Transparent Mirror Glass.
A transparent mirror glass recently
introduced in (Tormany, reflects light
on one side, from which it is
practically opaque, while from the
other side it is transparent. It is pro¬
posed to use this type of glass for
glazing windows in city residences, for,
while it will not cut off light or vision
from the interior, it will prevent out¬
siders from seeing into the room.

A JOINT DEBATE
BETWEEN HARVEY AND HOUR
ON TIIE FINANCIAL QUESTION.
The Novel Contest to I^ast Eight Days,
Sundays Excepted.
The discussion of the silver question
between W. H. Harvey, author of
Coin’s Financial School, and Hon,
Rowsell G. Horr, of New York, which
is to continue eight days, was begun
at Chicago Tuesday afternoon at 2
o’clock at the Illinois Club. The dis¬
putants will tako the affirmitive and
negative at pleasure, and neither will
talk longer than ton minutes at any
one time, the discussion thns being a
running fight nt close range. The
judges are ex-Solicitor General of the
United States Charles H. Aldrich and
Hon. Henry Miller.
The privilege of being present ni
this momentous contest was accorded
to few. There were seats for about 200
persons in the assembly room of the
club honse, but only a little over half
that number were present.
Congressman J. C. Sibley, of Penn¬
sylvania, a leader of the free silver
foroes in the oast, oocupled a promi¬
nent seat. He will remain daring tho
debate, unless business engagement#
prevent. A prominent advocate of
the gold standard was A. B. Hum¬
League phrey, secretary of the National
of Republican Clubs. Others
present were: W. W. Meagher, of the
oimetallio league; Lyman J. Gage,
referee for Mr. Horr; Fred W. Peck
and A. II. Revel), of Chicago; L. G.
Powers, of St. Paul; Dr. S. A. Robin¬
son, of New York, aud Charles A. Ser¬
gei, of Chicago. The last throe acted
as advisers to Mr. Horr, and sat by
hie side, tuking oopious notes while
Mr. Harvey spoke.
Mr. Harvey consulted little with
anybody. Ho brought with him a
a great pilo of authorities for the pur¬
pose of substantiating statements made
in his book, to which ho frequently
referred,
A man with a watoh sat noar the
speakers, and whenever one had spoken
eight minntt* he would tap loudly on
a call bell. This notified tho speaker
that he had two minutes more to con¬
clude his statement. By theso stages
of ten minutes each the speakers will
proceed for eight days, using only the
afternoons and resting Bundays.
Rules of the Debate.
Dr. Homer Thomas, president of
the Illinois Club, called the assemblage
to order, briefly setting forth tho ob¬
jects of tho debath. Ho introduced
Hon. II. G. Miller nod ox-Judgo Wil¬
liam A. Vincent, both of Chicago,
who, he.said, would bo judges, and at
the conclusion of tho controversy do
cido which had the best of the novel
debate.
Mr. Miller then read tho rules which
are to govern. It was, ho said, the
intention of tho speakers to deliver
altogether 110,000 words. Of these,
5,000 are to be reserved for use at tho
end of the discussion. This will give
each a chance to recapitulate his argu¬
ment in 2,500 words. Three hundred
words additional will bo allowed each
contestant m a rejoinder to his adver¬
sary’s closing argument. Mr. Miller
stated that, the whole discussion was
copyrighted and that, while it would
bn given the widest publicity through
the press, it was the intontion of the
principal to proservo tho debate as
privato property aud issue it in book
form.
The debate was started by Mr. Horr,
who referred to the author of “Coin’s
Financial School” with some severity.
He said he never read a book making
so many misstatements.
Mr. Ilsrvcy, in his opening state¬
ment, contented himself with a pre¬
sentation of his plan of campaign aud
told what ho would prove.
Mr. Horr wanted to know' why the
names of prominent oitizons had been
used in Mr. Harvey’s book, and words
put into their mouths that they had
never used, to which Mr. Harvey re¬
plied his book was simply an allegory
and the fact that- a tittle boy was put
in as teacher ought to be enough to
prove to any sensible person that this
was so.
Then the speakers plunged nt once
into tho thick of tho fight. The argu¬
ment nt all times was very spirited,
and both Speakers had hard work to
preserve their tempers.

Steamers Crash Together While Pas¬
sengers Were Sleeping.
A terrible accident resulting in the
loss of 148 lives occurred near the
mouth of the gulf of Spezzia, in
Haly, Sunday. At half past one
o’clock in the morning the steamer
Ortigia and Maria P ran into each
other, and the latter vessel was so
badly damaged that she sank in a very
short time. The Maria P had on
board, in addition to her crew, 178 pas
sengers bound from Naples for the River
Plate, by far the largest part of whom
were emigrants. The night was pitch
dark when the collision occurred, and
tho scene on board the sinking steamer
almost defies description. Most of the
passengers wore asleep in their bunks
at the time, and wore awakened by the
crashing of tho steamer’s plates, deck
beams and deck planks. They were
panic stricken and rushed pell mell on
deck, where they ran higher and thith
er, calling upon the saints to save them
From the reports of the disaster re
coived it is impossible to determine
whether any attempt was made by the
Maria P to clear away and launch her
small boats to attempt to rescue tho
passengers, but judging from the ac
count given by the excited survivors,
it is surmised that the steamer wont
down too quickly to allow of this be
ing done, thongh one boat got away,
I ho blackness of the night added to
the terror of those on board and it is
understood that some of the passen
gers, crazed with fear, jumped over

any connected story from them, but
from the statements of some of the
crow it appears that the disaster was
tho fault of the Ortigia. Tho crew of
tho Maria P numbered seventeen. Of
this number fourteen were saved in
the boat that got clear of the ship. ,mV
This boat also saved the thirty
sengers who escaped

