THE MISSING FIREMEN.

Fruitless Search for Bodies in the
 Ruins of the Boston Fire.
 BosroN, Dec. 2.-The pleasant weather yesterday had the effect of drawing very large crowd of spectators to the ruins of the Bedford street fire.
 The removal of dangerous walls is being carried on under the direction of the inspec- tors of buildings. It will be several days before Bedford street can be rsopsned to public travel.
 A large detail of firemen was employed all day in overhauling the ruins at points where the bodies of the dead frsmsn are thought to be, but SO far no trace of tho missing men has been discovered.
 The Herald has started fund for the re- lief of the families of the four fremen whose bodies have not yet been taken from the ruins. It heads the list with 8 subscription of $500.
 Mayer Hart will probably send commu- nication to the board of aldermen to-day asking that immediate steps be taken to lessen the danger of fires from electric wires.

MAKING PINS.
Wonderful Processes in the Manufac.
ture of These Little Articles.

The manufacture of pin was tedi-
Gus process when entirely made by hand.
No less than twelve on fourteen processes
had it to pass through before it was COM
pleted. The wonderful machinery now
in use has much simplified matters.
First of all, the wire must be prepared
1t is placed in a coil ON a revolving
block, and drawn through holes pierced
in steel plate until it Is of the size re-
quired for the particular pin to be made.
It is then taken to the pin-making room,
where we find rows of machines moved
by steam power, and producing a con-
slant stream of pins at the rate Of $50 to
300 per minute, which are removed from
the receptacles into which they fall by
the workman and his attendants, who
look after the proper working of the ma
chimes.
If we stand in front of machine we
see a coil of brass wire ON a revolving
drum. The end of the wire passes
through a hole and then between iron
pegs, which straighten the wire and keep
It in its place as it is drawn into the ma
chine. In the machine we see pair of
sliding pincers take hold of the wire,
carry it forward short distance, and
put the end through hole in the small
iron plate. Watch carefully, and we see
a pretty little hammer strike the end as
soon as it appears en- the other side of
the iron plate. BY successive blows of
this hammer the head is made. This
done, down falls a sharp blade and cuts
the wire into the length required for the
pin (the machine can be adjusted to cut
the pins at any length desired). This
process of drawing in, heading and cut
ting off, goes on continuously, and the
pins are thus carried on to the pointing
part Of the machine
The pointless pin now falls into
slanting groove, just wide enough for it,
but too narrow to let the head through.
Thus we see a row of pins hanging by
their heads nearly the whole length of
the machine. Beneath is a revolving
cylindrical file The surface Of the cyl
inder represents a series of graduated
files, on which, as they are worked back
wards and forwards, the pins are point

A JAPANESE GHOST.
1t Can Only be Laid by Repeating
Lengthy Incarnation.

The household superstitions Of Japan
are very numerous. Every nation has
them; they are many or rare, according
to the degree OF intelligence possessed
by the people.
They are harmless, often exciting
laughter, yet so intrenched in the house
hold are they that religion, argument,
even ridicule, cannot destroy them.
Some Of these superstitions have a
moral or educational purpose, inculcat-
ing lessons of benevolence, neatness,
habits of cleanliness, says writer in
the Philadelphia Press. A room is never
swept Immediately after the departure
of the inmate for fear Of sweeping out
the luck.
At marriage ceremony neither the
bride nor the groom wears any clothing
of purple color, lest their marriage be
soon dissolved, purple being a color
most likely to fade.
If the cup of medicine is upset by ac-
cident during the illness Of person it
is sure sign Of hisrecovery. This looks
as if the japanese had faith in our prov
erb, "Throw physic to the dogs"
There are some curious ideas in re-
gard to the finger nails. They must not
be cut before starting ON journey, lest
disgrace fall upon the person at his des-
tination. Neither should they be cut at
night, lest cats claws should grow out.
Children who throw the parings Of the
nails into the fire are in danger of some
great calamity. Ii piece should fly in
to the fire while cutting the person will
soon die.
The bowling Of dog portends death.
If a woman steps over an egg shell she
viii go mad; if over razor it viii be-
come dull; if over q milestone 1t will
break.
If man should set his hair on fire he
will go mad. Children are told if they
tell lie an oni (imp) viii pull out their
tongues. The wholesome terror of the
oni, standing ready to run away with his
tongue, has caused many a japanese
youth to speak the truth.
Ghosts are very popular and are not
limited to apparitions of human beings.
The she-badger and the fox love to re-
turn to their former haunts.
Foxes play practical jokes of every
description. They follow their victims,
who are usually men; while the badger
follows young girls in the guise of
handsome youth.
Ghosts are raised in various ways.
The most popular is to put in the andon
(the lantern burned at night in every
sleeping-room) hundred rush
lights, repeating an incarnation of 100
lines. At the end of each line one of
the rush lights is removed until only one
The ghost-seer takes this one
into the dark and blows it out, when the
ghost should appear
The japanese have horror of the
darkness; they always keep q light
burning to ward off the ghosts.
The junkmen believe in ghost who
comes to them and politely asks to bor-
row dipper. The answer decides the
fate of the junkman. If dipper with
D bottom is bestowed upon the ghost he
uses it to bail water enough to swamp
the junk, but if the bottom can be
knocked ont and thrown at him he dis
appears. In this last case the act must |
be accompanied by an incarnation, or
tine ghost turns into sea Kappa
monster-who will drag
the Junk to the bottom.

ed. They fall into receptacle below
but as yet they are yellow-the color of
brass wire; they are also greasy. They
are now pat into barrels, which are
turned round and round, and by this
means thoroughly scowered and cleaned,
and are ready to be +" silvered." They
are nov put into kettles heated by
steam, and spread about as evenly as
possible A powder of fine tin is then
spread over them, and a certain portion
of acid added. In this they are boiled
for about four hours. When taken out
they are found to be covered with thin
coating of tin, which gives them the
bright and silvery appearance which all
pins possess.
The pins are then dried by being
thrown into sawdust, and polished by
being put into barrels reyolved by ma
chinery. Thence they are placed into
fiat tray, and the workmen, by pecu-
liar tossing motion, which requires much
skill, separates all the dust from the
pins, which are now clean, bright and
ready Tor use. There is very ingeni-
Gus machine used for " sticking" the
pins which are to be sent to the market
on papers. The paper is placed on
piece of curved metal and crimped and
placed into position to receive the pins,
which are passed out Of receptacle at
the top of the machinery by a girl, who
with brush dexterously sweeps them
into grooves placed in an incline plane,
leading down to tho paper. Thus ar
ranged, they pass down the machine in
long lines, and by lever the paper is
brought under the points of row Of
pins and by beautiful bit of machinery
they are pressed through the crimped
edges of the paper. Thus row by row
the whole sheet is filed.

A Perfect Pendulum.

What appears to be an almost perfect
pendulum in respect to simplicity, is in
operation at the University of Glasgow.
According to this plan small shot of
about l. Is of an inch in diameter is sus-
pended by single silk fibre (half 8
cocoon fibre) two feet long in a glass
tube of three-fourths inch internal
diameter, exhausting the latter to about
tenth of a millionth of an atmos-
phere. Starting with a vibrational
range of one-fourth inch on each side of
its middle portion, the vibrations can be
easily counted after lapse of as many
as fourteen hours, a fact not realized
