Mr.. Whitney's interest in the turf Is
comparatively recent. He did not turn
TO this sport until after he had finished
making money, and he has achieved
pretty fair results. He owns one of the
finest stock farms in the world and
some of the greatest aristocrats Of the
turf. At the head Of the establishment
is the lordly Hamburg, for which he
paid $4,000, and he gave $4,000 for
Jean Beraud. Among the brood mares
are a dozen Of the finest that money
could procure.

tiers which he maintains at Aiken, S. c.,

with an American mount and one of

not taking active measures, although
Foreign Secretary Lansdowne intends
to circulate pour parlers. looking to
joint action from Washington, London
and TOKYO, provided further informa-
ton sustains the present abstract of
the Russian demands.
The Associated Press is authorized
by the foreign office to state that if the
Chinese government correctly repre-
sents Russia's claims, these claims con-
stitute an absolute breach of all the nm
dertakings given in connection with
Manchuria and utterly abrogate the
principles of the open door, territorial
division and international comfy to
which the British government has com.
mitted itself. 1t is added that in these
principles Great Britain has always
acted with the United Staes, and it is
presumed that and it is presumed that
similar feelings exist in Washington.
Nothing, however, is definitely known,
as with the exception of the British
minister to China no British ambassa-
dor has yet reported.
Ii is pointed out that Russia's ex-
PLANTATION may throw different light
on her demands, although in official
circles here there is a frank expression
of the belief that Russia has no inten.
ton of evacuating Msnchuria, and that
she hopes. after demanding the maxi.

They call him rich, yet there he stands

The people call him rich; his gold
Is piled in many a yellow heap,
But he il all alone and old.
And when he dies no one will weep.
They call him rich. but where he dwells
The floors are bare, the walls are

They call him rich: he buys and sells.
But no fond fingers stroke his cheek.
They call him rich; he does not know

Sweet winds across the meadows blow
And toss the verdant pillows there.

BLASTED INTO ETERNITY.

NJ nday forenoon two miners were
at work in the Crystal Falls mine
They had finished drilling their holes
and charged one Of them with fifteen
sticks of dynamite. They then pro
ceeded to "tamp" the powder In the
usual way so as 20 make it lirm in the
hole and cause IL to lift. They used
the little pump, which they had TO
clear their hole OF water, as rod to
tamp the dynaypite with. One Of
them. Louis AIneta, was standing
over the hole pounding on the dyna.
mite with the pump when he must
have, in some way, struck the ex-
ploder which was in one OF the stick
OF powder causing the whole charge TO
explode. The man was instantly
killed while his partner, a man named
VIM Griglock was severely hurt about
the eyes.
The accident happened about II 80
as the miners were preparing TO blast
before the dinner hour. The dead man
WAS married but his wife lives In the
old country. He was buried from his
boarding place at the Great Western
on Tuesday.

Captain G. t. Roberts. who is the
only one operating in the New Wiecon-
sin district that has opened any ore
with a shaft. was in Crystal Falls the
other day looking after the properties
OF the Harvester people in this vicin-
ity. When asked about the new dis.
trict he grew eloquent and gave it as
his opinion that il is a very important
range and that the total amount Of
ore will aggregate lOO 600, 900 tons.
The Harvester people, with whom the
Captain is now engaged has the major
portion Of the holdings on the range
but there are other interests there that
have made important finds of late.
All other work is being done with
drills. The Harvester people have five
diamond drills and three churn drills
at work.
The fact that no shafts are being
sunk on the range was mentioned to
tire Captain and be as asked why 1t is
that. if the drills are showing up so

Well replied the Captain, the
district is new one. There is q
sandstone capping that carries an inn
mense amount of water. In fact il is
an unknown quantity, what amount
of water is carried in this sandstone
This water is a problem that those
interested ON the range wisn TO see
worked upon before attempting any
thing themselves. They are all wait

going to fool them. I'm not going to
tap it, not for long time at least. If
those fellows want to learn of that
feature they will have to &C quire their
knowledge from experience.
Mr.. Roberts had great deal of ex-
perience with the water before he got
his shaft down. He lost very expensive

Proportion Equal to Tha. OF
any Other Mining Locality.

While so ms ~ IS being said about
the numerouJhnds on the Mesabi and
the lack Of new finds on the old
ranges. il Is in order 20 call attention
to tiis fact that Iron County has shown
up pumfsr Of new mines during the
last expl3rSiory regime and that IN
proprotion. It has shown up more
than any other region of rs size. bar
ring, perhaps. the Mesahi. Four brand
now mines have been proved mp in
Iron county and they are all good
ones. They are the Baltic, Caspian,
Tobin and Lot g. The first two are
in the Stambaugh district and the
last two in the Crystal Falls district.
The Caspian and Lot 3 are not yet
shippers but ore could be sent forward
today If necessary The two Iron
! River properties are properties Of the
fickands- Mather interets, the Tobin
is a Corrign Mckinney property and
Lot 3 belongs to the Harvester people.
All Of these mines have been dis
covered within the last five years. The
Baltic deposit was farthest away from
any proved deposit. 1t was located
with test pits and diamond drill, the
test pit work having been carried on
to quit depth when the drill was
put in to show up the ore deposit.
The Caspian in diamond drill pro-

The Tobin had been test pitted years

Part of the board favored splitting

lowest bidder on material and the
lowest on labor and let the contract to
them. If this should be done James
b. Glow would get the material part
and Mr. Afford the labor Others
favored the giving of the contract to
the person having the lowest bid in
for both labor and material and if
this was done Mr.. Fitzpatrick would
have it. Two members favored the
first disposition and two the second
and the board was deadlocked. There
is vacancy on the board which has
not yet been filled and as neither side

1t was finally decided TO refer the
matter to the council and see if the
city has money enough to pay for the
work before quarreling over the matter

referred TO the council.

Every provision OF the act. except the
section pertaining TO the naturalization

upon its approval by the President
One OF the most important effects of
the new law is found in the application
Of the various provisions 70 all the in
suIar possessions Of the United States.
Heretofore there has been some con
fusion and a decided lack OF uniformity
in the administration Of the immigra-
ton laws IN Hawaii. Guam, the Philip
pines and Porto Rico. The immigration
laws as a whole did not apply 10 any of
the island possessions except Hawaii.
and not in Hawaii until the territorial
act was passed.
The fact that the new law applies 20
all OF the insUlar possessions In its en-
tirety will have the effect OF greatly ex-
tending the work of the immigration.
