The Process as Carried Out at the Mint. From the Philadelphia Times. In ntaklnK the llttlo pieces of silver money commonly called dimes the sil ver bullion Is first molted und run In to bars that welb'h two pounds eaih. Theso bars ate then run between great rollers and nro thus flatteneJ Into strips of tho thickness required for diuie-maklut;- The sttlps. after having been tteated with a Kind of tallow pioparatlon to keep them from being scratched aro put through a machine that cuts them Into tho pioper size. Tho pieces thus prepared aro put Into tho feeder of the Bush" before tho students of the Drew printing presses and they go to tho die at the rate of 6,000 an hour, or 100 a minute. The printing dies aro ponderous things nnd tho smooth pieces of sil ver, when pressed between them, aro slightly expanded. Hero they receive the letters and figures designed for them, have their edges Corrugated, nnd are finished. The finished dimes arc dropped by the machine Into a receiver, and are taken charge of by tho counter. Th machine used by him Is simply a tray having raised edges extending across Its surface, at such a distance npuit that a dime fits exactly between them. To fill the spaces on the tiav Just 1,250 dhnes are required. On to thin tray the dimes from the receiver are poured, tho tray Is rapidly shaken by the counter and tho dimes fettle down until all the spaces between the raised edges ate filled. The counter then brushes th sur plus dimes back Into tho receiver, empties tho contents of his tray into a box, and Is ready for more money I from the receiver; so ho continues his Matinees Daily.
