American Tolls Needed for Expenses.

Prof. johnson submitted voluminous
statistical tables which he declared in
dicated that the United States would need
to collect tolls from the owners of the
ships engaged in the American coastwise
trade in order to secure sufficient revenue
to meet the canals current expenses and
capital charges. He argued that political
prudence as well as sound methods OF
public fnanciering made 1t desirable to
require those who derive immediate bene-
fit from the canal to pay a reasonable
toll for Its use.

world in settling vexed questions am

Burlington, Oct. 27,--Following fire
of apparently incendiary origin at Queen

for appearance in court Nov. 3.
For several days Mrs. Johnston and
her daughter, Mrs. William Gleason, of
St. Adams, have been occupying the cot
tage, which is extensively furnished.
School Commissioner John w. Colfey, a
contractor erecting buildings at the park,
discovered the fire Friday afternoon dur
ing the absence of the occupants. The

MANGANESE ALLOYS INCREASE.
Uncle Sam Is Distributing Report De-
scribing the Many Deposits.

The fact that the output of the man
ganese alloys, feLromanganese and spl-
egeleisen, from American mines last
year was 227 ,030 long tons, against 49,
tiyity in this branch of the mining in
tivity in this branch of the mining in
dustry. In addition, more than 100000
tons were imported. This gives timely
interest to 200 page report, by E. G.
Harder, of the United States Geological
Survey, published as bulletin 427 de-
scribing the many manganese and man
ganiferous deposits in the United States
as well as the uses OF manganese and
manganese alloys. As indicated by the
large amount of ore consumed, man
ganese is very important alloy and
has many uses. Manganese steels are
hard but not brittle and are malleable,
though they offer great resistance to cut
ting tools. These properties make man
ganese steels highly useful in the man
ufacture OF such articles as gears, pin
ions, sprockets, sprocket chains, railroad
frogs and switches, and the faces and
digging parts of pulverizing and crushing
machinery used in mining, etc. For MAX
ing some of these articles, manganese
is practically the only alloy available.
Manganese bronze is produced by al
Toying manganese with copper, and sill
yer bronze by alloying manganese with
aluminium, zine, and copper. Oxides of
manganese are used in glass manufae-
tune, in dry batteries, as a drier of var
nishes and paints, and in the making
Of disinfectants. As a coloring material
manganese is used for coloring glass,
pottery, tiles. and bricks, in calico print
ing and dyeing and in paint manufac-
ture 1t also has many other uses.

The Romance Of Making Money.

In the November American Magazine
+. Albert Apple writes a story entitled
candy Reagan Successful Failure" in
which he makes the following comment
On the romance of making money:
"Year by year, the romance of max
ing money in America is creeping farther
west. Already il has crossed the Mis-
sissippi, and wealth-corralling in the
East is a coldly analytical game of cost
systems, efficiency experts, advertising
campaigns, and the charts of business
forecasts.
"But the search for romance in bust
ness has developed the typical Ameri-
cana rowing entrepreneu. Time was
when a hundredmile trip meant eouu'
ty gossip; but now coast-to-coast
haunt occasions a mere elevating of the
brows and a request for picture postals.
'The oil country was the last TO lose
its fairyland enchantment. The oil man
is the most picturesque and discontenteu
of all the sorrowful procession of ro-
nance seekers-his home is on wheels
and in suit case and he jumps a thous-
and miles at time. Occasionally one
meets an old-time oil producer who sug-
gests days of plank roads and border
rushings; but he will shake his head and
claim that oil country romance died
when antielinal maps and rs Broadway
came into existence.
