[ which had always been the cheap foun- , datum of Pittsburgh's great iudustrial ! prosperity. The dimiuisliiiig supply j iiud the consequent increase in cost j have i. ‘ccjiitatcd the abandonment of I natural gas by most of the large munuI factuiing establishments in the I’itts1 burgh district, and its use is being j more and more restricted to domestic . .purposes. Pittsburgh lias again be-1 conic the smoky city of fifteen years j ago, alleviated in some measure by the use of fuel oil and manufactured gas, j which have assumed importance with j the decline of natural gas in the lust , four or live years. Natural gas was j not a factor of very great importance in the Pittsburgh district until early iu the '80s and the point of greatest consumption was reached in 1888, after which the decline began. It lias never been feasible to ascertain with accuracy the quantity of natural gas consumed each year, but Joseph I). Weeks, of Pittsburgh, lias prepared for the L’nited States geological survey an estimate of the value of the coal disdisplaeed by natural gas, which lias been accepted as the most practical measure of the consumption of gas. In the period of its largest use to c natural gas consumed in Pennsylvania, measured on this basis, was valued as follows: 1885, $4,500,000; 188(1, $0,000,000; 1887. $14,740,500; 1883, $10.382,'375; 1830, $11,.'>08,98.1; 1800, $0,551,025; 1891, $7,I 834,010; 1392, $7,378,381; 1303, $-1,430.000. In Ohio the supply of natural gas lias | failed even more rapidly than iu Pennsylvania. The largest consumption in Ohio was in 1889, when it amounted in value to $5,315,030, but in 1893 itlial fallen to $1,510,000. The suddenness of the failure of the supply lias caused much inconvenience and loss to manufacturing establishments, which in many instances were deprived of fuel almost without warning. While the supply of natural gas in Pennsylvania and Ohio has been diminishing a new productive region has come into prominence in Indiana, and interest in natural gas is now centered in that state. In l8Sil the value of the gas consumed in Indiana was estimated at only $300,000; in 1888 it was figured at $1,*330,000, and in 1893 the value was placed at $5,718,000. The opening of this new field has stimulated the development of iron and steel and glass enterprises in Indiana in a marked degree. Notwithstanding the abundance of the present supply in Indiana there is no assurance of its continuance fur a longer period than in other states, and a return to fuels more stable, if less convenient, is merely a question of time. In fact, it is claimed by geologists and gas experts that the point of greatest supply has been readied. While it lasts there is no fuel that possesses so many advantages as natural gas. The uncertainty of its duration is its only disadvantage.

A GREAT TIMEPIECE.

A Watch That Hah linn Since 1754 and

la Still a Good Timepiece.

Judge Frederick W. Moore, of the superior court, is the possessor of an heirloom in the shape of a watch that no amount of money would buy, says the St. Louis Republic. And, besides its value as an heirloom, it has a hisj

torie interest.

The timepiece is of the open-face bull's-eye pattern. As with all oldstyle watches of the pattern mentioned, the outer case must be removed before it can be wound. The outer case of this watch is of hammered gold, and all the work on it was done by hand. While this is apparent from the workmanship, it is further proved by the date on the inside, which is 1754 There is an inscription on the inside as fellows: “Daniel Dc St. Leu, Servant to Her Majesty. London.” Her majesty then was the queen of George II., the then reigning king of England. The authentic history of this valuable timepiece Ls this: In the years preceding 1754 William Augustus, duke of Cumberland, the second son of George II., was the commander of the Hritish armies. In the Scottish campaigns and in the campaigns against the Prussians and the Russians, and when he was at the head of the British. Hanoverian and Danish forces of fifty thousand men, Dr. Frederick William Schwurtze, a Hanoverian, was on his staff as surgeon. At the close of the campaign against the Prussians and the Russians the duke had three watches made like

Lot* for This Pastry Itarrnl IIIn Oat of

the Tolplt and Drove Iliui to Forgery.

A most singular case is now iu the courts at Kingston, in this state. A young man living there was lately found to be a forger, and when he con- . fussed be said he was driven to the j crime by an ungovernable gluttony for j mince pie. To satisfy his craving he j hail forged the signature of a wealthy man to a note for one thousand dollars, and had got the paper discounted, says the Buffalo Courier. With the proceeds he went on a iniuee-pie spree, and had devoured sixty dollars’ worth of this

pastry before he was arrested. According to his story his extraordi-

nary liking for mince pie began to show itself when he was a boy. He seemed even then to feel that there was something abnormal in his appetite, for lie went voluntarily to Bloomingdalc asylum in the hope of being cured of his gluttony. After he came out he believed lie was cured and began to study for the ministry. But in a fatal hour, about two years later, the mania for pie came upon him with irresistible power. He broke into the housekeeper's closet in the Auburn Theological seminary, where ho was a student, and gorged himself with mince pic. Ills relapse so preyed upon him that lie went to tho faculty, and they advised him, he says, to drop his studies, as it would be detrimental to the ministerial calling for him to enter it with such a fatal appetite for mince pie. He would be likely to suffer a seizure of his mania at a supper iu the church parlors or at the tabic of one of his flock, and create an unforgetable scandal. Ho took the advice of the faculty and went to peddling clothes-wringers and bed springs, but his malady was now so deep seated that he subordinated everything to ids craving, lie developed an unusual cunning for stealing

YOUNG MEN IN THE SENATE.

At the time Zach Chandler was first a member of the senate he was one of the youngest members of that body. Besides having a youthful appearance, all the other men seemed quite oM to him. On the last day of the first term of Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, Chandler and he sat i.i the barber shop and chatted about events of the session, and finally Chandler began talking about his earlier career, says the Wash-

ington Star.

