SHEFFIELD PLATE.
History of Thin Nov< Very Rar? and
Valuable Ware.
Sheffield pi.it.- differ from all other
plated ware In thai (he plating was
dono on the shoot metal beforo tin
article was shaj od. I'"-;'. am] since
then plating of various sorts has boon
applied only to the finished piece, as ill
our electroplating process. Moreover,
the plating was dune on copper, while
modern ioiso metal Is usually conr
posed of an amalgam of copper, Iii?
und zinc.
Furthermore, ii la pot Iblo for the
collector to secure examples of early
Hoorgian and so called Queen Aum
work In Shofficld philo, while the
rarity and high money value of silver
ware of that period make II? acquisl
tlon extremely difficult. Sheffield pinto
historically and artistically 11 as worthy
of a place beside old china and old
mahogany as is old silverware.
in 1742 tnie Thomas ?Bol over <>i
Sheffield, England, described In I lie
histories as an "Ingenious mechanic.*'
accidentally fused sun.,- silver and cop
per while repairing n knife. Ho be m
experimenting, seeking for a method ol
plating copper with slb'Ol' for the man
ttfacture of small nrth is. In 1713, to
gether With Joseph W on, ho set up a
factory for the ma mi acluro of buc
kles, snuffboxes and knife handles.
Joseph flnnCOCk SOOtl '_'ot hold of the
secret and, perfecting it, demonstrated
that It was possible to imitate the
llneat and most richly embossed Silver
ware. Settling in Sheffield, he started
tho manufacture of all sorts of domes
tic pieces-. Beginning modestly with
horsepower, be later added water pow
er for tho rolling pn coss. Other man
ufacturers fOl|OWC(l his example, and
Sheilleld plate soon began to I'OplaCO
pewter Oil the tables of the I'.nglish
middle classes. Altogether we know
of twenty-three important tnantlfaCtur
era of this ware.
The Industry flourished until the
middle of tho nineteenth century, and
so few pieces of coppor tolled plate
?were made aller that time that they
need not concern tho collector. Electro
plating was dlscovorcd or Invented by
a medical stndout of Rothorham, near
Sheffield, an' the new process was
patented on March 'S>. 1*10. By 1880
the new ware was on the market ev
erywhero. ami the Industry had been
revolutionised.?Country Life In Amer

A REALISTIC PICTURE.
It Proved Too Absorbing For Old Undo
Juniper.
Ttao Mississippi courtroom was pack
ed with negroes, and it was fairly
evident, says a contributor to the Tay*
lor-Trotwood Magazine, that some
thlng of unusual Interest was about
to transpire. Within the bar on the
prisoner's seat an old negro leaned
eagerly forward as his attorney ar
gued Ids plea of not guilty before the
Jury.
"Who, gentlemen of the jury, has
sworn that ho saw this man commit
tliis theft?" demanded the attorney.
"We have broken every link in the
Weak chain of circumstantial evidence
with which the slate hns tried to en
tangle him Why, his neighbor,g?'om
Jones, swore that ho sold htrrr the
neat that was found In the defend
ant's house and that bo shot the hog
because it was wild.
"It Is (rue that Colonel Smith swore
that one of his hogs disappeared about
Dec. '-'?" ond that about flfty yards
from n certain slump be found blood
and then followed a trail of blood from
that spot to this defendant's cabin. But
what of that?
"This defendant told you?and bis
wife and brother swore the same?that
(hat was the blood of a coon whtclt he
had shot and carried home the day be
foro Smith lost Ids bog. (jive him Ins

black. 'The leopard caunot change his
spots nor the Ethiopian his skin.' for
twenty years be has been a leader In
the church, Lot him remain free to
enjoy (he bread of life with others of
the faithful."
As the lawyer sat down the women,
who bad beeni "weaving" back and
forth for some minutes, commenced to
f.hout:
"Bress de Lawd!"
"Dar, now!"
"Wo knows yo's Innocent, Br'er Juni
per I"
The sheriff had to threaten to clear
the courtroom before order was restor
ed. When nt last there was silence the
district attorney rose.
"Gentlemen of the Jury," be began
in closing the case for the state, "I de
sire only to bring a picture to your
minds."
Here the prisoner adjusted his big
brass rimmed spectacles as If to see
the picture, and his manner showed
that ho was determined to let no detail
escape him.
"The 23d of last December," contin
ue I tbe district attorney, "found Juni
per Bradley without meat. Ills son
?v.is coming to spend Christmas with
dim But Juniper did not worry, for
balf a milo away in Marse Smith'*

xj right and left, now raising,
now lowering !.:?> riilo, he took careful
. and then fired, Imitating the noise

At the sound Juniper, who bad been
Bmillng, apparently oblivious to every
thing .save the district attorney's move
ments, exclaimed:
"Vas, sub, dat's des de way I done
hit. boss!"
The laugh that followed brought Ju
niper to a realization of what he had
done, and he shuffled round in tbe
prisoner's seat, muttering, "Nigger got
no show nohow!"

"On October 18th, last, my little

And make terms to suit your convenience, I sell high-grade Pianos, prize
winners at ail of the great expositions. 1 do not haul Pianos
around, peddle them, and leave them on trial. My
companies are reliable and are able to
Make Good Every Piano.
This peddling <>f Pianos is very expensive and the pur< has er pays the expense
every time. It is strange that sensible people will buy thai way.
Don't you know if you have a Piano ordered direi t
from the factory, it can be sold <>,i a
snorter profit? It's injurious to
Pull and Haul Pianos
About. It loosens them and in a short time they will be "broken down." You
can't do better anywhere. 1 can sell NEW UPRIGHT PIANOS
From $150 to $750
1 can show you many makes of Player Pianos, and will give you the lowest
prices and satifactory terms. Let tne save you money.
