Good Mine to Sell,

The story is told of CERTAIN mine in
the vicinity Of Joplin, Mo-, says the
Herald" where big stuff was found
and soon after worked out but the
owners managed to make a sufficient
showing to sell the mine and machln-
cry for $4,000. The new owners went
into the ground and struck up pretty
good stuff, but this also soon played
o., when the original owners bought
the mine back for 5000, and were try
ing to dispose Of it at profit when by
accident they discovered ore again in
larger quantities than ever before,
when along came some eastern people
who wanted the mine bad enough to
pay $4,000 for 1t. They got it, but ii
IS said that the mine was again cut
blind in a short time and was again
sold for an Insignificant sum to the
original owners, who, it is said, are
now reaping good dividends and look
ing for another prospective buyer.
Such Is the ups and downs of mining.

Mr.. BueI Wins His WAGER,

Charles L. Buel, the man who won
$500 on wager that he could walk
from Trevor, Wis, to the sheep audi
torium at the stock yards in IS hours,
accomplished the feat in 13 hours and
% minutes. This beats the record
made by Wisconsin Central freight
train. When he entered the yards he
was given an ovation by crowd of
1000 people who had heard of the novel
bet anu had gathered to see the win
ner on his arrival. ]. B. Mendenhall,
local agent for the Wisconsin Central,
when asked concerning Mr.. Buels
race and time, said: Il find that the
train on which Mr.. Buel's sheep came
to Chicago had an engine failure and
arrived four hours late. Our trans, ,as
a rule, make 20 miles an hour, which
is quite as good as any of the other
roads. We do not care anything about
the race, only we don't want the pub
lie to think that man can beat our
freight trains on foot. Rec

Governor Talk. State Journal.

Among the political visitors to the
city yesterday was Hon. r. M. Nevin,
one OF the Republican gubernatorial
candidates. Colonel Nevin has been a
bit disappointed by the result in Butler
county, where the delegation has been
ey. Butler county being in his con-
gressiOnal district, he had the best of
reasons for believing that the delega-
tion would be for him. 1t is under
stood that the Butler county delegates
will be in a position to do something
for George Cox when the time comes.
Said Colonel Nevin: II am a con-
stant reader of the political depart
ment of the State Journal, and desire
to pay my tribute to it's worth as an
interesting feature of the paper. / will
open my headquarters at the Neil, and
expect to stay on the ground until after
the convention. On Thursday of next
week there will be a delegation of
several hundred representative Repub-
hcans of Daytonand Montgomery coun
ty in Columbus in my behalf and they
will make things warm. l am greatly
encouraged in my candidacy, and ex-
pect to have not less than SO votes on
the first ballot. With Judge Nash
and Chairman Daugherty eliminated,
believe should be the choice of the
delegates. Montgomery county is SOL
id behind me, and we have never had
candidate ON state ticket in the his
tory of the county. During the past
20 years have done my share OF the
work to make the count reliably Re
publican and my services in nearly ev-
cry state campaign since that time has
given me an acquaintance that ought
to do me some good in my race. am
in receipt Of many letters daily from
friends indicating their intention to
vote for me-"

A last Torpedo Boat.

According to the Scientific American
the torpedo boat l1ai Lung, construct
ed by an English firm for the Chinese
government, is the fastest boat afioat.
This vessel is credited with an average
speed of 35 knots an hour and her
highest speed during her trial run was
42A miles an hour. Heretofore the
English boat Turbinia has held the
record, but she has been surpassed by
the Hal Lung. The most remarkable
feature of this boat, next to her speed,
is the fact that she is fitted with re-
ciprocating engines. AT the time the
Turbinia made her phenomenal speed
it was popularity supposed that it was
entirely due to her new form of motor
In great part no doubt 1t was, but there
is reason to believe that the excellent
steam raising qualities OF her boilers
contribute in no little degree to the re-
suit, Relatively considered the per-
formance of the Turbinia was more
meriborious, for the reason that she is
only a fOrty-ton craft, while the
Schicchau boat is of 18O tons displace-
ment, or four and One-half times laTg-
er. The new and enlarged Turbinias
will be full sized torpedo boats and for
this reason it is likely that they will
surpass the Hal Lung by a consider
able margin of speed. Just what the
excess will be is exciting much specu-
latlOn in naval quarters.-Derrlck.

The design for the new court house

One Of our pnOminent architects up

plans for such a "cheesy" looking
structure. There is nothing up TO date

A curious invention for the protec-
tlon of bank checks has recently been
patented. 1t consists of number OF
disks, so that any combination of
numbers may be formed. The charac-
ters are heated to branding tempera-
ture by means of electricity, and, on
being pressed to the surface OF check
or similar paper, the amount named
thereon is burned by a process which
defles the usual methods resorted to
by check raisers. Devices are provid-
cd so that the work can be done quick
ly.-Sclentfic American.
