Train stopped by insects.

A peculiar incident occurred a short
time ago to a Scotch express, which
really caps the story of the mouse
which got into the brake apparatus of
train and soon brought It to a CON-
plete standstill.
While on a steep incline mile or so
from Invershin, the train suddenly
slowed " and eventually stopped. Az
ter an examination it transpired that
myriads of midges had been swarming
near the ground, and being crushed by
the wheels Of the train, had left the
rails in very Shiny condition, pre-
venting the engine from gripping the
rails, and so stopping 1t. Although
several lodges were tried, among them
that of throwing earth along the line.
the train was unable to proceed until
it was divided into sections and drawn
up the incline piecemeal. This Incl
dent caused delay of nearly an hour.

OUR TOPEKA LETTER.
Some Practical Patriotic Pointers For the
Steen to 0ners.
TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. IA, 1899.

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. IA, 1899.
On account of sickness in my fami-
ly had to make long trip out home,
across country, and through the cold.
Then the frost was so bad me think
works didn't operate well so my last
letter was delayed. L hope no one was
disappointed.
As | said in my last letter, l was
appointed committee on mines and
mining with power to recommend
suitable legislation. | was hegd, body,
chairman, secretary, clerk, and stem
ograDher OF this committee. In fact
/ was the whole thing and if any one
is entitled to credit for the recon-
mended legislation it is the humble
servant OF d downtrodden people,
RoXand.
Your committee investigated the
Empire and Galena on Short Creek
We mingled freely with the mine
owners and the mine workers of some
of the richest mines of lead and zinc
in all the wide, wide world. We dis
covered that the price of zinc has
gone up from SIS to $40 per ton since
the election of Mckinley. We found
the commonest unskilled laoorer
working for 81 so per day. We found
all coal miners getting $3.50 to S4OO
per day according to their skill, in
dustry and condition of the mine.
Plainly there is but one remedy for
more legislation.
We found that lead and zinc ore is
crushed and then separated from
waste rock by d jigger machine sous
ing the stuff up and down in box of
water. Lead ore is then smeIted or
melted in FORCES called eyes by
burning it with charcoal and lime
burners.
1t takes hot fire to melt zinc ore.
1t takes about three tons of coal to
one ton of zinc, besides lot of coke.
SO it is cheaper to ship the zinc to the
coal mines. The committee went up
to Scammon to see the coke ovens
and oven to Weir City to see the zinc
smelters. Zinc is smelted in furnaces
or stacks of clay tubes of fire CLAY.
called retorts. This fire clay comes
from ST. Louis and is the only neces-
Starry article used in the whole busi-
ness which is not produced in Kansas.
The zinc collects in the form of gas in
the lower outside emu of the tubes or
retortS and is run OFF into large fiat
cakes and is then called spelter.
When the tubes are broken the CLAY
is ground up and moulded over again.
Molten lead is run off into bars about
eighteen inches long, weighing nearly
100 pounds. They are called pigs
and they are the heaviest breed of
hogs for their size your committee
ever saw.
After seeing and Investigating all
these things we returned to Topeka
and INTRODUCED the following to the
notice of the senate:
WHEREAS, Kansas has no silver
mines but does own the richest lead
and zinc mines in the world there
fore be it
Resolved by the Senate of the State
of Kansas, the House concurriny
therein, that the Governor and Treas
urer of Kansas be and are hereby COM
