IN KRUPP’S GREAT FACTORY
How Cannon are Made In thu Most
Extensive Steel Plant on
Earth.
Every one has heard of the great
Krupp cannorm and the factory where
they are made in Essen Germany but
few of us can visit the works and see
the gigantic machinery necessary for
making the monster guns that form
the heavy armament of most European
nations and are even sent to Ameri-
ca. This factory is distinctly a pro-
duct of the nineteenth century rep-
resenting today the stored-up efforts
of three generations of Krupps. The
grand-father opened a little iron-fac-
tory elghty-nlne years ago and after
struggling along for sixteen years left
hls modest shop and three employes
to his young eon Alfred. He it was
whose energy and enterprise were to
build up the greatest gun factory In
the world. But this was not accom-
plished without endless labor priva-
tions and even the sale of the family
plate to pay his men for wages.
In 1832 there were nine men In his
employ; this was after six years of ef-
fort and yet he had not created a de-
mand for the product of the works.
It took him nine years longer to ac-
tually establish the works on Bo firm
a basis that then it was only a ques-
tion of his capacity to fill orders. The
increase In the business which he did
is best Indicated by the number of
men in his employ. In 1848 he had 72
on the pay-roll 1849. 10"- in 1859 1391;
in 1876. 10500 in 1892 25310: in 1899
41.750. This tremenduous army of men
is employed in the iron mines coal
mines and various factories controlled
by Krupp for It was early decided by
Alfred Krupp that he would be inde-
pendent of all other companies and
he even went far as to have hLs
own steamers to bring him ore from
Bilbao.
In this way strikes cannot affect
him. for his care of his own work-
men has made strikes impossible in
his own works. He has given them
pensions homes and hospitals schools
and chunhes far outdoing the famous
town of Pullman and engaging the
affection of his workmen by hls pa-
ternal interest In their welfare. His
son. F. A. Krupp now continues the
business along the lines laid down by
his great father.
A visit bo the works at Essen is a
life-long experience one that can never
process and you see fifteen huge "con-
verters” at work. At a signal one
of these opens its huge mouth a gut-
ter drops toward it and a glowing
stream of fluid rushes in. the mouth
closes and with a roar the full force
of the blast is turned onto the the
glowing mass of Jron making flreworks
more brilliant than plain ever con-
ceived. The heat in this process is
only about 5400 degrees Fahrenheit.
The mouth opens. A workman takes
out a sample tests it; it is all right
and within fifteen minutes 15400
pounds of steel is made. The fluid
steel runs into the casting pan and
thence into the molds. Over one
thousand tons of steel are made in
this hall every day.
The cannon are made of crucible
steel which is a compound of puddle-
iron and puddle-steel mixed in little
crucibles holding about one hundred
pounds each. The puddle steel and
iron are manufactured here in the
puddling hall and the ingots are cut
up into thin bars to be placed in the
small crucibles. The proportion of
steel and iron is regulated by the
size of the cannon tn be made. To
see this material become a cannon we
go to the smelting house where 500
tons of crucible steel are produced ev-
ery day. The crucibles are filled and
placed in large smelting ovens which
hold 100 of them. There is a long line
of these ovens to right and left of the
pits so many that they can turn out
421.000 pounds of flowing steel at one
melting. The crucibles remain in the
ovens for five hours attaining *a tem-
perature of 3600 degrees Fahrenheit.
Here and there a crucible is drawn out
and tested and found all right a sig-
nal given the oven doors fly open and
three men seizing each crucible with
their tongs the white metal is poured
into the molds hissing and bubbling.
Crucfbie after crucible is emptied
into the gutter leading to the forms
and a continuaus stream of metal
flows on. The huge cylindrical blocks
of steel weighing seventy to eighty
tons each are thus formed and as soon
as they are hard enough are lifted out
of the molds by huge cranes loaded on
cars which carry them to the power-
ful hammers "Max” and his big
brother "Fritz.” How gently the
huge mass of steel weighing 150000
pounds slips into the place beneath
the hammer. The hammer descends
gently to see if the block is in place
the men draw back and now- blow on
blow the powtlful hammer comes
down on the glowing mass of steel.
