NELSON'S FAMOUS SIGNAL.

At the United States Institute, White
hall, at which; relics connected with Ira-
falgar and Nelson are to be exhibited,
there is a time-stained document, framed,
and hung on the western wall from which
it appears that the famous signal, Eng
was not wholly Nelson's, says the st.
James Gazette. Lieut.. Pasco.r who was re-
spcnsible for the signaling on the admir-
ais ship, makes the following statement:
.sHis Iordship came to me on the poop
and. after ordering certain signals to-,be
made, about a quarter TO noon, said: MIR.
Pasco, I want to say to the fleet, Eng
land confides that every man will do his
duty He added: You must be quick,
for have one more to add, which is for
close action / replied: If your lordship
will permit me to substitute expects" for
"contides'' the signal will soon be conn
the vocabulary, and "confides'' must be
spelt' His lordship replied in haste and
in seeming satisfaction, That will do.
Pasco make, it directly AS the last
hoist was handed down Nelson turned to
Capt. Backwood, who was standing by
him, with:
SHOW I can do no more. We must
trust to the great Disposer of all events
and the justice of our cause. / thank GOD
for: the great opportunity Of doing my
duty When Lord Nelson's message had
he ordered me to make signal for close
action and keep it UP. Accordingly I
5hoisted No. l6 at the topgallant masthead
and there it remained until shot away
Such, then, is the duly sworn and at
tested statement OF Nelson's flag lieuten-
ant which he gave to Col. Baylis, G. c.,
who presented it to the museum.

OYSTER SHELLS.

The waters OF Maryland produce one
third of the total oyster supply in the
world. 1t yields twice as many Of these
luscious bivalves as are grown in all for
eign countries combined. During the pres
ent century it has put on the market 400,-
0O0,O0O bushels of the toothsonne nollusks.
These have sold for the enormous sum of
$3.50, 900, 600. Almost all of this country is.
dependent for the abundance and cheap
ness of this edible on the supply of the
Chesapeake From here also come very
nearly all Of the oysters used for can
ming. In fact, the output .oi this industry
of Maryland is equal to on a-sixth OF all
the fisheries of the United 5tates put to-
getler, says the Philadelphia, Times.
The quantity Of oyster Shells landed up
on the shores of Maryland during the last
century has been reckoned at $4,000, ,0Q1
tons Until very lately the canning firms;
have had much trouble in getting rid of
the shells, having to pay, in fact, for the
removal of all that they could not give:
away. Recently, however, they have been
able to sell them. They are now shipped
to all parts Of the country, and are utilized
variously for roads, for lime and employed
in making. coal gas, They have also been
found to serve almost as well as stone, III
the manufacture of special grades Of iron
for railway beds. Cultivators of oysters
also employ them, having found that they
afford suitable surfaces for young oysters
to attach themselves to. They are like
wise used to some extent as chicken food.
They are very good for hens, the shells Of
eggs being: largely made of Them. The
trade received $4,000 in single syear. for

HUNGARY,s. MuLENIAL.

In Hungary the new year begins in the
sign of the millennium, which every sin
gle hungarian means to celebrate with
as much pomp as possible. Legend and
research have united to fix the year S96
after Christ as that in which the Hun
garian state was founded No doubt the
conquest by the Magyars under Arpad
took place at a. much earlier date but it
has been shown that in 1896 the Magyars
reached the fertile plain between the
Danube and the Thesis, which has re-
manned the home of the unadulterated
Hungarian element up to this day What
Hungary is going to celebrate is it's ex-
istence of a thousand years as a state,
and the clergy take part in the general
rejoicing, knowing of what Importance
it was to the church that the Hungar-
1ans century later sided with the west
ern church in the great dispute. The gov
eminent is anxious to mirror the whole
history of the Hungarian state and to
show its people the Slow development of
the wild Magyars into a nation of free
men, open to all progress such as are the

The position of chief of fire depart
ment in a big city like Minneapolis,
with it's acres of valuable building pro
perty, crossed by numerous railroad
lines and dotted with factories where
the fires are never banked" is one of
the utmost responsibility, and can be
entrusted only to a man OF unques-
toned character and ability.
August H. Runge, who has filled this
responsible position for several years
with so much credit to himself and to
the city, was born in New York in
1852, where he received common
school education.
What such man as this has to say
can scarcely fail tocarry weight with
It:

state that a snow slide occurred about
o'clock this morning at the Wander
bilt mine, two miles south of HALEY,
burying George Hague, miner 40
years of age, and a man known as
Russian Pete, blacksmith. Hague was
found six feet from the mouth of the
tunnel three hours after under twelve
feet of snow and debris dead. Pete
was discovered half an hour after the
accident under three feet of snow and
timbers, unconscious, but not seriously
injured. He will recover. Hague had
gone below the mill after some tim
bers, and seeing snow sliding made
an effort to reach the tunnel, when he
was overtaken and buried.
Pete was at work in the blacksmith
shop. They were the only men out
side the tunnel when the slide came.
The entire night shift was in the board
ing house, a short distance above the
mill, at the time the snow was Ejassing
a few feet below the building.
The Vanderbilt mill and works are
total loss, which is estimated at
$4,000. Hague, the dead miner, has
brother and other relatives living lat
Bellevue, where the body will be
sent for interment.
The heaviest fall of snow for years
is reported throughout the Wood River
country, cutting off telephone commu-
nication, and much anxiety is felt for
miners in the interior.
George Hague formerly lived in Salt
Lake. and had only been at the mine
a few days. He was a son of James
Hague, the gunsmith, of pioneer days.
