GOLD AND SILVER PLATING.
A Process That Is Described as Simple by
q Professional.


The following is very simple method
for gold and silver plating: Take an
ounce of nitrate of silver, which is
made as follows: One ounce of fine sill
yer, one ounce nitric acid, one-half
ounce water. Put the silver into Flor
enco flask, then pour i'll the acid and
water. Place tho flask on the sand bath
for few moments, taking caro- not to
apply too much heat, and rs soon as
chemical action becomes violent remove
the flask to q cooler place and allow the
action to go OH until it nearly Stacks,
when, if. there is any silver still remain
ing, the f1ask may DO placed on the bath
again until the silver disappears. If the
acid employed is weak, it may be neces-
sary to add u little more The red fumes
formed vixen chemical action is going
OH disappear when the acid has done its
work.
Tho nitrate of silver formed during
the above operation should be poured
into porcelain capsule and heated un-
til n pellicle appears OH tho surface,
when it may be set aside to crystallize
The uncrystallizcd liquor should be
poured from the crystals into another
vessel and heat applied until it has
evaporated sufficiently to crystalline
Then you have nitrate of silver. Take
an ounce of nitrate of silver, dissolve III
quart of distilled rainwater. When
thoroughly dissolved, throw in II few
crystals of hyposulphitc of soda, which
will at first form a brown precipitatc,
but which becomes rcdissolved if enough
hyposulphite has been added There
must be present IL slight excess of this
salt. The solution is now complete
Take sponge, dip it i'll the solution
and rub it over tho work to be plated
solution of gold may be made III
the same way and applied as described
A concentrated solution Of either gold
or silver may be used for work that has

Ono Of the Lost Tribes.

Scattered over the breezy downs Of the
Nilgherries, in little village of wicker
houses that looks at little distance like
nothing in the world SO much as a col.
ony Of beehives, live community Of
900 or 700 people. who are variously be.
lieved to be the descendants Of one of
the lost tribes Of Israel, the aborigines Ct
southern India, and community Of
Manichasens.
They believe in strange trinity and
hell, q dismal stream full Of leecheq,
and this they must cross by means OF Q
single thread The soul burdened with
sin is too heavy for this slender support,
and the sinner falls into the stream, but
the thread sustains easily the souls Of
the good.
The funeral of Toda, for that is the
name Of the singular tribe, Ia as odd in
its way as its religious belief. His body
is wrapped in a new cloth and his toes
tied together with red thread. Grain,
sugar, tobacco and money are concealed
in his funeral toga to provide him for
his Journey across the Styx and the dark
plain beyond.
Two buffaloes are slain beside the
corpse, and the dead mans hands are
placed upon their horns A piece of his
skull, his hair and his finger nails are
removed to be used later ON ut the great
celebration Of the death Of all those who
during the 10 months have taken the
leap over the great preoipice into the bot
tomless abyss" When these tokens are
removed, clarified butter is smeared on
the fragrant wood Of the funeral pyre.
and the body is burned to ashes and the
ashes scattered to the four winds.

respondent sends the following:
LAHAINA, Feb. 8, 1897.
EDITOR BULLETIN: - Deputy
Sheriff Sheldon with Deputy
Sheriff King of Makawao return
ed from Lanai Monday evening
with % tins of opium and in all
Al empty tins This is the re-
suit of trip they made for the
above purpose. Found on the
beach. Same old lot as before,
washed ashore.
Marshal Brown was seen this
morning concerning the above
but had received no official com
munlcatiop from Deputy Sheriff
Sheldon. He had been previous
ly informed by letter that the two
officers above named had left
Lahaina in a whaleboat for
the purpose of watching the
suspicious actions of a schooner
which had been seen lowering
about Lanai, and whose presence
in these waters is supposed to be
due to the appearance in Honolu
la of man well known to be in
the business of smuggling opium.
He had not as yet received any re.
port from the officers of their trip,
but supposed that the opium found
was an entirely different lot to that
which they expected to find.
