The most plentiful thing just at pre- sent is tramps. - The drop in the oil market has given the oil producers the dumps. to take their hats off at the theater. Sweeping with air is the latest. This is accomplished with the \pneu- matic sweeper; a new invention. At the a al meeting of the Alle gany County Xi. A.

Gros has accomp lished a piece of mechanical work which is a marvel of skill and fineness and at first thought appears almost impossible. He has taken an ordinary brass pin and drilled a hole through it lengthwise. Into this hole he has in- serted a common needle and length- wise through the needle has drilled another hole. The skill and tience required to successfully cGrrplete this delicate plece of work will be at once appreciated, and the fact that he has Gros a reputation for skill in the use} of jeweler's tools that very few can hope to acquire. It is undoubtedly as] ' fine a sample of the jewelér's art as is | to be found anywhere in this section. ! This wonderful piece of workmanship may be seen at Mr. Gros' Jewelry store.

Newberry's chances of retaining his seat as junior senator from Michigan were rendered ex- tremely slim by the sudden decision of five more Republicans to vote to unseat him. This number, added to the 8 Republicans and 35 Democrats previously committed in favor of his expulsion, makes a sure total of 48 votes, or more than a majority, as not more than 95 votes will be cast. The five Republican senators who took this stand apparently spells the end of Newberry's career in the sen ate. 330,015 Unemployed In N. Y.
