PLATED TIN SPOONS.
Somewhat Elaborate Processes II
voIved in Producing a Simple
lJfanSil

Somewhat Elaborate Processes In.
voIved in Producing a Simple
Utensil.
Here is one way of making spoons,
the process described being used in
the manufacture of one variety Of tin
plated spoons.
In It's original form the material
from which these spoons are made
comes in long thin strips of steel
rolled to a uniform thickness. The
strips are twelve or fifteen feet in
length and of a width sufficient tor
the length of the spoon to be made.
These strips are fed into cutting
machine which cuts off pieces each
of sufficient size for making a spoon,
these being simply so many small,
fiat pieces of sheet steel.
Then these blanks are put through
a grader, a machine with powerful
rolls, which so works the metal as to
make it thinner in those parts of the
blank that are to form the bowl and
the handle of the spoon and thicker
in the middle of the length of the
blank, from which the shank Of the
spoon will be made, so that it will
be the better able to bear the bend
ing strain that will be put upon the
spoon in use.
From the grader the blank goes
into drop press, which cuts it into
the outline form of a spoon, though
from this press it comes out stlA
fat.
Then in another press the bowl OF
the spoon is formed, and then IN
still another the handle, and so at
last you have the spoon in it's COM
plete spoon shape, in steel, ready
now to he tinplated by dipping 1t in
molten tin.-New York Sun.

R4IlWAY ACCIDENT. s
Account Of the Most Serious One Aus'
tralia Has Ever Had.

Account Of the Most Serious One Ausr
tralia Has Ever Had.
A correspondent In Australia writes
to us as follows:
Last Easter Monday witnessed what
is claimed to have been the most sert
GUS railway accident which has yet oc-
Cured in Australia. Up to date
(April 29) the official roll of deaths
and casualties Is: Deaths, A; casual
ties officially reported, 378. (The num-
ber of deaths was given later as y.
and of those injured at 419)
Briefly, what happened was that
Bendigo train travelling with a full
complement Of Easter excurslon1sts
and consequently very heavy and con-
siderably behind scheduled time, ran
into the junction station OF Sunshine
at such a speed that the Westinghouse
brakes could not pull her up In time
| to prevent the running down anu
wrecking of Ballarat excursion tram {
| which had just arrived from the line
in the West Snd had begun to unlQaa
her passengers.
There seems to be little foundation
for the drivers statement that the
brakes refused to act. Not only did
onlookers notice the sparks from the
wheels of the whole train for some
hundreds of feet before the accident
occurred, but the comparative lmmun-
ity from casualties Of the Bendlgo
train shows thct these brakes must
have been acting /,
after the accident the state OF al
fairs was rendered more horrible by
fire which broke out. Unlike the Am
erican trains, Australian trains are not
fitted with axes, hammers, jacks ana
such appliances TO facilitate the re-
moval of the victims after an accident,
and a. great deal OF the trouble, and
even many of the deaths, may be dl-
rectly traced to the delay in extr1cat-
J Ing the sufferers from the burning de-
bris.
: There Is at the present juncture no
need to elaborate such Irregularities as
that the trains were both running long
behind their scheduled times. Such oc-
currences are common with all excur-
sion trains on Easter Monday, and are
! not specially confined to state railways.
: But every one acquainted with railway
work will see at once that the possihil-
; ity of such an accident on modern in
! terlocking railway, ostensibly equipped
> with the best interlocking gear, should
: be inconceivable. Naturally, the state
government has ordered a full inquiry
into all the circumstances, to be con-
Quoted by judge of the supreme
court, assisted by the best engineering
talent.
"The result of this inquiry will be
awaited with some interest. Not only
is Victoria an example of country
!, where the railways are entirely owned
J and controlled by the state, but for
: many years it has been held up as
model of the advantages which follow
l that political system. At one time in
9 this state of Victoria public safety was
i regarded as of greater consequence
e than revenue. Latterly, however, the
D local press have been complaining that
r too great economies are being prac-
tised for safety" ."-Engineer.

had taken in escaping, where he had

where he had helped bury the body
OF one Barney, and that the body
had been found, after the snow melt

"The question will arise" said Mr..

to show that it was. The defendant
was in prison three months before
he was taken to Colorado, and in all
that time he had given no intimatiOn

visited by certain persons that he
did repudiate it."
