EHl le.w Railroad.
TIE Du1ath, Virginia & Rainy River Rail.
soad tie Name Of : Proposed New Linz
From Hese TO Koochichine. S.

THE Duluth, Virginia and Rainy
River Railway company" is the
style ola new corporation which in
a few days will file articles with the
secretary of the state of Minnesota.
1t has been formed for the purpose
of building a railroad from Vir
ginia, Mimi, to the village of
koochich1ug on Rainy River. The
enterprise means a great deal to
Duluth. Prominent men are be-
hind it and it is altogether proba-
BILE that the line will be constructed.
1t is understood that among the
men who are promoting the road
are individual and corporations
controlling large areas of land and
timber between Virginia and Kooch-
iching.
Speaking of the proposed road
yesterday Duluth attorney, who
has clients representing 2O0O00yO00
feet of pine in the region which the
proposed road will tap, said:
1--WE propose to build from Vir-
ginia to Koochiching. The Cana
dian Northern road will be Just
across the river at Fort Francis. 1
don't know whether we shall con-
meet with that line or not. 1t is a
good business proposition to build
to Koochiching and let the future
connections take care of themselves.
There are hundreds of millions of
feet of timber between Virginia:and
Koochiching which is stake to be
won by Duluth or Minneapolis.
The latter. city is already after it
and we shall lose it unless we act.
There are millions upon millions of
feet of pine, tamarack, cedar and
other other varieties of wood which
is going to be manufactured at Du-
luth or Minneapolis. When I say
Duluth, also refer to other saw
mill manufacturing towns in this
region which are directly tributary
to Duluth. The Minneapolis inter
ests are already after much of this
timber with the new road that is
being build from Bemidji north to
the Rainy River. This road does
not aim to strike the heaviest body
of timber in that region, but unless
a road which is tributary to Duluth
is built the timber ultimately will
go in that direction and follow the
Mississippi river to Minneapolis"
1t is believed that the proposed
new railroad company has in view
the hauling of wheat in connection
with the Canadian Northern road.
It will make a new line to Winni-
peg and d shorter one than now
exists. 1t is not known what road
the Duluth, Virginia and Rainy
River line proposes to connect with
at Virginia. There are three of
them there, however, the Iron
Range, Missabe and Eastern Mimi
esota.
il. Wash5urn is among the &C.
tive promoters of the new railroad.

length and consists of milling and
drying plant When the salt arrives at
the mill it is thrown into a bulkhead
breaker and reduced to uniform parti
eles, which are run through burr mill
and thoroughly ground. There is an al
most if1lperceptible portion of carbon
ate Of soda mixed with the native salt,
and this simply aids in the cleansing
pre- cess. When thoroughly ground the
salt is sifted like flour through boiling
cloth. put through an aspirator, which
removes all foreign substances, and Is
then ready to sack. Aside from the re-
fined or domestic salt there are tons
and tons of hide-salt shipped annually
from Salton. This grade is only sold
for commercial and industrial pur-
poses.
The most delightful time to visit the
crystal lake is upon a moonlight night.
The spectacle is magnificent, but
weird. The rows Of giistening ryra-
nids, the glitter of the moonlight from
the facets of millions of crystals, the
distant background of low, black hills,
the expanse and stiffness of the shad-
owless plain, strike one with awe and
wonder that can never be forgotten.
Last December the United States
land Office unearthed some records
which seemed to indicate that the salt
farming company had no right or title
to the valuable property 1t is now
working. Owing to the peculiar geo
graphical conditions consequent upon
the overflow of the river forming the
Salton sea and the subsequent subsi-
denee and disappearance of the sea, the
legal points involved are quite intri-
cate. The case will probably come up
soon. for adjudication. 3.

