Assaying, Weighing, Stamping, Concav-
ing and MilIing-Where the Silver
Comes From.
[M. Quad, in Detroit Free Press.l
If you go into the mint at New Or
leans, as you certainly will ii you visit
the city, you will find q guard in the
rotunda to receive visitors. The james
brothers might have penetrated that
far easy enough, but tley could not
have gone further. The barred gates
rising up between the visitor and Uncle
Sanls store of silver dollars have q
States prison look, and cne is put on
his good behavior at once.
When your credentials are pro.
nounced all right and the gates un-
locked to you, you are ushered into the
receiving and weighing room. Silver
bullion IS corded up on all sides, and is
being handled with as much contempt
as the brick-carrier loads his hod. A
bar of bullion looks exactly like o bar
Of plumbers solder, and when You gre
about to pick mp and walk off with one
of the bars you suddenly change your
mind.
In this room are the most perfect pair
of large scalesin America They weigh
up to 10000 ounces Troy weight, and
are so delicate that crumb weighing
the 5OOth part of an ounce will drop the
bar. All the silver received is weighed
upon these scales, and they are looked
upon by the general visitor as one of
the sights of the institution.
AL the bullion first goes to the melting
department and is melted, alloyed and
run into ingots Of standard tineness,
which means 800 parts of silver and 100
parts of copper. The copper is put IN
to harden it, and without this alloy
there would be great loss by natural
wear and tear. There is a new assay
after melting, and the assay must prove
that the composition is exact and corr
rect. The loss of even the 30Uth
part of an ounce between the
weighing and the melting rooms must
be accounted for.
After the assay the ingots are turned
over to the coiner, who rolls them into
strips by means of powerful machinery.
these strips are about three feet long,
and q little wider than dollar. The
thickness Is designed to be the same as
Ia dollar, but is sometimes too thick or
| too thin. The strips are then passed
to the puncher, who feeds them
under his punch as fast as you can
count, and tile smooth, greasy blank

cover il the blanks are Of the STANDARD

grain short, it is cast out to beremeltetl
Ii it is one grain over weight file is
used to secure exact weight.
In the adjusting room are about two
dozen women, each with O delicate pair
OF scales before her, and the blanks are
handled with surprising dexterity.
Those found of standard weight are
sent6n their way through the mint, and
the light ones will form parts of new
ingots.
You think of silver dollar as per-
fectly-fat surface. Hold one to your
eye and you will see that 1t is concave.
IT the letters and ornaments were even
with the rim of the dollar they would
soon wear off, The concave is to pro-
tect them. From the adiusting-room
blanks go to the machine 20 be con-
cayed and then to the bath. The sill
yer is greasy and blackoned, and the
bath is to remove this and restore the
luster. After being treated 10 On acid
bath, the trays filled with blanks are
placed in red-hot oven and subse-
quently placed in revolving cylinder
with saw-dust. When they emerge
from this they shine like stars.
Here are the smooth, round pieces,
and to make dollars of them they are
sent to the stamp presses. These
powerful machines feed themselves at
the rate of 2S5 per minute, and if you
pick up one of the coins you will find
one side complete and the other side
still blank. They are picked up and
fed to second machine, and now your
dollar is complete except on the edges.
A smooth-edged coin would wear away
faster than one with milled edge, and
hence the larger denominations are
nlilled. It is no use to try to guess
how it is done, for forty-nlne out of
fifty persons would miss it. They are
dropped into q cavity in q powerful
machine arranged to fit them, and the
coins lying fat upon one side, are
squeezed the same as if q tube shut up
on all sides Of your finger at once.
This mills the edges. The pressure on
each dollar In Stamping and punching
is about eighty tons.
Uncle Sam contracts for his silver
bullion the same as private individual
does for his vegetables lie agrees to
take all the ore furnished by two large
Colorado mines, and any supply which
an indiv dual may wish to dispose of
finds ready sale. The mines ship by
express at their own expense, but in
sending away money the Government
paws all charges.

