'EO Miners yEho sh.sS-pez, Their
 Gsyyn Drills

esyYn Bri}:s
 Miners all over California are oB: liged by their situation to do their own sharpening, and while there are many who are good shafpeners and temperers, there are many more Who are not. Probably very few under- stand the philospliy of Workihg steel, and many will be glad to obtain some aid in the #ay of information as to how 1t should be done. The Iron frade Review gives a few directions which ale worth preserving. It says.
 To work steel never heat above a light cherry red for hammeringj tlIen hammer light and quick until nearly black, as this improves the steel and will make tools that will do more than double the work than if not so treated. The hardness of steel is govcrned entirely by the heat when it is dipped in water; for instance, piece of steel dipped at Bright cherry and drawn to straw will be !ery much harder than piece heated to dark cherry red and then dipped and drawn to straw. Try it.
 The forging, hardening and temper- ing of steel is an at that but fe& 'an- derstand, as its knowledge is only gained by experience, and but few ever give its secrets to others; yet in few words I will try to give the principal elements to workers of steel, which, if foiloxedy will save you many losses, and give yod a reputation for working steel that will insure you good and serviccable tools, as well as increase your gains.
 Please remember that the heat at which steel is worked and hardened are two of tie vital elements to pro- duce good and servicta!le tools. If heated above light cherry red some Of the vitality of the steel is destroyed and it would in heating too many timc.; return 10 iron. If heated too Not when hardening, it would fly to pieces, destroying your labol and steel, as well as give you poor re- putation.
 Remember also to hammer your work lightly at low heatj as this inn pFo@es drills ahd edge tools most wonderfully, also take as few heats as possible, as overheating and too frequent reduces the steel to iron by destroying tie carbon.
 To harden drills, always dip them slowly to the dtptA desired iii as near a ycrticle llhe as you can by the eye and hand, then move in a circular position until cold, but never any deeper in the water than first dipped, as this prevents them from cracking which they would be likely to do if held perfectly still and the water formed a line around them. Do not change the water in which you tenn per, but as it wastes fill up the tank. If you are obliged to use fresh water always heat a piece of iron to put in to it and bring to such a warmth as is perteptible to the hand, as steel Is liable to crack when dipped in cold water. When you have heated your article to be tempered take it from the fire and examine t. see if any flaws are observable in tic steel as this will prevent your having poor pieces of steel laid to your carelessness in Aar- dening. In cutting up steel thin, sharp chisel should be used, as blunt one is liable to splinter or crack the bar, which will not be seen until it is temoeredj when the labor is lost with the steel.

A STORY OF MIR. ARTHUR.
How He was Nominated for Vice
President.
From the Chicago Mail.

From the CbtcdJO Mall.
81 see In one of the papers," said one OF
Gen. Arthur's old friends at the Gilsey
House, "a story that ought TO be correct
ed. 1t says that at the National COnven-
ton of 1880 the General demanded the
nomination for the VICE / resIdency as lis
yindication from the party of the course
he took in his fight with Hayes. The facts
are that Arthur had no idea that he was
even thought of for the nomination until
after 1t was all over. After nominating
Garfield the convention took recess for
two hours, and meeting OF Ohio states
men was called. at which eX-GoV. Deni-
son was instructed to wait upon the New
York delegation and tender the nomna-
ton to Levi p. Morton, who, it was
thought, would pour out campaign funds
literally. After consulting with COnk-
ling and others Mr.. Morton declined the
honor, and MIR. ConKling sent word to the
Ohio men that New York had no interest
in the selection. Then the Garfield crowd
called in the Blaine managers to the con-
ference and 1t was unanimously decided
that New York man must go on the
ticket, and the nearer they could get to
Conkling the better. William Il. Chan
dler was the one who suggested Arthur's
name and IL was unanimously approved.
1t was then arranged that couple OF
gentlemen should get Arthur into car
riage and take him for drive, so as to
keep him out of the way till the conven-
ton had adjourned.
"Tnis was not difficult to do, as the
General had lost all interest in the fight,
and even Conkling did no. attend the
afternoon session or he would have with
drawn Arthur's name the moment it was
prODOsed. Congressman ButterwOrth, o I

Spalls Had liiz.
Prom tie Indianapolis journal.


One day North Meridian street man on
his way 70 his Office noticed cOlOred
man loading spals, cuttings from stones,
from in front of neIghbOr's new house.
The colored man told him he had been
hired, gt 25c. a load, to haul them of TO "a
dumping ground. The North Meridian
street man thought he could use couple
of loads Of them, and, going to his rich
neighbor, said IL he would let him have a
couple OF loads he could use them to make
a walk in his back yard, and lac would
paw the cOlered man Tor hauling the two
loads. His neighbor said, "All right"
The loads were hauled and the colored
man was paid SOC. Next day, meeting
his neighbor, the North Meridian street
man thanked his neighbor for the spalls.
The neighbor didn't appear satisfied, and
said:
why, Mr.. -, that doesn't pay me-"
Much surprised the North Meridian
street man said:
''But you have been having them hauled
of and thrown away
$50 | was" said the awfully shrewd
business man. THAT'S one thing; It's an
other thing In your case. They're worth
something because you need them"
SURPRISING mis- rising indignation at
this unneighborly exhibition OF acute
thrift, the North Meridian street man de-
sired to know what the spalls were
worth. BE was told IS, which he prompt
ly paid, and now the two old neighbors
don't speak as they pass by.