The collision occurred off Isola del
Tino. The Ortigia left Genoa at 9
o’clock Saturday night. Tho Maria
P was bound for Genoa,where the em
igrants cm board her were to have boon
transhipped to the steamer Sud Amer
iea, which was to convey them to tho
liiver Plate.
It is reported that the lookout man
on tho Ortigia saw nothing of the
other stoamer until it was too late to
avert a collision. The officers of tho
Ortigia say that no boats were lowered
by the Maria P, and that their vessel
saved all tho survivors. The Ortigia
remained in tho vicinity of tho acoi
dout for several hours, hoping that
she might be able to rescue others,
Tho bowt of the Ortigia have in them
a rent four yards long just above the
water line.
Admiral Morin, minister of marine,
announced the disaster to tho cham¬
ber of deputies and the news created
a deep impression. Many of the dep¬
uties expressed sympathy with the
families of the victims. Admiral Mo¬
rin, minister, also ordered an investi¬
gation to be made of tho affair to place
tho responsibility.
Capt Ferrerra was tho master of the
Maria P. Later information is to the
effect that all her passengers were em¬
igrants.

A deal of great magnitude was com¬

Dickinson, representing the Mergen

Colonel Frank J. Heeker in one
check, the sum of $415,000, which
gave to the Mergenthaler peoplo all
rights, title and inberest of every name

chine of the Rogers Typograph Com¬
pany. This deal ends a long and
hard-fought legal battle, which lasted
for many years. This deal will have
no effect on the users of t he Rogers
machines. All the indebtedness of the
Rogers company will be paid out ol
the money, and the stockholders will
receive the balance, amounting to
about 10 cents on the dollar.

Is it a Trap?
The Southern Railway and Steam
ship Association adjourned its meeting
at Asheville, N. C., Friday after a
session of three days, until August
13th, when the magnates will meet at
the Waldorf, New York. The special
committee appointed to wind up the
discussion on the articles of agreement
made their report, which was much in
the nature of a surpriso to many of
the leading railroad men, inasmuch as
it showed several changes in the
agreement favoring the changes Mr.
St. John, of the Seaboard, has been
trying to establish,
It is generally conceded that the
agreement is far more lax in its tone
than the old one was, and this is what
Mr. St. John hod apparently been ob
stinately fighting for all the while,
Until Friday the old members of the
association have stood him out uud de¬
feated him in all of his suggestions
for the policy he set up as the prioe of
the Seaboard’s coming into the asso
ciation again. Acquiescing in this
loose policy is due to a special corn
rnittee. It is considered all the more
Btrange that such a course should have
been pursued by the committee, since
both Mr. Spencer, of the Southern,
and Mr. Harry Walters, of the Atlan
tic Coast Line, were on tho coinmit
tee, these being the rivals of the Sea
board on each side all tho way from
the south to tho northeast,

a PHOSPHATE TRUST
___
In Which Millions of Property are
Involved,
It is reported from New York that
a big combination of all the phosphate
companies in this country lias been in
progress for several months. It is said
that millions of dollars’ worth of prop
erty are involved in this proposed
trust, and the effect will bo felt by
every farmer in the country. Ameri
can farmers depend principally on the
phosphate found in Florida, South
Carolina and Tennessee,und now these
diggings are to bo taken over by a big
trust and tho price raised. The big
combination lots been engineered by
Dr. Otto A. Moses, of New York, who

