Casting a Big Gun in Boston.

They made fourth attempt to cast a
4-ton 12-inch rifle for the Chicago the other
day at the South Boston iron works. The
difficulty with gun casting is the coolngs
and the patent which Krupp has on this is
the basis of his fame. However, the Bos-
ton foundries are courageous They first
make agun-pit Of sand and clay thirty feet
This takes the form of the gun to be cast.
The core, which is to make the bore, Is
carefully fabricated and suspended in the
pit with mathematical nicely. Then at
o'clock of one day the fires are started I'M
der three furnaces filed with steel ingots,
each containing thirty-five tons. In about
twenty hours this is reduced to molten
mass Cutters are provided from each
furnace to the gun mold
At given signal each furnace Is tapped;
the white liquid runs into the gun-pit; the
core stands the shock, and in twenty-five
minutes the pit is full The furnaces are
plugged and the mass of metal (fifty-four
tons In weight), is left to cool This pro-
cess takes four weeks; then, II no disturb
ance Of the core has taken place. the lat
ter IL bored out, the gun is lifted from its
bed and the work Of finishing begins. 1t
takes six months to accomplish this. This
magnificent gun. when complete, will be
thirty feet long and weigh fifty-four tons.
Ii will fire 265 pounds of powder, throw a
projectile 800 pounds In weight, have a
velocity OF projectile of 1860 feet per sec
ond, which would cover three miles of
raIge, and a muzzle energy of $1,000 tons
to the square inch of impact-or the
capacity to send solid shot through
twenty-three inches of iron plating

A Lobbyi.t,s work at the Capitol.

Tho work of an attorney and a lobbyist
before congress is not considered dissimi-
lar by many people here, although there
Is difference. An attorney-if he is
legitimate one and confines himself to
legitimate work-simply presents the le-
gal argument or common argument in his
case to a committee, as he would to u jury.
There his work ends, and there the work
of the lobbyist begins. A lobbyist confines
his operations to individual members. He
seldom II ever talks to more than one at a
time. BY all manner Of arguments and
responsiveness he induces the members of
the committee or the whole house or SEN
ate to support his bill.
The lobbyist does not work as much at
the capitol, when he can be seen, as he
does at the rooms of the statesmen. Many,
however, importune the members or sena-
tors whenever they can. There are num-
Der Of professional lobbyists here, but the
number is not so large as Is generally sup
posed. There are probably not more than
nifty men or women here who make live
lihood by influencing the votes of law
makers. Many more than this number
receive compensation with the understand
ing that they will influence men, but they
claim treachery and all that kind of
ching II the measure naturally fails, and If
1t naturally wins they take the credit to
themselves. Washington Letter.

The Goose and the Ubians.

A goose which has just died at Stuttgart
left the flock while still gosling, and re-
solved to have nothing more to do with its
companion geese, but to try new way Of
life for itself So it boldly marched into
the barracks of uhlan regiment, one day,
and stationed itself next the sentry-box
The uhlans were touched by the goose
choosing to ally itself with their corps, and
built shed for it to live In. For twenty
three years neither threats nor persuasions
were able to separate the bird from its
adopted regiment When the corps
changed quarters the goose went with
them, and when the uhlans went to fight
for their country the desolate creature
took up for time with battalion of In
fantry; but no sooner did the first uhlans
enter the town than the goose marched
out TO meet them, and went with them to
her old quarters. Since her death she has
been stuffed, and is to be seen in glass
case on the gate of the barracks at Stutt-
gart.-Chicago Times

She pidn,t Notloe .he nulleta.

The following story is told by the author
of "Women Of the War" capt. Mitchell's
mother was the most timid woman ever
saw We had to cross pontoon bridge,
and It was thought best that we should
dismount and cross on foot and 1t fell TO
my lot to escort old Mrs Mitchell over. No
sooner had we started than federal bat
terry not far off opened fire upon us. The
soldiers on the opposite side of the river,
pro ected by the high railroad embank
ment, became quite frantic at our danger,
and kept screaming to us TO run, run,
ladies', for Gods sake, run and get over
herep All of this was lost upon old Mrs
Mitchell. She could not hear what they
said for the roar Of the cannonadinR, to
which she had now become accustomed
Neither did she know that we were under
fire. Though the balls were splashing in
the water on each side of us, she did not
notice them, and no one felt called upon
to draw her attention to the fact. She OBJ
jected to running, preferring to walk; 80,
taking her by the hand, we ambled along.
Half way across we passed a soldier on
guard, whereupon she stopped to ask him
If there was any danger there. He was o
stolid-looking fellow, but he fairly gaped
at her; language failed him. Before he
could ma MS tongue hurried her on, ue-
claring that 1t was against order to speak
to the guard For knew that IL she ever
discovered the danger she was in, her
knees would give way under her and /
would have the pleasure of carrying her
the rest of the way.
IA last we reached the other bank, and
were under cover of the railroad embank-
ment Then the officer in charge Of the
pontoon bridge came up to speak to us. He
was an old friend Mrs. Mitchell had not
seen for years. and she greeted him cor
daily; How do you do, Capt. Harris3
am so glad to see you. How is your wifep
She is very well, said the astonished cap
tain, looking first at the old lady and then
involuntarily at shell flying overhead.
And your sisters, how are theyH Very
well, thank you, he said politely, not to
be outdone by GOODNESS. Aud our friends,
the Turners-have you seen them latelyS'
He gazed at her in establishment. The
forest trees around were being riddled by
shot and shell, but she was 80 busy talk
ing about her neighbors she did not notice
them. THE Argonaut.

CHAPTER XI.
THE WOUNDED CALIFORNIAN.

