LOCATIN IROE BY SCIENCE

There are more ways than one for
detecting the presence of body of
iron ore. One is experience in such
matters and the other is science.
The Cleveland Cliffs Iron company
is bringing the latter to bear on the
Vermilion. Pror. H. l.. Smith, of
Cambridge, Mass, professor of geo.
logy at Harvard college, and J. E.
J opling, of the Clevelatd Cliffs
company. have spent some days on
the Vermillion range, and since
their return to Duluth have been
busy with official data and such
other information in that field.
1t is understood that the services
OF the eminent geologist have been
obtained with view to getting "a
Lincoln additional iron ore deposits
on the Vermilion. The iron forma-
ton is traceable nearly all the way
between Ely and Tower, but explora
tons have been, as rule, discourag O..
ing betwee the two towns. IfProf-
essor Smith can inform the iron ore
people what has become of the ore
which it would naturally seem
ought to lie between the two places
he will have solved one of the most
interesting questions that puzzles
them now. The Cleveland Cliffs
Iron company is new conner in
Minnesota as far as acquiring iron
properties is concerned, but it is a
pioneer in the Lake Superior region.

The Virginia enterprise. [volume] (Virginia, St. Louis County, Minn.) 1893-19??, 1902-09-19

It is an extensive concern. The
company practically dates from
1916, when it sent representative
into the then unknown iron country
of this region and then secured
what is now known as the Cleveland
mine, on the Marquette range. 1t
was the second mine to be located
and the first to ship ore. The
Cleveland Cliffs Iron company is
considered one of the most liberal
and enterprising in its line
of business. The company is
conducting extensive operations on
the Mesaba range, and evidently
has an eye to the Vermilion. It
was reported some time ago that it
was figuring on leasing the famous
section 30.-News Tribune.
The state game warden should be
gin an education of those who go
into the woods to hunt deer. There
should be primer class to impress
upon the minds of these hunters
the difference between deer and a
man. Every hunter securing
license should be given a little
work upon "The Fools Who Go Into
the Woods After Deer" Every pro-
curer of a license should be obliged
to read it, and if he cannot read
should have it read to him. This
pamphlet should endevor to impress
upon the mind of the hunter that it
is dangerous to shoot at shadows
and noises; that human life is more
valuable than that of game, or that
it is supposed to be; that of all the
fools the fool hunter is the
biggest. 1t should request the
hunter to see clearly the object he
fires at before he pulls the trigger;
to take the cartridges out of his gnn
before going into camp, and to put
no loads in until he is we'll away
from others of his party. It should
instruct man who is shot at and
not mortally hit to Immediately fire
back and endeavor to do his utmost
to kill the fool who shot at him. A
premium should be paid for every
fool hunter so hit. AS for the cow
ards who hit and, wound a man and
then 60 off and leave him to die
alone in the woods, they should be
hung. Such men are too mean to
waste money on feeding them.
DO not pay any attention to
smokeless powder or big calibres.
They will do little damage if aimed
only at game. The trees will soon
stop the bullets if they miss or pass
through the deer. It is the fool
who doesn't know what he is shoot
ing at who does the mischief.

Plea for old Confederates.

When the House, Jan. 18th, resumed
consideration of the pensions appro-
priations bill, MI Gardner of Michi-
gan, reverting to the speech of Mr..
Rixes the day before in favor of open
ing the doors of national soldiers homes
to former Cnofederates, said he approx
ed the suggestion. AS former Union
soldier he sympathized with the spirit
that sought to take care of our own,
and predicted that the time would come,
and at no distant day, when the homes for
disabled veterans, built and maintain
ed by the common government, would
be opened alike to the needy soldiers
whether Of the Union or Confederacy.
His expression Of the sentiment that
it was better to care for the destitute
living than for the graves of the dead
immortal though they might be, was
greeted with round of applause on the
Democratic side. He spoke of the better
feeling engendered between the sections
by the Spanish war, and said that since
then whatever difference existed among
the people of the country had ceased to
exist as sectional differences, and notice
had been served on the civilized world
that III any future war with the United
States the whole country must be reck-
oned with

The Cost of Free Text Books.

