Early Iron Industries.

A piece of iron, discovered in the
foundation OF an Egyptian pyramid,
is believed to have dated from more
than 5000 years before the Christian
era, but yet knowledge of cast iron is
comparatively recent. In olden times
only wrought iron was obtained from
the ore, as, indeed, it still is in Asia
and Africa. However, skillful the
ancients may have been in producing
pig iron, the knowledge of cast iron
dates only from the beginning of the
fifteenth century, and is first mention
ed in the archives of Lille. The prac-
tical application of cast iron began at
the period when water-power super
seded manual labor for blowing the
bellows. The art of molding only re-
quired the transition from pig to cast
iron. Besides cannons, cannon balls
were cast to replace the old stone pro-
jectiles, and their molds were made of
gypsum. The casting of iron directly
from the blast furnace gradually open
ed up wide field of applications. In
1705 the first cast iron pipes were used
for the water service of Versailles,
followed by screwed and Hanged pipes.
In 170S Darby patented the system of
box casting, and in the following year
he started the Coalbrookdale foundry,
which in 1880 turned out the first cast
iron bridge. About the same time
malleable cast iron was invented in
France. The English cupolas, first
mentioned in 1854, were Of German
origin. American Manufacturer.

Allurements of Prospecting.

Thefascination which prospecting has
for its devotees often excites the won
der of people who have had no person
al experience with the allurements of
searching for hidden wealth in the
mountains, says contemporary. Once
the prospecting habits get good hold
of man it usually sticks to him until
he is too feeble to follow mule up a
mountain trail, if, in the meantime; he
has not had the good fortune to strike
bonanza. Even then he is liable to
sell out his claim for mere tritle be-
fore he realizes it's richness, and start
after another. Starvation often stares
him in the face. He sometimes escapes
death from exposure and frost bites
only by miracle. But neither hard
ships nor privations can induce him
to give up his chosen calling.
The secret of this mysterious en-
chantment was recently revealed in a
brief dispatch from Boise. Three
brothers had just returned from the
Thunder Mountain district, bringing
with them from SIT, 200 to $40, in
gold. This comfortable cleanup was
taken from the ground in about eight
days. The men have for years been
placer miners. They may have picked
up but little, yet strike of this sort
was always before their eyes, and now
that it has come years of fruitless toll
is repaid by the returns of few days.
1t is just such chances as this that
keeps the prospector ever hopeful, be
his discouragements and disappoint-
ments ever so numerous. The same
allurements which attaches to galnb-
ling fascin ates the hunter for mines.
He knows that there are big odds
against him, but the stake is also a
big one. He hazards days work in
the hope of winning a fortune. The
days pile up into years and the years
often become a lifetime without the
capital prize being struck. But there
is always the thought that it may only
be one day Or one week distant, and
he keeps on putting up his labor for
another turn of the wheel.
Gambler though you may call him,
he has added and still is adding un-
told wealth to his country and SO in
creases the chances for prosperity of
you and every other person in the
land. When he makes a winning the
whole country shares it with him, and
no one is the loser,

; Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock
recently ruled that in obtaining pat
ent for mining claim q mill which is
situate on another claim cannot be
credited to the first claim as improve
ment to establish the $500 expenditure
required by law as condition prece-
dent to patent. The ruling was based
on the argument that mill, while an
indirect benefit to mining claim, yet
it is of no direct benefit or aid to the
actual development OF the claim.

evening on visit to their relatives,
Mr.. and Mrs. O'Bryan. Miss Bragg
is Professor of Chemistry and Miner
ology in Wellesley college, and a
member of the American Association
of Advancement of Science, now in
session at Denver, and in order to be
present at it's sessions had to leave on
Monday. While here they took ad-

Invention in Mining.

Inventive genius is doing for the
mining industry what it has done for
other phases OF our industrial life. II
is lifting the location to q higher level
and framing for it magnificent sue
cesses forsthe future. In ancient times
surface mining was alone possible, for
there were not adequate appliances for
deep mining. The gold that was ham
mered into veneering for the temple
Of King Solomon was probably pla.
Ger product, though it must be con-
fessed that the mines of Ophir have
never been definitely located by curl
GUS man since they were lost in the
remoseless shuttle of passing years.
The next most voluminous accumula-
ton Of gold found by Pizarro with the
Inca of Peru, was also from the sur
face, for the ancient Peruvians were
not greater adopts to deep mining than
their tran-Atlantic cousins of the an
| Gent world. Before the days OF gun
powder for blasting purposes the art
|of working rock was tedious process
that practically destroyed the profits
of mining. even when slave labor was
employed. The ancient miner seems
never to have discovered the use OF
lime in blasting, as it was often ap-
| piled in an early day in the west when
powder could not be secured. Alter
nately layers OF dry and damp lime in
2 drill hole was a comparatively slow
but effective process of breaking rock.
As the water percolated from the damp
lime into the unslacked lime force
was generated that could find express
sion only by breaking the rock. The
advance made in mining during the
last few years has been marvellous.
Not only have machines been devised
to simplify the work and expedite min
|ing operations and increase the out
put but chemistry has grasped the
problems of the underground world
with brilliant success. The treatment
ef ores has kept pace with their ex-
fraction from the earth. Science has
clasped hands with invention and ut
'ered prophecy Of magnificent sue
eesses for the future of the industry

The American manufacturers of tin
plate are making rapid gains in their
attempt to enter the foreign markets.
OF course, their exports are yet small
as compared with the domestic demand
which they are meeting, but they are
again reducing the imports, which
temporarily increased in 1900 under
the excessive demand and extremely
high price of materials, and are at the
same time increasing their exports in
manner which proves interesting to
those who have watched the develop
ment of this comparatively new indus
try in the United States. The figures
of the Treasury Bureau of Statistics
show that the exports of tin plates
from the United States, which in the
ten months ending April, 1899, amount
ed to only 1873, ,955 pounds, and in the
ten months ending with April, 1900, to
275, $50 pounds, were, in the ten months
ending with April, 1901, 1905, 100
pounds. In imports Of tin plates the
figures for the ten months show ma
terial decrease as compared with the
quantity imported during the same
period of the preceding fiscal year,
being $1,000, 722 pounds, as compared
with 123,59S, ,733 pounds for the ten
months period of last year.
Our total expectations of tin plate
in the fiscal year 1901 seem likely to
be from eight to ten times those OF
1899, while the importations Of tin
plate into the United States promises
to be little more than one-tenth those
OF 1891, the year Of the largest imports
alton OF tin plate into this country.
