lished firm in Versailles, who made q
speciality of manufacturing fine lenses,
to make a sufficient number to fit three
lighthouses. When the first lot was
finished they were Immediately shipped
to the lighthouse board, who, having
approved the lenses, reshipped them to
the site of a lighthouse situated on o

Golden Gate on the rock-bound, treach-

BY some error of the maker or Of the
architect who made the plans for the
masonry the glasses were found to be
much too large when an attempt was
made to place them in position. To
remedy the evil would require taking
down the tower and rebuilding it.
After much official correspondence
from all sides it was decided to change

out, the lenses were sent back over the
continent AMI stored in n government
supply house near the point where
they we're to be used.
Sometime had now elapsed and the
first serious signs Of the Civil war
made themselves visible. Accordingly
all work was stopped on Improvements
that were not absolutely necessary, and
the tower that was to contain the much
shifted lenses was left unfinished.

sioners to whom was revealed the
weighty secrets of the Jewell plan for
making rain artificially, ard who has
given it ample and thorough trial at nu-
merous times since early spring, is salts
fed it is an unmitigated fake, pure and
simple. He says he and his colleague,
Mr.. Chamberlain, followed the instruc-
lions to the letter under all kinds of con-
ditions and failed to secure even a light
dew. During the early part of the season
the weather was so cold that it furnished
an excuse for failure, but later every con-
dition laid down by Jewell as necessary
to success has been perfectly fulfilled,
and yet the manufacture of gas according
to his instructions produced no rain.
Mr.. Cook says he is now satisfied the peo-

confidence game, but, on the other hand,

not generally known. it is a f1ct that
boots and shoes will be manufactured by

board having made q contract with
Thomas +. Conley of Duluth, who agrees
to pay the state SO cents per day for each
of 100 convicts. who will be put to work
as soon as new machinery arrives from
the East. A reporter who heard the ru-
MOI on the street made further inquiries
at the prison and the report was verified
by Warden Wolfer. The boot and shoe
shop will be located on the first floor of
the binding Irvine factory, and a number
of stands and shelves have already been
constructed. This matter has been con-
sidered by the DO. I'd of managers for
