of it whether he has ordered it or not will be held in Law to be a subscriber. If subscribers move to other places without forming the publishers and the paper is sent to the former direction they Are held responsible notice should always be Given of removal. If subscribers refuse or neglect to take papers from the office or place to which they Are sent they Are held responsible until they Settle Bills and give notice to discontinue. We noticed in the Mineral Pointerf that parties were claiming the Coal underlying the land of or. Brothers of Mineral Point. It appears that or. Brothers had purchased his farm some years ago not knowing that the former owner had sold the Coal several years before. A controversy has Arisen Over the matter As to who is the rightful owner and May end in Legal proceedings. This Only reminds us of How careless most people Are about titles to property and How much trouble they bring upon themselves that could easily be avoided. The searching of titles requires the services of some one thoroughly acquainted with the records and who Lias had experience of that kind. We have a Good abstract or of titles in this county. Or. John a. Himes makes a business of that alone and has Complete abstracts of the records. You had better pay a moderate fee to or. Himes to have a title examined or demand an abstract of the party Selling before closing a contract if you wish to keep on the Safe Side. Never Purchase at judicial or private Sale until an abstract or has examined the title. To to John a. Himes opposite the court House. We can safely recommend him. Michigan will submit a prohibition amendment to the Constitution at her next election and the prohibition question will be the leading feature of the Campaign. A plot Lias been discovered whereby the Chicago anarchists were to be blown up by their comrades rather than die on the scaffold and probably to also blow up the executioner. Detective i Mulligan the Brave officer who was so brutally assaulted by the bandits at Ravenna is dead. His Skull was crushed with a coupling pin while the prisoner he had in charge was handcuffed to him which gave him but Little Chance to defend himself but he fought bravely while he had strength to stand up. He was a Good officer and respected by All who knew him. Lie leaves a wife and five children to depend upon the cold charities of the world. Citizens of Cleveland however have opened subscription lists for contributions to provide for the comforts of the bereaved family. We predict a Necktie party at Short notice for those hyenas in human form if caught. It will be their just deserts. The chinese indemnity Bill passed the House february 8th, paying $147,000, the whole damages claimed As indemnity for the outrages upon the chinese in Washington territory. The House has provided for payment direct upon proof. _ the election of Hon. David Turpie As United states senator from Indiana was the Correct thing to do. Or. Turpie was in the Senate for a Short time about Twenty years ago and has held Many positions of Trust and Honor during his life. He is a Man of wide experience combined with ability and will do credit to Indiana in the Senate. A Plain dealer. The Harrison National Bank of Cadiz has constructed a Fine new building that is said to be one of the finest of its kind in Eastern Ohio and will compare favourably with any Bank in the state. In speaking of this Bank the Cadiz Republican says a a it May be added that the Bank has completed this building while paying its usual six per cent Semi annual dividends without deducting a Dollar from its splendid surplus fund and without carrying any part of the expense into its account current. All of which May be properly credited to the Good business tact and excellent judgment of its present Board of Cadiz is beginning to look up now and if she gets the new Railroad will swell out to the proportions of a full fledged Little City. Glad to see her Prosper for we have a kind regard for her people. Hon. J. Ii. Fimple has introduced a Bill in the legislature requiring county commissioners to advertise the letting of Blank books Legal Blanks stationery and other office supplies of printed matter for four weeks and require that the contract be let to the lowest responsible bidder Quality considered All material of this kind for one year at each letting. A Law of this kind would save Carroll county a considerable amount of Money besides giving great Relief to officials from whining begging and As is the Case in this count bulldozing party friends. The old method has caused a Deal of trouble in this county and has been an expensive and corrupt system. It is High time that something was done in this matter. This Bill would bring the beggar Bulldozer and whiner Down to the realization that Industry and Economy would be justly rewarded while the Loafer and idler would be driven to earn his a a Salt or retire from the Field in this line of business. Let a or chronicle. How does the above strike Tuscarawas county publishers. It looks a Little As though it was in the interest of the City publishing houses. We feel that we can stand it for All we get out of it. We will do it As Low As any of them so a a let her the advocate last week in speaking of the Railroad meeting at Eagle Hall said that a suspicions were aroused in the minds of some who were present that or. Patrick might be acting in the capacity of an attorney in making that we desire to say that if any such impressions were made on the mind of anyone they Are entirely