The Evening Oregonian, u thoroughly
reliable free trade paper informs ua that
a large force of men has begun work
within :i mile of NorristowD, Pa., pre
paring a plant for the first foreign tin
plate manufactory to cross the ocean and
locate in this country. There was no
flourish of trumpets to announce their
coming. Kichard Iewis, manager for
. W. II. Edwnrde, the owner of a number
of tin mills at Swansea, -Wales, says it
is an experiment that'must affect hund
red of mills now stretched along the
Swansea valley, in which the tin plate
of the world has been manufactured for
years. Mr. Lewis arrived in America
on May ISth, and immediately set out to
elect u site for this plant. He picked
out an abandoned manufactory at Ear
nest station, on the Pennsylvania ' road.
This site is selected with the ultimate
' purpose of moving the entire plant from
'Wales. The factory. v ill begin opera
tions with a capacity of 140 tons of tin
per week. . Nine workmen from -Swansea
are there putting the machinery in
" place, and in six weeks' time it is ex
pected that its product will bo put out.
E. W. Moore & Co., another large - tin
lirm, has scut a representative Ao- this
country, anil he has decided to locate at
Elizabethport, N J.'
If this state of affairs continues a little
while the entire tin import trade of the
United States will bo ruined. If . the
tariff reformers do not throw themselves
. into the breach, and that right suddenly,

out like the light of a . tallow dip in a

' not come to the rescue, home competition
will have reduced the price of the poor
. man's dinner pail so low that he will be !
- compelled to use a more expensive ma
terial to save his reputation. Down)

poor man in the country who combines
frugality with industry-will have become j

If un'o desires to see eastern life in the
( ""most picturesque and startling phases he
Is advised by the Spokane Review to
"Visit the I'oeu? iPAlene Indian" reserva
tion and behold the sudden, glory of
Parisigu and London modes when trans
ferred to the home of the North Ameri-
can Indians. It will be r remembered
that " these Indians recently received
nearly half a million dollars from the
. United States in exchange for a portion of
their reservation, They number all told,
fewer than 500 souls, and the distribu
tion of the cash gave every man, woman
and child more than $1,000. This sud
' -den advent of affluence, added to the
natural wealth already possessed by the.
"tribe, has made, these primitive, people,
perhaps the wealthiest community, in
the United States. For weeks after the
payment of the money the merchants on
' -the border of the reservation did a rush
ing business in Parisian bonnets, por
goooa carriages,, swift . roadsters, silver
ononnted harness, sealskin sacks and all
the finery oi modern civilization. - One
.-squaw came into town,, says the Review,
riding her cayuse in cavalier , fashion ;
and when she drove homeward she was
the very picture that would have created
"a sensation, even, in the.' parks, of the
great cities of Europe, She had a fash
. ionable 'dogcart . of tan color,' a three
minute trotter, a'$27 bonnet, 10-button-
kid gloves, and the cayuse was hitched
. on behind. A. family of five. rode, in
'. upon caynses and went home in a blaze
of fashion, occupying a $600 carriage,
... and the fiye'eayuses tied on behind,! the
head of one attached to the tail of the
other." From 'all of which H is seen that
- sudden wealth; .like jWhisky, seems, to
have pretty much the same effect upon
the Indian as updn the white man. , .,.
"The bond holders and, money sharks
are all in favor of Cleveland's, nomina
tion," says the Dispatch, and yet" there
are a hundred chances to. One that the
Dispatch will .be,, hurrahing for Monsr

THERMOMETERS ARE MANUFAC
TURED WITH GREAT CARE.
They Are Made Very- Accurately, and, !
Though Quickly, . Pass Tarauga Mioe- I

