/. For the transportation of iron ore
from the Mesaba range to Duluth, about
100 large locomotives are in constant
service about eight months Of the year.
Plans have been considered. and est1-
mates made for the substitution Of cleo
tricity for steam on all this work, and
careful estimates show saving on the
amount Of ore now transported annually
t of very large sum. There is no good
reason to doubt that not only will the
bulk Of Messabe and Vermil Lion mines
be served from this power station at
also.
This latter is the most important in

Dam and Canal at Thomson.
Work at the Thomson improvement
will include dam flooding 4S0 acres
j. and with fifteen feet draft. This is
but an enlargement Of a dam now in use.
! From this dam will be canal one and
Of the canal will be channeled in slate,
the rest earth embankment. The rock
sections will be lined with concrete.
The dam may be steel, masonry or con-
crete. The canal will be thirty-two
feet wide at top and will provide for
10000 horsepower.
In general arrangement the wheels will
: be similar to Niagara and the first con-
tracts will call for two or three Of 1880
horsepower, all to be water-balanced
] and with oilthrust bearings. They will
be coupled to internal revolving genera

Madison, Wis, Jan. 1s.-Twelve miles
! north of Madison, in the township Of
Westport, on the main-traveled road
running east and west between Wau-
nakee and Windsor, stands an old,
weather-beaten farmhouse, which was
the childhood home of the celebrated
poetess, Ella Wheeler Wilcox. It was
built in 1852 by the father Of Mrs. Will
cox and is still in the possession Of her
| family.
It is small, humble dwelling, sug-
gestive of pioneer days and poverty.
The architecture is Of the simplest, and
there are no decorations of any kind.
The walls are sadly in need Of paint and
plainly tell the story Of old age.
The surroundings Of the house, how
ever, are pleasant and cheerful. On
the lawn in front, bordering on the
road, is a small grove of fine cedars,
which were infants during Mrs. VIII
must have written many Of her early
poems. On the opposite side Of the
road, farther to the north, is row of
tall cottonwood trees, or Lombardy
poplars, as Mrs. Wilcox calls them, and
beyond these are the farm buildings of
a neighbor.
A furlong OF more'to the south Of the

low hill, which shuts out the view Of
Madison and surroundings. To the
summit Of this hill the poetess used to
climb in the evenings at sunset and turn
her eyes longingly toward the east,
4 the land of her dreams and hopes. She
was exceedingly ambitious, and the
years Of waiting for fame and fortune
seemed long and dreary. Sometimes
she relates in an autobiographical
sketch, she would take an intimate girl
friend Of hers to the hilltop and would
tell her Of her intense yearning and
Inspirations.
Firss Home at Johnstown.
/ Ella Wheeler Wilcox was born at
|Johnstown, little village in Rock coun
#|ty, Wisconsin, in 1850. Her parents
MI. and Mrs. Wheeler, were very poor
and had left their New England home
i in the hope Of mending their fortune
4 The father had talent for music, and
the mother had strong love for poetry
. Both were dissatisfied with farm life
4 and were rather unhappy. Two years
after the birth Of the future poetess
