The largest pro duct, $79,000,000’ was that o f the United S lates; Australia was second, with $77,000,000; and mo.-t o f tho reft came from Canada, Rus sia, Mexico and Africa, in the order named. King Edward®, it is said, hire asked Sir Thomas Lipton, his inti mate friend, to accompany the Prince and Princess o f Wales on their American visit. W ithin re cent years there has been no Englishman more generally popular than Lipton with Americans. Ilis familiarity with this country would make the gallant gentleman and sportsman a valuable conpanion for the royal party, and his presence would adu no little to the pleasure of their American entertainers. Tools which are for any reason superanuated not up to the standard of modern requirements are ruth lessly discarded in American shops, no mutter what they cost, or how short a time they have been in service. A case in point is the enormous steam hammer at tho Bethlehem Irou Works which was. and still is, a monster in it« class. It is over 90 feet from top to bot tom, and is 38 feet square on the base. The weight of the striking parts is 120 tons, and the steam pressure 120 pounds per square inch. The steam cylinder is 76 inches in dia meter, and the stroke nearly twenty feet, The hammer is being demol ished, notwithstanding toat it has only been in existence 11 years. Hydraulic squeezing presses have been found far more efficacious for reducing large ingots, inasmuch ns the stress penetrates to the center, while the hammer-blow is compara tively superficial. The cost o f this tool must have been very great, but it had to go and so was ordered demolished in spite of its cost A count was recently ma le in New York of those attending church oo Sunday.
