A boat, on reaching the dock, takes
her place directly opposite the pockets
from which her cargo is to be taken,
and the spouts of such pockets as are
to be opened are dropped into the
hatchways, these being so constructed
as to fit the docks, or, more properly
speaking, the docks being built with
pockets to fit the boats, twelve feet
from centre to centre. The hoisting
apparatus is made of steel, and is
provided with CONFERENCE.-The to assist
in lowering and raising. Several ap.
pliances are in use for this purpose,
but the same general principle is fol-
lowed in every case--a small cone
wheel on the same shaft with the main
gearing-the only difference being in
location of the counter weights and
their construction. Some few of the
older docks are not provided with the
CONFERENCE.-The, the spouts being
raised and lowered by common gear
ing and main strength. Everything be-
ing ready, one of the laborers descends
from the top of the dock to the plat.
forms on level with the door of the
pocket and removes the pins, when the
ore is released and tranferred to the
vessel. This method is sometimes
varied by loading the boats directly
from the cars through the pockets.
The trimming" of the ore in the hold
of the vessel is usually done by hand,
but careful manipulation reduces this
labor to minimum.
A manifest is provided, and the ore
then begins another stage of its
journey, through the great lakes to
some Lake Erie port, there to be re-
loaded into cars for its trip to the fur
mace, Engineering Magazine.

Organize the Children.

Rev. Alexander p. Doyle says with refer
ence to the annual convention OF the Cath
Ollie Total Abstinence Union, OF America.
held recently In Scranton, Penn:
The convention did more real work for
temperance than any previous one ever
did, because 1t determined to make special
Efforts to gather children into the organic
alton. thus establishing their future and
the future Of the movement. This work
will be accomplished by the formation OF
Juvenile societies. All the bishops Of the
country now pledge the girls and boys at
confirmation to abstain from Intoxicating
liquors until they are twenty-one years old.
When the bishop leaves the parish after
confirmation the responsibility rests with
the parish to see that these boys and girls
are organized into into total abstinence so
cietios, and the sentiment is encouraged
and strengthened in them. This work will
be begun Immediately throughout the
country, and the practical result will be
that by Christmas thousands of children
who have taken the total abstinence pledge
will have been enrolled in a great Juvenile
temperance army
