OUT OF The BAG



Once Wrote Boo<.
Chicago. Dec. ia special to the
Times-Herald from Washington says:
John A Logan's secret is out at last.
In 1856 a book appeared from the press
OF New York firm entitled Uncle
Daniefs Story OF Tom Anderson and
twenty Great Battles" II was pub
iished anonymously. by an officer Of
the Union army" Many prominent
public men were covertly attacked In
It's pages, their names being para
phrased. Some of them. conspicuously
Senator Voorhees, of Indiana published
interviews in self-defense. All efforts
TO identify the author proved fruitless.
But the secret Is now out. John A.
Logan was the author and Tom An
derson" was himself. General Logan
wrote this book in 1884. and the follow
Ing year. He began IL while he was on
the republican ticket with Blaine as a
candidate for vice president. General
Logan told those who were honored
with his confidence that all the Incl
dents OF his book were actual occur
rences. He regarded the story as an
autobiography. The frame work Of
the story was imaginary. but its SUBJ
stance was drawn from General Lo-
gan's own experience and observations
In order to conceal his identity and
to avoid too pointed reference to prom
inent men In military and civil life,
General Logan changed geographical
and proper names to suit his purpose,
though nearly always leaving a clue
to his meaning. The story is told by
Uncle Daniel" who. in real life, was
Daniel McCook.' father of the famous
family of McCook boys. who entered
the army from Ohio. Colonel Bush, a
man with one arm, asks Uncle Daniel
FOR a story of some of his experiences
IN the war Uncle Daniel" arises, de-
ivers a short melodramatic prologue,
md begins by telling about a riot in
Allentown In 1861. Bowen, a promin-
mt man In that part of the state, had
excited the people by denouncing the
var as 'an Infamous abolition cru
'ade." the president as "villainous
and the United States soldiers |
Is "Lincoln's hirelings and dogs with |
collars around their necks." Here |
Colonel Bush interrupts the old man by |
lsking what became of this man |
Bowen.
Il understand" replied Daniel that |
lie now occupies one of the highest po-
itions the people of Indiana can give
o one of her citizens" This was said
n 1884. The book contains attacks
lpon other men then in public life.

HOSTING BY ELECTRICITY.
Moters Are Used Exclusively In the vlr-
ginius Mine.

noters Are Used Exclusively In the v1r-
ginius Mine.
A rather striking example Of the
progress which electricity Is making
In the industrial world and the ex-
tent to which II Is superseding steam
In to be found at Dave Bricker's yir-
ginius mine which supplies the Parrot
smelter with a great deal OF its ore
The Virginius mine is now operated
entirely by electricity and the engine
has been replaced by an electric motor
as result of the experience with the
electric hoist. A Standard reporter
visited the mine yesterday afternoon
and witnessed the operation of the
new electric hoist which has been in
operation for about three months. The
hoist Is operated by a 50-horse power
motor which Is connected with the
drum on which the cable is wound and
Is stopped and started by a rheostat of
the street railway type. The hoist is
provided with brake and clutch ar
rangements for throwing 1t In and out
OF gear. Electricity is used only while
the cage Is being hoisted, as IL is low
cred by friction gravity and a meter
registers the consumption of electrical
energy.
The electric hoist possesses many
advantages over the old-fashioned
steam hoists. one of the greatest of
OF operation. 1t is also cleaner and
more compact than the steam hoists
and is a great deal easier to operate.
1t works with wonderful smoothness
and Is in every way a decided inn
provement on the steam hoists The
new hoist gave such great satisfaction
that soon after II was put In Mr..
Bricker took the engine out of the car
penter shop and replaced IL with a
seven-horse power motor which has
also worked perfectly. An electric fan
is also run down in the mine by a lit
tie two-horse power motor and there
Is not a sign of steam anywhere
around the mine, either above or under
ground. The duplicate power which is
now furnished at the power house re-
duces the liability of interference In
the service to a minimum. This is the
only possible objection to the new style 4
hoist and IL Is more than counteracted
by It's many advantages. 1t will prob
ably not be very great while until
nearly all of the smaller mines of the
camp are operated by electricity
