How Watch Cases are Made. In 1875, thirteen men comprised the entire working force used in the manu- facture of the James Boss’ Gold Watch Case. Now over five hundred are employed, and the number is constantly increasing. The rea- son of this increase is this: In the Jamcs Boss’ Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight and subject to wear is solid gold,while the re- mainder, which only lends strength to the case, is of stronger metal than gold, |giving gold where gold is needed, and ‘strong, elastic metal where strength and elasticity are needed, a combination pro- | ducing a watch case better than solid gold and at ONE-HALF the cost. aa Over 200,000 of these cases ™ FY ~ have been sold, and every jeweler in the country can testify to their quality and Myon., Dec. 5, 1982. aye ee spring which they called St. ja, on the 26th parallel of latitude.

A gentleman in this city has re- ceived a number of inquiries by peo- | ple wanting to know what became | of the four conspirators in the assas- | sination of Abraham Lincoln, who | were sentenced to imprisonment at After a diligent inquiry recently he has been able to partially turnish the desired informa- tion. It will be tresh news to a good many people. Dr. Samuel A. Mudd was the most prominent of the four. He was the one who set Booth’s leg and furnished what was believed to be talse intormation to throw Booth’s pursuers off the trail. Samuel B. Armold, a wagonmaker, provided certaiz. vehicles that were to be used in carrying out the plot. Edward Spangler, a stage carpenter, bored a hole in the box occupied dent Lincoln, through which Booth could observe the President’s posi- Michael O’Laughlin was the by Presi- tion. youngest of the four, being a mere most good, and went through our hand-me-down trunk in search ot the festiye old and greasy euchre deck, which she ever faithfully offered up on « burning live coals.
