Mayor Patrick j. Ryan of Elizabeth,

that ancient city. sat in his Office on
Broad street the day before election.
A dark skinned, sleek looking young
a was ushered in. Disposing him
self in a comfortable chair, he spread
out his hands and in a soft voice, with
a decided accent, began:
"Meester Ryan, you be the next
mayor of Eleez'. You Gamma be beet"
There was a pause, during which the
caller observed the ceiling contempla-
lively, and Mr.. Ryan observed him
with an indulgent smile. The strange
young man continued:

J. Kulberg, A Finlander, Shoots
Himself At Al Early Hour
Monday Evening.
CAUSE UNKNOWN.

At about 900 O'Clock Monday
morning the residents of the east
end of Chestnut aud Walnut street
were startled by the report of gun
and onlookers saw man near the
Kraker residence on Railroad ave
nue., fall and lie in the throes of
death.
The matter was at once reported
to the authorities, and the body re-
moved to Mesberg's morgue.
Deputy Coroner Christopher was
summoned, but decided that no in
quest was necessary, as the act was
evidently one of self-destruction.
Investigation proved the man to
be J. Kulberg, Finlander of about
80 years of age, of whom naught
was known excepting that he had
been here about month, during
which time he had been recognized
as sober, Industrious man. A re.
ceipt found in his pocket was fol-
500 which had been sent to friends
in Finland short time ago.
! The revolver with which the deed
was done was new 38-calibre John
son, and was evidently purchased
with generalization of the deed
The remains were held until Wed
nesday, when interment was made
in the Virginia cemetery.

In the mayoralty contest the
three cornered fight made the re-

although up to few days prior to

Mayor Thompson, the present in.

IN THE GRAND RArIDA DISTRICT,
Iron ore has been found on three
sides of Grand Ra pids-north, south
and west. For some time past Kribs
and 1ckler have been prospecting
on land south of town on sections
10 and 20 in township SO, range %;
and it is the intention of these
gentlemen to put in drills to further
test the deposits. A few DAYS ago
Roy Wheaton found iron on the
northwest quarter of section 81,
township 90 25. This is on the
south side of Lilly lake about one
mile from town. Mr.. Wheaton was
offered ST. 900 for half interest in
one forty, by H. c. 1ckler, of St. Paul
which he accepted. This week he
received an offer of $1,000 for the
other half which he refused.
Two drills have been at work for
some time on the southwest quarter
of section 35, 56-25. This is the lease
from the state held by Hopewell

CARLTON COUNTY GOLD.

There is quite gold excitement
in Carlton county. Some of Mesaba
range iron ore explorers have be-
come interested aud Captain NJ. L.
Fay of Virginia is one of them. He
has four crews in the field near the
Sauntry location, south of Carlton,
and is sinking four shafts.
Captain Fay says that he and his
associates have options on 5000
acres of land in the territory where
gold bearing quartz is found and
declares it remains to be seen if
quartz bearing sufficient gold to
make mining profitable will be
found.
There are several other prospec-
tors in Carlton county looking for
the same metals.-Duluth News

Il CALUIBLE INTENTION.

Superintendent Frank NJ. Stanton,
of the Atlantic, is the inventor of
what would seem to be the missing
link in the matter of securing an
absolutely correct record of the
duty of hosting engines, and ow-
ing to the many and varied advan-
tages it cannot but prove interest
ing to mining men and corpora
tions. The device, which will be
known as hoist recorder, is simple
in its arrangement, and the strang-
est thing is that something Of this
kind has not been invented before.
The records of tine hosting engine
and skip are secured on a paper
tape about 8 inches in width. The
movement of the skip operates a
roll over which the paper travels.
The tape is fed with the clock and
automatically stamped on the mar
gin in divisions representing hours,
minutes and seconds of the day.
The marking point is connected
with the hosting drum by suitable
mechanism, and travels across the
tape in exact proportion to the
movement of the skip. AS before
stated, the tape makes a complete
record of the business of each shift.
Each delay is automatically regis
tered, also the time consumed in
hoisting and stoppages. 1t records
the number of trips made, where
the skips are loaded, time consumed
in loading, and the exact distance
travelled. The record will show the
maximum and minimum velocity
attained at all times, and the loca-
ton of the skip at every moment
during the shift. If improper speed
is being attained the fact is record
ed, and in fact it seems as if the
many advantages can scarcely be
appreciated until the hoist recorder
comes into use. The new invention
can be used on any kind of hoist or
rope tramway. Mr.. Stanton has
been granted a patent, and expects
to have one of the hoist recorders
in use within few months, while
as soon as possible they will be in
use at all three shafts at the Allan
tic mine.-Hancock Journal.

