much similar to football. very much
more exciting and is calculated to draw
crowds wherever announcement is
lade that there will be Il game. In
Baltimore as many as $4,000 PEOPLE have
witnessed a game at one dlme. If sue
cessful a house will be built With gale
res ITO hold THE visitors. An artificial
lake Will be made and the lake will be
frozen each might by the same process
that ice is manufactured by. 1t will af-
ford good skating all the time. Then
where Will be no occasion to wait for
d>ld weather to freeze the ice The
movement is n most excellent cre and
is calculated TO make thc park tall pa
tronized. The company Is determined
to give Ghe people of Portsmouth las
much pleasure as they can, and at the
same time help the road. If hockey is
cnce started 1t will become a greater

Outside OF purchases by the Carnegie
Steel company and the Illinois steel
company, and the picking up OF lots OF
low-phosphorus ores by certain other
buyers, also, there has been no orc-buy-
ing movement az yet. The Carnegie
Steel company's purchases, it is under
stood, do not represent its needs in old
range ores, but include ores which are
required for the immediate future to
preserve the uniformity OF mixtures.
Norrie, Minnesota and Chandler ores
were taken, the aggregate being several
hundred thousand tons. The Illinois
Steel company's purchases outside OF
the Mesabi ores recently referred to,
were confined 60 the Marquette and
Menominee ranges, the expectation being
that the ores viii 60 by way Of Escana-
ba. Some non-Bessemer ores have been
sold, also, for eastern shipment. Fur
naccmen in general, however, are not yet
in position 90 seriously take up their
needs for 1897. 1t would seem, with the
