[ "\n\n\"'''A Dark Knight: Pax Penguina'''\" is the first episode of the fourth season and 67th episode overall from the Fox series ''Gotham''. The show is itself based on the characters created by DC Comics set in the Batman mythology. This is the first episode with the new subtitle \"A Dark Knight\". The episode was written by executive producer John Stephens and directed by Danny Cannon. It was first broadcast on September 21, 2017. \n\nThe episode revolves around a period in which criminals now get \"licenses\" to commit crimes without getting arrested by the police, provided by Cobblepot in order to earn the support of the public to reduce crime, setting the city at historical lows. However, a gang of criminals challenge the new licenses' policy and decide to set at their own way, committing many heists to send a message to Cobblepot. The gang also makes use of Jonathan Crane's fear toxin. Gordon discovers the use of the gas and sets to find Jonathan. Meanwhile, Bruce continues his vigilantism in order to prepare himself when Ra's al Ghul arrives.\n\nThe episode received positive response, who praised the new character development for some characters.\n", "Bruce (David Mazouz) saves a couple from a pair of thugs after beating them. Bruce discovers that the thugs possess a license of misconduct. He walks away from the scene, not realizing Ra's al Ghul (Alexander Siddig) is watching him.\n\nElsewhere, a group of gunmen crash a wedding and begin to steal the guests' valuable objects. Zsasz (Anthony Carrigan) arrives, stating that they don't have Cobblepot's (Robin Lord Taylor) license authorization, a deal in which they will be allowed to commit crimes as long as they give half their values to him. Zsasz shoots the leader Merton (Michael Buscemi), cutting his finger and they flee. Meanwhile, Cobblepot manages to convince the newly appointed Mayor Burke (Larry Pine) to agree to his license union. Gordon (Ben McKenzie) arrives at a bar just when a thug is robbing, holding a license. Despite possessing it, Gordon stops the robbery and arrests him. Bruce tells Alfred (Sean Pertwee) his intention to stop Cobblepot's crime business.\n\nMerton and his partner Grady (Michael Maize) visit Arkham Asylum to meet with Jonathan Crane (Charlie Tahan), who is still traumatized after suffering the effects of the fear toxin. Throughout time, Jonathan's mind created a \"Boogeyman person\" that has been haunting him. Merton and Grady bribe the Warden (Damian Young) to release Jonathan, who leaves a drawing in the form of a scarecrow. They take him to his old home where his father left his experimental drugs. They force him to do more fear gas with the use of a scarecrow. The gang then uses the gas to do a bank heist, spraying the people with the gas in order to make the heist easier.\n\nInvestigating the heist, Gordon tells Bullock (Donal Logue) that the method is the same as Gerald Crane's and deduces that someone must have taken the formula from Jonathan. After interrogating the Warden, they go to Grady's apartment but are ambushed by him and Merton. Merton explains that they plan to send a message to Cobblepot regarding the licenses and they leave. Meanwhile, Selina (Camren Bicondova) and Tabitha (Jessica Lucas) attack a group of thugs. When returning to their apartment, Zsasz shows up, claiming that they should go to Cobblepot's club inauguration to get their licenses and forget everything between them. Selina is interested but Tabitha refuses and tells her to pack so they can find a new place.\n\nCobblepot gives a conference to inaugurate his new club, the Iceberg Lounge and shows the attendees Nygma's (Cory Michael Smith) frozen body as a hall exhibition. Gordon, using an advice from Bruce, visits him and taunts him that the gang does not fear him, prompting Cobblepot to set to catch the gang. The gang decides to attack the club's inauguration and have Jonathan make more toxins and then lock him in a closet with a scarecrow. He then begins to have a severe hallucination with the scarecrow, who seemingly comes to life. In the GCPD, Gordon is attacked by a group of cops that are loyal to Cobblepot's methods.\n\nIn the Iceberg Lounge, Bruce finds Selina on the rooftop and they discuss about what happened at the hospital when Bruce says sorry to Selina about apologising, just before Alfred takes him to the inauguration. The gang prepares to attack when Cobblepot and Zsasz catch them and announce to the public their intentions. This disgusts Ivy (Maggie Geha), who cuts the power and the gang attack, spraying Cobblepot with the fear toxin, making him hallucinate Nygma. The gang is knocked out but Grady manages to escape. The next day, Bruce retrieves the list of criminals with the licenses. However, he accidentally slips on a house where it's been robbed. He is then caught without the mask by the GCPD. Grady returns to Crane's house to get more toxin from Jonathan. However, he discovers Jonathan has adopted a new persona, naming himself \"The Scarecrow\" and sprays Grady with fear gas.\n", "===Development===\nThe show was officially renewed by Fox for a fourth season on May 10, 2017. Just like the second and third seasons, the fourth season will also carry a new subtitle for the first half of the season: ''A Dark Knight''.\n\nIn June 2017, John Stephens announced that the first episode of the season would be titled \"Pax Penguina\" and was to be written by Stephens and directed by Danny Cannon. The title \"Pax Penguina\" is a play on the Latin phrase \"Pax Romana\", meaning \"Roman peace\".\n\n===Writing===\nRegarding Bruce's beginning of vigilantism, McKenzie explained that \"We are definitely leaning into Bruce, having learned some of the skills to be a vigilante, now actually attempting it. Now, we have a long, long way to go before he can realistically be Batman, so there will be many stumbles and falls – and regressions back to being a kid at times – but Gordon will eventually become aware of what he's doing and that will bring them against each other.\" David Mazouz also added, \"Bruce really is taking on this vigilante persona and all the things that go along with that. Whether it be creating another persona, a public persona, that's also definitely going to be a major part of Bruce's journey this year. His relationship as this other person. Batman is coming. Absolutely.\" Mazouz also stated that he was worried the writers could pull back some aspects from Batman, deeming it \"too fast\" but he was glad it didn't stop. He said that Bruce would take the \"Batman persona\" this season. Cannon also explained that Bruce will be seen \"as the emerging threat he is.\" Alexander Siddig stated that his character will seek to make Bruce his heir and will \"do anything he can to get his hands on him, to manipulate him into what Ra's wants him to be.\" He also claimed that the season is \"a season so far of extremes.\"\n\n===Casting===\nAs a concept McKenzie wished to explore, the episode brought back the actor Charlie Tahan as Jonathan Crane / Scarecrow, who portrayed the character on the first season episodes: \"The Fearsome Dr. Crane\" and \"The Scarecrow\". McKenzie explained: \"So we met his father Dr Crane in Season 1. So we've taken our time; we're gonna come back now to his son. You know, in circumstances probably not best described now, his son takes on his father's mantle and becomes the fully-realized Scarecrow. It's great. We're able to use this sort of fear toxin that Scarecrow is able to summon. We're completely unafraid — or perhaps afraid but we still persist–in expanding the universe and our capabilities.\"\n\nMorena Baccarin, Erin Richards, Chris Chalk, Drew Powell and Crystal Reed don't appear in the episode as their respective characters, with Baccarin and Chalk receiving credit only, while Richards, Powell and Reed were uncredited. In August 2017, it was announced that the guest cast for the episode would include Michael Buscemi as Merton, Larry Pine as Mayor Burke, Michael Maize as Grady Harris, Charlie Tahan as Jonathan Crane, Anthony Carrigan as Victor Zsasz, Damian Young as Warden Reed and Maggie Geha as Ivy Pepper.\n", "===Viewers===\nThe episode was watched by 3.21 million viewers with a 1.0/4 share among adults aged 18 to 49. These ratings were higher than any episode of the second part of the past season and it was a 6% increase in viewership from the previous episode, which was watched by 3.03 million viewers with a 0.9/4 in the 18-49 demographics but a 18% decrease from the previous season premiere, which was watched by 3.90 million viewers with a 1.3/4 in the 18-49 demographics. With these ratings, ''Gotham'' ranked second for the night as well as for Fox behind ''The Orville''.\n\nThe show was the 49th most watched show of the week.\n\n===Critical reviews===\n\n\n\"A Dark Knight: Pax Penguina\" received positive reviews from critics. Matt Fowler of IGN gave the episode a \"good\" 7.8 out of 10 and wrote in his verdict, \"''Gotham'' returned with a fun look at how much of the city's problem's could be solved with morally questionable outside-the-box thinking. It's up to the show now to convince me, basically, that Jim has a leg to stand on with regards to his objections of having a staggeringly low crime rate and a city at peace.\"\n\nNick Hogan of TV Overmind gave the episode a 4 star rating out of 5, writing \"Ultimately, ''Gotham'' is off to an interesting start. The pivot to a different style has its merits, but the long term benefits will have be fleshed out. Still, I enjoyed the episode immensely, and I'm glad that one of my favorite shows is back.\" Sydney Bucksbaum of ''The Hollywood Reporter'' wrote, \"The potential for chaos and destruction is truly terrifying. Thank goodness Jim Gordon isn't rolling over and letting Penguin run the city. If anyone can find and catch Crane, it's him. And it's interesting to note that this incarnation of the Scarecrow is much closer to the comic book version, despite it being Dr. Jonathan Crane's son and not the professor himself. Gotham is no longer just dealing in proto-villains.\" Dan Seitz from ''Uproxx'' wrote, \"Embracing the campiness that was always at the core of the show was something of a risk for Gotham. But it's paid off, especially now that the show is full of vigilantes and frozen villains in the middle of nightclubs. As the show's realized it can be, well, Goth ham, it's loosened up and started having fun.\"\n\nVinnie Mancuso of ''Collider'' wrote, \"Outside of a few rejected album reviews drunkenly sent to every music magazine in the country at 4 AM, I rarely get the chance to compare Fox's batshit Batman prequel ''Gotham'' to the music stylings of Taylor Swift. But the show's Season 4 premiere, titled 'Pax Penguina,' provided a surprisingly prescient opportunity to do just that. Much like Swift hinted at her transition from a sugar-laced pop-singer into something angrier and more prone to shop at Hot Topic by declaring the Old Taylor was dead, young Jonathan Crane announced that he, too, has officially become something darker. 'Jonathan Crane isn't here anymore,' he says at the episode's conclusion. 'It's just the Scarecrow.'\" Lisa Babick of ''TV Fanatic'' gave the series a 3.5 star rating out of 5, writing \"'Pax Penguina' was a bit of a rocky start to the season, but there are good storylines that show promise; Bruce's being the most of exciting of all. Will Baby Batman decide to take on Scarecrow, or will that be Jim's villain to catch? \" Robert Yanis, Jr. of ''Screenrant'' wrote, \"Seasons 2 and 3 may have introduced some thrilling villain origins, but aside from that, its narrative has felt jumbled and erratic. The show has long been fans' guiltiest pleasure, but Bruce's storyline this season could legitimize ''Gotham'' once and for all. For as much fun as Penguin and company are, the real reason fans tune in to a Batman prequel is to see the character's evolution. Now he has arrived: a dark knight.\" \n\nKayti Burt of ''Den of Geek'' wrote, \"It might seem like I am being a little harsh on this episode, which introduced some great new plot directions for this show, but, after last season, I know this show can do better! It has raised the bar for what makes a great episode of ''Gotham''.\" Laurence Mozafari of ''Digital Spy'' wrote, \"''Gotham'' season 4 has swooped onto screens, and as itty bitty Bruce Wayne continues his loooong transformation into the Batman, fans were treated to a new, acrobatic look at the young detective.\"\n", "\n", "* \n* \n\n\n\n\n\n" ]

Total transactions in 1904 came to $10.5 million, against $16.4 million in 1903.\nOn November 13, 1908, ''The New York Times'' reported that stock value in St. Louis banks and trusts companies had increased by $3,020,000 since October 31, due to a \"complete revival of confidence\" in the St. Louis Stock Exchange. The times stated that brokers related that it was the heaviest buying the city had seen in three years, leaving them \"almost unable to accommodate their patrons.\" Stock value and trading was for companies such as the Mercantile Trust Company, the Boatmen's Bank, the Mechanics' American National Bank, the National Bank of Commerce, and industrial and manufacturing stocks such as the American Car and Foundry Company. On November 13, the latter announced it would reopen its Detroit shops soon as a result on secured contracts.\n\n===Financial crisis of 1914===\nAfter closing for four months during a financial crisis on July 30, 1914, the president of the exchange board of directors announced on December 4, 1914, that the St. Louis Stock Exchange would open the following week. In a meeting on December 7, the governors of the exchange had a special meeting and voted to resume trading in stocks unanimously, with price restrictions and after assurances that bankers believed the financial situation had improved. The meeting noted 180 stocks made public, out of the 565 issues on the board. A statement from the exchange's Committee of Five asserted that the exchange would open again on Saturday, December 12, with hours resuming between 10 and 3 o'clock each day except Saturday, when dealings ended at noon. On the reopening, the ''Times'' reported that \"opening prices were steady and demand for high-grade securities good.\"\n\n===Market and policy changes===\nOn April 13, 1926, directors of the exchange voted to extend trading time from 75 minutes to two and a half hours, from 10 am to 12:30 pm except Saturday, \"thereby placing the local exchange on a parity with exchanges in other cities.\" The board also established stock lists of trading quotations.\n\nAs of early 1927, Harry S. Rein was chairman of the exchange. On January 12, 1927, he announced that in 1925, the exchange had seen stock sales totaling 591,966 shares, or $32,087,323. In 1926, it had fallen to a total of 382,856 shares, or $17,101,763 in value.\n\nOn March 26, 1929, the exchange saw a session close without an issue scoring a gain, as \"nine issues reached new lows\" for the year.\n\nOn April 5, 1938, the exchange elected J. Gates Williams as president to succeed president Ben F. Jacobs.\n\n===Proposed merger===\nOn August 30, 1948, the press reported that several brokers in multiple cities were discussing a large merger of several midwestern stock exchanges. The plan at that point included exchanges in Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, New Orleans, and St. Louis. With a projected volume of $350,000,000 a year in trading, it would make the proposed exchange the largest in the United States outside of New York. St. Louis Stock Exchange officers refused to talk to the press about the plan, and the exchange at that point had a normal business annually of $7,000,000. On May 26, the members of the exchange voted twenty-six to eight in favor of the merger. On June 10, 1949, ''The New York Times'' reported that the proposed merger had resulted in disagreemnt within St. Louis financial circles. A key anti-consolidation group was said to include the four companies whose stocks were most active on the local St. Louis exchange: Wagner Electric Company, Laclede Steel Company, F. Burkart Manufacturing Company, and Griesedieck-Western Brewery Company.\n\nOn June 27, 1949, the president of the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce, George C. Smith, said that the proposed September 1 merger between the St. Louis exchange with three exchanges would cause \"some grave injuries\" to the city. The banks also maintained that they might lose most of the exchange business to Chicago banks, where the new proposed exchange would be headquartered. a group opposing the merger sought a new ballot on the project, maintaining that the merger would omit from slower moving St. Louis stocks from the Chicago listings, leaving them to be sold over-the-counter in St. Louis.\n\nOn June 29, president of St. Louis exchange John A. Isaacs Jr. declared in letter to exchang members and all St. Louis banks that the merger was \"the only practicable means of providing a strong market for midwest companies,\" and a necessity. He noted that business in the exchange had been drying up, with much of the business moving east.\n\nMore protests were lodged in early July 1949, by four brokers in the firm: Paul Brown & Co, A. G. Edwards & Sons, Edward D. Jones & Co. and I. M. Simon & Co.. They said they \"deny the right of any majority of the members of the exchange here to dissolve.\" On July 14, 1949, the governing committee of the St. Louis Stock Exchange signed a formal contract to join the new Midwest exchange, overruling the four members firm who had recently voiced opposition. The official merger between the five midwest exchanges was set for September 15, 1949.\n\nOn June 29, 1949, St. Louis exchange president John A. Isaacs Jr. promoted the merger in a letter, and stated that recent lows in trading were \"not limited to St. Louis. The trend has been shared by other regional exchanges. After meeting (on the subject of a merger), it was concluded the only way to save an active exchange market for midwestern securities was to concentrate the trading on one large exchange.\"\n", " \n*St. Louis Mining and Stock Exchange\n*List of former stock exchanges in the Americas\n*List of stock exchange mergers in the Americas\n*Economy of St. Louis\n", "\n", "" ]

[ "'''Fragmentarium''' (Digital Research Laboratory for Medieval Manuscript Fragments) is an online database to collect and collate fragments of medieval manuscripts making them available to researchers, collectors and historians worldwide. It is an international collaboration of major libraries and collections including the British Library, Martin Schøyen Collection, Bavarian State Library, Harvard, Yale and the Vatican. It is based in Switzerland and the project's current director is Professor Christoph Flüeler from the University of Fribourg and the Virtual Manuscript Library, Switzerland.\nFlorus de Lyon fragment, Bibliothèque de Genève, Ms. lat. 16\n", "The Fragmentarium project was first proposed in October 2013 and the first planning meeting took place in Cologny in 2014. It was supported initially by representatives of 12 institutions, its goal being to study the field of manuscript fragment research and look at worldwide cataloguing standards. Fragmentarium was officially launched on 1 September, 2017, by the Medieval Institute of the University of Fribourg at Abbey Library of St. Gall in St. Gallen, Switzerland.\nHistorians and librarians are now able to upload images to the Fragmentarium where they will be made available for research and encouraged to publish images under a Creative Commons public domain license. The library currently operates as a closed system and will open up public resources gradually from 2018.\n", "Multispectral image of palimpsest fragments Or. 6581 with infrared (middle) and ultraviolet (right)\nEnhanced multispectral imaging of palimpsest fragments composite images\nFragmentarium follows an established Swiss codex digitisation system known as e-codices and aims to promote cooperative research and discussion between researchers and scholars from multiple institutions. As more fragments are uploaded it will be possible to reunite fragments which have become separated and compare analyses of similar manuscript pieces. Some fragments have been analysed using the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) to identify pigments, creating a unique 'fingerprint' to enable it to be matched to corresponding fragments elsewhere in the world and potentially track their journey with “the potential to learn more about trade routes, historic mining sites, and the regional use of pigments and ingredients”. Other fragments have been identified as 'recycled' into covers or bindings for later documents, a practice which was prevalent in the 15th to 17th century.

