Ards Furnace a Success.

From our Menominee range ex-
changes we note the new Ardis
furnace, the John I. Jones furnace
at Iron Mountain, is running sue.
cessfully, smelling low grade ores.
In the smelling of ores by the
Jones process the metallization is
made by hydrocarbons only, the
gases wasted in other forms of
manufacture being utilized in
smelling the ore. Mr.. Jones con.
tends that with 1900 pounds of coal
he can smelt one ton of SO per cent
pure iron, and mining men predict
that the perfecting of the process
signals new era in the iron his.

Biz Ben, the Best Call for Breakfast.

Some say it is out of date to ad-

when you have the best and every
one tells you go, it seems further
out of date not to get up and say 80.
The Moulton Wireless is the fin
est and most practical umbrella
you ever saw.
No wires to break, no holes in end
of ribs, no poking holes in cover.
Cannot turn wrong side out, and
positively the only umbrella that
ribs can be detached and replaced

81 Am a Democrat"

Observers at the time traced the
change in the late David b. Hills
fortunes to Speech he made in
Brooklyn in the closing days Of the
campaign. The meeting was held at
the old Academy of Music, and an
endeavor had been made by secur-
ing the attendance of Senator Voor-
hees. of Indiana; Governor Albeit,
of New Jersey, and other prominent
Democrats from \putside the State,
to give the Hill candidacy the stamp
OF national approval. Yet the au-
dience seemed listIes and even
when Hill rose to- speak the ap-
plause that met him was largely
perfunctory. He walked quietly to
the front of the platform and stood
there for a moment without speak
ink. Then he said in clear voice
that reached every part OF the hall:
Il am Democrat" "
AT the utteranceS Sof this sentence,
simple and ordinary as it was, yet
one which will always he associated
with the name of Hill. the hitherto
lethargic audience burst into a
storm OF applause. 1t was the key
note of the succeeding days of the
campaign. Hill followed il up with
an impassioned speech, calling on
every Democrat to rally to the sup
port of the ticket and stand to the
national administration. Hugh Nc
Laushlin, the brooklyn boss, put
his hand on Hills shoulder and ex-
claimed:
you've on/it-you've got it,"
This provedfto be fact Hills
chances improved, the tide set in
strongly in his favor, and he was
elected over Davenport by n large
majority.
For the rest /of his life Hill was

A Strange Phenomenon.

We are hearipg strange reports
from UP on the old Wire Road"

remarkable co-incident is that this
last wonderful natural curiosity is
near where then big fish jumped
from the burning stump one mile

man from town was in the Boykin
section last Sunday and he stated
TO The Times reporter that there

people had visited the place and
were more confounded at what they
witnessed. 1t is said that near the
old mill on the Wire road in
Brightsville township. and that for
the past week a/constant incessant
rain had been falling on a small
space of ground, only a few feet in
diameter. At first very little cred
ence was attached to the rumor,
but when prominent citizens report
ed that they had seen 1t, and that
IL was a fact, OF course interest be-
ccme aroused. When such men as
j. M. HunsuckeH, l.. ID. Stubbs and
Capt. T. p. Stubbs declare that
such a phenomenon exists. that they
have visited the spot and have seen
the rain falling, then the most skep-
teal must believe, and no longer

FAVORABLE REPORT ON
SHIP SUBSIDY BILL,

Washington, March 5.-By practical
iy unanimous vote the Senate com
mittee on commerce today ordered a
favorable report on the Gallinger bill
to authorize the postmaster general to
give increased pay to mail lines estab-
llshed between the United States and
ports in South America, the Philip
pines, Japan, China and Australasia.
This measure is in lieu of a general
subsidy measure, which supporters of
plans to increase the merchant marine
nave been unable to push through Con.
greSS.
Under the act of March 3, 1891, the
postmaster general is authorized to paw
for ocean mail service at the rate of
$4 per outward mile to vessels of the
first class, So to vessels of the second
class, and 81 to vessels of the third
class. The Gallinger bill would per-
NIT the postmaster general to give the
81 rate to vessels of the second class
and the 81 rate to vessels of the
third class, in order to encourage the
establis hment of steamship lines TO the
countries named

ed for the bill except one Democrat
1t IS expected the bill will pass the
Senate without much opposition, and
the House probably will run counter To
the views of the members who sup
port the Humphrey subsidy bill.
