 processes which culminate in the pro- duction of what Is really work of art. This is, as it should be, to mark out it's possessor as different from his compan-

 The bronze used is of very hard quail ity, end as record is kept by the gov eminent of the quantity supplied and the number of crosses which are made it has all to be accounted for, allow ance being naturally made for waste, which is inevitable. For this reason the bronze Is weiged out to the work men with as much care as if it were one of the precious metals like gold or pla- tinum
 The first operation in connection with the manufacture takes place in the foundry, where the cross is cast. The first cross was modelled by the artist in a hard wax, from which model pat tern was cast. This was preserved with great care, and from this pattern molds are made in specially prepared sand. which is capable of retaining good impressiog. These molds, which, it need hardly be said. are made in two rarts. are allowed to become thoroughly dry and hard and the surfaces Sare prepar- ed with plumbago to, give them addi- tionel smoothness. The sand isa packed in @ little iron case made in two halves interlock,ng very closely and accurate ly, and at the upper part of each half of the case is q sami-circular hollow. which, when the two halves are joined, forms q complete circle. When the mold is got ready a piece of wood is placed in the sand and when the two ends of the case are brought together and joined the wood Is removed, thus leaving tube connecting directly with the mold of the medal so that the liq- uid metal may be poured into it. Thus the mold Is placed in large iron bath, so that in case any of the metal is split in pouring 1t may be read fly recovered. The bronze is melted in crucibles of clay or plumbago placed in a powerful draft furnace
 The temperature of this is somewhere about 20OO degrees Fahrenheit, heat almost intolerable for the ordinary in- dividual even to come near. In spite

Old Grimes is dead, that good old man. We ne'er shall see him more; He used to wear long black coat All buttoned down before. His heart twas open as the day,
 His feelings all were true; His hair was some inclined to gray He wore it i'll a queue. Whene'er he heard the voice of painr His breast with pity burned The large round head upon his cane From ivory was turned. Kind words he ever had for all, He knew no base design; His eyes were dark and rather small, His nose was aquiline, He lived at peace with all mankind, In friendship he was true; His coat had pocket holes behind, His pantaloons were blue. Unharmed, the sin which earth pollutes He passed securely o'er- And never wore d pair of boots For thirty years or more. But good old Grimes Is now at rest, Nor fears misfortunes frown; He wore doube-breasted vest The stripes ran up and down. N He modest merit sought to find, And pay 1t its desert; He had no malice in his mind, No rutfles on his shirt. His neighbors he did not abuse Was sociable and gay; He wore large buckles on his shoes, And changed them every day. Ills knowledge, hiG from public gaze, He did not bring to view, Nor make noise town meeting days, As many people do. His worldly goods he never threw In trust to fortunes chances, But lived Gas all his brothers dol Ill easy circumstances. Thus undisturbed by anxious cares His peaceful moments ran, And everybody said he was A fine old gentleman.

of this, however, the operator watches carefully for the melting of the bronze. When it becomes liquid he withdraws the white-hot pot by means of q pair of long tongs and pours the molten liquid into the molds with as much dex- terity and with, as rule, as little loss as lady pours out a cup of tea in the afternoon.
 Although to the untrained individual it may seem quite easy, it nevertheless requires great judgment to get the met al at exactly the right temperature and only practice does that. If the bronze is too hot it burns and the zinc and tin evaporate, giving off noxious and dan- gerous fumes, at the same time alter ing the composition of the alloy. If, on the other Tandy the bronze is not hot enough 1t does not flow readily and So fails to fill up the interstices of the mold accurately.
 Even with the employment of work- men who have made the cross for many years 1t often happens that when the metal is cooled and the molds are brok- en many of the medals are found to be imperfect, and have to be remelted and cast second time ocer, The same is true with regard to the bar decorated with laurel leaves, to which the letter "" is attached, and which is made In -------- <xN.. ..As- r YraA YH- -..t

