CORKS. jlaw They r Mad and t What I'm the ' Kefn.s Is Put. "It's funny what prejudice will do," said Mr. C. M. Fay. the oork merchant. "We are compelled to import every year several thousand dollars' worth of band-cut corks. These coma chiefly from Germany. They are not so good as the machlno-cut corks of our own couutry. an they ary in sv.e and are but approximately round. A machine cut oork will always tit the bottle It is rn:ulo for. Yet ome of our old Gor man brewers, bo'.tlen and drujrgists aro so jin'judieed in favor of the products 'of fatherland that they will buy hand- may huve sonic-thing to do with it, for itlsapecular fait, ui.d one showing how cheap labor can get. that thoe 'corks,1 cut one by ouo by hand iu (iw many and brought ovur here, twouty five per cent, tantl' paid at the Cmlotu House, and thuu hold a little cheaper than our niachiuo cut corks. Tim cork business is growing very r.ipidlv. This is a great country for bottled i;otils, and bottles must be corked with some thing. There are twenty-three cork factories in the country, but the one in Pittsburgh, of which we are the branch, works up a little more than one-half of all the bark imported every year. Cork, you know, is the bark, not the wood, of the cork oak. All our bark comes frqru Spain and Portugal. There they keep cork woods. It doesn't kill the tree to take its bark away, and it can be skinned every six or e'ght rears. About ll.OOO.WW worth of the" raw bark is brought to this country every year. There is no taritf on it, but a tariff of twenty-five pur cent on the manufac tured product. The importations of manufactured corks run about $130.0(10 a year. The cork has to be steamed up before it is cut. Corks aro made in thousands of sizes aud grades, from the size of a pin-head up to four motors in diameter. We keep GOO sixes and grades in stock. There's a little cork that sells at six cents a gross, and yet every cork has to bo handled three times in the manufacture onee in cut ting, once in tapering, and the last time in assorting oue grade from the others. " None of the bark that comes over in tho ships goes to waste. Wo used to burn the refuse, but we know better now. Up between tho joists, right, under the roof of this building, we have packed fifteen inches of granulated cork. Last .summer this uper floor was as cool as any floor iu the building. Tho heat can't get through that cork protector. Tho palace car builder use the same stuff to pack under the floors of their cars to deaden the sound and under the roofs to keep the heat out. I sold fifty car loads of granulated bark to a certain (rentlenian to pack under the roofs of his refrigerator cars as a non-conductor of heat. He has' saved thousands of dollars iu ice by tho use of that substance, and has hoped that none of his competitors would catch oa to the scheme. But he hoped in vain. The finest of the refuse is used by picture frame makers in decorations. They sprinkle it on their bronzed or japanned frames. See that picture? Well, this old castle along the Khine, the rocks, hills, trees, vineyard, flowers and birds an exquisite landscape, is it not? are all made from cork, pressed like papier in an lii It is & (inrnimi novi'ltv. ami neat one. Fruit and egg eases, ice houses and ico machines, are often packed with the granulated cork, which costs only two ceuts a pound." "We beat the old world at cutting corks, but it is rtithcr strange that America should-import tons of straw. Yet we do every year buy immense quantities of straw iu Germany in the form of bottle-covers. These covers cost eight dollars a thousand, and they are hand-made. They can not be made for ono-fourth tho sum in this country until somebody gets up a machine to do it with. We import something like 100,000 of these covers every month. All of these little tiufoil caps " for wine and soda bottles come from Paris. A New York firm has tried to compete but they can't do it. We have 3H0.O00 at the depot, just arrived from Paris to-day. They are shipped iu hermetic ally sealed cases. But this country leads in wooden ware. Perhaps you don't know it, but the best wooden ware maker in the United States, old man Bauerle, carried on business iu Chicago for twenty-live years. Ho is now over in Michigan, iu the timber country, making faucets, bungs, bung starters, wooden shovels, cork drivers and vine gar measures and funnels, each out of one piece of wood without joint or roam. As for bungs, Cincinnati might properly be called tho bnngtown of America, as there are made all the bungs used in this country. One fac tory there ships 200 barrels of bungs every day." Chicago Herald. The French Cholera Patients. As one who saw cholera patients for the first time (in Paris), what struck me with most force was the great fear which seemed to lay hold of many of these patients, so unlike anything met with in the ordiuary zyraoties such as small-pox, typhus, diphtheria, and th orid under many ad- circumstances it is our first efiortl at type setting, without a case and a second-hand outfit and not half enough of that, we are our own typo, editor, and -Devil," principally, the latter. When this edition goes to the world and all hands have a whark, at me I will be all "Chawed" and "Mangled" but that does not make any difference.

A Fedrtlar's Inhumanity The Mill of the jd r.rfnd Slow. , There is a nh-pcddlor in tho o.ty who drives a raw-bonod, half-dead horse beforo a rickety old wagon, and he beats and abuses tho equino ia a manner to call forth the indignation of every pedestrian. A dozen times 0 day somo onn threatens to punch thf peddler's hend for h's cruelty, and a dozen times tho polico have hauled him up. However, nobody felt thor oughly satislied until yesterday. The man was selling fish on Bcaub en street, and In jumping off his wagon he made a si p and fell In such a way that ono leg was caught fast, while his head hung at the horso's heels. Tho mills of the gods grind slow. So do tho m lis of au old horse. This an mil this sleepy, humble, patient and enduring old rawbohes had been winking his le t eye and biding his time, and now it had come. The man had scarcely yelled "murJor!" before tho old horse socked him one. Ho was barefooted, but he had lots of muscle in his h nd legs. After tho first kick he seemed to thoroughly enjoy It, and be put 'em in hot and heavy. He wanted to get both feet on tho ped dler's head aud staud there and medi tate, but th s could not bo accom plished. In lieu of it he took a run of two blocks and put extra muscle into somo of tho kicks. When the peddler was finally rescued tho most of his hair had been worn oil on the ground, the most of his head had been kicked off by the horse, and his general appenrance would hare been a ticket of admission to any bos p tal iu the country. They laid him on the grass aud threw water on him, and when he could sit up a little aud re member what had occurred he rolled his eyes around on the ground and said: "Dot's vhy I always pound him so much und sohardt.
