ployed with fine judgment and rele-
vancy, as in the lantern for the Denver
bank, and the skill with which every
detail is brought out under his unerring
hammer shows his mastery of the re-
sources of his metal. Fortunately his
work has received its need of apprecia-
ton, for it ornaments many buildings in
Chicago, and has travelled from here to
the East and to the West.
With the fOrge-room for climax, the
investigation into one branch of the
''artS and crafts" came to an end, and
the writer returned to the main office
with an increased admiration for the in
ventive talent of the American pro-
American working man. Some curiosi-
ties of the business were reserved for
exhibition i'll the private office, cotton
lace covered with deposit of iron, and
rails of wood coated with bronze, and
therefore rendered lighter than the solid
metal. The bending of cold iron was
also illustrated, and complicated knots
were shown which had been tied in the
metal without the help Of heat. There
were designs. too, for the elaborate
doors of the Leland Stanford university
museum, in California. These are
now III process of construction and
are to be covered with eight
bronze panels each, illustrating in re-
lief the most celebrated buildings of the
world. But the most carefully organ
lied business is fortunately not exempt
from an occasional touch of humor, and

mans, was busy with the smelling of
iron, as, after many ups and downs in
the industry, she is busy with it to-day.
Even its manufacture for architectural
decoration attained great perfection at
several periods of the worlds history,
and it may be that Homer's description
of the forging of the shield of Achilles
indicates that the smiths of his time
were more skillful than their modern
followers.
During the middle ages beautiful de-
signs. were wrought in iron in Europe,
and many fine examples of the work are
StillseXtant. In Westminster abbey an
iron screen, wrought in 1894, protects
the tomb of Eleanor of CASTLE, consort
of Edward l., and this ancient grille is
remarkable for the beauty and consist
ent dignity of the design. If the arti-
ficer who used his strength and skill in
thus commemorative the English queen
could be put down in the Chicago of to-
day, how mitch would he find to COM
mend i'll our use of the stubborn metal?
He would shudder at some things,
doubtless, and stand in dumb surprise
before others, but here and there among
the great buildings even so true an
artist could find work worthy of his
highest commentator.
A reporter for the Chicago Herald,
from which this is taken, visited the
large foundry of that city from which

this mold require exact and thorough
ton.
But even after casting the work is far
from complete, for all decorative iron
work is now treated with the Bower
Barff process for the prevention of rust.
In accordance with this valuable dis
cOvery, the iron is heated 10 about 1,500
deg, when chemical combination takes
place, forming coating of magnetic OK
ide of iron, blue-black rust over the
surface. Nothing but the same degree
of heat can lnjure the rich color which
results from this simple process.
1t would be pleasant to linger over
many parts of the establishment which
can only be mentioned; to describe the
workers who fill the lowest floor of all
with noise. the polishers with their clev-
eriy contrived machines. the filters
with their busy hammers, aud
in contrast to this lively tur-
mol, the silent wielders of the graphic
brush, whose blackened faces linger ID
ones memory. Even the electro bronx
1 ing mustb be neglected in spite of the
beautiful results obtained from this
method of treating iron, process which
effects transformation in the appear

/ twenty-five hours. There is also a sys-
TEN of duplex plating besides very

issues most of the fine ornamental iron
work, used not only in the large build
ings of that city, but of st. Paul and
Minneapolis as well. Over four hun
dred men are employed in preparing
the iron for the market, and very few
of them are subjected to the discOm-
forts of excessive heat and bad air. The
experiment of building foundry III two
stories has here been successfully tried.
A large skyllght assists the windows to
give adequate light and air, and, where
as the workmen sweltered in the old
foundry, the rooms now in use are
pleasantly cool.
But the casting for which these rooms
are employed is not the first process in
the labyrinth, and to avoid confusion it
is best to begin with the designing
