These Local Whlr!winds, Of great en-

the funnel-shaped c.oad that passes
along at the rate Of from say 20 TO 40
miles an hour, with deafeniug roar

there are many descriptive accounts

One observation has led scientists 10
think that there is in the center of

Our at-grandmothers were very
busy damsels and danes The spin
ming wheel was no ornament. but a
very serious matter Of daily life
They made the machine spin by the
hour while they reeled off the thread
that they were to knit or weave
The well educated woman Of those
years was spinner. weaver. dyer
and tailor all combined in one. I
wonder how many Of their fair de-
seendants can emulate them in these
lines?
Nevertheless they have brought
about fourishing manufacture OF
antique wheels, and many OF the or
CARNATIONS have adopted the wheel
With or without the distafr and
treadle as a club badge or a coat
of-arms for their club paper.
In the finishing of the modern
stage the humble spinning wheel
holds a prominent part. 1t would
be difficult to give Faust" without
one in the center of the stage. where
poor Marguerite sings, smiles. hopes

important than the melancholy COW

One of the oldest things about the

the average owner never takes the
trouble to learn how. to work the
machine. She plies it in both direc-
tions. leaves off the connecting cord
and even goes so far as TO decorate
ii with ribbons in way which
would prevent il ever being put to
practical use.

DOWN THE VALLEY
Milwaukee = Missouri Pacific Is
T. Talked Of.
THE TWIN CITIES TO THE GULF
A Union of Interests in Which
There Would Be Great
Strength.

Chicago, Aug. 4.-Interest in the future
of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paui
road has continued to grow In the last few
weeks. Rumors of the merger OF TINS
system With others have been frequent
and to add to the interest the stocks OF
the st. Paul have continued to show that
some one has very good opinion of their
value. -; -
This system of more than 5000 miles of
track, covering the territory between the
west shore OF Lake Michigan and the
Missouri river with four parallel and
cross-section lines and with one line
branching off from the Mississippi just
above Davenport to Kansas City, was con-
sidered a desirable property by J. }. Hill
and hiss associates when the Northern
merger scheme was being formulated:
There are indications of activity on the
part of the Missouri Pacific lines in the
west and south that have caused that sys-
tenn and the Milwaukee to be consid-
cred in the same connection. The re-
cent purchase of the larger interest In the
company controlling the proposed belt line
at Memphis by George Gould is one OF
these. Memphis is the one city on the
Mississippi river between st. Louis and
New Orleans that is recognized as the
gateway to most important business-pro-
ducing territory. The rivalry for the
command of that trade has been sharp.
The Missouri Pacific has been as ener-
getic in getting good positions in other
parts of, the territory in the south. and
west as at Memphis. 1t has no lines
to the northwestern states. but it has the
southwestern territory we'll covered and
it connects with the Milwaukee at Omaha
and at Kansas City. ....
The theory that there is impending a
closer union between these two systems
is supported by the fact that each would
supplement the other in the territory
where strength is needed. With the two
combined the consolidated system would
connect the, states of the Mississippi val
ley from its source to its mouth and give
one Of the most direct lines from the
eastern part of the Dakotas to the gull
that is to- be found. This north and
south line would be considerably short
ened and Strengthened by the completion
of some of the connecting links which are
now under construction.
The Illinois Centrars line east Of the
Mississippi river and it's success from a
business point of view is in favor of such
combination. There has been no such
line along the Missouri river and west Of
the Mississippi, however.
The lines Of the Milwaukee and o1
| the Missouri Pacific would give direct
route from Dakota to Galveston and New
Orleans. f. >.'..'

CAPITAL CULLINGS

The latest political rumor has it that Sena-
tor Hanna is to retire from his position as
chairman of the republican national commit
tee in 1904 and that: both he and President
Roosevelt are anxious that the new chairman
be Governor Crane of Massachusetts, 1t Is
further said that Crane will enter the Roose-
velt cabinet in March, 1905.
The state department is about to let the
contract for the making Of a new great seal
OF the United States, 1.-The present one being
much worn and defaeed. through long use.
In the entire. history of the United States
there have been only three great seals. The
first one was cut in 1882, the second in 1S41
and the one now in use in 1885.
Representative Barney of Wisconsin tells
his friends in Washington that Senator Spoo-
ner will in all probability succeed himself
He says that four-tifthsS Of the delegates to
the recent state convention were Spooner
men, notwithstanding what was done in the
platform, and that popular sentiment in the
state is almost unanimous for his return.
Representative Joseph W. Babcock has just
bought the house in which Senator John J.
Ir gals lived while a member of the senate.
The price was $4,000. Babcock began life as
a lunberjack. He was advanced to have
charge of a gang of a dozen jacks; then was
made foreman in mill, and, then superin-
tendent; then was given a working interest
and so on up. Everything he handled seemed
to make money, and now he is rated as
suspected Of senatorial and social aspirations
