Oaa ef the Moat Mar veto CootrlT ancee la the World of Indaatrjr. Glass has at last been successfully blown by machinery and, as has gen erally been the case when mechanical means supersede hand methods, all feats of hand blowing have been out done. The secret of the remarkable Inven tion Is still hidden, but specimens of tie work done have been shown. The cylinders are of Immense else, the larg est being thirty Inches In diameter and Ltneteen feet long. The new machine Is the invention of John A. Lubbers, a glassfelower of Al legheny, Pa. It has been built at the Alexandria, IndH branch of the Ameri can Window Glass Company's plant. The process of blowing window glass Is Mmple In theory, but difficult In practice. On the end of a long tube a mass of molten glass Is collected. This Is then heated In a furnace and gradually distended by blowing Into a larj,, tube with straight sldea. To accomplish this without the pecu liar twisting and manipulation employ ed by the human glassblower has pus clcd many clever inventors, and the Lubbers machine was made successful only after a great many experiments. Lubbers has Invented several labor saving device and this latest triumph la likely to make htm many times a millionaire when It la generally In stalled. Skilled mechanics from the Westing house factories In Pittsburg have been working behind barred gates and high walls for months in the erection and Installation of the machines, which no man other than old and skilled em ployes of the company was allowed to see. Patents have not yet been granted on certain parts of the machines and therefore the secrecy. So confident Is the company of the merits of the machine that It is pre paring to spend thousands of dollars In its installation in all of the forty one plants controlled by it in various parts of the country. It is expected that the device will do away with hand blowers altogether. So confident are the men that this will be the case that many are getting out of the business. The better class of blowers earn from $450 to $000 a month. New York World. ART OF BATTINQ THE BALL. Breanahan, the Olaata' Beat Bitter, Give Points on the Game. Confidence and good eye are the prin cipal things a baseball player must possess If he wishes to become a good batter, together with the ability to Judge from the location of the oppos ing fielders where they expect the man at the bat to hit the balL The man who stands close to the piste while at the bat and bears in mind that every pitcher, no matter who he Is or what his reputation may be, must put the ball over the rubber, can, with prac tice, become a good and, I may say, a dangerous hitter, even If he has not the natural ability of some of the great batter of the past and present, says Roger Bresnahan In the Illus trated Sporting News. una very oaa fault many young players have la the hsblt of pulling away from the plate, as It Is called, when a ball looks as though It might possibly hit the batter. How many times have you seen a jnan step back from a curved ball which a second after "cut the plate" and was called a strike, much to his dlscomforture? The remedy for this, I think, Is a sim ple one, which can be mastered by any young man possessing the neces sary confidence: It is simply to step forward and meet the ball before It crosses the plate. In this way the ball Is always In front of the batter, and he Is, so to speak, on top of It before It breaks. Many pitchers hsve a puzzling drop ball which looks easy and fades away from the bat when you strike at It. On the other hand, many of the best boxmen are now using a rise ball pltbced with a side arm motion. A batter has a much better chance to kill either of these balls by stepping Into them to the limit of the batter's box as they approach the plate. The same .hing applies to balls either on the in side or the outside of the plate. It Is much easier to hit the ball by running In on It. By meeting the ball early it can be sent In the direction of the left field. Thf, old theory that If you wish to strike a ball toward the right field you must strike at it after it has crossed the plate is pretty well exploded. By stepping In and meeting the ball In front of you It Is just as easy, if not easier, to drive It toward right field as It Is to pull It Into left field. Boncrht has borne the fiitmsw. Signature of WASHINGTON. v y x x yr 'x'( --v i-j.t.: .! -,;j ; .V v:,?xk " j..ox-.- tx v x, -;' 14 ' V" The fame of Washington is so im meuse aiui the HHular tvnctition of his character so exalted, that some skeptical and fault-timling critics are disposed to question the universal estimate, and es pecially in the matter of his ability as a soldier and military commander. How ever much we may wish it otherwise. there is in human nature a mean spirit of envy and detraction which instinctive ly feels the honors bestowed upon a great man to be an indirect reflection and re buke to its own littleness and baseness. This spirit cropped out conspicuously in the case of Columbus, in the efforts to belittle his great exploit ami to blacken his character. 