An immense ledge of low grade ore was
struck this week in the Shamrock. Alta
depth of thirty five feet drift was run
and when forty feet from the shaft the ore
was encountered. Another drift will be
run from greater depth and when the
ledge is again tapped they expect to have
shipping ore. Such reports as these are
very encouraging to the north country
claim owners.--Chief.

The fame that American actors carry
with them does not seem to have greatly
impressed Paris during the last two or
three decades. In noticing the death of
Lawrence Barrett two leading Paris papers
treated the news in singularly novel man

is announced from New York, at the age of
"a. OF the well-known American actress
Lawrence Barrett" The second, having
more exclusive sources of information, and
evidently fuller knowledge of the late Mr.
Barrett and his lifework, speaks as fol-

Puget Sound Drydock.

The floating drydock at Port Had
lock is an immense structure, 32J feet
long and 100 feet wide, says the Port
Townsend Leader. The bottom is
composed of heavy timbers, the center
or keelson is built of timber eighteen
inches square and ten feet high from
the floor to the deck. On each side of
this keelson are ten similar structures
running the entire length of the dock,
but only the lower half of these sister
keels will be solid, the upper half to
the deck will be heavy truss work, and
this ten feet space the entire length of
the dock can be filled with water
when it is necessary to sink the
structure to take on a ship, then by
pumping out the water vacuum is
created of enormous lifting power to
raise vessel high and dry above water
so that she can be repaired.
On each side of the dock will be
tanks, engine houses and the great
pumps, which will be about thirty
feet high from the dock. The work
so far as it has progressed is of the
most substantial character and put
together in a workmanlike manner.
Four hundred and twenty-five kegs of
ship spikes were received yesterday
from the East and large amount of
material is now on the way here from
San Francisco. The dock is expected
to be completed by the last of Septem-
Der, and when launched and ready for
work, will have all the business it can
attend to. Port Hadlock is the best
place on Puget Sound for dock. Its
ease Of approach from the ocean will
make it the first place a disabled ves-
sci coming from sea will seek. The
harbor is landlocked and a perfect
shelter from southeast and southwest
winds, which are our prevailing stormy
winds of winter.

In Greenland, north Of IS degrees of
latitude, the entire land is covered
with II sheet of ice estimated TO be
about 5000 feet thick over all the
valley regions. So far as has been OBJ
served, no mountains are discernible
above the ice, or even any elevations
which can be attributable to underly-
ing mountains. The whole is q vast
plain at an elevation OF from 5000 TO
5000 feet above the sea level. This
is probably the last remnant of the
great ice cap which must. at some
time in the past, have covered nearly
or quite all the land from the pole to
the equator.

CENSUS bulletin No. 81, which has
just been issued, contains some
statistics of convicts in penitentiaries.
Some of the facts given are of general
interest. In 1850 there was 1929
convicts in penitentiaries, and the
ratio OF convicts to population was
7O9 to each million. In 1890 there
weie 1928 convicts, the ratio being
722, an increase of 13 to the million.
F. H. Wines, who prepared the bulle.
tin, thinks that further investigation
will SHOW that this increase is no,
alarming, as he is of the opinion that
crime of a serious character is really
on the decline. The ratio in this
State has changed but slightly. In
1850 with a population of 75,1lG
Washington had 81 convicts, the ratio
in this State has changed but slightly
In 1880, with population of 1916
Washington had 81 convicts, the
ratio being 719, while in 1890, with
S49. 800 people, it had 25l convicts, the
ratio being 71S. or one less than ir
1880.

POPULATION MOVING WEST.
An Interesting Bulletin From the
Census Office.

The last census bulletin issued saws: :
The center OF population on June l,
lS9O, with some discussion of the
movements of the center during the
past century, is given in the present
bulletin. 1t is a matter of special in
terest, as such movements summarize
the net result of the movements of
population during that period.
By the eleventh census the center
OF population in 1890 was in the fol.
lowing position: Latitude 80 deg. IL
min. SO sec., longitude s. deg. 80 min.
50 sec. In ten years the center OF pop.
ulaiion has moved westward SO min.
IL sec., or about forty-eight miles, and
northward min. 4S sec, or about nine
miles. 1t rests now in Southern Indi.
ana, at point little west OF south of
Greensburg, the county seat of Deca-
tur county and twenty miles east of
Columbus, Indiana. The surround
ings OF its location are shown upon the
sketch maps accompanying this bull
letin.
The closeness with which the center
OF population, through such rapid
western movement as has been re-
corded, has clung to the parallel Of
thirty-nine degrees of latitude can not
fail to be noticed. The most northern
point reached was in 1880; the most
southern point was in 1880, the pre-.
ceding decade having witnessed a rapid
development of population in the
southwest, Alabama, Arkansas, Mis-
sissippi and Louisiana having been
admitted as States and Florida an
nexed and organized as a territory.
The extreme variation in latitude has
been less than nineteen minutes, while
the hundred years OF record have nc.
complished movement of longitude
OF nearly 9.5 degrees. Assuming the
westward movement to have been uni.
formlY along the parallel of thirty
nine degrees Of latitude the westward
movement of the several decades as
follows: l70O-lSO0, Al miles; 1900.
1910, S6 miles; 1s1O.1s2O, 80 miles
1S201S3O, 80 miles; IS3O.lS4O. 55
miles; 1S40-1s5O, IS miles; 1850. 1850.
81 miles; IS6O-1S7O, Al miles: 1870
1850, 81 miles, and lSSO-1S9O. 4S
miles, total westward movement of
800 miles. The sudden acceleration of
movement between 1850 and 1860 was
due to the transfer OF considerable
body OF population from the Atlantic
to the Pacific Coast, twelve individuals
in San Francisco exerting rs much
pressure at the then pivotal point, viz,
the crossing of the S3d meridian and
the 39th parallel, as forty individuals
at Boston.

great city lying to the nOrthward will

West of the tower, along the Plais-
sance and overfowing into Washing
ton Park will be large and curious
aggregation OF structures, including
probably some of the foreign and State
buildings, and many of semi-private
construction, and of a nature which
cannot yet he described. Almost in
Vulnerable structures and exhibits,
such as reproductions of famous build
ings, etc, most Of them novel and
striking in character, have been pro-
posed; and it is not yet possible to tell
how many or which of them will be
erected. That there will be an as
tonishing array of them there can be
no doubt. and unquestionably some of
them will be important and exceed
ingly interesting features of the great
Fair.
All OF the important buildings will
stand on terraces four feet above the
general park level, thus greatly i'm
proving the general landscape effect
and rendering their own appearance
more imposing. From scores OF
domes and towers and minarets, flags
and streamers will be floating, and
both the exterior and interior Of the
will be swarm" with lib,
eral display of color. The beautiful
park with its magnificent array OF
architecture, will surely present one
of the finest spectacles the eyes of
man ever heheld.

tons Of 1878 and 1889, it is believed
that they will be surpassed by those
of the Columbian Exposition. The
Chicago site is four times rs large and
has Il frontage of two miles on Lake
Michigan, the second largest body OF
fresh water on the globe. The build
ings will cover twice the area and
cost twice rs much as did those of
Paris IN 1889. Alone they will cost
nearly fiAy per cent. more than
the total expense attending the Paris
Fair. The best architects in this
country have prepared the plans for
the several buildings and the struc-
lures they have designed will exhibit
the highest achievements of American
architecture.