[ "\n\nThe 1908 U.S. Presidential election occurred in the backdrop of the Progressive achievements of U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt's second term as well as against the U.S. recovery following the Panic of 1907. In this election, Roosevelt's chosen successor, Republican William Howard Taft, ran in large part on Roosevelt's Progressive legacy and decisively defeated former Congressman and three-time Democratic U.S. Presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan.\n", "1896, 1900, and 1908 Democratic presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan.\nA political cartoon which portrays William Howard Taft as President Roosevelt's political heir.\nDuring his 1908 campaign, Bryan criticized U.S. House Speaker Joseph Gurney Cannon.\nA map of the 1908 U.S. Presidential election by county.\nBryan's ties with Charles Haskell ended up hurting him late in the campaign.\n\nAlthough he was previously the Democratic U.S. Presidential nominee in both 1896 and 1900 (losing to William McKinley both times), Alton Parker's defeat at the hands of President Roosevelt (who succeeded McKinley after his assassination) in 1904 gave William Jennings Bryan an opening to reassert his leadership in the Democratic Party as well as to compete for the 1908 Democratic presidential nomination. In addition, Bryan was helped by newspaper tycoon and 1904 contender William Randolph Hearst's loss in the 1905 New York mayoral election (something which hurt Hearst's chances to get the 1908 Democratic presidential nomination).\n\nBryan's most formidable challenger for the 1908 Democratic nomination was Minnesota Governor John Albert Johnson. Johnson's rags-to-riches story, honesty, reformist credentials, and ability to win in a heavily Republican U.S. state made him very popular within the Democratic Party. Ultimately, though, Johnson was unable to overcome Bryan's popularity within the Democratic Party. By the end of June 1908, Bryan was able to win the necessary two-thirds of the delegates which were required for him to win the Democratic presidential nomination for that year. At the 1908 Democratic National Convention, Johnson (who had no chance at the Democratic nomination by that point in time) released his delegates to Bryan, helping Bryan to win the Democratic nomination on the first ballot with 892.5 delegates to 105.5 delegates for various other (favorite son) candidates. For Bryan's vice presidential running mate, the convention delegates selected John W. Kern, a former state senator (1893-1897) and two-time gubernatorial candidate (and later U.S. Senator) from Indiana. In response to Bryan's and Kern's nomination, ''The New York Times'' disparagingly pointed out that the Democratic national ticket was consistent because “a man twice defeated for the Presidency was at the head of it, and a man twice defeated for governor of his state in 1900 and 1904 was at the tail of it.”\n\nDuring the campaign, the fact that this was Bryan's third Democratic presidential nomination was mocked by Republicans. Specifically, Republicans told voters to \"vote for Taft now\" because they could \"vote for Bryan anytime.\"\n", "The 1908 Democratic platform criticized corporate power at the expense of the people as well as the increased number of federal officeholders and expenditures—“the heedless waste of the people’s money”—and demanded “the strictest economy in every department compatible with frugal and efficient administration.” In addition, the Democrats condemned the “arbitrary power” of the Republican U.S. House Speaker Joseph Gurney Cannon (of Illinois) as well as the use of patronage by President Roosevelt to nominate “one of his Cabinet officers” (Taft) as his successor.\n\nDue to Bryan's efforts, a plank in the 1908 Democratic platform called for federal legislation requiring the publication of campaign contributions, limiting the amount that individuals could donate, and banning contributions from business corporations (via their officers), the last punishable by imprisonment. The platform reiterated the party’s longstanding support of tariff reform and welcomed Republicans’ “tardy recognition of the righteousness of the Democratic position….” Labeling private monopoly “indefensible and intolerable,” the trusts plank advocated three laws: banning directors from sitting on the board of more than one competing business, federal licensing of any corporation before it could control 25% of a market and prohibiting control of over 50% market-share of an American-consumed product, and requiring corporations to sell to all purchasers on the same terms (except for transportation costs).\n\nAt Bryan’s urging, his previous endorsement of government ownership of railroads was omitted from the platform. However, the 1908 Democratic platform nevertheless advocated regulatory authority for the Interstate Commerce Commission, emergency currency “issued and controlled by the Federal Government,” and an income tax on individuals and corporations. Accepting most of the demands of Samuel Gompers, the President of the American Federation of Labor, the Democrats criticized the unfair use of injunctions against striking workers, affirmed the right of labor to organize and not be charged with restraining trade, and favored an eight-hour workday for federal employees, a general employers’ liability law, and a separate Department of Labor. Also, the Democrats advocated in support of a homestead law for Hawaii, territorial governments for Alaska and Puerto Rico, independence for the Philippines once a stable government was established, and a ban on Asian immigration to the United States.\n\nUnlike in 1896 and 1900, Bryan did not advocate in favor of free silver in 1908, believing this issue to be dead at this point in time. Rather, Bryan focused on labor issues, trusts, campaign finance reform, and imperialism during his 1908 U.S. Presidential campaign. As in 1896 and 1900, Bryan ran an active and energetic campaign and delivered speeches throughout the North and West. Of the 60 days that Bryan spent on the campaign trail, half were spent in the Midwest, 10 in New York, 6 in other Eastern states, and the remaining 14 days in the Plains States and Colorado. Meanwhile, vice-presidential nominee Kern focused on campaigning in the South. As in 1896 and 1900, Bryan attracted large crowds and gave numerous speeches each day (including a record-breaking 30). Due to his older age, Bryan became more exhausted as a result of giving so many speeches than he was back in 1896 and 1900. While he expected to lose New England and the West Coast, Bryan expected to hold the South and Rocky Mountain States (as he did in both 1896 and 1900).\n\nLate in the campaign, Bryan was hurt by his ties with Democratic National Committee treasurer and Oklahoma Governor Charles Haskell. William Randolph Hearst revealed that both Haskell and Ohio Republican U.S. Senator Joseph Foraker accepting bribes in an attempt to stop the antitrust suit against the Standard Oil Company. While Taft quickly cut off all of his ties with Senator Foraker, Bryan refused to do the same with Governor Haskell due to his refusal to believe the charges against Haskell. In response, outgoing U.S. President Roosevelt called Bryan's association with and support of Haskell a “scandal and disgrace.”\n", "Taft defeated Bryan by a two-to-one (321 to 162) margin in the Electoral College and by a 52% to 43.5% margin in the popular vote. Bryan did worse in 1908 than he did in both 1896 and 1900, carrying only the South, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Nevada (Bryan also won 6 of 8 electors in Maryland while losing the state to Taft by less than 0.30%). Bryan won no crucial states and only won two large cities, Kansas City and New Orleans. Meanwhile, Taft did well in the more urban Northeast, the Midwest, and the Pacific Coast.\n\nWhile Bryan lost the 1908 U.S. Presidential election, Democrats picked up eight seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, gained strength in most state legislatures, and won Governorships in five states that Taft carried that year. In addition to this, in spite of his 1908 loss, many of Bryan's proposed reforms from 1908 eventually become law, such as the direct election of senators (1913), a federal income tax (1913), and the government guarantee of bank deposits (1933).\n", "\n\n" ]

[ "\nThe period of 1859 to 1957 in Haitian history covers an era of political struggles, the period of American occupation and multiple coups and elections until the Duvaliers seized control of the country in 1957. \n\n\n", "\n===Building a republic and failure===\nFabre Geffrard's government has held office until 1867, and he encouraged a successful policy of national reconciliation. In 1860, he reached an agreement with the Vatican, reintroducing official Roman Catholic institutions, including schools, to the nation. In 1867 an attempt was made to establish a constitutional government, but successive presidents Sylvain Salnave and Nissage Saget were overthrown in 1869 and 1874 respectively. A more workable constitution was introduced under Michel Domingue in 1874, leading to a long period of democratic peace and development for Haiti. The debt to France was finally repaid in 1879, and Michel Domingue's government peacefully transferred power to Lysius Salomon, one of Haiti's abler leaders. Monetary reform and a cultural renaissance ensued with a flowering of Haitian art. The final two decades of the 19th century were also marked by the development of a Haitian intellectual culture. Major works of history were published in 1847 and 1865. Haitian intellectuals, led by Louis-Joseph Janvier and Anténor Firmin, engaged in a war of letters against a tide of racism and Social Darwinism that emerged during this period.\n\nThe Constitution of 1867 saw peaceful and progressive transitions in government that did much to improve the economy and stability of the Haitian nation and the condition of its people. Constitutional government restored the faith of the Haitian people in legal institutions. The development of industrial sugar and rum industries near Port-au-Prince made Haiti, for a while, a model for economic growth in Latin American countries.\nThis period of relative stability and prosperity ended in 1911, when revolution broke out and the country slid once again into disorder and debt.\n\nFrom 1911 to 1915, there were six different presidents, each of whom was killed or forced into exile. The revolutionary armies were formed by ''cacos'', peasant brigands from the mountains of the north, along the porous Dominican border, who were enlisted by rival political factions with promises of money to be paid after a successful revolution and an opportunity to plunder. The United States was particularly apprehensive about the role of the German community in Haiti (approximately 200 in 1910), who wielded a disproportionate amount of economic power. Germans controlled about 80% of the country's international commerce; they also owned and operated utilities in Cap Haïtien and Port-au-Prince, the main wharf and a tramway in the capital, and a railroad serving the Plaine de Cul-du-Sac.\n\nThe German community proved more willing to integrate into Haitian society than any other group of white foreigners, including the French. A number married into the nation's most prominent mulatto families, bypassing the constitutional prohibition against foreign land-ownership. They also served as the principal financiers of the nation's innumerable revolutions, floating innumerable loans-at high interest rates-to competing political factions. In an effort to limit German influence, in 1910–11, the US State Department backed a consortium of American investors, assembled by the National City Bank of New York, in acquiring control of the ''Banque Nationale d'Haïti'', the nation's only commercial bank and the government treasury.\n\nIn February 1915, Vilbrun Guillaume Sam formed a dictatorship, but in July, facing a new revolt, whom he massacred 167 political opponents, and was lynched by a mob in Port-au-Prince.\n\n===United States occupation===\n\nIn 1915, Philippe Sudré Dartiguenave was appointed by US authorities to the Presidency of Haiti. Martial law was declared, and persisted until 1929. A treaty, which allowed the US government complete control over cabinet positions and Haiti's finances, was passed by the legislature in November 1915. The treaty also established the ''Gendarmerie d'Haïti'' (Haitian Constabulatory Force), Haiti's first professional military. Dartiguenave dissolved the legislature in 1917 after its members refused to approve a new constitution. A referendum subsequently approved the constitution, which allowed foreigners to own land, something which had been forbidden by Haitian law since independence in 1804.\n\nIt is confirmed that Philippe Sudré Dartiguenave was a homosexual male.\n\nThe US occupation was a costly period in terms of human life. A revolt by disgruntled citizens was put down in 1918, with an estimated 2,000 killed. White foreigners, many with deep racial prejudices, dominated public policy, which angered the historically dominant Mulattos. However, Haiti's infrastructure, including roads, telephone lines, and plumbing, were repaired. Lighthouses, schools, hospitals, and harbors were built. Louis Borno replaced Dartiguenave as president in 1922, after he was forced out of office. He ruled without a legislature until elections were permitted in 1930. This newly formed legislature elected Sténio Vincent, a mulatto, as president.\n\nBy 1930, Haiti had become a liability to the United States. A congressional inquiry, known as the Forbes Commission, exposed many human rights violations, and while it praised improvements in Haitian society, it criticized the exclusion of Haitians from positions of authority. By August 1932, with the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt as US President, American troops withdrew and authority was formally transferred to local police and army officials.\n\n===Post-occupation, World War II and collapse===\nVincent took advantage of the stability to gain dictatorial power. Vincent expanded his economic authority by referendum, and in 1935, he forced a new constitution through the legislature. This constitution gave him power to dissolve the legislature and reorganize the judiciary at will, as well as the power to appoint senators. He also brutally oppressed political opposition. \n\nRafael Leónidas Trujillo had come to power in 1930 in the neighboring Dominican Republic. In 1937, Trujillo attacked the border with Haiti, his forces killing an estimated 20,000 Haitians. This attack Vincent interpreted as an attempted coup against himself, and thus he purged the military of all officers suspected of disloyalty. Many of these later joined the Dominican military.\n\nIn 1941, Élie Lescot, a mulatto who was an experienced and competent government official, was elected as President. Despite high expectations, his tenure paralleled Vincent's in its brutality and marginalization of opposition. He declared war on the Axis powers during World War II, and used this as an excuse to censor the press and repress his opponents. Lescot also maintained a clandestine cooperation with Trujillo, which undermined his already-nonexistent popularity. In January 1946, after Lescot jailed editors of a Marxist newspaper, protests broke out among government workers, teachers, and business owners. Lescot resigned, and a military junta, the ''Comité Exécutif Militaire'' (Executive Military Committee), assumed power.\n\nHaiti elected a legislature in May 1946, and after two rounds of voting, Dumarsais Estimé, a black cabinet minister, was elected president. He operated under a new constitution which expanded schools, established rural farming cooperatives, and raised salaries of civil servants. These early successes, however, were undermined by his personal ambition, and his alienation of the military and elite led to a coup in 1950, which reinstalled the military junta. Direct elections, the first in Haiti's history, were held in October 1950, and Paul Magloire, an elite black Colonel in the military, was elected. Hurricane Hazel hit the island in 1954, which devastated the nation's infrastructure and economy. Hurricane relief was inadequately distributed and misspent, and Magloire jailed opponents and shut down newspapers. After refusing to step down after his term ended, a general strike shut down Port-au-Prince's economy, and Magloire fled, leaving the government in a state of chaos. When elections were finally organized, François Duvalier, a rural doctor, was elected, on a platform of activism on behalf of Haiti's poor. His opponent, however, Louis Déjoie, was a mulatto and the scion of a prominent family. Duvalier scored a decisive victory at the polls. His followers took two-thirds of the legislature's lower house and all of the seats in the Senate.\n", "*History of Haiti\n", "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" ]

[ "Molieri in 1946\n'''Lillian Molieri Bermúdez''' (18 January 1925 - 13 September 1980 in Managua) was a Nicaraguan actress and dancer. She was noted for her minor roles in Hollywood films and TV series between 1944 and 1957, though most of them went uncredited. She later became a dancer and dance instructor and was honored with the ''Monje de Oro'' in 1966 for her radio show.\n", "Lillian Molieri Bermúdez was born in Managua to Mélida Bermúdez and L. Arturo Molieri. Her father was the president of the Nicaraguan National Bank. Her family was of Italian descent, but had lived in Nicaragua for three generations prior to Molieri's birth. The oldest daughter in the family, she attended school at the Convento Notre Dame de Cion and then furthered her education at the Colegio de la Asuncion in Nicaragua. Completing her high school education, Molieri traveled in Europe learning French and Italian. After winning several beauty contests in Nicaragua in the early 1940s, she came to Los Angeles, where her brother Ronald was serving as Nicaragua’s Vice Consul, to improve her English and enrolled in university to study banking. She was discovered by Paramount while at university and offered her first movie role in 1944.\n", "Molieri in 1953\nHer first appearance was in ''The Princess and the Pirate'' (1944). In 1945, Molieri starred in Lambert Hillyer's western ''South of the Rio Grande'' for Monogram Pictures. She sang two songs in the film, appearing opposite Duncan Renaldo as the Cisco Kid. In John Cromwell's ''Anna and the King of Siam'' the following year she portrayed one of the wives of the King (Rex Harrison). She had a featured role in Paramount's ''People Are Funny''. In May, 1949, Molieri was married to Adolph Hartman, Jr., a descendant of one of the founders of Anaheim, California. \n\nBecause of typecasting, Molieri was often limited to roles where she played stereotypical parts as an exotic, foreign woman. She was often assigned bit parts, like in ''Valentino'', with Anthony Dexter. Dexter became her dancing partner and he and Molieri performed routines which toured from the Midwest to Miami. The duo mainly performed Spanish or South American dances, but also included tap and ballroom dancing in their repertoire. She also performed in several television roles, most noted was her appearance as \"Carlota Romero\", Ricky Ricardo's long-lost Cuban girlfriend in an episode of ''I Love Lucy''.\n\nIn 1955, Molieri appeared in \"The Great McGinty\" episode of ''Lux Video Theatre'', appearing opposite Nancy Gates and William Schallert. Her last film was ''The Three Runaways'' (1956) and then she left the United States to tour with her parents in Europe for the next three years, while her father served as a diplomat. In 1959, the family returned to Managua and Molieri instituted divorce proceedings to dissolve her marriage with the Catholic Church.

Walter Prideaux, John Square, Joseph Hingston, and Walter Prideaux junior. It was first opened in a house on the West side of Fore street nearly opposite the late Buttermarket, and on the North side of Millman's Lane which communicates with the West backlet. An excellent stone mansion however, with an appropriate room for this concern, having been erected by the junior partner on the East side of Fore Street Hill, facing the houses a little above the Quakers' meeting, the business was removed thither in 1808; and, the second partner being dead, but replaced by his son of the same Christian name, and the third removed to Plymouth, where he carries on a similar establishment, the notes of the present firm bear the designation of \"Prideaux, Square, and Prideaux,\" whose Loudon correspondents are messieurs Masterman, Peters, Mildred, & Co. No, 2. White-Hart Court, Gracechurch Street\"''.\n\nThus two separate banks were in existence: one at Kingsbridge (Prideaux, Square, and Prideaux) and another at Plymouth (Hingston & Prideaux)\n\n====Development====\nOn 31 October 1813 the banking partnership known as '''Prideaux, Square, Hingston and Prideaux''' of Kingsbridge in Devon (whose partners were Walter Prideaux (1741-1829) \"Senior\", John Square, Joseph Hingston and Walter Prideaux (1769-1855) \"Junior\" (son of Walter Prideaux (1741-1829) \"Senior\") was dissolved by mutual consent to allow for the retirement of Joseph Hingston (who as Hawkins relates above ''\"removed to Plymouth, where he carries on a similar establishment\"''), and was immediately reformed as '''Prideaux, Square and Prideaux'''. \n\nJoseph Hingston's new partner in the Plymouth bank was Walter Prideaux (d.1832), a cousin of the Kingsbridge bankers, a son of George Prideaux of Kingsbridge by his wife Anna Debell Cookworthy, and a Quaker associated with the Plymouth Brethren, having moved from Kingsbridge to Plymouth in 1812. It is not clear what relation he was to the ancient gentry family of Prideaux seated variously at Orcheton, Modbury; Adeston, Holbeton; Thuborough, Sutcombe; Soldon, Holsworthy; Netherton, Farway; Ashburton; Nutwell, Woodbury; Ford Abbey, Thorncombe all in Devon, and at Prideaux Place, Padstow and Prideaux Castle, Luxulyan, in Cornwall. Fox (1874) stated in regard of the Kingsbridge branch of Prideaux: ''\"We have no intention ... of tracing the pedigree back to old Paganus de Prideaux, who came over from Normandy with William the Conqueror, and who was Lord of the Castle of Prideaux, in Cornwall\"''. \n\n\nIn 1798 Messrs. Walter Prideaux (i.e. Walter Prideaux (1769-1855) \"Junior\") and John Roope erected extensive machinery at the former Kingsbridge corn-mill, which they converted into a woollen manufactory, where for a number of years the serge or long-ell trade was carried on, to supply the East India Company with goods for India. One of the sons of Walter Prideaux (1769-1855) \"Junior\" (by his wife Sarah Were) was Walter Were Prideaux (1792-1878), one of the partners in the Kingsbridge Bank on its bankruptcy in 1825.\n\nIn 1805 Walter Prideaux (d.1832), the Plymouth banker, married Sarah-Ball Hingston, a daughter of his partner Joseph Hingston (1764-1835) (Senior), merchant, of Dodbrooke (adjacent to Kingsbridge) in Devon, by his first wife Sarah Ball (d.1790), a daughter of Joseph Ball of Bridgwater in Somerset. Sarah's brother, also by their father's first wife, was Joseph Hingston (1788-1852) (Junior) of Dodbrooke. Walter Prideaux (d.1832) had six sons and five daughters, including Walter Prideaux (1806–1889), a lawyer and poet, and the lawyer Frederick Prideaux (1817-1891), author of ''Prideaux's Precedents in Conveyancing'', and his daughter Sarah Anna Prideaux was married to the Quaker Samuel Prideaux Tregelles (1813-1875), from Falmouth, the biblical scholar, textual critic, and theologian. (The second wife of Joseph Hingston (1764-1835) was Catherine-Phillips Tregelles, a daughter of Joseph Tregelles of Falmouth).\n\nIn 1825 the partners in '''Hingston & Prideaux Bank''' were Joseph Hingston and Walter Prideaux of Plymouth. \n\nThe Cookworthy Museum in Kingsbridge possesses a one pound banknote issued by the \"Kingsbridge Bank\", dated in writing 1 January 1825 and signed by Walter Prideaux jnr, with a crest on left. The back bears a red and black designe with \"G.R. IV\" with central crest, five pence above and 'ONE' below.\n\n====Bankruptcy====\nCommissions of bankruptcy were appointed on 1 October 1825 and again on 6 October 1825, against the firm of John Square, Walter Prideaux (Junior) and Walter Were Prideaux, bankers of Kingsbridge. Dividends from the bankruptcy were paid to creditors at the King's Arms Inn at Kingsbridge on 31 March 1830.\n\n===Devon & Cornwall Banking Company===\nThe name of the Hingston & Prideaux Bank, which although it encountered financial difficulties appears to have escaped the fate of its competitor at Kingsbridge, was later changed to '''Devon & Cornwall Banking Company''' to reflect its expanded geographical sphere of operations. The headquarters was in the City of Plymouth in Devon, and within one year of its establishment the first branch had been opened at St Austell in Cornwall. The bank's policy was to \"seek opportunities in the centre of agricultural and mining districts and commercial metropolises being destitute of a regular bank\". By 1840 the bank had 15 branches and by 1900 had 55 branches, when it had become one of the largest banks in the south-west. In 1906 the bank was taken over by Lloyds Bank, also of Quaker origins, in order to supply its deficiency of a branch network in the Westcountry.\n", "\n\n\n" ]

