This progressive Texan thinks it

Birmingham could make Bessemer

vast deposits OF highly magnetic iron,
better in quality than the Michigan
ores, is but 1910 miles away. This
district also imports ion from Cuba
and ( is it from Wisconsin.
Mr.. Lauderdale says that the Texas
ores average about 65 per cent OF
magnetic iron, which is in excess q

average appears to be about % pei

his recent visit 10 Freidrichsruhe. conveyed
a request from the Emperor to meet Prince
Bismarck at Altoona. Prince Bismarck has
not yet given his assent to a resumption OF

His delay in responding appears to be due
to determination to assure himself as to
how the Emperor is likely soon to stand

cellor Won Caprivi denies the rumor that he

the Conservatives and old Cartellers, who
have never ceased in their admiring al.

failed to find Caprivi tine ducutile tool he ex-

rBY DuNLAP's CABLE COMPANY /

LONDON, March 1.-THE announcement
which has come from Paris of the proposed
marriage of Colonel Henry Mapleson, whose
name as an impressario is a household word
in two continents, with Madame Laura
Schirmer Byron, has caused a great
sensation which is not limited to theatrical
circles. The ceremony has not YET
been performed, all reports to the
contrary Notwithstanding, but will be
on Tuesday morning at the English En-
bassy, and will be followed by the regula-
tion wedding breakfast, which will be given
at the house of Marquise de Presigne,
Colonel Ma2leson's aunt After short
honeymoon trip to the Riviera, the
couple will return to London, where the
future Madame Mapleson is engaged to sing
at the principal concerts and at the opera,
which will be given during the season. She
will also sing an engagement, IN all proba-
bility, which will insure her appearance in
Paris before very long.
Everybody is discussing this marriage,
because it was universally believed that
Mr.. Mapleson was married to Madame
Marie Roze. the popular prima donna, who
for some seasons was at the head of the Carl
Rosa Company and whose performance Of
the leading operatic roles has given her a
high place in the estimation and affection of
English music-iovers. In fact, for some
time Madame Roze added her supposed
husbands name 10 her own by the fashion.
able hyphen. They lived together as man
and wife for many years, and it is safe to
say that everybody believed that they were
what they represented themselves to be.
The course of true love, however, ran no
smoother with them than with the rest of
humanity, and last September they quar-
relied and separated. 1t was stated at that
Madam. Marie Rose. as we must call her
now, was about to seek for divorce from
her errant lord, and engagements were said
to have been made for her taking farewell
of the stage.
Colonel Mapleson then published letter,
in which he stated definitely that he and
Madame Roze were not married. This fact
he now emphasizes and furnishes conclusive
proof of it by the announcement OF his ap-
preaching nuptials.

don of the New York blizzard of three years
age. Somerset, Devon and Cornwall were
visited with particular severity. From
many places in the two latter counties there
has been no communication of any KIND
since last Monday, and how the people fare
there is only y matter of conjecture. The
record so far shows that 115 lives
have been lost and thousands OF
cattle and sheep. The railway
lines are still blocked. The railway
officials, working with almost superhuman
energy 10 clear the tracks, have taken the
desperate expedient of throwing some of
their finest rolling stock, which had become
derailed, over the embankments IN order to
get passage through for their trains.
In Somerset, on one local line where a
train was hopelessly buried in the snow, the
travellers made their way across weary
waste to the only farmhouse within reach.
There were % victims and only one spare
bed, but by general consent this room was
given up to 4 young couple who had only
that morning received the blessing of the
church upon their union. The generous
unanimlty with which the q heroes and he
roines waived their claims in the circum-
stances is deserving of record.

WARSHIPS WRECKED.
The .. S. Steamship Galena and the
Tug Nina Washed Ashore.
BOTH OF TIE CREWS SAFE ON LAM
A Heavy Sea Making Clean Breach Over
the Two Old Vessels.
ALL PERSONAL EFFECTS A TOTAL LOSS

VINEYARD HAVEN, MASS, March IA
The United States steamship Galena and
the United States steam tug Nina went
ashore at 1915 last night, one mile south OF
Gay Head Lighthouse, during strong south
erly wind aud dense fog. The Galena was
being towed from New York to Portsmouth
by the Nina.
Both vessels are badly damaged. The
officers and crews, " in number, were taken
off by the Galena's boats and breeches
buoy sent from the shore by the Massachu-
sets Humane Society's station men at Gay
Head. A heavy sea was breaking over the
vessels at the time.
News of the wreck did not reach here un-
til afternoon to-day, because of telephone
communication being cut off with. Gay Head
by last nights storm. Lieutenant Com
mander Bicknell came here from Gay Head,
distance of % miles, to telegraph and re-
port the disaster, returning to the wreck at
p. NJ. Nothing definite can be learned
concerning the wreck tonight, as heavy
southwest wind has been blowing all day,
making It impossible to reach Gay Head by
water and board the ship.
The steam tug Mercury, which arrived
here tonight, reports the sea making clean
breach over the two vessels when she
passed Gay Head at noon to-day. When
the gale moderates Captain II. S. Cook,
agent OF the Boston Tow Boat Company,
will go to the scene of the disaster in the
steam tug Mercury to ascertain the extent
of damage. The officers and crew of both
vessels are being cared for at Gay Head.
They saved nothing from the wreck, having
left the vessel hastily, bringing with them
no personal effects other than what they
wore.
The Galena is wooden ship. 910 tons,
built In 1878 at Norfolk, Va, BY the United
States, and was being towed to Portsmouth
Navy Yard to undergo repairs preparatory
to going into commission. She has three
new boilers on deck which were to be put
into her. The steam tug Nina is an iron
vessel oil 306 tons, built at Chester, Pa, in
1865.
