MINNEAPOLIS.
NOTE AND COMMENT.

They were children of perhaps twelve
and fourteen. They were discussing
wind storms, cyclones and kindred sub
jects. One of these boys, the fourteen
year old, had just told about having
seen a house blown off its foundations
while he was down in Kansas with Ills
mamma.
Hull That's nothin'." said the
twelvp-year-old disciple of Mulhatton.
'Y' ought t seen what L did up to St.
Cloud in the cyclone. l saw the cy-
clone pick up a basket of eggs from front
of a grocery, carry it MORN mile and
drop it Oh a haystack without breakin'
one egg"
Notice that this boy was only twelve
years old, that he said he saw this bas-
ket of eggs carried more than mile,
and thai none of the eggs were broken,
and then turn your calculation loose TO
ngure what he will be when his powers
are fully developed.

The BshrisE sea Case.
tpbiladslphiaI Times

The London Times processes itself sur
prised that any Americans could object 10
the reference Of the case Of the sealer say
ward to the Supreme Court. In England, Il
saws, "the judgment Of the c0u,t will be re-
ceived with respect. Its decision in fayor
Of Mr.. Blaine's contentious would IN NJ
sense be binding upon us, and an adverse
decision won d put an end 10 Mr.. Blaine =
policy at "A stroke"
That i. true, but that il precisely why
these legal proceedings at the present time
appear inOppOrtune, if they are TO be re-
garded in any sense as International pro-
ceedings. Since Great Britain would not
De bound to accept the Judgment Of the SUI
preme Court unless IL were in her favor,
such n judgment could not settle the diplO-
matte controversy, but could only add TO
The complication.
Americans generally have very little sym
patty with MIR. Blaine in the manner with
which he has conducted this controversy
and the unnecessary issues which he hae
raised, but they are entirely in accord with
him in the practical object originally had IN
view-the protection Of the seal fisheries.
This object can only be secured by the CO.
operation of the nations most interested.
and Americans have hoped that good sense
and good temper would ultimately prevail
10 this end. II the proceedings undertaken
at Washington are intended TO interrupt
the negotiations and TO lead 10 further eva
sion and delay, it is not surprising that
Americans should look upon it a. a piece OF
sbMp practice that makes the yagaries OF
our own State Department respectable.

BalZac has said that woman Of thirty

age, and it il indeed true that all women

forty than twenty when in the zenith Of

Perhaps the secret lies in the simple fact
that the woman Of twenty must be pleased,

ihrower Of the Senate, using ell the re-
sources Of dsmnatory rhetoric TO character
ize his opponents, and attracting large
audiences to witness the slow process by
which he roasted his adYersaries.
But his party has gone back on him. Inc
bliss Of his retirement invites his attention.
Ne longer will he pose before the country
as the leader Of Republican hosts. As a
consequence he is both sour and bitter.
The old love has turned to dlsdain, and now
he hurls his thunderbOlts at beth parties

tented with everything and everybody, want

ADvERTrsEmENr OF COUNTIES.

At the meeting Of the Board Of Agricul-

ton was offered by Judge Hendley;
THAT the authorities Of each county OF

ton Of the county, it's advantages, re-

tions Of Virginia has presented in the shape

ment Of its history, its social attractions
and its various advantages In the point
of products and general resources. This
county is Charlotte. a few years ago MAJOR
Il. Y. Gaines, q citizen Of that county, ana

ture. prepared by request a very interesting
sketch Of Charlotte in comparatively brief
compass which might well be taken 40 a
model bv other counties il the suggestion OF
Judge Hendley is carried into pratical ef-
feet.
This SUGGESTED is an excellent one, for
each county would be stimulated by it to
make the very best exposition OF its gene
raj character and resources, which would
not be the case il all the counties were to
unite, according 10 sections, and present a
general account Of the different adj
vantages which they possess. Pamph-
let's Of this nature should not con-
tain merely bald and stereotyped
statement OF local advantages, but should.
ir possible, be put together in a form that
would interest general reader. This is the
character Of the pamphlet Of Major Gaines.
TO which we have referred, and this as
far as practicable should be the character OF
every pamphlet Of this kind, if the highest
benefits are to be secured from its issue.

