Chapter Of Accidents.

SATURDAY dIJeTuOOD while 'DlCK'
Polkinghorn was at the Chandler To-
cation with o. G. Korb's greys, pre-
pared to take load Of people to the
funeral, the horses became restless and
started away. "Dick" was on the
ground and hung to the lines. One
OF the horses seing him close at it's
heels, kicked with both feet and hit
teamster just below the short
ribs. Mr.. Polkinghorn is now on a
fair road to recovery, but at first it
was thought he had been internally
injured. This is the second injury
he has met with this summer.
What came very nearly proving a
canoeing trip over the river Styx for
Walter e. Pike, took place at Burnt
side Saturday night during the
storm that was raging. Walt. was
expecting a friend from Duluth and
had gone to the portage from Patti
sons island early in the evening to
see If he had arrived. At about one
O'Clock in the night he again started
for the portage. When about half
way over. in the storm the canoe in
some unaccOuntable manner was cap
sized and Pike precipitated into the
dark and foaming waters of Burnside
He came up directly under the canoe
and raising himself up by means of
the cross-bar he managed to get a
little air after which turned the
canoe over and mounting the same,
allowed it to drift. He soon drifted
ashore and after unloading the water
made his way to the camp. Walt
says that when he came up under the
canoe he remarked, "well, this is a
HI Of fix, and we believe him.
Monday evening while Richard
Bateson was driving in from Winton
with the mill team, the horses became
frightened and bolted into the woods
just the other side of the Zenith mine.
The rig only went short distance
into the brush when it turned bottom
up, splitting the load among the rocks
and stumps. On the rig were Mr..
Bateson, Mrs. f. L. Cowen, Miss
Shook, James Simpson and a boy.
When the horses began their, pranc-
ing, Mr.. Simpson jumped from the
wagon and rushed to the horses head
to hold them, but before he could get
there the damage had been done.
Mrs. Cowen and Miss Shook escaped
with a few slight bruises but "Dick"
Jared worse being laid up with very
lame back and hip.
Geo. w. Golf, the popular agent of
the Washington Life company. is laid
up at the Exchange with a sprained
wrist and several severe bruises. Geo.
was bound for the mill Monday morn
ing on his bicycle and while going
down the hill at the upper end of
town, the irons under his saddle
snapped in two and he was thrown
with the above disastrous results.
He is also in addition to the sprain
and bruises, shy few square inches
of hide and while he is incapacitated
from work. he nevertheless is as jolly
as ever and is thankful it was not
worse.

MORE: sales
100000 Tons Sold in Three
WeekS.--Much Not to be
Shipped.

{ The iron ore sales OF the past three
weeks, aggregating probably 100000
tons, are not the enormous totals"
indicated in the commercial reviews,
but as they have taken up nearly all
the Old-range BeSSemerS available,
the probability of a slight advance on
,ch of these ores as remain is discus
sed. Fully 100000 tons OF the allot-
ted 5,ooo,ooo will not come down.
Some of the Gogebic mines never
started up because the prices fixed
meant operation at loss. There is
no expectation of an increased allOt-
ment. the experience Of 1895, when
100000 tons and upward was added
late in the season, having proved I'M
pleasant to the ore men as we'll as to
the buyers, who found later that the
extra ore was not needed. The larg-
est firms in the Pittsburg district
were among the late buyers, fact
which, taken in connection with
Others, is an indication that the fur
mace practice of 1897 has tended rather
to smaller than a larger percentage
of Mesaba ores than in 1896. The
percentage now generally employed
does not go much if any above DO per
cent.
Next to the volume of business in
iron and steel, which has kept up well
through August the confidence with
which buyers make contracts, in con-
trast with the cautious, limited trad
ing of the first half of the year, is an
encouraging feature of the situation.
1t is the seller who draws the line on
far future deliveries, since it is gen.
orally conceded that his is the risk of
any long extension of today's prices.
The advance to fuller employment of
rolling mills and steel works is doubt
less as rapid as should be expected.
Tits necessary to- remember in the
midst of the sensational advances In
wheat, that the iron trade is ordinar-
lily from six months to a year reaping
the benefits of bountiful crops and
good prices for them. The reports of
car shortage are heard considerably
earlier than usual this year, however
and Western Car works are quite busy
while the Chicago district reports
further contracts pending. Bar mills
from Pittsburg west are quite well
booked today and some of them will
not need to hunt for business before
the end Of the year. Bessemer steel
plants in Pittsburg and Chicago and
the intermediate territory will like
wise be well employed through the
year, leaving out Of the account
prompt business that will come up in
the fall months. Added to the crowd
ed condition of the rail mills, is the
accumulation Of two months of heavy
selling in billets, sheet and tin plate

No Strike at Ishpeming.

An Ishpeming special of August
20 says that as result of the secret
ballot taken during the past week,
the Miners union voted overwhelm-
ingly to remain at work. Less than
Zoo votes in favor of striking were
polled out of 1000 members. The
last strike in these mines resulted In
seven weeks semi-starvation and
then a return to work at the com
pany's terms. n

Minneapolis Carnival.

The most ambitious project the city
of Minneapolis has probably ever I'M
dertaken promises to be completely
executed during the week of Sept. 6
there, wheu a gorgeous procession will
appear on the public streets each
evening showing every possible at
tractive phase of this progressive age,
An immense public fnnd has been
raised for this purpose by its citizens.
The entertainment presented will be
simply stupendous and one hitherto
thought impossible in this section of
the country. Beautiful horses, ele-
CANT trappings, magnificent costumes,
historical accurate and exactly as at
the present day in vogue; and costing
equally as much as the splendid i'm
perial originals, and all paraphernalia
of royalty and splendor will be shown.
The citizens of Minneapolis are aim
ing to make that occasion as grand a
spectacular as has ever been attempt
ed in this country.
