that the small formation which was
cut by the Shagawa shaft may be the
only body of ore underlying the sur
face of the Shagawa property at a
depth which would warrant mining.
"The Soudan formation has it's

late intrusives which cut both the Ely

"Some of these belts are unusually

that all are parts of one general for

the surprises in the operations Of the
oldest mines are not less astonishing
than those brought to light during
the initial developments of properties
concerning which little definite infor-
nation of the iron bearing series was
known. An example of this is the
comparatively recent discovery of a

Lenten Season

Now that the season Of Lent is in
full swing, we publish the following
rules and regulations as laid down by
the Catholic church for the forty days
beginning with Ash Wednesday, Mar.
4. The rules as laid down by the pom
tiff are as follows:
"All the days of Lent. Sundays ex-
cepted, are days of fast.
"The precepts Of fast restrict the
use of food to one meal toward the
middle of the day, and collation. in
the evening not exceeding the fourth
of full meal, custom, however, au-
thorizing the taking in the morning
Of cup of coffee, tea or chocolate,
with small piece of bread.
For the collation. theologians allow
solid food to the amount of eight
ounces. The solid food taken in the
morning should not exceed two
ounces
when the full meal or principal
repast cannot be taken without seri-
Gus inconvenience toward the middle
of the day, the order of repasts may
be reversed, the full meal or principal
repast being taken in the evening,
and the collation. at an earlier hour in
the day.
1.-THE use of flesh meat is allowed at
all meals on Sunday and the principal
meal on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thurs
days and Saturdays. except the Satur-
day of Ember week March 14), and the
Saturday of Holy week april 1S).
1.-THE use of flesh meat, therefore,
is forbidden on Wednesdays, Fridays,
the Saturdays OF Ember and Holy
weeks,a on other days. outside Sun
days, it is forbidden at other repasts
outside the full meal.
1.-THE use of lard is permitted at ali
times in the preparation of food.
"Both fish and flesh meat cannot be
taken at the same meal, even on Sun
days.
Persons legitimatelY excused or
dispensed prom the precept of fasting
may use flesh meat at all meals on
whatever day there is general permits
sion to use it at the principal meal.
From the peecept of fast are ex-
cused: Those under the age of 81
years or over the age OF 90: the infirm
aud the conyalescent; women bearing
or nursing children. persons engaged
IN hard labor or other duties exhaust
i've of physical strength; persons who
from poverty are unable to procure
for the principal meal sufficiency of
hutritive food.
"From the precept of abstinence
are excused: The young under the
age of years; the sick; persons who
are so situated as not to be able to
procure for themselves abstinence
food.
"In virtue of the authority conceded
to bishops Of the United States by a
recent pontifical indult, permission is
granted to working people TO use
meat on all days of Lent. with the ex-
ception of Friday, Ash Wednesday,
the Wednesday aud Saturday of Holy
week.
"This dispensatiOn from abstinence
extends to all three meals in the day.
"'rhe usual prohibition remains
against using flesh meat and fish at
the same meal.
Where the wage-earner, in virtue
of the indult, uses meat, all the men,
bers of his household may likewise
use it. The church does not wish to
impose upon the household the incon-
venlence of double cooking. But, in
cases of this kind, the members of the
household who are bound by the pre-
|cept of fast, are allowed the use Of
meat ONLY at their DrinciDal meals

Church Fair at Full Blast.

The two days fair of the ladies of the
congregational church, held in the YES
try of the church, is the principal ex-
cltement of the week. There are
booths galore and every one attended
by ladies who must have taken lessons
in the arts of salesmanship and we
warn those who go to take along their
pocketbook. Never mind if you do
spend little money it is for a good
cause and you certainly will get your
moneys worth since almost every arti-
Gle for sale is at reduced price. You
can buy anything from a boiled dinner
or mouse trap to aprons. and shredded
wheat. A very pleasing literary pro-
gram was given last evening by the
pupils from the schools under the di-
rection of Miss Ferrin. The school or
chestra also rendered several fine Sc
lections. A large business was done at
the fair yesterday and to days sales

Big Round Barn in Charleston.

Probably the largest round barn in
New England was built last summer
by B. J. Lang of East Charleston. s.
E. Norris of Charleston had charge of
the work. The building is 100 feet in
diameter and is 80 foot posted. 1t is
sided with single boards and novelty
siding. The roof is two-t thirds pitch,
IS shingled and has cupela Is feet
high. The stable which is built
around the inside. is 27 feet wide and
ties 60 head of cattle, II horses, and
also leaves space for three walks into
the feed floor, separator room. where
gasoline engine furnishes power to
run the separator, churn, ensilage
cutter and threshing machine. There
is plenty of room behind the COWS to
tie calves. The second floor, reached
by drive under the main driveway,
is arranged for storing machinery and
tools. The drive floor is % feet above
the sills ana is reached by covered
driveway of easy grade. The hay
space is 6175 feet deep and extends
around the barn directly over the
stables. The center or core of the
barn is 45 feet in diameter and runs
from the drive floor to the basement
with doors on the different floors. 1t
is arranged for silos and hay There
is plenty of room in the hay spaces for
over 800 tons, and not fork full has to
be pitched up. Feed traps are arranged
on the second floor so the fodder can
be dropped near the hangers. About
100. 900 feet of lumber was used in the
building and $4,000 shingles on the
roof, all of which Mr.. Lang cut on his
farm and sawed out in his mill. When
the building was partly completed
planer and hatcher and some other
machinery was set up in the stable
and run by a gasoline engine and the
finish lumber was gotten out there.
The E. s. Welch Patent Swing
stanchions are used in the stable.
