How Coin IL Made.

For every bar which is in the vaults
of the mint at Philadelphia there is a
record on the books of the superin-
tendent. That record shows the
weight and tineness of the bar. Many
of the bars on storage were bought in
1890, when the Sherman law went ill.,
to effect. They have remained UNI
touched from the time when the
stamp of the assayer was put on them.
Now they Will be taken out and
melted with copper to form an alloy,
says Il correspondent of the Houston
Post
The exact proportion of silver to
copper should be nine to one, but in
melting little less than the measure
Of copper is used, so that by adding
copper later in small quantities the
alloy can he made rs nearly as posi-
BILE of the exact standard. 1t is easier
to work the alloy down by adding
copper than it is to work it up by adj
ding silver.
The copper and the bar silver are
put in the crucible together. The
crucible for melting silver is of hand
wrought iron. These pots cost &45
each. Each of them will hold about
LOO ounces at Il time. Each pot is
good for $50 melts. 1t will cost the
mint $4,000 for cruciblcs to mels the
s2,000.000 ounces of silver.
Gold is melted in black lead pot,
which costs about one-tcnth as much
rs the iron pot, but the black lead
pot is good for only about thirteen
melts.
No silver passes through the iron
crucible. A little is absorbed by it
and this is recovered when the cruel
BILE is melted after it has seen the last
OF it's usefulness. Nothing that could
yield any Of the waste silver is allowed
to get away from the mint without
chemical treatment to extract the
precious metal. The melting pots,
the Stag, the ashes from the furnaces,
and even the outside pickings from
the black Innings Of the furnaces are
grounl and sifted to obtain me-
tallic grains, and the grains are re-
fined.
The residues from the sleeves is put
into sweep machine, which extracts
the smaller PARTICLES. And the very
minute PARTICLES of metal pass in the
water of the sweep machine to settling
watts and wells. These wells are
cleaned out at very long intervals and
they always yield Il little gold and sil.

"No, 1t is neither" replied the mother;
"my boy would never desert his old
mother and precious Mary like a coward.
Something dreadful must have happened
TO him."
81 hope he will turn up all right for
your sakes," said the captain, "but am
positive he is not in the city"
This conversation had been carried on in
an undertone, so little Mary did not real
ize its dreadful import, and she danced
merriy out of the Office TO cheer up
grandma, who, with sinking heart and
fsltering steps, followed her out OF doors
''Let US go home by the path across the
field, grandma" said the child; 81 am sure
papa is all right and he may be waiting at
home for US now-and he'll be Gwfully
disappointed"
And away they went hand in hand, the
old mother trying to hide the tears which
would come to the surface and the child
trying TO comfort her, as children will.
AT last they reached the old field just
as dusk was coming on and the holiday
stiffness seemed douoly impressive as
they glanced ACROSS that waste OF snow.
They had gone two-thirds Of the wey
across, the little girl going ahead to make
a path for grandma, when she suddenly
stopped, crying out. "What was that
grandma? am sure heard the bird call
that papa and have for q signal; listenI"
Z" Nonsense child" said tho old lady.
Then "Whistle again, papa!" rang out
the childish voice.
Across the marsh came the plaintiye
whistle, soft and low, and glad tidings
were waited on that chill Decsmber breeze.
Little Mary started on a run for the
old storehouse.
"lm coming, papa; come along, grand
ma" cried she, almost breathlessly, and
she sped away to her fathers rescue.
The old grandmother, still half dazed,
totterod along behind the little fairy,
hardly able to understand 1t all.
"Come around TO the other side,r cried
Tom, who was within the old shanty,
bound hand and foot to pile of logs in
one corner. He instructed Mary TO run
to the station as quickly as possible and
have the captain send posse of men TO
captut the burglars. He had learned,
while they thought him still unconscious,
that they intended TO return rs soon as II

captain was rs excited as she, and he not

The burglars returned and were cap
tured, OF course. "Reddy, the Kid" got
40 years imprisonment, aud the others
Jared proportionatoly as they deserved.
That Christmas night there was a happy
gathering in Tom Hart's chamber, for our
