He Speaks Well of Us.


Highland Press: 1t was the edit
or's good fortune to accompany r..
J.. Engles to Mineral Point Monday
morning. At first sight, one would
hardly believe Mineral Point was u
large city, with over 1900 inhabitants,
for the reason that il is shaded by
dense forests Of evergreen trees which
are very ornamental. The city proper
is situated on seven hills in Il parallel
direction with each other, with n
small ravine between them. Beauti-
full mansions and villas are scattered
throughout the city, while the bust
ness center IS wetl and substantially
made of brick. The different
thoroughfares are plenty wide, and
IN good condition, at the middle Of
each crossing small electric light
is stationed, and in fact the majority
of the business houses are lighted by
electricity As this was our first trip
To the metropolis of Iowa county, we
oculd not forego the pleasure OF visit
ing the great zinc works. As Messrs
Jones and Snow were absent from the
city, Mr., w. Il. Smith, superintend-
ent of the works, kindly showed us
around, ia and among the number
less buildings. What we saw, we can
but family put In print, for space
does not permit us. Nevertheless,
all Mineral Point should feel proud
Of the men. who by their integrity
and leech-lille methods, have finally
come out on top, and made it what it
Is, a lasting benefit to the city-and
many other cities and localities as
we'll. We hear the remark that the
pulp mill was to start operation again
soon Experiments have been made
with very satisfactory results, and
soon this industry will be in flour
ishing condition also, With their
manufactures, the people IRE proud,
and why shouldn't they b.? OF
course, we saw Bros. Crawford and
BENEFITS, with their sleeves rolled
up to the shoulders, all busy a could
be. Lawyer Fielder, j. Mulhairn, IT..
We'll and many Others stopped and
shook hands with IL. We will visit
Mineral Point again.

News and Notes.

The yellow fever outbreak at Santos,
Brazil, where it is reported that people
are dying in scores on the streets, on the
ships in harbor and in homes, will recall
to some old officers of the Navy the DAYS
of March, 1850, when yellow fever ragged
SO diSastrOusly at Santos and Rio Janeiro.
At both cities people were dying of the
fever by the hundreds on shore, bells
were tolling all day long, and funeral
PROFESSIONS filled the streets, until the
Government ordered all interments to be
made at night, and privately. There
were many vessels lying in the barber of
Rio whose crews had been depleted by
the fever until there were not enough
men on board to get any of the ships out
of the harbor. The old line-of-battle
ship Ohio, on her way to New Y Ork from
the Pacific, contracted the fever while
obtaining supplies at Rio, and lost
number of valuable officers and men;
the stOreship Lexington had similar
experience from the fever, and a small
paddle-wheel steamer made the rounds
of the shipping twice day to remove
the sick and the dead. March, April and
May are the months when yellow fever
is the most dreaded in Brazil; and,
strange to say, up to 1870, Rio Janeiro
anu CduIOo "Olo uOIGO lOT IeIndIkdUlJ
healthy conditions. 1t has been said that
yellow fever was introduced in Brazil by
vessels which, on their way to California
in 1S4950, had previously put into some
of the West India Islands for supplies.
1t is noteworthy fact that the re-
cent depression in business and the
shrinkage in values have told in the col
leges with unusual severity upon those
students who live in Western States. Es-
peclally is this the case with the students
in the graduate schools of the UNIVERSE
ties, for these students support their
way through college largely by their own
effort. Speaking of these Western stu
dents, the last number of 1.-THE Harvard
Graduates Magazine" says: sit appears
that some OF them own small farms in
the Western States or have invested their
scanty savings in Western mortgage or
in the securities of Western railroads.
Many of these investments have made
little or no return to the owners, and in
some cases have caused new expenditure.
At all events, many students who
thought they had secured themselves
leisure for year or two of study at Har-
ward have been obliged to forego their
second year at the university or to leave
in the middle of their first year, thus
abandoning the most cherished ambi-
ton of their lives-the fitting of them
selves for college and university work
at the very moment when the accom-
plishment of this high purpose seemed
to be within reach"
