A Gala Event.
The Bal Last Evening Very Much En-
ioyed by All.


By far the largest crowd that has
assembled at any dance this season
was present last evening at the Vail
hall, the occasion being the ball in
augurated by Diamond Rebekah
Lodge 20. 153. The hall was filled
to the doors and we doubt much
whether a few more couples could
have squeezed in.
At o'clock when the grand march
was called on, fully sixty couples were
on the floor and such were the condit-
ions thai confronted the lovers of
tefpsichorean gaities until the orch
estra played the last waltz. Dancing
WAS almost out of the question as it
was all human life was worth to at
tempt to get on the floor. Everyone
seemed to be having real nice time
however, and all left well pleased at
about 3 a. m.
At II o'clock. the ladies served a
lunch which went real we'll The
music was furnished by Carlisle's
Orchestra and was excellent. W. B.
Goidsworthy did the prompting and
Tom and "Dick" Polkinghorn, Sam
Rapson, T. E. Miller and w. J, Cowl-
ing die the floor managing.
The event, socially and financially
was d grand success. About $50 were
Melted by the Rebekahs which will
come in very handy in securing lodge
supplies and paraphernalia for this
constantly increasing order.

HIGHER PRICE
ef .rsR Orc Not Mach OF an Involvement
to kincs Now Idle, Says thu Iron
Trade Review.


The meeting on last Saturday of
Bessemer ore producers Of all Lake
Superior ranges except the Mesaba
has put the ore situation in definite
shape for 1898. The advance in price
is practically that indicated hereto
fore. The suppositious ore taken as
lie basis OF calculations, containing
s3 per cent of iron, .o45 per cent phos-
pllorus and 10 per cent natural moist
ire, will sell 1T g.. rs ton. instead of
the $500 of last year. This conserva
tive advance is not likely TO tempt
many idle properties TO become active
being but trifle more than the In
crease in labor cost already made.
The method of computing the prices
OF the A or 80 old range ores, relative
10 the base ore. is precisely the same
IS that employed last year, the phos-
pherus table, which, on its first ap-
pearance in 1897. was counted tri-
smph of mathematics as applied to the
accurate measurement of mixture
vases. being retained in its original
forui. Each ore takes the place TO
which il is entitled. by the average
analysis of 1897, or such as the pro-
Queer will guarantee for 1898. 1t Is
not TO be inferred that there is hor-
iZontal advance OF Is cents from the
1897 price. or even an average advance
OF Is cents. Ores run higher or lower
in phosphorus or iron in one year,
than in the preceding, as the deposit
improves or deteriorates. 1t happens
thus that one ore on the 1898 list is 2
cents a ton lower than in 1897. In
another case where the average OF
1887 analyses shows a considerable
Improvement. there is an advance OF
Il cents. The price schedule Is thus
al accurate index of the relative val
lies of the different ores as they will
come upon the market in 1898. The
estimated output for the year is a
tritie over 5000, 900 tons OF old range
Bessemers. Or such as will enter
Bessemer mixtures--thc old phos-
pi1orus limit of .o7 being retained.
Several ores are included in the sched-
lle for 1893 that were not there in
IS37-tile Rex grade Of the Chapin's
product, and the Old Mine Hematite.
for example. The total Of such ores
is 500. 600 to TOO, 900 tons. Putting
Eesabi ores at last years output,
shout. Zoo. 900 tons, and making an
allowance for scale mill cinder, ETC.,
IS estimated that the material going
into furnaces running on Lake Super
ier Bessemer ores is now equivalent
TO II, 900, 900 tons of ore per year. How
much beyond the 1897 total of 12,5oo,-
600 tons the figures for 1898 will go. is
nov only matter OF conjecture. 1t
Will be understood, from what is said
above. that the Mesabi range is to
take the course Of last year. Already
something like 900, 900 tons Of Min
nesota Iron Co. Mesabi ores have been
bought by the Illinois Steel Co. 1t is
believed the prices in this deal, while
not absolutely fixed as yet, viii give
the Chicago interest Mesabi ores at
practically the same cost as the lead

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26-Special- The
annual report OF the Secretary OF the
Interior embraces some statistics with
reference TO pensions. which afford food
for thought. I refer especially to the fig
uges and what they Indicate. The total
number on roll July J. lssS, was $685. IA,
an increase OF 1919 over the preceding
year. This was greater gain than there
had been I'm tho entire i've years preced-
iaG From 1893 % ls3I, inclusive, the IN
crease was 1902.
DISBURSEMENTS
The Disbursements 20 army pensioners
for 1898 were sll0.92I34S.1L This was

The Increase IN payments TO naval PEN
s.0neca has been more gradual since the
jump forward OF nearly million in 1882.
The increase for 1895 was {sl.7-s.3S. bring
ing the tocal modest sum OF S5,72a5.l09
for the year.
PENSIONERS INCREASE.
The increase I'm the number OF pension
ers from 1855 to 1885 has been s2i0l. There
Is or has been a popular deuslon which
was shared ia by one OF our lamented
Presidents. that the lapse Of time would
reduce the pension list THIS belief was
evidently based on calculations made
from vital statistics, such, perhaps, as
those with which Insurance authorities
have 10 deal. There is a growing susp!-
ciOn. however that the soldiers who went
South during the war between the states
discovered the Fountain Of Youth, long
sought by Ponce de Leon and that they
imhibed freely Of rs waters. That this or
some other method OF securing longevity
was resOrted TO is easily demonstrated
bv the statistics OF the Pension Bureau.
The number OF pensioners has more
than doubled since 1883. and the ratio OF
increase is rapidly going up grade.
IN PERPETUIJY.
The country might as well make up
its mind that the pcnsl0neg IS 10 be with
w IN increasing numbers forever. Even
the younger generation, however, may
comfort itself with the thought that
