The Future United States.

The population Of the United
States will increase for many years
yet, but never again in 50 great a
ratio as during the last century"
said Prof. Howard w. Shaw, now at
the Southern. This country can
support a population Of 300, 900, 900
much more easily than France can
support her 40, 900, 900, but after we
touch the hundred million figure our
increase will be slow. 1t is cheap
homes and high wages that now at
tract immigration. Low-priced Hand
will soon disappear and with it will
go high wages, despite the wisdom Of
statesmen. Then, instead Of con
slant stream of homeseekers pouring
into America. Il considerable stream
will pour out towards the fertile
lands Of South America and Southern
Africa. Uncle Sam will probably be
gin the twentieth century with So,
600, 600 people; he will do well if he
ends it with an increase of 20, 600, 000.
BY that time-the beginning of the
twcntyttrst century-wc will be a
homogeneous people. There will be
no longer Instantaneous and Ger
man Americans, but everybody will
be American pure and simple. The
many streams that are now flowing
hitherward from all parts Of Europe
will have amalgamated, and the re-
suit will he one of the best balanced
and most intellectual peoples the
world has ever known lobe Dem

4 Smart Yankee Skipper.

A writer in the Nautical Magazine
tells a story Of how Yankee skipper
contriyed to free his ship from rats.
While he lay in port he discovered
that one of the British ships then in
the harbor had among her cargo a
great quantity of cheese. He there
fore found an excuse for hauling over
TO her and mooring his own packet
alongside. The next step was to
procure a plank, smear it we'll with
red behring's, and place it so as to
lead through one Of the ports Oh
board the Englishman. The imme-
diate result was a wholesale emigra-
ton Of the rats from the American
ships hold TO the cheese-latlen vessel
alongside. -Chambers Journal.

Soldering Metal for Aluminium.

This is the invention Of AleXius
RAIDER, of Christiania, Norway. 1t
consists in combining cadmium, zinc,
and tin mixed in substantially the
following proportions, viz: Cadmi-
um, fifty parts: zinc, twenty parts:
tin the r mainder. The zinc is first
melted in any suitable vessel, then
the cadmium is added, and then the
tin in pieces. The mass must be well
heated, stirred, and then poured.
This soldering metal can be used for
a variety of different metals, bat is
especially adapted to aluminium.
The proportions Of the various in
gradients may be varied in accordance
with TIE use to which the article is
To be put. For instance, whore a
strong and tenacious soldering is re-
Quired, a large proportion of cadmium
can be used: where great adhesion is
desired. larger proportion Of zinc
would be used: and where nice and
durable polish is desired, greater
per cent. of tin would be used
The alloy thus made, independent Of
its use as solder for aluminium, IS
light in weight and capable of taking
a high polish.

FATAL BLAZE AT CHICAGO.
Two Women Lose Their Ives Mother
and Child Missing.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 1S.-Dwellings and
stores, fifteen buildings in all, were
burned this morning and two lives lost
at Engiewood. The two people burned
were women.
The fire started at Wright and Sixty
third street, in a bakery. While IN
hysterical condition, Mrs. w. Butler,
one of the victims, though not really in
danger, jumped from a third story
window of the Hotel Kent and striking
on her head, was instantly killed. An
other unfortunate Was an employe in
the bakery, John Howard, who was
roasted to death.
A woman and child seen at window
in one OF the burning structures had
not been accounted for after the fire
and may have persisted.
The financial loss, which aggregates
$4,000, was distributed among nearly
three dozen persons, chiefly small
house owners and shopkcepera.

EIGHTEEN MEN HURT.
Terrible Accident in the Mine at Besse-



BEssEMER, I1ich., Oct. 1S.-An acct
dent which may result in the death OF
four men, and which jeopardized the
lives of fifteen others, occurred this
morning at No. shaft of the Colby
mine.
When the work hour arrived this
morning nineteen men got into the cage
with which this mine is equipped, to be
lowered to depth of 500 feet. Brake
man John Ryan was letting the cage
with its human freight into the
earth ct lively rate, when
his iellow-brakeman noticed that
the rope had nearly given out
on Ryan's drum and shouted TO him
to apply, the brake. His horror may be
imagined when instead of applying the
brake to the descending stage Ryan
threw it wide open.
Ryan stood Tor moment in his pc.
sition in the engine house on the sur
face. He was dazed, for he knew that
the bottom of the shaft was a scene OF
disaster. Quick as q flash he flew from
the engine house, only stopping for his
coat and hat, and made for the woods,
in the painless depths of which he is
still wandering.
Only one of the nineteen men in the
cage escaped unframed. The other
eighteen are at the Gogebic Hospital.
Everyone of them is suffering from
broken legs, arms and shoulders, and
many of them have both legs and an
arm broken Four are believed to be
hurt internally, besides having their
limbs broken.
Il IS miracle how they escaped with
their lives. The chapter of accidents

There are comparatively few round
top trunks made now. The idea was
that greater resisting power could be
obtained with least weight by imitat-
ing to some extent the shape Of an
egg. which. as we know. will bear an
absurdly great weight, but unfortu
nately there was no guarantee that
the baggage-smasher would always
stand the trunk the right way up.
His failure to do this gave number
less reminders Of the fact that no
box is stronger than at its weakest
point, and the damaged sides became
very common. Now most trunks
are made with fat tops, and are so
strong all over that it is very diff
cult. even for an expert trunk-smash-