unwarranted. The officials of the Road had nothing to do with procuring or. Patrick a services As speaker that we Are wholly responsible for that and that the officers had not met or. Patrick until after he entered the Hall that night. Or. Patrick came very reluctantly As he was very Busy when called upon. But we Are glad to know that he has the Wellfare of our town at heart and that he told the people Many facts that cannot be disputed. Quite an interesting correspondence is going on Between the British government and the department at Washington relative to the fishery dispute. The great Bone of Contention is in reference to the construction put upon a clause in tie treaty of 1818. Each government contending it is right. The United states proposes to Deal with great Britain alone and not with Canada. It is Likely the question will he submitted to a commission As the British government says she is desirous of a just settlement of the fishery question. Great Britain apologizes for the lowering of the american Flag. Miss Van Zundt the Cranky Young woman who is violently enamoured of spies the anarchist murderer now in the Chicago jail awaiting execution secured e marriage License and on last saturday procured an ignorant Justice of the peace to marry her by proxy to the anarchist. Spies commissioned his brother to act for him As his substitute and the ceremony was performed with the alleged Bride and Groom several Miles apart. Of course the so called marriage is a great farce and will not hold in Law. Carlisle will doubtless have a competitor for the speaker ship in the person of Hon. Patrick a. Collins of Boston. Carlisles refusal to recognize any representative of the Southern tobacco interests has produced a breach that endangers his chances. That faction with the Aid of the Randall Tariff men who constitute a majority of the democratic caucus will be Able to Down him. Or. Carlisle is being severely criticised by his democratic Brethren. A crowd of Drunken and Devilish men placed a tie and a Large Stone on the pan handle track at a cattle guard near Coshocton last thursday night which came near wrecking the limited express no. 2, eastbound. The engine was thrown from the track but no other damage was done. It is said the men Are known and will be arrested. Done to it beat All what whisky is accomplishing in this paragraph. The chaps committing that deed ought to be Given a Necktie . The jacksonian of Wooster says that Post office inspector Holmes visited that place on thursday last to investigate Wooster a claims to a free postal delivery. After making a thorough examination of the office and the City he gave As his opinion that Wooster filled the requirements of the Law and would Likely get free delivery. Ii on. George 11. Pendleton has been talked of As probable successor to Manning. But the president has stated that minister Pendleton had not been considered at All in connection with any appointment different from which he now holds and that he will return to Berlin in ten Days. An account of the great Railroad disaster is on the inside of the paper. The latest account gives a list of 34 killed 30 wounded 2 missing and 12 that have gone Home. This Accident is similar in result to the Ashtabula disaster. A Man by the name of Brown was found dead on the Goshen Road yesterday wednesday morning. Coroner Beck was notified and an inquest was to be held in the afternoon but we have not Learned the particulars of his death. T e Way ohioans swell out. Ohio men Are constantly appealing to governor Foraker for permission to raise militia companies with which to fight Canada. Now Here is a Good idea. Let Ohio go to War with Canada and let the rest of the states sit Back and say a a go in Ohio go in Canada a whichever Way it turned out would be highly Chicago yews. We accept the situation. We can take Canada Annex it to Ohio and have a Republic of our own which will grow thrive Prosper and become perpetual. Ohio has just the Genius and gumption to run a big government.

Benjamin Franklin was the son of a tallow Chandler who migrated to new England from the Mother country about the year 1685. He was the youngest son of a family of seventeen children his father having had two wives. Benjamin was born in Boston january 17th, 1706. Ii is father had placed All of his elder Brothers As apprentices to different trades but Benjamin the tithe of his sons was sent to the grammar school at the age of eight years the intention being to dedicate his services to the Church. Lie was a diligent student and Rose very rapidly in his classes but his father could not without inconvenience Bear the expense of his education and at the age of ten years he was taken from school to help his father. He had however an aversion to his fathers Trade and an ardent desire to go to sea. But the father declared against the youths desire and determined to make him a Printer. His extreme love for books and his thirst for knowledge confirmed the Wisdom of his fathers Choice and at the age of twelve years he was apprenticed to his brother James who had set up in the business of printing in Boston. He was to serve As an apprentice until he was Twenty one years of age and he was to be allowed Journeyman a wages during the last year. By his Industry he soon became a Good Workman. He now had Access to better books and some opportunities to gratify his thirst for knowledge. He would procure books in any possible manner and sit up in his chamber at night to read them. At this time he took a