The plates are forged under steam hammer-g, "\bent to shape with pooh the extraordinary xesults 07-min”- L at the Indian Head proving grounds, but last year the Admiralty virtually admitted that Mr. Tracy had taught it Something â€"â€"a. confession not often madeby that bud} . In a. memorandum prepared by Lord Georg»- Hamilton for the gmdanve of Parliament in voting the appropriations for the Navy it was stated that the armor plates of night-L steel “combined resi~tance to perforation with freedom from serious cracking.“ and that extensive orders had been given for nickel armor as the secondary defence of new hattleships. Lord George added that. while nickel steel was superior to ordinary steel when used in thicknesses of three or four inches, “the experiments with greater thicknesses do not at present place it in so good a. relative position," but it is under- stood that his SIXL'CL‘SSOX‘ has found 3 Mi inch plate, such as that used by M 2'. Tracy, superior to a 12-inch plate of ordinary armor steel. Admiralty agents have re- cently visited Sudbury to consult with the Vivian people, who have a. mine and smelt- ing works. Specimens of wrought and forged nickel were exhibited by Mr. Wharton at the Philadelphia Exhibition in 1876. The metal was discovered in 1751, but had uldom been seen in its pure state until M r. Wharton took hold of it. The use of nickel as an alloy of steel gave it great economic importance. The compound is tougher and much more ductile and elastic than steel itself, and does not rust under water. English melaliurgists employed it in the manufacture of gun barrels, but the real credit of “bringing out" nickel steel belongs to the Navy Department at Wash- ington.

The New Caledonia nickel is found in beds of serpentine. but the veins are shallow, nnd in miner’s par- lance not persistent. The ore is mined by primitive methods, convict labor being em- ployed as well as native and Chinese labor, and carried many miles to the blast fur- naces, which are fed with Australian coke and coal. The cost of transportation alone in a heavy item and the fuel is dear. The object in smelting the ore is to produce a matte. Nickel matte bears the same rela- tion to refined nickel that pig-iron bears to refined iron and steel. In 1882 the aver. age price of nickel in the United States was about $l a pound. The American pro- duction wee under 300,000 pounds. The price in England was somewhat less, the Inglish supply coming from New Caledonia. the mines of which were opened in 1876. The development of the Sudbnry deposits has reduced the price to 50 cents, and when appliances for treating the matte have been established on a. large scale. refined nickel can probably be bought for 25 cents or less.

All the untaken mineral lands in this region belong to the Crown, and the Crown means the Government of the Province of Ontario. Until lately the land, including everything on the surface and everything below, was sold out-and-out at $2 per acre, without any conditions as to working being imposed on the purchaser. This led to the wholesale grabbing of land by speculators. In 1891 an act was passed attaching Work- ing conditions to all conveyances from the Crown from that. date and exacting a royalty of 3 per cent. on nickel.

The French especially have been struck with the idea. that “this woman of '73, cov- ered with glory, Queen of a happy England and l‘llnIH‘CaS of a peaceful India,” should again let her eyes rest upon the toys with which she played more than s1xty years ago. "Another fact in connection with the Queen's dolls, on which French newspapers love to dwell, is that Her Majesty has shown an interest in the dolls which, in the words of one French chronicler, looks al- most. as if she would have liked to be left alone with her beloved toys and take once more into her arms the ugly, old-fashioned 1 w. ‘£(‘At\l (furiously enough, the last Emperor of the French had an army of dolls, which in many respects were like those of the Queen.

One morning the late Prince Imperial, then a child, was playing with young Fleur-y in the room where his father’s toy soldiers were kept under glass. His tutor gave permission to the boys to play with them, and the son of the Emperor led one-half of their number against the rest, which were headed by the son of the General. In half an hour's time the army of statuettes had ceased to exist. Nicholas 1., (,‘mr of all the Russias, was another of the sovereigns who had a lean- ing towards toy soldiers. \Yhen, in 1836, he made changes in the uniforms of the Russian army, he had the new apparel of each regiment drawn by the cleverest art- ists in the country. Next, forty figures were orderml to be constructed by the lead- ing sculptors, and uniforms were then made after the water color drawings to fit the puppets. It was thus that the great Nicholas studir-(l the effect of the new uni- forms.

For instance there were times when he would grant a stranger I portion of his time even when he was busy. One day a young reporter was sent to ask him if it was true that he was in- terested in a scheme to buy the Island of Cuba. from Spain. Mr. Gould was nowhere to be found and nobody seemed to have an idea. as to his whereabouts. Giving up the task of finding the Wizard in desfmir the reporter walked 11 Nassau street on his way back to his 0 ce. Chancing to look in the dork shop of a second-hand book- seller the delighted reporter saw his prey seated on a stool reading a little brown and across the title page top, in a neat hand, was written “Alexander Hamilton.” “There was a mathematician and financier for you,” exclaimed Gould. “What a rail- road man Hamilton would have made ! Do you know, young man, that in order to run a. railroad well there is a great deal of fine figuring to do? Look here, I can’t talk to you about Cuba. because there’s nothing to say, but you sit down there and I’ll tell your paper something about running a. rail- road, and they’ll say you’re pretty cute to get Gould to talk about anything.” With that he reeled of? a. most graphic account of the heavy expenses of a railroad company in directions which people did not usually think of, and a. most interesting column story it made. “You can thank Alexander Hamilton's ghost for that interview." he concluded with a grin, and oil‘ he went with the little worn book.

He was also a man of considerable local influence, and one day when Mr. Gould was journe ing by special train in the Republican alley, he was invited on board to consult with the magnate about some new railway projects. The subject in hand was soon disposed of, but Judge Borton was invited to make the entire trip with the magnate. From rail- roads the conversation drifted to other topics, Mr. Gould taking no part. Finally Jud e Borton got to telling stories. Mr. Can (1 eat like a sphinx until Borton told for the first time his famous story about the cheerful sod-house settler who became so sore pressed by poverty that he resolved to abandon all attempt at living like a human being and get a buffalo hide and tail and run wild.