The ground shakes beneath the weight
and it seems as if the steel must fly
apart from the tremendous pressure
but many blows are necessary to give
it the required toughness. Several
times it is put into a large oven near
at hand to be warmed. and again
beaten until it is at last of the required
length and thickness.
Then begins the boring of this huge
steel ingot to make it a cannon
Powerful knives set to work and cut
the hole in the center. It is then
hardened with oil and when cold re-
enforcing rings of metal are fixed on
the cold barrel while they are hot so
that in cooling they contract and exert
a tremendous pressure ton the cannon.
Then comes the "rifling” by knives
revolving and working away with oil
as they cut the ridges which so in-
crease the effectiveness of the weapon.
It Is mounted on Its carriage and tak-
en to the proving grounds where
it is tested thoroughly before being
delivered to its owner. All kinds and
sizes of cannon are made from small
rapid-fire guns of an inch in diamet-
er to the monster 12-lnch guns that fire
a missile that weighs tweney-one hund-
red-weight.
Almost every country buys some of
its cannon from Krupp except France
to which government he refuses to sell
since the war with Germany. The
reason for the tremendous demand for
Krupp guns is that they are the best in
quality and effectiveness in the world.

ASTRONOMY.
Facts And Figures About the Worlds
That Wheel Above Us.
If one fancies he is an individual of
great consequence he should study
astronomy. If he holds a high office
or has great possession. or thinks
himself exceedingly wise let hlxt
ramble for a few weeks among the
teeming worlds wtiich swing through
the field of apace and he will have his
modesty restored. The ancients be-
lieved the earth to be the center of
the universe around which the sun
moon and stars revolved. This was
the theory thousands of years after
astronomy became a science but the
progress of fifty centuries —and such
progress as the Egyptian sages never
dreamed of—tias failed to disclose the
body which forms the center of the
universe. We have determined how-
ever that the earth is not the center
The sun is known to be the center
of our solar system but this solar sys-
tem is only a small part of the known
universe of matter. One may gain
some idea of the magnitude of the
universe by the plan adopted by Pro-
fessor Newcomb of comparing the
earth’s orbit to a lady’s finger ring.
The orbit of the earth it may be well
to observe is of such vast extent that
a railway train traveling at sixty
miles an hour without stopping would
require some twelve hundred years to
pass around it. that is to traverse the
regions through which the earth moves
in a single year. Representing this
circle by a lady’s ring the nearest fix-
ed star would be about a mile and a
half away. A few more would be
from three to twenty miles but the
great body of stars visible to the
naked eye wmld be a distance as
great as from the Atlantic to the Mis-
sissippi River always bearing in mind
that our scale of measurement is. the
earth’s orbit represented by a lady’s
ring.
For many years scientists disagreed
as to whether the sun actually moved
through space but this point is now
well settled. experiments having
shown that the whole system is flying
through space at the rate of three
hundred million miles a year. The
earth goes in a circle around the sun
but the sun and the solar system seem
to be traveling in a straight line as
are all the stars. Whether they have
orbits of such vast extent that we can
not discover the curve in their direc-
tion is a question but this is probably
the case. If however the bodies are
moving in a straight line then. In the
course of time (or for us mortals
eternity) the bodies would be so sep-
arated that they would become invis-
ible to the inhabitants of other bodies
and therefore the sky would become
a black chasm instead of a panorama
of shining stars.
The region of the heavens known as
the "Milky Way” constitutes about
1000000 of separate stars. Each of
these stars is probably a sun like our
own many of them vastly larger each
having a solar system revolving about
is such as that of which the earth is a
member. The distance of these stars
from one another may be judged when
it is known that our own sun belongs
to this great field of stars. Therefore
the distance between them may fie
presumed to be the same as between
the sun and the nearest stars indi-
cated above.