[ "\n\nThe '''Wendell Town Common Historic District''' encompasses the historic heart of the small town of Wendell, Massachusetts. Centered on a town common established in 1782, it includes a significant number of well preserved Greek Revival buildings. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.\n", "Colonial settlement of what is now the town of Gill began in the mid-18th century, and the town was incorporated in 1794. Riverside, located on the northern bank of the Connecticut River, now opposite the 19th-century industrial village of Turners Falls, was its first point of settlement. The oldest surviving building in Gill is the Howland Tavern, built about 1760 and now set on the south side of the French King Highway (Massachusetts Route 2). In the early 19th century sawmills were erected along the river, which produced lumber used in the development of Gill and neighboring communities. When Turners Falls was developed later in the 19th century, Riverside was economically eclipsed, and became a place for workers there to live. The Turners Falls Lumber Company, located in Riverside, burned down in 1903, and its site was never redeveloped.\n\nThe historic district is roughly bounded on the north by the French King Highway and the south by the river. A network of mainly residential streets is clustered southwest of the highway and the Gill–Montague Bridge, built in 1937-38 as a replacement for an older failing suspension bridge. Most of the buildings in the district are modest frame houses. They are built in a diversity of styles, representing the shifts in fortunes of the community and its industries. Notable non-residential buildings include a c. 1920 gas station, a 1926 schoolhouse, and a vegetable stand built in the 1940s to serve traffic passing on the highway.\n", "*National Register of Historic Places listings in Franklin County, Massachusetts\n", "\n\n\n\n\n" ]

[ "Joseph Kinyanjui Kombani, popularly known as “''The Banker who Writes'',” is a Kenyan novelist, playwright, script writer, and literature critic/activist. His novels, The Last Villains of Molo and Den of Inequities have been used for undergraduate and postgraduate education by universities in Kenyan and abroad. Kombani is also a recipient of the Kenyatta University Outstanding Young Alumni Award 2014 and was recognized as a  Business Daily Top 40 under 40 in 2015.\n\n\n", "Joseph Kinyanjui Kombani was born in Molo in the then Nakuru District of Rift Valley Province in Kenya. He was the last born in a family of five children. His mother single handedly catered for the family after separating from his father before he was born. \n\nKinyanjui recalls living in a tiny single roomed ''mabati'' house, which was a tough way to grow up. Kinyanjui passed by a Standard Chartered branch on his way to school at Molo Academy for his primary school education, which would later on turn out to be his employer. Located in the fertile highlands of the rift valley, Molo is one of the most important food-basket for the nearby Nakuru town, Eldoret, Kisumu, and Nairobi.   \n\nAfter the 1992 general elections, the ethnically diverse town of Molo was rocked by tribal skirmishes along with numerous others in Rift Valley, prompting his family to move out to his maternal ancestral home in Njoro, where he schooled up to form four. \n\nAfter the untimely passing of his mother, Kinyanjui was forced to move in with his brothers in Ngando, a slum off Ngong Road in Nairobi. It is also interesting to note that this would later become the setting for his novel The Last Villains of Molo much later. \n", "After completing his secondary school education at Molo Academy in 1998, Kinyanjui Kombani was admitted to Kenyatta University in 2000 and graduated in 2004 with a Bachelor of Education in English & Literature. He also completed a program on Business mentorship at Inoorero University in 2012, becoming a career business mentor. \n\nAfterwards, he successfully applied for a position at Standard Chartered Bank as Customer Relations manager, despite not having graduated with a course in a relevant field. Other positions held there include Personal Financial Consultant, Business Financial Consultant, Relations Manager in Premium Banking, and most recently, the team leader for SME Banking in Kenya. \n", "\n=== Beginnings ===\nKinyanjui Kombani started writing in 2004 while at Kenyatta University, penning a play titled '''''Carcasses''''' for the Meat Trade Awareness project by Born Free Foundation. The play was widely performed by Kenyatta University travelling theatre. In Kenya alone, more than 60,000 rural people viewed the performance of the play. It was also staged elsewhere in Africa, Europe, and the United States. In 2004, Kombani also wrote the script for '''''Mizoga,''''' the film adaptation of the play which was shot by Born Free Foundation yet again. \n\nIn the same year (2004), his first novel '''The Last Villains of Molo,''' was published by Acacia Stantex Publishers, two years after finishing the manuscript and signing a contract. The author has stated in interviews that he did not earn any royalties from the book for ten years. It was not until Longhorn Publishers released a second imprint in 2012 that the book, and its author, received widespread publicity. \n\nIn 2007, the writer moved to Longhorn publishers and published two children’s stories; '''''Wangari Maathai: Mother of Tr'''''ees, and '''''We Can be Friends,''''' the latter of which was reproduced for the Rwandan market a year later in 2008. By this time, Kinyanjui was a well renowned novelist with a considerable fan base. \n\n=== Mastery ===\nIn 2012, '''The Last Villains of Molo''' was republished by Longhorn Publishers. With proper marketing, the book was positively received by critics and the public, and it launched the career of Kinyanjui Kombani as a contemporary novelist. The book was soon approved for use as a study text in several universities in the country, including his Alma mater, Kenyatta University. The novel is also studied in universities in Germany, the United States, and England in both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. \nIn 2014, his second novel '''''Den of Inequities''''', another odyssey into the experiences of slum life in Nairobi, was published to a positive reception yet again. The text has also been used as s study text in Kenya and Rwanda universities. \n", "# Potentash. (2016).

[ "\n'''''Dear Ruth''''' is a 1947 romantic comedy film starring Joan Caulfield, William Holden, Mona Freeman, and Edward Arnold. It was based on the Broadway play of the same name by Norman Krasna. A teenage girl has a soldier for a pen pal, but uses her older sister's name and photograph. Then the man shows up while on a two-day leave.\n\nThere were two sequels: ''Dear Wife'' (1947), with all of the principal actors reprising their roles, and ''Dear Brat'' (1951), featuring Freeman, Arnold and De Wolfe.\n\nAlthough it is sometimes mistakenly believed that J. D. Salinger got the name for his character Holden Caulfield, in ''The Catcher in the Rye'' and other works, when he saw a marquee for the film, the first Holden Caulfield story, \"I'm Crazy\", was published in December 1945, a year and a half before the movie's release.\n", "Judge Wilkins and his wife Edie are puzzled when Lieutenant William Seacroft, a complete stranger, shows up at their home, asking for their elder, 22-year-old daughter Ruth. (She has gone to work at the bank, driven by her 34-year-old boyfriend Albert.) Bill has just returned from Italy, where he flew 25 missions over Germany as the bombardier of a B-26 bomber, but he only has a two-day leave. He explains that he has been corresponding with their daughter and has fallen in love with her long-distance. He makes a favorable impression on Ruth's parents and promises to return at 5:30 to meet her for the first time in person.\n\nRuth comes home and tells her parents she is getting married. They assume she has encountered Bill, but it turns out she is marrying Albert. They soon find out that their energetic 16-year-old daughter Miriam wrote to Bill 60 times, using her sister's name and sending him a photograph of Ruth, just one of her many contributions to the war effort and servicemen's morale. Ruth decides to tell Bill the truth immediately, but when he arrives, she cannot bring herself to do so. When Albert shows up for a date with Ruth, she slips away with Bill so that she can tell him privately, not in front of her entire family.\n\nBill takes her to a play, dinner and dancing until past 1 am. Albert and Ruth's parents wait up. Later, Ruth tells Albert that after Bill leaves for the Pacific, she will write to him and gently break off their relationship. She then gets the letters from Miriam and starts reading them.\n\nThe next morning, Bill's kid sister Martha waits for him in front of the Wilkins home. When Bill arrives, Ruth insists on taking Martha with them, supposedly because she has not seen her brother in two years, but actually to try to keep Bill's amorous behavior in check, so Bill invites a secretly fuming Albert too. Bill takes every opportunity to kiss Ruth, infuriating Albert. Then somebody pushes Albert off a crowded subway car at a station, and he gets separated from the others. He races to another station on the same line, but gets arrested for trying to get in without paying.\n\nA further romantic complication ensues when both Martha and Sergeant Chuck Vincent, Bill's friend, arrive at the Wilkins residence. Martha broke up with Chuck very recently. Lunch is therefore very awkward. Then Bill and Ruth show up and announce they are engaged. When Bill leaves the room, Ruth tells Albert that it is only for a few more hours. However, Bill receives a telephone call informing him that he and Chuck will be instructors in Florida. Chuck and Martha reconcile and decide to get married themselves. Judge Wilkins conducts the ceremony. Ruth then tells Bill that she only agreed to marry him because he was going back into combat, but nothing more. Miriam inadvertently reveals the whole truth to Bill. Bill accepts the situation, but after Martha and Chuck get married, Ruth has a change of heart. She and Bill also get married by her father, before leaving for Florida. Then a sailor appears, asking for Ruth. Startled, Miriam blurts out his name.\n", "* Joan Caulfield as Ruth Wilkins\n* William Holden as Lieut.

[ "A '''circular letter of credit''' was a letter of credit issued by a bank or related financial institution to a private person, usually an individual of means, which enabled that person to draw funds from correspondent banks while traveling. This was considered safer than carrying large sums of cash. Such letters were often issued on special paper with formal lettering and designs to discourage counterfeiting. The circular letter of credit generally consisted of two or three separate items. The first being the actual letter addressed to correspondent banks stating the amount of funds that can be drawn. The reverse of the letter usually contained space to record the drawing of funds against the letter and the current balance. The second item was a list of correspondent banks in the area where the letter holder expected to be traveling. And the third was a signature card which was expected to be presented for comparison when drawing funds. Banks typically charged around 1% of the value of the letter for its issuance. Circular letters of credit were in many ways similar to circular notes which were in turn a precursor to later traveler's cheques. Because of the expense involved, most financial institutions had minimum values for which they would issue such letters. In the 19th century in the United States this was typically $500. With the advent of modern electronic banking and ATMs circular letters of credit have largely fallen into disuse. \n", "\n", "* The Circular Letter of Credit\n\n\n\n" ]

[ "\n'''Henri Lafond''' (20 August 1894 – 6 March 1963) was a French mining engineer and businessman who headed or sat on the board of numerous large companies and was involved in various industrial associations and committees both before and after World War II (1939–45).\nDuring the war he held a senior position in the Vichy government's Ministry of Industrial Production from 1940 to 1942.\nHe was assassinated in March 1963, apparently by an OAS member due to his refusal to support the movement to oppose Algerian independence.\n", "\nHenri Lafond was born on 20 August 1894 in Thaumiers, Cher.\nHis parents were Joseph Lafond, a tobacconist, and Juliette Alexandrine Guénard.\nHis father was the son of a laborer.\nHenri Lafond studied at the Thaumiers commune school, then at the Bourges ''lycée''.\nHe entered the École Polytechnique in 1914.\nHe was described as having brown hair, vertical brow, straight nose, chestnut eyes, oval face, height .\nLafond was awarded the Croix de guerre for his service in World War I.\nHe entered the École des Mines de Paris in 1919, and graduated in 1920 second out of 145 students. He became a member of the Corps des mines.\nLafond married a Mlle. Thivet. \nTheir children were Hélène and Jacqueline, who both married doctors.\n\nLafond left the Corps des Mines in 1929 to join the Banque Mirabaud.\nThe Mirabaud Bank specialised in mining and associated industries.\nLafond was made head of its subsidiary, the Association minière, in 1930.\nHe became a director of many mining companies.\nHe became a director of the Compagnie des Mines du Huaron, and a managing director of the Litcho Gold Mines in 1935.\nIn 1939 he was director of the Compagnie marocaine representing the Banque Mirabaud.", "\nDuring World War II Lafond was close to men considered to be members of the Synarchy.\nRené Belin was made Minister of Industrial Production in July 1940 in Marshal Philippe Pétain's government.\nHe appointed Jean Bichelonne and Henri Lafond to the two senior positions in the ministry.\nOn 12 August 1940 Petain called for the various social committees to merge into \"families\" in an effort to reduce overhead.\nLafond proposed to merged the 11 iron and steel committees into a metallurgy family headed by Jules Aubrun.\nAubrun accepted this in principle in November 1941, but wanted fewer committees in the family.\nIn the end, no progress was made.\n\nIn the government of Pierre Laval formed in 18 April 1942 the Ministry of Industry was headed by Jean Bichelonne with Henri Lafond as General Secretary for Energy and René Norguet (1888–1968) as General Secretary for Industrial Production.\nLafond's Energy secretariat included sections for mines, steel, gas/electricity and fuel.\nLafond was finally dismissed in November 1942.\nThis seems to have been engineered by Laval due to his personal dislike.\n\nAfter leaving the government Lafond was appointed President and CEO of the Association minière and joined the Mirabaud Group, long-time partner of the Banque de l'Union Parisienne (BUP).\nFrom 1943 he was President of the Mines du Huaron and on the board of Tréfileries et Laminoirs du Havre.\nHe joined the executive committee of the BUP in January 1944.\n", "\nIn the post-war period Lafond maintained contact with the people with whom he had worked during the war, and the \"Lafond Group\" met for monthly lunches for the rest of his life.\nThe members of the group, almost all engineers, represented oil, power, mining, steel and industrial chemistry.\nLafond worked with Pierre Ricard and Henri Davezac to form the Conseil national du patronat français (CNPF), representing French employers, with Georges Villiers as the first president.\nBecause he had left the Vichy regime soon enough, he was able to play a leading role in the CNPF, although he remained a believer in most of the Vichy regime's Comités d'Organization principles.\nHe was a \"modernist\", and thought employees were entitled to certain rights, which should be regulated by law.\nFrom 1947 to 1954 he was a member of the CNPF Economic and Social Council, representing a group of private industrial companies.\n\nLafond had many contacts among the senior administrators of France and the leaders of major companies.\nHis voice was heard by General Charles de Gaulle.\nLafond sat on the Comité Franc-Dollar and the École polytechnique development council.\nIn April 1951 Lafond was tentatively appointed to the new Commissariat à l'énergie atomique (Atomic Energy Committee).\nThis appointment was strongly opposed by Francis Perrin, expected to be the High Commissioner, based on Lafond's background in the Vichy regime and his many private interests.\nPerrin blocked the appointment by threatening to resign.\n\nLafond was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Société du Djebel-Djérissa from 1945 to 1962.\nHe was a director of the Banque de l'Union Parisienne, the Société des Phosphates de Gafsa, the Société de l'Ouenza, the Société française des pétroles, the Société commerciale d'affrètements et de combustibles, Chantiers et Ateliers de Saint-Nazaire from 1947, Pechiney from 1948 and Électricité de France from 1949.\nLafond became vice-president of the BUP in 1948, and became CEO of the BUP in 1951.\nIn 1953, in great secrecy, he arranged the merger of the BUP with the Mirabaud Bank.\nMirabaud's portfolio included large investments in the mining and oil sectors.\nThe bank controlled the Société Mokta El Hadid.\nLafond headed the Mokta company until his death in 1963.\nLafond was also head of the Société Anonyme Chérifienne d'Etudes Minières (SACEM).\nIn 1962 he joined the board of Tréfimétaux, formed by a merger of the Tréfileries et Laminoirs du Havre and the Compagnie française des métaux.\n\nHenri Lafond became a knight of the Legion of Honour on 28 January 1939.\nHe was appointed an Officer of the Legion of Honour of 5 September 1949, and Commander of the Legion of Honour on 18 June 1959.\nWhile leaving his house in Neuilly-sur-Seine, Hauts-de-Seine, on 6 March 1963 he was killed by several revolver bullets.\nThe killer fled and was never found.\nThe killer apparently was an OAS member, and killed him since he refused to support the OAS with the companies in his group.\nAt the time of his death, Henri Lafond owned 0.26% of the capital of the BUP.\n",

[ "\n\n'''Port Clinton Light''' is a lighthouse in Port Clinton, Ohio at the northern end of Waterworks Park. It previously had been on the outer end of the west pier which is located in the city's harbor entrance. This lighthouse has two incarnations which were built with different materials. Only the present structure survives as it was moved to a marina and replaced by a skeleton tower in 1952. The marina in turn sold the lighthouse back to the city, and it was placed in the park fully restored. At just , Port Clinton Light is the shortest lighthouse in the state.\n", "\nThe first lighthouse was constructed of split-stone and was 40 feet tall in height. Austin Smith was the first keeper of the lighthouse six months after it was built. Despite calls for the light to be discontinued due to a lack of harbor traffic, it remained until 1870. In that year the lantern room was removed from the tower which resulted in complaints from residents regarding it's aid. In 1883, piers in the port were extended into Lake Erie which prompted congress to act in 1895 on the construction of a new lighthouse. The new lighthouse was constructed from wood and went into service on the outer end of the west pier in 1896. The old tower was razed in 1899, and the original keeper's dwelling was replaced in 1901 in favor for a more modern residence. \n\nThe lighthouse was automated in 1926, and was sold the following year which resulted in its deactivation. The Keeper's residence was used as an apartment building in the 1940s and later as a restaurant in 1983. The wooden lighthouse was removed from the pier in 1952 and was relocated to the new owner's marina on the Portage River. That same year a new white skeleton tower was erected on the spot which used a modern 375 mm lens.\n\nIn 2009 the restaurant that had been in the Keeper's residence closed due to a fire. The owner was arrested and charged with arson in 2010 which resulted in the residence being sold to ''Croghan Colonial Bank'' in 2013. The wooden lighthouse tower was donated in 2011 to the city of Port Clinton by the owners of the same marina that had acquired it 59 years prior. Repairs were made to the old tower which resulted in a complete restoration but there were legal battles on where the structure should be placed. The Port Clinton Lighthouse Conservancy and the city finally had everything settled on July 14, 2015 with the placement in the northern end of Water Works Park. While the structure is illuminated during nightfall it is no longer considered a navigational aid.\n", "\n\n\nName\nTenure\n\n Austin Smith\n 1833–1848\n\n William B.

