SIXTY FOOT STEEL RAILS.
An Unusual Order Given to Carnegie's by
the Pennsy Road.

Captain W. r. Jones, General Manager
of the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, was
in the city yesterday, and said the firm was
shipping the last of an unusual order for
steel rails. The rails are the largest ever
rolled in the mills. They are 80 feet long
and each weigh 1,700 pounds. The rails
were ordered by the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and are intended for special
bridge work. The plant has previously
rolled 60 foot rails and then cut them to 30
foot lengths, but this is the first lot they
have finished at 60 feet

ST. LOUIS is HUSTLING,
Ex-Congressman O'Neill is Booming the
Worlds Fair.

Ex-Congressmar O'Neill, of st. Louis,
passed through the city last night on his
way East. Mr.. O'Neill is now engaged as
professional boomer for the Worlds Fair
which the St. Louis people want. As the
well-known e1-representative stated last
night, that when the st. Louis people want
a thing of this kind they generally get it.
Governor Francis is working hard to have
the show held in that city, and rather than
let Chicago get it, he is willing to spend
quite sum of money, The machinery for
capturing the fair has been set in motion.
and if it gets away from st. Louis it will be
an extraordinary proceeding.
Mr.. O'Neill is paying but little attention
to politics since the political cyclone struck
him about a wear ago. He saws that the
faults OF Corporal Tanner are those of his
deputies who are not in sympathy with him.

ton at $50 yesterday morning and syore
into service as special officers 30 of the DO
lice employed by the Exposition Society.
During the last week these men acted with
out any authorization from the Department
OF Public Safety.
There has been some complaint about the
slowness of egress from the Exposition.
Many ladies have complained about the
turnstiles at the exits, which allow only one
person to leave the place at once. 1t has
been discovered that law of March IA,
1867, as amended March 28. 1870, subjects
the Exposition Society to fine of $500 per
day for keeping any impediment: in the
exits. Inspector Brown, of the Building
Department, said yesterday that he consid-
cred the exit turnstiles a perfect nuisance.
He appreciated the utility of the entrance
turnstiles, but could see no use whatever for
the turnstiles in the exits. It is possible
that the Building Department will in day
or two take some action in regard to the
turnstiles.
1t is estimated that the attendance yester-
day afternoon and evening aggregated 8, 200.

At recent meeting of the city school board of Richmond. a resolu- tion was introduced locking to tearing down the old Jeff. Davis mansion and erecting on its site . new and more commodious public school building. For the last twenty years it has been used as graded school. Soon after the capital of the Confederate Gov ernment was established, this prop erty was purchased by the city of Richmond and offered as present to MT. Davis, but he declined it. The government then rented the building as the "White House of the Confed- eracy," and MT. Davis occupied it until the city was evacuated. With the de- molition of the Jeff Davis House and the removal of Libby Prison to Chi cago, two of tho most conspicuous landmarks of the Southern Confeder- acy will have disappeared.

The Georgia Minstrels dtewa crowd ed house last night, and the unanim- ous verdict of all those present was that it is the best minstrel show that has visited Chico in number of years. Billy Kersands and Billy Far rell, the two best colored comedians in the business, kept the audience in all uproar whenever they appeared. They are a whole entertainment in them selves. The singing of the Crescent City Quartette was one of the finest features of the programme. The "Drum Majors Dream" was excellent, and the "Majors" performed their parts like clock-work. w. G. Huf's exhibition on the harmonica was the best we have ever listened to.

The Famous Navajo Blankets

Have achieved s reputation for dur
 ability, second to none in the world
 A brief description of the process
 which produces these indestructible
 blankets may prove interesting.
 The Navajo tribe of Indians own immense focks of well-bred sheep
 and the wool clip averages 100000
 pounds annually. A part of this finds
 it's way into the regular market
 through the traders, but the greater portion is carefully selected for the manufacture of blankets. After be- ing cleaned, carded and dyed by a process known only to themselves, the wool is ready for the loom. The weavers are important personages and will only perform the labor of making the blanket, therefore the work of erecting the hogan which contains the loom devolves upon the squaws. The hogan is made by planting six rough hewn poles about eight feet high at regular intervals, forming small square On top of these boughs of trees are placed to form roof and shade from the burning rays of the sun. Thfcenter poles form-the sides of the loom and about a foot from the top and bottom cross poles, with holes bored through them for the warp, are securely fastened with rawhide thongs.
 The warp is made from the fibers of the yucca tree. It is treated in a l known only to those who pre- pare it and the secret will not be di- vulged to white man, therefore their can only be duplicated in quality and texture by themselves. 1 Formerly these blankets were made solely for their own use, but since hey were conquered by the govern nent and thrown almost entirely lpon their own resources for liveli- hood the value of their blankets was upon their minds by traders md has become the leading industry.

A skull and some few bones, were found near Clip last week. The skull was quite distance from the remains of the skeleton, and it is thought that coyotes carried it of. There are var ious theories concerning the discovery. The most generally accepted is that the remains are those of Cayetano Martinez, who disappeared from the Red Cloud mine very mysteriously about two years ago. His friends claim that he was murdered, as he was too familiar with the country to have lost his way.-Yuma Sentinel.

About % tons of tailings, remaining from lot of Fame ore worked last spring, were put through the Centen- nial mill recently, and realized $2,80O. Tailings worth SLIGO per ton are un. usual, but in this instance it is ex- plained by the fact that the ore was unusually rich, and the quantity of quicksilver used was not sufficient to do the work thoroughly. When the ore was worked the product in silver was $19,9OO from 39 tons, and together with the sum realized from the tail ings, the total is $22,7W,-Globe Sil- yer Belt.

Smekeless Powder.

The powders which Secretary Trac,
 has been instrumental in arranging tc
 have manufactured in this country fol
 use of the navy are the brown pris
 matic powder and g smskeless powder
 the patents and processes of which are controlled by the Rottwell Com. pany, of Germany. An arrangement has been made with the contractor now furnishing powder to the United States Navy to manufacture them in the United States, and as soon as cer- tain necessary changes in the plant shall have been effected the contractor will be enabled to furnish the powders named to this government.
 General g. V. Benet, Chief of Ord nance, says that within the past few weeks five or six varieties of smokeless powder have been brought to his off, cial notice by their respective inven- tors with request to try them. The General says the department is willing to do its part toward finding a suitable powder for use by the army-it will furnish the arms and cartridges, and provide suitable ranges and proving grounds whenever the powder makers show a willingness to provide the powder and go to the expense of pack ing the cartridges. So far none of them have done this, and therefore no tests have been made.-Engineering and Mining Journal.

The Tombstone EPITAPH is author ity for the report that the cordiality heretofore existing between the Daily Citizen of Tucson and Governor Wolf ley has waned, and that a still but dee~ hatred has taken its place. We cannot blame the Citizen for cutting loose from the rudderless craft that is drifting about the political sea without chart or compass, for it will eventually engulf all that cling to it when the final plunge is taken. 2, No self-respect. ing journal can afford to daily apolo- size for the blunders of this cratic in- dividual, and thereby invite the deri. sion of the people who think for themselves. He has detied the laws of the territory and spurned the coun- sells of his party leaders, and his revo- lutionary attempt to set up 8 personal government upon plan that threat ems every public interest has alienated the staunchest friends who stretched forth helping hand to save him. Flow any intelligent person can defend his course is past our comprehension and the sooner the president drops him back into obscurity the more all good citizens, and especially the Re. publican party. will applaud the act.
