EXCITING EVENTS ATT PARIS.
NJ. Quesnay De Beaurepaire, Whose Ac
tion In Resigning from the Court
of Cassatlon Has Asto1nded All the
Republic.

NJ. Jules Quesnay de Beaurepaire has
had rapid advancement in the French
magiStracy, owing, as many persons OF
different parties in Paris assert, to po-
litical influence and to his deXterity.
After the war with Prussia, having
tried editing a newspaper and attempt
ed without success to get into Parlia-
ment, he took up again the career Of
magistrate, which he had given up
when the empire fell. Within four
years he was made Advocate-Gen er ri
at Paris, where he prepared the\ c=S9
against Louis Michel Six years later,
in 1889, he was promoted to Procur-
eur-General equivalent to Attorney
GeneraD on the refusal of his predeces
sor to prosecute General Boulanger.
Later he insisted on conducting the
case against Ravachol, the anarchist,
In person. His conduct at the time of
the Panama trials was SO ambiguous
that his resignation was practically
forced from him, and he was shelved

ton. The appointment was severely
criticised at the time as being job.

If l was a father l wouldn't be so

amazement at Tommy. Slowly the
significance Of the hint dawned upon
him. Producing the silver coin he said:

do become father, hope it won't be
your misfortune to have a son who is

Belts speaks French as fuently as
lie does English. He was born in 1915
and was 10 years old when General
Lafayette visited Kaskaskia in 1925.
The old man says that he can remem-
Der the occasion and is always ready
70 give an account of the great event.
In 1851 Belts, with a party Of pros
pectors, made the trip across the plains
in a prairie schooner to the gold fields
OF California. But Belts came back in
very short while, and he says today
that there want no chance for a
poor man out there then,
He has not been off Kaskaskia is
land for more than twenty-five years.
Year after year he has remained in
the tumble-down old village and
watched the constant efforts Of the
mighty Mississippi river to COM
pletely wash away the historic
spot. Belts was at one time
reclthv md owned a fertile farm
near the junction Of the Mississippi
and Kaskaskia rivers, but when the
former stream decided that her course
had been cut out wrong and changed
her current to the channel of the Kas-
kaskia the Belts farm went floating
the great Mississippi delta. During the
long summer months the old man sits
on the rivers bank, near the spot for
merly occupied by the famous Kas-
events in the bygone days of the old
town.
He was one of the members Of that
remarkable funeral train when, in 1874,
during the food in the Mississippi val
ley. the remains of Pierre Menard, the
first acknowledgement Of Illinois,
who died in his mansion on the op-
posite side of the river, were taken
across to Kaskaskia In a rowboat.
During the winter the old man sell
dom leaves his home, and it took much
coaxing to get him far enough from
the door to take his picture. He was
never before photographed and to him
it was novel experience He wanted
one of the pictures and thought it
strange that they had to be put
through a process before they were
perfected.

WHERE TIN is BEING MINED,

Sources from Which the Desirable
Product is Obtained.
The tin used in the tin plate indus
try comes from several sources. The
lest of these is found in Australia and
the straits settlements. The latter fur
nish the most desirable tin, known as
Eanca tin. This is regarded as the
rurest, and is in consequence more
sought after by the manufacturers Of
tin plate. The Cornwall mines were
discovered about 55 B. c., and for
twelve centuries were the one source
of this mineral. In 1910 tin was found
in Bohemia. Five hundred years later,
in 1850, the Banca mines were opened.
In the following century Australia be-
came a producer of block tin on a
large scale From 1872 tin has been
found in commercial quantities in New
South Wales, Queensland and Tas-
mania. The United States have not
been so fortunate, although many at
tempts have been made from time to
time to find tin. Tin was discovered

there was no mining done until 1868.
Only for short time were the mines
operated; they were then closed down
and remained so until 1885, In this
year an American company bought the
property with the intention of oper-
ating it, but it was sold to an English
syndicate before two years had pass
ed. Something like 100000 was spent,
but no special results were secured.
The total product Of the nine was
100000 pounds of tin valued at s56,00O.
The Harvey Peak mine is the story Of
another futile attempt to get tin in
commercial quantities The Harney
Peak, as it is Familiarity called, is stu
ated near Custer City, S. D. A great
deal of money has been spent in the
development of this mine, but it is
doubtful if more than ten tons OF metal
have been taken out of the ground.
The English capitalists were also
heavily interested in this attempt. In
Alabama, North Carolina and Virginia
bearing rock has been found In
no sense can the United States be re-
garded as tin-producing country.

When Does the Century End?

The opening day Of the twentieth
century is still matter of inquiry. It
will not be January 1st, 1900, but Jan
uary 1st, 1901. 1t takes a full 100
years, not ninety-nine, to complete the
century. The first decade did not end
with the close Of the year 9, but year
10, and the second decade began with
the year II. The first century ended
with the close Of the year 100, and ths
nineteenth century will end with the
close Of 1900, not with 1899. Anyone
having doubts can count back year by
year from 1900 to 1.

Meet the New York Rate.

No action to Eaeet the Soo's cut rate of
$40 frst-class and ST second class to New
York city was taken by the agents of the
Chicago lines yesterday. The action of
the previous day in making holiday rates
OF S36 round trip to Eastern points, to
meet those previously announced by the
500, has seemed sufficient There were no
indications yesterday Of further action.
he st. Paul agents of Chicago lines
held conference with General Passenger
Agent Galloway, Of the 500, Immediately
upon learning Of the publication of the
New York rates. They presented their
case and outlined their objections to the
SOO's action. The conference lasted an
hour and the entire situation was care
fully gone over. Mr.. Galloway stated to
the agents that he had tested the market
the day following the enforcement Of the
new Chicago agreement, with the inten-
ton of learning to now great al extent
the rules applied. He stated that his
road had become possessed Of two tick
cts to New York, though the time Of
purchase was not specified which were
secured on the open market for 81. This
he represented, was sufficient evidence
to the 500 that the agreement was Of
little effect and that cuts existed. even
In the face CT alleged stringent restric-
tons. For this reason, the 500 had pub
hshed a rate of ST second-class, that
seeming to be the figure at which tickets
were on sale. and had placed the first
class rate al $19.
The agents Of the Chicago lines made
an offer to the 500 to redeem ut full
tariff value all tickets which the latter
road could secure on the market. The
proposition was rejected.
Speaking of tie situation yesterday, a
passenger agent who was in the Gala
way conference said:
I'VE have met the Soos holiday rates
East and there is no particular reason
for going further. The new rates to New
York will produce considerable trouble
but the amount of business which we will
loose via Chicago through them is incon-
siderable. There is not sufficient travel

that it will in all probability follow its
