Great care is taken in the shops of
jewellers and others where articles are
manufactured of gold to prevent the
waste of the precious metal. Every
scrap of fling, scraping or grinding is
pyeserv we'd for the assayer. The buff
wheels on which gold or silver are pol
ished, when they are worn out, are
burned, and the fire soon develops fine
particles of the precious metals that
cannot be seen with the naked eye.
Even the sweepings of the shops are
kept, and are worth about $40 barrel
after the most scrupulous care has been
taken to prevent stray pieces getting in
to it. 1t is said that the Scotch assayers
are most successful. Sometimes assay
ers will buy the sweepings of a shop at
a given price per barrel, taking the risk
of what they will yield.
Whenever a shop floor is to be taken
up and renewed, it is always calculated
that the dirt accumulated in the ereVices
will more than pay the cost of the new
floor Jewellers say that the value of
the shop dirt is owing to the dust of
metals that is blown about the place,
and not from any carelessness of work
men. Even after the assayers have got
through the loss on jewelers. stock is
generally about two per cent. This in
cludes whatever may be taken, if any
thing, by dishonest workmen.-NetO

When DIR. Robert Finley took into
his home at Basking Ridge four lads as
pupils in private school, it was appa-
rently an insignificant undertaking. For
man of his consummate intellectual
and moral power to be spending his
time in teaching four boys provoked his
friends to interpose remonstrance. His
answer was sublime.
cit will prove no waste of time or
strength if these boys shall make the
sort of men that, by Gods grace, I mean
they shall"
So he plodded on, laboriously laying
the foundations not of culture only, but
of character. Like Arnold at Rugby
and Mary Lyon at South Hadley, he
taught, first of all, that conscience and
the Bible must find in the heart and
life shrine and a throne. He gave
these boys a thorough moral training,
as well as thorough intellectual dis
cipline.
Who did those four boys afterward
become? They were Chancellor Green,
Governor Vroom, Judge Dayton and
Samuel L. Southland.

Between the Tides.

A fawless day was the twenty-third of
April in the year of our Lord eighteen
hundred and seventy nine. The regu-
lation morning breezes had been lured
into the poppy fields of Angel island
and put to sleep by the narcotic kisses
of Circe. And even the zephyrs-gentle
pages to the erst-while brawlers-had
been shut up in the weather clerks
signal-box until o'clock in the after
noon. Then the yachts came out and
the zephyrs We're released. 1t was not
very good weather for sailing that the
zephyrs made, though they blew till
theirrosy cheeks were like soap bubbles,
and the white sails were filed with
scented breath. The numbering schoon-
ers staggered in zigzag pathways, as if
they meant to slice away the island
noses with their dull prows; and, in
deed, the yachts sailed scarcely any
faster, only the little plungers made un-
checked headway, running at their own
sweet will, it seemed. The north har-
Dor was dotted with sails, Every
body and eYerybody's wife and children
and friends were out. So there was
nothing strange about the mere pres
ence of a young man and young woman
in small rowboat amid the scenes OF
lazy commerce and busy gayety. Ger
tainly it was not strange, for there were
ahundred other people out that after
noon in rowboats, to say nothing of the
professional boatmen, the men witt
sculls and the rowing clubs. If the
people on the yachts which they me-
nOticad than thew dOubtlesglV viewed

Up to 1879, when he died, David
A. Irish, staid old Quaker, re
sided on Quaker Hill in tho town of
Pawlings, Dutchess county, NY. About
10 years ago he married Miss HallOck,
daughter of Jos. Hallock, also Quaker
Irish's wife lived only about a year. and
early in 1875, it is alleged, he married his
hOusekeeper, an uneducated woman
named Margaret Hankins, who was
a widow with two children. This
marriage did not take place in pres
cnce of witnesses, but was rather
mutual contract. drawn up by Mr.. Irish,
which both signed. A boy, William
Henry, was born of this marriage, January
IL, 1876. After the birth of this child
the parents did not lead very pleasant
domestic life, and when the baby was
about three weeks old they had quarrel,

garet 81 600 to leave him and never trouble
him more. She then went to Brewsters
and soon married man named Dooley,
and still lives with him at Harlem.
On June 20, 1878, Irish was married to
Miss Nettie HallOck, sister of his first

and carried it to the farm of Chas. R,bin-

when he died very suddenly, leaving no
will and making no provisions for the dis

at $50, 900. Mrs. Irish No. was made
