A BIG DEAL.
Scheme TO Make Duluth the Center of tho

taken at the head of the lakes, and Is be-
ing engineered by IA combination consist.
ing of the Minncsuta 6ufuf cc-tpany, tho
Altamonte Water company and the Jay
Cooke interests. Tho Cooke Interests
along the st. Louis river are tremendous,
and three years ago an offer OF So, 000, 600
was refused by the owners of the property.
The contamination of the big deal now
on means the improvement Of tho water
power, by which electricity will be gener-
ated and used i'm the production of iron.
This will enable the iron men there to
smelt all of their own ore, which, up TO
the present time, they have been unable TO
do OH account of the great cost.
In addition 10 tho rich ore which is daily
shipped away from Miuesota there arc
hundreds Of thousands OF tons which will
not run over 40 per cent in iron lying on

A norwegian Ships Crew
Frustrated.
The Vessel Drifted Until She

Terrible Suffering of the SaI,vio On
the Voyage.

Norwegian ship Minded, Captain Chris
Hansen, from Mobile, September IL, for
West Hartlepoofe, has been towed in here
with IL OF her crew Frustrated with yell
low fever. Two other members OF The

Owing TO the spread of sickness among

drifted for several days and was finally
picked up of this coast by a tug which
brought her safe into port. Everything
possible Is being done for the sick men,
but the ship Will be Thoroughly disinfect-
I'd before anything or anybody Is allowed
10 Ian from her. On Oct. z the Minded
spoke the steamer Bernard, bound from
Port Antonio, Jamaica, for Boston, and
signaled her that the crew of the Minded
were down with Southern fever ana in
need Of medical assistance. Captain
Christensen asked for uuinine, which the
Bernard, however, was unable 10 furnish,
and the Minded passed on her way, being
handled by all the men who were in good
health, no regular watches being kept
and no work beyond the handling OF the
sails being done. The death Of the two
sailors cast great gloom over the sur
vivors. who were down with yellow fever,
and all on board speak OF the great suffer-
ing endured while on the way here.

THIRTY a HISTORY.
The Pension Roll Has Now Passed tho
Million Mark.

The past fiscal year Is marked by O2se of
the most interesting events in the history
of the country. The pension roll passed
the million mark. The country has now
the distinction of providing for n larger
number Of military pensioners than were
ever carried OF tho rolls OF any government
or of all governments at any one time
since the records of government first began
to be kept.
The most remarkable increase In tho
number of pensioners has taken place
within tho last ten yet-s. In 1865 tho
rolls contained only 80, $50 names; in 1875
there had hoen an increase to 234, sci, with
y further increase to 345, 1876 in 1856. 4.
Since tho latter year the number has al
most exactly tripled. Thc increase took
place chiefly under the first administration
OF Mr.. Cleveland anil under that of Mr..
Harrison.
At the close of the fiscal year 1883 there
were 452, 577 names on tho rolls-an in
crease of 1919, s21 dNing the four years
since 1884. AT the close Of 1892 there were
$40, 06S-a further increase i'm four years
Of 423, 491 names. The increase between
- tSS4 and 1855 Ind doubled tho increase Of
the preceding term, upA TO that time tho
highest record made. In the four years OF
the Harrison term it was not tho increase
but the total which was doubled.
Since the close of the fiscal year 1899
there has been an increase from $40, 06S
names 10 1,012, 935. This latter figure is
probably the high water mark, as the
names dropped from the rolls during the
past year because of deaths and for other
reasons brought the total down to $40, SEA
IA net gain of $50 for tho fiscal year.
The figures here given arc worth close
attention. They constitute a synopsis of
the central facts of American politics our
ing the last 80 years.-Now York World.

GEN. BARLOW AND GEN. GORDON,
Their Meeting on the Field of Gettysburg
and Fifteen Years After.

