The Taylor Iron Works ut High
bridge have been working at full force
and have been employing as many men
as possible for the last twelve weeks.
They are making twelve, fourteen and
sixteen inch shells for the Government.
The shells are to be used for the long
range mortars on the seaboard de-
fences. They are made of steel, and
are about six feet in length and weigh
250 pounds The average number
turned out is about 100 day. As soon
as they are completed they are sent to
the Government arsenal at Dover,
where they are loaded with n new and
high explosive resembling. gun cotton.
The workmen are forbidden to talk,
and the high board fences around the
works are guarded night and day.

That we live in an age of wonder is
proved by the bare statement of figures
with regard to the immigration from
Europe to this country during the
present century. Statistics previous
to 1920 were not kept, but it is estimat-
ed that between 1899 and the last
named year the immigration from
Europe to the United States did not
exceed 100000.
In 1920 the Government began sys-
tematic collection of data with regard
to immigration, and from that time to
the close Of 1896, Il, 554 500 people came
from Europe aud were welcomed on
our shores. These figures do not in
clude the immigration to British
America, to Mexico, Central or South
America. but solely to the United
States.
The smallest number of immigrants
during recent years was Ia, $50 in 1879.
the largest 623, 0s4 in 1892, in 1876 the
immigration was Bah, 967. No such
movement of population has ever been
known in history The migration OF
the German nations over the territory
of the Roman empire did not comprise
more than 4, 900, 600 of people and Gov
cred 400 years; the exodus of the Jews
from Egypt was with COG, 900 able bod.
ed men, or counting five to each fami-
ly, about 1900, 900 of people. Com.
pared with exodus from Europe the
depopulation of Goshen was trife.

Mrs. Alice Blankepship, wife Of Henry

afternoon. by shooting herself through
the heart with thirty-two pistol. She
lived only few minutes.
A reporter OF the NRws visited the

facts:

ON Rich Mountain east OF town.. were
married 4 years ago, but have not lived
happily together. frequent iars and
quarrela interuptiug ths fllcity Of their
marriedliyes. On last Thursday night
they had quarrell over O lettss found
in Blankenship'a pocket. said to have
been written to another woman. This
quarrel, like Others OF similar nature,
seems to have been made up between
them, and everything was moving on
as usual. On Friday Mrs.. Blankenship
picked bucket Of Strawberries, and was
capping them, when Blankt nship p's.moth.
er. with whom Henry and HIS wife lived
made some remark, which led to q
quarrel, and harsh language wss used
between them. About that time Black.
enship came In, and took hand IN the
quarrel. He scolded his wife severely,
taking the side Of his mother, aud against
his wife. Blautenship left tho house,
saying no was going to leave--going to
Bluefield and iptimated that he wss not
coming back. His wife followed him and
begged him to stny, telling him that u
he went would never SEQ her again alive,
1t is said that hs cursed her. aud used
very bad language to her. =
Shortly after this she went iuto the
house. sat down on the side OF her bed,
took revolver from her busom where
she had 1t concealed, aud putting The
mnzzle against Der ,efs breast pulled the
trigger and sent bullet through her.

facts.
From her actions on several different
occasions her acquaintances believe
that she was not in her right mind.
She made two successiulattempts pre-
viously, to take her life-.onca by poison
ing, aud once by cutting her throat.
She told number of her people that she
intended to kill her self, and this act
seems to have calmly and coo,ly premed-
itated. The burial took place on Sun
day morning, In the old cemetery. She
was 80 years old. and had no children.

on Santiago de Cuba, juno 9.-within
twenty-four hours after the arrival of the
main body of American troops, the city of
Santiago and Admiral Cervera's feet will
fall into the hands of Americans.
Admiral Sampson has accomplished all
the destruction possible until the invading
army is ready to attack the city. A COM
bined attack by land and sea will then be
made.
The smokestack and masts of the Merri
mac are plainly visible from the sea. II
there was no war and no blockade. naval
men say it is doubtful if Cervera's cruisers
could be steered past the Merrimac. The
wreck of the collier mustbe blown up by
dynamite, but that would be no ordinary
task, owing to the wreck.

{ Cubans and Americans
Charge Together.

Cape Hatien, Jnne 9.-American
troops are fighting battles with Span
ards under General Liuares on the
hills to the west and northward of San
tiago Bay. The object of the invaders
is to gain heights of the Mestra Hills,
and particularly LORNA San Pablo,
which commands Santiago City. They
have already gained many points of
vantage, aud the American artillery is
shelling t g enemy.
Sampson again bat cred the inner
forts of Santiago harbor. The lombard
ment of Monday left the MORO and So
eapa no longer in the fight.
In the midst of the conflict and under
cover of the smoke two boats from the
American squadron picked up the shore
end of the cable near Caimanera.
The Spanards are convinced that the
bombardment was for the purpose of
making it possible to dis"mbark Ameri-
can troops. Some large steamers on
the horizon are supposed to be trans
>ports. If they do land soldiers at Calm
anera there will be a desperate battle as
the Spania. DIS have large force at
Gauntanmo and are resslved to make u
stand, and if necessary fire the town
of Caimanera and die fighting their as
stilants amid the flames.
AT Santiago they have been fighting
all day yesterday. The American troops
were disembarked at the old wharf
belonging to the Manganese Mining
Company.
The Spaniards had little observation

-Cubans charged up the hill from the
land side, while the Americans, who
had some distance futher to go charged
straight up the slope from the coast.
In 90 minutes tha rebels had gained a
pile of rocks from which they could
shoot down into the fort. The ppan-
iards had wasted great deal of ammu

Withstand the Cubans when they

flag was hoisted over one end of the
