Wesley Condemned Tea.

In the year 174S the question
whether tea was a wholesome bever-
age was still vehemently disputed in
England. 1t was beverage rapidly
becoming of common use, though as
yet not by any means national. The
workingman, for instance, still stuck
to his tea. In that year John Wesley,
who was then 45 years of age, wrote
letter to a friend on the subject.
He says that twenty-nine years be-
fore the date, when he was only 16
years of age, soon after he went to
Oxford, he was alarmed by signs OF
a "paralytic disorder" Now paraly-
sis does not often seize on boys of 16.
His hand shook in the morning; it
was worst after breakfast; he OBJ
served that if he left off drinking tea
it got better. He continued to be
subject to this trembling of the hand
for many years, all the time drinking
tea regularly. He then observed much
the same phenomenon with people in
London. He found that the hand
shaking was most common with tea
drinkers. He then began to consider
the case; the trembling, the weak
ness of nerves; the cost of tea-up-
ward Of $3.50 a year to himself; the
saving in all ways if he could give
it up.
He did give it up; he took to water
and cruel instead. He preached alb
stinence from tea to others on the
highest grounds-self-denial, health
of body, restoration of nerves, and
money saved which might be given to
the poor. Apparently, he preached
without much effect, if we may Judge
by the returns of the importation OF
tea. The substitutes which he recon-
mended were bread and milk, oat-
meal porridge, water Cruel with but
ter and salt, tea made of sage, green
balm, mint, penneroyal and other.
English herbs; 'foltron," which, he
says, could be had at any grocers.
What is foltron? But it would not
do. The people were quite willing to
listen to his religious exhortations,
but his advice as regards tea was too
much for them. They went on drink
ing it. AT last their nerves got used
to it, and their hands left off tha
shaking.

THE OLDEST STEAM ENGINE.
Constructed by Boulton & Waltz 1877,
ibid Dn Until Recently.

The oldest engine in the world is in
the possession of the Birmingham Ca
nal Naviga tons, this engine having
been constructed by BoultOn and
Watt in the year 1777. The order is
entered in the firms books in that
year as a single-acting beam engine,
with chains at each end Of wood
beam, and having the steam cylinder
80 inches in diameter, with a stroke
of 5 feet and erected at the canal
company's pUlIping station at Rolfe
street, Smethwick. During the pres
ent year 1889 this remarkable old
engine, which has been regularly at
work from the time of its erection to
the current year, a period Of, say. 120
years, was removed to the canal COM
pany's station at 0cker Hill, Upton,
there to be re-erected and preserved
as a relic of what can be done by
good management when dealing with
machinery of undOubted quality. 1t
Is worthy Of note that the Birming-
ham Canal Navigations favored Boul-
ton and Watt in 1777 with the order
for this engine, and in 1898, or 120
years afterward, the company have
intrusted the same firm, James Watt
and Co., Soho, Smethwick, with the
manufacture of two of their modern
triple-expansion vertical engines, to
be erected at the Walsall pumping
station, having 24O horsepower and
a pumping capacity of 12,713,6OO gall
Ions per day.-London Engineering.

Calumet & Heckley.

Calumet G. Hecla stock was offered

the capitalization was only 10000

company has paid in dividends be-
tween s50,0OO,0O0 and s6O,OO0,O 900, and
the ore is still running frem 3 to 10

vested his wages in the shares OF the

Wonderful mine. 1t has a pump with
a capacity of 6O,0OO,OOO gallons daily,
supplying the artificial rivers for
washing the ore. The next largest
pump is in Philadelphia. The Qua
kers think it the grandest machine
on earth, and never tire OF showing
it to visitors, yet it is small thing
in comparison, having a capacity OF
only 24,0OO,OO0 Four thousand men

Scarcity OF Tin Ore.

The scarcity of tin ore in the
world is pointed out by Geologist B.
G. Skertchley, of Australia, in a pub
lished monograph. He shows that
while known gold fields cover $780,
600 square miles of the earthIs sur
face, the located tin fields have an
area Of only 1880 square miles. The
seven tin districts of Europe produce
about $500 tons yearly, with 5000
tons Of this credited to the Cornwall
mines. Asia has two tin districts;
Human, in China, said by some to
yield 10000 to $1,000 tons annually,
but proven to yield less than $500
tons per year; and the tin mines Of
the Straits Settlements and adjacent
territory, the richest in the world,
yielding $4,000 tons yearly. Africa
has no known tin mines; North
america has no paying mines; South
America mines less than 1000 tons
per year in Bolivia and Peru, and
Australia contributes about 5000 tons
a year.
