The Belmont mill is engaged in making
steel nails from the plate scraps. 1t was
one OF the arguments used against the
steel nail when their manufacture was
first commenced, that the scrap ends Of
the plates could not be used and would
therefore be wasted. AT the Belmont,
however, they have succeeded in melting
aud again rolling these scraps and the
nails made are very fair looking, and
those experimental with have been found
to be very tough. The heads did not fly
off and they could be driven into the
hardest kind OF wood.

THE NAfLEas, SPLIT
From the AmaisnmatIon-Tho Scale Con,
yention. -

sention.
There was meeting Of nailers held in
the hall Of the Amalgamated Association
in McLain's block last evening. 1t was
well attended and the session lasted from
1880 until 1880 o'clock. Thosewh were
present when Intercepted were very reti.
cent, but It is safe to say that the topic Of
discussion was the proposed split in the
Amalgamated Association, and that the
sentiment Of those present was largely in
favor OF separation.
The nailers said the meeting was only a
preliminary one, to arrange for the recep'
ton OF delegates to the district meeting in
this city next Saturday, at which dele
gates viii be chosen to thescale conven-
lion al Pittsburgh.

From London Life,


This might have found a place in Dean
Ramsey's "reminiscences. A canny Low
land farmer, of a mIserly disposition,
went to fair TO hire farm servant, and
peering about him, he observed a tall,
well-grOwn lad. with vacant expression
OF countenance. HIM he accOsted, and
found that "JOck," as he called himself,
was an nocenJ"-half-witted. The
farmer, thinking that this was good op-
portunity for picking up strong fellows
who would take low wages and not quar-
rel with the very plain fare OF his kitchen.
questioned him and finding that he was
used to farm work, engaged him. Then,
remembering that he knew nothing Of the
youths character, he added: "But |
maun hae your character, We ken, Jock.
engage no man without a character.
