SEES IRON A PRECIOUS METAL
Exhaustion of Present Ore Fields Pre-
dicted by Scientist.

dicted by Scientist.
Iron as a precious metal is a pos
sibility indicated by Prof. Tornebaum
of the Swedish geological survey. He
predicts that the ore fields of the
present large producing countries
namely: North America Great Brit
ain, and Germany-will be exhausted
within one or two centuries and the
high grade ores much earlier The
future center of the iron industry will
as now, be located where natural fuel
abounds, since the ore travels to the
coal, and not vice versa. AS a con-
sequence Great Britain, where the coal
supply, it is estimated, will be eX-
hausted in $50 years, will thereupon
cease to be an iron producing country.
while in the United States and Ger
many, with their much larger coal
areas, the iron industry will continue,
although being dependent upon i'm
ported ores. For the same reason
north China, where coal and iron are
found associated. is regarded as
promising iron center. Prof. Sjogren
of the same survey declares that
great iron industry depends on other
factors as important as the fuel ques-
ton. OF these factors are the eX-
tent. richness, and purity of the ores,
freight charges for ores, coal. and iron
products, traffic regulations, etc.

land to occupy the executive mansion
at Annapolis. He was elected by a

has occurred in his political career
to warrant any fear for the thirteen

THE FIRST MOUNTAIN RAILROAD

American 1ranscontinental Lines
Were Not the Pioneers.
Uncle Sam perhaps thinks that the
construction of mountain railroads in
their greatest and most comprehen-
sive sense was practically pioneered
by the construction of his own great
transcontinental lines, the Union Pa
cific leading the way. But one Amer
lean engineer notes that he rode over
the railroad from Vienna to Venice,
twothirds of the distance between
New York and Chicago, passing over
several ranges of the Alps, and par
ticularly the Semmering pass, over
a mountain railroad constructed be
tween the years 1S4S and 1854, or
within fifteen or twenty years or the
introduction OF the railway into civil
ization, and twenty years before
Americas first transcontinental rail-
way. Thirty-fve miles over that pass
the Semmering. southwest of Vienna,
was constructed during those years,
having in its length fifteen tunnels
and sixteen viaducts, with maximum
grade of 2h per cent The cost OF
the thirty-fve miles was 100000 per
mile. 1t was built, as was the en-
tire line, from Vienna to Venice. 600
or more miles owned owned and op-
Grated by the Austrian government,
since at that time Venice and that
portion of Italy was under the do
minion of the Austrian and Italian
governments jointly.

Stevens Castle at HObOken, New Jer-
Eey, is veritable ancestral castle ris-
lag from sea of modern dwellings. a
landmark of stability amid change.
The farms of the old New York
families have been changed into city
blocks and their dwellings either torn
down or become tenement houses. But
through all the changes of more than
l century the "Stevenses of Castle
Point" have kept their ancestral
home and, to a large extent, their
wealth
Hoboken was an island lying under
the Jersey heights when Col. John
Stevens bought it at the close Of the
Revolutionary war 1t had formerly
belonged to the New York Bayards,
from whom Bayard street is named,
but the bayards being Tories, their
estates were confiscated. and John

hose days was relative of the Bay
ards who had previously owned the
property, and he built his new castle
on the site Of one which the previous
owners had erected and which had
been burned down by party of
Wings from Hackensack in the trou-
blous days OF the Revolution.
Original Castle Burned Down.
For the HobOken property John
Stevens paid the sum of 100000,

amount in those days. The castle re-

It is directed by chemists of the highest class. The object is to so fix and combine the gases as to carry into the system a powerful tonic-germicide
 Contact with Liquozone kills any form of disease germ, because germs are of vegetable origin. Yet to the body Iiquo- zone is not only harmless, but helpful in the extreme. That is it's main dis tinction. Common gcrmicides are poison when taken internally. That is why medicine has been so helpless in germ disease Lquozone is exhilaratiug, vi talizing, purifying: yet no disease germ can exist in it.
