When Mineral Point Sent a
Schooner Down to the Sea
By M. M. Quaife.

The project of converting Milwau-
kee and other cities on the Great
Lakes into seaports by the construc-
ton of the proposed deep water canal
has gripped the Imagination of all
residents of the upper Mississippi val
ley. But even the widest dream of the
present day fails to embrace the Wis
ion of making a seaport of Mineral
Point, the ancient capitol of Wiscon-
sins lead mine region, feat which
was actually accomplished by three
dreamers two generations ago.
1t happened in 1S49, when news of
the discovery of gold in Cali
fornia was borne to the miners Of
southwest Wisconsin. That discovery,
which gave birth to modern Califor-
MIA, seemed likely to give the death
blow TO the lead mines of Wisconsin,
for the army of adventurous miners
upon whose labors the prosperity Of
that region depended, on hearing the
news from California Immediately
pulled stakes" and departed in a
wild rush for the new Eldorado.
Most of Wisconsin's gold seekers
journeyed to California in prairie
schooners across the plains, but an
adventurous group of Mineral Point
argonauts concluded to build a sch
ooner that would navigate the seas,
and in it to make the long and ardu-
Gus journey. The true story of the
carrying out of this remarkable en-
terprise reads today like a tale of
widest fiction.
Hear of Gold Strike.
The discovery of gold was made, it
will be remembered, in the spring of
1913; the news was carried back to
the United States within a few weeks
and the great rush to California be-
gan with the spring of 1849. At
Mineral Point some men anticipating
this rush conceived the idea of build
ing a sea-going schooner in which to
make the journey. Henry Paddock
supplied the funds, and Henry Butler
a carpenter, superintendent it's con-
struction. Work upon it begun in the
autumn of 1848, and through the
long winter Paddock, Butler. and a
third associate in the enterprise nam
ed Vance, industriously prosecuted
their hopeful design. Vance was a
sailor who had wandered far from
his native element land it may be sur
missed that it was he who persuaded
his companions to embark upon the
enterprise.
The start of the schooner upon the
long cruise was made ingloriously
enough upon a stout mineral wagon,
for distrusting for some reason the
raging Peccatonica, the argonauts
hauled their schooner, in the spring
of 1849, by wagon to Galena Galena
was then busy river port, the chief
wholesale center for the entire upper
Mississippi valley. Here the schooner,
was auspiciously launched, and the
expert services of Sailor Vance were
requisitioned to step the masts and
rig the vessel for the voyage.

A Big Lead Mine.

Platteyille News: Charles Wolf,
operating the Big Dick mine near Gu
ba City, reports the largest discovery
of lead found in the district during
the past fifty years,
They followed a pitch down to a
flat at 103 feet and went through SIX
feet of solid lead ore. A SIX 1ncn
sheet would make a paying mine, but
a six footer is world beater.

DURYEA A SUICIDE.
Third Member of Family to Die
 Tragedy fin Seven Years.

San Francisco, April 12.-Maior Francis w. Duryea. 49 years old was found dead yesterday in his room at the Presidio military reservation here with revolver in his hand. An army board of inquiry found that he had committed suicide, but learned noth- ing of any motive.
 He was the son of the late General Hiram Duryea, a Civil War veteran and member of the family owning the 'Duryea Starch Manufacturing company in New York city.
 This is the third violent death in the Duryea family in the last seven years. General Hiram Duryea, the majors uncle, was shot to death by his son Chester, a man of 49, at his home in Brooklyn on May 4, 1914. Chester was later sent to the Mattea- wan asylum as insane. On Jan. 27, 1921, Harry H. Duryea, Chester's younger brother killed himself with revolver in his office, in the Equit- able Trust building, 347 Madison av- enue. He, too, had been in the best of spirits up to the time of his death.

 Leave space of about one-fourth of an inch in the middle of the wind ings for a shaft which will be passed through later
 Use the same number of turns about 23--on each of the tubes and connect as in the diagram-one end of tho wire on the movable coil go- Ing 10 one end of the wire on the fixed coil. The other ends of the wires are brought to binding posts.
 Stator and Rotor.
 The fixed coil is called the stator and the movable coil the rotor
 After the coils are wound they may be given very light coat of clear shellac to hold them in place more firmly
 Leave enough slack in the wire attached to the rotor so that it may be turned about inside the stator A brass rod is used to support both coils. When varied, the rotor should move freely.
 To make the connection from tho stator 10 the rotor, punch q small

 The other two wires-ono from the stator and the other from the rotor-may be brought down along a grooved line in the uprights of the variometer stand--one on each upright and thence to the binding posts
