- * STEEL RAILS. How They Are Made toy the Bessemer Process Turning Heaps of Iron Ore Into Steel Bails Heady for tlio Market, "Within sii'-' f of the battle-field where Bracltlock defeated in 1755, near the present city of Pittsburgh, the Messrs. Carnegie have made amends for that re pulse of civilization by the great victory j of peace which is known in the commercial world as the Edgar Thomson Iron and Steel Works. Here iron ores are made into Bessemer steel rails before they are allowed to cool. The ores from mines in Pennsylvania, in Michigan, in the South, and frt>m abroad are unloaded in heaps, between the walls of which are roads for carts and paths for wheelbarrows, laid out as streets in a city, far below the tops of the little mountains of ore and coke and limestone. Here the proper admixtures of different kinds of ores, and with them of coke and lime- j ptone, are made and hoisted to the fur- | naces. These burn day and night, seven | days a week, and to create the blast the j power of a long row of enormous engines is required. Though singly they would r*. have that almost inaudible motiou of the great Corliss nii^-ine, in combination their own motiou -uid the blast they produce make a roar of power more like elemental forces than of machinery of man's devis lnS At the Carnegie "Works the pig-iron j stage of Bessemer steel manufacture is I avoided. The molten iron is not allowed i , to cool, hut i^coveyed in iron cars di- j , rectly to the Bessemer "converters." ; The "converter" is the elliptical vessel, j ( swung high above the floor, in which the 1 iron is converted into Bessemer steel. It swings on axles at either side, and the < molten iron is run into it while it is in a < horizontal position. Another great blast { now does its Avork, this time of cold air, i and as the converter gradually regains its 1 vertical position the 1 st is started before the metal reaches the bottom of the < . vessel. With a great roar the flame ^ shoots upward, and the oxygen is ab- g sorbed by the silicon and manganese, i Then the flame increases in size and bril- 1 liancy, and becomes first orange and af- t terward purple, and when the carbon is removed it subsides. The converter is i now tipped over, and the metallic man- s rrn rvnen /pnin/?Alm'/-n? * ~ ? 1N guuvow ^opic^cicjauu is guiierany uscti^ i t that is necessary to complete the making t of steel is added, and tlie flame and cin- | k dera shoot higher than ever, with great s brilliancy and much noise. The space < about the converter for a moment is tilled with flying fhunc and sparks that make -as brilliant a spectacle as can bo conceived. All that now remains to be done ( is to pour the purified molten mass from j, the converter into ladles and thence into , molds, where as soon as it becomes solid, it is Bessemer steel in ingots. It is not j allowed to cool, but is loaded by hydraulie derricks on iron cars, aud drawn by a e locomotive into the rolling mill. There every ingot is placed in a furnace and again heated red-hot.

The ponderous . machinery moves it on to a solid carriage, where it is cut into pieces, or "blooms," each of proper quantity to make a rail. The rest of the process is simple, but it is simply Titanic. The next rollers the block of steel reaches elongate it still t more, arid shape it into a rail. The rail is cut smooth at each end by circular saws as quickly as matches are sawed from blocks of soft wood, the difference being that this saw-dust is red-hot sparks. The ^ rail is straightened by the eye under another steam-hammer, bolt-holes are bored ^ at either end, it is now allowed to cool ^ for the first time since it ceased to be ore, ? and is ready for the market. The ma- _ nipulation of the red-hot metal, whether in ^ molten or malleable condition, from the c blast-furnaces to tlxj last process, is al- n most wholly accomplished automatically; at the Edgar Thomson Works the only fuel used is natural gas.?Harpers Week- g '? ' i, Jordan's Knapsack!. h While on the march from Frederick fi City, Md., to Gettysburg,, in the summer B of '03, Sergeant Jordan, of Company G, e< Nineteenth Maine, carried an unusually h large knapsack, which was the occasion e1 of a good many sarcastic and teasing re- pi marks by the boys. One very hot day, when the dust and blazing sunlight were tc almost blinding, Jordan was trudging along beneath the weight of his mammoth knapsack, his hat pulled down over his eyes for protection, when some one 18 on horseback rode up and called out: ^ "Say, Sergeant, how far are you going to carry that knapsack?" di "Farther than you can drive your old P1 horse if you swap three times," yelled *u Jordan, whose patience had already been pretty thoroughly exhausted by a thou- P* v Band such questions. - 111 ^ The horseman, with his scabbard gent k ly raised the front vim of Jordan's hat, *ei looked him in the face and replied: m "Well, you will do, by thunder 1" ^ Imagine the surprise of Jordan when ^ he recognized General Hancock in the ^ person who had spoken to him.?Chicago ar Ledger. 