have entered into his 77th year,
born in New York state he emf
grated to Ohio when but 10 years
old. Mr.. Bort learned the printers
trade at Ravenna, o., on paper
edited by his uncle. In III he came
to Logan and with the exception a
short residence in st. Louis, has
made Logan his home. On coming
to Logan Mr.. Bort was employed
as foreman on the Sentinel and got
out the first issue. A short time
after he became half owner, sell

MINES RESUME.

Last Monday found every mine
within Shawnee, in operation,
which is the first occurrence of the
kind in this place for many months.
The largest. the Xxx and Shawnee
Valley mines are being operated
on the cooperative or lease plan.
tits an undisputed fact tina t under
the present system of adjusting the
scale that the company who oper-
ates machine mine is given con-
siderably the best Of it, and it is
wisely considered by pick miners
that they must either compete with
machine mined coal or remain idle,
which state Of affairs is largely due
to the great majority of the ma
chine mines. At present seventy
five per cent of the miners are op-
orators. The coal is mined and
sold at the market price, and after
paying the expense of the mine
they pocket what is left, and by SO
doing are violating no rules of their
organization and are enabled to
get portion of the work.
The day for mining coal with the
pick is long since gone and mines
operated in this manner can no
longer be successfully operated ex-
cept on the lease plan, and if that
can not be done, nothing is left but
to remain idle, and Shawnee with
her 1000 inhabitants has the cold
fact staring them in the face. With
nothing but pick mines, and those,
to a great majority worked out, at
le asst too much so as to justify the
expense ofnew machinery, and as
n majority of the miners of this
place own their homes and have
nothing more, they are simply
driven to this manner as a last re.
sort and their every act has so far
received the hearty endorsements of
the citizens in general, with hope
that each and every man engaged
about the mines shall endeavor to
aid in every manner in his power
to have the partnership thus FORM
cd pleasant and agreeable en-
ployment.-ShaWnee Journal.

Probable Double Hanging.

Mr.. Isaac Edwards will suffer the
misfortune of being hung by the
neck until dead next Thursday
night, unless Governor Mckinley
comniutes his sentence or gives
him respite, and it is improbable
that he will do either, although ef-
forts are being made to get him to
do one or the other. Some very
excellent people are trying hard to
save Mr.. Edwards neck and the
governor, who is4at this writing in
Cleveland, is being deluged with
letters and kilograms.
An effort is also being made to
obtain respite for William Taylor,
who killed and robbed Farmer
Yoakim in this county. His devot-
ed lawyers want to get his case be.
fore the supreme court, but are
hampered by the fact that the
fact that the court Is not in session.
They therefore ask that the gov.

go before the highest legal tribuna
and, peradventure, save his neck

To BE Increased With the Indemnity
Paid by China.
WASHINGTON, July lit is the be-
lief among the officials here that Japan
will use large part Of the war indem-
nifty which China is to pay her for the
purpose Of materially increasing her
navy. The financial resources of Japan
will be abundant during the coming
year, as she will receive over $100, ,000,-
600 before the first Of May, and thereaf-
ter about $2O, 100000 q year for five
years. This will be drawn entirely from
China, and will be in addition to Ja-
pans usual receipts from customs and
internal revenue. The authorities there
have already indicated their purpose of
using considerable part Of the funds
on new ships.
Americans May Build Them.
A Japanese expert visited here some
time since and went to the various Amer
ican yards. Mr.. Kurino, the minister,
also visited the Cralnp yards. AS a re-
suit of the talk there seemed little doubt
that one or more large ships would be
ordered by Japan. The government
was certainly disposed that way, and it
is believed that If delay has occurred in
closing the contract it must be due to
the conditions imposed by the American
builders.

THE WALRUS ON LAND.
He Is just as Helpless as a Canalboat
Would BE.

Would BE.
As might be expected walrus is
about as helpless ON land as CanalbOat.
1t is with no little difficulty and much
hitching and floundering that he drags
his huge bulk upon sandy shore even
with the boosting he gets from behind
by the breakers as they roll i'll and dash
against him. His hind tlippers are of
little use ON land, and on sand or peb-
bles, where his front fippers do not
hold well, the labor of floundering for
ward is so great that he never stirs be-
yond the edge Of the water and usual
ly lies with his body half awash, with
the salt spray dashing over him like
torrents of rain. On solid rock or ice he
gets along much better, and often a
herd will spread several rods back from
the waters edge.
The females and younger walruses
have far less development of neck To
cucumber them and therefore enjoy
more freedom of motion than the old
males. who actually seem great bur
den to themselves. These creatures are
strictly social in their habits and always
90 in herds, whether travelling, feeding,
lighting or resting ashore. In the days
before the slaughter of all living crea-
lures became "a ruling passion in the
breast of man the Pacific species in
babited the whole of Boring sea and
straits in herds which often contained
thousands and even tens of thousands OF
individuals st. Nicholas.

ThPIniStnCleS.

Themistocles, the hero Of Salamis,
was sent into Punishment by the prac-
tice of ostracism. This was purely
Athenian device to prevent any citizen
becoming too great. When any man ac-
quired such prominence as to be unsafe
to the state, "a number of citizens de-
manded vote, which was taken by
writing on shells the name of the too
prominent citizen. If a majority voted
against him, he was sent into exile, not
because he had done anything, but for
fear he might do something, He staid
away from five to ten years. then re-
turned and resumed his standing as
citizen without loss of property or rep
utatiOn. ThemistOcles was ostraCized
and went into exile, where he was soon
accused of reasonable correspondence
with the Persians. He was about to be
arrested, but fled to Persia. He gained
great influence at the Persian court and
projected an invasion of Greece, but
died, it is supposed by poison, before
his plans could be realized Exchange.