Strong inclination for poetry and composed two ballads. In this his father discouraged him and led him to abandon the idea of becoming a poet. But he was intent on writing and began to write prose articles for his brother a paper. His brother did not however recognize his Able services As he should but rather imposed too much upon him. He now became tired of his connection with his brother and longed to be released. Presently lie embraced an Opportunity to leave Boston for new York at the age of seventeen. When he reached new York he immediately sought employment in his business but failing in this and learning that he might find employment in Philadelphia he started for there at once making his noted entry into that City. Here he made his appearance without Money and without friends but with a Noble character Consile learning and a Good Trade. He soon found employment with Teimer a Printer who lodged him in the family of miss read his future wife with whom he soon formed an intimate Friendship. Lie was now a master Workman and Laboured diligently in the interest of his employer spending his Leisure moments in his self improvement. In the Spring of 1724, he visited his friends at Home. Lie was Well dressed had plenty of Money and his mind stored with useful knowledge. Returning to Philadelphia he was persuaded to go to London and started thence in december of the same year lie remained in London for eighteen months working at his Trade. He then returned once More to Philadelphia to find that his Friend miss read had been persuaded by her friends to marry. The Union however proved to be an unhappy one and did not Long continue. Then the Mutual affection Between Franklin and his somewhat neglected Friend was revived and in september 1730, they were United in Matrimony. By a Little assistance from friends he was now Able to Start in business for himself in which he had almost infinite Success. Franklin a subsequent history i and Public services Are familiar t every i Ordinary Reader of the English Lan i Guage and will always be remembered As an example of what May be a j complis hed by Industry integrity and Economy. J. F. C. Agriculture in Alaska. 1 the visitor to Alaska is at once struck i by the Luxuriance of the vegetation j and is Apt to hastily diet Yvo the inference j that farming Woulcie acc Essul. But j there Are two obstacles in the Way. In j the first place the surface of Southeastern Alaska is exceedingly mountainous. At Bartlett a Bay near the Entrance of Glacier Bay there is quite an extent of comparatively level land but no experiments have yet been made to ascertain its capabilities. But even were the land All that could he desired the climate would be against the Success of any such Experiment. The average number of Rainy Days is 245, and the average rainfall is eighty five inches. The rainfall is not confined to any one portion of the years and even in july or August ten consecutive Days of fair weather is exceptional. It will be readily seen that fruit or crops have no Chance to Ripen. Near Juneau Hay has been raised this year but even in the latter part of july it was not ready to Cut. Such vegetables As turnips and potatoes have been raised with fair Success at Sitka and fort Wrangel but these places Are still dependent on the More Southern countries for supplies. Sal Mon berries blueberries strawberries whorl berries and Many others grow luxuriantly in Alaska and some have been exported to san Francisco. The Interior of Alaska is a Large Plain covered with wild grasses four and five feet High. The country is Well adapted for grazing if the herds can b a a <11 protected from the severe win. The Southern coast several Small herds of cattle have grazed Many years and Are found to do very Well but experiments with sheep show that they cannot endure the Long Winters. Young tramp to old tramp on finishing begged where we will get anything for supper old tramp a see Here Young Feller you Hainet got the proper spirit for this per Fesh. If you re going to begin thinking about supper soon As you be got through dinner you a better go Back to work you the farm residence of r. T. I Lake in Brown township this county near Wayne Burgh was destroyed by fire monday morning. The fire originated from Chimney Sparks. Loss $3,000�? insured for $1,200.�?carroll shot is made. The entire process explained by a reliable expert. Accidental discovery of the Tower Princess of making is Iota dropping to at has a temperature of fifteen Hundred degrees. In. Mail and express How Many new yorkers have found time to penetrate the mysteries of a shot Tower not More than one in 500 of the City a population Ever visits the towers. The trip is not without its Reward. It is astonishing How much the average Man May learn about very common place things. Or. C. C. Trave is superintendent of one of new Yorkus shot towers. Entering the factory the first thing seen is an enormous Fly wheel nearly As Large As that of the great Corliss engine which is a part of the sifting and sorting machinery. Passing through and leaving behind the rumble of the heavy engine a Patter like that of Hail is heard. Looking Down one sees a tank of water twelve feet deep. Into this the shot continually rain. A this is no. 6 shot a said or. Tracy. A it Falls from the first Landing a distance of 140 feet. About three fourths of it is found to be of the desired size no. 6, As it comes from the water. The remainder is of different sizes and a certain Small fraction is imperfect and must be melted again. Now if you Are ready for a hard climb we will go up stairs. 