WELDING COPPER
 AND BRASS TO STEEL

ono If the large steel companies in Pitlsburg has perfected a process of welding copper and brass to steel. The process consists in taking a billet of steel and welding thereon a piece of copper or brass of the proportionate thickness which ii is to bear to the sheet when finished After welding. the billet is heated ana rolled in the same manner as copper or brass sheets are rolled. The proof of the welding is the fact that the two metals roll uni- fefHly, bearing the relative proportion in which they started in the billet. The company states that since the process
 was perfected nearly year ago il has never failed to make a perfect weld.

Vulqarity of QuarreIino,

There must be satisfaction in tor. turing human beings, for it Is done so often. Nobody planes wife for up- holding her self-respect and resenting insult, but there is little sympathy for one who deliberately drives a man to deeds of rudeness and violence. Nag ging and indulgence in bad temper leave indelible marks on the face of a woman, on her voice and on her char acter. They shriyel up whatever sweetness nature has put into her dis position and make her unlovely, even in the eyes of those who feel in duty bound to give her affection It is often hard to maintain silence under provo. cation, but there is always the open door Of escape, you know. A quarrel does not thrive when fed from one side only, and what should be impor. tant to every woman with pretenses to refinement is the undisputed vul- garity of pickering. Education and refinement are supposed to lift us SO lar above vulgarity that even the hems or our skirts are unstained. d.-Exchange.

YOUTHFUL MIND IN DISTRESS.
Awful Possibility That Loomed Before
 six-Year-Old Jackie.

Six-year-old Jackie's mother be- heved that absolute truthfulness was the only rock on which to build that youthful gentleman's character, and the consistent working out of this principle did away, of course, with be- lief in all such things as fairies, Santa Claus, and other illusions dear to childish hearts, and they became in- stead "make-believe" games, Santa Claus in particular being pet joke" between his mother and himself.
 Jackie came in from play one after noon much excited and concerned. Mother. Jimmie Norton believes there is really and truly Santa Claus. He says he Is sure that Santa Claus does come down the chimney. He wouldn't believe me at all when told him it was just a joke" with rising anxiety.
 Jackie's mother was somewhat non- plused. Well. son." she temporized, perhaps Jimmie's mother will tell him the joke some time soon, and then"
 Oh. l hope she will" broke in Jackie. forgetting his manners in his earnestness, because, you know, fl she don't, when Jimmie has little boys of his own they won't ever get any Christmas presents"

EMERsoN's MEMORY AT FAULT.
Had at Times Almost Entire Lack
 of Remembrance.

Emerson was notable sufferer rom the vagaries of memory. His bi- ographer relates that he met him one day in Boston. apparently at loss for something, and asked him where he was going. ITO dine," said Emerson, with a very old and dear friend. I tnow where she lives, but I hope she won't ask me her name," and then he proceeded to describe her as the mother of the wife of the young man the tall man-who speaks. so we'll" and so on. until his interlocutor guessed to whom he was referring.
 Even the names of common objects often failed him completely On one occasion, when he wanted an umbrel- la, he said: T can't tell its name, but l can tell Its history. Strangers take 1t away"
 This failing of Emerson led to pathetic scene when he attended Longfellow's funeral, and remarked as he gazed at the coffin: "Ie was sweet and beautiful soul; but I have entirely forgotten his name"

ters at Salt Lake City, and Superin- tendent Crocker fitted up and down the line to the Front whenever the Sacramento office did not claim him.
 The movements of the directors seemed fatally slow to Gregory, the man of steel, who must ask no ques- tions but execute their office-made plans. He chafed more than ever over delay in forwarding materials, for he was desperately near the end of all the rails on the coast.
 Why don't you get iron across the Isthmus?" he asked of Mr. Crocker when the latter had told of the de- layed ships carrying iron, locomotives and other supplies.
 "What?" the superintendent cried in dismay. Pack iron across the Isth- mus? Preposterous! The directors would never consent. Hopklns-he'd go crazy! We"
 Good heavens, MT. Crocker! Don't let him-let them hold us up now!"
 But, Gregory, we're planting money under every foot of track, finished and unfinished. Think of the things that need to be done, rebuilt, mended. And last week we killed 20 Chinamen. We'll have"

 "Toano eatin' house."
 Good enough! There's a chump there now that don't know beefsteak from a mules hoof. I'm glad he's got to go. It's a good stand. You can hook trade from the U. P. outfit there, too"

Tt can't be done in time."

Tt can, sir! Telegraph the governor at Salt Lake. He'll telegraph the order, rush the foundries, dozen of 'em. By jiminy, You can put the iron afloat in a week, have it here In 40 days!"
 MT Crocker caught fire. By George, Gregory! I believe We might do it. I'll have talk over the wire with the governor" He was about to turn away, but stopped to give Gregory a paper. There's Tuesdays Clarion. h. teresting reading there. They're beg ging the Union Pacific to fly by us, come into California by Beckworth pass and snatch our trade"
 Let the Clarion blow. We're giving the U. P. about all the knitting work they can tend to, we and those dried beef-colored Sioux"
 Hold on, Gregory! We'll be charged with murder, yet" laughed the other. There's the train!" he added, as a whistle pierced the still air.
 The men walked along the newly laid track, past the construction train to the rear and awaited the approach ing iron train.
 "Only five cars!" groaned Gregory. Tt won't keep the spikers going any time."
 Who's that woman standing in the car door? Well, if 1t isn't Sally B." Mir. Crocker exclaimed, and went for ward
 There she stood, smiling, alert, her mourning discarded, her travelling suit the smartest, her strong personality raying out hypnotically to all within reach. The moment the train halted she tripped down the steep steps, and went quickly toward the two men, calling out voluble greetings on the way. First MT. Crocker, then MT. Gregory, she embraced with impartial cordiality, and kissed each audibly on the cheek
 Its the same old Sally B. Time can't touch her, youth can never for get her." Mir Crocker said gallantly.

Molasses and Suuar.

The term "molasses" is properly ap- piled to the saccharine product which Is separated from sugar in tie process of manufacture. A syrup is the direct product of the evaporation of the Juice of sugar-yielding plant or tree without the removal of any of the sugar. The term molasses applies to the same process with the exception of the fact that the sugar has been re- moved at least partially by crystalliza. tion and some kind of mechanical sep. aration of the crystals from the re- maining liquid

By the side of a lake. at the ex- tremity of ford, close to the compos. CTS native town of Bergen. there is a natural grotto formed in the solid rock, which rises precipitously from the waters edge. Here the bones of the famous musician are buried, and. as the grotto is only accessible from the lake. the funeral cortege will have to make the journey by water.
