"The off horse has lost a shoe from
the right fore foot, " said the coachman,
as he drew up opposite a wayside black
smith shop. "ShaIl I stop and have it
replaced:"
"By all means, " replied the owner
of the curricle, Senator Aaron Burr of
New York, sit is always the proper
thing to keep your horses we'll shod,
and, besides, / am only too glad of a
chance to stretch my legs after so long
a drive. While the smith is busy l will
stroll to the top of one of these beauti-
full Ulster county hills"
When be returned half an hour later,
he happened to glance at the side Of
barn near the shop and saw with sur
prise an accurate though hurriedly
drawn charcoal picture of his curricle
and horses.
"Who drew that?'' he inquired.
"That little frouzy head yonder,"
replied the blacksmith, pointing TO a
boy in homespun who was chopping

UNLOADING COAL.
Two Ways of DischarCing Coal From Ca
nalbOats Into Carts.

Two Ways of DischarGing Coal From Ca
naIboats Into Carts.
Scoops like those that are used in
taking up mud from under water, in
deepening slips, that shut together in
the mud, biting out great mOuthful of
it to be lifted up and dropped into
scow, are also used in unloading coal
in taking coal out Of boats The ordinary
way of unloading coal from boats into
carts on the wharf alongside is with
big scoops holding a quarter of a ton
each, which are hung on pivots so that
when they are cast loose they can easily
be upset and emptied. These scoops are
filled in the boat by men who tip the
scoop on its side toward the coal and
scrape the coal down into it until it is
almost full and then right it up and
finish filling it with shOvels The scoop
is hooked on to rope and hOisted up
by horse or steam power to the driver
waiting with his cart on the wharf,
who empties the scoop into his cart.
Meanwhile the men below are filling
another scoop. The shovelers who do
t1llS WOAh GhlA SOOu NdSCSs buI l4lCg
must be men of strength and endurance,
and they may have to work long hours.
The steam scoop is used in only the
smaller sizes Of coal, but the work that
it does is done much cheaper than it
could be done by hand shoveling. The
scoop is dropped open upon the coal in
the hold of a canalbOat and then closed
by power operated by the engineer who
runs it. The separated lower edges Of
the two parts of the scoop are drawn to-
gether down through the coal until they
meet, thus holding the coal inclOsed.
The scoop is then hoisted up and
swung in by power, not over the cart,
but over an elevated pocket or bin
which has spout on each side so that
two carts can load at once. When it
has been Swung in, the scoop is opened,
TO discharge its contents into the pocket,
and then it is swung out again and once
more dropped open upon the coal III the
boat belOw-New York Sun.