ARE ALL FOR HANNA,
His Popularity Is the Feature of tn,
Ohio Convention.

His Popularity Is the Feature of the
Ohio Convention.
Cleveland, May 28.-The feature of
Ahe Republican state convention is the
unanimity of sentiment in favor of
Senator Hanna. He has been the cen.
ter OF interest since his arrival here
from Washington last Sunday. The
conferences of leaders with him con-
tinued during the day, but when it
came to the meeting of the delegates
by congressional districts the senti-
ment for him was demonstrated in an
unprecedented degree. His friends
had claimed 18 out of the 21 districts
and more than realized their expecta-
tlons. Interest cehtered in the selec-
tlon OF the state committeeman, as
the new state central committee will
nave control next year when members
OF the legislature are elected who will
choose the successor of Hanna in the
senate. 1t is claimed that there was
only one anti-Hannar man selected on
the new state committee and that he
has been reconciled." The drift of
sentiment in all the preliminary meet
1ngs was most enthusiastic for the
senator and in the convention the DELE
gates would not rest until he got up
and showed himself, although he in
sisted that he would not discuss the
issues in advance of the keynote
speech of General Grosvenor, who is
to be the permanent presiding officer.
Besides naming committees no busi-
ness was transacted at the days ses-
sion of the convention.

various buildings and departments
were made and photograph of the

Before leaving for New York the count
addressed the cadets, congratulating
them on their fine appearance and SOL
dierly bearing, and saying their coun-
try had reason to be proud of their

WRECK ON THE WEST PENN
Engineer and Fireman Die in a Terri.
BILE Manner.

" Blairsville, Pa, May 2S.-One of the
worst wrecks in the history of the
West Penn railroad occurred.at point
called Porters curve. Engineer James
Couch and Fireman J. E. James were
killed and Conductor Grant Gibson
badly injured. The engine was entire
ly wrecked and four freight cars, load
ed with valuable freight, together with
cabin car, were a total wreck. The
track was torn up for a distance of
several hundred yards.
Engineer Couch was pinned under
meath the wreckage and his body was
horribly mangled. Fireman James was
thrown in such position that he was
forced to inhale the scalding steam
which was escaping from a number of
broken steam pipes in the cab of the
engine. His shrieks and cries for help
while pinned under the engine were
terrible and he finally begged some
OF the men to put him out of his mis-
cry. The wreck was caused by the
engine being derailed on the curve by
a f1ange on one of the wheels break

THE OUTLOOK is BRIGHT.
British Hopeful Of PeaceSas Result Of
Neuotiations


London, May ,28.-The British cab
met was in session for two hours dur
ing the day, discussing the communiea-
tions received from Pretoria since the
meeting of the ministers on Friday
last. It is understood that the inner
committee of the cabinet will tele-
graph the result of the deliberations to
Pretoria during the afternoon, }
The Boer delegates at the Trans
vaal capital will then probably return
to Veereningen and report to the
burghers who are still assembled
there. -. .rf~*.1
According to the views of. officials
here there is nothing to warrant the
pesslmistic opinions expressed in some
quarters regarding the ultimate out
come OF the discussions at Pretoria and
Vereeningen..
The Associated Press learns that, the
government continues to be satisfied
that the negotiations will result in a
peaceful settlement. Some minor points
are stillSbeing discussed but these are
expected to be fully disposed of with
in a day or two.
"A. y. DolIOul, Iue government ledQef,
made no statement in the house of
commons regarding the peace nego-
tiations, but he announced post
ponement of the discussion of the bud
get, fixed for this week, remarking
that it would be very inconvenient to
debate the budget while there were
other things in the balance"
He subsequently explained that it
would be impossible, in discussing the
budget, to prevent references to the
peace negotiations,

