What Chemist says 81 the E:eci.le-sness
Of English N0Fl-Ineu.
What worri.s the British public quite as
much as the Feuian threats IS the stupidity OF
the wurkneu who hGndle the dynamite about
the mines and quaIGies. The work,ncn there
have not the advantage of an education, and
so when they have lost the brute fear Of the
stuff which al feel when first brought into
contact with il, they become reckless to a
terrifying degree. \ report furnished by
Col MaieuG.a says tnac one man with box
holding fifty pounds Of it got thirsty while
carrying i past public Eouse and, setting
the box on tile door step. went inside and got
drunk. The account Published in local
paper next day Of the rcciing journey OF that
man after he left the public house horriied
the people of three counties. One engineer
tried TO get a frozen cartridge into n hole in u
rock that was so small as 10 make very snug
fit. When half way in the cartridge jammed.
The engineer tried TO drive it home with a
hammer, and thus made an awful example of
himself, for the cartridge exploded and blew
him to fragments.
Another miner went into public house
and drank pot Of ale, leaving a cart con
tanning 800 pounds OF dynamite and 1900
Decorators unattended in the street The
horse was sober and saGatc else the town
might have suffered from a local disturbance
in the air and earth that would have been
noteworthy ia the history Of dynamite in
Great Britain Another miner got into a
thir,l-Cias~ car we'll loaded with people, car
rynE fiIty-pouul box 81 the explosive with
him. To gcssipiHg ugig'ibor sitting 10y him
he iucaut!ou=iy told what was in the box.

Little matters like that have uo object here,
but in England they nuke Il great stir. IN
1851 there were fifty one deaths and eighty
one injuries in England caused by dynamite,
but in $50 there were only thi-ty-ouc deaths
and sCytntv-fIur injuries. one inventor
over there devised a new compound that
could he heated in an oven to several hundred
degrees Fahrenheit without setting it off, but

UNOYlNG LOVE.

When in the golden western summer
skies
A flaming glory starts, and slowly fades
Through crimson tone on tone to deeper
shades,
There falls a silence, while the day
light dies
Lingering-but not with human agonies
That tear the soul, or terror that de-
grades;
A holy peace the failing world pervadeS
Nor any fear of that which onward lies;
For well, ah WELL. the darkened vale re-
calls
A thousand times ten thousand van
ished suns;
Ten thousand sunsets from whose black
ened walls
Retained the white and living day, that
In light which brings all beauty to the
BIRTH
Deathless forever round the ancient
earth.
o thou the Lord and Maker of life and
Full heavy are the burdens that do
weigh
Our spirits earthward, as through twi-
light gray
We journey to the end and rest of
night;
Though well we know to the deep inward
sight
Darkness is but thy shadow, and the
day
Where thou art never dies but sends
its ray
Through the wide universe with rest
less might.
o Lord of Light, steep thou our souls in
thee!
That when the daylight trembles into
shade,
And falls the silence Of mortality,
And all Is dor.e-we shall not be afraid;
But pass from light to light; from what
doth seem
Into the very heart and heaven of our
dream.

Machine for Forging Iron.

A newly invented machine for forging iron
or steel III any form in which the metal can
be turned involves a new method of working
iron. Instead of being hammered or rolled
to the desired form, the mass OF red-hot metal
is placed on n groove in two plates, which are
moved in different directions. The grooves
are in primitive form at the places where the
iron first enters between the plates, and along
its course these grooves move closely in con-
formity to the shape which is given to the
finished piece, and it is thus twisted into the
desired form.-New York Mail and Express.

Il gold, silver or nickel plate anything from
a lady's pin to brass watch" said plating
mechanic TO a reporter. Gold plating is
cheap nowadays, as compared with former
years. What are the principal articles plated.
Watches, rings and other articles of jewelry.
viii put a gold plate on watch, guaranteed
for year, for $3.50, and not so good plate
for 81. Rings cost p, - and 80 cents each to
plate with gold. IL you will step this way /
win show how plating is done"
The reporters informant led the way to
rear room containing n dozen electric bat
teries, to which were attached thin steel
wires On bench were small cups contain
ing liquid gold, silver and nickel. The gold
used is twenty-four karats fine. To illustrate
the process the operator took a silver ring,
and, after washing it in preparation, twined
one OF the wires attached to the batteries
around it. The electricity was then turned
on and the ring dipped in the liquid gold.
Instantly the ring assumed bright red color,
and this was succeeded by golden hue. In
less than two minutes the ring was taken ont
with sufficient gold plate to last a year, or
at least so said the operator. Spoons, knives
and forks and in fact everything imaginable,
are plated in the manner described. There is
big money in the business, as but little gold is
used in the plating process.
II can so heavily plate watch that acid
won't touch it, said the platter. Bogus or
heavily gold plated watches are frequently
palmed Off by INSCRIPTIONS jewellers on Gus
toners. Confidence men often find plated
watch means Of earning a dollar when
times are dull. Two months ago l plated a
silver watch, probably originally worth $40,
for n customer, and charged him s. for the
job. y week or - ago he called on me and
said that he had pawned that identical watch
in n Brooklyn pawn-hop for SO No doubt

Suicides in the German Army.

Suicides are rapidly increasing in the Ger
man army. a loyal German journal explains
the fact by saying that German soldiers be-
come so filled with patriotism for the Father
land that the emotion drives them crazy, and
that while III that condition they Kill them
selves. The explanation is ingenious, but de
cidedly too attenuated to go very far. The
fact is, the soldiers commit suicide because
they are forced to remain in the army.-New
