and are exceedingly comfortable There are two
galleries, the first to have the same sea.ings

as desirable, especial attention having been paid
to the line of sight and ventilation.
The proscenium arch opening is formed on
the line of a three-circis head, thirty.two feet
high and thirty-four feet wide. The arch Open

leaf columns framing in a running scroll design
in relief ornament. Above the arch is a large
panel formed by the continuation OF the laurel

Lubricants,

An improvement in the preparation
of lubricants is described by Krause,
a German chemist. The soap formed
by treating wool grease with alkaline
lye Is dissolved in water and filtered,
and to this q solution of alum or other
alumina salt is added, theresult being
the formation OF a brown precipitate,
and this is called aIuminum-lanolate.
With this substance, when dried, lu-
bricating oils of any degree of viscosity
desired may be produced by dissolv-
ing it in a small quantity Of mineral
oil, a gelatinous substance is obtained
which may with considerable advant-
age be mixed, in suitable proportions,
with indiarubber or guttapercha.
Solvents for indiarubber are said to
be also solvents for aiuminum-lano-
late. In textile industries this SUBJ
stance may be used as a securing agent.

Iron Paper.

In the international exhibition of
1891 a specimen of iron paper was
shown. This led to some competition
between iron masters as to the thin
ness to which cold iron could be
rolled. One maker produced a sheet
of paper SO thin that 1900 layers OF
it piled upon one another measured
only one inch in thickness. The fine
ness OF the iron foil referred to may
BIZ understood when it is remembered
that 1000 sheets of the thinnest It's
sue paper arranged in the same man.
ner measure a fraction more than one
inch in thickness. The iron paper
was perfectly smooth and easy to
write upon; but when held up to the
light it was porous. There seems to
be no practical use to which iron
paper could be put, for, owing to it's
liability to rust. it is inferior to com
mercial paper.

A New Alloy.

a" G-4Eg 80 aHI..&E.E&& 81 =s ~
An Austrian inventor has lately
prepared a new alloy, which is stated
to be OF great utility in connecting
metals with glass for electrical and
other purposes, Theoretically sealing
glass tubes, etc. The alloy consists
substantially Of n~inety-fve parts by
weight Of tin and five parts OF copper;
but other ingredients may be en-
ployed as well. Thus, if this alloy be
combined with from O.5 to l per cent
OF either lead or zinc, it may be rem
dered softer or harder, or more or
less easily fusible, as required. The
alloy is prepared by pouring the
molten copper into the. molten tin,
each being taken in proper proper
ton. The molten metals are then
we'll mixed together with q wooden
sthrer and the alloy which results is
esther cast or granulated. The use
fulness OF this new alloy consists in it's
property of adhering very strongly to
clean glass surfaces. 1t melts at $50
degrees, and possess the same co.efi-
cient of expansion as glass, so that
parts that are cemented with it are
not ruptured on heating, owing to un-
equal expansion. The alloy may also
be Used for coating metal and wires,
as it gives a fine silvery sheen to their
surfaces.