In the popular mind the planets are
confused with the stars and indeed
they do resemble them to some ex-
tent. We must remember however
that the planets are few in number—-
only eight or nine—that tlyy are com-
paratively close and 'are of iinsig-
nificent size by comparison. Whether
any of these bodies are inhabited is
purely a matter of speculation: pre-
sumably they are have been or will
be. Some bodies like the moon have
passed through the habitable stage
and are now without air water or ani-
mal or vegetable life. It has been said
tha.t nothing ever happens on ths
moon. The surface of the sun seems
to be as a rule smooth and serene
but there are spots where eruptions
are in progress and flames shoot up to
the distance of thousands of miles from
chasms in (which the earth might be
swallowed up without being noticed.
The question of great moment to human
beings of a future time may be the
source of LNe heat which makes life pos-
sible on our planet. If we were depriv
ed of the heat of the sun no life could
exist on earth for more than a few
weeks. We observe that in our geolo-
gical history and at a not remote date
the surface of the northern part oC the
United State was discovered with a
sheet of ice one or tw omiles in thick-
ness. What the cause of this ice age
was. and whether it will recur are
questions which interest us in a specu-
lative way but the lapse of time re-
quired to produce these changes forbids
us to have any personal interest in the
matter. The sun is suppos’d t« be
growing smaller and its contraction
constantly generates the beat which
it so lavishly radiates to the earth and
other planets. This is the old theory
and perhaps the best in regard to the
source of the sun's hdat. When we
know the size of a body and the quan-
tity of matter it contains we can cal-
culate exactly how much it contracts in
order to generate a given amount of
heat. This means that the sun’s heat
must constantly grow leas. However
the mass of the sun is so great that its
diminution will not be noticeable and
quite eccurate observations in various
countries for three hundred years do
not show any chhn'ge Jn climate which
can be attributed to the variation in
the amount of heat received from the
sun.

COMMERCIAL EXPANSION.
Cheering Outlook fur American Elec-
trical Goods In the Orient.
Prof. F. B. Crocker who has just re-
turned from a trip around the world
makes note of the cheering outlook
for American electrical goods in the
far east. He considers that the Unit-
ed States have a better opportunity
to extend their trade in that portion
of the globe than any other country
even including England and Germany.
The reason of this is two-fold: Amer-
ica is much nearer by sea than those
countries are to China. Japan or the
Philippines and already large quanti-
ties of electrical apartus are being
exported to England so this country
is in an advantageous position for
competing with England in a market
foreign to both. Americans them-
selves. as a people have not yet real-
ized adequately their opportunities in
this field. One point which has al-
ready been clearly established in
the competition with the products of
other countries is that in the quanti-
ty and quality of electrical appartus
America leads the world. The Japan-
ese who are a very wide-awaks na-
tion have already recognized this;
but in China and India where the
English influence is much stronger
than American the assumption is often
made that England must be the best
place to obtain almost anything in-
cluding electrical goods. What par-
ticularly struck Professor Crocker
was the fact that in the Chinese and
Indian cities visited by him. electrical
plants (were being largely installed or
had been contracted for employing
English machinery: but when a few
weeks later ho reached England he
was astonished at the large number
of installations that were being made
with American apparatus. There are
few quarters of the world where elec-
tric light ds more desirable than in
fndia; where also the electric fan
is rapidly supplanting the time-honor-
ed punkah. The use of the telegraph
and telephone is also extending in
the Orient the very natural indispo-
sition of dwellers in hot countries to
walk even the shortest distance being
a powerful influence in the utilization
of these appliances. These are all
important facts which Mr. Crocker
commends to the notice of American
manufacturers of electrical goods.
.Another valuable hdnt given by Prof.
“Crocker is that the way in which the
goods are packed makes a great dif-
ference in their marketability in the
east. American Arms have been ac-
cused of much independence and care-
lessness in this particular to their ae-
cided disadvantage; but the Germans
avoid this mistake the
whims of their customers and this is
often the secret of their securing or-
ders when American agents fail.
THE BEAUTIFUL SAPPHIRE.
Country Reached Via the Southern
Railway.
One of the most picturesque and de-
lightful sections of North Carolina is
what is known as the Sapphire coun-
try. This section is located near Bre-
vard N. C. at an average altitude of
3000 feet and abounds in many beau-
tiful streams and grand water falls.
