Who has not heard tho question. "wbat
becomes Of pinsr Millions Of them arc
mndo In year, millions are sold, and yet
tho supply no more than keeps pace with
the demand, which seems growing enor-
mously all tho time. By computation
mado In London ten years ago 10 was
shown that at that time tho weekly pro-
duction Of pins In Great Britain was $780,
600, 900, OF which IS0, 900, 900, or consider
ably more than half, were made In Bir-
miDgbam. Then 100, 900, 900 were made
In France and l20,000,000 In Germany.
Holland and Belgium. Since that time
the production Of pins has increased large
ly. The biggest pin manufacturing city
In the world IL Birmingham, where 81
600, 900 pins on the average are manufao-
tured every working day. The other pin
factories In England together turn out
about 100000 pins daily. Tho daily
output OF pins In France exceeds 20, 900, :
900, and Germany and other countries In
Europe manufacture about 10000, 900
more daily, tho total production of pins
being 5000, 900 every day, or 602, 900, 900
week In Europe. This Is, OF course, cx-
elusive OF tho pin factories In the United
States, which number as, having a capi-
tai OF $4,000, 900. giving employment to
1000 persons and turning out I'm u year
pins to the value Of about 81 900, 900. 1t
Is calculated that only per cent Of the
pins manufactured arc worn out or bro
ken. The other 90 per cent are lost, but
what becomes OF them, where they go and
who gets them, or why some of them are
not afterward discovered and again put tn
use, are mysteries. At tho rate at which

The metal is cast into ingots, which are
rolled into sheets after having been an
nealed several times. Afterward the
sheets are cut into strips 30 fine as to re-
semble wire, and then by machinery the
wires are cut and afterward the pins are
pointed and headed. After the completion

Get Strength, vigor, Clesr Complexion and
Good Digestion, Not by Patent Medicine,
But in Natures Own Way.
Any honest physician will tell you that
there is but one way to get increased flesh
all the patent medicines and cod liver oils
to the contrary Notwithstanding.
Nature has but one way to increase flesh,
strength and vigor of mind and body, and
that Is through the stomach by wholesome
food well digested. There is no reason or
common sense In any other method what
ever.
People are thin, run down, nervous, pa 10
and shaky In their nerves, simply becanse
their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dyspepsia,
but the fact remains that they do not eat
enough food or what they eat is not quickly
and properly digested as Il should be.
DIR. Harlandson says the reason is because
kbc stomach lacks certain digestive acids
and peptones, and deficient secretion of
gastric juice.
Natures remedy I'm such cases is to sup
ply what the weak stomach lacks. There
are several good preparations which will do
pepsia Tablets, which are designed es-
.pecially for all stomach troubles, and
which cure all digestive weakness on the
common sense plan OF fusnishing the d.
gestive principles which the stomach lacks.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets give perfect
digestion. First effect IN to Increase the
appetite and increased vigor, added flesh,
pure blood, and strength OF nerve and
muscle is the perfectly natural result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
tonic known and will cure any form Of
stomach trouble except cancer OF the stom-
sch. May be found at druggists at 30 cents

Where Princeton Got Her Skyrocket Cheer.
On all public occasions student enthu-
siasm finds expression In the well known
Princeton cheer, the "skyrocket," as 1t
has been called. Undergraduates of today
may think 1t has come down from time
whereof the memory of man runneth not
to the contrary" But this would DO an
error. All college cheers arc of modern
date Princeton's Is among the oldest.
Nevertheless, 36 years ago 1t was unknown.
Where did 1t come fromp Who invented
its These arc momentous questions and
are answered differently by different men.
A member of the class of go declares
that the late DIR. Woolsey johnson Of New
York Of that class first sounded the
"hooray, hooray, hooray, tiger, siss boom
ah Princeton" In one Of Professor
Sohepck's recitations. But Chancellor
Alexander Il. McGill Of the class Of 81
says he remembers quite distinctly when
the Seventh regiment Of New York went
to the war and how nearly the whole COL
lege went down through tho Potter woods
to the old depot by the canal at midnight
to greet 1t as it passed through. The
cheers Of tho boys were responded to by
the Seventh with the "skyrockets, " which
80 impressed tho youthful mind that 10
was INDUCED In at first as borrowed prop
erty, and later, as timo advanced, was
adopted as tho college cheer.-James w.

He was elected to the legislature, and
there drafted plan of new judicial
system, which got rid of Judge Tur-
ner, and sent him to the wilderness.
Things moved quickly in California
In those days. Mr.. Field arrived in
California in December, 1849. He was
elected to the legislature in 1851. In
two years Mr.. Field had been an un-
known emigrant, mayor of a town, jus
tice of the peace and member of the
legislature. In two years he had been
penniless, rich and penniless again. -,
Mr.. Field returned to the practice Of
law, and in those days the law was
a. hazardous calling. One day Judge
Field, who was defending a placer
claim which had been jumped, discov-
cred that steps had been taken to cor
rupt the jury. The section was law
less, and usually might was right. The
trial was held in q crowded saloon.
The Cook County herald. [volume] (Grand Marais, Minn.) 1893-1909, 1897-10-30


Field was the fifth member to be en-
rolled. Arms were bought; companies
organized. Meetings on behalf of the
Union were held in the theaters and
the fires of patriotism burned brightly
at the Golden Gate. Couriers overland
carried the news to President Lincoln
and he was finally advised to super-
sede General Johnston. This he did
by sending General Sumner secretly to
relieve him Of the command. General
Sumner took command. The arms at
Benicia were safe, and. California ra-
mained a loyal state.