A Rich Man Dies Of Starvation.

$50 Jones is Dead" said one Somer-
vile man to another. "Yes, poor fell
low," was the reply; "he's gone.
"What did he die Off" inquired the
first speaker. Starvation" was tie
answer. Starvation! Good gracious,
the man was worth $50, ,0O0." "I know
that; nevertheless, he died of starra-
ton. I'll tell you how it was: Jones
was always fancying that there was
something the matter with him; so lie
went to doctor one day and had him.
self examined, and the doctor informed
him that he had kidney disease, and be-
side taking medicine must diet himself.
Said the doctor: You must avoid all
kinds of salt meats, salt fish, potatoes,
cabbage and vegetables of every kind.
Jones followed the advice, but found
himself no better. He went to another
doctor, and after being examined was In
formed that he must avoid all kinds of
fresh meats also. This did not do him
any good, IS he thought, and he went
to another doctor, who highly approved
of the advice which had previously been
given, and further warned him against
all kinds of pastry, likew Sc shellfsh,
including oysters and CLAIMS. The
best thing for you is milk diet, said
this doctor; so Jones lived wholly
upon milk. Not feeling himself any
better, ho went to another doctor, who
cautioned him to avoid milk, above all
things, if he wanted to get well. This
reduced Jones to diet Of cold w..ter
and fresh air, and finding himself nj
better upon this regimen, he went to
another doctor, who urged him to be-
ware of drinking too much water and
being too much in the air. This lat
advice cut off the last of Jones' articles
of diet, and he died of staryat on, as [

AN OLD TEXAS TOWN.
The Solid, Unsightly and Ancient City
of GAINESVILLE.
Pleasant Chat About It's Good People
and Quaint Houses.

Special Correspondence of the Gazette
GAINESVILLE, February 2.-Thisis an old
town and looks it. Forty years back it
was village; thirty years ago improve
ments, vast for the time, were made,
and the ancient court house now stand
ing IN the public square shows that
when it was erected no ideas of useless
ornamentation prevailed with its build
ers. 1t is solid; very solid and I'M
slightly. But GAINESVILLE of to-day, or
rather Red River county has decided
that nothing short of "A forty thousand
dollar court house will eXpound the
taste and requirements of Dame Justice
of this generation. The well-known
Donoho house is contemporaneous
with its neighbor of the square. Great
sprawling building that it is, every
where bespeaking the days gone by;
old-fashioned doors with old-fashioned
knobs; quaint old fire-places where
many yule-log has crumbled to ashes,
as many which have here warmed
have crumbled to dust. Everything
about this house has a mute APP
peal for the past. But the
genial proprietor--long associated
with the venerable pile-he is far from
being ancient; good-natured and ac-
commodating; successful in LIES az
fairs. he seems to take life easy.
Along one side of the square at
Clarksville Is a row of eight stores
which make their surroundings pain
fully plain by contrast. Newly built,
fresh with paint and filled with good
stocks of every variety, they tell OF the
growing spirit of Improvement and
What is possible. mo, there's not
murch public spirit in Clarksville,"
said a prominent county official
and you may guess as much when you
learn that town forty years old, ana
containing about two thousand inhab-
itants, Is not incOrporated. They have
had more than one charter, but for
cause some time ago surrendered their
last one and this good little business
center is merely part of precinct;
precinct where, unfortunately, the col
ored vote is little in excess of the
white. The county collects tax or
only twenty-five cents ON the
hundred dollars heavy burden,
but as elsewhere, there is little dispo-
sition toward increasing the weight.
This country has made rich men OF
some of its Inhabitants, but the more
noteworthy have gone to Paris or JET
ferson and elsewhere, and there re-
main few called rich.
A better farming region North
Texas has not, and desire TO improve
town matters Is apparent, though SLOW
of development. Twelve Thousand
