Economical Production OF Iron.

The New York Times says: When we
last referred to the very interesting e1-
periments in the economical production
Of iron which are being made on one ot
the celebrated Isabella furnaces at Pitts
burCh, the average production of that
furnace had been raised from rather less
than 800 to 6l3 tons per week. Since the
middle of October the weekly production
has gone on increasing, till for the week
ending Nov. :. il attained the very hlgh
figure of 602I tons. The average weekly
Production for the four weeks ending
November I, was 66l tons $50 pounds.
The largest days run which has been
made WAS on Thursday, October ~,
when $50 tons ,4SO pounds were turned
out. About two-thirds of this product
was No. l foundry iron, and one-third
No. mill iron. This is claimed to be a
result ahead of any attained by any iur-
mace in the world. The No. ] Isabelle
furnace, which has been the subject OF
these very successful experiments, has q
capacity Of l0,7O0 cubic feet. The bur-
den Of the furnace while running as above
stated was 7S7 pounds ofcoke, $50 pounds
Of ore and cinders, and 375 pounds OF
Limestone. The pressure was n pounds
blown bytwo blast engines, "a inch cylin-
Der and 4 feet stroke, running 2S revo'
iutions per minute, blowing through
seven s inch tuyeres, and the heat being
s,uopplied by four hot blast ovens-hest oi

PICKING OUT THE PRETTY ONES.
A New York Manager Selecting His
Black Crook Troupe from Among
Four Hundred Poor Girls.

New York Sun, November II.
In the green room of the Grand Opera
House at ten o'clock yesterday morning,
seated on the chairs and sofas and lean
ing against the walls were over four hun
dred beautiful girls. An advertisement
in yesterdays Sun for "two hundred
more comely maidens for the new
Black Crook" had called this as
semblage together bright and early,
each would-be fairy hoping for u
lucrative station in the line of beauty.
As they filed past the manager
one by one, each had some special
qualification. One had been on the stage
at Niblo's theater, and would like to 60
on again, il she could get place in the
front line, "but you know l couldn't af-
ford TO take q back seat-not me-" An
other would "take hand" she said, "if
she could get enough pay to keep her
little sister" A faded little old woman,
in a suit of faded black, hobbled up to the
window and begged for place in one of
the back rows. A saucy little mink with
a fashy red scarf twas all theresl there
was of her-if they wanted her they
could have her" And they did want
her, for shewas beautiful. Next letter
of recommendation from San FraR-
cisco troupe was raised up to the window
bya mite Of body with jaunty parasOl
on her arm and satchel in her hand
A pretty miss of thirteen, neatly dress
ed, with pink on each cheek, was ten
derly taken into the office where she
would not be jostled by the crowd. Then
followed a dozen or so of the 'faIr to
middling,' one or two extra supertine,'
and long file Of the common places
the sstute manager meanwhile taking his
choice and making his selections with the
skill OF an old stager.
At last the green room was empty
the sylphs had disappeared-and the
manager sat in his furnished Office to en-
joy a good cigar.
How did you manage to collect so
many girls who wished to go on the
stage?" asked the reporter.
"Oh, that was easily DONE replied the
manager, 'four lines in this morning ;
Sun did it. have answered four hum
dred and twenty applicants-a little over
one hundred applicants for each line OF
advertising. l would have been glad to
give them all work, but too many would
crowd the dressing rooms"
"These girls, of course, are only for
show. Where do you find your artists
who do the singing and dancing|
1--WE make special contracts with them.
Some of the best operate talent in Amer
lea will be presented in the new Black
Crook; To good dancer we pay $50 Il
week. The singers get more. u these
girls, who have not been on the stage,
we pay $40 week"
