VAST EXPENDITURES BY THE MIL
WAUKEE

The success and efficiency Of concern
is measured by the constant improve
ments made upon it. The manufacturing
plant or the railroad line upon which the
maximum Improvement expenditure is
made each year is usually found in the
lead, An important example of this is
the Milwaukee road which, during the
past year. has expended millions upon
it's already magnificent roadbed It's
main line between st. Paul, Minneapolis,
Milwaukee and Chicago (the route Of the
celebrated Pioneer Limited train) Is to-
day not eaualled in point of solidity and
security by any four hundred miles Of
track upon the continent. This particu-
lar portion of the road is frequently re-
fefred to as 1.-The Milwaukee boulevard"
from the beauty of the roadway and
attractive station grounds.

The Parrot Shaft Is Being

COPPER STOCK LIFELESS
The Gold Production of the World
Speculation as to the Future
Of Copper.

The miners of the Parrot yesterday
We're notified that their services would
not be required for some weeks, owing to
the fact that preparat tions had been made
for retimbering the shaft and that work
to that end would begin today. They
We're also given to understand that when
operations would be resumed the shaft
would be developed an additional 600
feet.
The work of retimbering the shaft will
probably consume six weeks or more, and
the mine will be closed down far that
period. Just what effect this will have on
operations at the smelters cannot be
learned, but it is said there is ore enough
on hand to keep the plant running for
some time.

THE COPPER SITUATION.

Boston Herald: Lake copper is $50
1SAc., and if producers are firm. they can
probably get that price for the summer
sale. If any large producer is willing to
shade those figures, shading will be apt
to be common, Good judgment holds that
1sc. copper will hardly last beyond the
fall months. A recent tabulation Of sales
of copper from 1899 for nearly 10 years
shows an average price of little rising
lie pound.
The period covered sales at 17c and
sales at 10c. a little less. and fur
nishes fair average to judge by, a
much fairer criterion than the present
eNceptionable price of 1Sc. or more. 1t is
improbable that 1Sc. copper can last
long, perhaps while the boom is on in
the metal industry in general Rooms in
the industries are as certain to be over
done as bOomS in securities. The la tier
booms usually go before the fornfer. The
boom in securities has had it's day, al
beit some men would have it believed
that speculation in securities should not
only discount commercial prosperity. but
should justify it by continuing as long
as commercial prosperity lasts There is
manifest endcavor to apply this theory
in the present stock market but the re-
suit suggests that the manipulators of
prices are contendinS against odds and
wrestling with condition rather than a
theory. 1t is certain that the stock
market has been given over to traders.
1t is of more than passing interest
that Mr. Leonard I.ewissohn sailed for
Europe today. The London copper mar
ket has been going against American
copper plans. Mr.. Lewissotn is power
In the London metal market Mr.. Lewis

colored and swollen. He claimed that on
Saturday evening he had encountered
Levitre at The Maine" roa dhouse, two

Is the manager of the place and Nigeant
claims an interest of some kind in it..
This allegation led to quarrel between
the two men. and Levitre, with a remem-
brance of The Maine" in his mind, made
a rough house out of things in general
and Vigeant i'll particular. He is the
man who last year shot and killed a

Freshet at White Bird.

The town of White Bird narrow
ly escaped total destruction by high
water Saturday, the recent heavy
rains having started the snow at
the head of the creek and bringing
down volume of water greater
than ever before known. The
creek cut for itself a new channel
through the business part of the
town, and for awhile it looked as
though every building would be
washed away. The entire settle
ment, however, turned out with
good will and after many hours of
hard work succeeded in turning
the creek back to its old channel.
The bridge crossing on this side
is in dangerous condition, resting
on only four feet of gravel, and is
not safe for teams. The present
spell of cool weather has checked
the flow of water and all danger is
now over.

Production Of Asbestos.

Asbestos is physical paradox,
yet one of natures most marvellous
productions. It has been called
q neurological vegetable; it is
both fibrous'and crystalline, elastic,
yet brittle; q floating stone, which
can be readily carded, spun, and
woven into tissue. In Germany it
is known as steinflachs (stone flax
and the miners of Quebec give it
quite as expressive name--pierre
cotton Cotton stone). The asbestos
mines of Quebec are the most
famous in the world, yielding 50
per cent of the entire output, Italy
being the only competing country,
and there the industry is declining.
Although Charlemagne is said to
have had tablecloth of asbestos,
which he cleansed by throwing into
the fire, it was practically unknown
until 1850. The Italian mineral
was then experimental with, and
some years later put on the market.
In 1873 the first Canadian mine
wac opened, aud the product stead
lily increased until 1890, when 8, $50
tons, worth 81, 260, 600 were mined.
There has since been a decline in
value, the amount for 1896 being
49, 200 tons worth only $3.50, 600.
Asbestos is flexible, nOn-cOmbusti-
BILE and a non-conductor OF heat
and electricity, and on these prop
critics it's increasing use depends.
1t is spun into yarn, from which
cloth is woven for drop curtains in
theaters, clothing for firemen, acid
workers, etc. 1t is made into
lampwicks and gloves for stokers
and ropes for fire escapes. 1t is
felted into millboard, to be used as
an insulator in dynamos and as a
ireproof lining for floors. 1t is
used to insulate electric wires and
as covering to prevent loss OF
heat from steam pipes. Mixed with
rubber, it is used to pack steam
joints.
Blue asbestos is variety found
only in South Africa. 1t occurs in
Griqualand West, and is mined
over an area Of 80, 200 acres. 1t
differs from the other varieties not
only in that it is blue in color, but
in being considerably lighter.
The asbestos is generally found
