From the American Protectionist. ‘The manufacture of iron implements and the extraction of the metal from iron ore reaches back to the earliest record ot the race. The book of Genesis tells us that Tubal Cain was an “instructor of every artiticer in brass and iron.” Travelers have found iron in positions indicat- ing its use in many of the earlier structures of cities ancient of the east, There is hardly a country of the present day, however uncivilized, but that the people are skilled in the use of primitive iron-smeiting furnaces, and they pro- duce many articles for agricultural and house- hold purposes. It is well known that during the Roman oceupation of England many rich beds of iron ore were worked on an immense seale, while the rich deposits of debris and saders left by the wastefal habits of the in- vaders are being worked over again with profit to the present operators, ‘The chemicdl nature of fron and its combina- tiens are as universally known as it is widely distributed, entering largely into the coloring matter of human blood, and abounds in plants and minerals, and the red color of some earths and rocks is due to its presence; in tact, com- mon clay iscomposed of oxide of iron and a part from which ordinary alum is extracted. Iron and platina are the only metals that are being welded at red heat; the union en in the manufacture of is joitied to the main por- of the axe which is of iron.

Salm! Morse’s Preparations for the “Passion Play.” SOME OF ‘THE SCRIPTURAL SCENES TO BE PRE- SENTED—DRESSES AND PROPERTIES OF OKIEN- TAL SPLENDOR—A SYNOPSIS OF THE REMARK- ABLE PLAY. From the New York Star, the ‘Passion Piay” draws near, avisit to Pagsion hatl enables the observer to form some idea of the magnitude of the undertaking and the earnestuess with which Mr. Salmi Morse and his work, with a fervent hope of bringing everythinz to a successful consummation. On mounting the stairs of No. 180 24th street, where all tue business arrangemeuts are carried out, on the second floor, Mr. Morse is to be found located in spacious and comtortably furnished reoms, where he not only carries on his business, but also lives, in order that he may be always on the spot and thus able to control everything. On a Star reporter introducing himself to the author of the ‘Passion Play,” he was most cour- teously received, and despite the numerous in- terruptions from musicians, carpenters, singers, gasmen and contractors, all of whom wanted advice from the energetic entrepeneur, the fol- lowing interesting facts were gleaned. Passion hallis weil situated at Nos. 120, 131 and 133 West 23d street. It is a spacious building, reaching through the block to 2éth street. When finished, accordins to the plans, it will resemble a hall or chapel rather than a theater. The de orations will be plain, the gallery having panels in alto relievo, depicting scenes In the life of | our Saviour, the ceiling being also paneled with stained glass, throwing a colored radiance on the andience below. The lighting will be a! ranged by seven branched candelabra, fac-simi- les of those in the Tabernacle. The seating capabilities of the house will be about 1,600 peo- | ple. Exeelient arrangements are made in ca! of fire, there being twelve broad exiis openin from the sides of the auditorium as well as thos on 23d and 24th streets. The will be arranged as little like a heater as pc There will be no pros- nium, but merely a sort of frame in which to scenes, as ina picture. ‘The principal stage is 56 feet wide by 30 feet deep, and th [is a supplementary at the back deep by 20 feet wide, which will pe use: anee to the street scenes and the derod.” The orchestra will be sunk that the musicians will not fter the manner adopted euth.

Within the famous Convent of the an Temple, the Herodian diadem and scepter will be presented with accurate correct- ness. Mr. Salini Morse, the author. says that it will be substantially the same as that produced at San Franeisco, with slight alterations and ini provements, so as to bring it within a reason- of able time for production. It is totally different | from the Oberammergau version, being strictly Nstorical, and an endeavor to depict incidents | and in | in the life of Christ, reverently, correcti atrue religious spirit. Nothing will be don he says, to excite horror or to sliock the sensi tive nerves of the most fervent religionist. It will deal with the human attributes and the mission of Christ the Redeemer—not the Judy The Oberammergau play dealt with the villlany of Judas, and was melodramatic ; this is ess tially didactic. “T tried to write It in_epie style,” Mr. Morse added, “like Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost;’ but the description was so brilliant that it detracted from the characters. I therefore changed it to dramatic, in which style the whole Bible is written.” give a synopsis of the play?” it is as follows:” Act I—Presentatton in the Temple (Christ bless- ing little children.) Act II.—Massacre of the Innocents. Act IL—Death of John the Baptist. Act IV.—By the Brook of Kedron’ (Christ sur- rounded by lis disciples.) Act V.—Lord’s Last Supper (The Passion.) Act VIL—The Gabbatha, or the Pavement (Trial before Pontius Pilate.) “The arrangements cannot be completed be- fore January, as the undertaking was so enor- mous that it will be impossible to arrive at that completeness which I intended to attain, The performer will all be amateurs, except a few chorus leacs and marshals of crowds. Mr. Wannemacher, who takes the part of tne Naza- rene, is the only one whose name will appear on the program. No Injunetion 13 expected or feared; in fact it is considered that such a step would be a good advertisement. I have daily received heaps of letters from clergymen and others. of all denominations, with sugges- tions and good wishes. I have no fear of per- manent opposition, and I expect that all dim- culties will disappear immediately after the first performance.” The cost of placing the ‘Passion Play” on the stage in all its on eta will be over $150,000, It is not looked upon as a profitable speculation, and it will be surprising if it even Pays expenses, ———___+e+___ Self-Care While Nursing the Sick.
