From the Frozen Zone.

The arrival of over two hundred Ice
landers on Wednesday evening was 8
most welcome visitation at this season o1
the year. The temperature has been en-.
tlrely comfortable since they struck the
town. In counteraction of the summer
solstice they beat the Manitoba wave out
OF sight: They were cool-looking
crowd. This party went by sailing yes
sells from Iceland to Glasgow, where
they took the NoldeasS0 for Quebec.
where they arrived on July 18th.
Their destination was originally Mani
toba, but, being captivated by the oily
speech of an emissary of the Chicago
and Northwestern Railway, the party
were induced to change their pro-
gramme, and, instead of going to the
Canadian province, they proposed
locating at Minnesota, border settle
ment on the Winona and st. Peter Rail
way. Not soul among the the 200 en-
igrants from the frozen zone understood
word of English. Of course an inter
prefer accompanied the party. But for
him they would have been obliged to lay
over at some station until they could
pick up little English education.
The children, of whom there was
good-sized grist, were sleek-looking kids,
with blue eyes and ''tow" heads. The
men and women all had white hair.
There wasn't black eye among the
whole 200. A few of the women were
quite handsome, and all were passably
good-looking-in appearance away ahead
OF most foreign immigrants. They ap
pear to have succeeded in raising chill
dren in Iceland if nothing else, for one
middle aged woman was trying to take
care OF 13 youngsters, the oldest being
only Is years Of age. The men wore
sheepskin overcoats, or cloaks, with a
headgear, or hood, attached, the gar
ments being sewn together by the sinews
of the reindeer. The lower extremities
were encased in sheepskin leggings.
Their feet were dressed in wooden clogs.
Some of the overcoats had sleeves, and
some had not. These people carry an
enormous bulk of baggage. One old
fellow, who hobbled around on two
canes, was growing because he couldnt
ind his seven trunks. In one respect
they resembled tourists more that immi-
grants. Chicago Times.

L
We have as yet no knowledge where
will be deposited the remains of the late
Prince, but 1t is probable that they vii
be transferred to Corsica. As ia wei
known, the body of Napoleon I. was in.
TERED in Hotel des Invalides during the
reign of Louis Philippe. This great sol.
dier,s home was to become for the Bona.
parties what st. Dennis had been for the
Bourbons, whence it was to be deemed
not family burial place, but the mauso-
leum only of those members who had
worn crowns. In accordance with this
principle of selection, Napoleon III.
caused the body of King Joseph to be
brought from Florence. where he died in
1874. This was in 1862, and the following
year the other crowned Bonapartes (Louis
of Holland and Jerome of Westfalen) fol-
lowed him. For the others the late EN-
peror had a fine motuary chapel built at
Ajaccio. The crypt, underneath the chapel
flour. is octagon in shape, three of the
eight tombs being already occupied. The
center of the chapel itself has but four
walls, the spaces corresponding to the
other sides of the octagon beneath, being
open halls, forming together Latin
cross: Of the four walls, three are occu-
pied by inscriptions in honor of the per-
sons buried beneath; for the fourth and
last place no candidate has till now pre-
sented itself. One of the inscriptions
runs:
Marie Laetitia Romolia Carolo Bona
parte nupta,
A. B. MDCCLxvII.
cui inclyta probes
Joseph Hispaniae Rex.
Napoleo Gallaie Imperator.
Lucianus Caninae Princeps.
Elisa SUNNI Thuseiae Dux.

Paulina Guastaldise Dux.
Carolina Neapolis Rex.
Hieronymus Guestphaliae Rex.
Bomae Obiit IL. Februarii, A. D.,

MDCCCLIX.
The other persons honored by inscrip.
tons are Cardinal Fesch and Charles
Bonaparts, second Prince of Canine, and
famous for his knowledge of natural his
tory, who died as Director of the Paris
Botanical Garden in 1856. When in
power, the Bonapartists have always had
great means of getting rich, but most of
them have lived SO extravagantly as to |
have nothing left when once more out of |
office. Laetitia and Fesch, however, were
exceptions to the rule, both having left |
large properties. That of the first even
.ually came to Napoleon Ill, and was of |
great use to him in carrying ont the coup
fetat. Fesch left most of his wealth to /
Joseph Bonaparte. The property of the /
ate Prince, Louis Napoleon, came from |
he Princess Bacciocchi.

