Atlas company. A member Of tho
crew stated on Tuesday that the COM
pany had constructed wharf for
the handling of cement AZ their works.
and that they planned buying a total
of six steamboats, for towing cement,
provided this first boat proves a sue
cess.
The Josh Cook will now make a trip
to st. Paul with three barges of ce-
ment and will wait there while these
barges are unloaded and then reload
them with flour for New Orleans, pick
ing UP the two empty barges at Rock
Island on her way down and loading
these at Hannibal for New Orleans.
There has been lot Of talk in
recent years about the coming revival
of freight traffic On t.le upper river,
but this Is the first real effort that
has been made in that direction for a
long time. The Josh Cook is typical
Ohio river tow boat, drawing five feet
of water and 1t remains to be seen
whether she can be operated success
fully north of Hannibal. 1t is probable
| that a tow boat line of this kind
could be made to pay If each city had
municipal wharf for handing freight
economically, such as recently sug
gested for Keokuk, but not otherwise

The two lieutenants Of block 81,

Queer Wax Of Oregon.

Nehalem wax Is the name given a
somewhat mysterious product found
on the beach near the mouth of the
NehaIem river In Oregon.
II was observed by the early ex-
plorers of that coast. Later consid-
cradle deposits were found In the
sand of the beach. In 1S46 several
tons Of this queer, waxlike substance
were shipped to Hawaii. and since
then many tons of 1t have been sent
to Northwestern markets.
Opinion is divided concerning the
nature and origin of this substance.
Some hold that 1t Is beeswax and 9th
ers contend that 1t is a mineral sub
stance called ozocerite. 1t is usual
ly found In large rectangular blocks.
II has honey-ifke aroma when
freshly cut Examination made in
the laboratory of a western univers-
ity shows that the substance closely
approaches beeswax In composition
and does not accord with the proper
ties OF ozocerite.
The conclusion, oddly enough. IA

of a ship at the mouth of the Ne.

Around practically every battered
old coin treasured in the pocket of
a baggy pair of pants there hangs
a hallucinatory halo in the form OF
a tradition that there is large
premium on it and that it will
fetch a considerable sum over and
above its face value. Nobody knows
the size of the premium, who makes
the offer or how it is TO be col
lected, but the faith, as answering
as the justly celebrated laws of the
late Modes and PeTsians and as
beautiful as it is pathetic, exists,
that somehow, somewhere, some
sweet when. that faithful old coin
will bring its owner considerable
fortune.
