Engineering Under tho Earth.


The newest wonder in American en-
gineering has just been inaugurated at
Haughton, Mich. viz, the Red Jacket
shaft of the Calumet and Helca-the
greatest mining shaft in the entire
world. It is 4, 900 feet deep, and, COM
pared with it, the deep silver mines OF
the Comstock lode in Nevada, or the
wonderful mines in Austria, worked
for many centuries past, are but shall
low pits. There are six mpartments,
says the New York Sun, each equal in
size to an ordinary mining shaft. four
of these being used for hosting rock
and lowering timber; one is used for
the ladderways. and the sixth and last
compartment carries the wires and
pipes for telephones, light, power,
water and compressed air. The under
ground workings of the shaft are laid
out with mathematical accuracy, the
undertaking course of the copper-bear-
ing lode allowing work to be planned
thousands Of feet ahead Of the mineral
picks. The great pumps which free
the mine of water are operated inter-
changeably by compressed all and cleo
tricity. The power drills which eat the
holes for the dynamite cartridges are
run by com pressed air alone, and there
are more than 800 Of these drills, each
doing the work Of dozen men, work
ing both night and day, in the Calumet
and Helca mine.

Revolving Seat.

A seat especially adapted for use on
open trolley cars, for the overhead seats
on buses, for benches in public parks
or private country houses, ETC., is de-
signed upon the principle of the rolling
top desk, 80 that there is always a
dry surface during the rainy or snowy
weather. AS covering for the ordi-
nary fixed rails or solid wood seat there
is an endless roll, formed of fiat strips
of wood, riveted securely to bands OF
leather, pegamoid or similar material
and presenting an even surface, the
usual width of single seat, which is
slipped around the seat board. BY
means of sunk buttons or rings laced
at suitable intervals this roll can be
readily revolved, .finging any portion
into position for seat, as may be re-
duired Thus, In the event of the seat
being exposed to the rain and rendered
unfit for use, the person desiring to sit
down has simply by means Of the fin
ger holes or rings to draw the roll
forwards, and perfectly dry portion is
brought into position, whilst the roll
is of such length that another dry por-
tion sufficient for seat is still in re-
serve, if found necessary In addition
to this as the roll is revolved in either
direction 1t it underneath the seat,
brough In contact with an india-rubber
ecraper which takes off all the heavy
moisture 10 that even the portion OF
the seat which has been exposed to the
rain is very quickly dried and again
rendered fit for use.

LOSSES ON OUR SIDE.
Two Days Fighing Before Santiago COst
Us 100 Men.

Two Days Fighing Before Santiago Cost
Us 100 Men.
Before Santiago, via Kingston, July
THE fighting during the last two
days has cost the American army 1,700
men. This estimate is made after care
fully figuring by the surgeons at the hos
pital. The list of wounded, as made
mp at division headquarters, is very
large in proportion to the list of those
killed outright. Probably less than
100 all told of the number of wounded
have died, making the number of
deaths in the neighborhood of $50.
The remainder of the wounded will
probably recover.
Considering the fact that not over
$4,000 men were engaged on our side,
and that not all OF those were actually
under fire, the percentage Of loss is
heavy. The slaughter was brought
about mainly by the gallantry with
which our troops advanced into the
open ground in the face of a heavy fire
from the Spanish Entertainments and
rif1e-pits.

Big Fire In Dunsmuir.

Sacramento, CAL, July IA special
to the Bee says: The town of Duns-
muir, in Siskiyou county. On the line
of the Oregon & California railroad,
was almost swept out of existence by
fire early this morning. The fire
started at 2 A. NJ, and owing to the
high north wind which prevailed was
soon uncomfortable. The town water
system was entirely inadequate to sup.
ply the demand. twenty-five buildings
were destroyed in the business section,
and it was only by the heroic efforts of
the townspeople that the residence
section escaped the flames. The loss
will exceed $50, 900, with but little in
suIance.
