When the coal boring was PM down
At Dover about six or eight years ago.
BY Mr.. T. Brady, on the site of the old
Channel tunnel works, there were indl-
cations in the cores of the presence Of
ron orc in the strata between 500 and
SOC feet from the surface. The inaica-
tons have now proved correct, says the
London Chronicle. In the course Of
sinking the No . shaft bed of galu-
Idle o7litic iron ore has just been
struck at a depth Of rather less than
}Go feet. The seam proves to be no less
han twelve feet thick and probably ex-
lends over a great area, the quantity
being practically unlimited. The diam
ater Of the shaft is twenty feet and the
quantity brought to the surface in
passing through the twelve feet
amounted to about $50 tons. Samples
Of the ore have been submitted to anal
ysis- with highly satisfactory results, a
washed sample OF the ore yielding 458
per cent of iron. On visiting the col
liefy works today I inspected a consid-
cradle bulk Of the ore and the mana
ger informed me that a washed sample
tested at the works yielded between 80
and 90 per cent o. iron. The analysis
shows that the ore is free from sui
phnr and phosphorus. The ore is stat
ed to be of much richer quality thar
the Wealden ifonstone, worked in Kent
and Sussex a century ago. Prof. Boyd
DaRkfns in paper read before the
British association in 1894, described
a sample obtained from ,tha original
boring. From this 1t appears that this
bed Of iron ore is identical with that
described by Blake and Hudleston at
Abbotsbury, In Dorset, where it occurs
between the Kimmeridge clay above
and the CoraIlian rocks below. It is
also practically Identical with the val
liable iron ore worked for many years
in Restbury, Wiltshire. The ironstone
presents very singular physical char
acteristics. It is composed of dark
brown, shining grains of hydrated OK,
fde of iron. like millet seed, imbedded

Machines Masle Nowalays.


Maehines Made Nowadays.
It is a more or less familiar fact that
sewing machines are used nowadays
fer sewing many different materials,
as leatheF, paper, canvas, carpets, rub
Der They are used for making but
tonholes and sewing On buttons They
are made Of many types and in simply
hundreds Of varieties for special uses.
But t may not be known SO common
~ that there are many sewing ma
chimes now made with more than one
needle. The first of these, a two
needle machine, was made in the early
eighties, about fifteen years ago. 1t
was used by manufacturers Of heavy
clothing, perhaps first Of ali by the
overall manufacturers, making seams
stronger by putting in two rows Of
stitching. The utility and economy Of
the two=needle machine soon became
apparent and it came into widespread
and diversified use. Whenever two
rows Of stitching Were to be made,
tive needle machine was used. A fa-
miller illustration of the work IS seen
in the two parallel lines Of stitching
running with perfect exaetness around
the t0p Of a Shoe Hamp Shirt sleeves
TIRE stitched into the body Of the shirt
on double needle machine. the two
rows being made in the same time that
It would take 10 make one Collars
and cuffs Were stitched On two-needle
machines, as were a great variety OF
these things, and later there were pro-
duced machines with more than two
needles. the first of these coming into
use within five Or six years. There are
now made sewing machines with IS
many as twelve needles A twelve
needle sewing machine simply has
twelve needles where the ordinary
sewing machine would have one. In,
stead of single spool Of thread on the
top Of the machine there appears there
rack Of twelve spools. There are
twelve tension disks. The thread from
each spool runs through It's own ten
sion disk to its own needle. There are
below twelve shuttles, one for each
needle. When this machine is oper-
ated, it makes twelve rows of stitch
ing, just as an ordinary machine would
make one. The twelve-need1e machines
are used chiefly in the Manufacture of
eorsets.
