The manner i'm which slate il mined

only q few people In this country,
principal sources being in upper New
England and eastern Pennsylvania III
is not taken out of shafts, but 1t is d
ried ont Of big holes in the earth. Some
time ago.. when the writer was at Ban
gor, Pa, he was invited to 90 down
into one of these quarries, about 200
feet deep and overland ON q rope, but
he declined the invitation, as / think
most inexperienced persons would do.
The slate is blasted ont in huge blocks
and is hoisted out by steam and turned
oven to the men who know how to re-
duce it TO the proper size. Huge blocks
of it are taken in hand by these work
men, who cut a notch into one end of
each piece. Then they take q chisel and
a mallet, and they are no skillful in d.
recting their blows that they can split
the blocks of slate in almost any way
they please. II you watch the slab ON
which n of them is working, you will
see a little hair line running through it,
and presently the block will fall apart
on either side of this mark. The work
men will make this line go straight
through the middle, or to either corner
Just as he likes. / do not know just how
he does ii, but he invariably accom-
plishes what he sets out to do.
The smaller pieces thus produced are
taken i'm hand by another set Of men,
who split them up into sheets Of the
proper thickness for roofing slate. This
they do with q long bladed instrument
about the shape of q putty knife, but
many times larger, and If you saw
them do it you would marvel how they
got the sheets only one inch thick and
split 1t SO times. The usual number of
divisions is 16. These sheets are taken
and cut into squares by machinery.
Wherever there are slate quarries you
will find a great many Welshmen, for
the best skaters come from Wales. Boys
follow the trade of their fathers, and
there are whole families and settlements
who know no other means of earning q
living. New York Advertiser.
