VENDETTAS or THE PRESENT
They Diner but Slightly from the
Sanguinnry Feuds of Other
DAYS.

1t is through lack of information that
the vendetta is referred to to-day as an
institution of the past. Vendettas---
blood feuds-exist to-day not only in
Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica, bit in
Kentucky and other of the southern
and western states, and also at times
in England, Ireland and France, Italy
and the east, says the New York World.
1t has happened recently that an Al
bantam whose relative had been killed
by a Turkish vizier shot the vizier's
son-which is at least a partial exem-
plitication of the vendetta. In Arabia
the system is to-day in full operation,
a fact which is so well understood that
offenses sufficient TO start a train OF
killings are rarely committed, and a
considerable degree of order is there
by preserved.
AS it is generally understood the
vendetta originated in the following
practice: An assassin was never al
lowed to escape. The responsibility OF
punishment was assumed by the near
est blood relations of his victim. There
must be blood for blood, death for a
death.

THE MOST IMPORTANT
MOVEMENT
In the Interests OF Man
itowoc in Years.
IT'S MUCH IN ITSELF AND IT
PROMISES MORE.

Manitowoc has promise OF an industry
the possibilities of which are beyond
computation. 1t comes largely indeed
wholly through the work OF Mr.. VIM
Hess of the Manitowoc Boiler Works
Mr.. Hess has been solicited frequently
to move his plant to Chicago where he
had offers which were most tempting
To all solicitations he urged compro-
mise that those soliciting should come
TO Manitowoc, and he is now III a fail
way of carrying his point, which II ne
succeeds means an unqualified assur-
ance of the city's growth beyond expect
tation of recent times.
The new enterprise is the location OF a
plant here for special boiler work. mat
is the pressing out of boiler plate, boiler
heads and domes. This, of course, Is
only part of its field of operations
The factory will employ $50 men to be
gin with and the plant will cost Sloo' ooo.
1t will require machine shop ara
foundry of its own. 1t will require an
entire block and number OF side tracks
as such plant as is Contemplated VIII
ship from to 10 car loads day.
At Mr.. Hess request the name OF the
concern is not given. The reason Ii
seeks a location in Manitowoc is to be
near the Bo;'yr Works as the two
can work to mutual advantage. Boil
er plate, heads and domes Will Dc
shipped to other points too, 1t Is con-
fidently expected by the parties inter
ested in this movement that Manltowoc
will be the great boiler works city Oh
the lakes owing to maine interests
The Bradley fleet and the Wilson feet
will make Manitowoc their winter quar-
tiers in the future, and it is estimated
that they spend 5000, 600 each winter III
repairs. Besides it is confidently ex-
pected that rolling mills will soon fol
low the location of this plant here nov
in contemplation. The location OF tn
elevators here is helping onin this move
ment. Capital is eagerly looking toward
Manitowoc because of the splendid pos
sibilities wrapped up in its future
The Boiler Works and the elevators
are the two great factors in this prom
ised development Because of them fleets
winter here and invite manufacturing
plants.
The Pilot may be at liberty to say
more in next weeks issue OF this happl
turn in the tide of affairs which though
not fully assured gives excellent promise
Mr.. Hess has now 80 men employed
There are Is of his men at work at GUM
