GOLD by THE YARD.
How the Gliding Used In Ornamental
Decoration IL Prepared.

From Pearson's Weekly
The beating Of che innumerRble little
square pieces Of Gid which are used
10 cover domes and signs and 80 forth
forms a distinct Industry in the gold
trade. which employs a large number
OF hands and requires no small amount
OF skill.
The long. low building in which the
work IL carried on Is filled throughout
the day with the sound OF hammers.
on every side little boxes containing
tiny rolls Of gold are TO be seen. which
although only measuring an inch and
half In length. are worth each about
flo. The gold Is received In bars one
eighth OF an inch In thickness an inch
in width. and and weighing 24O penny
weights. This Is rolled into a ribbon
thirty yards In length.
II is then given 10 the workmen in
strips measuring seven yards. each Of
which is cut up into i2O pieces These
are now ready 20 be beaten out by
hand They are placed protected by fine
slSlns) in a tool known as the clutch.
and are thoroughly pounded out on a
great granite block set in the ground
In such way that there is absolutely
no vibratory movement. The process
Is repeated several times. the gold as Il
spreads being continually subdivided
until II Is OF the exact dimensions re-
quired
The skins in which the gold is beaten
are 80 delicate that they will tear as
easily as paper; nevertheless they will
withstand the continual hammering for
several years. The gold. which is final
ly beaten down to 2OO,OOths OF an inch,
is rubbed with brine" before being
placed In the skins. in order that It
shall not adhere TO them.
Easy as this work OF beating out the
gold may seem, It is in reality an art
OF very delicate description. The
workman must know to nicety exact
ly how hard or gentle the blows of his
hammer must be. and also the exact
spot on which they should fall Ac-
cordingly. a very superior class OF men
are employed in the business.

ANTONlo's THANKSGIVING.

Fireworks Display Given on the Green
Last Evening by Antonio Muro in
Celebration of His Recovery From a
Serious Illness-Twenty Thousand
People Present-A Good Pyrotechnic
Display.
A crowd OF fully twenty thousand
people assembled on the green last eve
ming to witness the pyrotechnic display
given by Antonio Muro, an Italian bar
Der of 1856 Grand avenue, to celebrate
his recovery from a dangerous Illness.
Muro was taken i'll with pneumonia
last spring and his case was considered
hopeless by his physician. He, how
ever, prayed devoutly, vowing in case
of his recovery to celebrate his escape
from the clutches of the Avenger in a
fitting manner He finally began to get
better, and during his convalescence
has been preparing a grand thanksgiv-
ms, and last evening saw the culmina-
ton of his arrangements.
The celebration was begun Saturday
evening, When a special high mass was
celebrated at the Italian Catholic
church on Wooster street. The church
was deliberately decorated for the oc-
casion, and across Wooster street for
half a block each side of the church
arches of colored lights, arranged in
fancy design, ssparlSled Saturday and
Sunday evenings.
The fireworks on the green last eve
ming We're very good and We're much
appreciated by the vast crowd which
had gathered to be entertained by a
son of Italy, an event rare in New Ha-
ven's annals. The crowd was about
double the size of that at the Bryan
rally. Nicolaris band was present and
played during the fireworks display.
At the conclusion of the entertain
ment the big crowd applauded gener-
ously.
