THE EVOLUTION OF A METAL.

Persons who have occasion nowadays to
visit household furnishing store will be
attracted by the light and handy kitchen
utensils made of aluminium. OF all the
metals it best meets the requirements of
such utensils in respect of lightness, handi-
ness, polish and durability, and, while it is
not yet the cheapest, it bids fair to be-
come much cheaper. The history of it's
manufacture and the rapidity with which
1t has reached it's present stage of develop
ment are typical of the Industrial move
ments of our times. Twelve or fourteen
years ago there was placed on exhibition
in the window of a jewelry store in Wash
ington the aluminium cap which was to
crown the apex of the Washington monu-
ment 1t was less than foot square at the
base and perhaps fifteen inches high, and
was said to be the largest solid piece or
aluminium produced UP to that time. 1t
weighed only few pounds, and cost a con-
siderable sum. In 1886 aluminium was
quoted in New York at 81 an ounce, nearly
twice the present price of silver. Up to 1888
1t was never lower than IS a pound. For
some years past the price has been as low
as so cents pound, and lately it has been
reduced to about SO cents a pound. This
steady reduction in the price of the metal is
due to improved methods of producing it. A
few years ago the process of obtaining it,
even in small quantities, was very ex-
pensive. Now the electric reduction works
at Niagara Falls have capacity of produc-
ing five tons every twenty-four hours. The
cost of producing it is so inconsiderable that
the manufacturing company use aluminium
conductors from the large current of cleo
tricity which they carry from the falls
power house to their reducing works. Alum
inium is not nearly as good a conductor as
copper. but it is so much lighter that
Npound of goes much further than a pound
of copper. With the steady reduction in
price it has come into general use. 1t is
particularly useful for certain parts of BIZ
cycles which require a combination of light
ness and strength and it has many other
Uses. It's manufacture is getting to be con-
siderable of an industry. In 1896 the total
output in the United States was about $50
tons, while that of 1897 is expected to reach
1000 tons. 1t has a great future before it,
A discovery of the latter part OF the nine
teenth century, it will be an important fac
tor in the twentieth 1t will probably be
found very useful in ship building and take
the place of iron joists and pillars in the
upper stories of buildings where lightness IS
required. If a successful air ship is ever
evolved. aluminium will enter largely into

In speaking of brief theatrical tour to
be made by Madame Modjeska this season,
Miss Glider, of the New York Critic, says:
"She will probably not come East at all
and certainly not appear in New York,
which is most deeply to be deplored, for
there is nothing that intelligent New York
ers would enjoy more than a round of
plays with this great artist in the leading
roles. Intelligent play-goers are, l regret
to say, in the minority in this city and it is
for that reason that Nine Modjeska will not
honor us with a visit. She finds greater
appreciation in other cities" This is a re-
markable and unexpected acknowledgment
from a New Yorker. That city has long
assumed lofty superiority of judgment in
theatrical matters ana undertakes to regu-
late the opinions of the country in such
matters. 1t happens frequently that a play
is first produced in another city and has a
presented in the metropolis. No matter
what its success, however, the New York
critics affect to regard its presentation
there as a beginning and ignore the opin-
ION of the provinces" meaning all the
rest of the country, including Boston, De-
troit, Chicago, st. Louis and San Fran
cisco. If they decide to approve the play
IL is done with the air of having made an
original discovery. In spite of their SEEM
ing disregard of other opinion, there is Oft
en- room for suspicion that they are less
Indifferent than they seem and are dis
posed to show resentfulness by expressing
opposite views without regard to the ac-
tual quality of the performance The treat
ment of Madame Modjeska is a case in
point All the rest of the country consid-
cred her acting admirable and f1ocked to
see her, consequently New York was offish
and rever gave her proper recognition.
Naturally, any actor or actress would, for
financial reasons, if no other, like to score
a success in the largest city of the country,
where long runs are the rule, but success
can be achieved outside, and Madame Mod
jeska when she realized the situation, wise
ly resolved to waste no further energy
there She only blamed the toploftical
critics, however, for the lack of general
recognition there; to have laid it upon the
ater-goers would have been presumptuous;
therefore to hear the direct assertion from
a New Yorker, one, too, who is competent
to speak, that intelligent playgoers are in a
minority in that city, is rather startling.
Perhaps. after all, the playgoers are to
blame, but do they not take their cue from
the gentlemen called dramatic critics, who
write of the theaters with bored air and
sign their names to their articles in big
type, thereby giving the impression to I'M
sophisticated readers that their opinions are
important?
