west. The first newspaper in Iowa
was the Visitor, established at Du-
buque on May IL, 1896, by John King.
Its name was changed to the Iowa
News, and the press which printed 1t
was removed to Lancaster, wis, in
1912, where the Grant County Herald
was established, the first newspaper in
that State. The press and material
were moved again in 1Si9 to ST. Paul
by ox-tcam, and John Goodhue used
them in getting out the first issue of
the first newspaper published in Min
nesota, the st. Paul Pioneer. In 1853
the old press was taken to Sioux City
Falls, now Sioux Falls, where it was
used for the printing of the Dacotah
Democrat, the first newspaper in either
of the Dakotas. The press was burned
by the Indians in the uprising of 1862.
Mr.. Mckenzie has thrown special
enthusiasm into his work, due to the
fact that he is himself Journalist. He
served his apprenticeship in ST. Paul,
and afterward was employed as a
special writer on some of the leading
dailies of Chicago. Then he came
East, and early in 1898 was appointed
to his present position in the Library
Of Congress. New York Post.

woman's Bolero waist.

The bolero waist Is n marked favor
lite of fashion, and is shown in many
of the advance styles. The smart May
Manton model shown i'll the large
drawing is admirable in many ways,
and is adapted to variety of mate
rials. The bolero, having no collar,
makes it peculiarly desirable for wear
beneath a wrap, while Mt the same
time it gives sufficient of the jacket
suggestion to be suited to street cos
tunes designed for spring. AS shown
it makes part Of a costume of satin
faced cloth in sage green, with the full
waist of Liberty satin in a lighter
shade of the same color, the trimming
being folds of the satin, cross-stitched

in one. The full front and back of the

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.


r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review OF
Trade says: Little of novel nature has
developed In the business or financial
situation during the past week. Condi-
tons OF the preceding week were ac-
centuated as rule, active manufactur-
ing plants becoming still more busily
engaged, while the downward tenden-
cy of prices was not checked. Retail
trade is of immense volume and job
bers have immense Spring orders to
fill.
Conditions in the iron and steel in
dustry are shown by record-breaking
production at many plants and rapid
increase of facilities at others.
Failures for the week numbered 3oL
in the United States, against 600 last
year, and 28 in Canada, against DO last
year.
"Bradstreet's' says: Wheat, includ-
ing flour, exports for the week aggre-
gate 3,63o,67o bushels, as against 1900,
2o2 last week and 4,S3867S in this week
last year. Wheat exports July I, 1901,
TO date (3o weeks) aggregate I6I,644,
Is2 bushels, as against III,oo2,372 last

bushels, as against 2oS,oo3 last week

A French Prison Ship.

AS interesting a steamship as ever
visited this port left at the end of the
week, loaded with coal, for Bordeaux.
She was the French prison boat Gale
donie, and she had come to Philadel.
phla from Cayenne, where she had
landed 600 convicts.
The cells of the Caledonia are in tiers
on her main deck, quite comfortable
apartments, twelve by fifteen feet in
size, and each containing a cot,
washstand and chair. Each also con-
talns coil of steam pipe so arranged
that at the first sign of any refractorl-
ness steam may be sprayed into every
nook and Granny, and the inmates in
stantly scalded into submission. There
has never been among the Caledonie's
prisoners any occasion for the use of
this dreadful weapon, but once, some
Eyears ago, the ship was attacked on
her arrival al Cayenne by the convicts
quartered there. Forthwith hose was
attached to the main boiler, a donkey
engine brought into use, and the at
lacking party was saluted with great
streams of water which was not boil
ing Qor the captain was merciful
mani. but which was nevertheless un-
comfortably warm. A few drops apiece
were enough and with yells of pain
the band of criminals fed in all di-
directions. s.-Philadelphla Record.

ANGUS THE LOVER.



I follow the silver spears flung from the
hands of dawn;
Through silence, through singing of stars,
| journey on and on:
The scattered fires of the sun, blown wide
ere the day be done,
Scorch me hurrying after the swift white
feet of my fawn.
I am Angus the Lover. who haste in the
track of the wind,
The tameless tempest before, the dusk OF
quiet behind:
From the heart of blue gulf hurled,
rise on the waves of the world,
Seeking the love that allures, woful until
l find.
The blossom of beauty is she, glad, bright
as q shaft of flame.
a burning arrow of life winging me JOY
and shame;
The hollow deeps Of the sky are dumb to
my searching cry,
Rending the peace Of the gods with the
melody of her name.
MY quest is by lonely ways--in the cairns
of the mighty dead,
On the high lorn peaks Of snow--panting
to hear her tread,
AT the edge of the rainbow well whose
whispering waters tell
OF face bent over the rim, rose-pale, and
as roses red.
Thus she ever escapes me-a wisp of cloud
in the air,
A streak of delicate moonshiue, q glory
from otherwhere
Yet out in the vibrant space 1 shall kiss
the rose in her face
Z shall bind her fast to my side with a
- strand of her fying hair.

Tiny Jets For Lattice Centres.

The evening gown of black lace or
dotted Brussels net is treated with
paneling of embroidery. The panels
are of white satin yelled with Chan
tilly lace medalllons. Although the
medallions are not large in size they
are enhanced by edges of baby vel-

intervals here and there the ribbons
are Joined with small jet ornaments,

usual mad rush for seats followed.
After the car was crowded to the rail
ing an elderly woman, large of person
and heavily laden with bundles,
emerged from the crowd. She was
red in the face and putting with her
eXertions as she fastened toward the
car, waving her bundles vigorously
TO attract the attention of the con-
ductor, and emitting short, sharp
shrieks intended to signify that she
desired the car to wait for her.
But the conductor stolidly pulled the
cord, and just as the weary woman
reached the steps the car moved away.
On the platform the conductor stood
with folded arms and smiled calmly
back at her.
For moment she stood gasplng with

When asked what class of periodicals
had made the most remarkable growth,

factory answer could be given TO that
question because it was impossible to
draw lines between groups which none
could be sure of remaining for any
length of time as drawn. "Classifica-
tion," said he. gets to be more difficult
every year as the periodicals become
more specialized. What Is classified
one year under the general term 'agrl-
cultural may the next year be placed
under sports, or horticultural or bee
raising, or turf or poultry farming.
What in 1870 is covered by the general
term SPORTS in 1890 Is specialized into
field and track fishing and hunting,
football the ring bicycling rae
ing etc. The trade and technical jour
nails of the country have in the last
ten years become highly specialized,
so that 1t requires hundred or more
headings under which to arrange
them"
In the preface already mentioned,
Mr.. Mckenzie has given the history
of the printing-press, of stereotyping
of the telegraph in its relation to the
newspaper business. of lithography, of
paper-mllls, and of copyright. He gives
list of the oldest newspapers in the
country with the date of the establish
ment of each, and n list OF periodicals
published in foreign languages, from
which II appears that the Italians have
thlrty-fve, the Norwelgans sixty-seven,
the Poles thirty-nine, the Swedes sixty
four, the Germans 651, and the French
forty-nine. He also discusses agrlcul-
tural, religious, college and educa-
tional, law. and sporting journals.

Lace as Hat trimming.

The almost universal adoption OF
lace for at least a part of the hat
trimming has led milliners to button
hole the design in gulpure lace with
gold thread, and apply medallions of
decorated muslin or flower petals to
Chantilly and other laces cf thinner
texture, in order to obtain new effects.
