BANKING AND FINANCIAL.

The calling in of 5-20s by tho Treasury naturallv
leads to an increased demand for other Investment
securities, prominent among which are the Nortbem
Pacific First Mortgage Bonds. To these we direct
the attention of investors being rstcc secn
riy both in the valne Of the property on which tbe
bonds are based, and the large return OF income
derived from the investment, which is over 30 nor
cent larger than can be earned on an equal aIoonnt
invested in 5-20s. The basis of land grant which
secures the Northern Pacific 7.30 Bonds is strong

valuable lands that worth double the amount Of
bonds issued and makes this loan one OF the safest
and most profitable of any now offered TO investors,

Life In a Rolling Mill.

A friend Of ours requests us 10 publish
the following, clipped from o newspaper
correspondence of recent date: 1.-THE
weather Is warm, and the subject is likely
to be warmer; but il IN illustration of
rolllDg.mill life may affect the value OF
the statement that 'one half of the world
does not know how the other half lives
or works, it may not be Improbable to
consider it. Away from home the wild
est questions are asked about rolling. mill
work and wages. Is the work all done
by machinery Can l get $40 o day in
the mill? is It very hot in the furnacesT
The work Is not oil done by machinery,
as many an aching frame Of bone and
muscles can testify; and the questioner
would probably not get ten dollars day,
II he got no more than he could earn. An
unequivocal Yes disposes Of the third
inquiry, which is construed into meaning
the neighborhood, as well as the inside OF
furnace. The labor OF most of the roll
ing.mill men, who work by the ton, be-
gins in the morning. Viewed in the
light of other peoples hours, however,
it begins in the night. At 4 o'clock
they must be up and doing, for at five,
one.halt OF the world being yet in bed
sharp whistles will be calling the rollers
to their tongs and hooks, and the iron
must be hot before that. During the
early part Of tho day the heat, though in.
tense, is patiently borne with tho body
clothed, but between twelve and three
o'clock, when rolls, furnaces and the iron
are all Kissing with heat, the endurance
OF the men Is taxed 10 the utmost By
the time the first named hour is struck
all metal substances have become too hot
for the unaccustomed 10 handle, and the
air about the furnaces and rolls Is sitting.
Ninety-fiVe degrees In o shady office is a
terrible inaicliOn to many, but here the
thermometer marks from 1875 TO 1876 de.
grees Of heat Shirts dripping with per-
Spiration are discarded, and muscular de.
velopment may be studied to good ad-
vantage. Pantaloons are wet and steam
ing holly, and even shoes must OCCASION
ally be emptied Of the sweat that runs
into them. Countenauces begun to wear
distressed appearances, as Il the physical
strain was telling severely upon even the
toughest. II Is human to be pushed on
a hot day. One look at the dozen stout
men that will be Frustrated In the last
round or two, will convince any man that
the largest wages they may receive are
well earned. ..-.
