The Story of Copper.

The history of the copper industry on
Lake Superior is just we'll known as that
al the iron industry. but controversies con-
corning the matter are just as frequent and
bitter, Nevertheless, Peter White and other
mcu mo have been In this section for gen.
cratious are living witnesses to the truth
aud Mr.. White has had his recollections
published in detail. with dates and details
which cannot be disputed
Dr. Douglas Houghton. first state geolo-
sist of Michigan.is more directly responsible
for the development of the copper resources
Of the northern peninsula than any other
man, although the existence of copper in
large quantities was proclaimed to the
world 100 years before his time. Michigan
was admitted as state in 1896 DR.
Houghton was appointed state geoIogist in
1887. and began his explorations the fol-
lowing year, but in 1876 a Frenchman
named La Garde published little book in
Paris. in which he makes public the first
knowledge of the mineral resources OF the
Lake Superior country. Four years later
another Frenchman named Boucher pub
lisEed book in which he described a great
Island In Lake Superior where, he says
There is a very beautiful mine of copper
and one large ingot weighing 500 pounds
from which the Indians cut off pieces with
their axes. having first softened 1t by fire."
Both of these writers obtained their In
formation from the early Jesuit explorers
and other authors confirmed their publca-
lions
In the middle of the seventeenth century
Claude AlloueZ. who visited the Lake Su-
perior region. describes a large mass of
native copper lying near the shore of the
lake from which the Indians obtained their
supply. ard says that they frequently
found nuggets OF the pure metal Ching
from ten to twenty pounds.

JOHN CHINAMAN SMILES.
to the Courts He May Get
Certain Dainties Duty-Free.

The Cinnamon of this country have beaten
the customs department of the government
and hereafter will eat certain kinds of dried
fish much cheaper than In the past. For
many years the government has charged a
pretty heavy duty on cutie fish and fiat
fish. as the common squid is called, and the
result was that the importations of these
fish In dried form from China were not
large. the customs charges making the cost
to the Chinaman pretty high by the time the
fish got here. A Chinese importing firm In
New York recently took case into the
courts and the government lost out.
The result is that the customs officials in
Washington have been compelled to notify
collectors that dried cutie fish and squid
may now come into this country free OF
duty, which makes John Chinaman smile.
On the coast OF California extensive
business Is carried on by Chinese In catch
ing and drying the common squid. but the
industry does not supply the demand Of the
large number of Cinnamon here. The I'M
portations of squid are expected to increase
to a large extent from now on.
