Superior Iron company has decided to
raise the pumps in It's hematite mine and
allow the working to fill with water.
The strikers are still very firm in their
detsrmin alton to remain out. They
think that after the water has risen to a
oertain height in some Of the soft ore
mines the companies will aooede to the
scale and start up again, as they claim IL
will ruin the properties II the water Is
permitted to rise to some Of the upper
levels. The mining engineers and OFF,
cials generally do not agree with the
miners on this point claiming that the
water will not injurs the mine In the
least.
1t will take from three to five months
for some Of the larger mines TO I'LL with
water. Many of the strikers have left the
range during the last few days The ma
jority of those going will seek employ
ment on the Gogebic and Mesaba ranges.
Supplies are being sent in from outside
for the support Of the strikers in distress
here. Soliciting committees are meeting
with good encouragement in the copper
region. and the men here appear happy
and are apparently not Uiuch concerned

EXPORTS OF BRITISH PRODUCE.


The statistics of the United Kingdom
show that the exports of British produce
were worth e23, 372, 297 less in 1898
than in 1882. The decrease during the
l2 years was at the rate of 1882, 297
year. The value of the exports Of
British produce in 1882 was &c IFS.
I'd. per capita of the population. In
1898 il had fallen off TO IS lbs. Cd per
capita, the loss of export trade during
the dozen years Of free trade being at
the rate of 81 IS. Sd. per capita of pop
ulation per annum.
Free traders in this country should
make a note Of these facts. 1t might
be well for protectionists to place this
in their hats SO as 10 remind the free
traders, when they get to work on their
campaign lies again, that, during pc
Rod of dozen years of free trade in the
United Kingdom, the exports of British
produce decreased at the rate of $40
900, 900 year, or IS per capita of the
population, This is one of the things
that the English free traders recommend
Americans TO adopt.

BULL Fight IN COLORADO.

1t Comes on in Spite OF the Governors
Protests.
DENVER, Col, Aug. Ex-Governor Nc
Intyre sat in his office and kept the wires
sizzling with messages imploring the Off
GERS of Cripple Greek TO enforce the law
against cruelty TO animals and stop the
second bull fight. All his invocations
were futile, for the sheriff was not present
and all pledges made with the chief execu-
tive were as straw in the wind Six thous-
and people paid for admission, and the
fight went ON with few feeble Interrupt
tions from the deputy who represented
Sheriff Bowers. Deputy Sterling made
several puerile attempts to enforce the law,
but the efforts were of such a farccal
character that they were TO the crowd much
the same as the banderillos were TO the
bulls, serving only to inflame them.
Two justices of the peace were held by
the management at the entrance of the
amphitheater. and as fast IA the deputy
effected an arrest the justice would accept
bond. AS the appetites of the crowd were
whetted by the delay there was "A loud and
angry demand for the show to proceed,
and the deputy, recognizing the folly of
attempting To stem the strea,S yielded
and the fight was allowed 10 80 ahead.
These delays sufficed to abbreviate the
fiesta" for instead of two or three bulls
as promised by the manager, the killing
was limited to one animal, and when
darkness fell the performance came To "A
premature end. A prize fight TO a finish
was also on the programme, but that had
To go with other features. 1t took pre-
cisely four minutes for the victim TO re-
ceive the coup de grace. The animal,
after making gallant fight for life fell
prone To the ground amid silence that
was oppressive.
Then IA volley of applause rang out as
the bull. with blood squirting from mouth
and nostrils, staggered 20 his feet and
slowly struggled to reach the barrier
against which he leaned for support.
Gathering himself for "a final effort, the
gallant animal tried tried TO reach one of
his tormentors, but fell before reaching
the matador Rallying once more, the
bull dashed his sides and was about to
lunge at prosecutor, when the toreadore

twist delivered the death wound that
snapped his spinal cord

OF CYCLING DANGERS.
Los Angeles Times
In the opinion OF many people the
greatest danger that glares abroad from
The simmer of the flying wheels is the
prospective damage to physicians in
comes caused by the splendid exercise
that the cycle affords to men and women
who have heretofore been cooped up in
doors with too few opportunities for
breathing the fresh air. Cycling is like
all other things in this world; il may be
overdone. There are, no doubt, some
persons so constituted that they should
not ride at all, and there is also a num-
erous class who ride without sense or
reason, just as there are people who eat
too much, work too much or drink too
much; but. taken in moderation, there is
no question in the minds of sensible peo-
pie. including hundreds OF learned ply
sicians. that the wheel fills want that
the stuff of doctors shops can never hope
to. The idiotic bicycle scorcher will kill
himself in time, no doubt, and it is to be
hoped that his grave will be an early
one, but all the wheelers are not scorch-
ers, and hundreds OF thousands OF them
have no AMBITION in that direction. In
fact, the scorcher is largely in the minor
ity. That the wheel has come to stay is
in the dictionary OF facts, and no number
of medical scarecrows can scare it from
the highways and byways which it makes
picturesque.