“When I went to Detroit,” he said, “there were id it more than fifty houses in the place. Now it has become one of the leading cities in the west. Michigan was a territory, and we had some pretty luird times there, but 1 stuck to it. and have been rather successful. Why," he added, rather proudly, “I was elected to the senate when 1 was forty-four years old." “That’s nothing,” aswered Senator

Mitchell, laconically.

“Nothing!” exclaimed Chandler. “Well, I consider it a great deal to have been elected to the United States

senate at forty-four.”

“Well," replied Mitchell, quietly, “I have served six years in tho senate and

am not forty-four yet.”

“I give it up," responded Chandler. “You have the best of me. The further west we go the more push we have.” Senator Mitchell is still a younglooking man, yet there is only one man in the senate who « as a senator when he was first sworn in who has served continuously. That is Senator Morrill, of Vermont. Sherman, of Ohio, and Stewart, of Nevada, were members of the senate at the time Senator Mitchell was elected, but both have been out, Senator Sherman as secretary of the treasury for four years, and Senator Stewart six years, while another man represented Nevada. Senator Mitchell's first term began in 1873. After serving six years ho was defeated, a democratic legislature having been chosen. Six years later lie was again elected, and

has since been reelected. How the Ilee-i Work.

Ireland, "Lhe consecrated blizzard” of St. Paul, is probably tho wealthiest. Mis personal fortune comes from land investment, made befor ■ the marvelous growth of the western cities near his home und from railroad enterprises in which lie had been included by the intimate and powerful friends he has among the western trunk lino magnates. According to his admirers, the bulk of his income goes to the poor missions and churches that form no inconsiderable part of his province. Archbishop Corrigan lias a modest patrimony from Ills father's estate. It is doubtful if he has increased it from the salary of his office, which, us has already been explained, is well balanced by the demands continually made on it. He is now much interested in the completion of the new diocesan seminary near Yonkers. His personal contribution to it is the erection of the chapel of the institution. This will probably cost him seventy-five thousand dollars. Cardinal Gibbons does not get a very large income from the small diocese of Baltimore. It is well known that lie hesitated for s ime time about accepting tho red hat, for the reason that he wa-s too poor to incur the very considerable expense that accompanied such an honor. Archbishop Williams, of Boston.whose name has more than once been mentioned for a second hat. lias also given this reason for a refusal. The other .lay ho commemorated his sacerdotal jubilee, and one of the gifts from his admiring subjects was a check for fifty thousand dollars. Perhaps he may now see his way to nn acceptance of a scat in tho senate of the church, where, it is said, the pope desires to have him. Archbishops Feehan, of Chicago; Riordan, of San Francisco; Gross, of Oregon; Ryan, of Philadelphia; Chap>olle, of Santa Fc; Katz r, of Milwaukee; Janssens, of New Or! • a ns, and Ilennessy, of Dubuque, are all comparatively poor men.

The Newly-Rich. Wealtli and ignorance sometimes go hand in hand. To a jewelry store in a small town there drove up one day a handsomely dressed lady, who entered, and, after some preliminary flourishes, asked for a dozen souvenir spoons. “A dozen souvenir spoons?" repeated the clerk, in natural surprise. “Yes,” replied the lady, placidly, "a dozen ‘ uvciiir spoons—to eat souvenirs with, you know. My daughter makes beautiful souvenirs.” The clerk turned pale, and exhibited a tray of orange spoons, on a venture. She selected a dozen and carried them away, and tho clerk is still wondering hat she reallj wanted.

HOV/WOMEN'S V/HEELG DEVELOP Only a Few Venn. Ago Manufacturers

Would Not Make Them.

It affords the pioneer women cyclers no little amusement and satisfaction to recall the days when bicycle manufacturers, in reply to requests for women's wheels, would say with emphasis: “We have never manufactured a woman’s wheel and we never will.” In those early days of wheeling, bicycles for American women were imported from England. One woman who had never se n a bicycle, but hn«l read of them and was possessed of the true wheeling spirit, bought one of these cumbrous machines. It had wheels thirty inches high, weighed over fifty pounds, had a solid tiro and cost one hundred and forty dollars. The first ride of the owner upon this machine of solid weight and worth covered ten miles, and preduced a sprained ankle, a black eye and an entirely demolished gown. Tho rider’s spirit was unbroken, however, and, after a rest of two weeks, she mounted again and rode to victory. In these days of teachers, trainers alid countless comfortable appliances, it is refreshing to know of these Spartan achievements. While many women ride diamond frai'ii s and an increased number will rdit’.os.; continue to do so, the radical differences between a man's wheel and a woman's will always be the drop fra re. When the bicycle is regarded -imply as a vehicle anil not as a toy or inn bine for display, the majority of women will probably wear skirts. A short skirt of sensible length avoids the actual danger of entanglement in chain ou pv dais. Still the inventor who e::r. find any method of placing the chain under cover in a drop frame, without adding to the weight of the wheel, will meet a “long-fAt want.” Along this line the especial development of the woman's machine must come. Out of the multitude of counselors is finally coming wisdom on the subject of woman's bicycle dress, lhe latest results attained enable a rider to go fitted for any kind of weather. She may start in low shoes, heavy woolen stockings, knickerbockers and lightweight silk blouse on a hot summer morning, with a soft, round felt hat or cap with visor to protect her eyes. She can also carry a small package, and, if it rains, take from that package a jacket with square rovers, which button back on themselves or across each other. The jacket, knickerbockers and cap are nil rainproof. If it grows colder she may don leggins and skirt of a length above the ankles, also rainproof. Thus equipped, the can defy the elementst The greatest stress should be placed upon a jacket which will cover the cites, and protect the lungs if necessary.