In addressing an audience in Indian
apolis on the evening Of Oct. 81 last Gem
eral John ID. Gordon told anew this Incl
dent Of his experience In the battle of Get
%tysburg:
GAS I rode over the CORY field / found a
major general OF tho Union army lying as
II ~lifeless, with the broiling sun shining
upon his face. / had seen him fall, and as
1 rode by / dismounted from my horse and
gave him water. A bullet had struck his
spinal column and had paralyked him. l
did not suppose that no could last an hour
and ordered a litter TO have him carried to
the rear. AS / stopped down beside him
he bade me take from his side pocket some
letters, which / found were from his wife.
AS his eye, strained with suffering, rested
for the last time, rs he supposed, on the
beloved signature he said:
"'General, IL you live through this war
aud meet my wife, Mrs. Francis g. Barlow,
remember to tell her that you saw me.
Tell her That you saw me fall and that
l fell fighting at tho front. Tell her / free

my one unutterablc grief is that must go

with mo the sweet relation OF wife shared
with me tho dangers and the privations of
the camp, lowering like an angel of protoc-
tion and Of inspiration TO duty. 1 replied
that ii 1 lived through tho conflict would
notify his wife I'm accordance with his ro-
guest. At tho instant the battle ceased l
sent q note 20 the wife, not telling her
that no was dead. rs 1 beloved, but Stat
he was desperately wounded and "A prison

renewed, and then, in that hasty retreat, L
thought no more of tho gallant Barlow.
"Tho wal progressed and ended. and,
strangely enough, Barlow recovered. He
saw I'm the newspapers that a Confederate
General Gordon, hearing my name
and initials, and who was q cousin OF

yitod one evening 10 take dinner art the

Mutiny on the High Seas.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12.--The Ameri-
can ship Bohemia arrived from Philadel-
phia this morning with stories of mutiny
and disaster. The crew, headed by second
mate Egan, mutiny after the ship had
been through a storm off Rio Janeiro and
against his will the captain had TO make
for port. With the exception OF the chief
officer there was not a man who sided
with the skipper.
The second officer who led the mutt
neers deserted at Rio ue Janeirp, but the
remainder of the crew are aboard. They
will probably be arrested on complaint OF
the captain and on their part say that
they will bavs the captain taken into
custody for cruelty on the high seas and

lponsible for the loss of one OF the star

ELIOTRorLATNa FOR SHIPS.
"A Method TO Prevent Corrosion and Keep
or BarpacJea. So Asrsfn

on B~arnacles. 80 -
The novel process Of ~electroplating with
copper the iron hull of a large ocean going
tug is being carried out in a Jersey City
drydock. When the plating Is finished,
tho inventor VIII be prepared to show that
the vessels bottom is perfectly protected
from barnacles and covered with q homo
geneous coating Of copper, which Is practi
cally indcstrucible. The attention Of tho
government has been called to the inven-
ton, and it Is being closely watched by tho
agents of foreign countr:H5.
This invention, it is hoped, will solve
the great problem which confronts all the
builders Of iron ships--how to protect the
hull from barnaclcs and corrosion. The
hull Of a wooden ship can easily be protect-
ed by simply mailing on sheets Of copper,
but this method cannot be used in the case
of a iron vessel. If the sheets of copper
are bolted directly to the Iron, galvanic ac-
tion is set up by tho salt water end tho
iron plates arc rapidly eaten away.
In the British navy n thick wooden
planking is first bolted to the iron hull
and then the sheets of copper are nailed to
the wood. This method Is effcctual SO far
as protection from barnacles is concerned,
but il is enormously expensive and adds
considerably 20 tho weight of the vessel. r
Tho hulls Of American warships are not
copper shcathod at all, being merely coated
with copper paint, which soon becomes
useless. Tho ship requires drydocking>
and cleaning twice q year TO keep the bot
,om in anything like condition. To dock
a big warship and clean the hull costs
about $l2, 900, besides the risk of straiEing
tho vessel and tho time wasted While she
is in drydook.-New York Tribune.
