many of our people who have been
interested in copper, died week

three years of his life he lived in
comparative retirement. He was

The Mesaba Iron company,
which has been in existence but
doing nothing for many years, at
last shows signs of increased signs
of life, and is making arrangements
for the working of its lands under
lease, says the Duluth Herald.
This company was in existence and
secured thousands of acres of lands
along the Mesaba range years be-
fore the wealth of the deposits of
the Vermi1ion range, twenty miles
north, had been dreamed of. In
fact the Iron Range road, or its
predecessor under charter, was
incorporated to build from Duluth
to the Mesaba, and it was not until
George c. Stone interested G.
Tower and others in the Vermilion
line that the purpose was changed.
1t has been the impression for years
that titanium in sufficient quantities
to ruin the ore for commercial
purposes was present in all the
Mesaba ores, as it probably was in
some small share of them. How
ever, it has been proven by latter
analysis and explorations that the
great portion of the range is free
from titanic acid, and the company
has lately been negotiating for leas-
ing different parts of its lands to
miners for actual development and
mining.
