The directors of the Georgia state fair
yesterday adopted resolutions in favor of
the coinage of both gold and silver with
out discrimination, and state banks of
issue. The bank resolution declares that
the general government has no constitu-
tional right to prohibit or prevent the
state from exercising power to allow the
establishment of such banks and the issue
of state bank currency. 1t holds that
such an increase in the volume of cur
rency is necessary for the proper and
convenient transaction of business. The
Georgians are very bold to thus fly in the
face of President Cleveland. They will
doubtless be disciplined for kicking
over the traces of the present close ad-
ministration.-Denver Times.

To a Photograph.

To a Photograph.
Two eyes that laugh through waving golden
hair,
Like rippled pools the sunlt ferns between,
When early summers perfume laden air
Stirs soft as signs from Egypts lolling queen
Two lips that pout in saucy merriment,
AS rosebuds closed that foil the lover bees;
Two rounded cheeks, where color came and
went,
Like light and shade beneath the swayins
trees;
A snowy neck, full throated, fit for song,
And bust that's not of matron nor of maid,
But of that sweet half season-not for long
When womanhood's part that's newly
played.
The whole combination to command
A cynic's admiration, full confessed;
Not even envy's heart could eer withstand
Such pleading sweetness, though in beauty
dressed.
For thea king his kingdom might forswear
Astronomers forget the latest star,
A sage the cap and jingling bells might wear,
But IN blamed II I remember who you are.

The Utilization of old Tin Cans

In the suburbs of great cities an indus
try has sprung up, having for its object
the recovery of the solder used in max
ing and sealing TN cans. In consc-
quence the formerly despised and useless
tin can has acquired sufficient CONNER
cial value to rescue it from the back lot
dumping ground and garbage scow.
'nder the present system of street
cleaning, New ork tity's refuse is
loaded on scows from the docks located
nj convenient intervals along the river
front. and then taken to the sea and
dumped. These docks have double
decks. the upper projecting sufficiently to
allow the contents of a cart to fall on the
middle of the scow, and be distributed
by the trimmers who keep the vessel on
an even keel. The trimmers also select
everything of value with the greatest
care; rags. fat, bone. metal. paper stock
etc, being stored on the lower deck of
the dock. The silver and iewcry form
no small item of the contractors profit.
and the total value of "A Scow load is cs-
I tinated at an average of two hundred
dollars.
he space between the dock platform
is often closed in with odds and ends.
and the ialcrior converted into miscra-
Bile habitation by the trimmers' men and
women, who thus herd together, their
supplies being drawn from the dump.
These dumping docks are the princ-
pal source of supply for the industry we
illustrate, and Il wagon load of the tin
cans can be bought at such places for
four or five dollars.
The furnace is an old soap boiler, into
which few sticks are thrown; the
bowl is then filled with cans, quart of
kerosene poured over them and then ig-
nted.
The heat developed by the oil is not
great enough to attack the tin, but melts
the solder which flows to the bottom
of the bowl. The solder recovered from
II load of tins averages forty pounds.
After this process is completed the tin
scrap is sold to make " hat is called
'acid"
In large open vat containing waste
acid, acid fcrric sulphate, sulphuric or
hydroehloric acid, the scrap is thrown
and allowed to remain until 1.-The tin is
stripped from the IRON underneath; more
scrap and metallic iron is added until the
solution is neutral. The tin thus dis
solved is thus used rs II basis for the

For The Reporer.
The May Queen.
BY NAVEL c. MAXWELL

In a snug sheltered spot in a quiet nook
AT the feet OF the pine trees tall,
Just in reach OF the sound of the babbling
brook
And the noise of.the water fall,
The trailing arbutus, a favorite of mine,
The acknowledged Queen of the May"
Whose clusters of sweetness cling close to
its vine,
Half hides from the light of the day.
\ queen of such beauty is scarce ever seen,
Or one more becomingly dressed;
The colors she chooses are pink, white, and
green,
Her perfumes no fairy e'er guessed,
queen Of such modesty nowhere abides,
Except in this one domain small;
Attendants, and courtiers, and knights she
decides
Weren't meant for her kingdom at all,
a lesson OF meekness she ever has taught
To all who were willing to hear;
Such preccpts as hers at no sophists are
sought,
Nor yet such examples fear
She never pretends to be what she is not,
But looks up to Nature for all,
In spring time she graces the snug shelter
ed spot,
At the feet OF the pine trees tall.
