short time we will own our own ships.
First they thought the stories of our

Exhibit Arranged by Prof VIM. 8.
Clark

The Maryland exhibit in the Mines
building at the Pan American exposition
at Buffalo is attracting much favorable
comment. The June number of Mines
and Metallurgy, the leading mining jour
nal of the country, speaks of the display
of coal as a monument to that industry,
and adds that The entire Maryland ex-
hibit is undoubtedly one of the most
beautifully and instructively arranged ex-
hibitions of the mineral resources of a
state that have ever been made. 1t shows
one OF the most successful attempts to
scientifically connect purely geological
features with the economic applications
which have evoIved from them
Beginning with the archaeological fea-
mineral products has been shown, even
the quantity and characteristics of each
constituent in the. proportion in which it
exists.
This exhibit was arranged under the
direction of Prof William Bullock Clark,
state geologist of Maryland and profess
sor of geology in Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity. By request of the Maryland COM
missoners of the Pan American exposi-
ton, Prof. Clark also prepared a pamph-
let of 40 pages upon the natural features
and resources of Maryland, including her
agriculture, her forest productions, her
mines and her fisheries. The pamphlet
is handsomely Illustrated, and presents a
wide range of information about the state
in an attractive way.

BRATTLEBORO, FRIDAY, JUNE 2s 1901.

Rev. Joseph Cook, 60, known as min
lister, author and lecturer, died Tues
day from bright's disease at his sum-
mer home in Ticonderoga, N. Y. He
was a graduate of Harvard and of the
Andover Theological Seminary, and
also studied extensively abroad. His
lectures on the relations of religion
and science, known as the Boston
Monday lectures, attracted audiences
which filled fremont Temple to its
capacity of 5000 people. Mr.. Cook
was also in great demand as a lecturer
throughout the United States, and
about 20 years ago he made lecturing
tour of the world, his visits to the
cities of Australia, England and other
countries being attended by great
popular outpourings. His lectures in
book form reached an enormous circu-
lation. He was large physically was
eloquent as a speaker, and he had a
striking way of saying striking things,
which made him platform fad, but
his ephemeral fame had lessened per
ceptibly in recent years. He was a
man of brains without balance,
veritable steam engine of power, but
lacking in the great essential of
governor. He was, in short, an ex-
travaganza. He was acrimonious in
treatment of questions and of men, to
an extent that left a stinging, resent
full feeling in those who did not agree
with him. 1t has been said that dog
mallsm was an inseparable quality
with him, but pugnacity would be a
more fitting word in this connection.

GOOD SPORT FOR THE FOURTH.
Fast Men Entering for the Races with
$3.50 in Prizes-Exhibiton Against

$3.50 in Prizes-Exhibition Against
Time and on Motor Bicycles.
All the indications are favorable for
a successful celebration July 4th, when
the attraction will be the bicycle races
for which Manley Brothers have offer
ed prizes aggregating $3.50. A large
number of fast riders are now corre-
spending with the promoters of the
meet, and several fast men have for
warded their entries. Exhibition rid
ing by the motor bicycles will be fea-
ture, and one large manufacturing con-
Germ has written here Offering to send
full line of automobiles for exhibit
tion purposes on the track
Several professional riders wish to
make the attempt to lower the track
record of So 2-5 seconds made by Eddie
Bald for " mile, and 2.04 for the mile
by Nat Butler. One of the fastest
amateur riders in the country has also
written saying that he would like to
bring his pacing outfit here to ride
against time.
1t is expected that the two local
races will arouse interest among Brat
tleboro wheelmen, particularly the pur-
suit race in which the teams will rep
resent the Estey Organ factory and
Moran & Company, with three riders
on each side.
The base ball game in the morning
will be between strong team of Brat
tleboro players and the Keene club
which has won nearly all the games
played this season. Arrangements are
now being made for a variety of field
sports on the island in the morning in
connection with the ball game, includ-
ing running, jumping, tug of war, etc.
These events will be open to all
corners, and suitable prizes will be
given,