ion ne was made a, United States SUI

suffering country, the massacre at Scio
and the bravery of Marco Bozzaris had
fired the American heart. With: Mis-
sionary Brewer and his wife went
young Stephen J. Field. They. remain
ed abroad three years. During that
time he went through the cholera cpl
demic and also the plague. During
these epidemics he helped his brother
in-law nurse the sick. Tens of thou
sands OF persons died from the two dis
eases, but young Field and his rela-
tiEes escaped.
Stephen J.. Field returned in 1898,
and went to Williams college, gradu-
ating i'm 1887 Them he entered the
law office of David Dudley Field, in
this city, and became partner in
the law firm. Young Field decided to-
go to California in 1349. The discovery
Of gold there had given rise to a pop
ular excitement far greater than the
Klondike sensation of to-day. His out
fit was bought for him by his brother
Cyrus, who added $40 worth of cha
mois skins, which, he said, would be
useful to make bags for holding gold
dust. He also had sixty-four copies of
New York newspapers. He landed with
81 in his pocket. He sold his chamois
Skins for $3.50 worth of gold dust, and
an acquaintance sold his sixty-four
New York papers for 81 each, and gave
him half the proceeds.
Mr. Field remained but a short time
in San Francisco, and then went fur
ther inland, stopping at the town" of
Yubaville. Yubaville was undergoing
a transformation. The land was in
control of two French capitalists, who
were pleased with young Fields ability
to speak French Three days after
his arrival Yubaville ceased to exist,
Marysville was organized, and he was
elected mayor. He was also made a
justice of the peace, and the mainte-
nance of law and order was in his
hands
Lynch law was unknown in Marys-
vile so long as Mr.. Field was mayor.
He dispensed justice speedily and fear
lessly, and several times ordered Of
tenders to be publicly fogged He was
finally succeeded by an officer under
the state government, and by that time
had amassed large sum of money, and
had made a number of enemies.
One Of these enemies was W. R..
Turner, who had been appointed Judge
of the district. Judge Turner decided
to drive Mr.. Field from the country.
He forbade him to practice in his
court, threatening to shoot him if he
entered the court room, and. had him
dragged from court by a sheriff and
posse. Thus prevented from practicing
law, Mr.. Field embarked in legislation.

A Keen Purchaser.

The younger portion of the presen,
generation may not remember the old
fashioned silver coin, once so plenty

twelve and half cents. In New Eng
land it was called a "ninepence." in
New York "shilling," and it bore
other names in other sections of the
country.
One day a tall, lank, tow-headed
specimen of humanity, from the Mote
Mountain district, entered Sam Thom's
store in Conway, N. H. He looked
around for while upon the tempting
things displayed, and finally drew from
his pocket battered ninepence, which
he clutched with an evident deter
mination not to part with it reckless

The last of many times this remarka-
BILE, lion-hearted man faced death
without flinching was in 1889, when
an attempt was made on his life
by Judge David S. Terry and his wife
Judge Terry was counsel for Sarah
Althea Hill, who claimed to be the
wife of Senator Sharon, and sought
TO- establish a claim to his millions
by means of a divorce. Field and Ter
ryshad known each other in the West.
During the divorce proceedings the
Hill woman had married Judge Terry
The case was carried up, and finally
came before Justice Field. He deliv-
cred a decision adverse to Mrs. Hill,
and Judge Terry arose in court and de-
nounced the Judge. He attempted tc
assault him, as did also his wife, but
they were oyerpowered and disarmed
The Judge had a dirk and his wife q
revolver. He sentenced Terry to three
months in Jail and Mrs. Hill to one
month.
When he came out of Jail Judge Ter.
ry 3again threatened to take the life
Of Justice Field. When Justice Field
visited California Deputy Marshal Ma.
gle was ordered to travel with the
judge and protect him. At the waiting
station at Lathrop Judge Terry as
saulted Justice Field, and Nagle shot
him dead. Terry's wife then rushed
in with pistol, and had to be dis
armed.

At this point there was an ominous
movement in the crowd, and "Click!

During litigation over a contested

"The power of the ballot says Mr..
W. &. B. Du Bois, himself a negro, and
recent Harvard graduate, 1--WE need
in sheer defense and as guarantee o1
good faith. We may misuse it, but we
can scarce do worse in this respect
than our whilom masters. Freedom
too, the long sought, we still seek-the
freedom of life and limb, the freedom
to work and think. Work, culture anC
liberty-all these we need, not singly,
but together; for to-day these ideals
among the negro people are gradually
coalescing and finding a higher mean
ing in the unifying ideal Of race-the
ideal of fostering the traits and tai
ents of the negro, not in opposition TO:
but in conformity with the greater
ideals of the American republic, in or
der that some day on American soil
two world races may give each to each
those characteristics which both sc
sadly lack. Already we come not al
together empty-handed; there is to-
day no true American music but the
sweet, wild melodies of the negro
slave; the American fairy tales are In
dian and African; we are the sole oasis
of simple faith and reverence in a dus-
ty desert of dollars and smartness
Will America be poorer if she replace
her brutal, dyspeptic laundering with
the light-hearted but determined ne
gro humility; or her coarse, cruel wit
with loving, jovial good humor; or her
Annie Rooney with Steal AWay?'
Simply a stern concrete test of the
underlying principles of the great re-
public is the negro problem, and the
spiritual striving of the freedmens
sons is the travail of souls whose bur-
den is almost beyond the measure of
their strength, but who bear it in the
name of an historic race, in the name
of this the land of their fathers IA
theirs, and in the name of human op-
portunity."
