History of the Gun,

Since the introduction of gunpowdel
as a propeller and the general use Of
firearms in warfare and hunting, there
has been more or less insistent de
mand for mechanisms that would give
the soldier or hunter a number OF
shots at his command without reload
ing, and enable them to be rapidly dis.
charged. The first patent for a fire.
arm of this description seems to have
been issued by the British patent OF.
fee in 171S, to James Puckle, a citi.
zen of London, for a gun mounted
upon a tripod, having a single barrel
and revolving cylinder. Strangely
enough. one of the claims set forth in
this patent appears almost verbatim,
1870 years later, in patent taken out
by Rollin White. an American invent
or of a revolving pistol Another Gu
rious claim of the patent was:
The mechanism permits the use OF
square bullets against the Turk and
round bullets against Christians:
moreover. so great is the rapidity OF
fire, that ships armed with the gun
cannot be boarded by an attacking
force. j. Fort in the Outing Mag.

Judge Emory Speer, of Macon, Ga,

Leader Mann objected to taking up
the question today. An attempt will be
made to take up the resolution to-

Representative Mann objected, he
said, because the house had no infor-

in reply to a letter to Representative

BADLY FROSTED
Two Men Forced to Stay Out in
Bitter Cold Monday Night

During the extreme cold of Mon
day night, Pat Hoey and Frank
Link, two employees of the St.
Croix Lumber company on their
way to Camp "a got onto the wrong
road and were compelled to wander
about all night, the result being
that both were badly frozen when
found in the morning.
1t seems that Hoey and Link had
been to town and after dark started
for the camp. They became con-
fused in the roads and wandered
all night with the thermometer at
26 degrees below zero and sharp
wind blowing. Link became ex-
hausted early in the morning and
laid down in the snow while Hoey
kept on the move. The strangest
part of the story is that the two
men when found were only short
distance from the Oliver camp and
were picked up by men from this
camp when they were going to
work.
They were brought to the Ship
man Hospital Tuesday. Link is
in a very serious condition his feet
and hands being badly frozen.
Hoey is not quite so bad.

feet, which made $40 feet from the
surface, we failed to cut the body
of ore, while we were in ore bearing
material the entire time. Several
drifts were driven from the bottom
of the Wine until finally the walls
came together and the ore bearing
rock could be followed no deeper.
While working at this Wine Mr..
Walbank, who is Superintendent,
and also Secretary of the Company,
gained information that there was
ore in the old workings, consisting
of two shafts on the easterly side
of the forty acre tract and ap-
proximately 1900 feet from this
drift. We had never been able to
get any correct records of the work
in these old shafts but Mr.. Wal
bank felt assured he had gained re-
liable information and the work of
pumping out the old shaft was i'm
mediately commenced. This shaft
is the one farthest east on the pro-
perty and will be designated as
SHAFT A." Another shaft about
800 feet to the west of shaft A, and
a little south in the basin was also
sunk years ago and will be referred
to as SHAFT B." While pumping
out shaft A the work was continued
from the bottom of the Wine on
the Lucky Boy property. At a
depth of 90 feet from the surface in
shaft A was found drift to the
north, extending 200 feet, and on
to the north eighty acre tract
known as the Camp property. This
drift was also extended from the
shaft to the south 100 feet at a
depth of ninety feet from the sur
face, and both drills were in good
rich ore formation nearly the entire
way. At point about 100 feet
north from the shaft was discovered
in the bottom of the drift, extend
ing for twelve feet approximately,
ledge of clear ore two feet above
the bottom. A aoss-cut or drift
was driven in thisaedge to the east

has taken much longer time than
was first thought it would require
we feel now that the end is in
sight, and that before the coming
shipping season is over we will
actually be able to ship ore.
Detailed reports of the work and
expenditures, together with blue
prints and drawings, and in fact
all records of the company are open
for inspection if desired by any of
the stockholders. 1t is a matter of
regret on the part of your officers
that more of the stockholders have
not visited the mine during the
past year, but we trust that con-
dltions will be such they will be
unable to keep away during the
year to come.

E. c. Kennedy. president of the
Vermillion- Mesaba Iron company,
had something to say at the annual
meeting of the stockholders of the
company in Duluth on Jan. Fl, and
we cheerfully .republish certain
parts of his statement. The COM
pany has been pegging along and
saying little. The results obtained
are of sufficient Importance to state
that the possibilities for another
shipping property in Ely for the
coming year are very promising.
He said:
At the close of the preceding
year the main shaft between what
is known as the Lucky Boy and
Anderson properties was at depth
of $50 feet, drift being driven to
the south at the 15O-foot level,
which at that time had attained a
distance of 273 feet. This drift
was continued to the south to a
distance of 531 feet, the last 81 feet
of which was of an angle bearing
eastward; for over 90 feet the drift
penetrated ore formation consisting
of ore and jasper mixed, the ore
standing in chimneys or fingers,
and jasper and other material be-
tween the fingers of ore, and the
end of the drift was in that material
when it was abandoned for the
purpose of sinking deeper and
drifting on a lower level.
The property was examined by
two or three mining engineers who
recommended the sinking of WINE
from the 15O-foot level. The
formation in the the drift at this
level inclined to the northwest
About 80 feet north of the lorna.
ton a Wine was sunk with view
to cutting through the formation
and penetrating the ore which I'M
doubtedly lays under it, but after
sinking this Wine distance of 15C

given us all assistance we could
consistently ask.
There have been employed on
the properties during the past year
from twenty-four to forty-two men
working part of the time three
shifts and part two shifts day,
with an average during the year of
over thirty-four men per month.
Nearly all of the men are fed and
slept at the property and pay board,
which permits the camp to be self
sustaining
The reduced rate of carriage
from the mines to the lake, which
was made year ago, and the in
creased price of ore made at the
close of the last season will enable
the company to profit at least One
Dollar ($1 .0O) per ton more than
conditions warranted before the
change in rates and price.
There have been several pro-
positions made to take the property
over on an increased royalty basis,
but owing to the fact that so much
money has been expended and the
present conditions being such that
comparatively little more will be
needed to develop a large mine,
your officers are of the opinion that
it would be much better to continue
the work and develop the body of
ore which has been proven to exist
rather than accept an increased
royalty, as permanent machinery is
installed and much larger returns
from operating can be secured.
The progress of the work has
been slower than anticipated. We
have met with many obstacles in
the matter of securing funds, but
at every step of the work we have
found encouragement, and while it
