Nav Metal of Much Value.

Alien is the name given to a new
metal which is composed of two parts
Of aluminium and one part Of zinc,
writes Consul General Guenther from
Frankfort. 1t is sail to equal cast iron
IN strength, but is much more elastic.
Alien Is superior because 1t does not
rust as easily as does iron, and it
takes a high polish. Besides being
very strong, this new metal Is capable
Of filing out the most delicate lines
and figures of forms in casting.

FACTORY CHILD LABOR.
what Has Reen Done In the RegnIa-

What Has Reen Done In the RegnIa-
tion OF IT In New York.
Before the enactment of the first fac
tory act in 1886 child labor IN the fac
tories Of New York was practically I'M
regulated. The employment or young
children throughout the state was gen,
eraI and widespread. In the up state
mill towns It was admitted BY every
one that many children under the age
of fourteen years were employed. The
few manufacturers who endeavored 70
enforce fourteen year limit were rare
exceptions. Hundreds OF children Ie
tween the ages OF eight and fourteen
years might be seen every morning and
night going to and from factories
A dozen of the younger children were
stopped, says Fred Rogers Fairchild In
one OF the publications of the Amerl-
can Economic association entitled THE
Factory Legislation OF the State Of
New York, and questioned as to their
ages. The oldest was thirteen 9th
ers were ten. eleven and twelve years
of age. One Of them, child of eleven
years, had been at work for five years
The employment Of children from eight
years old Up MAS general IN an kinds
of occupations. In the crulIer bakeries
OF New York city little children from
nine to thirteen years Of age worked
all night getting what little sleep they
could in the shops during the daytime
Agents of tI.e Children's Aid society
found chlldrea only six years Of age
employed IN factories The factory In,
spector said il was not uncommon for
children seven and eight years old to
be seen trudging before daylight to the
factory and after twelve hours of
steady work and confinement trudging
back to their homes after dark. The
statement was made BY q man active
In securing the first child labor law
that before the passage Of that law
It was not uncommon 70 find children
six years OF age working sixty-slx
hours a week.
Tho result OF this extensive employ
mont was evident in the physical con
difion and lack of education Of the
children A great deal Of testimony

the very verge OF the precipice, the lit
tie man In the same soft voice be had
used from the first directed Jake to
come to a full stop, to tie the reins to
the brake handle and to get down from

him, keeping the revolver in position,

of revolver. He then drove the ruff.

dered him to take out a rope.