There are some interesting applica-
 stance, Professor Atwood of the Vir-
 ginia Polytechnic Institute has collect
 ed abroad the germs concerned in the
 production of various kinds of wine
 Sauterne, champagne, Rudesheimer and
 the like-with a view to improving the
 character of American wines Each
 kind of wine has its own species of
 germ, it is believed, without which the properties characteristic of that variety
 would be wanting. The germ is mi mute vegetable organism, which finds it's ,nourishment in the juice of fruits. The germ theory in its extreme form assumes that, given fruit juice of neutral character, any kind of wine can be made from it, provided the germ proper to that wine is used to cause the fermentation. Professor Atwood, how ever. does not go so far. The most that he will affirm is this: There are good germs and bad germs. There are germs which will produce strong, even fer mentation, carrying it on with regular ity until the sugar is consumed. And there are other germs which will not produce this fine character of fermen- tation and which appear quite incapa- ble of breaking up all the sugar. Then some germs leave cloudy liquid, which is difficult to clear. Further, these various germs appear to be able to produce different odors, which ma- terially affect the bouquet of the liquors produced. Given a proper variety of fruit grown on favorable soil and the juice expressed in a proper manner so as to guard its cleanliness, then sown at once with strong culture of good yeast, it will be able to obtain such control of the liquid that the bad germs are quite crowded out and eventually the proper germs remain in entire pos- session of the field; thus it's character will be given in considerable measure to the resulting liquor. But to say that any fruit juice containing even the ]

A strong iron market Is supposed to be an indication of prosperity. There fore a prediction that is made by the Iron Trade Review is cheering. That paper says; The maintenance of the s15.25 basis is significant of the dispo- stion of large interests to have the present level of prices preserved. There are evidences that consumption is keeping up to the remarkable level that earlier in the year seemed to be the continuation of the activity starting in the late summer of 1900. Allowing for the appearance of extraordinary activity that has followed the ending of the steel strike in the simultaneous efforts of many buyers to get their or ders in early, there are sufficient data to warrant confidence in a strong mar ket well into next year.
 Now if we can have a strong copper market also many people will feel bet ter.

If the wind and the rest of the things are right to-day the Shamrock will make another effort to outsail the Co., lumbia The result of her effort on Thursday, though perhaps not decisive against her, was not encouraging to those who are paying for her, or to those who are only roofing for or bet ting on her. Sir Thomas Lipton still has hope, but there's many a slip be- tween hope and the cup. Some of those who feared the Shamrock no longer fear her, and the confidence of those who believe in the Columbia is increasing. She is certainly a gem of the ocean, and the indications are that she is about to prove herself the gem of the ocean.

JAPAN AND THE L.4M M i.

Japanese polteness in China has
 to be of great importance to the rest of
 the world. After the relief of the Pe-
 kin legations the Japanese troops
 found themselves in charge of the dis
 trict where the temple of Lamaism
 stands. The Eama himself had sought
 safety in flight, and the fine buildings,
 with their contents were at the mercy
 of the victors. The Japanese treated
 the place with veneration, guarded it
 against sacrilege, and ultimately re-
 stored it unscathed to its owners. Of course the latter's gratitude was very real and such relations were establish ed with the Lama on his return to Pe- kin that he formed the project of visit ing Japan. This visit has just been paid. The Lama was received with honor, and in several public addresses tried to identify Buddhism with the idea of national union between China, Japan and Korea against the western encroachment On one occasion he spoke of the thanks he owed to the Japanese troops for protecting the sa- cred edifice in Pekin, and restoring it, with all its treasures intact At an- other he expressed the nope that Tibet and Japan, having a common creed, might always be found Tn friendly agreement; and finally, at his last public reception in Tokio, he declared that Japan China, and Korea all de- rived their religion from the same pure source, and that its superiority to had been proved during the recent troubles in China. The speech of the Lama derived additional importance from the fact that it was preceded by an address from Viscount prominent Japanese politician who insisted upon the importance of close alliance between China, Japan, and Korea.
