Minnesota Iron.

Duluth Tribune, Goth.
At the ST. Louis hotel last evening, George
c. Stone, manager of the Minnesota Iron
company, exhibited beautiful specimen OF
bar iron that found many admirers. 1t was
a sample of iron made by Pittsburg
furnace, almost entirely free from ore, from
the company's mines at Tower, bent cold,
Is5 degrees. 1t shows remarkable strength
and tenaeity, and fully proves the quality
of the Vermillion ore. short talk with
Mr.. Stone yielded some interesting
facts regarding the Minnesota Iron
company's ore and the coming season IS
work. Three or four furnaces are now run
ming wholly or in part on this company's ore,
and the working of it in these furnaces and
in manufactures into bar and plate iron has
shown beyond question its high character
and superiority over most other ores. Nearly
all OF the 81, 900 tons shipped to Cleveland
last fall have been sold this winter. The
amount Of ore now at the mines ready for
shipment is about 90, 900 tons and it will be
increased to 90, 900 By the opening of navi-
CATION. 1t is the intention of the company
to ship over the Duluth & Iron Range to
Agate bay 1000 tons of ore day, or about
So 600 a month, and the road is pre-
pairing 10 do that amount of business. The
company will mine and ship to Cleveland
this season, If the market will justify it,
about 100000 tons. The number Of
miners now employed, 400 will be increased
St once by fifty or sixty, and if there is any
thing in the market to warrant it a still fur
Their increase will be made very soon. The
iron company is ordering some new machin-
cry from the Iron Bay Manufacturing COM
pany of Marquette, which will come up on
The first boat, and preparations are being
made to push the work in all the depart
ments.
Freight contracts for the season's trans
portation to the lower lakes have been made
with the Wilson line Of vessels, on private
terms. Altogether the outlook for the com
pany's business and work is first-rate.
As to the completion of the Iron Range to
this city this year, there is nothing new.
The com pany wants to build it here at once
and will do so If il possibly can.

Osman and Arab distinguished themselves
as leaders in the mimic battles fought in the
grounds of Capt. Meraie, the former in a
dashing, swooping kind of way, carrying
everything before him, and the latter as
tactician. The consequence was that rival
ry existed between the two, both having
about an equal number of their schoolfel-
lows siding with them. Osman remained
here until his nineteenth year, when he was
sent by his guardian to France on matters
relating to ALPS business.
In 1866 he obtained the compound of his
regiment, but shortly afterward, offending
the Khedive, he had to leave Egypt, and had
his property confscated. He then went to Sua-
kim and entered business as ship chandler
and coal agent under an assumed name;
but, while on hunting expedition, he was
captured by rowing band of Arabs, and was

Politics at Earno.

The city ticket put up by the Democratic
club at Fargo Saturday night, with some
severe throes, is personally excellent and in
the main strong. Charles R. Reddich for
mayor is young lawyer who has.been spoken
of for judge and is capable for almost any
position, and has never been identified with
local factions. He, however, labors under
the disadvantage of being somewhat OF a
tenderfoot and not largely identified with the
interests of taxpayers. The race will give
him useful advertising, but it will not be
possible to draw party lines for mayor. h.
b. Parson for treasurer is the active man OF
the G. A. R., clever man and will have a
fair show for election. Judge T. L. Connella
for police justice is a newspaper man noted
for conservative solidity and the breadth OF
his mental scope, as well as personal suavity
and geniality. He would reflect great credit
upon the position. The addition OF Attorney
Ryan for city attorney would give still more
strength to the ticket.

The Citizen.
It may not be generally known that Osman
Digua is a Frenchman by birth, and was
born in the year 1892 in a small hotel in
Rouen His father dying year or two
after his mother married an Alexandrian
merchant in 1897, half French and half
Egyptian, Of the name OF Osman Dgna,
who, taking great fancy to young Osman
(at that time named Alphonse Vinet), IN
sisted On having his name changed TO his
own, and, dying in 1912, left him about
500, 600 francs. Alter the death Of his step
father he was left 70 the guardian ship OF Ali
KbanA, kind OF half partner Of the elder
OsmaD, q Mussulnan, who, at the death Of
Nine. DigDa, in 1874, took young Osman
into his house. His religion at that time,
being very much Of the Christian unattached
type, was soon converted into Mohamme-
dznisn. Ali K1ana was a very wealthy
mar, and lived il great Oriental pomp and
splendor. Though intending TO be very kind
TO Young Osmzu, bis kindness was OF very
Spartan order, indeed. He had numerous
professors for various branches 81 learning.
and would often be examined By Ali him
self, who. If he did not consider that he had
made progress, would have bin severely bas-
tinadoed.
At the age Of Is be was sent to Cairo to an
ex-Freneh officer to be taught the various
methods 81 European warfare. Captain Me-
raie had some flfy boys residing in his house
studying war in all its branches, two or three
OF whom have since become famous, not
least among them being Arab Pssha. II
