1t is a marvel of mechanical ingenuity
and engineering skill. In material, de-
sign and construction it is far in advance
of anything that has yet been produced.
The material, manganese steel, is 50 hard
that no burglar could possibly drill il.
This cannot be said ofany other mate
rials used in safe or vault construction,
for tests made upon them under burglar
ious condition show that they can be
drilled with comparative ease.
Reference above is made to steel drills,
but what IS more remarkable, this man
gauese steel will resist the diamond drill,
while other metals, hardened chrome
steel and chilled iron, used in safe con-
struction, can be penetrated with the di-
amond drill.
What is by far the most convincing ev-
idence of the merits of this safe occurred
at the First National Bank, Smitbton,
Pa, on the night of Nov. 10, 1901. Bur-
glars entered this bank and blew open
two vault doors and endeavored to
open the Hibbard Rodman- Ely manga
nese steel safe which was in the vault,
but were completely frustrated.
The United States government used
two of these manganese steel safes TO
protect its gold quartz and precious
stones exhibit at the Pan American ex-
position at Buffalo. The company man
ufacturing the safes had one on exhibit
tion, and the Fidelity Trust Company, of
Buffalo, used one at their an-Amercan
branch for the safe.keeping oftheir funds.
At the Pan-American exposition the
Hibbard- -Rodman- Ely Safe Company re-
ceived the highest award and gold medal
for their burglar-proof manganese steel
safes and vaults.
1t will be well worth the while of all
who are interested in keeping their funds
secure from the expert cracksman TO ex-
anime this safe. MIR. Kelly, cashier, will
be pleased to show you its working and
explain the mechanism.

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION
At MADISON, JULY 18th.

The Republican State Central Com
mi tee met last week and united in
a call for the state convention OF 1902
to be held at Madison OH Wednesday
July 10th. Why the committee de-
cided to have the convention so early
is unexplained. Two or three weeks
later would have been more gener-
ally acceptable, in this section at
least as is learned from conversation
with republicans, irrespective Of fac
only finds fault with the place Sc
lected. They would much prefer
Milwaukee, under the shadows Of
the eleventh story league; but the
people generally will be glad to have
their convention meet rs far as pos
sible from the poisoning influences
of that political upas tree. The cry
TINT the convention cannot be ac-
cuinmodated in Madison is but a
subteriuge, and employed for want
of better argument, or to avoid stat
ing their real ground of objection
the +, muval Of the convention from
the stalwart base of supplies, With
the state buildings at the service Of
the convention, and its many COM
inodious and comfortable hotels and
college boarding houses, usually hay
ing but few patrons in summer Mad
ison is we'll equipped TO provide for
the convention and those who may
attend for the two or three days Of
the session. Railroad connections
with all parts Of the state are direct
and convenient. No place in the
state has more of natures beauties
for summer visitors to enjoy. Hold
ing the convention at Madison is all
right and proper.

PLATTEVILLE MINING NOTES.

The Journal: A car load Ut ore
was sold from the Enterprise mine
fast week at Il good figure. The foun-
dation for the new mill was started
Monday and the work is being super
intended by G, c. Mathi-. This mine
employees a force of about 40 men
and a larger force will be needed
when the new mill is completed.
The most complete mining and
concentrating plant in this district IS
that Of the Trego Zinc Mining COM
pany at their mine about four and a
half miles east of Cuba City. This
plant is capable Of turning out over
40 tons of clean ore IN day. The
equipment is Of the most modern
type and hand labor is eliminated so
far as possible. The ore is dumped
directly from the car into hopper
from which it is fed into jaw crush
er. From here il passes through
rollers then into jigs which remove
all but the iron and sulphur. which
being so near the same specific grav-
ity as jack, cannot be removed by
jigging. The ore Is now thrown into
hopper from which it is automatic
ally fed to the roaster which burns
out the sulphur. From the rooster it
passes on and is spread thinly over a
wide belt which carries the ore un-
der powerful electric magnets ar
ranged 10 cylinders. The particles
Of iron are drawn To the magnets
and these revolving carry t!,e iron to
one size of the belt where it is
scraped III. The ore is now left prac-
tically clean and brings d higher
price in the market.

MONAHaN MAULED At HOME.

In the convention for the election
of delegates to the congressional dis
trict connection, the stalwarts, led
by Collector Monahan and Pc, tmas-
ter Martin sought to control things
and make it appear that republicans
of Lafayette county were opposed
to Governor LaFollette. In this they
were utterly routed. On test votes
LaFolette's friends W found to
be overwhelmingly in a majority.
Every delegate elected to the con-
vention is n pronounced LaFollette
man. There was no contest on con-
gresham, all Of each faction being
for Cooper's denomination. A most
significant thing in the proceedings
was the unanimous adoption of II res
olution highly commendatory of SEN
ator Spooner. Republicans of Lafay-
cite county thus omphatically dis
prove the oft repeated story that
support OF Governor LaFollette
means antagonism of Spooner. II
the charge were true, county
convention of which the Governors
supporters had absolute control 10y
80 majority, would Mt least have been
silent In relation to the Senator
whose interests were no way in.
volved In the business for which the
convention was held This action OF
the Governors friends in Lafayette
county ought to satisfy republicans
of the state that LaFolletto's success
does not necessarily mean Spoouer'
retirement. 1t should also convieuct
people throughout the state of what
has long been known in this section
that Jim Mouahan is not n represent
tativc of Lafayette county He
shou ago way back and sit down
on the rearmost seat.

