THE WAR WITH SPAIN
1T WAS A COLLEGE WAR AS BOB
BuRDETTE SAW 1T.

And Being Modern Warfare the Battles
Were Mainly Fought With the Mouth.
Awful Havoc of the College Yells-The
Death of Colonel Mary Yellin Lease.
Suddenly the cloud burst Spain and
the United States were at war, almost
without knowing how or why and with
out the formality Of declaration of hos
tilities. The telegram that flashed under
the translucent waves Of the restless sea
brought to our shores the clash of this ter
rible pea green announcements:
"Hostilities begun at Cadiz. The stu
dents are parading the streets shouting,
Down with the Yankees!' The police are
powerless to stop the procession"
Instantly the president, without wait
ing to bring the cabinet together, issued
call to arms, and before the worshiping
relic hunter had time to secure the type
writer with which it had been written
thousands of patriotic young Americans
responded to the appeal. 1t was impossi-
Bile to drill the regular army to the modern
system of warfare on such short notice,
but thanks to the widespread interest in
interacadelnic athletics, fostered by our
wisest educators the colleges were ready
for such maneuvers as were new and
strange to the old school of fighting men.
From every college in the republic came
the battlecry:
"Swear us in! Every last gasp of our
lungs belongs to our oountry Our facul-
ties lives, our fathers fortunes and our
sacred yells are hers!'
"We arc saved!' exclaimed the presi-
dent, and putting cotton in his ears he
went out with the secretary of war, armed
only with megaphone, to listen to the
warcries of the fighting patriots. Ear
long the clash Of resounding arms came in
one wild tumult to their close armored
ears Down Pennsylvania avenue, scarce
1000 miles away from the doomed hosts of
Cadiz university, came the dauntless preps
of the intermediate School of Technical
Phonation, volleying forth their death
dealing yells:

treasurer OF the Mansfield. OF which Mr..
Crrpin is president. Mr.. Penwell, n large

Looks Decidedly Blue.

President Jones, of the Antoine Ore
company, returned last Sunday morn
ing from Chicago. He states that the
outlook for busy year on the Michigan
iron ranges was exceedingly discourag-
ing, but was OF the opinion that Iron
Mountain would suffer less than any OF
the upper peninsula towns owing to the
fact that our low phosphorus ores were
desirable for mixture with those OF the
Mesabi range. Mr.. Jones says there is
nearly sufficient ore in dock Mt Lake Erie
ports and in stockpile at the mines to
supply the estimated consumption for
1897. With prices at which ore is now
selling at Cleveland, lie cannot see how
the nun-bessemer mines can continue in
operation. The estimated consumption
for the year is o 100000 tons. There is
now on dock ut Lake Erie ports 5,000,-
600 tons, with 1000, 900 tons in stock
at the mines. Add to this the reported
output OF the Carnegie Rockefeller Me-
sabi mines, 5 900, 900 tons, and we have
a total OF 100000 tons, 100000
tons more than the estimated consump-
ton. II the figures quoted are correct,
every mine in Michigan could close down
Tor year and we would still have n SUR
plus OF ore. Surely this is u blue out
look for the new year.-Iroh Mountain