[ "\nGeographical region Transnistria in relation to the rest of Moldova, landlocked along the border with Ukraine\n'''Transnistria''' (Romanian: ) - region in the east Europe. The PMR controls a narrow strip of territory to the east of the River Dniester, and also the city of Bender and its surrounding localities on the west bank, in the historical region of Bessarabia.\n\nAfter the dissolution of the USSR, tensions between Moldova and the breakaway Transnistrian territory escalated into a military conflict that started in March 1992 and was concluded by a ceasefire in July of the same year. As part of that agreement, a three-party (Russia, Moldova, Transnistria) Joint Control Commission supervises the security arrangements in the demilitarised zone, comprising twenty localities on both sides of the river. Although the ceasefire has held, the territory's political status remains unresolved: Transnistria is an unrecognised but ''de facto'' independent semi-presidential republic with its own government, parliament, military, police, postal system, currency and vehicle registration. Its authorities have adopted a constitution, flag, national anthem, and coat of arms. It is the only country still using the hammer and sickle on its flag.\n\nAfter a 2005 agreement between Moldova and Ukraine, all Transnistrian companies that seek to export goods through the Ukrainian border must be registered with the Moldovan authorities. This agreement was implemented after the European Union Border Assistance Mission to Moldova and Ukraine (EUBAM) took force in 2005. Most Transnistrians also have Moldovan citizenship, but many Transnistrians also have Russian and Ukrainian citizenship. The largest ethnic group is Moldovans (32.1%), who historically had a higher share of the population, up to 49.4% in 1926.\n\nTransnistria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Artsakh are post-Soviet \"frozen conflict\" zones. These four partially recognised states maintain friendly relations with each other and form the Community for Democracy and Rights of Nations.\n", "\n\nThe region is also known in English as \"Trans-Dniestr\" or \"Transdniestria\". Etymologically, these names are adaptations of the Romanian colloquial name of the region, \"Transnistria\" meaning \"beyond the River Dniester\".\n\nThe documents of the government of Moldova refer to the region as ''Stînga Nistrului'' (in full, ''Unitățile Administrativ-Teritoriale din Stînga Nistrului'') meaning \"Left Bank of the Dniester\" (in full, \"Administrative-territorial unit(s) of the Left Bank of the Dniester\").\n\nThe name of the region according to the Transnistrian authorities is ''Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic'' (PMR) (, ''Pridnestrovskaya Moldavskaya Respublika''; Moldovan Cyrillic alphabet: Република Молдовеняскэ Нистрянэ, РМН, ; , ''Prydnistrovs'ka Moldavs'ka Respublika''). The short form of this name is ''Pridnestrovie'' (, ''Pridnestrovye''; Moldovan Cyrillic alphabet: Нистрения, ''Nistrenia''; , ''Prydnistrovya''). \"Pridnestrovie\" is a transliteration of the Russian \"Приднестровье\" meaning \"a land by the River Dniester\".\n", "\n\n===Antiquity and Middle Ages===\nIndo-European tribes had for millennia inhabited the area where Transnistria now is when it was a borderland between Dacia and Scythia. The Tyragetae (a Getae Thracian tribe) inhabited the area around the River Dniester (called \"Tyras\" in ancient documents) as well as the Scythians. Early Germanic and Turkic tribes were present in the area during their attacks and invasions of the Roman Empire.\n\nFrom 56 AD, the coastal area around the city of Tyras was occupied by the Romans for nearly four centuries, forming part of the province of Lower Moesia. Tyras enjoyed great development during Roman times: there is a series of its coins with heads of emperors from Domitian to Alexander Severus. But in the second half of the fourth century the area was continuously attacked by barbarians and the Roman legionaries left Tyras.\n\nIn the early Middle Ages, Slavic tribes of Tivertsi and Ulichs populated larger areas, including Transnistria, followed by Turkic nomads such as the Petchenegs and Cumans.\n\nPossibly an early part of Kievan Rus', after the Mongol invasion of Europe in 1241, the territory was briefly under Mongol control (yet probably without any permanent settlements) and later under the Crimean Khanate.\n\n===Early modern period===\nFrom the 15th century, northern Transnistria (current districts of Camenca and Rîbniţa) were part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and later to the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth (1569–1793) which encouraged the migration of peasants into the territory from the neighbouring populated areas (from north and from west). Prince of Moldavia George Ducas (1665–66, 1668–72, 1678–84) built a court at Țicanova on the east bank of the Dniester, and one at Nimirov on the Southern Bug, last mentioned in Moldavian hands in 1765. The localities Dubăsari, Rașcov, Vasilcău, as well as four other currently in Ukraine are mentioned in 17th–18th centuries as fairs for the Dniester-Bug region. In 1769, a document dated at Bender mentions the then title of the Mitropolitan of Moldavia as ''Mitropolitan of Proilavia, of Tamarova, of Hotin, and of all the borders of the Danube, of the Dniester, and the Han's Ukraine'', the latter being a common reference to the then sparsely populated Dniester–Southern Bug–Dniepr area.\n\nBefore becoming part of the Russian Empire in 1792 (southern part) and 1793 (northern part) the largest groups living between the Dniester and the Bug rivers were Moldavian, Ruthenian (Ukrainian) and Tatar peasants. The Russian census of 1793 of the Ochakov region (southern part of the Dniester-Bug area) mentions a totality of 67 villages, of which 49 are mentioned as Moldavian and 18 as Tatar. The first candidate for the governor of the new Russian region was the Moldavian boyar of Greek ancestry Alexandru I. Mavrocordat. The northern part of Transnistria had Ruthenian (Ukrainian) and Moldavian villages.\n\n===Russian Empire===\nGrigoriopol was founded by Russian Empress Catherine II in 1792.\nIn 1792, the region became part of the Russian Empire as a result of the sixth Russo-Turkish War. In that year, the general Alexander Suvorov founded modern Tiraspol as a Russian border fortress. Until the Russian Revolution of 1917, the current Transnistria was divided among the imperial guberniyas of Podolia, Kherson, and Bessarabia. Most of the territory which now is Transnistria was part of the larger New Russia region, hence it saw a strong colonisation process, with a multitude of ethnicities being settled: lands were given to enserfed peasantry from Russia and Ukraine in Nova Serbia, while Jews and Germans were brought in to facilitate economic development.\n\n===Soviet and Romanian administration===\n\nMoldavian ASSR (orange) and Romania, 1924–1940\nTransnistria became an autonomous political entity in 1924 with the proclamation of the Moldavian ASSR, which included today's Transnistria (4,000 km2) and an adjacent area (9,000 km2) around the city of Balta in modern-day Ukraine, but nothing from Bessarabia, which at the time formed part of Romania. One of the reasons for the creation of the Moldavian ASSR was the desire of the Soviet Union at the time to eventually incorporate Bessarabia. The Moldavian SSR, organised by a decision of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on 2 August 1940, was formed out of a part of Bessarabia (taken from Romania on 28 June, after the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact) and out of a part of the Moldavian ASSR roughly equivalent to present-day Transnistria.\n\nIn 1941, after Axis forces invaded the Soviet Union during the Second World War, they defeated the Soviet troops in the region and occupied it. Romania controlled the entire region between Dniester and Southern Bug rivers, including the city of Odessa as local capital.\n\nThe Romanian-administered territory – called the Transnistria Governorate – with an area of 44,000 km2 and a population of 2.3 million inhabitants, was divided into 13 counties: Ananiev, Balta, Berzovca, Dubasari, Golta, Jugastru, Movilau, Oceacov, Odessa, Ovidiopol, Rîbnița, Tiraspol and Tulcin. This enlarged Transnistria was home to nearly 200,000 Romanian/Moldovan-speaking residents.\n\nThe Romanian administration of Transnistria attempted to stabilise the situation in the area under Romanian control, implementing a process of Romanianization.\n\nDuring the Romanian occupation of 1941–44, between 150,000 and 250,000 Ukrainian and Romanian Jews had been deported to Transnistria and the majority were executed or died from other causes in ghettos and concentration camps of the Governorate.\n\nAfter the Red Army reconquered the area in 1944, Soviet authorities executed, exiled or imprisoned hundreds of the Moldavian SSR inhabitants in the following months on charges of collaboration with the \"German-fascist occupiers\". A later campaign was directed against the rich peasant families, who were deported to Kazakhstan and Siberia. Over the course of two days, 6–7 July 1949, a plan named \"Operation South\" saw the deportation of over 11,342 families by the order of the Moldovian Minister of State Security, I. L. Mordovets.\n\n===Secession===\nIgor Smirnov, first president of Transnistria from 1991–2011\nIn the 1980s, Mikhail Gorbachev's policies of perestroika and glasnost in the Soviet Union allowed political liberalisation at a regional level. This led to the creation of various informal movements all over the country, and to a rise of nationalism within most Soviet republics. In the Moldavian SSR in particular, there was a significant resurgence of pro-Romanian nationalism among ethnic Moldovans. The most prominent of these movements was the Popular Front of Moldova. In the spring of 1988, PFM demanded that the Soviet authorities declare Moldovan the only state language, return to the use of the Latin alphabet, and recognise the shared ethnic identity of Moldovans and Romanians. The more radical factions of the Popular Front espoused extreme anti-minority, ethnocentric and chauvinist positions, calling for minority populations, particularly the Slavs (mainly Russians and Ukrainians) and Gagauz, to leave or be expelled from Moldova.\n\nOn 31 August 1989, the Supreme Council of the Moldavian SSR adopted Moldovan as the only official language with Russian retained only for secondary purposes, returned Moldovan to the Latin alphabet, and declared a shared Moldovan-Romanian linguistic identity. As plans for major cultural changes in Moldova were made public, tensions rose further. Ethnic minorities felt threatened by the prospects of removing Russian as the official language, which served as the medium of interethnic communication, and by the possible future reunification of Moldova and Romania, as well as the ethnocentric rhetoric of the Popular Front. The Yedinstvo (Unity) Movement, established by the Slavic population of Moldova, pressed for equal status to be given to both Russian and Moldovan. Transnistria's ethnic and linguistic composition differed significantly from most of the rest of Moldova. The share of ethnic Russians and Ukrainians was especially high and an overall majority of the population, some of them ethnic Moldovans, spoke Russian as a mother tongue. Ethnic Moldovans accounted for less than 40% of Transnistria's population in 1989.\nSoviet symbols are still used in Transnistria.\n\nThe nationalist Popular Front won the first free parliamentary elections in the Moldavian SSR in the spring of 1990, and its agenda started slowly to be implemented. On 2 September 1990, the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic was proclaimed as a Soviet republic by an ''ad hoc'' assembly, the Second Congress of the Peoples' Representatives of Transnistria. Violence escalated when in October 1990 the Popular Front called for volunteers to form armed militias to stop an autonomy referendum in Gagauzia, which had an even higher share of ethnic minorities. In response, volunteer militias were formed in Transnistria. In April 1990, nationalist mobs attacked ethnic Russian members of parliament, while the Moldovan police refused to intervene or restore order.\n\nIn the interest of preserving a unified Moldavian SSR within the USSR and preventing the situation escalating further, then Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, while citing the restriction of civil rights of ethnic minorities by Moldova as the cause of the dispute, declared the Transnistria proclamation to be lacking legal basis and annulled it by presidential decree on 22 December 1990. Nevertheless, no significant action was taken against Transnistria and the new authorities were slowly able to establish control of the region.\n\n===War of Transnistria===\n\nThe War of Transnistria followed armed clashes on a limited scale which broke out between Transnistrian separatists and Moldova as early as November 1990 at Dubăsari. Volunteers, including Cossacks, came from Russia to help the separatist side. In mid-April 1992, under the agreements on the split of the military equipment of the former Soviet Union negotiated between the former 15 republics in the previous months, Moldova created its own Defence Ministry. According to the decree of its creation, most of the 14th Soviet Army's military equipment was to be retained by Moldova. Starting from 2 March 1992, there was concerted military action between Moldova and Transnistria. Throughout early 1992 the fighting intensified. The former Soviet 14th Guards Army entered the conflict in its final stage, opening fire against Moldovan forces; Approximately 700 people were killed. Since then, Moldova has exercised no effective control or influence on Transnistrian authorities. A ceasefire agreement was signed on 21 July 1992 and has held to the present day.\n", "Dniester River in Bender\n\nTransnistria is landlocked and borders Bessarabia (i.e., the rest of Moldova, for 411 km) to the West, and Ukraine (for 405 km) to the East. It is a narrow valley stretching in the North-South direction along the bank of the Dniester river, which forms a natural boundary along most of the border with (the rest of) Moldova.\n\nThe territory controlled by the PMR is mostly, but not completely, coincident with the left (eastern) bank of Dniester. It includes ten cities and towns, and 69 communes, with a total of 147 localities (counting the unincorporated ones as well). Six communes on the left bank (Cocieri, Molovata Nouă, Corjova, Pîrîta, Coșnița, and Doroțcaia) remained under the control of the Moldovan government after the War of Transnistria in 1992, as part of the Dubăsari District. They are situated north and south of the city of Dubăsari, which itself is under PMR control. The village of Roghi of Molovata Nouă Commune is also controlled by the PMR (Moldova controls the other nine of the ten villages of the six communes).\n\nOn the west bank, in Bessarabia, the city of Bender and four communes (containing six villages) to its east, south-east, and south, on the opposite bank of the river Dniester from the city of Tiraspol (Proteagailovca, Gîsca, Chițcani, and Cremenciug) are controlled by the PMR.\n\nThe localities controlled by Moldova on the eastern bank, the village of Roghi, and the city of Dubăsari (situated on the eastern bank and controlled by the PMR) form a security zone along with the six villages and one city controlled by the PMR on the western bank, as well as two (Varnița and Copanca) on the same west bank under Moldovan control. The security situation inside it is subject to the Joint Control Commission rulings.\n\nThe main transportation route in Transnistria is the road Tiraspol-Dubăsari-Rîbnița. North and south of Dubăsari it passes through the lands of the villages controlled by Moldova (Doroțcaia, Cocieri, Roghi, while Vasilievca is entirely situated east of the road). Conflict erupted on several occasions when the PMR prevented the villagers from reaching their farmland east of the road.\n\nTransnistrians are able to travel (normally without difficulty) in and out of the territory under PMR control to neighbouring Moldovan-controlled territory, to Ukraine, and on to Russia, by road or (when service is not interrupted by political tensions) on two international trains, the year-round Moscow-Chișinău, and the seasonal Saratov-Varna. International air travellers rely on the airport in Chișinău, the Moldovan capital, or the airport in Odessa, in Ukraine.\n", "\n\n\n\n" ]

[ " \n\n'''Mellor Brothers''' was a farm machinery manufacturer in the early days of South Australia, founded by Joseph Mellor, and carried on by two of their four sons.\n", "Joseph Mellor, his wife Mary née Fox, and son Thomas Fox Mellor arrived in South Australia aboard ''Fairlie'' (often spelled ''Fairleigh'') in July 1840. \n:Also on board were his parents Thomas Mellor, his wife Margaret née Thornton, their unmarried daughters Mary and Delia and married daughters Elizabeth Walker and Nancy Turner with their husbands and young families.\nThe Mellors were to have three more sons, two of whom would figure prominently in the company's development.\n\nJoseph Mellor set himself up in business in Morphett Street as a carpenter and wheelwright, and was soon employing around five men and advertising manufacture of drays, wheelbarrows, harrows and other simple farming implements. By 1857 he was employing over fifty and had a second factory on Town Acre 246, Franklin Street adjacent to the original one on Town Acre 245 on the north-west corner of Morphett and Franklin streets. By 1859 he had 100 men and had agents in Melbourne, Wahgunyah and Beechworth in Victoria, and Goolwa in South Australia. \n\nAt the 1862 International Exhibition his reaping and harvesting machine won a medal, and was later sold to Russia. At the Grand General Show, held in conjunction with the Royal Visit of 1867, Mellor won a good number of prizes. Mellor was a member of the Agricultural and Horticultural Society. 1855–1862\n\nIn 1863 he purchased an block of land south of the railway line at Kapunda and opened a factory at the corner of Carrington and Cambria streets, with around 15 men under the supervision of his son James F. Mellor, which in 1864 produced 110 reaping machines.\n\n===Mellor Bros.===\nIn 1869 Joseph Mellor relinquished control of the Franklin Street Machine and Wheel Works in favour of his two elder sons, Thomas Fox Mellor and James Fox Mellor, who were joined at some later stage by Benjamin Fox Mellor. Thomas, who was little interested in engineering, served as manager for a time, then left to pursue a business career. \n\nJames F. Mellor resided at Kapunda, and supervised that factory.\nIn 1876 they erected a facility in Jamestown with some workshop facilities, managed by one J. W. Stephens. Agricultural machines fabricated in Kapunda were carried by road to Jamestown as it was cheaper than by rail, but at the cost of at least one life.\nThey set up another facility opposite the railway station in Quorn in 1880.\n\nThe partnership between T. F., J. F., and B. F. Mellor was dissolved 5 January 1878, but the business continued to operate under James' and Benjamin's joint ownership.\n\nThe company appointed agencies in Victoria, and in 1885 B. F. Mellor and his family moved to Ballarat, Victoria to oversee interstate distribution. In 1888 arrangements were made for McCalman, Garde, & Co. of North Melbourne to manufacture Mellor patent ploughs and scarifiers under licence. \nJ. F. and B. F. Mellor founded a factory at Braybrook Junction, close to Melbourne, cheap coal, bluestone quarries and railway facilities, and near the site of a successful demonstration of their stump-jump plough. The Braybrook Implement Works would later be taken over by H. V. McKay to become the giant Sunshine Harvester Works.\nJ. F. and B. F. Mellor also founded the Meadowbank Implement Works at Meadowbank, New South Wales.\nIn 1892 Benjamin F. Mellor sold up his personal property and settled in Moonee Ponds, Victoria.\n\nMellor Brothers Cooperative Limited (from 1892 Mellors Cooperative Company Ltd.) was founded 1890 to take over the assets of Mellor Brothers, and shares were sold, principally to farmers and employees. James F. Mellor was appointed chairman of directors. The Kapunda, Jamestown and Quorn assets were transferred to the new company in July 1891, and new depots established at Terowie and Hawker later that same year. Orroroo followed, then Nairne in 1893.\n\nIn 1893 a severe recession hit South Australia, coinciding with several bank failures. The company responded by putting employees on half time. In 1894, in the face of continuing losses and mounting bad debts, the company compulsorily acquired shares held by James and Benjamin Mellor, wrote down the asset value of goodwill and patent rights and filed for voluntary liquidation. The disposal of assets was handled by the firm of Bagot, Shakes and Lewis.\n\n===The brothers===\nThe sons of Joseph Mellor may have been educated at J. L. Young's Adelaide Educational Institution, but if so none was mentioned in any of the school's prizegiving ceremonies.\n\n'''Thomas Fox Mellor''' (1836 – 24 December 1898) was born in Rastrick, Yorkshire and came to South Australia with his parents as a four-year-old child.\nUnlike his brothers he had no inclination to things mechanical, and after assisting his father with management duties, severed his connection with the business and settled down to work as a land and estate agent, becoming a member of the Adelaide Stock Exchange. He was an avid draughts player, member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and prominent member of the Semaphore Baptist Church.\nHe died at his residence, Paxton Street, Semaphore. The funeral took place on Christmas Day, and his remains were interred in the Westt Terrace Cemetery.\n\n'''James Fox Mellor''' (1841 – 6 April 1914) was born in Adelaide in 1841, and joined his father's business on leaving school. In 1864 he proceeded to Kapunda to manage the factory there, and he lived there 23 years. He was a prominent citizen of the town, and was mayor for three years, and was particularly well known amongst the farming community. He and his brother Benjamin F. Mellor founded the Meadowbank Implement Works in Sydney, and the Braybrook Implement Works at Sunshine, Victoria. He married a daughter of Thomas Neill, accountant for the South Australian Company. He was a prominent member of the Tynte Street Baptist Church, North Adelaide.\nHe died at his residence. Molesworth Street, North Adelaide.\n\n'''Benjamin Fox Mellor''' (1843 – 5 March 1916) was born in Adelaide, and from a young age showed an interest in farming, and applied that knowledge to design and construction of reaping and winnowing machines and other agricultural implements. He took a great interest in religion, and was a member of the Bentham Street Baptist Church in the early days, and later of the Flinders Street Church.\nHe and his family moved to Victoria to manage an implement factory at Braybrook, and retired to live at Moonee Ponds. He married the only daughter of Robert Dawson, of Dublin, South Australia.\nHe died at Newlyn, Victoria while visiting a daughter.\n\n'''John Fox Mellor''' (22 February 1845 – 4 May 1913) was born in Adelaide and learned the trade of an ironmoulder, but left the business for farming. He secured a property at the Reedbeds, where he lived for 41 years. He was vitally interested in education and for 31 years was a member of the Thebarton School Board of Advice (ie. School Council). The extensive grounds of the Thebarton School were named \"The Mellor Playgrounds\" in his honour.\nHe was a driving force behind the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and a longtime member of the Royal Agricultural and Horticultural Society and the the Field Naturalists' Society. He did much good work for the Home for Incurables at Fullarton. He was prominently connected the Adelaide Philharmonic Society and was honorary organist to several churches, including the Flinders Street Baptist Church. When the eminent English organist W. H. Jude came to Adelaide, he was a pioneer in the formation of the Jude Benevolent Search Party, a charitable organization. For years attended various churches in the Henley Beach area: Methodist, Baptist, Congregational, and Church of Christ. He was a longtime member of the Y.M.C.A. and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and the Voluntary Militia. He was a member of the Henley Beach branch of the Liberal Union.\nHe died at his home, \"Holmfirth\" in Fulham.\n\n'''Note on Mellor Park'''\nThere have been two quite separate Adelaide suburbs named \"Mellor Park\": one, now part of Semaphore Park, subdivided by Thomas F.

The oldest building in the complex is a timber-framed three-story building constructed in 1887, after an earlier mill building was destroyed by fire.

In 1878 White struck out on his own, acquiring this property, which then had industrial buildings already standing. These were destroyed by fire in 1887, after which White quickly rebuilt. In 1899 White expanded his business to include the production of stereoscopic images, sending photographers out to take pictures of the wonders of man and nature across the world. The company's high-quality images made it one of the leading producers of such imagery for over a decade. In the 1910s, seeking a new market, White embarked on the manufacture of wooden children's furniture and the highly popular Kiddie-Kar, a three-wheeled scooter. The company exited the steoroscope business in 1915, selling its image collection to the Keystone View Company. The company survived until 1935, when it went into receivership and closed.