A COAL COMBINE.
Organization Formed and Ready to
Advance 1’rices.
The four states coal combine was
formed Saturday at Lookout Mount¬
ain, Chattanooga, by the coal opera¬
tors assembled with this avowed pur¬
pose from the states of Tennessee,
Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky. The
interests represented at the meeting,
directly or by proxy, control more
than seven-eighths of the coal output
of the entire south. The end sought
for at the recent Atlanta meeting was
effected aud the ultimate result will be
the raising of the prioe of coal at the
mines by every operator in the com¬
bine.
WILL SHUTDOWN
Unless the Striking Weavers Return
to Work at Present Wages.
The issue in the fight between the
Philadelphia manufacturers and their
striking ingrain carpet weavers, is
now clearly defined. The men have
refused the proposition of the manu¬
facturers to continue work at the pres¬
ent rate of wages until Decem¬
ber 1st, when the asked for in¬
crease of 7$ per cent would be grant¬
ed, and the manufacturers are equally
determined not to accede to the de¬
mand for an increase at once. Thom¬
as Bromley, Jr., secretary of the man¬
ufacturers’ committee, said that if
the men did not return to work
at present wages the manufacturers
would shut their mills down.
SPALDING GOES DRY.
The Election Was Closely Contested,
The Majority About 75.
The prohibition election in Spalding
county, Ga., was hotly contested
Tuesday. The count was not com¬
pleted up to the time of going to
press, but it is generally conceded that
the county has gone dry by a majority
of from seventy to ninety. Several
fights occurred at Griffin during tho
day, but no one was seriously hurt.
Most powerful is he who has himself
in his own power.
The Growth of Our Country.
Harper’s Weekly in discussing the
material growth of the country be
tween 1873 and 1894, gives these fig
urea: “In 1873 the net deposits in
the national banks of the United States
were 8673,400,000; in 1894 they were
82,019,300,000. In 1873 this country
exported cotton goods to the value of
82,947,528, In 1894 its exports of
cotton in quantity had multiplied
more than fonr-fold, and their value
had increased to $14,340,886. In 1873.
the country produced 264,314,148 gal
Ions of crude petroleum, and in 1894
its production had increased to 2,033,-
331,972 gallons. In 1873 the total
product of cane sugar in this country
was 134,832,493 pounds; in 1894 it
was 610,825,618 pounds. In 1873 our
wool product was 158,000,000 pounds;
in 1894 it was 298,057,384 pounds. In
1873 we manufactured 2,401,202 tons
of pig iron; in 1894 we made 7,124,-
502 pounds.
To Ebonize Wood.
To make woods, such aa cherry, ma¬
hogany, etc., look like ebony, the fol¬
lowing directions are given by the
Boston Journal of Commerce: To im¬
itate black ebony, first wet the woods
with n solution of logwood and cop¬
peras, boiled together and laid on hot.
For this purpose two ounces of log¬
wood chips, with one and a half ounces
of copperas to a quart of water,will be
required. When the work has become
dry wet the surface again with a mix¬
ture of vinegar and steel filings. This
mixture may be made by dissolving
two ounces of steel filings in one-half
pint of vinegar. When the work has
become dry again sandpaper down un¬
• til quite smooth. Then oil and fill it
with powdered drop-black mixed in
the filler. Work to beebonized should
bo smooth and free from holes, etc.
Tho work may receive a tight coat of
quick-drying varnish,aud then be rnb
bod with finely pulverized pumice
stone and linseed oil until very smooth.

Depew on the South.
The great opportunities of our coun¬
try are in tho south. Tho Hood of
immigration which has been pouring
into this country for fifty years has
sought the west, tho northwest and tho
Pacific coast. In these southern states
wo find,as nowhere else in the country,
the original stock which fought at Cow
pens and King’s mountain and York
town. Tho composite of all races which
has developed the continent from the
great lakes to the Pacific has set a stand¬
ard of progress difficult to surpass.
Thoy bad the advantage of virgin soil
and uniuhabited regions in which to
locate and build their Commonwealths
and found their cities. The intelligent
patriotism of the southern people in
the last quarter of a century has over¬
come difficulties which seemed insur¬
mountable. A recognition of tho as ¬
similating and elevating power of edu¬
cation has created the Now South with
its hospitable invitation and boundless
resources. The young men of the
south have no call to tempt fortune in
the crowded cities of the north or tho
east. At their doors and within their
own states are their missions and their
carees. —Chauncey M. Depew.

R Edwards, of Lansingburgh, was pros

has entailed on him peculiar and serious
consequences. At the present writing Mr. E.

Cohoes, and a past aid de camp on the staff

the interview with a reporter he said:
“I was wounded and sent to the hospital
at Winchester. They sent me, together with
others, to Washington—a ride of about 1M
miles. Raving no room in the box cars we
were placed face up on the bottom of flat
cars. The sun beat down upon our unpro
tected heads. When I reached Washington
I was insensible and was unconscious for ten
days while in the hospital. An abscess gath¬
ered in my ear and broke; it has been gath¬
ering and breaking ever since. Tne result
of this 100 mile ride and sunstroke was heart
disease, rheumatism; nervous prostration, insomnia and
which a completely night shattered system
last resort gave I me took no rest Pink Puis or day. As ft
some and they
helped me to a wonderful degree. My rheu¬
matism is gene, my heart failure, dyspepsia
and constipation are about gone, and the ab
SOI SB in my ear has stopped discharging and
my head feels as clear ns a boll, when before
it felt as though it would burst, and my once
shattered nervous system is now nearly
sound. Look at thoso fingers,” Mr. Edwards
said, “do there?” thj3y look as If there was any rheu¬
matism He moved his fingers rapid¬
ly and freely and strode about tho room like
a gnarled young boy. “A year ago those fingers were
at the joints and so stiff that I could
not hold a pen. My knees would swell up
and I could not straighten my legs out My
joints would squeak when I moved them. t
That is the living truth.
“When I came to think that I was going
to be crippled with rheumatism, together
with the rest of my ailments, I tell you life
seemed not worth living. 1 suffered from
