GEMS GATHEKED BT rEOFESSOR BLAKE
The Phipps scientific collection, purchased
with the JIO.OOO donation from Henry
Phipps, Jr., is coming into the Allegheny
Carnegie Library at the rate of about 1,000
volumes a month. Over2.000 volumes have
already been received, 1,000 of which are
known as the Blake library, being collected
by the late Francis Blake, the well-known
Pittsburz chemist. It is the most valuable
chemical library in this part of the country,
and was the collection of a life
time. It is, of course, of interest to few
but scientific men and students, but as the
books called for by the average reader are
comparatively few in number and have al
ready been secured, the collection from now
on will be principally of books of refer
ence. Among the valuable works in the Blake
collection is Dinzler's. Polytechnical
Journal complete, something very hard to
get, and especially valuable to patent
solicitors. Accompanying it are 150 patent
specifications in pamphlets, comprising
3,600 different papers. They were origin
ally sold by the Patent Office at about 25
cents apiece and were preserved by Prof.
Blake. There are very few such collections
and their value will increase with time.
Wonders From the Blake Library.
Other works issued by the Government
and collected by Prof. Blake are full geo
logical reports of the difierent States and
works on metallurgy. Besides these there
are found pamphlets on various subjects of
little value separately, but made almost in
valuable by careful indexing by Mr.
Blake.
The oldest book in the librarv is found in
this collection. It is printed in black letter
German type, ana was published in
1557 by Gerome Froben at Basel,
Switzerland. The subject is mining.
Tom Bergkwerck is the author. The book
contains over 500 paces, folio, and is bound
with parchment back, beechwood sides and
metal clasp. The beechwood is about a
quarter of an inch thick and is the only
part that does not show the marks of age.
The type is about the size of great primer
and was evidently wood letter. As the
time it was published was only a little over
half a centurv after the art of printing was
discovered the book must have cost a
fortune. Every eijht or ten pages there
nre full-page illustrations of mining opera
tions'that in themselves tell the history of
the tools used in that day. The draughtsman
executed his work very cleverly, but had no
idea of perspective. A man in the distance
appears in the same size as a man near at
hand, and invariably human beings are rep- J
rescnim as uemg twice as large as iiorses.
Birds in n Blacksmith's Force.
One peculsarfeature is that every picture,
whether of a mine pit, a blacksmith shop or
a lurnaee, has a number of birds either fly
ing through the air. in cages er perched on a
roof or tree-top. In one drawing two doves
are shown, just above a chimney, but not
w ithtanding the belching smoke, they
are represented as having a permanent
claim on their perch. The men in the draw
ings all wear the hoods used by the monks
in that age, from which the conclusion could
be drawn th3t Ihe monks were the only per
sons at that time engaged in mining.
The only picture thht could be used in a
nineteenth century book is that of a black
smith shop. The tools are almost identical
with those used now, and reflect -sad 'dis
credit on the progress of the brawny smith.
The difierent parts of the bellows are let
tered and given names that are still in vogue.
The anvil shown is in daily use, and ham
mers and tongs look like the tools that are
Btill found in every shop.
In another cut the progress of different
forces used for power is shown. Comment
is made in the reading matter about what
great indentions have been made, and the
prediction made that it is possible that
still more wonderful things may be dis
covered. The means of producing power
illustrated are an old hand mill, a tread
mill run by goats, another run by men and
a wind mill. The explanation of the way
the different machines are worked is ex
plicit, and ends with a question about what
the future has in store for producing force.
Great Mines of Information.
Another book of almost equal curiosity
is a work on metals, published in 1561 by
George Bower. It is still considered author
ity. Other scientific works of great value
are complete files of the Englisli Mechanic,
Scientific American, including the rare olume
of 1847, -which was furnished by John
Brashear. Sature, London Enibi'tring, and
a complete set of the publications of the
London Linnean Society, which are valued
at 51,000. Among the popular
books on useful arts in the
Phipps collection are. "'Workshop
Receipts," books on book binding, paper
hanging, railway curves, metal workers, the
sugar beet industry, needle work, electricity,
bridges, telescopes, water works, fire
engines, canals and harbors, petroleum and
a big collection on architecture. The
selections have been made by John Walker,
"William L. Scaif and John Brashear,
assisted by Librarian Stevenson. The latter
was allowed to add some books on folk
lore, comparative religion and other sub
jects not within the purview of the cift It
will be tome time before the collection will
be catalogued. Librarian Stevenson thinks
that it will be a rich reference library on
scientific subjects and with the boots for
popular reading which are now open to the
public, the library after being ppen only a
Jew months, will be superior to many that
have been making collections for years.
CALIFORNIA,
The Country of Delightful 'Winters.
California is the most attractive and de
lightful section of the United States, if not
of the -world, and its many beautiful resorts
will be crowded vith the best families of
the East during the entire winter. It offers
to the hnestor the best open opportunity
for safe and large returns from its fruit
lands. It offers the kindest climate in the
world to the feeble and debilitated; and it is
reached in the most comfortable manner
over the Atchison, Topeka and Santa JTe
Railroad. Pullman vestibule sleeping cars
leave Chicago by this line every day iu the
year and go without cliange or transfer
through to San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Snu Dieno. This is a feature not offered by
any other line. 'Write to Charles T. Apple
