At Halifax, N. s., signal gun is fired
from the citadel each day at noon and at
$50 p. m. The Neurological Review ex
plains that cable has been laid from q
clockmaker's establishment to the citadel,
and is connected with n clock which auto-
matically fires the gun. The dial of the
astronomical clock has two small recep
tacles containing mercury. One of these is
so placed that the reverse end of the record
hand will touch the mercury when the in
dex emil points to the sixtieth second.
When the minute hand touches the one
receptacle and the second hand touches the
other the circuit is completed, and the big
gun at the citadel is discharged by an cleo
trio current passing through the clock.

The Latest Wrinkle in weIdIuu,

The Iron Trade Review tells Of a new
welding method which refers principally to
lap Yields for joining the ends OF band saws,
plates and bars, and the manufacture OF
water pipes, boiler shells and the like. This
process consists in first forming holes in
one Of the parts to be united SO that, when
the parts are heated and welded by any
convenient means, n portion of the metal
of the other part will be forced into said
holes, strengthening the joint. In modifi-
cations holes are formed in both the parts
to be welded, and in some cases these holes
are made to coincide and pins or rivets are
inserted.

The Cochin China people strike two pieces
Of bamboo together and ignite finder. The
coating of anonymous, silexlike flint on the
surface of the bamboo yields spark at a

Tungaras of British North Borneo and the
Ternate Malays carry attached to the CIR

containing finder and fragment of porce-
lain. The bit of china with finder is held

The method prescribed for cleaning brass
in United States arsenals is to make mix
ture of one part common nitric acid and
ne-half part sulphuric acid in stone jar,
having also ready pail of fresh water and
a box of sawdust. The articles to be treat
ed are dipped into the acid, then thrown
into the water and finally rubbed with
sawdust. This Immediately changes them
into brilliant color If the brass has be-
come greasy it is first dipped into strong
solution of potash and soda in warm water;
this cuts the grease, so that the acid has
full power to act This plan is said to be
the best in the world.
