All Upper Peninsula Mines Closing.

Orders have been received TO close
down the Winthrop mine, at Ishpeln-
ing. Thissviil throw about 400 men
out of employment. Only two big
mines arc left in working order in that
section. and it is thought that one of
these will close down. The cause of
the closing down of all the mines is
said to be the over-production of the
past year. The product of Lake SUI
perior mines last year was 1900, 900
tons, an increase of 2, O0O,O 900 tons over
1891. This spring there were $500, 900
tons of unsold ore in eastern ports. OF
the other mines, many have been UNI
able to pay expenses during the past
few years.

Gov. Altgeid Attacked.

A sensational sequel is to the front
as an echo of Gov. Altgeld's release of
the Haymarket anarchists. The Chi
cago journal raises the question
whether he is legally governor of the
state of Illinois, or a citizen of the
United States. 1t is asked are his acts
legal as governor, particularly the par
don of the anarchists
The opinion is expressed that the
famous Gov. Boyd case of Nebraska,
may be re-enacted in Illinois with John
p. Altgeld as the principal actor. The
journal says: "Gov. Altgeld bases his
claim to citizenship on the simple state
ment that his father was naturalized
while the son was minor child. John
p. Altgeld was born in Prussia in 1S4S,
and came to this country with his pa
rents when a boy, his father settling
on farm near Mansfield, o. If the
father of Altgeld was made a citizen
while the latter was under 81, always
providing that the father was legally
naturaliZed then there can be no ques-
ton as to the governors title TO citizen
ship; but if Mr.. Altgeld, senior, waited
until his son was over 81 before taken
out papers then, most assuredly, the
title of the governor to citizenship is
badly clouded."
The journal continues and says that
Altgeld's claim to citizenship is with.
out proper proof, and if he cannot es-
tablish his claim his official acts-in-
Guiding the pardon of the anarchists
are not legal.
Gov. Altgeld in reply TO this attack
says that his parents came TO this coun-
try when he was only few months old
and his father took the steps necessary
TO become a citizen at Mansfield, o.,
soon after their arrival there, and that
anyone interested can satisfy them
selves of his citizenship by a little in
vestigation.

The South Side is not entitled to

Mistakes Abont Alcohol.

There is common belief that alcohol
gives new strength and energy after
fatigue sets in. The sensation of fatigue
is one of the safety valves Of our ma
chine. To stife the feeling of fatigue, in
order to do more work, is like closing
the safety valve so that the boiler may
be overheated and explosion result. 1t
is commonly thought that alcoholic
drinks aid digestion, but in reality the
contrary would appear to be the case,
for it has been proved that a meal with
out alcohol is more quickly followed by
hunger than meal with alcohol. In
connection with the sanitation of armies
thousands of experiments upon large
bodies of men have been made and have
led to the result that, in peace or war,
in every climate-in heat, cold or rain
soldiers are better. able to endure the
fatigue Of the most exhausting marches
when they are not allowed any alcohol
at all. That mental exertions of all
kinds are better undergone without al
cohol is generally admitted by mostp peo-
pie who have made the trial.-We Westmin-

The servant Problem Not New.

Students of household management
will learn with satisfaction that in 1866
many of the evils now to be complained
of were distinctly recognized. Some of
the more curious fines which were i'm
posed by country gentleman upon Of
Tending servants were a penny for leav-
ing door open, missing prayers, leav-
ing beds unmade after presumably a.
n.y., end cooks could only have follow
ers at the rate of penny fine for each
one. A curious, custom seems to have
then existed that entree to the house was
denied during the family meals, and as
the fine for allowing a breach Of this
custom was heavy it may be presumed
that the sin was esteemed great. .-Lady's
