CASTING PLATE GLASS.

An Operation That Occupies No More Time
Than 1t Takes to Describe 1t.
The casting-tables, the most i'm
portant pieces of apparatus in plate
glass works, are nineteen feet long,
fourteen feet wide and seven inches
thick. Each is provided with an iron
roller, thirty inches in diameter and
fifteen feet long. Strips of iron on
each side OF the table afford bearing
for the rollers and determine the thick
ness OF the plate of glass to be cast.
The rough plate is commonly nine
sixteenths of an inch in thickness;
after polishing, it is reduced to six or
seven-sixteenths. The casting-tables
are mounted on wheels and run on
track that reaches every furnace and
annealing oven in the building. The
table having been wheeled as near as
possible to the melting furnace, the pot
OF molten glass is lifted by means Of q
crane, and its contents quickly poured
on the table. The heavy iron roller is
then passed from end to end, spread
ing the glass into layer OF uni
form thickness. The whole operation
of casting scarcely occupies more time
than 1t takes to describe it. Each
movement is made with almost nerv-
ous rapidity. Few industries offer such
fine scenic display as the pouring OF
molten glass. One feels like crying
Encore! 1t is so very brilliant.
In contact with the cold metal OF the
table, the glass cools rapidly. As soon
as possible. the door Of the annealing
oven is opened. and the plate OF glass
introduced. The floor of the oven is
on the same level as the casting table,
80 that the transfer can be convenient
ly and quickly made. When. after
several days, the glass is taken out Of
the oven, its surface is found to de de-
cidedly rough and uneven. A small
quantity is used In this condition for
sky-lights and other purposes where
strength is required without transpar-
ency. 1t is known in the market as
rough plate. The greater part of the
glass, however, is ground. smoothed
and polished before it leaves the es-
tablishment Prof G., Hanford Hen.

FORD'S HERMIT.

He Lives In q Swamp and Makes None,
as TaxidermIst.
Down in Connecticut, near Bridge
port, on the edge of what is known as
Stratford swamp, living in a little hut,
is peculiar character named Samuel
Greenrod.
Greenrod, although he occasionally
makes trips to neighboring villages,
when he journeys abroad mover walks,
but rides in vehicle of his own manu-
facture, having one cart wheel and one
buggy wheel, the diameter of one be-
ing much less than that OF the other.
The cart is drawn by an OK which
wears a harness made of old ropes,
rusty chains and strips of dingy leath-
er. Greenrod has taught the OK which
draws his chariot to obey the reins,
their ends being attached to the ex-
tremities of the animals horns. and,
although it proceeds slowly, it does so
surely, and answers the owners pur-
pose.
Greenrod's habitation is really
museum Of natural curiosities, show
ing that, though hermit, his time, so
far from being wasted solitarily and in
deep thought, as most hermits' time is
supposed to be passed, has been i'm
proved, and that the generations to
come are likely to derive some benefit
from his partial renunciation OF the
world.
Animals and birds OF hundred vari-
eties, embracing nearly every species
known to Connecticut, occupy por-
tiOns OF the main room. and small ad-
joining room is devoted to the require
ments of q collection Of living snakes,
comprising all the different varieties
found in this part Of New England.
There are adders, rattlesnakes and
others whose bite is deemed venomous
and deadly. Greenrod has no fear of
any~of his pets, and, although they
hiss and squirm when the door OF this
room Is opened, the owner will coolly
enter and pick up with his bare hands
whatever snake he desires to show his
visitors or has customer for.
Notwithstanding his many peculiar
tiles, Greenrod is an intelligent man.
He Is OF English birth, and came to
this country when young. He enlisted
In the United States regular army soon
after landing, and served three years
on tho Western frontier.
The birds handled by him as taxi
dermist compare favorably with some
of the best shown In art Orioles. the
features OF his treatment and posing
resulting In causing every example to
assume life-like position. This has
made an impression favorable to the
operator as an artist. and the scientific
society OF Bridgeport. Conn, are now
negotiating with Greenrod for the pur-
chase Of . collection OF stuffed birds

KING JAMES \.


ms Corpse Wss PubIicly Exhibitcd and
Then Thrown In = Sewer.
Miss Strickland, when making re-
searches ut Paris and st. Germain for
her life Of Mary Of Modena, was told
by the abbess (superior) OF the Austin
nunnery that thu republicans broke
open James lis coffin; that they found
the limbs supple; that she believed
they had some superstitious reverence
for 1t, which, however, did not prevent
their making u show OF it and receiv-
ing a sou or franc from the specta-
tors, and that tor some reason the
corpse escaped destruction. Piecing
together this and other information
(see Miss Jane Strickland's recent life
Of her sister,, the biographer Of En-
glish Queens stated, on the authority
OF "the traditions OF Paris and St. Ger
main," that the Jacobin crowd OF 1898
and 1894 were seized with superstitious
awe; that the municipality took possess
sion OF the hearse and body; that peo-
pie crowding to see it from all parts
OF Paris, from a sou to franc
was charged for admissions; that
miracles were whispered Of; that
Robespierre ordered the body to
be buried; that this was not done, but
that 1t was carefully and reverently
preserved; that on the allies coming to
Paris in 1914 the body was still above
ground; that George Nv. ordered it to
be carried in funeral procession to st.
German, and that it was inferred in
the church. Agnes Strickland, on
afterward seeing Fitzsimmon's account,
cited it as a corroboration; but it is
really just tho reverse, for he con-
cludes by saying: where the body
was thrown / never heard. George
Nv. tried all in his power to get It'd
ings of the body, but could not"
Where could the body have laid from
1894 to 1914. or rather till 1924, for
there was no ceremony whatever in
the former years. when, indeed, St.
,Gegmain's Church was in a rninous
'statep Mrs. Fairbairn, the superior of
the Austin convent, could speak only
from hearsay, as she did not enter the
institution until 1919, and she had
mot improbably been misled by Tongue
vile Jones, whose visit for collecting
epitaphs is still remembered. Miss
Strickland was strangely off her guard
when she accepted hearsay, which it is
so easy to test. She had only to con-
suit the newspapers of 1924, or to read
the st. Germain inscription, to see that
there was no procession of the body
from Paris. Indeed, one can trace the
slender foundation for almost every
detail Of her story. The exposure OF
the body for nearly a whole day grew
into'a prolonged exhibition; the money
given by prisoners at the monastery
for sight OF it grew into payments
made by concourse Of people from all
parts of Paris; the miracle Immediate
ly following on James death grew into
miracle-working in 1894, when belief
in the supernatural was at the lowest
ebh. There is every reason to sup.
pose that the body was flung into some
neighboring pit or sewer. Assuredly
all traces of it had disappeared when
the terror ended. d.--Nineteenth Century.