The widowed countess has asked him to come urgently because she has received an anonymous letter saying she will die next day, which is Ash Wednesday. He finds the château in a sorry state: its contents are being systematically sold by the countess' young assistant Sabatier and its lands by the current estate manager Gautier and his young son Émile, a bank clerk. They say they are doing this to fund the countess' son Maurice, an alcoholic playboy who rarely visits his now-sick mother. \n\nEarly next morning the countess goes to mass at the village church where, on returning to her pew after receiving the sacrament, she falls dead.

[ "\n\nThe '''Westinghouse Interworks Railway''' was a short line railroad that operated in the lower Turtle Creek valley east of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The Interworks Railway began limited service on August 9, 1903 and became fully operational on December 1, 1904. This company shipped raw materials and finished products between the Westinghouse facilities charging tonnage fees for the freight and hourly fees for the labor. Naturally, the line shuttled factory workmen to and from their jobs as well.\n\nRidership on this line was not limited to workmen, and the vehicles that rode the rails were not limited to steam powered freight trains. A portion of the railway was electrified, allowing its use for the testing and promotion of Westinghouse's new electric trains. One such promotional event occurred in 1905, when during an international railway congress the track was used to demonstrate a new 1500 horsepower Baldwin-Westinghouse single-phase alternating-current electric locomotive.\n", "\nThe Airbrake Park Walking Trail follows part of the path of the old Westinghouse Interworks Railway in Wilmerding, Pennsylvania.

The rails had to be temporarily removed during part of the bridge constriction; their owner wanted them replaced, and the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission agreed that the county was obligated to replace them. Local civic leaders as well as neighboring businessmen voiced their objections, questioning the wisdom of using public funds to restore a railroad that had not seen a train since the 1980s, arguing that the money could have been better spent. The county ultimately spent $365,000 restoring the rails. The 10.114 acres of vacant industrial land on which they lie was assessed at $39,700 in 2017.

[ "The Mughal Empire's province Gujarat (now in India) was managed by the viceroys appointed by the emperors. The emperor Muhammad Shah (1719–1748) died in 1748 and he was succeeded by his son Ahmad Shah Bahadur. He appointed Vakhatsingh, brother of Mahárája Abheysingh of Marwar as a viceroy but he never took a charge. Sensing opportunity in weakening Mughal power, the Marathas and the Mughal nobles started plotting to establish themselves in Gujarat. The Maratha houses, Gaikwar and Peshwa, engaged in a struggle and finally brokered a peace. Jawan Mard Khan, who was incharge of Ahmedabad, had to surrender to them after a long seige. Thus the Marathas established themselves firmly in Gujarat in 1752. In 1754, Ahmad Shah Bahadur was deposed and Alamgir II came to power on the Mughal throne. \n", "=== Mahárája Vakhatsingh, Fifty-ninth Viceroy, 1748===\nThe emperor Muhammad Shah died in 1748 and he was succeeded by his son Ahmad Shah Bahadur. Shortly after his accession Mahárája Vakhatsingh, brother of Mahárája Abheysingh, was appointed fifty-ninth viceroy of Gujarát. When he learned what was the state of the province, he pleaded that his presence would be more useful in his own dominions, and never took up his appointment of viceroy. Vakhatsingh was the last viceroy of Gujarát nominated by the imperial court, for although by the aid of the Maráthás Fakhr-ud-daulah was of importance in the province, he had never been able to establish himself as viceroy. In this year also occurred the death of Khushálchand Sheth, the chief merchant of Ahmedabad.\n\nKhanderáv Gáikwár appointed Rághavshankar his deputy at Áhmedábád, and Safdar Khán Bábi issued from Áhmedábád with an army to levy tribute from the chiefs on the banks of the Sabarmati river. When Fakhr-ud-daulah, the former viceroy, heard of the appointment of Mahárája Vakhatsingh, seeing no chance of any benefit from a longer stay in Gujarát, he retired to Delhi. In 1748, Ásif Jáh, Nizám-ul-Mulk, died at an advanced age, leaving six sons and a disputed succession.\n\n;Disorder Spreads.\nAbout the same time Bálájiráv Peshwa, who was jealous of the power of the Gáikwár, sent a body of troops, and freed Rangoji from the hands of Khanderáv Gáikwár. During these years adventurers, in different parts of the country, taking advantage of the decay of the central power, endeavoured to establish themselves in independence. Of these attempts the most formidable was the revolt of one of the Pátan Kasbátis who established his power so firmly in Pátan that Jawán Mard Khán found it necessary to proceed in person to reduce him. Shortly afterwards Jawán Mard Khán deemed it advisable to recall his brothers Safdar Khán and Zoráwar Khán, who were then at Unjha under Pátan, and took them with him to Áhmedábád. Fidá-ud-dín Khán who had been residing at Atarsumba (near Vadodara) now asked permission to return to Áhmedábád, but as Jawán Mard Khán did not approve of this suggestion, Fidá-ud-dín departed to Bharuch and there took up his residence. Janárdhan Pandit marched to Kaira (Kheda) and the Bhíl district to levy tribute, and Khanderáv appointed Shevakrám his deputy.\n\n;Surat Affairs, 1750.\nIn the meantime at Surat, Sayad Achchan endeavoured to consolidate his rule, and with this view tried to expel Háfiz Masûud Habshí, and prevent him again entering the city. But his plans failed, and he was obliged to make excuses for his conduct. Sayad Achchan then oppressed other influential persons, until eventually the Habshí and others joining, attacked him in the citadel. Except the English leader Mr. Lamb, who considered himself bound by the deed signed in 1747 in favour of Sayad Achchan, all the merchants of Surat joined the assailants. Among the chief opponents of Sayad Achchan were the Dutch, who sending ships brought back Safdar Muhammad Khán from Thatta, and established him as governor of Surat. The English factory was next besieged, and, though a stout resistance was made, the guards were bribed, and the factory plundered. In 1750 Sayad Achchan, surrendering the citadel to the Habshí, withdrew first to Bombay and then to Poona, to Bálájiráv Peshwa. Shortly afterwards, in consequence of the censure passed upon him by the Bombay Government for his support of Sayad Achchan, Mr. Lamb committed suicide. Wearied by these continual contests for power, the merchants of Surat asked Rája Raghunathdás, minister to the Nizám, to choose them a governor. Rája Raghunathdás accordingly nominated his own nephew, Rája Harprasád, to be governor, and the writer of the ''Mirăt-i-Áhmedi'' to be his deputy. But before Rája Harprasád could join his appointment at Surat, both he and his father were slain in battle.\n\nIn 1750, occurred the deaths of Rája Ráisingh of Idar, of Safdar Khán Bábi of Balasinor, and of Fidá-ud-dín Khán, who had for some time been settled at Bharuch. \n\n;Jawán Mard Khán and the Peshwa, 1750.\nJawán Mard Khán, who, seeing that they were inclined to become permanent residents in Gujarát, was always opposed to the Gáikwár’s power, now entered into negotiations with Bálájiráv Peshwa. He chose Patel Sukhdev to collect the Marátha revenue and asked the Peshwa to help him in expelling Dámáji’s agents. The Peshwa, being now engaged in war in the Dakhan with Salábat Jang Bahádur, son of the late Nizám, was unable to send Jawán Mard Khán any assistance. Towards the close of the year Jawán Mard Khán started from Áhmedábád to collect tribute from the Sábarmati chiefs. Returning early in 1751, at the request of Jetha Patel a subordinate of Bhávsingh Desái, he proceeded to Banod or Vanod under Viramgam and reduced the village. Áli Muhammad Khán, the author of the ''Mirăt-i-Áhmedi'', who about this time was raised in rank with the title of Bahádur, states that owing to the Marátha inroads most of the districts had passed entirely into their possession; in others according to agreements with Jawán Mard Khán they held a half share. Consequently in spite of new taxes, the entire remaining income of the province was only four lákhs of rupees, and it was impossible to maintain the military posts or control the rebellious Kolis.\n\n;The Peshwa and Gáikwár, 1751\nIn 1751, the Peshwa, decoying Dámájiráv into his power, imprisoned him and forced him to surrender half of his rights and conquests in Gujarát. Taking advantage of the absence of the Gáikwár and his army in the Dakhan, Jawán Mard Khán marched into Sorath. He first visited Ghogha, and then levying tribute in Gohilwad advanced into Kathiawad and marched against Nawanagar, and, after collecting a contribution from the Jám, returned to Áhmedábád. In 1752, as soon as the news reached Gujarát that the Maráthás’ share in the province had been divided between the Peshwa and Gáikwár, Momín Khán, who was always quarrelling with the Gáikwár’s agent, sending Varajlál his steward to Bálájiráv Peshwa begged him to include Cambay in his share and send his agent in place of the Gáikwár’s agent. Bálájiráv agreed, and from that time an agent of the Peshwa was established at Cambay. In the same year Raghunáthráv, brother of the Peshwa, entering Gujarát took possession of the Rewa and Mahi Kántha districts and marched on Surat. Shiaji Dhangar was appointed in Shevakrám’s place as Dámáji’s deputy, and Krishnáji came to collect the Peshwa’s share.\n\n;Bharuch Independent, 1752\nUp to this time the city of Bharuch had remained part of the Nizám’s personal estate, managed by Abdúllah Beg, whom, with the title of Nek Álam Khán, Ásif Jáh the late Nizám-ul-Mulk had chosen his deputy. On the death of Abdúllah Beg in 1752 the emperor appointed his son to succeed him with the same title as his father, while he gave to another son, named Mughal Beg, the title of Khertalab Khán. During the contests for succession that followed upon the death of the Nizám in 1752, no attempt was made to enforce the Nizám’s claims on the lands of Bharuch; and for the future, except for the share of the revenue paid to the Maráthás, the governors of Bharuch were practically independent.\n\n;Pándurang Pandit Repulsed at Áhmedábád, 1752.\nThe Peshwa now sent Pándurang Pandit to levy tribute from his share of Gujarát, and that officer crossing the Mahi marched upon Cambay. Momín Khán prepared to oppose him, but the Pandit made friendly overtures, and eventually Momín Khán not only paid the sum of Rupees 7000 for grass and grain for the Pandit’s troops, but also lent him four small cannon. Pándurang Pandit then marched upon Áhmedábád, and encamping near the Kankaria Lake laid siege to the city which was defended by Jawán Mard Khán. During the siege Pándurang Pandit, sending some troops, ravaged Nikol, part of the lands of Áli Muhammad Khán Bahádur, the author of the ''Mirăt-i-Áhmedi''. Meanwhile, as the operations against Áhmedábád made no progress, Pándurang Pandit made offers of peace. These Jawán Mard Khán accepted, and on receiving from Jawán Mard Khán the present of a mare and a small sum of money under the name of entertainment, the Marátha leader withdrew to Sorath.\n\n;Marátha Invasion.\nAbout this time the Peshwa released Dámáji Gáikwár on his promise to help the Peshwa’s brother Raghunáthráv, who was shortly afterwards despatched with an army to complete the conquest of Gujarát. Meanwhile Jawán Mard Khán’s anxiety regarding the Maráthás was for a time removed by the departure of Pándurang Pandit. And, as the harvest season had arrived, he with his brother Zoráwar Khán Bábi, leaving Muhammad Mubáriz Sherwáni behind as his deputy, set out from Áhmedábád to levy tribute from the chiefs of the Sabarkantha. Certain well informed persons, who had heard of Raghunáthráv’s preparations for invading Gujarát, begged Jawán Mard Khán not to leave the city but to depute his brother Zoráwar Khán Bábi to collect the tribute. Jawán Mard Khán, not believing their reports, said that he would not go more than from forty-five to sixty miles from the city, and that, should the necessity of any more distant excursion arise, he would entrust it to his brother. Jawán Mard Khán then marched from the city, levying tribute until he arrived on the Pálanpur frontier about seventy-five miles north of Áhmedábád. Here meeting Muhammad Bahádur Jhálori, the governor of Palanpur, Jawán Mard Khán was foolishly induced to join him in plundering the fertile districts of Sirohi, till at last he was not less than 150 miles from his head-quarters. Meanwhile Raghunáthráv, joining Dámáji Gáikwár, entered suddenly by an unusual route into Gujarát, and news reached Áhmedábád that the Maráthás had crossed the Narmada river. On this the townspeople sent messenger after messenger to recall Jawán Mard Khán, and building up the gateways prepared for defence, while the inhabitants of the suburbs, leaving their houses, crowded with their families into the city for protection. Raghunáthráv, hearing that Jawán Mard Khán and his army were absent from the city, pressed on by forced marches, and crossing the Mahi river despatched an advance corps under Vithal Sukhdev. Kosáji, proprietor of Nadiad, at Dámáji Gáikwár’s invitation also marched towards Áhmedábád, plundering Mehmúdábád Khokhri, only three miles from the city. In the meantime Vithal Sukhdev reached Kaira (Kheda), and taking with him the chief man of that place, Muhammad Daurán, son of Muhammad Bábi, continued his march. He was shortly joined by Raghunáthráv, and the combined forces now proceeded to Áhmedábád and encamped by the Kánkaria lake.\n\nNext day Raghunáthráv moved his camp to near the tomb of Hazrat Sháh Bhíkan, on the bank of the Sabarmati river to the south-west of the city. Raghunáthráv now proceeded to invest the city, distributing his thirty to forty thousand horse into three divisions. The operations against the north of the city were entrusted to Dámáji Gáikwár; those on the east to Gopál Hari; while the troops on the south and west were under the personal command of Raghunáthráv and his officers.\n\nAfter leaving Sirohi, Jawán Mard Khán had gone westwards to Tharad and Vav, so that the first messengers failed to find him. One of the later messengers, Mándan by name, who had not left Áhmedábád until the arrival of Raghunáthráv at the Kánkaria lake, made his way to Váv and Tharád, and told Jawán Mard Khán what had happened. Jawán Mard Khán set out by forced marches for Radhanpur, and leaving his family and the bulk of his army at Pátan, he pushed on with 200 picked horsemen to Kadi and from that to Áhmedábád, contriving to enter the city by night. The presence of Jawán Mard Khán raised the spirits of the besieged, and the defence was conducted with ardour. In spite of their watchfulness, a party of about 700 Maráthás under cover of night succeeded in scaling the walls and entering the city. Here they could do any mischief they were discovered and driven out of the town with much slaughter. The bulk of the besieging army, which had advanced in hopes that this party would succeed in opening one of the city gates, were forced to retire disappointed. Raghunáthráv now made proposals for peace, but Jawán Mard Khán did not think it consistent with his honour to accept them. On his refusal, the Marátha general redoubled his efforts and sprung several mines, but owing to the thickness of the city walls no practicable breach was effected. Jawán Mard Khán now expelled the Marátha deputies, and continuing to defend the city with much gallantry contrived at night to introduce into the town by detachments a great portion of his army from Pátan. At length, embarrassed by want of provisions and the clamour of his troops for pay, he extorted Rupees 50,000 from the official classes. As Jawán Mard was known to have an ample supply of money of his own this untimely meanness caused great discontent. The official classes who were the repository of all real power murmured against his rule and openly advocated the surrender of the city, and Jawán Mard Khán, much against his will, was forced to enter into negotiations with Raghunáthráv.\n\nRaghunáthráv was so little hopeful of taking Áhmedábád that he had determined, should the siege last a month longer, to depart on condition of receiving the one-fourth share of the revenue and a safe conduct. Had Jawán Mard Khán only disbursed his own money to pay the troops, and encouraged instead of disheartening the official class, he need never have lost the city. At last to Raghunáthráv’s relief, Jawán Mard Khán was reduced to treat for peace through Vithal Sukhdev. It was arranged that the Maráthás should give Jawán Mard Khán the sum of Rupees 1 lákh to pay his troops, besides presenting him with an elephant and other articles of value. It was at the same time agreed that the garrison should leave the city with all the honours of war. And that, for himself and his brothers, Jawán Mard Khán should receive, free from any Marátha claim, the districts of Patan, Vadnagar, Sami, Munjpur, Visnagar, Tharád, Kheralu, and Rádhanpur with Tervada and Vijapur. It was further agreed that one of Jawán Mard Khán’s brothers should always serve the Maráthás with 300 horse and 500 foot, the expenses of the force being paid by the Maráthás. It was also stipulated that neither the Peshwa’s army nor his deputy’s, nor that of any commander should enter Jawán Mard Khán’s territory, and that in Áhmedábád no Marátha official should put up at any of the Khán Bahádur’s mansions, new or old, or at any of those belonging to his brothers followers or servants. Finally that the estates of other members of the family, namely Kaira, Kasba Mátar and Bánsa Mahudha, which belonged to Muhammad Khán, Khán Daurán, and Ábid Khán were not to be meddled with, nor were encroachments to be allowed on the lands of Káyam Kúli Khán or of Zoráwar Khán. This agreement was signed and sealed by Raghunáthráv, with Dámáji Gáikwár (half sharer), Malhárráv Holkar, Jye Ápa Sindhia, Rámchandar Vithal Sukhdev, Sakhárám Bhagvant, and Mádhavráv Gopálráv as securities. The treaty was then delivered to Jawán Mard Khán, and he and his garrison, marching out with the honours of war, the Maráthás took possession of Áhmedábád on 2 April 1753.\n\nOn leaving Áhmedábád Jawán Mard Khán retired to Pátan. At Áhmedábád Raghunáthráv with Dámáji arranged for the government of the city, appointing Shripatráv his deputy. He then marched into Jhalawad to levy tribute from the Limbdi and Wadhwan chiefs; and was so far successful that Harbhamji of Limbḍi agreed to pay an annual tribute of Rupees 40,000. As the rainy season was drawing near Raghunáthráv returned to Dholka, while Patel Vithal Sukhdev forced Muhammad Bahádur, the governor of Palanpur, to consent to a payment of Rupees 1,15,000. From Dholka, Raghunáthráv went to Tárápur, about twelve miles north of Cambay (Khambhat), and compelled Momín Khán to submit to an annual payment of Rupees 10,000. At the same time Áli Muhammad Khán Bahádur, the author of the ''Mirăt-i-Áhmedi'', was appointed collector of customs, and his former grants were confirmed and he was allowed to retain his villages of Sayadpur and Kûjádh close to Áhmedábád, as well as the village of Pánmûl in Vijápur. Dámáji Gáikwár, after levying tribute in the Vátrak Kántha, went to Kapadvanj, which he took from Sher Khán Bábi. From Kapadvanj he passed to Naḍiád and appointed Shevakrái to collect his half share of the revenue of Gujarát.\n\n;Mughal Coinage Ceases\nIn the Áhmedábád mint, coin ceased to be struck in the emperor’s name and the suburbs of the city which had been deserted during the siege were not again inhabited. The Kolis commenced a system of depredation, and their outrages were so daring that women and children were sometimes carried off and sold as slaves. After the rains were over (1754) Shetuji, commander of the Áhmedábád garrison, and Shankarji, governor of Víramgám, were sent to collect tribute from Sorath. Though the imperial power was sunk so low, the emperor was allowed to confer the post of Kázi of the city on Kázi Rûkn-ul-Hak Khán who arrived at Áhmedábád and assumed office.\n\n;Failure of an Attempt on Cambay, 1753\nAt the close of the year Shripatráv, who was anxious to acquire Cambay, marched against Momín Khán. After two doubtful battles in which the Maráthás gained no advantage, it was agreed that Momín Khán should pay a sum of Rupees 7000, and Shripatráv departed from Áhmedábád early in 1754. The Kolis.When the Kolis heard of the ill success of the Maráthás at Cambay, they revolted and Rághoshankar was sent to subdue them. In an engagement near Luhára in Bahyal in the Gáikwár’s territory about eighteen miles east of Áhmedábád, Rághoshankar scattered the Kolis, but they again collected and forced the Maráthás to retire. At this time Shetuji and Shankarji returned from Sorath, where they had performed the pilgrimage to Dwarka. Shetuji was sent to the Bhíl district against the Kolis. He was unsuccessful, and was so ashamed of his failure that he returned to the Dakhan and Dandu Dátátri was appointed in his place.\n\nIn this year died Nek Álam Khán II, governor of Broach. He was succeeded by his brother Khertalab Khán who expelled his nephew Hámid Beg, son of Nek Álam Khán. Hámid Beg took refuge in Surat. At Bálásinor a dispute arose between Sher Khán Bábi and a body of Arab mercenaries who took possession of a hill, but in the end came to terms.\n\n;Maráthás Attack Cambay, 1754\nWith the Peshwa’s permission his deputy Bhagvantráv marched on Cambay. But Varajlál, Momín Khán’s steward, who was then at Poona, sent word to his master, who prepared himself against any emergency. When Bhagvantráv arrived at Cambay he showed no hostile intentions and was well received by Momín Khán. Subsequently a letter from Bhagvantráv to Sálim Jamádár at Áhmedábád ordering him to march against Cambay fell into Momín Khán’s hands. He at once surrounded Bhagvantráv’s house and made him prisoner. When the Peshwa heard that Bhagvantráv had been captured, he ordered Ganesh Ápa, governor of Jambusar, as well as the governors of Víramgám, Dhandhuka, and other places to march at once upon Cambay. They went and besieged the town for three months, but without success. Eventually Shripatráv, the Peshwa’s deputy, sent the author of the ''Mirăt-i-Áhmedi'' to negotiate, and it was agreed that Bhagvantráv should be released and that no alteration should be made in the position of Momín Khán. Shortly afterwards Shripatráv was recalled by the Peshwa and his place supplied by an officer of the name of Rágho. About this time Khertalab Khán, governor of Broach, died, and quarrels arose regarding the succession. Ultimately Hamid Beg, nephew of Khertalab Khán, obtained the post, and he afterwards received an imperial order confirming him as governor, and bestowing on him the title of Neknám Khán Bahádur.\n\nAt Delhi, during 1754, the emperor Ahmad Shah Bahadur was deposed, and Âzíz-ud-dín, son of Jahándár Sháh, was raised to the throne with the title of Alamgir II.\n", "* Mahárája Vakhatsingh, Fifty-ninth Viceroy, 1748\n", "\n", "\n\n===Bibliography===\n\n* \n\n\n\n" ]