The two largest, strongest and heav-
lest ships in the world are now being
built at Groton, opposite New London,
Conn. They will run from Seattle to
Yokohama, distance of 5000 miles,
or about twice the length of the voy-
age from New York to Liverpool, and
will be under the control of the Great
Northern railroad company. They
viii be of about 1000 tons register
and $4,000 tons displacement, or three
times as large as battle ships like the
Illinois. They are intended primarily
as cargo carriers, but will have room
for $50 first class, 100 second class,
$50 third class, and 1000 steerage pas
sengers. Their length is $50 feet,
breadth 73 feet, depth Sc feet. They
will have engines of 10000 horse
power, driving the great hulls loaded
at a speed of about IA knots. Their
dead weight carrying capacity at nor
NAL draft is 10000 tons, or about twice
the capacity of the largest Atlantic
steamships out of the port of Boston.

The Street Railway.

When the electric street car
system is complete, which will be
about six to eight months, the city
of Florence will be crossed and
re-crossed with bands of iron from
one end to the other. The road
will be buih of the best steel that
is possible to obtain: the cars will
be of the latest design and the
power house will be on a par with
any in the valley. The system
will cover Florence, connect with
all its mills and other industries
and will ultimately extend to
Canon City.
The Florence Electric Street
Railway company was incorporated
last June for 100000 and is com
posed of local people, although
the capital which is back of the
deal is mostly eastern.
Ground was broken few weeks
ago and shipments of structural
material are almost daily occur
rences.

EXPANSION OF FLORENCE.
She is Extending Her Borders
and Growing in Wealth.

West Florence is rapidly becom,
ing one of the important parts oil
the city Capital has found III
way there The city is growing
in that direction, many business
blocks on West Main street are
proposed and those at present
under construction are numerous
George Parker of williamsburg
has plans drawn for two brick
business blocks on the lots which
are at present occupied by the
Hasselm yer second hand store
These structures, when completed
will be two stories high and ar
rangements for rental are already
being made.
On the corner of West Main
street and Frazer lane another
business block will be built by
Thomas Jessup of Coal Greek
The excavation work was COM
menced last week. This building
was also rented even before the
plans were drawn for its construc-
ton.
Mrs. VIM. Callahan is building
business block on West Main
street and the work is going for
ward rapidly,
w. p. Hawkins, like many others
can see the future of West Flor
ence and has opened real estate
office, and even though the build
ing he occupies is not completed
many real estate sales are reported
In different parts of that dis
trict can be seen many new resi-
dences going up These are being
built by people who have recently
come to the city to make it their
home,
The big three story brick block
proposed to be erected by the
Union Labor Hall association,
will in all probability be located
in the West End, possible site
being on the corner of Main and
Green streets.
In the East End of the city all
the United Oil compaay's ground
is sold and the lots which are va
cant at present are owned by peo-
pie who do not care to sell But
in the very near future the town
will also be extended in that direc-
tion A. r Gumaer is busy plat
ting Margo Park. This will ex-
tend from the Santa Fe spur to
close proximity to the Hot Sprin IS
Block after block will be plated
and no doubt next summer these
new lots will sell like wild fire.
Margo Park, when finished,
will be handsome thing and all
Florence is eagerly awaiting that
time. 1t will attract the attention
of investors and even at this time
many are figuring on buying as
soon as the lots are placed on the
market.

The Hot Springs.

No definite action has yet been
taken toward beautifying the
grounds or building the new sani-
tarium at the Hot Springs east of
the city.
The qualities of the water, which
is artes an, has been well estab-
lished for its medicinal qualities
for rheumatism and numerous
other Affections, for many years.
The parties will build an up-to-
date sanitarium and it will be
modern in its appointments. The
editice will be built of brick and
will be costly structure. The
grounds will be made larger and
will be planted in grass. The
present lake will be enlarged and
boats will be put on it, The pres
ent bath houses will be torn down
and replaced with new, handsome
affairs. A bus line will also be
established between Florence and
the Springs. 1t is estimated that
the cost of the contemplated i'm
provements will be upwards OF
$4,000.