A WOMAN'S
GAME

When Captain Jabez Bebee Of Mar
blehead launched his new brig. he nam
ed her the Jane Bebee, after his wife,
who had sailed with him for many
VOYAGE and was almost as good sailor
as he was. The first voyage of the
brig was to certain South American
country ruled by q dictator, who car
ried things with high hand for five
or six years and got away with lump
Of money just in time to avoid the revo-
luton that his corrupt practices had
evoked. The craft arrived after fine
run and was waiting to haul in to the
wharf when an official came aboard
and demanded a bonus of $1,000 70.
permission to land cargo. This was in
addition to port charges and customs
dues and was directly from Don Cas-
tro. 1t was blackmail, pure and SIM
pie, and Aunt Jane, as the captains
wife was generally called, looked at it
IN a proper light and said to her hus-
band.
"Jabez Bebee, we won't pay it, and
you tell him so straight from the Shout
der. No, not blessed penay. They
are just trying to bluff us, and we
won't submit. You just run up the
American flag, set the hands to whis-
Ting Yankee Doodle and let this here
don know that the American eagle Is
roosting on the cap OF the mainmast."
The captain braced up and became
defiant, and Don Castro's messenger
was sent away with flea in his ear.
1t was the general opinion that the die
tator would wilt, but the brig was held
at anchor In the harbor for AZ hours on

usually strong speakers from abroad.

sionary in India, and ID. H. w. Boil

THE republican papers OF Green
and la Fayette counties are all anti
LaFollette-all subsidized by official
pap or direct purchase through the
stalwart league-yet III conventions
held in both those counties last week
the supporters OF the governor were
largely in majority, and the stalwart
faction with their suborned editors
were severely sat down on" The

one pretense or another and was for
| hidden to either haul into the wharf or
| sail for another port. Then Jabez Be-
be- went ashore prepared to assert and
| maintain that the government repre-
sented by the eagle would stand no tri-
| fling with one Of its representative citi-
zens, especially one hailing from Mar
blehead and In command of new brig
which had logged off seven knots an
hour with her yards checked In. He
had his thunder duly prepared and his
lightning handy by, but he struck a
snag almost at once. Don Castro was
q man who would not have hesitated
to bluff the combined powers of the
world If there had been $500 in sight
for him. The willy old rascal also
thoroughly understood statecraft and
the number of years that would slip
by while an offended government was
making an official investigation into
any Of his acts, official or private. He
would be out of it long before the state
department at Washington got move
on. and he wasn't worrying as to what
might happen to his successor.
Pay me thousand dollars and you
can discharge cargo was his answer
to Captain Bebee.
Then the captain Of the Jane Bebee
turned the American eagle loose and
encouraged the bird to make things
redhot, but when he had finished and
was wiping the persplration from his
brow the dictator threw one leg over
the arm of his chair and calmly re-
Piled:
Eyes, I've heard of some country or
other called the United States, but it's
one horse affair and no go here. I'd
agree for small sum of ready money
to wipe your country off the face of the
map and not be over two weeks doing
1t either"

On Friday last memorial exercises
we're held at the high school and in
the grades. There were more visitors
at the high school than any exercise
has seen there for long time. Part
| of the G.. A. II. and Relief Corps, to-
gether with number of others, were
present. The program consisted OF
| declamations, by Frank Wedlock and
Roy Reese; recitations, by Misses
| Blewett, Whalen, Arthur and Hutchi-
son; music: vocal, by the Euterpe
club, High School quartette, and the
| school: instrumental, by Misses Del
Ter, Hawkins, Draper, Jones, and
| Nettie and Adele Whalen. The high
school room and stairway were dec
Grated in way that almost made US
imagine ourselves in the new school
house. At the close of the program
| speeches were in order. Members of
the G.. A. r. and Relief Corps re-
| sponded to the call right royalty.
The speech that brought forth the
most hearty applause was the pre-
sentation to the school of new flag
| by the Relief Corps. Each and every
one of the speakers gave the school
house its just censure.
| On such an occasion, there cannot
| but be strain of sadness, as we think
of times that the Boys in Blue endured.
| OF the veterans that visited us last
year, five have gone to rest. What a
| responsibility is on us, we must take
the places of those who with their
lives preserved our Union.
This is examination week, and
every one is hard at work preparing
for them. This is the final, and the
