IRON BAR 1000 YEARS OLD
A Portion nf 1t Is Owned by the Iron
Chancellor.

A Portion m 1t Is Owned by the Iron
Chancellor.
S. T. Wellman, the metallurgist Of
Cleveland, has q portion of round bar
of iron-and few like pieces are held
in the United States-that antedates
the Christian era by two or three CEN
turtles. The iron, which had been orig
inally hammered into plates and was
deeply rusted from age, was found few
years ago by DR.. Karl Human in the
ruins Of the temple Of Artemis Leuco-
phryne, at Magnesia, Asia Minor. DR..
Human sent 1t to Hallbauer, in Ger
many, and the latter made from por-
tion Of it memorial tablet. This was
presented to Bismarck in April, 1894.
It bore this inscription in German !:
"For you, Prince Bismarck, the Iron
Chancellor, Hermogenes forged this iron
at Magnesia 200 B. G. Human found
it in the temple of Artemis after 2, 900
years and sent it to Hallbauer, who gave
it the form in which it shall bear wit
ness that your deeds shall outlive mil
lenia."
At the time of the presentation to
Bismarck Stahl und Eisen gave photo
graphic reproduction of the plate and
an account of the discovery of the iron.
The temple of Artemis, one of the most
magnificent Of ancient monuments, was
rebuilt about 800 b. c., though by some
the date is put at 200 b. @.
The metal is described as approximate
ing steel in it's composition, though
closely akin to malleable iron. 1t was
made at low temperature, and great
care was necessary in the forging. 1t
was found rather difficult to roll the
pieces that were preserved as relics,
these having diameter Of about one.

had the other girls papers going like
