TILT WITH CLAUSEN.
Another squabble Over the Mill
ion-Dollar Appropriation.

Contract Work.
Paving Of Ono of the Transverse
Roads Delayed.

There was another tilt at the meeting
Of the Park Board to-day over the ques-
ton of spending the balance of the
mllion-dolla appropriation. President
Clausen and Commissioner Bell were
the parties to the argument.
The subject came up when the paving
Of the Transverse road through Cen
trail Park at Nincty-seventh street was
discussed. The point was: Should the
work be done by days work or by con-
tract.
President Clausen said the Board of

the estimate for paving Fifth avenue,
from Ninetieth to One Hundred and
Tenth street, based on days work, be-
cause It was too high. He asked the
matter.

Justice Grady Sends an Ambu-

But tho Magistrate Is Tired Of
Hearing That Excuse.

Justice Grady, who sat in the Tombs
Police Court this morning. adopted the
unusual method of sending an ambu-
lance to the home of a man who was
wanted on the charge of grand larceny.
This was after a long wrangle with the
lawyer for the accused, and his instruc-
lions to the sergeant OF the court squad
were to have the man on hand by 2
o'clock, whether sick or well.
The alleged offender is John Heinrich,
jr.. ex-Secretary of the Star Building
and Loan Association. who Is accused of
appropriating some of the Associations
money to his own use.
Heinrich was arrested on warrant
obtained by Christian Peterson, Presi-
dent OF the Association, on June % last.
The specific charge was that he had re-
ceived So6 from one OF the members and
failed to turn II. over.
Heinrich was arrested at his home, 101

certificate from DIR. c. J. Mussrove, OF

accused had sprained his leg and was
confined to his bed. The case has been
adjourned four times since then. On
each occasion a fresh certificate was
produced showing that the mans leg
was encased in plaster of Paris.
The case was UP again this morning,
and Lawyer Philips produced another
certificate similar to the others. He
asked an adjournment: Justice Grady

Before the Sergeant departed Lawyer
Philips pleaded that as his client was

rather, he will to-day"

fused.
After further negotiations, 1t is aid,

done by the same process that is used by
engravers who make changes in the plate
from which your visiting cards are print
ed.
MAKING MAPss
The process Of engraving and printing
maps is much less expensive. Map
makers seldom use copper plates Very
often they print their maps on cylinder
presses from stereOtypes. The engraving
for the past fifteen years has been done
with the aid of wax. This process was
invented by a Buffalo man, and it has
revOlutionized the map business. Maps
were never so cheap as they are today,
and the gazetteer which. twenty five years
ago, cost a small fortune, can now be had
for a song. Map making is now done IN
a room whose temperature is never
allowed to fall below go THIS temper
allure is hard on the engraver and work
ers on map engravings do not stick
to the business long The heat Of the
room keeps the beeSwax in a condition
which makes it susceptible to easy en-
craving. A coat of this wax mixed with
some hardening ingredient is poured on a
metal plate. The wax sheet may be as
thin as tissue paper or 1t may be an
eighth of an inch thick. Pen and ink
drawings of the work are given to the
operators and they make their own
sketches in the wax with a sharp steel
tool. For the dotted lines of different
styles which are used to mark county or
township lines, or to indicate real or pro-
posed railroad routes, little wheels like
those which women use in transferring
dress patterns are employed. Whenever
names are to be filed in the
impression is made in the wax
with type, one letter at a time.
When the engraving is completed the plate
is taken to cooling room, where the
wax hardens. A coating of black lead is
then rubbed over the plate and it is sus-
pended in an electro plating bath. The
copper in solution is deposited on the
black lead and form the original. This
thin copper plate is backed with type
metal, and IRONS this plate stereotypes
are made. Frequently from twenty to
forty plates are used in printing one or
der of maps; and when the map is small,
sometimes a dozen impressions of it are
printed on one sheet. But large or small,
the maps are printed by the fast presses
in enormous quantities, There is a map
concern in Chicago which has record
of 624,000,00 maps printed in twelve
years-a million maps a week. This
would have been impossible under the
old process of printing from stone, copper
or steel

AVERAGE FIVE sur1.r.rSes uAx.

When dinner time comes they all leave

porridge. dip in their long. wooden
spoons, and enjoy the meal only as the
tolers Of the earth can enjoy a plain

OF the men shear 100 in a day: sixty aud
seventy they reckon good shearing
and some cannot manage two
score. Anyhow, the boer usually
finds that for the two and a half
days work an average of about five shil-
llngs a kat1ir will more than cover all ex-
penses. The boer is no great hand at
reckoning out the kafir's earnings. IF l

seven to-day and thirty tomorrow and
twelve the next day-how much must l
give him ~ That proposition would puz-
zle the boer, but he will take care that
the kattir does not get more than shil-
lngs, and perhaps trifie less. Anyhow,
when the kaffirs get their money they are
well pleased, and, singing as they go,
wend their way TO the next homestead.