1 do not say that criti cisms upon Washington's generalship all proceed from base motives, but they doubtless do mostly come from the spirit and Innate tendency which I have Indi cated. This unworthy spirit is as old as history, as old as humanity. It showed itself in a memorable fashion when the old Athenians wrote their sentence of banishment agaiust Aristides because they were tired of hearing him called "the just," Great soldiers are to be judged not alone by success, by battles fought and victories won though this, of course, is the great popular test but by. all the cir cumstances and difficulties in which they are placed. There ure great commanders in history who have won fame by avoid ing battles, like the Human Fabius, and even by great retreats like Xenophon with his ten thousand Greeks, if Wash ington is to be compared, to his disad vantage, with Napoleon, then the popu lar question is, would Napoleon, under the same circumstances, have done uuy better? It is enough for any command er that he tills the great measure of his requirement. This, of course, is not say ing that Washington would have filled the place of Napoleon in the vastly differ ent field and circumstances in which that great soldier won his fame. Nor should It be forgotten, .all the while, that ulti mately Washington succeeded and found ed a nation, while Napoleon failed and lost an empire. V. ashitiKton'e Difficult Tat It. The diraculties which encountered Washington when he took up his great trust as commander-in-chief of the con tinental army were most complicated and immense. The theater of the strug gle was a vast one, geographically, stretching along the Atlantic coast from Massachusetts to South Carolina, while the whole population was only three mill- Ions not very much greater than that of the State of Michigan, and not so great into a million as that of Illinois. Out of this small, scattering and peace ful population an array was to be raised. organized and equipped capable of con tending with the chief military and mari time power of the globe. And it was fiii d MARTHA WASHINGTON. GEORGE WASHINGTON IP TO DATE. That cherry tree episode with a Ledger. Iw. i s x J. VxXv'llWHk , x not to be a struggle betweeu government and government, between one nation and another, it was a rebellion, and there was really no central authority, no arms or warlike stores, no navy, no treasury or finani-ial system or responsibility. It was only a brave a nod patriotic people, small la numbers, without discipline or military experience, without arms and without money, rushing thus hare-handed into a conflict with the mother country, their own government: a powerful nation, which had recently been raised by the genius of the elder Pitt to the front rank among the great warlike nations of the world a nation whose military posts and possessions already dotted the globe, whose victorious navies covered every ocean and sea, whose morning drum Wat, as Webster said, was heard round the world. It was against such a power as this that this handful of patriots had thrown down the gage of rebellion and defiance. Washington is known in history as a providential man; that is, n man raised up by l'mvidenea to fill a great place and perforin a great mission. However this may be. he certainly had great part: aud great and peculiar fitness for the most difficult and trying place which he filled in history. He had had experi ence in the previous Indian and French wars, and had proven himself a wise, competent and heroic officer. He had great personal advantages for command. He was of fine physique aud imposing presence, a splendid horr man, carrying with him ever the port and air of au thority and- native majesty an ideal commander. So when this noble Virginian appeared before that northern army and drew his swoni as tneir coniuiamler under those I Cambridge elms his fame hnd preceded him and he wa received with shouts of welcome nrt connrtrure. Then alt men knew it was to lie a struggle to the death. Hardly a better instance does history afford of patience under provocation, of dogged determination under difficulties, of uucomitienible will and courage, holding on so long and coming out triumphant at last over such mighty opposition. These great qualities, as we have already seen, belonged to. the man more than to the soldier. It was indeed the great aI1 1 behind the soldier, the man with the great patriotic heart, with the wise head, and the lofty, mishakcu soul, that brought us through that long and tremen dous struggle and gave us our glorious plat e and opportunity among the nations. No other man on this continent but he could have done it. (Ireene, among the generals of the revolution, would have come nearest to it. hut he would have failed. But in looking over the whole field and record, in the light of all the facts and history, it will be seen that Washington made no military mistakes, that he im proved all his opportunities, that his generalship will stand the test of criti cism. He struck whenever he had the chance, his plans were good, and when compelled, his retreats were masterly. Critics. Soubrette The lending lady's face Is a study. . Comedian Yea; a railroad study.