03 Weather Indications. "Rain follows two or three consecutive honr frosts. A shower of hail in the daytime is usually followed by frost at night. A tinted halo around the sun at setting occurs m long continued rainy weather. If, on a fine clay, the dust suddenly rise m a revolving spiral column, rain is near. Rainbows are unreliable, cxccpt they occur in the morning, when ram may bo cxpcctcd. A dazzling metallic lustre on foliage, during a cloudless day in summer, preccds a change. Sun-dogs and fragments of prismatic colors during tlio day show continued unsettled weather. No dew in the morning is mostly followed by rain, and a heavy dew in the evening by a fine day. A halo around the moon, especially if some distance from it, is a sure indication of downfall at hand. If after rain drops of water still hang on the branches and twigs and to window frames the rain will return, but if they fall and the woodwork dries fine weather is at hand. Stones turn damp before wet; at tlio same time it must be observed that the fact of their doing sc does not invariably indicate rain, for they will do so occasionally before heat. If the sky be a dull gray, and the sun rises clear, gradually dispersing the vapors, it will be fine. If lie retires behind I the clouds, nnd there arc reddish streaks about, it will rain. Often a beautiful sunset will be followed by a bad day. After a rainy day, suddenly at sunset in the far West will appear a magnificent streak of crimson (not copper colored)?this generally foretells a fine day. Mists at evening over low-lying ground jr near a river precede fine and warm lays. If a mist in the morning clears off is the sun gets higher, it will be fine, but f it settles down again after lifting a ittle, rain is at hand. The man who is out of doors nt sunrise :au form a pretty accurate opinion* of vliat the day is to be. If just before unrise the sky, especially in the "West, s suffused with red, rain generally folows in the course of the day. In winer, often snow. Huge piled-up masses of white cloud 11 a blue sky, during winter, indicate now or hail. If small, dark clouds float >elow the upper ones, moving faster than hey, rain will follow, as it will if, in the aorning, low banging, pale brown, moke-like clouds are floating about.? 7assell. Bismarck's Lovo of the Country. Bismarck loves the country, though nost of his life has been passed in cities. 'What I like best," he once said, "is to >e in well-greased top-boots, far away rom civilizatior." It is said that once, while at school in Jerlin, and walking in the suburbs, he ame across a plough. His homesickness xpressed itself in tears. In one of his :arlier letters he wrote: "I am quite homesick for country, roodside, and laziness, with th6 indisicnsable addition of loving wives and rim, well-behaved children." Phrenolo;ists say that one of the largest organs on iismarck's massive head is that which ndicates his love of children. The German statesman is never so hap>y, say his friends, as when he is gazing t a beautiful landscape, or walking bout his farm. "Believe me," his wife nee said, with natural exaggeration, "a urnip interests him more than all youi lolitics." His friends point to Lenbach's portrait f Bismarck, which hangs in the Nation1 Gallery at Berlin, as the one in which lis features assume their noblest expresion. "We were engaged in conversaion," said Bismarck, describing how hat expression was caught by the artist, 'and I happened to look upwards at a lassing flight of birds. Suddenly Len>ach exclaimed, 'Hold hard! that will dc apitally; keep quite still,' and forthwith iOUC UlU NICICII," The chancellor, when at Varzin, hi# ountry estate, banishes the cares of tate and becomes farmer and forester, ti "well-greased boots," with staff in and, he wanders about the woods and elds, noting nature and his farmers.

"I am thoroughly convinced that there such a thing in this world as supersti- [ on," said a photographer. "For many i ;ars 1 Have noticed that business was { nil on Fridays, but that is nothing com* ' ired to the number of people who reise to take thirteen photographs. The ' yle nowadays, you know, is a dozen lotos for so much, with a panel thrown f . Nearly everybody wants the panel, \ it fully one-tenth of our customers are one of the photos here, that they ay avoid taking the unlucky number ol J irteen home with them. More women 1 an men are affected in this way, ough they usually want us to put in icther one so as to make fourteen."? jj \icago Herald. I fl, . . : An Unwise Union. At times the words of good otd lirmi are tortured by unsuitable tunes. ?s a church-goers know. Now which is that singing is to follow, the words or tl tunc? What is the real purpose of <n churches, in the act of singing in the d vine services? Is it to render a 'music thought" adequately or to give it a poet sentiment fitting expression? Once win ! t was preaching in a church beside tl Hudson river, in May, the busiest mont of the fishing season, I gave out tl hymn, "Jesus lover of inv soul." Tl lender set it to a tune which, for the sal of some man's "musical thought," r peated half of the final line. When ueai'l the first verse I shrank with coi steriuNtion in frightful prospect of tl second1: for the movement ran thus: Ol receive?Oh receive?Oh receive my so at last." That did no harm, it was si in] ly unnecessary. But the next was awfn When I repeat it it will he considered joke, although I am writing it in sr earnest of a fact which almost destroyc my service: 4'Cover my defenseless hen ?with the shad?^"ith the slmd?wil tin* shad ow of thy wing."
