1t Was Successfully Cast at Touhills
Shop Saturday.
A brass casting weighing over two
tons and costing in tho neighborhood
Of $500 was successfully cast at the
works of J. A. Touhill on North Main
street Saturday afternoon without
hitch. The work of preparing the
mold consumed nearly six weeks and
required much skill in its construction.
When the hour arrived to pour the
working barrel, as it is called, large
number of spectators had gathered at
the works to witness the interesting
sight. When the last drop of the hot
metal was emptied into the mold and
its success assured much satisfaction
was expressed by Master Mechanic
Haston, of the Newton Coal company,
who was present.
The casting is for the Newton Coal
Mining company, and is to be used in
conjunction with one of the pumps to
eject the water from their mines. It's
construction of brass was found neces.
sary owing to the ravages of the sui
phur water and its acidulous prin-
oiples. Experience by this company
has demonstrated that where similar
casting of iron twice the thickness
lasted from a month to ten weeks at
the furthest, one of brass resisted the
same pressure from two to three years.
The casting above referred to makes
