Mallsabls Castings.

Considerable pretenee of mystery, says
the ScieAti6e 4meTieaR, is assumed by
manufacturers Of malleable castings both
10 this aud the old country, and doubtless
there are some trade secrets Of value to
those 10 the trade relative TO mixtures Of
different irons, etc, but the process is in
itself simple, aud little experience should
enable any foundryman to attain cred
liable success in it. Nearly every founder
has his own mixtures aud methods, but
they are all based upon the processes of
Samuel Lucas, of Dronfeld, which date
back to 1911 The general features Of the
process, as carried out by the Birmingham,
England, iron founders, is given in the
IroRmoRgeT, as follows
"For the purpose of the casting, pig Of
fine quality is needed, and great care is
used in the preparation Of the moulds, so
that there may be no flaw or imperfection
in the casting. The latter, after cooling,
is, of course, hard and brittle, and it is to
remove this brittleness aud give it the
character of malleable iron that the special
process is required. The casting is now
placed in Theoretically sealed pots or boxes
surrounded by powdered ore, and subjected
for several days to intense heat, which, by
cemcntation, gradually sOftens it and rem
ders it malleable to the core, when it may
be bent or wound into any shape. The
annealiug process takes ordinarily about
ten days. Thus pot made up on Tues
day is got up to a white heat about Fri
day, and this heat is maintained for some
twenty -four hours or more, according to
the size or thinkness Of the article anneal-
ed. The fire is then allowed to die down,
and when the mass is cool the castings are
found to be thoroughly anuealed and NAL
leable. Scarcely trade in Birmingham
fails to use malleable castings for some
purpose or another.

How RAIsINs ARE MADE IN CALIFoR
NIA.--In Mr.. Blowers viney lard, Iolo
county, the grapes are allowed to remain
on the vine until of a golden color and
translucent. Then they are picked and
put on wooden trays two by three feet in
size, placed between the rows, sloping to
the sun. When half dried they are turn
ed by putting tray on top, and by invert-
ing them both, are transferred to the new
tray. When the grapes lose their ashy
appearance, and after removing the green
ones, the rest are put into large sweat
boxes, placing sheets of paper between
every twenty live pounds of raisins. They
are left there for two weeks, when the
stems are tough and the raisins soft. The
packing follows, in which iron or steel
packing frames are used, the raisins being
assorted, weighed, inspected and made pre-
sentable. Mr.. Blowers prefers a rich,
moist, sandy loan, in warm climate, for
raisins, and believes that winter irrigation
vii! destroy insects and keep the vines in
thrifty condition. He prefers to plant
vines eight by ten feet apart, or even ten
by ten feet, and uses fertilizers.

When the evils of Extravaganza p"

THE HUDSON RIVER TUNNEL.-Ac-
cording to the Rail'eay Ne'os, the Hudson
River Tunnel is advancing satisfactorily
toward the New York shore at the rate OF
FIVE feet day. Two hundred men are
employed digging out the dirt and putting
in the iron and brick work. The tunnel
is finished as they go along, and the work
is much safer than under the old plan,
which resulted so disastrously. A small
tunnel, about six feet in diameter, is run
ahead of the larger tunnel, which follows
and incloses it; warning is thus given of
the nature of the soil. The work is now
in the south tunnel, which is now com
pleted 290 feet from the shaft, and will
soon be out as far as the north tunnel,
which has been cleaned out, but not ex-
tended, since the accident Both tunnels
will then be carried along together. A
caisson is in course of construction for
beginning the work on the New York side,

\ Cows CCD.-The situation, the

in the mouth only sufficient mastication to

rumen is moderately full, it will contract

A Texas Virginius.

One year ago George Arnold went to
Dallas, Texas, on private business, and
while walking the streets was bitten by a
worthless cur which was frothing at the
mouth aud showing other symptoms of
hydrophobia Mr.. Arnold became alarmed
and very much excited when convinced in
his own mind the dog was mad. He went
to a physician and had the wound severe
ly cauteriIed Then, going home, he was
still very uneasy and dreaded hydrophobia
so much that he hunted up maidstone
and had it applied for several weeks, of
and on. lie took every other precaution
which was suggested, resting all the time
under mortal dread that the virus had
gone into his system aud would sooner or
later kill him. He had q wife aud several
children living on rather isolated farm,
aud the thought that ho might suddenly
lose his reason and harm his little babies
horri6ed him The other day he began
to experience strange feelings, and at once
concluded his time had come. He then
procured twelve.foOt trace chain aud
strong lock, and went to the woods
Afler writing his wife letter, in which
he told her what was about TO happen,
giving directions as to his wishes after
death, and pouring out volume Of love
for her and the children, he ran the chain
around a tree, drew ii through the large
ring at the end and then wound the other
eud round his ankle so tight that 1t would
not slip the foot, locked it with the lock
and threw the key far beyond his reach.
The body was found two days after still
chained to the tree. There was all the
evidence necessary 10 show the horrible
death from hydrophobia. The ground
was torn up to the full length Of the chain,
the nails Of the fingers wrenehed OF and
his fraus teeth out IN scratching and biting
the tree, aud every thread Of clothing oH
his body. The body was dreadfully laeer-
aied with these, the only weapons the
madman could use. He had judged right
" what would have been the consequence
had be remained at home, and knowing
that there was no human skill that eou ID
have cured him, preferred death alone, and
10 ,ha, way, to doing harm to those 50
near and dear to him as wife aud children.
Arnold was originally from Talladega, Ala.
where he married, aud where his widow
has many friends and relatives.

INTO MISCHIEF.

Dancing feet and busy fingers,
Never still the whole day through,
For the little brain from dreamland
Brings them work enough to do,
Rseing through the gorgeous parlor,
Romping on the winding stair,
Tearing books and breaking vases
Into mischief everywhere.
Picks the cake and tastes the jelly,
Breaks the window, slams the door,
Throws the statues from their brackets
Scatters playthings on the floor,
Tearing little coats and trowsers,
Rumpling up his curly hair
Busy, naughty little fingers,
Into mischief everywhere.
Spilling ink upon the carpet
Dashing pictures from the wall;
Breaking mirrors, singing. shouting,
In the attic and the hall;
Tracking mud across the entries,
Turning over desk and chair,
Cutting up the morning paper
Into mischief everywhere
But no look of hate or malice
Darkens DER those laughing eyes;
Not a thought Of harm or SHINING
IN his little bosom lies.
For his soul is pure and guiltless,
whater harm the fingers do
Though the little feet are strsying
Into mischief all day through.

other BondhOlders are leaders, and
which includes nearly all the great
