Mr. and Mrs, Dr. Harding left last evening for a pleasure and health seeking trip to Colo- rado, expecting to be gone a month or two. Mr. Harding has been in ill health for some time, and his wife has become nearly worn out in attending to the many demands upon her time and skill. Many here hope that both will speedily return in health and vigor, as both have a strong hold upon the esteem and affection of this community. He is known as one of our best citizens, while Mrs. Dr. Harding, not content with the education she has received from the best electrical insti- tutionsin the land, has been making original investigations and discovered new methods aud appliances, entitling her to a front rank among those in the profession. During the past six years she has gained much reputation as an electrician and physician, and it is a ‘matter of congratulation that she is, on her re- turn, to reopen her institute here, The Cambria Iron Works. Geo. L. Lathrop, in Harper's Magazine for August., At Johnstown, in the valley of the Conemaugh, we encounter the works of the Cambria Iron Company, which roar and flame proudly, as if aware that they constitute probably the biggest single iron and steel works in the world. The company employs 8000 operatives; keeps nine furnaces going at this place and four elsewhere; has perlaps eighty acres un- der roof at Johnstown; mines 700,000 tons of coal a year for its own use, and does annually a business of $18,000,000 or $20,000,000. It produced in 1881, 45,000 tons of iron rails and 120,000 tons of steel, saying nothing of steel springs in quantity, boiler iron, or the machinery manufactured for its own use. It is th recording that eminent foreign mechanicians have admitted that at Johnstown three times the amount of work is done which would be accomplish- ed with the same plant in Europe. In and out of the shops and all through the yards wind forty miles of track, on which trains loaded with ore, coal, slag, or hot ingots of steel are running every moment or two, eighteen locomotives being kept in use for this purpose, and several sta k less ones for running into the adjacent mines. The steel ingots, by-the-way, are the largest steel castings made any- where, uxccylingl(rupp cannon,and weigh 5500 pounds each, measuring eighteen inches and a half ‘square, and yielding eight rails apiece. The works were founded at this spot with the idea of ng the iron ore of the vicinity; but steel has now become a_supreme obj and ores are brought from Spain, Irc. land, Elha, and Michigan to mix with the local brown hematites, The direct coal flame is not used in fusing the or but only the gasses generated from coal This intensified heat is stored in Whit- worth stoves—immense iron-bound cylinders like chimneys, inside of which the temperature is 1700° Fahrenheit.

Capt. Ericsson's Destroyer, The new series of trial trips of Capt. Ericsson's torpedo boat, the Destroyer, cannot fail to awaken universal interest. The central feature of the new inven- tion is submarine artillery. Ifit is proved in practical experiments with the vessel, under circumstances analogous to those of actual hostile operations, that the Destroyer can discharge her gun under water, in such a way, 48 to take effect against the hull of un enemy, this new instrument of warfare will be exceeding- ly important, The series of experiments of this sort conducted some time ago, under the supervision of & naval officer, were promising, and although some con. ditions were then unfavorable, and the ofticer in question desived fuller demon strations and some improvements, he did not fail to commend the re nally achieved, Kullor satisfaction may now be expected, as improvements have L effected, sun. To the United States this appliance is specially sub; nportant, as it may prove the itute for expensiveironclads, a potent bor defence Should it be as suc cessful as is hoped, the Destroyer will mark a revolutionary epoch in naval warfare not less memorable than that of the Monitor, | — 7 boauty trly bont whows e and white) Nature's own sweet and cunniug hand lai on,” Pozzoni's powder imparts & richness [ Making the skin as soft ws down, “Why a person cannot even kiss with- ““Oh, Mr. Budd. it is really too bad of Mr. Budd seized her hand and kissed She permitted it to remain in his a—a—what do you call it!—a sphincter Let me try Then he tried again, and while he held her she explained to him about the mus- cles of that portion of the human body. ““It is remarkable how much you know Now, for_example, what is the bone at the back of the head “Well, now, let me show you what I infra-spiralis around your waist, 8o, it is your occipital r.

D, Todd, private watchman at the corner of Mosnier and Calhoun streets, caught Monday in that locality a monster spider, with & diameter when spread of over four inches. He brought it yester- day to the Sun office. Professor Ot Lugger says it is the “Mygalo Hentuz, an American species of the gigantic bird- | spider, and it is supposed to have been - | brought to Baltimore in a shipment of bananas from Florida. As the animal is nocturnal in its habits, it may be in any ocality or wander about for some time without being discovered. This spider is erroncously called a tarrantula. Tt is found throughout all the drier portions of the western and southwestern states, extending into Mexico, where it is repl . | ed by a still larger species. 1t is consid- ered a very poisonous animal, though whether truly 8o or not is a point still to be demonstrated. Like all spiders, its . | fang-like mandibles are perforated, and a + | canal communicates with a bag af poison located in its base. When they bite the poison is injected into the wound, From the fact that its mandibles can not be sep- arated to any great extent it is question- able whether it even could inflict a bite ona human finger. The habit of this spider is to hide during the day in a clos ly-woven tuve of silk, which is either sus- pended between foliage or between stones on the ground. Tn the tropical parts of South America these spiders are very abundant in houses, where they feed upon various kinds of domestic insect pests, and are not dreaded atall. Large and formidable as it ap- pears, it has a_deadly enemy in a largo species of *‘digger-wasp,” which stings and paralyzes it. The “digger-wasp” is the so-called “‘tarantulla-killer.,” 'This wasp, though living itself upon nothing but honey, still needs animal food for its young. The mother wasp, after having dug a hele in some hard and_dry soil to the depth of seven inches, flics about in search of one of theso lurge spiders. When found, it darts like lightning upon the spider and stings it. The poison in- jected into the spider has the peculiar property of paralyzng without killing. The helpless spider is dragged to the pro- pared nest and a liquid egg llu]nmih'xf on its soft parts and the hole closed, The larviw hatched from the egg feeds upon |¢ the still living but defenseless spider un- til full grown. 1f such an egg should not hateh the spider will remaimn in this hole for an indefinite period without dying or decaying, Efforts have been made for a long time by scientists to imitate artificially a fluid of this peculiar character, with a view of treating Texas cattle ns wasps treat spi- ders, for transportation to Europe, W ile in the pamlyzed state and not needin any food or water, they could be place on ships like sardines, and killed as want- ed after their arrival in Europe. It has been shown that such poison taken in- ternally is perfectly harmloss to the con- |sumers of the meat. The system of medicine known as Baumscheidtism had its origin in consequence of Baumscheidt being cured of rheumatism and paralysts by the sting of & common *‘digger wasp.” | — The Aged Philadelphians Who Died, During the first six months of 1883 the | deaths announced in the obituary columns | of the Public Ledger of persons who had lived to or beyond the advanced age of | eighty years numbered 509217 men and 2 women—a greater than had previous. unced during any correspond | ing period ur were centenarians-Mary Aun Conriv native of Bavaria, and et of Henry Conrad, o soldicr under | poleon Bonaparte, died Jan | was one hundred and three month and three days old, and ty grandehildren aud twelve great-grand- children.
