Ia an Iron, Coffin.

When Jacob Guldi, one of the best
known of the German pioneer citizens,
was stricken with what an intuition
told him would be a faf1I disease,
there was one request ! which he
solemnly mode of the members of The
family, and Aet was that - the
end should havAcone they woEld Bury
him in such a wssthat his body won!a
be safe from gbou!s, might wish
to sell it to doctors for dissection. says
the Cincinnati Enquirer.
It seems that the disease to q
degree mvstiiied the doctors. and
from this grew Mr.. Guldl's suspicion
that they would wish to wrest the Sc
crct from his mortal remains. Mr..
Guild died this week, and was buried
in the German Protestant Cemetery
, on Walnut Hills. The person who
secures his holy will have to be not
| only a ghoul but O craftsman capable
of blowing the strongest safe in the
world. After debating the matter,
the family decided to place the hand
some coffin inside of an iron box.
The latter is about the size Of or
binary wooden box which is generally
lowered into the grave. The box III
which Mr.. Guldi rests weighs nearly a
ton, and it required a large force of
men to lower it into the grave, but
the remarkable part of it is the lid,
which is locked on by o system of
tumblers, just as a safe door is locked.
| When the last rites were finished the
immense iron lid was lowered into
place, the tumblers clicked AMI the
most skilful grave robbcr could not
get at the body.
There is absolutely no way to open
the iron vault, except by using some
powerful explosive, IS there is NO way
by which it could be opened from the
outside.

U'atcr Rich in Copper.

One of tho most interesting sights
in the great mining town OF Butte IS
the process by which copper is cnught
from the emerald-colorel water that
flows from the Anaconda and ST. Law
renee mines. 1t is estimated that tins
water, which for four or five years
went 10 waste, is now bringing the
Anaconda Company $50, 900 Il month";
at a cost Of about $1,000 a month.
During the last three years Thonas
Lodford had a lease on the water. tie
paid a twenty-five percent royalty 10
the company. 1t is claimed that he
realized at least 500, 900 a year from
the water. Leiford is a pretty rich
man today. Now that the company IS
operating the water on its own account
it has discovered what Il great money
making enterprise 1T !a.
At the present time several acres OF

These are filled with all the Old scrap
iron they can hold. It has proved u

tons Of old iron the company has ac-
cumuIatcd for years. Old hosting
cages, wafer pipes, wheelborrows. rail-
road iron, in fact, any old thing that
consists of tin or iron is appropriated
to this service.
It is said for every pound Of iron
put into u vat q pound OF copper is
produced. Where the water first at
tacks the iron the copper ubsorbs tho
iron completely within three weeks.
After the precipitation is effected the
water is drawn off and Tie shiny cop
per ID transferred 10 another tank,
where the water is further drained Of.
These latter watts hold about fifteen
tons OF the copper, which ROW has the
appearance Of IL claylsh substance.
This is sacked into packages Of about
100 pounds. When in this shape it is
sent to the shelters III this city. The
product carries An average Of Sc per
cent pure copper. The iron remain

mixed with other smelling ore it is
said to bring the orc up to q value
of about $500 q ton. -Anaconda (Mon-

A Colossal Criminal.

Hardened criminals who are given

None of these, however, would be

America STU ahead.

Russia is a very large country, and
with Siberia's immense area included,
the size of the United States suffers in
comparison with her. One of her
newspapers has Wanted the proposed
transporting of a whole town some
forty odd miles along q frozen river

clailns), the object of the removal
being to place the town among some
hills hal lend themselves admirably
to the purpose Of fertilization thus
securing q valuable military station.
It will undoubtedly be quite a feat to
accomplish such a task, and if the
Russian engineers find any hitch in
their plans, they can surmount the
difficulties by reference to a similar
undertaking successfully accomplished
in the State of Illinois, namely, the
moyingsNt the town Of Nauvoo over O
frozen rivesnas In the course of three
Winters this waA done, and seven hun
dred houses wssre transported, and a
new town, ndk a prosperous place,
was established. The Russian news
papers can boast CT the great work of
moving one Of their towns; but it is a
pleasure to know that the United
States long ago anticipated them in
such matters. -Harper's Round Table.