[ "\n\n'''Island of Krčedin''' or '''Krčedinska Ada''' () is a river island in Serbia. It is located on the left bank of the Danube across the village of Krčedin, in the municipality of Inđija, Autonomous Province of Vojvodina. The uninhabited island is part of the \n. It is one of the largest remaining natural pastures in the Podunavlje, known for the traditional stock breeding, with only basic human interference.\n", "\nThe island stretches approximately between the Danube's , on the river's left bank. Across the Danube, a bit further from the bank, is the village of Krčedin, after which the island was named. Though it is geographically in the Bačka region, administratively it belongs to the municipality of Inđija (so as the village), in the Syrmia region. Right north of the island, closer than the village of Krčedin, is the village of Gardinovci, in the municipality of Titel. Just west of the island the Beška Bridge crosses the Danube while to the northeast are the village of Kovilj and the Kovilj Monastery.\n", "\nThe island is roughly shaped as a rounded triangle, with the top on the north. It is located in the valley of the Danube and on the east extends into the micro-region of Kožjak, within the Marsh of Kovilj (''Koviljski Rit''). It was created when the Danube shifted its course to the south and cut through its own meander curving around the northern slope of the Koševac Hill on the Syrmian side, northeast of the village of Krečedin. It appears as if being embedded into the Bačka mainland and the narrow arm of the Danube which separates it from the land is called Dunavac (\"Little Danube\") on the west and Arm of Gardinovac on the east side. This arm then branches into numerous smaller arms and ponds. Still, during the normal water level, majority of the island remains dry, while most of it got flooded during the rainy season and high water levels. The highest point on the island is .\n\nThe island is long, wide and covers an area of .\n\nAcross the river, to the west, are two archaeological sites, and .\n", "\nThe island is rich in fresh water and grass. It is also partially forested, mostly by the willows, some of which originate from c. 1810s.\n", "\nThe arm which separates the island from the mainland is a rich, natural spawning area for common carp, northern pike, Prussian carp and sterlet. The Island of Krčedin is one of the largest spawning areas of common carp in Europe.\n\nBirds inhabiting the island include storks, herons, mallards and cormorants. In total, there are 172 bird species on the island, of which 103 are declared rare. Among them are the white tailed eagle, great white heron, black stork, Eurasian eagle-owl and saker falcon.\n\nDuring the hot summers and the low water level, the Dunavac partially dries up, so the island can be visited by bicycle. The natural bridge is also, albeit rarely, used by wild animals to reach the island, like deer, jackals or wild boars.\n", "\nThe villagers from Krčedin were the first who began transporting their livestock to the island, by the ferries, in the 19th century. They were later followed by the inhabitants of other neighboring villages: Kovilj, Šajkaš, Gardinovci, Čortanovci, Stari Slankamen. The animals are transported in the early spring and left until the late autumn to live completely freely as the island is uninhabited, without natural predators and with preserved natural habitat since it is undisturbed by the urban development. The livestock includes horses, sheep, cattle, pigs and donkeys. The well fed animals and their young born on the island are returned to the mainland, into the stables only when it gets too cold or rainy, though horses and pigs are sometimes left on the island even during the winter. Some rare breeds, like the mangalica pigs, local breed of the shepherd dog pulin or the Podolian cattle are also kept on the island, so as a lots of poultry, like hens, turkeys and peacocks. There were 80 Podolians in 2017, out of 400 in the entire Serbia.\n\nAs of 2017 the island numbered 1,000 cattle and pigs, 200 horses and over 100 Balkan donkeys. Donkeys are becoming more and more popular, due to the high prices of their milk. In the 1990s however, over 6,000 animals were kept on the island.\n", "\nThe island is part of a much larger Special Natural Reserve \"Koviljsko-Petrovaradinski Rit\", a wetland along the Danube. Municipality organizes photo safari-like tours to the island from May to September. They are conceived as one-day excursions with the small groups of visitors.\n", "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" ]

[ "Mathilda Roos\n'''Lovisa Mathilda Roos''' (pen name, '''M. Rs.'''; 2 August 1852 - 17 July 1908) was a Swedish writer.\n", "Lovisa Mathilda Roos was born 2 August 1852, in Stockholm. Her parents were Malte Leopold Roos (1806-1882), a major at Svea Artillery Regiment, and Mathilda (Tilda) Beata Meurk (born 1821). She was educated at home and at Åhlinska skolan. Remaining unmarried, she lived with his sister Anna and sometimes also with Laura Fitinghoff, with whom she built the Furuliden house in Stocksund, which later became a rest home for women.\n\nRoos' novels usually dealt with women's issues and misconduct in society. She was not afraid to address sensitive subjects at that time including lesbian love in ''Den första kärleken'' (The First Love). A religious crisis in the 1880s effected her later books. In the novel ''Hvit ljung'' (White Lung), she takes up the unclear living conditions of a teacher and rape. This is considered to have contributed to a government decision that greatly improved teachers' salaries. In women's political pamphlets, she addressed Ellen Key's ideas, ''Ett ord till fröken Ellen Key och till den svenska kvinnan'' (A word to Miss Ellen Key and to the Swedish woman), 1896. Roos died 17 July 1908, in Danderyd.\n", ";Fiction\n\n* ''Marianne'', 1881. Libris 8221523\n* ''Vårstormar'', 1883. Libris 12755378\n* ''Berättelser och skizzer'', 1884.

