Fortunes Buried or Tucked Away In
WastsfuI Neglect.
None can estimate the wealth hid
den in the days Of the war between
the states. Down mountain slopes.
across the great plantations and along
the streets Of cities Of the south are
trails of lost fortunes. On the Missis.
sippi river the shanty boaters tell tales
Of kettles Of gold coin and money that
were buried in the brakes or revealed
In the caving bank of the Mississippi
by cascade of coin rushing down the
crumbling slope into the food. Now
and then some sharp darby appears
with handful Of old gold.
A mathematician might estimate the
quantity of nugget gold hidden by the

MAKING GOLD PENS.
The Metals That Are Used and Tho
Process Of Manufacture.

The Metals That Are Used and The
Process Of Manufacture.
The tiny tip Of white metal seen on
the under side OF the point Of gold
pen may be Of platinum. but it is more
likely to be iridium. iridium is very
hard metal, and 1t is expensive. 1t
costs about four times as much as gold.
The purpose OF the iridium tip Is. Of
eourse. to give the pen more durable
point
| The gold pen maker buys his gold at
the assay Office in bars of pure "a carat
gold. which be melts and alloys with
silver and copper to the degree OF fine
ness required. Gold OF IA carats IL
used in the manufacture Of the best
American gold pens. that being the de-
gree of tneness deemed most suitable
for pen use. but good pens made in
this country for sale in France are
made of IS carats. the French govern
ment requiring that all articles exposed
for sale in that country as made Of
gold shall be Of not less than Is car
ats.
The gold from which the pens are to
be made Is rolled and rerolled until
what was originally thick, heavy bar
Of gold has been rolled into thin gold
ribbon about three feet in length by
four inches wide Then this gold rib
bon is put into machine which
stamps out of it pen shapes. all still
fat. Then on the top Of each Of these
pen shapes is fused the iridium point,
and then the shapes go to Sitting
mac hine. which cuts the slit in the
pen. From the Sitting machine the
pens 60 through another, which gives
them their rounded. familiar pen form.
and then the pens are ground and pol.
ished and finished ready for use.
American gold pens in fountain pens
or as dip pens are sold in every coun-
try in Europe in competition with pens
Of British or Of German manufacture,
and under the same competition they
are sold throughout the world in South
America. Africa, Japan. China, wher-
ever pens are used.-New York Sun.

u Made the Principle Of Locks Clear
u the 0utehmen.
It Is not known who first conceived
the magnificent idea of connecting by
q canal Lake Erie with the Atlantic
ocean. Experiments to- improve the
navigation OF the Mohawk BY means
Of small canals and locks had been
tried years before De Witt Clinton
built the Erie canal. The purpose.
which was to connect Lake Ontario
through the Mohawk with the Hudson.
met with formidable obstacle at Lit
tie falls. where the river descended
for a mile or two over a series of
rapids.
General Philip Schuyler of Revolu
ttonary fame had planned a series Of
locks to overcome this descent Of the
river. Knowing that the success Of
the project would depend upon the IA
vor with which the Dutch farmers.
settled near the river, received it, he
visited them. Calling meeting at
tavern. he unfolded his plan. The old
Dutchmen loved and honored Schuyler.
for he was the head Of an old Dutch
family. They were delighted with
the prospect Of the commerce Of the
state sailing past their farms, but they
could not comprehend how boats could
ascend Little falls.
The general by means of drawings
explained the principle Of locks. 1t
was in vain. The stolid Dutchmen
shook their heads, saying that they did
not believe a word of it. Water would
lot run uphill, and it was useless for
the general to endeavor to make them
believe that it would.
The general went to bed mortified
at his failure. Turning over the thing
in bis mind, happy thought suggest
ed itself. He arose, lighted candle,
took a knife and few shingles and
went into the tavern yard. Digging a
miniature canal Of two different levels,
he connected them by lock Of shin
giles. Then he summoned the Dutch
men, who came grumbling at being
aroused from their slumbers. Pouring
water from a pail into the little canal.
he locked chip through from the low
er to the upper level.

Concrete Stays Put.

As concrete gets older it becomes
harder and more durable-that is, Of
course, If the concrete is properly
made. The usual means Of wrecking
a house have not the slightest effect
on concrete. The sledgehammer, the
drill and dynamite must be used.
Acids might be used to disintegrate
the concrete. but the expense would
be enormous. The only thing to do is
to loosen the material with explosives
and then break it free from the steel
reinforcement with sledgehammers.
and that is a long, tedious job.-Boston