A. steam Wharf Crane.

A TWENTY-FIVE ton steam crane has been
built by the firm of Shanks 4 Son, ArbrOath,
scotland. II is used for loading vessels
with coal in a way which will be easily un-
derstOOd from the illustration. When the
loaded ear has been run alongside the
crane, il is hOisted up in cage or cradle,
as shown, the wheels being secured by
folding up the END pieces of rail attached
to the cradle, which are jointed for the pur-
pose. IL is then swung round the quay,
and lowered TO the desired position over the
ship's hatchway, when by means OF a sim
ole and 1cfent arrangement with which
the crane is provided, the truck is TIED up,
and its contents emptied into the .iOld. The
truck with the cage il then Sung round,

taken by another, when the operations are
repeated. A cargo Of 1000 tons Of coal can
thus be shipped in about ten hours. With

a similar purpose. The jib of this crane 10

gear also consists of pair of engines.
The speed Of lifting, in double gear, is 20
f., and in single gear, 40 fl. per minute,
and that Of Slowing 70 n. per minute ; but
all may be varied as desired. The plan of
having seperate engines for the lifting and
Slowing motions is adopted TO Obviste the
necessity for using engaging and disergag-
ing clutches, the latter arrangement being
not only hard work for the operator OF the
crane, but alss dangerous when heavy
weights are being lifted. The boiler, which
is of the vertical type. is Of ample power.

Fortunes in Iron and teeIIpdu.trie..

The iron and steel.making interests OF the
world, in all their varied ramitlcatiOns, are
probably, on the whole, the most profitable
form of manufacturing that exists. Wher-
ever great iron enterprises have been built
IN. great fortunes have been made. Iron
and steel seem to he the magicisn'sswand
for creating wealth. In England. in France
in Germany, as well as in Pennsylvania
Ohio, and Illinois. great iron and steel
making centres are invariably centres Of
wealth. And the prospect for making large
profits In this industry Is more PROM
ieing for the next ten years than at any
time in the history Of the past. The
world is hungry for iron and steel,
aud its consumptiye wants are increasing

THE FEDERAL ELECTION ELL.

THE FEDERAL tLEtiiVN DILL
Nv the aid Of one single vote. and that
vote Of the man whose wealth aud nothing
else placed him IN the Nice-Presidcncy,
Hoar was enabled yesterday TO call W
again his pet Federal Election bill IN The
Senate. There Is not much likelihood thai
IL will get through, as only about ak weeks
of the session vet remains, aud the majority,
knowing that they Will be held responsible
ilsn extra session Of the Fiiiy-seconi Coz
gress is forced on the country, Will IN al
likelihood, again very soon set II ASIDE ioI
more important business. Besides this, u
Hoar could only get tie vote on the ques-
zion Of its taking up, 1t is very evident that
his party colleagues have grown out OF pa
thence with his mOss-backed Radical B0uI-
bonism, and desire no more Of il.
II any Elections bill is needed at all
however. IL isOne which will be sufficiently
drastic TO purge the North Of the audaciou'
presumptions of the Radical wOuld-be au'
tocrats Of the country. A bill, for instance
which would make it a penal offence foI
Bill Chandler TO steal New Hampshire, OF
for the leaders of the Republican party t.
throw Connecticut into chaos through then
reckless attempts TO force into the Gov
ernor's chair a man defeated at the polls, o.
for reyolutionists in Nebraska TO refuse tC
accept the situation when rebuked by tho
people, would be a measure Of which The
whole country might approve.
There is certainly some radical defect in
our system Of government when
party rendered desperate at the prospect OF
seeing the spoils Of Office wrested from
them by popular indignation, can commit
such crimes as these against the peace
dignity and welfare of any community
with impunity, and it is source OF general
alarm when the laws are 50 lax that the
.reyolutionists are induced even TO dare at
tempt such high handed proceedings. II