FORTY THOUSAND
DOLLAR PLANT
Manufacturing Machine Shops 10
be Built in Florence
BY OIL WELL SUPPLY co.

The Oil Well Supply company
has decided to build its machine
shops opposite the Denver & Rio
Grande depot and near Union
avenue.
The plant will be great deal
larger than was first reported and
the aggregate cost also will be
more than the original figures
The company has made changes
in its plans which will necessitate
an outlay of from $4,000 to "a J.
coo. This includes the entire cost
of the machine shops, machinery
and the two story office block.
The services of several of the
machinists and blacksmIths who
are at this time employed by the
company at its factory at Pitts
burg have been secured and the
men will arrive shortly. The
foreman will be a Florence man.
The actual work of construction
will be commenced before the end
of the month and it will take sew
eral months to complete it, When
finished it will greatly stimulate
the commercial life of the entire
Arkansas valley and put Florence
in the forefront as shipping
point of the product of the plant.
This enterprise will prove OF
great benefit to all the industries
operating in this section. as it will
afford headquarters for all kinds
and grades of steel that is used in
the local reduction works, oil fields
and ad jacent coal mines.
In this location it will have am.
pie space for trackage and wagon
road and will be so constructed
that a spur can be built right up
to the works. Iis location will be
handy for all the mills, adjacent
to the railroad and convenient Tor
all the oil companies
The Oil Well Supply company
is big coacein, operating in
eighteen or twenty towns in the
south, east and west and is fully
alive and abreast of the times and
the addition of these works will
be appreciated by those whose
faith is ever pinned to the growth,
development and future of Flor
ence as a city which is fast becom-
ing metropolitan in its ways and
commercial standing
The Oil Well Supply company
fully appreciates the fact that
Florence is growing town a
rapidly growing town and needs
something of this kind. One
feature of the locating of these
works is the fact that it comes
here unsolicited and the company
asks no bonus from the city or its
people as is usually the case in
such instances.
In this plant Will be manufact-
ured lathes of different sizes, pipe
machines capable of cutting and
threading any size of pipe up to
fourteen inches in diameter, shap-
ers, blow presses, emery wheels,
etc, etc This concern will do all
kinds of work for mills in this
western country, which is now 60
ing to Denver, but which. after
this plant is completed, will come
here. The machinery going into
this plant will.be the finest made.

TO GROW SUGAR BEETS.
Mr.. Schmidts Visit Proves Profit
able and Interests Farmers.

1t looks now as if the visit here
of William Winterhalter of Rocky
Ford, aud @. B. Schmidt of Pueblo,
for the purpose of inducing the
ranchmen of this vicinity to plant
their acreage to beets the coming
spring, will prove fruitful.
1t is stated upon good authority
that lumber of our townsmen
have also been induced to take a
hand III the matter and further its
progress. Notwithstanding the
fact that the land around Florence
proves very profitable when sown
to alfalfa, and that three crops are
yearly matured, still it is thought
now that if sugar beets were grown
it would prove even more prof
liable.
These gentleman will call n
public meeting of citizens at the
court house at Canon City next
Saturday Tor the purpose of in
ducing the ranchmen of that vi
cinity to also take up the propo-
sitlon.
What these gentlemen want is
our agriculturists to plant at least
from 100 to $50 acres in this vi
cinity and would like to have the
same amount between here and
the county seat The raising of
sugar beets in the Arkansas valley
is a new industry and is proving a
grand success, to say the least.
Last year the land at Rocky
Ford yielded beets to the amount
of from S15 to Sl2S an acre.
Mr.. Schmidt has examined the
soil hereabouts and thinks that
the raising of sugar beets would
prove a grand success.