''The cost of providing free text books
for the use Of the pupils in the public
schools of Maine" remarked State Su-
perlntendent Stetson ON Saturday, ''av-
erages about ninety eight cents a year
per pupil. In 1900 there were 139, 900
pupils enrolled in the State and the av-
erage attendance was 100000. The
State law compels towns to furnish
text books free. The total cost there
fore, last year was about $1OO, 900 which
was paid by the towns. The State fur
nlshes text books only to the pupils in
unncorporated places" Mr. Stetson's
attention had been called to state
ment in a Western paper that it will
cost the State of Kansas this year at
least 100000 to provide text books
for its pupils. The number of pupils in
Kansas this year is estimated at 400, OOO
The cost of complete set of books now
in use there is approximately five dol
lars. 1t will be seen by Mr.. Stetson's
statement that the cost of text books
in Maine is only one-ffth of that re-
quired in Kansas, and Maine schools
are leaders in the country

A Shoemaker Ball in Bangor.

BANGOR, Me-, Jan. Is. OF fun and
good music there was no lack at the
annual ball of the Shoemakers' mutual
benevolent association in city hall this
evening. The attendance was very
large. The concert was participated in
by an orchestra of Is musicians, directed
by Mr. II. M. Pullen, with Charles l.
Haynes tenor, and the shoemakers' cho-
rus.
The contests between the lacers and
the leather cutters were highly inter
esting. The leather cutting contest
was participated in by Messrs. Ham
mond, Veilleux, Douglass and Currier,
and G. D. Goodwin acted as referee.
The shoe lacing contest was participat-
ed in by Misses Helena l Golden,
Frances L. Carr, Ida F. Sweeney and
Christina F. Carr, with A. J. Earring
ton as referee.
The shoemakers' male chorus sang
''The Hayseed Invasion" and the com
bined choruses were heard in two selec
tions, Il Want to be Military Man
and "Ma Ebony Belle" Mr.. Haynes
sang 'In the Shade Of the Palm,' and
also directed the orchestra in the play
ing Of the march, "Old Jed Prouty."
After the concert dancing began and
continued until late hour. John L.

MAINE G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT
Will Meet in Augusta Next Month.
posed Consolidation of Posts.

Grand Army men all over the State
are looking forward with pleasant eX-
pectations to the annual encampment,
which is to be held in Augusta Thurs
day and Friday, Feb. Is and IA. The
year just closed has been very sue
cessful one for the order and the Au-
gusta comrades are making plans to re-
ceive about 500 comrades. The leading
feature will be the official visit OF the
commander-in-c chief, Judge Eli Terrace
of Minneapolis, who will be present at
the exercises of the second day.
Usually there is quite an animated
discussion for months before the gath
ering in regard to the election of depart
ment commander, but this year it is
understood that the posts generally
have been notified of the presence of
but one candidate in the field, James l..
Merrick of Waterville. Maj. Merrck
was a candidate a year ago, being de-
feated by the present department com
mander Maj. William Z. Clayton of
Bangor. It's regarded AS probable that
Maj. Merrick will be elected, although
there is generally some candidate put
forward for another year. Among the
possible CO ndidates mentioned is John
7. SWasey of Oxford county, who, it he
should enter the lists, would have con
siderable strength behind him from
Cumberland and Oxford counties.
A recommendation of considerable
Importance will be advanced by Maj.
Clayton in his report. He will urge
the consolidation of posts, as it is
realized that the time is rapidly coming
when it will be difficult for the smaller
posts to maintain their organization
for lack of numbers. Maj Clayton be
lieves that this difficulty should be met
in time and in such a way that the
smaller posts will not be obliged to give
| up their CHARTERS. This he would man
age by arranging some system, of sub
posts where camp fire could OCCASION
ally be held. The Herman post, for
instance, furnishes an example. The
post there is very small; in fact, so
small that it has been very difficult to
get a quorum the past year. Maj.
Clayton would consolidate the Herman
post with one of the Bangor posts,
making the Hermon post sub-post
! and holding meetings there occasional
ly.

A Race to Buenos Ayres.

The Boston bark Thomas A. Goddard,
Capt. Newcomb, and the British bark
Landskrona, Capt. Burgess, sailed from
Boston January 18th, on their voyage
to Buenos Ayres. The Goddard was
the first to get away and was followed
about three hours later by the British
vessel. Both vessels loaded cargoes of
lumber at Mystic wharf, the Lands
krona having 1,192,O2s feet of spruce
and pine in the hold and on deck, while
the Goddard, which is much smaller
craft, is loaded with less than SOC, 1000
feet. An interesting race between the
two vessels is now on, and the captains
of both will exert all their skill and sea-
manship to reach the goal first. There
is said to be good-sized wager on the
result of the race and the outcome will
