Great Western
Iron Company

Rev. E. N. Quist, one of the
original incorporators, and also one
of the present stockholders in the
Great Western Iron company, whose
headquarters are at Hanford, told
the Spokesman while in White
Bluffs this week that things in gen.
eral with the company could not be
in better shape or running more
smoothly than they are.
That of the original $4,000 OF
stock for which the company was
incorporated, $36. 900 has already
been sold and that they have just
received request from one man
for the balance of the stock. The
officers of the company. Mr.. Quist
says, will turn down this request as
they deem it advisable to have the
stock scattered around in small
blocks.
The first machine for the separa-
ton of the iron from the sand is
now being built in Hanford, and as
soon as completed will be moved to
the big sand hills on the west side
of the river across from Ringold
and actual work begun.
Rev. Quist says that figuring the
lowest estimates on everything the
company expects, by working three
eight hour shifts, to turn out ID
tons of iron every "a hours. The
price for magnet iron is very high
now and in great demand. and Mr.
Quist says that he and the other
owners OF the patent feel very OPP.
timistic over the future for the
company.
The first block of stock sold ir
White Bluffs, Rev. Quist said, was
purchased by Charles A. Whitney
Mr.. Whitney took $25 worth.

Tiny Tot Takes
a Long Stroll

When Mrs. VIM. Mckay let
her little two-year-old daughter,
Ina, out of the house last Sun
day morning about 1890, short
ly after her husband had gone
hunting, she little knew of the
experience in store for her be-
fore she saw her baby again.
She was missed about a half
hour later, and when Mrs. Nc
Kay went to look for her she
was no where in sight, nor
would she answer when called.
Then began a search by fran
tic mother and a few of the
neighbors that ended only when
the mother found the child about
three hours later leaning against
a sage brush just short dis
lance south and west of the
Growers Warehouse, and crying
Mamma" The whole neigh
borhood had been aroused and
several parties were searching
when the happy news arrived
that the baby had been found.
The mother lad just about
given up at o'clock, when she
found the child's tracks in the
sage brush. These she followed
in feverish haste until the child
was overtaken. The little tot
had travelled about two miles in
/ all.

FISHES WITH ITS WINGS.

VO capturing iso T'Sys
Habits OF the corn,orant and OF our
native fish hawk are generally known.
Their methods of taking fish are very
much like those of birds of prey. But
the cassowary fishes according to a
method of its own. A we'll known
naturalist witnessed Its operations on
river in the island Of New Britain.
He saw cassowary come down to
the waters edge and stand for some
minutes apparently watching the wa
ter carefully. IT then stepped into the
river where 1t was about three feet
deep and. partially squnttlng down.
spread its wings out, submerging them,
the feathers being spread and ruff1ed.
The bird remained motionless and
kept its eyes closed as II In sleep II
remained IN this position for quarter
Of m hour when, suddenly closing its
wings md strengthening Its feathers,
1t stepped out on the bank. Here 1t
shook itself several times. whereupon
quantity Of small fishes fell out Of
Its wings and from amid its feathers.
These tho bird Immediately picked up
and swallowed.
The fishes had evidently mistaken
the feathers for Il kind OF weed that
grows In the water along the banks of
the river in, this island and which
much resemble the feathers Of the cas-
sowary. The smaller fishes hide in
these weeds to avoid the larger ones
that prey on them.-St. Paul Pioneer

ARMY CARP WATER.

How the Supply 10 Conserved and Used
In the German Army.
Suitable drinking water is of vital i'm.
poVtauce to an army. and this Is only
one OF Il multitude Of problems that
must be studied carefully by those who
conduct II successful campaign. The
water supply of a camp Is matter of
grent importance. Only running water
Is used.
In the German army the upstream
water is used for drinking purposes
and the downstream water for water
ing horses and for bathing. Suitable
signs notify the men which water Is
safe to drink and which may be used
only for bathing In shallow or narrow
streams basins are dug or small dams
built so as to form reservoir Of ample
dimensions.
Stepping stones are provided to keep
the water clean, aY we'll as board pro-
lection to prevent the banks from
crumbling. Basins are dug for water
ing horses: troughs nre provided only
In case Of necessity and are then pTop-
ped on posts and filed by means Of
pumps. Pipes may be driven If water
lies at u reasonable depth--in other
words, not more than twenty feet. De
pending upon their size, these pipes will
deliver from four to twenty-five gal
Ions Of water per minute.
If wnter lies very near the surface a