MAYBE THE DEEPEST NINE.
Talk of sinking a Shaft Nearly Two
Miles for Copper Ore.
From the Milwaukee Sentinel.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel.
1t will require a deep shaft to de-
velop q mine to the west of the Tam
arack--a shaft of nearly two miles in
depth--but in view. of the wonderful
strides made in deep mining in the past
decade it is not beyond the range of
possibilities that such a shaft may be
started soon. Fifteen years ago the
sinking of No. Tamarack to a certi-
cal depth of 2,270 feet made new
worlds record, and the men who sank
it were denounced as lunatics until the
phenomenal success closed the mouths
of their detractors.
The bottoming of the Red Jacket
shaft only a few years ago, at
depth of 1900 feet, was regarded with
wonder, and held by many to be the
ultimate limit in deep mining, yet to-
day the No. s shaft of the Tamarack
lacks but a moments work of being
full 5000 feet in depth, and the
hosting plant just installed is built
for service to a depth of 5000 feet
nearly three times the depth at which
the original Tamaraek shaft cut the
lode, although then denounced as a
crazy undertaking by some of the best
mining men in this district.
If the planned limits of deep mining
have been extended to almost three
times their original bounds, within less
than two decades, the jump from 5000
to 10000 feet is not such an impossible
one as it now seems to many. A
shaft two miles in depth could be sunk
in ten years at cost, including equip
ment, of 81, 900 or 100000. In other
words, a two-naile shaft could be sunk
and equipped at about the same cost
and in about the same time as the Red
Jacket shaft, which lacks a little of a
mile in depth.
There is really but one serious draw
back to the sinking of a tWo-mile
shaft, and that is the question of VEN
tilation. At such great depth the heat
would be very great. The develop
ments of the next two years in No. 5
Tamarack will settle the question OF
whether two-mile shaft could be OPP
Grated to advantage, That it could be
sunk is no longer open to question. At
the deep vertical shafts of the Calumet
district powerful fans are used to re-
inforce the natural system of ventila-
ton obtaining in all deep mines that
have more than a single shaft.
In the case of the hypothetical two
mile shaft the single opening could be
made to serve the purpose of two
shafts by making the different cons
| partments air-tight and using one OF
them for a down cast, and another for
| Ian up-cast, or chimney, to withdraw
! the heated air from the mine.
/ The compressed air from the power
| drills is also a powerful factor in mine
operations at great depths, as air gives
up much of its heat under compress
sion, and when released quickly robs
the surrounding rock and the free air
| in the mine of a portion of their heat.

i Chinese Editors Sarcasm.
E,roro the Pail Mall Gazette.


There are many people besides DR..
Parker who regard an editors position
as a soft thing" and certain NUM-
Der of these persons have made their
appearance in unaccustoned China.
where they are expanding much time
and labor in the correction and cody
adlnonition of the editor OF native
paper, whose robust reform proclivities
are offending against the innutaple
laws OF his hand. Driven at length to
defend himself, the harassed journal
list addressed to his critics brief edi-
torial, of which the following transia-
ton gives an idea of the Chinese con-
ception Of sarcasm, enormously declar-
ed to be nonresident by many travel
ers. After a preliminary acknowledg-
ment of fallibility the article pro-
ceeds.
I'm future nothing which may be de-
scrfbed as new will appear in these
columns, and thereby prevent peoples
understandings from being enlighten-
ed. None but bigoted members OF the
conceited literati will ever be called
to assist upon the editorial staff. We
shall confine ourselves to the affairs
of the last dynasty, carefully avoiding
all reference to the family that now
rules China. We shall give our special
attention to fortune telling, witch
craft, and kindred subjects of truth, OF
which no one has any doubt. A place
Of supreme Importance will be given
to the revered teachings of geonancy.
and we shall show that mans good
luck or misfortune is controlled by the
stars. We shall respectfully beg His
Majesty to observe the old customs,
and that the Mandarins follow their
excellent and time-honored methods of
transacting business. We shall resist
with all our strength every attempt to
introduce reforms, and lest we should
be tempted to record any current
events we resolve from this time for
ward to dispense with the service of
all reporters as a useless waste of
money. We hope in this way to earn
the good will and support Of all our
readers, firmly believing that II we
faithfully do according to this honest
and admirable advice the benefit will
be manifested to all"

Set Germs on Mosquitoes.
From the New York Sun.

Dr.. r. N. Connolly, the bacterioio-
gist of the Newark Board of Health,
is experimenting along a new lire to
kill off mosquitoes. He is in search
of a disease germ which will affect the
mosquito and not be dangerous if COM
nunicated by the mosquito to hui
man being. He cites the defamation
of the locusts in Africa by means of
a disease communicated to them from
a few of the insects which were in
fected by laboratory cultures, and he
is of the opinion that mosquitoes may
be overcome in this manner with less
trouble and at smaller cost than by
choking them with kerosene.
