HOW WIRE is MADE.
It's Manufacture a Very Interesting nr'l
UNIQUE Mechanical Process.

rts Manufacture a Very Interesting ari
Unique Mechanical Process.
Tho rod is received by the wire draw
er in the form of a coil, the rod being
of varying section and the coil OF q
weight depending upon the purpose fer
which it is intended. Ono end OF tho
rod is pointed and somewhat
by machinery. The coil is then given a
bath in mild acid to remove all oxlda-
ton. afterward washed in limewater
to give a drawing surface and is finally
dried in q proper oven. When ready Tor
drawing, the pointed rod is inserted iii
one OF the holes of a drawing plate. Il
plate is generally of steel, but some fac
tories use cast iron. The drawing holes
are c%onical, and the rod is inserted from
the larger end. On the other side of the
plate the pointed end is seized by pow
er pinchers and pulled until enough has
been drawn through to allow of its be-
ing passed around and fastened to q
drum or reel which is driven by power.
OF course the rod is reduced in area and
much elongated, and this without amy
p%erceptible loss of metal. While passing
through the plate it is kept fabricated
with what is called wire drawers soap
or grease. After being drawn through
this first hole it is put through a series
of smaller e until it has been brought
down to the requisite size. But the COM
preston and disturbance of the structure
of the rod consequent upon these reduc-
tions have hardened it SO much that at
certain stages it is necessary to stop the
process and soften the metal by anneal-
ing. After this it is again washed in
acid, ETC., and the drawing is resumed.
Iron and the harder grades OF. steel re-
quire five or six annealings while being
reduced to the finer gauges of wire. But
the manufacture of soft steel and the
details of rolling it into rods have been
so perfected that soft steel rods a now
be drawn into fence wire without any
cleaning or annealing. After the final
drawing the wire is finished in various
ways. depending upon the purposes for
which it is intended.
No matter of what metal the wire
may be composed, the same general sys-
tenn of drawing is used, varying moro
or less according to the metal. Includ-
ing gold, silver, platinum. copper. ETC..
the commercial sizes Of wire run from
one-fourth inch to one-seven hundredth
inch in diameter. -Cassier's Magazine.

tho colonies now are dear luxuries for

But there is another reason for the
absorption, In the coming great war
Belgium and holland will be the apple

Once he had an odd case among his
private patients, and he invited u stu

tient was a woman. Before entering the
room the doctor carefully explained the
disease to the student and told him that
he had sent the woman some medicine
the night before which he was confident
would help her. He explained the COM
position Of the medicine, told what par
ticular combination of drugs would ben

sickroom.

This evidence is reported to
have been given by Detective Wag-
ner in his testimony at the trial of
some men whom he had arrested on
a charge Of fast driving;
My instructions are that ii anyone
makes a break to avoid arrest | would
shoot him dead; yes, shoot 10 kill, no
matter what the otfense is; the charge
, would he sifted afterward; held re-
volvei IL '3y right l2le when defendant

would have shot to kill, no matter what
if defendant and companions had made
a break to get away; do not manuiac-

If it is Detective Wagner's idea
of his duty or of his instructions,
that he is to kill a man who drives
rapidly in the street and tries to
escape arrest for it, the sooner the
Attorney-Generals department de-
taches him from the police force
the more likely it will be to avoid
the moral responsibility Of a honi-
eide. Detective Wagner and his
pistol are very much out of place III

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2l, 1894.
A NEW DEPARTURE MooTED.

1t would be a curious turn III
affairs if the natives, having given
ND the idea of a restored monarchy, .
should combine in an appeal to the
United States for annexation with
Statehood and suffrage. According
to many Royalists that is what they
are likely to do as means OF OBJ
tanning, through complete home
rule, the overthrow Of the Reform
regime. They figure that the abo-
riginal vote, acting under the Ameri-
can ballot system, could sweep all
before it and restore the good old
times Of addition, division and sill
ence, minus only the participation
of the crown. The prospect is un-
doubtedly pleasing to many Of the
late Queens adherents, who care
less for her than they do for the
feeding Of the ancient grudge they
bear the missionaries.
While this scheme has elements
of shrewdness, it lacks one i'm
portant and necessary factor-the
power to negotiate with Mr.. Cleve-
land and the Senate. That power
does not reside III parties OF
factions, but in the established ano
recognized Government of the Isl.
ands, which is not likely to become
the agent of demand that is aimee
at the gains and fruits Of the roya
overthrow. The late Monarchist:
might petition America until the
crack of doom, but unless they hac
the cooperation Of the Foreign
Office they would merely have thell
labor for their pains. That helT
they could only gain by acqui'
escence in the doctrine that the
men who have most at stake II
this country, and those who beai
arms in its defense, shall have the
most to say about its management
and that annexation must be had
if at all, on basis that will maxi
Hawaii as tree from aboriginal
rule as Dakota, Arizona o
California is, and as much in tn
control of civilized political infu
ences as is Virginia, North Caro-

The kind of annexation thes
Islands want is that which vii
make them another District c
Columbia, or at best territor.
with protective qualifications 70
electors. Annexation Of the State
hood sort, with aborigines holding
the reins of Government would b
opposed by the Reform party an
the Administration as a thing il
volving as much danger to tn
property and business interests as
monarchy itself.
The upshot of the whole matte
is that the Royalists are silnpl
wasting time in trying to restor
themselves to power under an.
pretext or by any negotiation o
