CURRENT MISCELLANY.

Removing old paint from metal sur
faces i'll structural steel and iron work,
such as bridges and tho like, previous
to repainting, involves an expenditure
OF time aud money quite beyond the
Ideas of the uniformed. Whether the
sand blast, says Kuhlow's German
Trade Review, which is so efficient in
cleaning castings, would perform salts
factorily i'll this direction is therefore n
question of considerable economic in
terest. Whatever experiment. has thus
far been made has shown that when the
paint is reasonably new and the oil is
III slightly elastic state it is exceed
ingly difficult to remove it by sand
blast, though later, when the oil has
become more oxidized from longer ex-
posture to the air, it yields more readily
to the attack of the process. Paint there
fore which is old enough to warrant its
removal and replacing by fresh coat
would probably give way before the
sand grains in al encouraging manner.
An instance in point is where the sand
blast was used to clean between decks
of cattle steamer, which was in all
exceedingly bad condition, with many
coats of old paint on the iron work
Now. tho results were highly satisfac-
tory as to the quality of the work done,
but tho time consumed was excessive.
The air pressure used was, however, on
~ about ten pounds per square inch,
making it reasonable to suppose, there
fore, that if from 40 to so pounds pres
sure had been used the results might
have been satisfactory in point of quality
and economy of work.

A Wonderful Pump.

A pump built for the stamp mills of
the Calumet and Hecla company is con-
sidered one Of the most marvellous
pieces of mechanism ever put together.
Without crowding in tho least and with
as much apparent case as one would
work an ordinary cistern pump this
great engine delivers 2,500, 600 gallons
OF water in "a consecutive hours and
does this continuously. 1t is almost
noiseless, so perfect is the adjustment
Indeed persons standing just outside of
the building can scarcely hear its beat
ing Standing inside by tho great pit
from which the water is drawn, almost
the only sound is the thrush of the wa
ter as the pump lifts more than 1000
gallons at every stroke. This immense
piece of machinery is engaged in supply
ing water to the works, where 5000
tons per day of conglomerato rock are
pulverlzed into sand fine enough to be
swept away by the rush of water. The
nicely of adjustment may bo imagined
from the fact that the current of water
lifts and sweeps away the sand, but does
not disturb the copper that settles at the
bottom OF the pans. New York Ledger
a Huysvrouw of New Amsterdam.
The huysvrouw was usually not only
careful and diligent i'll the business of
caring and providing for her frequently
very large household, including depend
ents. She was also i'll general both a
God revering and merry soul, attend
ing to all her Christian duties as then
understood and also fond of the pleas
ures as well as the comforts of life. One
reason for building the chimney stack
in the centers of the Codwise and Evert-
son houses is said to have been to pro.
vide for dancing aroundthe chimney.
In New Amsterdam, says tradition, the
families of the better class met at one
another's house almost every weekday
evening, save during the hottest wealth
er. for purposes of amusement. Hearty.
healthy and happy people they seem to
have been. doing as much good and as
little i'll as may he i'll an imperfect