N-AANAA NNN@'A@hA'
A thousand conjectures were in the
mind of Farmer Miles as he drove the
wounded stranger home. 1t was in
tensely dark and he did not dare
hurry.
"Who could have attempted the as
sassination?' he thought "There was
a rumor at Bushville that he was de-
tectiye, or rich man returned from
California. Which can it beP If he is
detective, was he after Walter, and
was it Walter and his gang that
knocked him down? Bah! Why do
do the poor lad the injustice to mix
him up in this affair? 1t was that in
fernal lie Dave Black told me"
After another period of thought he
would come round upon the subject
again, and wish in vain that he could
drive it from his mind.
'Never mind, I'll watch the boy and
see what / can discover in this affair
Do you feel better now, strangerP" he
asked, aloud.
Il am not so stunned and confused,
but am suffering severe pain" was
the answer.
Are you sufficiently recovered to
tell how this happened, and who it was
attacked you, and what for?n asked
the farmer.
81 know but little about it; all |
know is it was an attempted murder
and robbery"
chow many were there of the rob-
bers?n
Three or four, l could not say
which"
Il heard shot, was you hitP"
mo, fired the shot myself"
Ibid you hit any of the rascalsp"
II can not say, for just as fired
some villain struck my arm and
knocked the pistol from my hand"
"Did they take any thing from youP'
II think not. l had but little they
could take, except my life, and I'm
sure it was only your Opporlune ar.
rival that prevented them taking that
Have you any idea who they wera?'
"No. sir, l am an utter stranger
here" answered the wounded man.
They drove along slowly, for the
stranger was suffering intense pain.
When they arrived at farmer Miles
house, they found the woundoC
strangers horses standing meekiy by
the gate with remnant of the shat
tered buggy attached to them. The
farmer went in aud broke the news Il
his wife and daughter, who were still
up in the Sitting-room.

CHAPTER X.
A DARK ADVENTURE.

Mr.. Miles started his team up, and
swept out of the village at good round
trot. He felt somewhat veXed that
any one would suspicion his hired man
of being an outlaw and thief,
The sun was down as he entered the
wooded road that led up Preston Flat.
The horses trOttcd on and the wagon
ratified along the road while the dust
rolled in volumes from the wheels, set
Ting on the trees and bushes at the
edge of the highway,
"Who could have put such a'nohon
in Dawes head?" soiloquized Mr.
Miles. 81 wonder who thinks l would
harbor a thief; and besides it Is an in
suit to Gods handwork to call that
boy thief He is the very picture of
honor, and the man who can look into
those blue eyes and call him thief is
fool and liar. "
1t was evident, however, from the
troubled manner of the farmer, that
his mind was not quite at rest on the
subject. Il might be fooled, and it
might he true that he does belong to a
gang of rascalS, who had taken it into
their heads to rob me. | don't believe
It, but it may be so. No, Walter
Browntield is honest-blast the eyes of
the man who would even so much as
suspicion him."
1t was now quite dark and the horses
were going along at an even walk.
Mr.. Miles was so busilY engaged with
his own vexatious thoughts that he did
not note the flight Of time, the dark
ness or the slow gait Of the horses.
ii will watch him anyway he final
ly concluded. at viii do no harm to
watch tn boy. An honest man don't
care if he is watched, though l know
he's no thief
The wG1on ratified on, the nirht air
Wa cold and frosty. Suddenly loud

shouts were heard on the road ahead
of HIM
"Helloa, what does that mean?" said
Mr. Miles, stopping his team.
Help! murder robbers! murder!
murder!N cried a shrill voice.
"Get up, Bally, Blaze there is trouble
ahead" shouted the farmer, laying the
whip to the horses and starting them
forward at a gallop.
"Bang! went shot from the same
direction whence came the sounds for
help.
"Help, murder, thieves thieves!"
cried the same voice, though evidently
growing weaker each moment. Mr..
Miles could hear other voices, the
snorting and flying of a horse and
heavy sounding blows.
"Knife him, cuss him and stop his
noise, one rough voice was heard to
say.
There was heavy blow, a wild
shrek, and just at that moment the
farmers wagon came around bend
in the road, not forty yards from where
INC SJIuSSle was going OH.
30, yes, here we come, a whole reg
iment of u.s." shouted the undaunted
Mr.. Miles, standing up in the wagon
holding his heavy whip to fell the as
sassin with the butt. He saw strug-
Cling mass through the darkness and
heard few muttered oaths. With a
snort of terror, horse attached to a
buggy run up the road at full speed.
There was also a cracking of brush as
though persons were trying to escape
through the woods.
"Eire on the rascals, boy! Shoot
them down! We've got them at lastn'
shouted the farmer, waving his whip
aloft, as though he was addressing q
thousand men, His horses ran up to
the spot where the struggle had taken
place, and SHE'D to one side of the
road and stopped.
"Helloal what did you seeP" SAID
Mr.. Miles. A deep groan came from
the ground; he looked and discovered
the dark outlines of an object lying on
the ground.
"Some one is hurt" said the brave
farmer, leaping from the wagon
"Say, mister, are you bad hurt?'
No reply came.
81 guess he is" said Mr.. Miles, bend.

Mr.. Miles, in establishment. "He i

This was no easy task, but tn

CHAPTER IX.-CONTINUED
"Great heaven! how do you know
thisp" cried the astounded farmer.
II got it through a suspicious
rumor."
'The rumor is false-not word of
it true. l know that boy must be an
honest, upright young fellow"
"But you are mistaken, friend Miles.
You are warming serpent in your
bosom, that some day viii sting I'll
warn you that he contemplates rob-
bing you and yourentire family"
Il don't believe one word of it,
Dave, and won't till it's proved. I've
lived too long in this world not to be
somethin' of a judge of human nature;
he is honorable and upright"
you may be deceived" began
Black.
