MINES ARE MERGED
All the Silvers of the Thunder Bay
District.
ARAILRoAD BUILT IN THIS YEAR
Old Diggings Are Being Pumped
Out and New Machinery
Set Up.

Special to The Journal
Port Arthur, Ont, Feb. 22-All the sill
yer mines of Thunder Bay district, stu
ated on Silver mountain, have been con-
sOlidated as the Consolidated Silver Mines
of Lake Superior, Limited. They include
the West End Silver mountain, which has
been in successful operation in a small
and quiet way for three or four years,
the East End, the Beaver, Badger and
Porcupine.
In the early days, before the slump that
carried SO many silver mines to failure,
these all worked successfully. They were
a long way from anywhere and what can
now be done for 40 cents then cost 81. A
railroad has been built close by them
three years shipping rich sulphides and
heavy native silver to Duluth for the
smelters It's ore has run from $1,000 to
$4,000 to the ton, and has been hand
picked and shipped in sacks. The forma-
tion in which these mines are is strong
but the silver bearing lodes are pockety
and occasional. The Badger and East
resume as soon as proper machinery can
be set up. All the machinery outfits of
several of these mines was sold for a song
the past few years.
A silver bearing vein of much promise
has been found on the Internal ional boun-
dairy near Pigeon river. This is not far
from the Ancient Diggings" mine. oper-
ated years ago by a Detroit concern The
spar composing the vein matter at the
new find is thickly mixed with sulphide

Correspondence of The Journal.
London, Feb. 5.-If DR.. Newman Hall $
present serious illness should chance to
end fatally, the United States will have
lost one of its best friends on this side
of the water.
The eminent Congregational clergy
man, who is now one of Great Britain S
grand old men, was one of the few really
prominent people in England who went
out of their way to support the north
in the American civil war. DR.. Hall was
then pastor Of the Surrey Chapel, and
Sunday after Sunday he preached Wig
orous sermons denouncing slavery and
eulogizing the north for it's policy. Words
of encouragement from the "old country"
were scarce enough to be most welcome
in those times and the people of the
north did not prove ungrateful. When
Dr.. Hall and his Surrey Chapel congre-
cation were bending every nerve to raise
the $32O,O00 necessary to build the new
place Of worship that is known as
"Christ's Church, LAMBETH" Americans
subscribed enough money to build the
graceful steeple by which it is crowned,
and the ceremonies connected with it's
completion were presided over by the son

DIDN'T LIKE Stages PLAN
Iowa Rejects His Proposed Baseball
Rule.

Iowa Rejects His Proposed Baseball
Iowa university has rejected the terms
which A. A. Stage Of Chicago sought to
impose upon that institution in his sum-
mer baseball resolution. Stage sought to
shut out from participation in baseball
games preparatory students who, during
their high school or grammar school days,
had played on teams in games where a
small admission was charged. This pro-
vision was regarded as altogether too
sweeping and making the definition of
professionalism little too broad to be
easily digested.
The Iowans have also been informed
that Stage will be unable to bring the
Chicago football team to Iowa City for
the proposed Nov. 1 game. This leaves
Iowa three big games. This is the COM
plete Iowa schedule:
Sept. 27-Open.
Oct .4-State normal school, on Iowa field.
Oct 11-Drake university, on Iowa field.
Oct 18-Simpson college, on Iowa field.
Oct 26-Minnesota on Iowa field.
Nov. State agricultural college, on Iowa
Nov. Michigan. on Regents field, Ann
Arbor.
Nov. 15-Grinnell at Iowa City.

New York. Feb. 22.-The reports that
the American League intends to place a
club in this city have been strengthened
by the presence here of Judge Harry Gold

Washington, Feb. 22.-The secretary Of
the interior has communicated to con-
gress report on the condition of the
Indian service in the various states. The

strong was to ascertain what progress the
Indians are making in the art Of civil
ization, the propriety of reducing the size
of their reservations and the advisa bility

not near as much as it should have been"

and lack progress. AS to the Turtle
Mountain band, Inspector Armstrong says
they are Industrious and are trying to
earn their support by hard labor. Con-
corning the Indians at Fort Berthold, ~
D., the statement is made that they are
we'll advanced in civilization. "But they
are too we'll cared for says Mr.. Arm
strong. He recommends that rations be
no longer issued to them.
