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,

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. I wiT

A Fedrtlar's Inhumanity The Mill of the

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

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

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

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

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

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