[ "\nThe '''Bèze''' is a French river in the Côte-d'Or department, in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region.\nIt is a right tributary of the Saône, and thus a sub-tributary of the Rhône.\n\nThe river rises in the Crétanne cave in the village of Bèze, then crosses several communes in its course before entering the Saône in Vonges.\nIts source is the outlet of a vast underground network fed by the Tille and the Venelle.\nA walk has been laid out around the spring, which is a major tousist attraction in the region. \n\nThe watershed of the Bèze river and its main tributary, the Albane, irrigates the Saône Vingeanne country, over a total area of \nAlong its course the landscape alternates between forested areas and areas of large crops, livestock meadows and ponds. \nThe basin is home to four natural areas of interest for their ecology, fauna and flora.\n\nHuman occupation along the river began as early as the Paleolithic. \nIn Roman Gaul the sanctuary of Mirebeau-sur-Bèze, on an important axis of communication, was an important place in the region. \nThe site was occupied by the Legio VIII Augusta, who built an imposing military camp. \nIn the Middle Ages the river saw the foundation of the Abbaye Saint-Pierre de Bèze, a gathering place for the pilgrimage of Saint Prudent de Narbonne.\nIn the modern era the Poudrerie nationale de Vonges was founded at the mouth of the Bèze, which it used for industrial purposes.\nIt remains an important heritage building on the water.\n\nThe fauna and flora are similar to those associated with the Saône ecosystem, with a predominance of trout. \nMany hydraulic structures, however, have a strong impact on the river species. \nThe water quality of the Bèze and its tributaries is considered mediocre due to nitrates from agricultural and livestock activities along the river's course. \nThe Bèze and its watershed do not present any major natural hazards.\n", "Washing station on the Bèze in Bézouotte.\n\nThe source of the Bèze is north-east of Dijon in the Bèze village at an altitude of .\nIt rises from a basin at the foot of the Kimmeridgian limestones and immediately forms a river wide. \nOther sources, connected with the underground river discovered in 1950 by the Dijon Speleo-Club, originate under the old cemetery of Bèze downstream. \nThe river then travels in a southeasterly direction to discharge into the Saône, of which it is a tributary on the right bank, in the commune of Vonges, at an altitude of of altitude, where it is wide. \nIts average slope is 0.9%.\n\nLa Bèze flows through the center of the \"Bèze-Albane\" catchment basin in the heart of the Saône Vingeanne country, in the department of Côte-d'Or, with a total area of . The river is characterized by its source in Bèze, a remarkable spring fueled by a large underground network.\nIts watershed contains three tributaries and is bounded on the south by its confluence with the Saône.\n\n=== Source ===\n==== Location ====\nThe Bèze in Côte-d'Or.\n\nThe source of the Bèze is one of the most important karst springs in metropolitan France. \nThe river originates in an underground lake in a cave called La Crétanne in the immediate vicinity of the agglomeration of Bèze, in Côte-d'Or, at the foot of a cliff overlooking the spring, in the basin called \"la douy\".\nThe lake is discharged into the open through a tunnel similar to the Fontaine de Vaucluse.\nThe tunnel, called the Salle Blanc (White Room), is with a ceiling, and can be entered by a small staircase at the foot of the cliff.\nThe well-known La Crétanne cave is underground.\nIt is about long, with four upstream tunnels and one downstream tunnel, the source of the Bèze.\n\n==== Underground network ====\n\nThe underground network of the Bèze extends over , with a vertical drop of . \nThe source of the Bèze, the outlet of this hydraulic network, is the most important karst spring of the Côte-d'Or department. \nThe Crétanne cave is the best explored part of this vast network.\n\nThe underground network of Bèze consists of four sumps, or underground water channels:\n*The source of the Bèze sump was prospected by the S.C. Dijon (Speleo Club de Dijon) and the S.C. Paris for the first time on 25 October 1953 along and a depth of . In 1972 the SHAG explored about more and then the S.C. Dijon, in 1974, reached the junction with the cave by crossing this sump of , which proved to be prolonged by side annexes, including a very dangerous downstream duct, for a total of .\n*The pier sump (or sump 1) was unclogged in 1964, 1966 and 1967. The entrance was cleared during the year 1968. The embedded conduit between two strata runs for . It ends in a flooded well constituting the junction of several galleries. The main one was explored in 1975 up to from the entrance and to a depth of . The junction with the Lac Blanc sump was reached in 1976. In 1976 a secondary downstream gallery, beginning from the entrance, extended for and then emerged into a dry area.\n*The Lac Blanc sump (or sump 2) was discovered in 1953 by the S.C. Dijon and the S.C. Paris and then explored for in a slightly immersed gallery to a submerged shaft at a depth of . Ancillary sumps, close to the entrance, were explored to about . In 1976 the main water supply was located from the entrance, the \"Puits de la Chaussette\". The junction with the pier sump was formed by a fracture long and high. A bell-shaped cavity was then discovered from the entrance. Three extensions were explored in 1978 and 1979: a very narrow crack surfaced in a small duct terminated by a flooded crack, a vast flooded chimney and a small upper network.\n*The sumps of the scree gallery (or sumps 3 and 4) have no apparent current and contain many clay deposits. The first measures and the second .\n\n==== Geology ====\nDetail of the cliff that overlooks the upwelling at Bèze\nEntrance to the Bèze cave\nThe Crétanne cave is made of limestone. \nThe set of galleries that constitutes the underground Bèze river have developed in layers of limestones that are not very thick ( on average) and were formed in the upper part of the Oxfordian or Astartian ageas. This formation overlays a thick mass of limestone of quite variable nature from the Rauracian and Sequanian ages, with thickness of over , which constitutes the basement of the limestone plateaus to the north of Bèze.\n\nThe source is covered by limestone and marl of the Kimmeridgian age, which form a small cuesta visible to the south-east of the village of Bèze, under the compact limestone of the Portland Group. \nThe ceiling of the cave is covered with kaolinite while the walls are covered with manganese oxide in some places.\nThe set of galleries has a slight but steady incline towards the south, where it is covered by patches of Cretaceous rocks and then by the Tertiary sediments of La Bresse. \nThe karst in the region must have been established either at the end of the Oligocene, or during the Miocene.\n\nThe galleries of the Bèze cave are parallel to the stratification of the layers. \nThey are wide, with flat roofs that corresponds to the base surface of the limestone beds. \nIt seems that are several levels of galleries. The highest are visible at the base of the first room and are all clogged. \nThe main galleries contain a number of vertical chimneys that could have been formed as a result of upward erosion by water under pressure.\nThe galleries are oriented in two directions.\nThe principal gallery is oriented a few degrees east of north, parallel to the direction of the tectonic faults and the main joints of the region).\nThe second is essentially perpendicular to the previous one and also corresponds to a joint direction.\n\nThe sediments of the Bèze cave were the subject of detailed study in the proceedings of the 1st International Congress of Speleology.\nThe filling mud consists of siliceous sands identical to the albian sands found further south of the Bèze.\nThe sands indicate the existence of the basin of an underground river of an old albian cover that has now disappeared.\nIn addition, the greatest part of the filler consists of fine sand and silt that is increasingly fine towards the top of the series. \nSeveral cycles of sedimentation separated by calcite floors can be observed. \nFinally, varves are present in the upper galleries, formed during flooding, which are separated by darker layers and particles of finer size, deposited during periods of low water.\n\n==== Hydrology at source ====\nView of the karst spring in Bèze and the walkway around it\n\nThe source of the Bèze consists of two openings:\n*The first, at the southern end of the underground river, where the water comes almost vertically through a sump obstructed by large collapsed blocks\n*The second, the main opening, is about further north at the end of the Salle Blanc. The flow is greater than in the other outlet due to the presence of a sump. The Speleo Clubs of Dijon and Paris undertook penetration tests which showed the existence upstream of flooded galleries and then an almost vertical well of in depth leading to more flooded galleries.\n\nA sump to drain the waters of the underground river is a short distance from the first water outlet, about from the Bèze karst spring, but is insufficient to drain all the waters during flood periods.\n\nThe average annual flow of the river at Bèze is . \nThere are significant variations, with the low flow rate around and the maximum at times of flood reaching .\nThe flow of the Bèze at its source was observed during a period of 27 years from 1981 to 2012 at the station in Bèze called the \"Ferme de Rome\" .\n\nSign of the Bèze in Noiron-sur-Bèze \n==== Origin of the waters ====\nThe river originates in an upwelling of the waters of the aquifer under the forest of Velours in the commune of Lux, Côte-d'Or. \nThis is fed by water from the Tille and Venelle rivers.\nThe Speleo-Club of Dijon has explored the source since 14 July 1950.\nExploration continues today by scuba diving and by systematic study of the discovered network.\nH. Tintant says that most of the waters of the Bèze come from underground drainage of the immense karst plateau consisting of rauracian and sequanian limestones forming a quadrilateral limited to the north by the impenetrable Argovian marls from Crécey-sur-Tille to Occey and the valley of the Vingeanne. \nCovered by dry valleys and perforated with numerous funnels (several hundred in the Velours forest alone), this plateau, which measures more than , is covered with very permeable rocks with a small but discernible slope to the south. \nThe underground river feeding the Bèze at its source probably collects 50% of the annual rainfall on the plateau.\n\nFluorescein tests carried out by the Speleo-Club of Dijon in 1970 showed that the waters of Venelle colored those of the Bèze in the caves of the spring.\n\n==== Fauna and flora====\n'''' proche de l'aselle de Bourgogne, endémique à la grotte de Bèze.\n\nLa grotte de Bèze est dotée d'une faune et d'une flore spécifique. Elle abrite ainsi une espèce endémique : l'aselle de Bourgogne, un aselle d'eau douce, étudié en 1969 par J.-P. Henry et G. Magniez.\nLa rivière souterraine héberge d'autres crustacés tels que des niphargus et l'on peut parfois y rencontrer des poissons (vairon, chabot, truite) provenant des pertes de la Venelle ou ayant remonté l'un des siphons ainsi que cinq espèces de chauves-souris. \nLa flore est composée de fougères qui ont colonisé les cheminées géologiques.\nOn peut également y observer divers types de mousses et quelques champignons.\n\n==== La résurgence ====\nLa promenade aménagée autour de la résurgence, à Bèze.\nThe source of the Bèze.\n\nLa résurgence de la Bèze est située \"au point précis où le plateau calcaire séquanien s'enfouit sous la ''cuesta'' plus argileuse ou Kiméridgien}}, de façon \"tout à fait comparable à celle des nombreuses résurgences du Chatillonnais au pied de la ''cuesta'' argovienne\n\nSelon le géographe François Robert, en 1789, la résurgence de la Bèze est l'une des quatre plus considérables existant en France. \nCette résurgence est le lieu le plus photographié de Bèze. Certains éditeurs de cartes postales n'hésitent pas à améliorer l'image en grattant la plaque de verre du négatif pour obtenir un jaillissement plus impressionnant.\nLa promenade de la source, autour de la résurgence, est un site classé dont l'aménagement date du 18th century et composée d'arbres ayant de 200 à 300 ans.\n\n==== Aménagement ====\nPanneau à Marandeuil.\n\nC'est en 1970 que la municipalité de Bèze et son maire, Robert Poinsot, a décidé l'aménagement de la grotte, propriété de la commune, pour le tourisme. Celle-ci a ouvert ses portes aux visiteurs en avril 1971.\n\nLes grottes se visitent en barque sur une distance d'environ sur le lac souterrain, à une température de \nLes nombreuses stalactites et stalagmites aux formes singulières (drapés, sombreros, obus...) font partie de l'attractivité du lieu qui est l'un des sites touristiques les plus importants de la région dijonnaise. Le nombre de visiteurs ne cesse en effet d'augmenter : 14,390 en 2007, en 2008, 18,224 en 2009, en 2010 et 20,193 en 2011.\nDe célèbres stalactites nommées « les andouilles de Bèze », en référence à la gastronomie locale, sont tombées lors d'une crue. La stalactite la plus admirée est l'« oreille d’éléphant ». Trois guides professionnels escortent les visiteurs à bord de barques sans moteur qui sont déplacées grâce à un réseau de cordages installé au plafond de la grotte.\nLa grotte sert régulièrement pour l'entraînement des pompiers de Dijon mais aussi Paris, et même pour l’armée.\n\n=== Bassin versant de la Bèze-Albane ===\n==== Description ====\nCarte du bassin versant (en vert).\n\nLe bassin versant Bèze-Albane est situé dans une région à climat continental exactement similaire à celui de Dijon. \"Les pluies d’été sont souvent orageuses, l’échauffement inégal du sol augmentant les phénomènes convectifs. Les hivers, humides et relativement rudes, se passent rarement sans chute de neige.\"\n\nLa géologie du bassin est constituée, à sa tête, de formations calcaires de l’ère secondaire. \"Le centre-ouest du bassin (de Noiron-sur-Bèze jusqu’à la source de l’Albane) est constitué de formations secondaires du Crétacé et de formations tertiaires anté-Pliocène. Cette série du Crétacé est bien complète forme un monoclinal à léger plongement sud-ouest où la craie cénomano-turonienne forme une côte au-dessus des argiles de l’Albien. Elle donne des collines arrondies typiques.}} Les basses plaines (vallées de l’Albane et de la Bèze) sont constituées d’alluvions récentes carbonatées sur le bassin de la Bèze mais argilo-limoneuses sur le bassin de l’Albane. \"L’amont du bassin de la Bèze est alimenté par un important réseau karstique issu en partie des pertes de la Tille et de la Venelle. Une partie des eaux de pluie vient alimenter ces nappes. La source de la Bèze est l’exutoire de cet important réseau}}.\n\n==== Plan d'eau ====\nDe nombreuses peupleraies sont exploitées le long de la Bèze et de ses affluents. Ici la parcelle est située sur les bords de l'Albane, à Saint-Léger-Triey.\n\nSitué sur le bassin Rhône-Méditerranée, le bassin versant Bèze-Albane est d'une superficie de , pour une longueur de dont représentent le lit mineur de la Bèze. Les principaux affluents de la Bèze qui le constituent sont : l’Albane (), le Chiron () et le Pannecul (). Plusieurs études ont montré que le bassin versant topographique situé sur la commune de Bèze, qui est seulement de , serait au centre d'un réseau hydrologique plus vaste, entre 225 et , vraisemblablement de .\n\nLes plus hauts reliefs culminent à environ sur la tête de bassin.\nLe plan d'eau de la Bèze et de l'Albane (son affluent) bénéficie d'une forte ruralité \"avec seulement 2,1 % de la surface occupée par des sols artificialisés. À eux seuls, les forêts et les cultures représentent plus de 95 % du territoire, avec deux fois plus d’espaces de cultures que de forêts. Les prairies sont peu présentes avec une occupation de 5,5 % du territoire et 8,6 % des territoires agricoles}} Les cultures principales sont les céréales et les oléagineux. Les bois et forêts sont nombreux sur le bassin et représentent une part non négligeable de terrain. Sont traversés par la Bèze, parmi les plus vastes espaces boisés : la forêt domaniale de Mirebeau, le bois de Bèze, le bois Popin, le bois Varve, le bois de Pont Bourdin et la forêt de la Vervotte. De grandes peupleraies sont également traversées, notamment dans les basses vallées, lieux d’exploitation populicoles, notamment à Belleneuve, Mirebeau, ou encore Saint-Léger. \"Certaines prairies ont disparu au cours des temps, au profit des grandes cultures. Celles-ci étaient traditionnellement présentes aux abords des cours d’eau. Le témoin de cet héritage est encore visible sur les cartes IGN au e par les noms des parcellaires le long de la Bèze et de l’Albane : « les prairies », « les grands prés », « le pré des moines », « prés des marais »}}\n\n==== Hydrology ====\nTopographic map of the Bèze\nThe Bèze has moderate seasonal fluctuations in flow, with higher rainfall in winter bringing the average monthly flow rate to between from December to March inclusive, with a maximum in January. \nStarting in March the monthly flow rate gradually drops to the low summer levels from July to September, with a monthly average flow rate down to in August. \nHowever, the minimum flow for 3 consecutive days of the month can drop to during a dry five-year period.\nThe average flow over the year is . \nThe level of the river does not begin to rise slowly until after five or six days of continuous rainfall.\n\nFile:Bèze hydrological station - average monthly flow m3 per sec.jpgAverage monthly flow m3/s as of 2012 at the Bèze hydrological station\n\n\nFlooding is never very significant since the river benefits from the regulating effect of the large underground water table.\nThe instantaneous flow for peak flood is and the maximum for a five year flood is .\nThis rises to for a ten year period, or a 20 year period and for a fifty year period.\nThe greatest instantaneous flow recorded was on 18 December 1982, and the greatest daily average was on 21 December 1982.\nThis flood was lower than the 20 year level, so was by no means exceptional.\nIt might be expected every 15 years on average.\n\nThe amount of water that runs off the Bèze basin (rainfall less evaporation / absorption) is estimated at annually, which is moderately high but of the same order of magnitude as France as a whole, but less than that of the Saône river basin, which has annually.\nThe specific flow reaches per square kilometer of the basin.\n\n==== Paysages ====\nPaysage de plaines et de bosquets, à Noiron-sur-Bèze.\n\n\"Le système paysager est qualifié de « mixte » : le contraste entre les massifs forestiers et les espaces de grandes cultures est très présent.}} Les reliefs sont toutefois plus contrastés et les paysages plus vallonnés au nord-ouest du bassin sur les communes de Viévigne, Tanay, Belleneuve et dans le secteur de Noiron, Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur, Bèze et Bourberain. Les cours d’eau y sont plus encaissés, boisés et les villages sont souvent sur les hauteurs.\n\nCours de la Bèze à Bézouotte.\n\nLe bassin versant comporte quatre principales Zones naturelles d'intérêt écologique, faunistique et floristique (ou ZNIEFF) :\n* la ZNIEFF de type II () concernant la Forêt de Velours et de Fontaine-Française, s’étendant sur les territoires de Lux, Bourberain, Bèze et Viévigne.\n* la ZNIEFF de type II () appelée « la vallée de la Bèze » et concernant tous les proches territoires de la rivière Bèze, de la Commune de Bèze à celle de Vonges, avec entre autres la forêt domaniale de Mirebeau.\n* la ZNIEFF de type II () concernant la forêt de Longchamp, s’étendant sur les communes d'Étevaux, Saint-Léger-Triey (avec sa forêt domaniale également dans le périmètre où le bief du Tréman prend sa source), Lamarche-sur-Saône et Longchamp.\n* la ZNIEFF de type I (), comprise dans cette ZNIEFF 2 de la forêt de Longchamp et concernant l’étang de Saint-Léger-Triey (« Le Grand Étang »).\n* la ZNIEFF de type II () limitrophe au bassin concernant la vallée de la Saône de Vonges à Auxonne.\n* la ZNIEFF de type I () comprise dans la ZNIEFF II de la vallée de la Saône, s'étendant de Pontailler-sur-Saône à Auxonne.\n\n==== Affluents et masses d'eau ====\nQuatre masses d’eau de surface sont présentes sur le bassin versant de la Bèze : la Bèze, l’Albane, le Chiron et le Pannecul., ainsi que trois masses d’eau souterraines :\n* « » est \"constituée de calcaires jurassiques du seuil et des côtes et arrières côtes de Bourgogne dans BV Saône en RD.}} C'est une masse d’eau classée en ressource stratégique ;\n* « » est \"constituée de calcaires jurassiques sous couverture pied de côte bourguignonne.}} ;\n* « » est composée de \"formations variées du Dijonnais entre Ouche et Vingeanne\".\n\nL'affluent notable de la Bèze est l'Albane, dont elle reçoit les eaux en rive droite à Saint-Léger-Triey. La rivière reçoit également de l'eau depuis la source de Chaume, à au nord-ouest de Bèze, dans le canton de Fontaine-Française. Cette liaison souterraine a été démontrée par Spéléo-Club de Dijon en 1955, à la suite d'une brusque montée des eaux boueuses de la Bèze puis à une exploration des cavités.\n\nQuatre sources mineures sont présentes sur le bassin versant, en dehors de celle de la Bèze : la source de l’Albane à Magny-Saint-Médard, la source du Creux de Vau à Mirebeau-sur-Bèze, la source de la Fontaine du Gué à Noiron-sur-Bèze et les petites sources de Tanay.\n\n==== Vallée de la Bèze ====\n\nLa vallée de la Bèze est, en amont, constituée de formations calcaires du Jurassique. À partir de Noiron-sur-Bèze, le contexte calcaire laisse progressivement la place aux marnes. Elle s'étend sur une superficie de .\nLa Bèze traverse douze communes, toutes situées en Côte-d'Or : Bèze, Noiron-sur-Bèze, Mirebeau-sur-Bèze, Bézouotte, Cuiserey, Charmes, Marandeuil, Drambon, Tanay, Saint-Léger-Triey, Vonges et Pontailler-sur-Saône.\n\nLe bassin versant traverse sept cantons et sept communautés de communes, soit au total 41 communes. habitants, soit une densité de 33.7 hab/km sont concernés. Cinq communes comptent plus de habitants sur le bassin : Mirebeau-sur-Bèze, Belleneuve, Arc-sur-Tille, Pontailler-sur-Saône, et Lamarche-sur-Saône.\n\nÀ Charmes, \"pays des sources, fontaines et fossés d'eau}} du bassin versant de la Bèze, l'eau est à fleur du sol si bien que les habitants de la région nomment l'endroit le \"vivier\" Il s'agirait en réalité des douves d'un ancien château. Là, la Bèze est alimenté à un petit cours d'eau, le Gailloux. Une légende raconte qu'un habitant de Bézouotte, trompé par l'obscurité et éméché, y a plongé avec sa bicyclette.\n\nÀ Savolles, et même si la Bèze ne croise pas le territoire de cette commune, une réserve d'eau en cas d'incendie a été constituée sur la ligne de crête entre la Bèze et l'Albane, comblée dans les années 1950 lors de l'érection du château d'eau.\n\n====Albane valley====\nL'Albane à Saint-Léger-Triey, en direction de Vonges. Le cours d'eau rejoint la Bèze à plus au sud-est.\n\nLa vallée de l’Albane (or « Albanne » selon Badin et Quantin en 1847) présente un contexte argilo-marneux.\n\nL’Albane prend sa source au lieu-dit « La Ferme de l’Albane » sur la commune de Magny-Saint-Médard. et s'écoule sur avant de rejoindre la Bèze à, Saint-Léger-Triey, à quelques kilomètres avant la confluence avec la Saône.\n\nElle traverse les communes de : Magny-Saint-Médard, Savolles, Belleneuve, Binges, Trochères, Étevaux, Marandeuil, Drambon, Saint-Léger-Triey, Pontailler-sur-Saône et Lamarche-sur-Saône.\n\n==== Activités économiques et touristiques ====\nSentiers pédestres autour de Bèze.\n\nLes trois quarts du bassin versant abritent des parcours d’AAPPMA (au nombre de sept). La pêche est cependant une pratique en déclin et la principale activité pratiquée par ces associations est le rempoissonnement. La pisciculture se pratique au niveau des nombreux étangs artificiels présents sur la Bèze : l’étang de Bessey, l’étang de Noiron, l’étang Rougeot, l'étang de Drambon et l'étang à Marandeuil en dérivation du cours principal ainsi que, sur l’Albane : l’étang de Bouques, l’étang Pierre, le Grand Étang, l’étang Maladière et l’étang de la Bergerie. La production hydroélectrique demeure anecdotique : seule une turbine existe au niveau du déversoir de décharge, à Drambon.\n\nL’activité touristique est particulièrement présente sur les communes de Mirebeau-sur-Bèze et de Pontailler-sur-Saône, toutes deux stations vertes de vacances. Des sentiers pédestres, faisant partie du circuit du Val de Vingeanne, permettent de découvrir Bèze et ses environs.\n", "=== Au Paléolithique ===\nExemples de bifaces découverts en Bourgogne, de type similaire à ceux mis au jour à Bèze (musée archéologique de Dijon).\n\nLe site de la Roncière, à Bèze fait l'objet de nombreuses prospections. Des vestiges allant du Paléolithique ancien/moyen au Gallo-Romain y ont été découverts, et notamment des nucléus à lamelles (bloc de pierre débité pour produire des éclats ou des lames) de type « Orville », attestant une occupation du site au cours du Magdalénien moyen. Deux autres occupations, l'une à l'Aurignacien, l'autre au Périgordien supérieur, semblent se distinguer.\n\nDes restes d’animaux préhistoriques sont présents à l’entrée de la grotte de la Crétanne, tels que des dents de mammouth, des restes de rhinocéros laineux et d'hipparion.\n\n=== Le site antique de Mirebeau-sur-Bèze ===\ntuile fabriquée par les légionnaires de la 8th Légion Augusta campant à Mirebeau (ici, l'objet a été retrouvé à Strasbourg).\n\nMirebeau-sur-Bèze est situé en zone lingonne, en pleine convergence des frontières éduenne, lingonne et séquane ; la ville se situe en effet sur un axe important du réseau de voies de l'Est de la Gaule. Les découvertes archéologiques récentes font apparaître qu'un sanctuaire celtique et gallo-romain à Mirebeau est installé depuis la fin du 4th century en limite de plusieurs territoires et qu'\"il est intégré dans un pôle d'occupation associé à un habitat\".\nDécouvert en 1973 par René Goguey à la suite de prospections aériennes, le site a été fouillé de 1977 à 1982 lors de la construction d'un collège. De nouvelles fouilles, menées par J.P. Guillaumet de 1983 à 1986 ont permis de mettre au jour des vestiges laténiens. \nEn 2001 et 2006, de nouvelles recherches ont permis d'estimer la surface totale du site à \nPlusieurs périodes d'occupation ont pu être distinguées : La Tène B2-C1, La Tène 2DB Auguste précoce, les années 1940-70 et la période flavienne (durant laquelle un aqueduc est construit.). \nIl apparaît que l'évolution de ce sanctuaire a été influencée par la présence militaire romaine : un premier camp, lors de la guerre des Gaules (58-40 av. J.-C.), a d'abord défendu le site sacré alors qu'un second, à l'est de l'agglomération antique a accueilli la Legio VIII Augusta, cette fois lors de la ''Pax Romana'', cantonnée là de 70 à 90 ap. J.-C. en raison de troubles survenus chez les Lingons.\n\nExemple de fortifications défendant un camp romain comme celui de Mirebeau (ici, reconstitution d'une portion d'enceinte au MuséoParc d'Alésia).\n\nLe camp romain de Mirebeau-sur-Bèze mesurait sur et avait une superficie de Il pouvait abriter les soldats de la légion VIII Augusta. De nombreuses infrastructures ont été retrouvées : des logements, un hôpital, des entrepôts, un atelier, un ''forum'' et des thermes, ainsi que des tuiles estampillées.\nL’enceinte était imposante et composée de fossés-talus puis d'un rempart en terre, bois et pierres. Des portes monumentales canalisaient les passages.\n\nPar ailleurs, le méandre de la Bèze porte des traces d’aménagement : \"la partie amont est élargie, formant une sorte de canal. La rive convexe n’a pas été attaquée par l’érosion, comme elle aurait dû l’être normalement}} De plus, le 4 juillet 1967, des missions de photographies réalisées par les Mirage III de la 33rd Escadre de Reconnaissance ont mis au jour des berges en friche et une ligne droite évoquant le mur d’un quai. Il semble que l'ensemble forme un \"véritable canal, tout à fait accessible à la navigation fluviale antique, certainement destiné à approvisionner la VIIIe légion en stationnement à Mirebeau.\"\nLa Bèze devait alors être utilisée pour \"la descente du blé réputé des Lingons expédié à Rome, Mirebeau étant, comme Lux, au centre de vallées et de plateaux fertiles. Par ailleurs, la Bèze est jalonnée de sites tels qu’un ensemble de petits bâtiments au lieu-dit « La Venelle », deux enceintes apparemment protohistoriques sur la rive gauche.}}\n\n===Middle Ages===\nThe tower of Oysel in Bèze, one of the vestiges of the old abbey, dominates the river.\n\nThe Benedictine Abbaye Saint-Pierre de Bèze was founded in 630. \nIt was visited by Pope Paschal II in February 1107. \nThe town of Bèze then belonged to the province of Champagne. \nIn the 8th century the place was called the \"Fountain of Bèze\" (). \nThe ''Chronique de Bèze'' from the first 3rd of the 12th century, describes foundation of the abbey on an unoccupied site.\nArnanger, Duke of Atuyer, gave his son Gandelin the order to found a monastery there. The Chronicle says:\n\n\nIn 883 the abbey welcomed relics of the martyred Saint Prudent de Narbonne, whose worship was important to Bèze in the 10th, 11th and 12th centuries. \nAccording to Solange de Montenay, in 888 the cave served as a refuge from the Normans for the inhabitants of Bèze and the monks of the abbey.\n\nIn 1680, the lawyer Bonyard described Beze:\n\n\n\nBèze also had a castle protected by walls and moats, and a bridge that joined the two sides of the river.\n\n=== Modern period ===\nFormer hydroelectric dam at the exit of Bèze (Belle-Isle farm in Bèze, towards Mirebeau-sur-Bèze)..\n\n==== The Bèze, central element of the Vonges national powder mill ====\n\nThe history of the national powder factory of Vonges is linked to that of the Bèze. \nOn 15 July 1753 Emmanuel Piche, the founder of the company, acquired a perpetual lease on the Foullot meadow with a surface area of and a stretch of the river to install powder mills. \nAs early as 1775, according to the Abbé Claude Courtépée, the village was an important powder production site: \"Two powder mills on the Bèze with 24 drums and 24 mortars each, which in 21 hours made 960 pounds of powder. A third mill between the two ... to refine the powder. These mills have grown by four times in 23 years.\"\nIn 1716 the site required a change in the water level of the Bèze to meet the industrial needs. \nA major fire in 1839 forced redevelopment, then works in 1840 and 1841 allowed creation of new circular canal pounds and the installation of hydraulic motors. \nA royal ordinance of 29 April 1841 regulated the use of water in the Vonges powder mill. \nIt regulated the level of the large weir of the old Vonges mill and that of the small spillway of the powder mill, and fixed the dimensions of the discharge valves.\n\nAs a result of the extensive development work, and due to numerous complaints from local residents regarding the frequent flooding that transformed grassland around the powder works into unhealthy swamps, on 23 January 1848 a new ordinance was issued concerning the Syndicat de la Bèze. \nIts purpose was \"to prevent the overflow of this watercourse\". \nThe first work involved the powder works' canal, dug to replace the old winding bed of the Bèze. \nDisputes then arose between the residents of the river's left bank and the powder works concerning clearing and maintenance of the old course of the Bèze. \nThe residents demanded compensation. \nOn 26 June 1928 a complaint concerning the Vonges powder works was filed by the riverine communes near the Lower Bèze concerning the floods. \nSince then a union, which meets once a year, is composed of 14 municipalities and has 28 members, two from each commune, chosen from municipal councils. \nThe contribution is paid by some 500 owners, including the national powder factory of Vonges.\n\n==== De-industrialization of Bézouotte ====\nCanal at Bézouotte, former site of the forge\n\nThe well-known forge and furnace of Bézouotte disappeared in 1860, ruined by the industrial concentration and free trade policy of Napoleon III. \nTwenty metallurgists left the village. \nAround 1870 mills were erected on the sites of the forge and the furnace, but they did not last more than ten years. \nHops were cultivated intensively at the end of the 19th century, but then dropped significantly. \nIn addition, several incidents, including a major fire, put an end to the activity. \nIn 1883 the Cuiserey bridge was built on the Bèze.\nThe same year saw the Bèze and its region affected by a terrible drought. \nAround 1900 M. Ratter equipped the forge's canal with a turbine that supplied three-phase electric power to Pontailler.\n\n==== Mills of Mirebeau-sur-Bèze ====\n\nA mill with ten pairs of cylinders and a pair of wheels is in action at Mirebeau-sur-Beze.\nIt is one of the most important in the region, and can grind a hundred sacks of wheat a day. \nTwo metallic walkways allow workers to carry cereals stored in warehouses across the river to the mill. \nSince 1900 a turbine installed next to the mill can produce power for the entire village. \nIn 1903 the covered washing boat on the rue des Moulins was sold by commune.\n\n=== Patrimoine bâti à l'eau ===\n==== Patrimoine culturel ====\nAncien moulin et haut-fourneau de Noiron-sur-Bèze, dont l'activité a cessé en 1858\n\nLe patrimoine bâti à l'eau est divers. Des lavoirs sont présents sur tous les villages traversés par les cours d’eau constituant le bassin Bèze-Albane. Certains sont encore utilisables avec de petites vannes. Les constructions demeurées intactes de l'ancienne abbaye Saint-Pierre de Bèze, y compris son lavoir, représentent un important patrimoine classé monument historique inscrit récemment (en 2010) À Mirebeau, un château, duquel subsistent deux tours et une partie des murailles, ainsi que des traces de remparts de la ville, se situent le long de la Bèze.\n\nDe nombreux ouvrages hydrauliques ponctuent le cours de la Bèze et de ses affluents, mais seuls deux ont encore une utilité économique : celui de l'usine de Drambon et celui de la Rente de l’Albane à Belleneuve.\n\n==== Anciens sites industriels ====\nPlan de la poudrerie nationale de Vonges en 1884 montrant le réseau de canaux constitué à partir de la Bèze et qui traverse le site industriel.\n\nLes activités de moulinage sont historiquement implantées sur les cours d’eau, mais \"la Poudrerie de Vonges, construite en 1691, reste un des sites historiquement emblématique du bassin Bèze-Albane}}. \n\"Les anciens sites industriels sont assez dispersés sur le bassin et concernent essentiellement des anciennes forges, ou encore des décharges communales d’ordures ménagères.}} Un recensement des sites a été effectué à l’échelle de la région Bourgogne dans le cadre d’un programme national mené par le BRGM. Cependant, deux études, du SRAE en 1981, lors de la mesure des débits de la Bèze, et à l’époque de la construction du « canal des marais » (une dérivation permettant d'irriguer des cultures à Drambon), dans les années 1830 ont permis d'enrichir ou de confirmer la carte des industries disparues. Les plus grandes concentrations sont observées à Pontailler-sur-Saône et à Mirebeau-sur-Bèze (présence d'une ancienne distillerie). Des décharges ont également été recensées à Bèze, Viévigne, Noiron-sur-Bèze, et Cirey-les-Pontailler. D'anciennes forges sont présentes dans la quasi-totalité des communes traversées par la Bèze et surtout à Drambon, Marandeuil, Bézouotte et Noiron-sur-Bèze. Ces sites représentent \"un risque potentiel de pollution des eaux, étant donné les écrits affirmant que les maîtres des forges de Bézouotte versaient les boues de leurs patouillets directement dans la rivière. Ces pratiques auraient été assez répandues à l’époque, sur les autres forges également. À Noiron-sur-Bèze, les terres de l’îlot ainsi que celles bordant le moulin en bordure de la Bèze seraient pleines de ces résidus selon le propriétaire, puisque ces derniers auraient en partie servi à constituer l’ilôt.}}\n\n==== Sites industriels actuels ====\nAujourd'hui, seize sites industriels sont en activités sur le parcours de la Bèze. Parmi eux, les deux poudreries de Pontailler-sur-Saône et de Vonges sont classées SEVESO. D'autres industries sont soumises à autosurveillance pour les rejets effectués dans le milieu : PBI à Bézouotte, Titanite SA à Pontailler-sur-Saône, STPI et Nobel Explosifs France à Vonges.\n\n=== Impact anthropique ===\nLa Bèze est fortement canalisée à Drambon. Un déversoir permet d'en réguler le débit.\n\n\"Durant le 20th century la révolution des pratiques agriculturales a induit des bouleversements intenses et à grande échelle de l’occupation des sols dans les vallées}}, note l'EPTB Saône et Doubs. La plupart des zones humides de fond de vallées ont ainsi été drainées et de nombreux fossés d’assainissement et de drainage agricoles ont considérablement redessiné le réseau hydrographique du bassin versant. Toutefois la Bèze est le cours d'eau le moins affecté par les travaux de redressement de son lit, au contraire de ses affluents, l’Albane, le Chiron et le Pannecul, qui ont été aménagés considérablement, à des fins agricoles. Certaines parties de ces cours d'eau présentent une \"véritable chenalisation\".\n", "=== Faune et flore ===\nPerche soleil.\nVairon.\n==== Espèces ====\nLa Truite et la « Satoille » (sans doute la Lamproie fluviatile) étaient pêchées dans la Bèze, mais aussi en Saône et dans la Vingeanne au Moyen Âge. La duchesse Marguerite de Flandre raconte en avoir dégusté en 1382-1383. \nEn 1900, les écrevisses, qui pullulent alors et que l'on pêche à la balance, ou mieux avec un fagot d'épines garni de tripes de poulet, disparaissent brutalement, à la suite d'une mystérieuse épidémie.\n\nLes pêches effectuées depuis 1995 montrent que les espèces les plus présentes sont : la Truite, L’Épinoche (en disparition), le Gardon (en réapparition), la Loche franche (en réapparition), la Perche soleil (en diminution), le Poisson chat (en diminution) et le vairon. À l’aval de Marandeuil, \"le contexte de la Bèze est un contexte cyprinicole conforme, avec comme espèce repère le Brochet. }}\n\nL'état des lieux du peuplement piscicole du bassin versant de la Bèze-Albane est fourni par le ''Plan Départemental pour la Protection du milieu aquatique et la Gestion des ressources piscicoles'' (PDPG) qui date de 1998, élaboré par la Fédération de Pêche de Côte-d’Or. Il note que le \"contexte piscicole de la résurgence de la Bèze jusqu’à Marandeuil est un contexte salmonicole perturbé, avec comme espèce repère la Truite. Seule la reproduction semble être perturbée (parmi les trois critères croissance, éclosion, reproduction).}}\n\nLes zones humides du bassin versant sont limitées aux fossés de drainage au sein desquels quelques espèces hélophytes, également installées dans les étangs fixés aux affluents de la Bèze et de l’Albane. Des roselières sont présentes en grand nombre.\n\n==== Impacts humains ====\nCertains ouvrages bâtis sur la Bèze impactent de manière importante les cycles de reproduction, d’éclosion et de croissance des espèces animales y vivant (ici une grille à l'entrée de la poudrerie de Vonges).\n\nPlusieurs facteurs perturbent la faune :\n* le barrage E.D.F de la Bèze perturbe la fonction de reproduction ;\n* la station d'épuration des eaux usées (STEU) de Mirebeau et les rejets sauvages qui s'ensuivent impactent les trois fonctions de reproduction, d’éclosion et de croissance ;\n* la présence de l’élevage perturbe la fonction de croissance sur les affluents;\n* les vannages sur la Bèze perturbent la reproduction et l’éclosion ;\n* la poudrerie nationale de Vonges, par ses rejets, perturbe la croissance.\n\nDes programmes de repeuplement ont été effectués par l'association la Gaule de Vonges en 1986, 1987 et 1988 concernant le Brochet et la Perche, puis par l’AAPPMA locale. Le PDPG recommande une meilleure gestion des vannages, de favoriser des zones d’expansion de crues et d’améliorer le traitement des effluents de la poudrerie.\n\nSix ouvrages hydrauliques sur les 17 identifiés du bassin versant Bèze-Albane sont \"strictement infranchissables par le poisson (...) Ce constat met en évidence l’ampleur du cloisonnement biologique du réseau hydrographique principal du bassin. C’est plus de 8,5 % du linéaire de cours d’eau (soit ) qui est physiquement influencé par la présence d’ouvrages hydrauliques.}} L’effet de retenue créé par ces ouvrages favorise le réchauffement des eaux, le développement des algues et limite le développement des espèces animales d’eau fraîche.\n\n=== Gestion de l'eau potable ===\nSur l'ensemble du bassin versant de la Bèze, \"11 communes, soit 27 % de la totalité des communes n’ont pas délégué leur compétence à un syndicat. 5 syndicats sont partiellement présents : le syndicat d’Arc-sur-Tille (3 communes sur les 4 du syndicat), celui de Clénay et Saint-Julien (1 commune sur les 10 du syndicat), le syndicat Saône Ognon Vingeanne (5 communes sur les 10 du syndicat), celui de Véronnes (2 communes sur les 3 du syndicat) et le syndicat de la Basse Vingeanne (3 communes sur les 5 du syndicat).}} \"Le gestionnaire principal du bassin est la SAUR avec 78 % des communes du bassin représentées. 5 %, soit 2 communes, sont gérées par le SDEI, désormais Lyonnaise, et 17 % des communes ont opté pour la gestion en régie communale.}} Huit captages utilisent la ressource du bassin versant et six d'entre eux concernent des sources. Les volumes prélevés (estimés) sur le bassin s'élèvent à mètres cubes par an. Le syndicat d’eau de Magny-Saint-Médard représente à lui seul 80 % des prélèvements du bassin.\n\n=== Pollution ===\nLes activités agricoles et d'élevage le long de la Bèze ont d'importantes conséquences sur la qualité de ses eaux (ici des vaches en pâture à Saint-Léger-Triey).\n\nNeuf stations de mesure de la qualité des eaux superficielles sont localisées le long du cours de la Bèze.\nL'Établissement Public Territorial du Bassin de la Saône et du Doubs a relevé dans deux des masses d'eau du bassin versant de la Bèze une concentration en nitrates. La qualité nitrate est médiocre sur l’ensemble des stations du bassin avec un maximum en sortie de bassin. La qualité concernant les métaux (micropolluants minéraux chrome et nickel essentiellement) est moyenne, mais semble localisée aux secteurs d’anciennes forges, à Drambon et Marandeuil. \nLa station de Saint-Léger présente une contamination en arsenic et nickel. \nLes activités agricoles constituent la source la plus importante en termes de pollution diffuse par les nitrates. Cette pollution \"a des sérieuses répercussions au niveau des captages d’eau potable, puisque la potabilité de l’eau distribuée (...) est remise en cause. La totalité du bassin de la Bèze-Albane est comprise en zone vulnérable pour les nitrates. Ce classement vise à protéger les milieux, en l’occurrence la nappe d’accompagnement de la Saône contre la contamination par les nitrates.}} Pour pallier cela, un programme de mise en place de bandes enherbées a été décidé en 2009. Depuis, une nette amélioration \"quant à la qualité de l’eau et quant à la colonisation des berges par de jeunes pousses, qui tendent à faire réapparaître une ripisylve sur les berges des cours d’eau}}, est à noter.\n\nLe Conseil départemental de la Côte-d'Or réalise le suivi de la qualité des eaux superficielles du bassin versant de la Bèze depuis 1994 au moyen de stations de mesures contrôlées tous les deux ans.\n\nDes dépôts d’ordures sauvages ont été observés et font l'objet d'une campagne de sensibilisation.\n\n=== Agriculture et irrigation ===\nL’agriculture représente l’activité économique principale du bassin versant de la Bèze, \"les grandes cultures intensives ayant globalement remplacé les prairies de bord de cours d’eau qui étaient pâturées ou fauchées}} auparavant. Les cultures sont désormais drainées et seuls quelques agriculteurs irriguent encore leurs cultures (principalement de maïs et de pomme de terre) en s'approvisionnant dans la Bèze. Un plan d’eau à la source de l’Albane a été conçu à cette fin.\n\"Selon les chiffres de la MISE, la consommation moyenne annuelle à usage d’irrigation sur le bassin versant est de 98,500 mètres cubes en moyenne annuelle. La quasi-totalité de ce débit est utilisé de mai à septembre, soit sur cinq mois, avec des maximums souvent observés en juin et juillet. Ces prélèvements représenteraient environ 17 % des prélèvements totaux du bassin. L’impact de ces prélèvements est jugé négligeable au vu de l’absence de modification d’écoulement de cours d’eau.}}\n\n=== Assainissement ===\nL’assainissement du bassin versant de la Bèze est géré par 23 communes, par l’intermédiaire d’une intercommunalité, représentant ainsi 56 % de l’ensemble des communes hydrographiquement concernées. Selon l'EPTB Saône et Doubs : \"Lamarche-sur-Saône, Pontailler-sur-Saône et Vonges se tournent sur la Saône, qui constitue alors le milieu récepteur aux rejets, Vonges étant raccordée à une des stations de traitement de Pontailler-sur-Saône. 16 communes ne possèdent pas d’installations de traitement collectif à l’heure actuelle, soit 43 % des communes.}} La moitié des installations sont très récentes, et deux sont habilitées à traiter l’azote et le phosphore, conformément à la Directive eaux résiduaires urbaines (ERU).\n\nLes stations d’épuration rejetant dans le bassin versant de la Bèze sont de trois types : par boues activées, par filtre planté ou par lagunage naturel.\n\n=== Risques naturels ===\nCrue de la rivière à Bèze, le 20 décembre 1913, ayant entraîné un jaillissement important à la résurgence.\n\nLa Bèze, ainsi que son bassin versant, ne présentent pas de risques naturels majeurs. Les secteurs à risque impactés par les crues sont les espaces agricoles. Les communes vulnérables à ce risque selon la DIREN sont Mirebeau et Bourberain. Les zones de confluences (Saint-Léger-Triey, Vonges et Trochères) sont particulièrement concernées par les inondations. \"Les durées de débordement sont relativement courtes, la rivière regagnant son lit pour les crues les plus fréquentes après un à cinq jours.}} Toutefois les risques d'inondations sont pour la majorité dus à une mauvaise gestion des ouvrages hydrauliques, insuffisamment manœuvrés, en particulier ceux des communes de Bèze, Drambon, Bézouotte ou Vonges.\n\nLes bois des environs de Mirebeau abritent des peupliers situés sur les berges de la Bèze qui peuvent constituer de \"|réels risques pour les berges, étant donné le très faible enracinement de cet arbre\".\n", "\n", "\n\n", "\n*\n*\n* \n*\n* \n* \n* \n* \n*\n*\n* \n* \n* \n*\n*\n* \n*\n* \n*\n* \n*\n*\n*\n*\n*\n*\n*\n* \n*\n*\n* \n*\n*\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" ]

