KAHLER & WATSON. H T T T • • i.e T C A T How T himbles are M ade .—The manufacturing of thimbles is very sim­ ple, but singularly interesting. Coin silver is mostly used, and is obtained by purchasing silver dollars. Hence it happens that all the profits of the business are affected by all the varia­ tions in the nation’s greenback promis­ ses to pay. The first operation strikes a novice as almost wicked, for it is noth­ ing else than putting a lot of bright, silver dollars, right fresh from the mint, into very dirty crucibles, and melting them up into solid ingots. These are rolled out to the required thickness, and cut by a stamp into cir­ cular pieces of any required size. A solid metal bar of the size of the in­ side of the thimble, moved by pow­ erful machinery up and down in a bottomless mould of the outside of the same thimble, bends the circular disc into the thimble shape as fast a« they can be placed under the descending bar. Once in shape, the work of brigh­ tening, polishing and decorating is done upon a lathe. First the blank form is fitted upon a rapidly revolving rod. A slight touch of a sharp chisel takes a thin shaving from the end, another does the same on the side, and the third rounds off the rim. A round steel rod, dipped in oil and pressed upon the surface, gives a lustrous pol­ ish. Then a little revolving steel wheel, whose edge is a raised orna­ ment, held against the revolving blank, prints that ornament just out­ side the rim. A second wheel prints a different ornament around the cen­ ter, while a third wheel with sharp points makes the indentations on the lower half and end of the thimble. The inside is hrighteued and polished in a similar way, the thimble being held in a revolving mould. All that remains to be done is to boil the com­ pleted thimbles in soapsuds, to remove the oil, brush them up, and pack them for the trade. The Director General of the Centen­ nial Exhibition, to take place in Phil­ adelphia, in 1876, has appointed a State Board, or executive committee for the State of Oregon, consisting of Gov. L. F. Qrover, Rev. E. R. Geary, C. P. Burkhart, M. Wilkins, and S. G. Reed. The said committee held a meeting in Salem on Wednesday, the 18th. We give the following synopsis of their proceedings : Governor Grover was called to the chair, and S. A. Clarke, Secretary. On motion, the following committee was appointed on permanent organiza­ tion : Messrs. Dufur, Geary and Burk­ hart. The Board then adjourned until three o’clock P. M., when the com­ mittee made their report as follows : The Centennial Board of Commis­ sioners for the State of Oregon shall consist of one Executive Committee of three, consisting of Gov. L. F. Grover, Hon. A. J. Dufur and James Virtue, together with an advising committee of seven, as follows : Rev. E. R. Geary, lion. C. P. Burkhart, Rev. Thomas Condon, Hon. S. G. Reed, Hon. M. Wilkins, W.
