MILKMEN IN COUNCIL.
A Delegation Heard on the Ordinance
for Milk Inspector.


A delegation of milkmen had hearing
before the Law Committee of the City
Council Wednesday in relation to the milk
inspector ordinance. Samuel j. Ridgway
was the first speaker. He thought the
licensing of milkmen was a good thing
but that the license fee should be more
than 50. He said that he believed that it
was all right not to compel persons, who do
not sell over 20 quarts a day, to pay
license. Mr.. Ridgway spoke about colored
milk, saying that the coloring was pro-
duced by the same article that butter was
colored with, and it is perfectly harmless.
George A. Laws spoke about on the
same lines as Mr.. Ridgway. He said that
nearly all the adulteratfon of milk was
done before 1t left the farm. He would
like to see law passed that would prevent
the sale of cream. If this was done the
dealers would sell their stock solid, with
out being skinned. The dealers stated
they had no objections to the ordinance,
but would like TO have the license fee in.

WEST POINTS HISTORIC CHAIN.
Once 1t Weighed IsO Tons and Was 1900
Feet Long.

No visitor to West Point fails TO notice
the few links of the iron chain that lie
around the monument up near the hotel
They are the remains Of the great chain
which was stretched across the Hudson
river during the Revolution TO prevent
British warships from sailing past the
forts and landing an army or marauding
parties. Few people know that just above
the entrance to Tuxedo park, on the east
side of the railroad track are the ruins OF
the building in which that chain was
made. They are known as the old Augusta
forge. The western gable and the south
wall are all that are standing. 1t was
never ANYTHING but low stone building,
few feeu square, and built by country
mason. 1t was called forge because there
iron was reduced from the ore by the old
fashioned charcoal method, and its coun-
terparts were common all over the country
within the last half century. 1t was owned
by the Sterling Iron Mine company, one
of the large iron manufacturers of the day
Here was reduced the iron taken from
the mine, four miles west, and the links
were hammered out by hand.
When it became apparent to the conti-
mental war department that chain was
necessary to prevent vessels going above
the neutral ground, Secretary Pickering
consulted Mr.. Townsend, one of the iron
kings of the day and an owner of the mine,
and shortly after General Putnam gave an
order for the chain. In less than six weeks
the links were delivered to the army engi-
neer at New Winsor just west of New
burg ready to put together. The carting
was done by the neighboring farmers with
their OK teams The links were feet long
and ga inches square, each weighing
about $50 pounds. When put together, the
chain had swivel at every hundred feet
1t was about /, 800 feet long and weighed
1S0 tons. 1t was buoyed up by 16 foot
logs, pointed at each end, SO as to offer as
little resistance to the tides as possible. 1t
was put in place in l77S The part which
is preserved was fished up from the bottom
of the river i'll 1855, but the greater part
was sold for old iron to the West Point
foundry, years before. York Press.
