b,ssemer ore are going full blast. but the
production Of non-b,es smer has been 20
great In the past year that the corporation
was forced to curtail operations. An ofaoer
Of the corporation explained the matter
yesterday by saying:
we were able to produce a surplus
Of non-bessemer ore this year, and SO We
have curtailed operations for the present.
There are several thousand men employed
on each range, and the temporary idleness
Of from 800 TO 500 ought not to cause much
comment. Some Of our furnaces are shut
down and 30 We wont keep on mining till
we need the ore.
"Have the antics of Sam Parks, the walk

that tends to tie up building operations

James Gayley, first vice-president Of
the corporation, has returned from spend
ing three weeks at Sylvania Lodge, on a
hunting preserve near Intersweet, on the

that he was up there to consult with mining
captains. but In answer to questions he
said: ..

In ten States, In several Of the Canadian

Of construction or projected for the near

The Cuban league against tuberculosis b
carrying on one Of the most active Of cam
paigns against the disease. Tho league
will hold it's third annual meeting on Oct.

Havana.
In eight States, Maryland, Rhode Island
Minnesota, Wisconsin, California, New Jer-
sey, Pennsylvania and Illinois. and the Dis
trict OF Columbia, sanatoria are now being
built Or are projected, to cost from $4,000
the work is being largely undertaken by
State commissions. In others by private
organizations.
One Of the experiments that has proved
most successful Ia that being tried In Phila-
delphia OF treating tuberculosis Cases upon
a roof garden. Valuable work Is being
done in Boston, where complete study Is
to be made OF every house In which patients
live or have lived since May, 1900.
In this city the work Is greatly handi-
capped by the immense and ignorant popu-
lation, the tenements and inadequate hos
pitfalls and dispensary facilities. The Board
OF Health, the Department Of Public Chart
ties the Tenement House Commission and
the Charity Organization Society are to-
gether trying to solve the problem. A
part Of the new work planned FOR the COM
Ing year includes inquiries into excess
sively high death rates in certain sections Of
the city, the reporting Of cases by phys-
clans to the Board Of Health, and the pre-
vert'o OF the regular recurrence Ct tuber-

It is believed that Archbishop Ireland

Many stories have been told OF Arch
bishop Ireland's hat. He is known for his
broad-brimmed black headgear, and the
last six months, and will probably wear for
the next six years, is Of that type. although
not quite so expansive as his own.
Speaking OF hats suggested Cardinal
Gibbons's announcement that another red

concerning the rumor that II Is to 90 to the