Of the many attractive features
perhaps one of the most interesting
and picturesque points are Fairfield
and Samphire lakes. No where else in
the south at this altitude are there
such bodies of water. There are tow-
ering cliffs rising abruptly for a thou-
sand feet from their shores and cas-
cades of rare beauty falling directly
into the lakes from the lofty table
land surrounding.
On account of the elevation of this
section it is very healthy and partic-
ularly adapted to those troubled with
hay-fever being also free from all ma-
laria or other diseases. A record of
the temperature kept at Sapphire for
four years shows an average of 69 de-
grees for the entire summer.
Sapphire Inn Fairfield Inn and the
Lodge afford excellent accommoda-
tions for guests.

HOW TA PE WORMS GROW.
Two Kinds of Tapeworms Most
'ommonly Found In Human Be-
Ings Come From Cattle and
Hogs and May be Large-
ly Prevented by Eating
Only Well Done
Meats.
There are tnany species of that heart-
less robber .the tapeworm but the two
most common as human parasites are
the beef tapeworm and the pork tape-
worm. so called from the animals they
inhabit.
The beef tapeworm or "taenia sagin-
ata” varies from 10 to 35 feet in
length and is more then an inch wide
at the widest place. The body con-
nists of a head followed by a chain of
segments. The head one-fifth of an
inch wide possesses four muscular
pouches or "suckers" by means of
which it clings to the wall of an inter-
line.
The life history of this tapeworm is
very strange. When the eggs escape
from the body they possess a hard shell
and can live for some time. If one of
these eggs is taken In with the grass
or fodder eaten by cattle the egg will
develop. If not it dies. Thus there
is only one chance in 10.000 that a
tapeworm egg develops. When the egg
comes into the cow’s stomach the hard
shell Is destroyed and the little worm
ccntained is set free. It Immediately
bores through the wall of the stomach
or intestiine. and finds IL* way into
muscles or some organ of the animal.
Here it remains stationary and grows
larger until it becomes one-third of
an inch kng. Finally it stops grow-
ing and forms a shell around itself. In
this stage it is called a bladder worm
because its < l>ody looks Ilk a sack with
the heart inclosed. When these blad-
der worms are present in large num-
ders the meat is called "measley beef.
If the lieef which contained the blad-
der worm beaten by man. the worm
will be released by the digestion of
the meat and will be set free in the
stomach or small Intestine. By means
of its four suckers It fastens itself to
the wall of the intestine anti begins to
grow. It grows with wonderful rap-
idity. forming 10 or more segments
and increasing if* length three inches
daily.
When we examine the structure of
a tapeworm we find that It his no trace
of a digestive system. It Is not hard
to see* the reason why. The tape-
worm simply waits until food is di-
gested by the stomach and small in-
testine and then absorlm it through
its skin. Man not only furnishes it
lodging and food but also digests the
food. The tapeworm is dangerous for
this reason. The unfortunate host
simply starves because his food is
stolen. in addition the presence of
the worm causes irritation in the in-
The beef tapeworm Is becoming
numerous. In France from 1861 to
1865 there was <uly one man infected
out of 5000. From 1886 to 1899 there
were 75 in 5000. There is probably a
good increase in this United States al-
so. which can be traced to this rea-
son: Rare done beef is increasing in
favor and consequently the lieef tape-
worm is becoming more common. Ine
only wav you can be mire of not be-
ing' infected is to take your steak
well done. The danger from these
parasites is so great that every great
packing house has the meat examined
before it is used by a government of-
ficial belonging to the Bureau of Ant
mal Industry. ••
The pork tapeworm taenia solium.
Is rare in the United States.
we take our pork well done. It dif-
fers from the lieef tapeworm «n hav-
ing a double ring of hodks. in addi-
tion to the four suckers. ltB . bl f “^ r
worm stage forms in hogs and. there-
fore infection comes from eating pork.
It is more dangerous than the be-f
tapeworm because its eggs may de-
velop in a man directly without
to another animal. In such a ease the
worm leaving the egg borm through
the walls of the stomach of man just
as it would through 'that of a pig and
thus cause inflammation and serious
trouble by nenetrating important or-
gaiw.
Well done meats prevent tapeworms.
