The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1872-01-18

A meeting of some Of our prominent
citizens was held at the Windiate House
on Tuesday evening last, for the purpose of
taking INTO consideration the feasibility of
establishing blast furnace in this city.
Among the gentlemen present were Thos.
Windiate, 5. 4. Wood, A. D. Jones, p.
Johnston, r. klingholz, Jonah Richards,
j. W. Barnes, J. Z. Plat, Geo. Cooper,
Rev. C. B. Stevens and others.
The meeting was organized by calling
J. W. Barnes 10 the chair Peter Johnston,
Esq, acting as Secretary.
The matter was discussed in all its bear
ings upon the success of such an institu-
ton, and as the result of the deliberations
a committee, composed of Jonah Richards,
r. klingholz and Peter Johnston, was APP
pointed to solicit subscriptions in behalf Of
the object.
S. \. Wood, T. Windiate and A. D.
Jones were appointed committee 10 as
certain what grounds could be obtained for
the location of a blast furnace, and the
price that the same could be purchased for.
j. Richards, c. Luling and J. D. Mark
ham, were appointed to act as a committee
on correspondence with such parties who
may desire to become connected with an
association Of the above nature.
The meeting then adjourned to meet on
the 9Th Of next month.
The establishment of blast furnace in
this city cannot bat be a success. There
are blast furnaces in Appleton and De-
pere which are paving institutions. The
location Of blast furnace IN this city Will
pay even better than at the points named
above. The mines Of Lake Superior fur
nish the ore for both Appleton and De
pere. Manitowoc is nearer the mines than
either place. Oar harbor is the safest if
not the best on the lake, and there will be
no transhipment of the ore, and the fur
mace can always be supplied with the raw
material, as our harbor is not closed over
twentv-four hours in the severest weather
Of the winter, and the facilities for pro-
curing fuel are better than either.
With these facts in view, we trust that the
gentlemen who have entered into the above
enterprise will not yield their efforts to
form company and establish a furnace.
The building of the Milwaukee, Manito-
voc & Green Bay Railroad will afford
ready market for all the iron that can be
produced for some time to come, for it will
be to the interest of the railroad company
to procure their iron as near home as pos
sible.
The capital necessary for the formation
of a company is 100000, and we trust
that the committee will meet with such en-
cOuragcment that, ere summer arrives,
ground will be broken and the blast fur
mace in full tide Of successful operation.

CITY AND coukTY MATTERS.
Relief Committee Hard to beat.

We have few energetic women in our
Relief Society that are not easily put
aside When the members don't attend
promptly they take the work around in
bundles to their houses, with the pleasant
information that when done they would
confer favor by bringing it over to the
Relief Rooms. 1t is evident that the affair
Is taking business turn. We know of ore
woman whose sewing machine is in full
blast, aud we hope to be detailed to take
the work over.

The Real "ManSard.v
From the Springfield mass. J Renublic

From the Springfield (Mass.) Republican.
We beg leave to speak a word for
Monsieur Francois Mansard, who has
been IN his grave more than these 200
years, and whose roofs cover large por-
lions OF the great cities of Europe. Is
1t possible that it is reserved for America
and this generation to call down curses
on the head of the old French archi-
tect? Not bit of it. The trouble is
not with the shape of the roof, but with
its material and interior construction.
That vast quadrangle of palaces called
on one end the Tuileries, and on the
other the Louvre, was nearly all covered
with Mansard roofs, and yet when the
Tullerles burned, the rest of the build
ing was saved. Why is plain enough to
any one who looks at the still-standing
thick brick partitions, running trans
verse the building and extending clear
up and above the roof. The ancient
and enduring blocks that inclose the
Palace Vendome are another testimony
to the safety and durability of this class
OF roofs. 1t is preposterous to suppose
that only iron was used in their con-
struction. We suspect that stout oak
constitutes their internal skeleton, i'm
bedded and cased so far as possible in
mortar and masonry. Herein, we be-
lieve, lies the safety of the continental
cities,-in thick walls and mortar-laid
woodwork, thick chimneys, and thick
thing on the roofs; finally, in the
celebrity and Vigor with which the ordi-
nary appliance of axes, ladders, and
pals of water are applied to the incip-
lent conhagration, while the fire.
engines are making ready. AS for the
Mansard roof, it is the only topping-off
for business blocks that is architecturally
decent. With a street of fatroofed
blocks, the horizon becomes one straight,
dull line, but the Mansard roof gives a
touch of Gothic picturesqueness as well
IS useful attics. But they must be rest
co on frequent partitions of masonry,
framed with iron, casemated with some
thing thicker than states, and not
hoisted too near the stars.

Inundated Italy.

The London Times Of the 5th, in an
editorial on the floods in Italy, says :
TWo-thirds of the Province of Mantua
and 'one-third of Ferrara have been
flooded. More than 10000 families are
houseless. Vast tracts in the Terrific
ries of Parma, Reggie and Modena are
turned into lakes, on the surface of
which may be seen the tops of trees,
roofs OF houses and floating carcasses of
drowned cattle. Not only solid barns
and substantial farmhouses peculiar to
those districts, but even churches have
In many cases been unable to withstand
the violence of the floods. Many hui
man beings have persisted, both of those
who allowed themselves to be caught
within the lower buildings and of those
who fed for safety to the loftier edifces.
But hardly less wretched is the condi.
ton OF the survivors. The cattle they
have saved from the food are perishin 2
from want of fodder. They themselves
are thrown for sustenance on the neigh.
bors' charity. The harvest they have
lately garnered and the fields they have
just sown are laid waste. What was a
month ago the richest of plains is now
a. chaotic marsh, not unlikely to bear
tor many years the marks of few hours
havoc. Nor are the ravages limited to
the lower lands of the Pc, but all
around one vast level and up to the
mountain side devastation extends. The
rivers are everywhere breaking bounds,
and waters are out throughout the
peninsula. The distress is immense,
ana threatens to exhaust the ordinary
resources Of public and private charity
TO repair the damages done to the bikes
IN the Province of Monterey alone dur
ing the present inundation. 1t is reck.
oned that 9l20,000 will be required.