1 have been Here Twenty one years. These stairs did not formerly bother me at All but now they catch my Knees a at the first Landing stood a Man with leather gloves leather apron and sponge at nose before a vast cauldron filled with molten Lead. He was using a Large ladle with which he replenished a cast Iron pot standing in a sort of Box like a Cistern top. Down through the Bottom of this pot perforated like a colander the globules of Lead fell. A Quot you know a said or. Tracy a a that the discovery of this process came about All by Accident. Some roofers were repairing a Church spire. One of the workmen happened to notice that the solder which fell from his lofty Perch was found in tiny globes upon the ground beneath the Steeple. From this fact he argued that the roundness of shape must be caused by the effect of the Long passage through the air and the principle of the shot Tower was evolved. Till that time All shot was moulded. Lead melts at about 590 degrees fahrenheit. This Lead which the Man is handling has a temperature of something like 1,500 degrees. You May imagine it is pretty hot. This Little Kettle holds 7.000 pounds of Lead which All goes Down in about two hours. We get pig Lead from Omaha and Newark. Generally we carry 375 tons of shot in or. Tracy climbed to the second Landing one Hundred and eighty five feet above the ground. There the writer was introduced to a Furnace and cauldron for larger sized shot. The View from the windows was Superb. Twenty feet above is the roof of the Tower. Any one who had mounted to the second Landing is quite ready to rest a few moments while the process of shot making is explained. A Lead shot a said or. Tracy a though sometimes Mado of Lead alone is almost always formed of an Alloy of arsenic and Lead. The arsenic is introduced in the form of Arsenious acid or the sulph Uret. The object of the addition of the arsenic is to Render the hard Brittle qualities of the Lead softer and More ductile. And of the proper consistence to take the globular form. Owing to the rapid decomposition of the arsenic it is treated by itself in the Bottom of the melting Kettle. A cover is placed Over the substance and its Stem which rises up through the Kettle is fastened Down. The Lead is then added above the cover and when melted the cover is lifted out of the liquid mass which instantly becomes permeated with the arsenic beneath. The Alloy thus produced contains forty five pounds of arsenic to the ton of Lead and is known As this again is added in the proportion of one per cent., to the pure Load and thus the shot Alloy containing a very Small percentage of arsenic is produced. The a temper pots hold about a ton of Metal each. Alter the shot have reached the Bottom of the Well they Are at once lifted out by an elevator and thrown upon an inclined drying table Over which they slide falling finally into a wire Gauze rotating Cylinder. Then they Are rolled and ground together and in this Way the minute burrs upon them Are removed. From the Cylinder another elevator lifts the shot upon a screening table. This consists of a series of planes arranged at gradually decreasing Heights. Between each two there is an interval. The shot being started at the head of the highest plane will if perfect Roll from one plane to another jumping Over the intermediate spaces. If imperfect however it tumbles and goes Back to the melting Kettle. The Good shot after passing this ordeal reach the separators. It should be explained that there Are usually several tables each being devoted to a different size of shot. The Little Leaden globes Are next elevated to the top Cylinder of a series arranged on an incline. They Are conical in form and covered with perforated Sheet brass. Each Cylinder serves As a Sieve for a particular size of shot retaining that and allowing All smaller sizes to escape. The shifting goes on until each Cylinder has picked out the particular class of shot to which it is adapted. The sizes of shot Are Standard. The smallest is known As a dust a and then comes no. 12,�?T which is .05 Inch in diameter 2.336shot going to the ounce. The sizes then increase by one hundredths of an Inch up to Twenty three hundredths of which there Are Twenty four shot to the ounce. The shot being assorted polishing alone remains to be done. This is accomplished by placing the shot together with plumbago m a Box which is rapidly rotated. The Glossy Black smoothness is thus imparted. The shot Are then weighed bagged and ready for a Are not the fumes of the Lead and arsenic very injurious to the workmen i Quot or. Tracy was asked. A Well there is no denying that some men Are affected by the fumes engendered in the process of manufacture. Some systems can not stand it. One of our employees showed signs of poisoning. He grew feeble and gave up his place. But after a vacation of seven months he returned to us again and remained nine years in perfect health. It is difficult to Lay Down a general Rule. Our Inen Are All healthy. Painters corrodes and smelters Are much More exposed to noxious fumes than Are those engaged in making shut.�?T when lord Clive was at Wiist. Fortnightly review lord Clive was on one occasion playing whist when he received a letter from major Ford commanding a Field Force conveying important intelligence. Lord Clive did not interrupt his game but merely scribbled in Pencil a dear Ford fight them at once. 1 will Send you the order in Council wonderful cures. W. I.
