railroad has been practically wound up The
line has probably been the largest exclusive
logging road in the north country, and it is
figured that since it's construction more than
billion feet Of white pine has been transported
over it for manufacture at the company's mills
on the Menominee river
During the past year only about two-and-a-
half million feet of timber has been cut in
the territory served by the line, practically
cleaning up the companys pine holdings, and
the road is now being dismantled.
The line extended from Pembine, Wis, west
ward about forty miles, and with the various
branches had total trackage of about eighty
miles. Recently two locomotives, seventy log
ging cars and twenty miles of steel We're shipped
there, and thirty have been purchased by
the :Escanaba & Lake Superior line, operating
in Delta, Marquette and Dickinson counties.

Deadwood. S. D., Dec. 25.-A conference
of the principal owners in the Golden Re-
ward Mining company was recently held
in New York, and Harris Franklin, man
ager, has just returned. At this confer
ence Mr. Franklin submitted his resgna-
tion as general manager and insisted upon
it's acceptance explaining that he in
tended to spend much of his time away
from Deadwood in the future and it would
therefore be impossible for him to de-
vote his personal attention to the business
as heretofore. The resignatio was ac-
cordingly accepted, to take effect as soon
as his successor can be decided upon.
The company has fully decided to re-
sumo operations at the smelter In Dead
wood where work has been suspended
since last March, when walkout of en-
ployes occurred. The resumption will not
come, however. until the new general
manager has taken over the affairs of the
company. 1t is estimated that six weeks
will be necessary to unwater the princi-
pal Golden Reward mines, which have
been allowed to fill up since the smelter
closed down.
LEAD, S. D.-There are again rumors of
a disturbed condition Of the affairs of the
Horseshoe Mining company. 1t is re-
ported that the December pay checks for
the employees were for only part of the
wages coming, owing to lack of funds.
1t is difficult to tell what the result will
be, but there is talk among some Of the
employees Of filing liens upon the mill,
bullion and ore. This, it is said, fully in
sure the workmen against any loss.

Mining and Milling company has arrived

The Merrall stamps are something new

They are not different from the ordinary

charge is obtained, there being a dis

stamp is fed by itself from it's separate

greatly increased.
Where these stamps are in use it is
found by proper feeding that they will

Mr.. Conzett expects to be able to trea
forty tons a day with the six stamps to be

signed originally to be used back Of tht

Was Prophet Of Evil.

Prof Rudolph Falb OF Vienna is
dead. He had remarkable career.
He earned an enviable reputation
in the scientific world as a meteorol-
ogist. He wrote on the subject with
care, learning and authority In his
later years, however, he was largely
diseredited among scientific men be-
cause he became possessed Of the idea
that he could foretell the occurrence
Of earthquakes. Some Of his guesses
hit the mark, which only added to the
suffering he caused BY erroneous pre-
dictions.
In 1898 he predicted that the island
OF Zante, off the west coest Of Greece.
was about to be shaken by a severe
earthquake. The prediction came
true, and so did his prophecy of an
earthquake on the mainland Of Greece
in 1894.
1t was natural, therefore. that when
he said Athens would be terribly
shaken on the approaching May the
people of that city should be thrown
into great CONSERVATION. Thousands

Of them fed from the city, many talk
ing refuge on ships at the Piraeus.
Nobody slept in Athens the night
before the predicted earthquake, and
thousands spent the hours of darkness
in open places around the city. May
5 was a beautiful day, and there was
nothing to mar it except the distress
and discomfort caused by the earth.
quake prophet
In the following year Falb predict
ed an earthquake for a certain day in
Chile, and the people of Santiago were
thrown into great excitement Every
railroad car that could be mustered
into service was busy for a day or two
carrying refugees away from the city.
There was no earthquake, but the
misery and loss inflicted by Falbis
prediction we're considerable.
Very little has been heard Of Falb
since that time. His seems to have
been a case of scientific man gone
wrong. After the fever Of earthquake
prophecy seized him he never added
anything to the work that had given
him respectable standing.

Reeovers From LockIa,u.

Members of the medical profession
in New York are greatly interested
in the case of a Patchogue young man
named Henry Price, who has survived
one Of the worst attacks Of lockjaw
that the local physicians have ever
treated. The recovery of Price is at
tributed to the use Of anti-toxin. S1OO
worth having been forwarded from
Albany for the use Of the local sur
geon, DR.. M. B. Davis, when the case
was reported about a week ago.
Price is now able to sit up in bed
and to move his mouth and arms, and
1t is thought that in short time he
will completely recover DR.. Davis
contends that this case is one of the
most remarkable ever heard of and
he has sent history Of it to various
prominent surgeons and medical jour
nails.
