FARMER" BURNS COMING.
The Famous Wrestler to Referee the
McLeOd-McMiIlan Match.

Farmer Burns has consented to come
here and referee the Mcleod Mcmillan
wrestling match at the Grand Opera House,
Thursday night, Sept. g. He telegraphed
Yesterday from Omaha that he would leave
there Sept. for indianapolis and ROMAN
here until after the match. Burns is one
of the most famous catch-as-catch-ca
wrest!ers in the world. He has never been
seen here, but his name is familiar to ev-
erybody interested in wrestling matters
Between him and Dan Mcleod there exists
an intense rivalry, and their meeting at
Davenport, Ia, some months ago resulted
in a victory for Burns, though Mcleod
claims to have thrown him fairly twice in
TWENTY-FIVE minutes. the referee refusing to
allow the second fall because it was off the
eigheeen-foot mat on which they were
wrestling. Burns says Mcleod secured his
only fall through the smallness of the mat,
so that their stories as to who was favored
by that condition differ very widely. The
Davenport match drew over 81 100. and was
one of the most exciting in the history of
with a neck that no hold has any eff
feet on.
Mcleod is training in Chicago and will be
here in a few days 10 put the finishing
touches on his work. Mcmillan is hard at
II every day in Turner's Hall. where his
tine physique is attracting much attention.

A NEW CHAINLESS WHEEL.
One Made at the Allen Plant In This
City shown.

A new chainless bicycle was shown on
the streets yesterday. It was at the Allen
shop, and was invented by man named
Campbell. 1t can claim novelty, at least,
as one thing in it's favor. and this is
very great thing with buyers Of bicycles.
On each side of the rear wheel, attached
loosely to the axle, are two cog wheels.
They are attached to the axle by a ratchet,
which makes the axle turn when the wheels
turn towards the front, but allows the
axles to freely revolve forward while these
cogs are on the backward motion. Attached
to each crank of the wheel are two long
rods. These rods have notcheS to tit the
gear wheels on the hub axle. One of each
one passes under the other cog wheel.
These rods are always meShed in the gear
of the cog wheels. AS crank moves
backwards it carries with it the two rods
connected with it. At the same time the
rods on the other side carried forward
that is going forward pulls on its cog,
which, by it's ratchet connection with the
action, turns the wheel forward. The under
rod of the pair that is moving backward
has the same effect on its cog, assisting to
turn the wheel towards the front. AS soon
cranks passing over center, the cOgs that
have been pulling the wheel forward slip
on their ratchet connection, and the other
paid comes into play to do the work. Thus
two cOgS are always pulling the wheel for
ward. The wheel will move forward, 1t will
readily be seen, regardless of the direction
of the movement of the cranks. The ped
ais may be worked forward or back
ward, or simply up and down. and the
wheel will move forward.

Copper From Gree. water,


One Of the most interesting sights in
the great mining town of Butte is the
process BY which copper is caught from
the emerald colored water that flows
from the Anaconda and st, lawrence
mines. It is estimated that=3hb water,
which for four or five year, went to
waste, is now bringing the anaconda
company $50, 600 o mont q cost Of
about 81, 900 month.
At the present time several acres Of
ground are covered with wooden watts.
These are filed with all the old scrap
iron they Can hold. It has proved q SPLEEN
did scheme for disposing Of the tons and
tons Of old iron the company has accu-
mulated for years. Old hosting cages,
water pipe. wheelbarrows, railroad iron
lin fact, any old thing that consists Of
tin or iron-is appropriated to this serv;
ice.
1t is said for every pound Of iron put
into vat q pound Of copper is produced.
Where the water first attacks the iron,
the copper absorbs the iron completely
within three weeks. After the ptecipi-
tation is effected the water is drawn of
and the Shiny copper is transferred to
another tank, where the water is further
drained Of. These latter watts hold
about Is tons Of the copper, which now
has the appearance Of a clayish sub.
stance. This is sacked into packages of
about 100 pounds. When in this shape.
1t is sent to the smelters in this city.
The product carries an average Of SO
per cent pure copper. The iron remain.
ing in It makes fine flux, and when
mixed with other smelling ore it is
said to bring the ore mp to q value Of
about $500 ton.
The water from the mines is the most
profitable product Of the Anaconda Cop