A Feat In RaiIrOading.

One of the most remarkable feats ever
accomplished in railroading was perform
ed recently by the st. Louis, Iron Noun
tain and Southern i'll change of gauge of
seven hundred miles of road. Hereto
fore the gauge had been five feet. 1t has
been reduced to the standard width of
four feet eight and half inches. About
six weeks ago the Board of Directors of
the Iron Mountain adopted resolution
providing for the change of gauge, and
Immediately thereafter Mr. Thomas
Allen, the President of the company gave
the order for the work to be done. Active
preparations were begun at once.
Extra men were employed, and all the
shops began to run on extra time. Every
locomotive and every car had to be cut
down for the new gauge, and much of
this had to be done beforehand, SO there
would be no interruption of business.
began at some points as soon as the mid
night trains had passed. Over three
thousand men were employed for the oc-
casion. The men divided into squads,
and each squad was put under the charge
of "boss." The "bosses" were under
the direction of the roadmasters, and the
roadmasters under the direction of the
division superintendent, and the whole
gang under the supervision of the general
superintendent.
There are four divisions of the Iron
Mountain Railroad. The Texas division
is 145 miles in length the Arkansas
division is 1SO miles in length; the
Missouri division is 1876 miles in length,
and the st. Louis division is 172 miles in
length.
Over six hundred freight cars, sixty
engines, and all the passenger coaches
have been cut down and are ready for
the new gauge, and the regular business
of the road was interfered with only |
about six or seven hours. Regular trains |
will start hereafter and will arrive and |
depart as usual. The cost of the change |
will not fall short of $2OO,OOO.-.S Louis

To LIVE IN WAsHINGToN.-Iti is rumored
there that the wife and daughter of ex-
Senator Stewart are to return to Wash
ington and re-inhabit the great pile of
sandstone that is known as Stewards
castle. It is the largest and most expen-
sive house in Washington and cost $780,
600. It has been closed since the expira-
ton of the Senator's term of Office in
1876, and has been advertised for rent
for the modest sum of at first $20,0 600 per
annum, and later $4,000 and $10,O 600.
But no one has had the money to pay
such rental and keep up the house
sides, for it will require several thousall
a year to heat it alone. Washington Record

BANK OF ENGLAND NoTEs.-Few of
the persons who handle Bank of England
notes ever think of the amount of labor
and ingenuity that is expended in their
production. According to an official re-
port these notes are made from pure
white linen cuttings, never from rags
that have been worn. They have been
manufactured for nearly 200 years by the
same family, the Portals, Protestant
So carefully is the paper prepared that
even the number of dips into the pulp
made by each workman is registered
on dial by machinery, and the
sheets are carefully counted and
booked to each person through whose
hands they pass. The printing is done
by d curious process in Mr.. Goes de-
partment within the bank building.
There is an elaborate arrangement for
securing that no note shall be exactly
like any other in existence Conse-
quently there never was duplicate of
Bank of England except by forgery. Ac-
cording to the city Press the stock of
paid notes of seven years is about o.
OOO, 900 in number, and they fill IS, 900
boxes, which, if placed side by side,
would reach three miles, The notes
placed in pile would be eight miles, or
if joined end to end would form ribbon
15 900 miles long; their superficial ex-
tent is more than that of Hyde Park;
their original value was over $15, 900,

FEED YOUNG ANIMALS WELL.-%TLe
man who wears out calfs teeth in B, be
effort to make it shirk for itself never
raised q primesteer nor good COW. Eyeiy
dollar supposed to be thus saved in the
young animal must be replaced by the
expenditure of two. The man who feeds
best wiiiie the animal is young makes the
most money. This is generally recog-
nized as true by our best farmers, and
hence the improvement in stock, and
consequent cheapening in the raising OF
animals within the past ten years. The
same rule will apply to all farm stock.
Ifstinted while young they never pay the
breeder and feeder q living profit
Hence, the reason why those who do not
keep pace with the times are always
complaining that there is no money In
stock. The big prices paid by the best
stock feeders are for animals that have
had their digestive organs kept intact by
early and properly prepared nutritious
food. The value of good animal lies in
its aptitude TO lay on flesh, and those
who keep steadily growing from birth
will continue this growth and increase in
profitable weight. To do this in the most
economical manner the digestive organs
must be originally strong and unimpaircd
by abuse.
