A MODEL SAW-MiLL. HUMAN HANDS NUPPL.ANTEU in STEAM. IKON AND STEEL.. A Shining Hand of Toothed Stff! t'wts Through the I.og at tho Rate of 10,000 Feet a Minute. T~F it had a river and net logs tlx I World'.. Fair saw mill would be K- complete. It stands behind Mo ohinery Hall, and at 2 o'clock every afternoon attracts rU yiaitor. within healing distanco bj Jfiie zip and buzz of the saw going through r. log. The raau who is tliero at thai hour may see a log aliced into boards .and laths quicker than ho had ever dreamed was possible, unless he huh rubbed saw-duet out of his eyes on the Menominee River. "Visitors to the saw-mill ascend the narrow stairs expecting to 6ce a huge circular saw crunching its way through a log. lie doca not. know that th< days of circular eawa are numbered, and in this ngo that boards are cut by baud anws, until lie sees the shining belt of toothed steel cutting through the log at the rate of 10,0(10 feet .1 minute as the carriage moves forward. As he follows the process ho notices that the wood is only handled by 0 man from the tiino that the log itplaced at the foot of the haul-up nuti 1 tlin -I . the floor. Steam, iron and steel have supplanted hands iu tlic saw-mills of today. The log ia brought up on an endless ohaiu from the ground, which represents the pond level. Ah it comes to the head of the haul-up it strikes u bumper which, by means of a lever, turns stenm into the cylinder of the ' dipper,'' which automatically throws the heavy chunk of wood to the "deck." an inclined platform down which the log rolls against a steam "log Mop." Sawyer Finnegan has his eye upon it and as it lands against the r.top ho puts his foot upon a small treadle and the steam fairly hurls it to the carriage. Finucgon then moves a lever nud up from below a huge b ir ol steel with movable teeth on it springe into view. It is the steatn "nigger" which drives its fatign into the log nud turns it until it is properly placed foi the saw. The Better. Norman Watson, is on the carriage on the otlmr side of tin log. His duty is to manage tlm "feed" each time so as to get the proper thickness of the board. Few persons entertain eveq n lurking aspiration for his position after they have aeon liim jerked forward and back before the band saw >< dozen times. Speed in everything iu a sawmill. Vrnm ufarl .?

The log ih scared* M-t before the lawyer, who Mauds beside the saw, pulls a perpendiculm lever. The Hotter on th?> osrruig?- seems to take a firmer grip ou liiii levers nxi?l rod**, and, "zip, the 1 >nn?t haw is slicing off it slab. Another movement of the lever and the carriage, which his been moving forward at lightning speed. shoots buek with n roar. Without the loMof n fifth of h second it spring* upon flie mw sgnin. and while the "zip" is Mill ringing in the ear tlic carriage returns again This thiug is repeated until the fog is cut up. A% the carriage stops visitors e.izo upon \\ atson. the setter, w ith great admiration and wonder how he maintains hiH place. Tlie carriage is operated by a steam feed as it is culled. A cylinder thirty-two leet long and rune inches in diameter lies on the floor. Front it projects a piston rod w hich is connected with the carriage. Quick-acting valvea at each cud of the cylinder operated by a lever in the 6uwyer'a hand admit steam at high pressure through a three-inch opening. In tliia way the carriage is moved forward and backward and can be stopped instantly at any point by u slight movement of th?? lever. The carriage moves on truck wheels which rest on steel rails. As it returns to its starting point it also moves sideways away from the saw blade live-eighths of an inch. This "off-set" gets rid of any danger from slivers striking the blade. The carriage movea thirty feet each time, or sixty fool a round trip. If the null mi. ton hour.< the carriage would travel neventy miles, carrying log* up ami down the trunk. The band saw hat a twelve-Inch blade which would stretch out fortyeight f<jet if cut. It travola over two eight-foot pulley* nt the rate of 10,(XM) feet n minute or 410 luilen nn hour. Just above the log it stream of water fall* on each aide of the blade for ticpurpose of keeping the saw from bocoining hot. The first cut from the log makes a "slab." It drop* to a table in wliioh aro tlvc moving roller* that carry it forward until the slab hits a slop. Transfer chairs, moving nt right angle*, carry the slab from the table under a "gang" of forty-two-inch circular mwh placed four feet apart, so that tho slab in cut into four-foot length*. This gang of sawa ia called the "slasher." The cut slab* fall <nto a chain conveyer, which takea theni to a teu*aw "laibbolter," which cut* the sections into one mi l one-half iuch strip*- from the bolter the atrijn I pas* to a gang lath mill, which cuts four laths i?t oucc, ami from tlicro to the lath binder, whore thy buit'llca are tied by hand. Those are placed in a bundle and lath-trimmer and cut into any length from four feet to six inches. While the slabs are moving to the right into the lath mnohinery the boards are sent to the left. Rudolph Mintz, the "edger-inan," takes them ns they fall upon the table and riuu theui through an adjustable edger which has four sawB on one side for edging and ten saws on the other aido placed one inch apart for making ilooriug. A "cent," which is a atiok of timber six inches thick and fourteen inches wide, is run through the ten saws nud comes out eleven strips of flooring six inches wide and one iuch thick. The board? are passed through the other side of the edger, and, without loss of time, go over a roll to a train of chain carriers ranuiug to tho left. The clinins take tlio boards to tuo trimmer,"* where Trimmer Steadnian cuts thorn into ten, twelve, fourteen and sixteen-foot lengths by simply pressing down foot pedals. "This is a model mill,** said H. II. Mitchell the millwright, who put it up. "We would like to operate it all day long, for a saw-mill seems to be a novelty to a majority of the visitors who come here. We could cut up a big pile of logs in a day. Finnegan lias a record of Hiabbiug 1050 logs in a rua of ten hours, and that is a lot of lu?al*er." At the Centennial all the saw-mill machinery was of tho circular suw order, with one exception. W. L. Covel, who lias been in tho saw-mill business ever since he was able to file a buck-saw, spoke of the exception as the beginning of the change in the form of saws. "The first band saw," said Mr. Covel, "was a little one, with a 1}-inch biade, and about ten feet long, made in France about twouty-tivo years ago. It attracted little attention. Hut an old uian, in America, came to the Centennial with the tirst bundsaw I ever saw. It was a large mill, with a 12-inch blade, with the pulleys so arranged I lint it would out tit auy initio. Hawmill men regarded it with nstouiahmout, but it fnilcd to do ita work iu kuoIi n wuy n% to compete successfully with the circular saw. Manufacturers, however, examined it closely, saw its wesk points and went home to improve on it. About n year after the Centennial 1 heard of a band new at South Bend, Ind., that could cut 18,000 feet of whito aah iu teg hours. That woe looked upon as wonderful. A few days ago. in the State of Washington. a band saw turned out 103,490 feet of boards, eighty-five per cent, ol them one inch thick, in twelve hours. " Hi is astoniabing increase in capacity i* entirely due to improved method* in manufacture. Tlicoiiginal band snwH were made, fitted, sharpened and turned by hand. Now all that in done automatically by machinery. The earlier blades hardly had two teeth alike, all varied one way or the other, but even then makers aaw that the cir culnrn were out of (late. Tliey soon found that it was necessary for all the teeth to be alike and that tho bla t? must be loosened in the center by hammering it ho hh to make it spread. 1*Inc makes the C(lgca run straight over the pulleys and given a straight cut. Then they found that their milln wero too likbt, so built them heavier, and now baud-naws are used in every large and modern mill except a few in tho South."?Chicago Record. (ZJitinj a M.ijaih?.
