He picked it up and took its number

The Canal Company Must Show
Cause.

The land owners have begun suit
against the Minnesota Canal & Pow

petition to condemn lands in Sc. Louis

from a series of streams does not con-

tering the suit have petitioned the
district court praying that the pro-
ceedings be dismissed.
The Minnesota Canal s. Power Co.

since been trying their hardest, as

something for nothing. They seek to

Hoatson to shoulder the burden.
Hoatson's brother-in-law, Thomas f.
Cole, became interested in the enter
prise through Mrs. Cole, TO whom
Hoatson told his troubles and his
hopes and his belief in the Mag

some of his Pittsburg friends, and
soon ample funds were forthcoming
for the development of the mine and
the organization of the Calumet &

"For the payment OF the Costello

Modern Gold Bricks.

What has become of the fellow
with the little walnut shells and the
elusive pea? And there was the fell
low who had purchased gold brick
from an Indian and would sell 1t for
a fraction of its value. And there,
also, was an opportunity for an &C.
casional flyer in green goods that APP
pealed to the credulous. Lot of
money made in green goods. But
there is little now.
The same class OF men who robbed
the people in the years ago, now do it
in a more dignified way. They organ
ize paper corporations and unload
stock; ask for franchises of various
kinds; plan great improvements with
the sole idea rearing structures that
will carry bond issues fora time and
not collapse till the promoters are out
of town.
That is the modern method. 1t is
far more profitable than dispensing
gold bricks and not half as dangerous.
1t has entrapped the confiding, rob-
bed the widow and the orphan, peo-
pied poor-houses, but it is business and
the world looks on with app roval.
Give us back our fakes. We paid
dearly. but we enjoyed them; there
was at least entertainment in their
rascalitY, and it hurts to be robbed by
men who wear the livery of business.

"a Mesaba iron mine is one of the
worlds wonders" Mr.. Casson writes.
"The ore is not buried deep in the
earth, but lies just underneath the
surface in heaps and hills, as though
a tribe of friendly gnomes had mined
it. There are no sunken shafts, no
sunless ciycrns and subways. no bur

hidden by Il foot of loose soil, but

men can handle one shovel. and under
favorable conditions they can load
more ore in one hour than fve-hun-
dred delving miners can bring up in a
day from the average rock mine. At
every swing of the steam shoyel's
powerful arm, five tons of ore drop in
to Zig steel car. The arm swings

car is heaped and another is pushed
into its place. When twenty cars are
full, the ponderous hundred-and-
thirty ton engine pulls them out of
the mine, and eighty miles through
the dense forest to Lake Superior.
From the high tresslework of an ore
dock the ore is dropped quickly into
large bins. and the empty train re-
turns to the mine for another thons-

give years ago the camp produced
about $4,000, 900 pounds of copper dur
ing the year. and from a grade of ore
far higher in copper tenor than is
now smelted. The difference in the
copper content Of the ore now produc-
ed is not due to reduction in grades
in the mines, but to the advanced
price of copper, which permits the
production of leaner ores at as large
profit as was formerly made with
those of better percentage. Today
the camp is making copper at the rate
of $50, 600, 600 pounds per annum, and
it need occasion no establishment if it
somewhat exceeds that total for
this calendar year. Smelter enlarge

increase the production during 1907 at

A TREACHEROUS TROUBLE

The headaches and dizzy feelings that trouble so many persons, are often but symptoms of kidney complaint.
 Kidney diseases are very treacher- ous. They come on silently, gain ground rapidly, and cause thousands of deaths that could have been pre- vented by treatment in the beginning.
 Nature gives early warnings of every disease, if you would but note and heed them. Backache, twinges of pain when stopping or lifting, headaches. faint spells and urinary disorders are among the first warnings of kidney trouble
 If these signals are unheeded, there comes a steady, dull, heavy aching in the back and Ioins, a noticeable weak ness and loss of flesh. rheumatic at Jacks. weakening of the sight. irreg- ular heart action. languor attacks of gravel irregular passages of the kid ney secretiOns sediment, painful, scaldine sensation. dropsical bloating, etc.

the most daring and difficult project so far undertaken by the government.
 The contract for the construction of this dam was executed by the secre tary Of the interior, April 21. 1905. Al though the company which made this contract is energetic and experienced, the long succession of unusual floods which have occurred in Salt river in the past year has from time to time delayed the attempts to control the river with coffer dams and excavate the foundation. Time after time a large amount of work has been en- tirely destroyed and the contractors appliances swept away.
 It is therefore with a great sense of relief that the news is received that the erratic river has finally submitted to the curb and rein and a few weeks will see the contractors works out of danger. The work will therefore ad- vance rapidly and benefits from the storage accomplished may be expected