Volz' designed both the fountain and the interiors of the opera house.\nSculpture by Volz on a house in Tallinn designed by Jacques Rosenbaum.\n'''August Volz''' (; 27 February 1851 – 20 June 1926) was a German-born sculptor working, Born in Magdeburg, Volz worked mainly in Riga, the present-day capital of Latvia. The workshop of Volz received prestigious commissions in Riga from its opening in 1876 and created several of the most well-known sculptures of the city, e.g. the Roland statue and sculptures decorating the House of the Blackheads. The firm of Volz was also responsible for the complete or partial decoration of a number of important public buildings in the city.\n", "August Franz Leberecht Volz was born as the eleventh child of shoemaker Johann Volz and his wife Johanne, née Morin, in Magdeburg. He received his basic education in the city and began an apprenticeship at a sculptor's workshop in Magdeburg at the age of 1865. In the spring of 1869 he moved to Berlin, where he initially worked in a sculptor's workshop and from autumn studied sculpting at the Prussian Academy of Arts under the tutelage of , Carl Domschke, and Karl Geppert. In 1870, at the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War, Volz tried to join the military but was refused, the first time because he was underage and the second time because there were already too many volunteers.\n\nThroughout his studies, Volz had been working at different workshops. In October 1871, Volz ceased his studies at the academy and began to work full-time for the firm Ende & Böckmann. The firm also took on commissions abroad, and it was through Ende & Böckmann that Volz came to Riga in the autumn of 1875 to work on the sculptural decoration of a large tenement house (on the present-day address Krišjāņa Barona iela 12). Already on 2 January 1876 he established his own firm in Riga. Riga had at that time a large Baltic German population. In addition to his own work as a sculptor, Volz taught at the Art Academy of Riga after its establishment in 1906.\n\nVolz married his first wife Maria, née Thurm, in 1876. The couple had seven children, of which two died before World War I. Maria died in 1909 and in 1911 Volz married his second wife, Olga, née Kalning. The couple had one son.\n\nVolz spent the rest of his life in Riga apart from the years of World War I, when he and his family were obliged to go into exile in the small town of Tsivilsk. This was because Volz had retained his German citizenship and the Russian Empire and Germany was at war. In Tsivilsk the family rented a room from the town's notary and were treated civilly by the authorities. His home in Riga, meanwhile, was used by both Russian officers and later Germans but kept intact and after his return in 1917 only his collection of hunting rifles were missing.\n\nVolz died in Riga in 1926. His descendants live in Germany. A memorial plaque was put up in 1996 at the site where Volz' workshop was located for many years on the present-day address Krišjāņa Valdemāra iela 31.\n", "Volz established himself in Riga at a time of great economic expansion of the old Hanseatic town, which was a major port of the Russian Empire. During the years around the turn of the 19th-20th centuries Riga experienced an unprecedented building activity. At the same time, a professional cadre of local sculptors had not yet formed. Volz' workshop could therefore operate without serious competition, and developed into a large and profitable enterprise. The firm eventually grew to employ about 130 people in the time around 1910, and had already in 1890 employed 40 people. Following the death of August Volz in 1926, his widow Olga continued operating the firm with great skill and energy. On the eve of World War II, because the Volz family was to be forcibly \"repatriated\" to Germany following the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, the firm was sold to the stone-carving firm of Oto Dambekalns. \n\n===Style and scope===\nStylistically, August Volz had been trained in the classical tradition of the Academic art. Although his firm took on commissions ranging from simple structural elements such as stairs and columns to facades and interiors, portraits, memorial plaques and reliefs, Volz' arguably finest works were freestanding sculpture in the round in the form of free-standing monuments or architectural decoration. A question of dispute is how much the workshop of Volz contributed to providing sculptural elements for the extraordinary flowering of Art Nouveau architecture in Riga. Archival documentation is lacking, and while several sculptures e.g. on the expressive buildings on Alberta iela display characteristics which could certainly link them to the workshop of Volz, it is also known that August Volz himself was dismissive of Art Nouveau as a style. It is however known that Volz supplied the sculptural elements of the highly Art Nouveau buildings by Jacques Rosenbaum in neighbouring Tallinn, and for at least some Art Nouveau buildings in Riga.\n", "===Public buildings===\nOne of the first prestigious commissions given to Volz was the decoration of the Nativity Cathedral, designed by architect in a Byzantine Revival style and built 18876–1884; it is the largest Russian Orthodox Church in the Baltic states. Volz' company subsequently participated in the decoration of an additional two churches in Riga.\n\nOne of Riga's most iconic buildings, the House of the Blackheads, underwent a significant alteration to designs by architect Heinrich Scheel in 1886 and Volz was responsible for the extensive sculptural decoration. The facade had already in the 17th century been decorated with four ''trompe-l'œil'' paintings depicting four allegorical figures, and Volz thus created four sculptures representing the same deities: Hermes, Poseidon, Peace and Harmony, which each stand in a niche prominently displayed at the centre of the facade. Volz would continue to create sculptures for the House of the Blackheads but it remains unclear exactly which sculptures were made in his workshop; it has been assumed that the ''Saint George and the Dragon'' on the corner of the building as well as the two lions at the entrance are from the workshop of Volz.\n\nVolz' firm was also took active part in supplying decorations for both the present-day Latvian National Opera and the Latvian National Theatre. The entirety of the interior decoration for the opera was entrusted to Volz, while for the theatre the firm of Volz supplied the Atlas figures flanking the entrance while the interior decoration was entrusted to the firm Otto & Wassil.\n\nVolz workshop also supplied the sculpture group adorning the pediment of the present-day Latvian National Museum of Art in 1903. It depicts the Greek goddess Athena surrounded by allegorical figures representing civic and artistic traits. The present-day Art Academy of Latvia (built as a commercial school) also has capitals designed by Volz in a Neo-Gothic style, as well as reliefs and other forms of sculptural decoration.\n\nVolz' workshop also provided sculptures for the building of the present-day Ministry of Foreign Affairs, originally built as a bank.\n\nIn addition, Volz provided sculptures and decorations for schools, factories, banks and monumental tenement houses in Riga.\n\n===Monuments===\nVolz made the Roland statue on the square in front of the House of the Blackheads in 1894. The presently visible statue is a copy (as are the statues on the House of the Blackheads, which was severely damaged during World War II and later destroyed during the Soviet occupation of Latvia) but the original, damaged statue remains preserved in St. Peter's Church.\n\nIn 1888 a fountain designed and executed by Volz' company was placed in front of the Latvian National Opera. It draws on Baroque ideas and represents a nymph surrounded by young boys and dolphins. Like the Roland statue, the fountain was in connection to World War II and restored in 1987 by Mirdza Lukaža.\n\nThe workshop of Volz also designed a similar statue of a knight for the Bastejkalns park (destroyed) and sculptures of lions in the Vērmanes Garden.\n\n===Works outside Riga===\nWhile Volz' company was mostly active in Riga, the firm did take on some commissions outside the city limits. The company provided decorations and sculptures for no less than nine manor houses on the Latvian countryside; most of these have however been destroyed or damaged during the violent 20th century.\n\nThe company also supplied sculptures for some buildings in Tallinn (present-day capital of Estonia), notably buildings by architect Jacques Rosenbaum and reliefs for the Estonian Drama Theatre. The company also provided sculptures for the Hludov baths in Moscow.\n", "\n", "*\n*\n*\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" ]
