Newcomer in Society Who Got Mixed
Up with Persons Of
Title.


Mrs. Porkdollars has not as yet got over
the novelty of riches. At the same time
she is not inclined to admit this, and it ia
her great desire, relates London Answers,
that the society with which she is now
entitled to reix by virtue of her hus-
bands wealth shall think she was born
in the purple.
Recently she was at big dfnner party.
and as she was being pi1oted from draw
ing-room to dining-room, she noticed a
marble bust on one of the pillars in the
hall.
''Do you know who that is?" she in
quired of her cavalier.
That is Marcus Aurelius," was the an
swer.
"Oh, is it, now?" calculated the LADY.
But can you tell me" she added prompt

the late marks! / do get 60 mixed up

ION all sides of Duluth. in all parts

Prospects of Trouble.

Information received recently re-
latiye to the recent conference of ore
men n this city. developes the fact
that there are strong prospects of
trouble ahead before the prices for
the coming season are adjusted. The
Bessemer association that has con-
trolled prices with great unanimity
for years has now encounte. ed con-
ditions that appear insurmountable.
The leading interests are holding for
maintenance of rates, as with them
it is largely matter of bookkeeping.
They are both producers and con-
sumers, but they prefer the high
rates, for the reason that it enables
them to figure profits of pig iron
down to cost and still make hand
some profit on the ore. On the other
hand the small producer, selling to
the independent furnaces, fears that
he will find his market taken from
him if lie cannot quote rates upon
which the consumer can hold up
against the southern furnaces and
the larger interests in northern irons.
The meeting OF the ore producers
further developed the fact that the
amount of ore to be brought down
this year would represent a greater
curtailment than has been anticipat-
ed. 1t is stated that the amount
brought down the lakes this season
will not be over l5,000,0 900 tons, as
compared %, ,5O0.0 900 for 1903 and 81
900, Oo9 for 1902 This will present a
curtailment Of go per cent and will
be a serious matter for the transport
alton interests 10 entertain. On the
matter Of rates another meeting is to
be held before navigation opens but
there is little prospect that the as
soclation will be able to reach an
agreement, and the prospects are
that for the first time in years the
function OF the Bessemer association
will be attered.-Cleveland Com

that the output will be large. Vir-
