Day after day , week after week and jear
after > car , day and night , the people of
this city have been accustomed to see the
smoke pouring out of the tall stacks of the
smelters situated on the bank of the river.
Comparatively few of the thousands of people
ple who live In the sight of them have ever
visited the works or even think of the
small army of men who toll there , or even
bestow more than a casual thought upon
the great Industry conducted within the
grimy buildings , unless It Is to cough and
make some unpleasant remark when the
arsenic gases from the ores being treated
almost strangle jou when the wind blows
them over the city. At present there aie
about 000 mun etnplo > cd there , Keeping the
fires going night and day
It Is not the cleanest place In the world
to Mslt , even with the light of dai to guldr
ono and keep one out of thu dlit , but should
a night tilp bo taken It would be advisable
to leave aft all easllj soiled garments or
any which a little of the grime would serl
ously damage H is a fascinating sight to
go through any largo manufacturing plant
and wateh the transition of the raw ma
terial Into the finished pioduct , but In this
case It Is partlculailj so. There come to
the smelter carloads of what to the casual
obbcrver is only comparatively valueless
stone and there come out shining bars of
silver , gold , copper and lead , and In addi
tion to that a considerable portion of the
eoppcr pioduccd Is converted Into sulphate
of copper , or , ns It Is commonly culled ,
copperas.
At night the great jaid , covered with Its
acres of low , dirty buildings , only partially
lighted up with electric lights , Its toweling
chimneys from which como volumes of
hinoke and no\lous gases , the occasional
glaio of nn open furnace door , and the hum
of the gicat bloweis which lead Into the
furnaces Is a forbidding looking place.
ROASTED SIX HOURS.
The ore first comes to the blast furnace ,
where , In the process of smelting , the rough
est and most easily disposed of portions of
the refuse matter It contains arc eliminated
The product which comes from here Is
ground up Into powder and goes to the
loastcis. These are long scries of ovens
designed to eliminate the sulphur. The
powder Is first put Into the oven farthest
removed from the fire and gradually worked
down until It is subjected to heat enough to
melt It , fioin v.here It is drawn off and cast
Into hal oval-shaped pieces as large as can be
conveniently handled. This process occupies
six hours. There Is ono large building de
voted to these i casting ovens. Only dimly
lighted , the glaio which comes from an oc-
caslonallj opened furnace door throws sharp
shadows of the dozens of brawny fitemcn
who feed the never-satisfied appetite for
coal.
During the next pioccss practically all of.
the worthless material Is taken out. The
ciude copper is cabt into small Ingots which
aio to bo again refined , the lead and all of
the precious metals contained In the ore are
cast into another ingot vvhleh to all ap
pearances Is lead , the bar giving no indica
tion to the ordinary observer of the mere
valuable portion of the contents , nhllo the
blag runs out at still another place and is
carted off It such a thing as a comfortable
place can be found aiound furnaces which
contain fires hot enough to melt the rrost
icfractory of metals , this department Is the
place. It Is by far the least dirty end the
heat of the furnace Is tempered by currents
of water which are constantly kept running
around the furnace.
With all the rougher Impurities removed
the metal now goes to the refining dcpait-
mcnt. The processes here are much more
interesting and require a greater amount of
skill. Ihe metal is first put into huge
kettles which hold two carloads , or SOO
bars , ot the crude bullion. This Is what
Is termed the cookers , and under the Intense
heat the antimony and mobt all of the
Impurities are removed , leaving a product
which Is practically pure lead , silver pnd
gold. Prom here , without being allowed to
cool. It goes to the large kettles In which
the lead Is separated from the more valuable
metals , but to do so another one must bo
added ? lnc. TMs unites with the more
pieclous met"s ! and forms a lighter com
pound , which rises to the top and is skimmed
oft Like the product of the dairy 'hese
skimmings arc the cream of the valueless
locking stone , and arc handled with the
guatost care that none of it goes to waste
The lead Is drawn oft from the bottom of
the kettles and cast Into bars known as the
pig lead of commerce , and with vvhleh all
are familiar
LIKE THE INFERNAL REGIONS.
The succeeding process , while an InterestIng -
Ing one , Is not overly pleasant to watch on
account of the disagreeable fumes which
come from the furnaces. H Is what Is
known as the cupel room and here the zinc
which vvob Introduced In the previous process
Is eliminated The metal is put into cupels
and subjected to such an intense heat that
the zinc , being volatile , Is converted into
gas , and passing Into a condciiber , is re
converted Into zinc , while the valuable
metal remains In the shape of a small but
ton In the bottom of the cupel. This room
at night fmulshes a strong reminder oT the
Infernal regions. Out of the mouth of the
cupels shoot flames alternately , orange ,
green and red , and at times presenting
stieaks of all three colors , while the power
ful odors of the zinc gases are stifling to one
unaccustomed to them and It Is doubtful 11
ono would over become sufficiently familiar
with thc-in to ically relish the odor.
In the shadow of the great stacks and
furnaces , the unearthly flames playlny
aiound the openings , and the army of work
men going about their bilslness , never
deigning to speak to you or to even notice
jour prcbcnec , away off in the darkness
from where , you know not , eomo the hum
of the great blowers and the din of tin
bledges of workmen bieaklng up the Ingote
east at one furnace that they may bo meltcil
In another , combine to lend a vvelrdness tc
the scene which makes stiango fecllngc
creep over one. In the bcml-darknebs
bmoke-begrlmcd workmen , moving hither
and thither , btlrrlng up the fires , and from
tlmo to tlmo putting In bars of metal , give
on added reminder of the regions presided
over by uatan But they aio not Imps of
the prince of Inferno Just flesh and blood
mt > n tolling for their dally bread Von
wish you vvero out of there Into the open
air , whore you can breathe In comfort once
more and away from the unearthly sights
and bounds , but for all that there Is e
strange fascination about It which compels
you to hesitate and stop for 0110 more look ,
Prom hero the product goes to another
building to undergo the final process , the
separation of the gold and silver Thlt
done , It Is rant Into Bmull Ingots , carefully
weighed on delicate scales , and the product
Is ready for all of the various ut > es to which
the precious metals are put
Some Idea of the care that la taken tc
preserve everything ofuluo eon bo formed
from the fact that the smoke and gases
from the various furnaces are passed through
a low tunnel-like structure l.COO feet In
length , In which the fine paitlcles which
have passed off In a gaseous form are set
tled , and once in three months these are
carefully collected and put through the pro
cess of refining to extract what of value
they contain
Out Into the open air again you toke a
deep breath , look back over the gloomy yard
and buildings It contains , with Its lights
shining hero and there , and when it Is all
over you just begin to realize the vast ness
of the Industry which you have just seen ,
