NTEMPERANCE IN HAVANA.

"Hayana is tile one place where the

journalist, at the Metropolitan.
''It is the drinkers paradise, and

that period the regulation amount of

USE OF TIE SAND BLAST.
Removes Every Atom of Rust from
Steel Structures.

Steel Structures.
Engineers have noticed with not lit
tie concern that many recently erected
steel structures have shown unmistak.
able signs of incipient decay, in spite
of the adoption of every known pre-
ventive measure. In this dilemma, the
sand blast has come to the rescue. A
steel viaduct in New York is being
cleaned of the accumulated dust so ia.
tai to steel structures by new process
which, it is claimed, will preserve metal
from further corrosion for many years
This method, known as the sand
blast process, consists in propelling
against the face of the steel a stream
of sand-laden air at high velocity
These grains, impinging with great
force against the rust, break away all
the scale and oxide and render the
metal mechanically and chemically
clean.
The pittlng caused by rust is cleaned,
completely, the entire surface is given
a uniform gray color, with satin frosted
finish, the appearance being that OF
frosted nickel. The metal Is extremely
sensitive after this treatment and alb
serbs moisture and corrosive gas with
avidity. If allowed to stand few
hours the color Is quickly changed to
red, and the process of rusting is again
actively installed. To substitute fol-
this dangerous oxidation preserva'
tive coating of paint Is the process up
on which the successful treatment OF
the metal depends. Following imme
diately after the man who holds the
steel nozzle from which the sand and
air are forced under a 20-pound pres
sure, the painters get to work on the
portion cleaned. The new paint forms

MEASURING THE BABY.

We measured the riotous baby
Against the cottage wall.
lily grew on the threshold,
And the baby was just as tall;
The wee pink fists of the baby
s Were never n moment still,
Snatchine at shine and shadow
That danced on the lattice sill
His eyes were wide and sparkling,
His mouth like a flower unbown,
Two little feet, like funny white mice,
Peeped out from his snowy gown;
And we thought with thrill of rapture
That yet had a touch Of pain,
When June comes round with her roses
We'd measure the boy again.
All. mel In n darkened chamber,
With the sunshine shut away,
Through tears that felt like bitter ram,
We measured the boy to-day
And the little bare feet that were dimpled,
And sweet as budding rose,
Lay side by side together
In hush of long repose.
Up from the dainty pillow,
White as the risen dawn
The far little face lay smiling,
With the light of heaven thereon
And the dear little hands, like rose leaves
Dropped from rose, lay still,
Never to snatch at the sunshine
That crept to the shrouded sill.
We measured the sleeping baby
With ribbons white as snow,
For the little snow-white coffin
That waited him below;
And out of the darkened chamber
We went with dreary moan,
To the height of the sinless angels
Our little boy had grown.

it was as bright and sunny as n summer

with whom in early life Thackeray had
studied etching and whose illustrations
were feature of Dickens earlier works
Cruikshank was then in his SEVENTEEN