SOME DAY NEXT WEEK.
Senate Will Then Probably Dispose of
the Phiippine Bill.

oenate VIII lhen Probably Dispose of
the Philippine Bill.
Washington, May 2S.-A fruitless
effort was made just before the ad-
Journment of the senate to secure an
agreement on a time for vote on the
Philippine bill. The discussion indi-
Gated that some day next week even
tually would be agreed upon, but no
time was fixed: During the discussion
q proposition was made that a time
be fixed on alternate Tuesdays, begin
nlng next week; for vote on the Phil
ippine bill, the Nicaragua canal bill
and the Cuban reciprocity bill, and
that a final adjournment be agreed on
for the fourth Tuesday; but it was
too startling to be taken seriously, al
though some senators regarded it ia
vorably.
For several hours Mr.. Patterson of
Colorado discussed the Philippine
question, concluding his speech. After
reviewing and commenting on the gen.
eral Philippine question he attacked
the pending bill, particularly it's pro-
visions regarding the holding of lands.
He declared that it was monstrous
and never should be enacted into law.
He urged that the Filipinos be granted
their Independence and drew an ,elo-
quent word picture Of the turning over
to the Filipinos by the United States
of the islands when they had estab-
lished a government.
Early in the, session a committee
was appointed by the senate to confer
with like committee of the house
about the disagreement which has
arisen between the two houses as to
the army appropriation bill.

Black CiOuoo From Mont Pelee Rolling
Over Fort de France.
Fort de France, Island of Martin
ique, May 28.-Mont Pelee is again in
eruption. Huge, inky black clouds are
rolling over Fort de France in great
masses, in which there are peculiar
lightning flashes. If the demonstra-
ton continues panic is imminent.
The inhabitants are focking into the
great square of the town. - NJ
heavy surf has been beating on
the shore for the last two hours and
an enormous, greyish yellow cloud, at
a great height, is dimly visible in the
direction of Mont Pelee ~
The night is intensely dark and the
stars are only family visible ~' -
Fort de France is in no danger from
the volcano, but there is considerable
apprehension of panic in the night
time, should the greyish yellow cloud
reach here and the ashes and stones
begin to fall
There are no noises from the volcano
at present. 'E .

AIDING THE SUGAR. TRUST.
Charge Made Against Several Western
Railroads. ~.~'

Chicago, May 2S.-Some of the
Western railroads are accused of help
ing the American Sugar Refining com.
pany, commonly called the sugar trust,
in its effort to kill the beet sugar sin-
dustry in Nebraska and Colorado,
says The Inter-Ocean.
The Rock Island, Missouri Pacific
and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
railroads have joined the Mallory
Steamship line in making a through
rate of 33 cents per 100 pounds on su-
gar from New York, via Galveston, to
Kansas City, ST. Joseph, Omaha and
= Lincoln, Neb. On this rate the So
called sugar trust has just shipped
into Missouri river territory 200 car
loads of sugar, aggregating 100000
pounds. The result is that this sugar
is put in that market at lower figure
than the beet sugar growers of Nebras-
ka and Colorado can meet and realize
any profit.

FOR TRIPLE MURDER.
William Lane, CoIored, Executed at
PHILADELPHIA.

William Lane, coiored, Executed at
.#1 Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, May 2s.-William Har-
mon Lane, colored, was hanged at
1908 a.. m. 49,. - -.s- -
The crime for which Lane paid the
death penalty, was particularly afro
cious. On the morning of April he
shot and killed Ella Jarden, by whom
he was employed as a servant, and
her two daughters, Madeline, aged IL,
and Eloise, aged years. Lane had
stolen money from his employer and
fearing the consequences of his theft
he deliberately shot the woman and
younger daughter in an upper room
of their home and then called the elder
child from the street, where she had
been playing; and shot and killed her.
After the shooting Lane escaped to
Camden, n. j., but was arrested few
hours later in the railroad station in
that city. He confessed his crime and
after formal hearing was sentenced
to death. Justice was not delayed in
melting out punishment to the negro
and in less than two months after the
commission Of the crime he was exc
cuted.