Processes of the Instruments. - I
t
Tho making of a thermometer may be
either a delicate scientific operation, or 1
one of the simplest tasks of the skilled !
mechanic, according to the sort of ther- '
IMUlUCbUl UlUC. ,ll,U. (. UtJ VAUCiUUiJ
sensitive and minutely accurate instru
ments designed for scientific uses great
care is taken, and they are kept in stock
for months, sometimes for years, to be.
compared and recompared with instru
ments that are known to be trustworthy.
But so much time cannot be spent over
the comparatively cheap thermometers
fn comxnoivuse, and these are made rap
idly, though always carefully. The
method of manufacture has been so sys
tematized within a few years that the
very cheapest thermometer should not
vary more than a fraction of a degree
from the correct point."
Whether the thermometer is to be
charged with mercury or alcohol; wheth
er it is to be mounted in a frame of
wood, pressed tin or brass, the process
is ' substantially the same. Mercury is
generally used for scientific instruments,
but most makers prefer alcohol, because
it is cheaper. The alcohol is colored
red with an aniline dye which does not
fade.
The thermometer maker buys his glass
tubes in long strips from the glass fac
tories. The glassblower on the premises
cuts these tubes to the proper lengths,
and with his gas jet and blowpipe make3
the bulb on the lower end. The bulbs
are then filled with colored alcohol, and
the tubes stand for twenty-f onr hours.
On the following day another work
man holds each bulb in turn over a gas
jet until the colored fluid, by its expan
sion, entirely fills the tube. It then
goes back into the hands of the glass
blower. He closes the upper end and
turns the tip backward to make the lit
tle glaas book which will help keep the
tube in place in the frame.
MARKIXO THE TUBES.
The tubes now rest until some hun
dreds of them, perhaps thousands, are
ready. Then the process of gauging be
gins. There are no marks whatever on
the tube, and the first guide mark to be
made, is the freezing point, 83 degs.
Fahrenhoit. This is found by plunging
tho bulbs into melting snow. No other
thermometer is needed for a guide, for
melting snow gives invariably the exact
freezing point. This is an unfailing test
for any thermometer whose accuracy
may be suspected. But melting snow is
not always to be had, and a little ma
chine resembling a sausage grinder is
brought into use. This machine shaves
a block of ice into particles, which an
swer the purpose -as well as snow; .-.-
When the bulbs have been long enough j
in the melting ' snow a workman takes
them one by one from their icy bath,
seizing each so . that . his thumb nail
marks the exact spot to which tho fluid '
has fallen. Htfre he makes a scarcely
perceptible mark upon'" the glass with a i
fine file, and goes on to the next.
Tho tubes, with . the freezing point !
marked on. each, now go into - the hands
of another workman, who plunges them, j
bulb down, into a vessel filled with .
water kept constantly at ' 64 degs.
A standard 'thermometer attached to i
the inside of this vessel -, shows that .the
temperature of the water is correct, j
Another tiny file scratch is pnt at 64. - j
Then a third workman plunges -the j
bulbs into another vessel of water kept
constantly at 9G. . This is marked
like the others, and the tube is now sup- '
plied with these guide marks,' each j
83 degs. from the next. A small tab
is then attached to each tube, on which
its number is written for, owing, to un
avoidable variations in the bore of the
tube, each one varies slightly from the
others. .. . ; . . ' , . .'
MARKING THE CASES.
With its individuality thus established
the tube goes into the hands of a mark
er, who fits its bulb and- hook into the
frame it is to occupy, and makes: slight
scratches on the frame corresponding to
the 32, 64 and 96. degree .marks on the
tube.'- The frame has a number corre
sponding with the number of the tube,
and the tube is laid away in a rack amid
thousands.
The frame, whether it be wood, tan
or brass, goes to the ' ganging room,
where it is laid upon a steeply sloping
table, exactly in the position marked for
a thermometer of that size. The 32, 64
and 90 degree marks must correspond
with the marks upon the table- " If they
do not, the' error in marking is detected
and the frame is sent back for correc
tion. : . ' ... , .'"..-. i - "
.-' A long,, straight bar or wood or metal
extends diagonally across the table from
the lower right hand corner to the upper
left hand corner. ' On the right this
works upon ; pivot and oh the left- it
rests in a ratchet, which lets it , ascend
or descend, only -, one notch at a time.
That notch marks the exact distance of
2 degs. . With the three scratches already
made for a basis the marker could hardly
make a mistake in the degrees if he tried.
" The marks made upon the-frame, or
case are all inads by hand with-, -a .geo
metric pen and. India ink if the. frame is
of wood, and with steel; dies if it is of
metal. The tube bearing the correspond
ing number is next attached to the frame,
and the thermometer is' ready "for the
-market without further testing. Some
makers use only two guide marks, but
the best makers use three.' .
In the process of manufacture .the
ordipary thermometer goes through the
hands of nineteen " workmen, half 'of
whom are Often girls and women. Some
of the larger concerns m and near it ew
York produce several hundred thousand
instruments annually, and on every one
of, them, the purchaser may see, if he
looks, closely, the tiny file scratch on the
- glass at 33, 64 and 96 degree marks or
somewhere near them, as different' mak
ers use different points. New York Son.:

"I am very, much pleased with Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy,". - says II. M.
Bangs, the druggist at Chat worth, III.
"During the epidemic of la. grippe here
it took the lead and was very much bet
ter liketPthan other cough ' medicines.'-'
The grip requires precisely .the same
treatment as a very severe cold, for
which this remedy is so efficient. It
will promptly loosen a cold and relieve
the lungs, soon effecting a permanent
cure, while most other medicines iu
common use for colds only give tempor
ary relief. . 50 cent bottles for sale by

to state that the "Oregon" is the'sfron
est lime on the market ; that it tcill vork
wore plastic and leave tho work when set
stronger and firmer than any other lime at
present manufactured in either Oregon
or Washington. Wm. BullerA Cot, Agents
