Wood Bending.

In an account of the wood bending in- dustry writer in The WoodWorker re- marks that comparatively few persons outside the carriage and boat building interests are aware of its extent, and but few realize that the carriages they ride in are very largely made of such wood-the fellies of all their wheels are bent and made in two parts framework of coaches and heavy car riages is nearly all made of bent stock, and not only better made, but more cheaply, and the frames of pleasure boats are bent, as also many of the frames of the finest sailing yachts Fur nlture, too, of many kinds, has bent frames, all the celebrated Thonet chairs, for example, being made entirely of wood thus treated. The object of bend ing is twofold--namely, saving of time and stock and stability and strength of the work when put together-this in- dependent of beauty of form, and bent carriage shafts are almost, if not entire ly, used now, instead of the old style, clumsy, sawed ones. Skill in manipu- lating the material is very essential. Simply the forms to bend on and the steam box in which to soften the wood do not alone insure success in the opera tion-it is necessary to know perfectly the stock to bend, it being so variable that no two pieces bend alike.

Special Policeman jana is in distress.
More than this, he is offended. deeply

complains bitterly OF the inaccuracy OF the
press. Of the injustice OF he press, nay, or
the maiignity of the press.
He alleges that IL was he, A. f. jana,

cut the fire department Thursday night
TO suppress a SIS fire at the entrance to
the Academy of Music. He AYERS that II
was not Special Policeman Young who
turned in this important alarm, as stated
in The Times Of yesterday.
When the alarm was struck, a. reporter
secured what appeared to be a straight
account OF the little fire. But inadvertently
he stated that Special Policeman Young
turned i'll the alarm. 4ari.
When jana read that Young had been
accredited with having turned in that
alarm for that $15Sfire, he waXed wrotb.
"WaXed wroth' is a gentle ard dignified
way of stating what jana did. He yelled
that Young was beplumed in false laurelS,
that he had nothing to do with turning in
that alarm, which brought out the fire
department to quench that $l5 fire. He
wanted to sec the man who wrote that
piece.
Special Policeman jana desires to en-
phaSiZe the fact that 1t was he who turned
in that alarm, and not Special Policeman
Young. The reporter who made this fatal
error has been suspended till the question
is determined as TO who il was that turned
