that the product of the Homestead

Although the Mississippi, in
cluding the Missouri, is about 4,300
miles in length, and the Amazon
4,029 miles, while the St. Lawrence
is only 1,450 miles, the latter is held
to comprise the largest body of
fresh water on the earth. Including
its grea lakes and its tributaries,
covering about 73,000 square miles,
the aggregate mass of water is esti
mated at 9,000 cubic miles.
IRON ORE INDUSTRY.
The iron ore industry of the
United States has shown since 1880
one of the most remarkable strides
ever recorded of any industry in
any couutry. The census figures
have just been tabulated, and it ap
pears that the increase of produc
tion in ten years has been over 100
per cent, from seven million to
fourteen million gross tons. In the
same time there has been an aver
age decrease in the cost of mining
to 50 cents a ton, an average de
crease in the value at the mines of
95 cents a ton, and an average in
crease in a mining operative's earn
ings of $100 per annum. Consider-
ing the depressing effects of the
'nihher tariff" this is ciuite a re
markable record.
JOHN WEBSTER'S GENIUS
There is something in Webster
that reminds me of Victor Hugo.
Tlwre is the same confusion at
times of what is big with what is
irrent. the same fondness for the
n '
merely spectacular, the same in
sensibility to repulsive details, the
same indifference to the probable or
even to the natural, the same lean
ing toward the grotesque, the same
love, of effect at whatever cost: and
there is also the same impressive
ness of result. Whatever other ef
fect Webster may produce upon us,
he never leaves us indifferent. We
may blame, we may criticise, as
much as we will: we may say that
..,1 .1.:,. :.,c.a ;a -1 nVlr nf I
theatrical ble.liKht; we shudder,
and admire nevertheless. W e may
aiiv that he is melodramatic, that his
fio-iirps are map-ic-lantern pictures
that wave and change shape with
thf curtain on which they are
thrown; it matters not, he stirs us
with an emotion deeper than any
mere artifice could stir. From
"Webster," by James Russell Lowell,
in Harper's Magazine for August.

Chairman Wilson used language
in his speech notifying Mr. Cleve
land of his nomination which New
York democrats think he ought to (
Molain. He said to Mr. Cleveland:
"Four years ago, in the mid career
of a service that well deserved the
highest honors your countrymen
could bestow you were cut
down because, as a democrat, you
could make no terms with those
who wished to plunder the people's
treasury." Since Mr. Cleveland
was defeated in wew xom, me
Tammany men want to know if
they are charged with the defeat
because Cleveland would not
promise to allow them to loot the
treasury. It certainly looks as
though Mr. Wilson meant to revive
the charges that Tammany knifed
Cleveland, and that the Tammany
men resent the charge.
It is, however, a democratic ques
tion for the committee on harmony
to look after. Mr. Whitney has a
big contract on his hands.
The great commercial countries
of the world are nearer to adopting
silver and gold jointly as money
metals than they have been since
the use of silver was abolished by
the Latin union. And it is through
the agency of the republican party of
the United States. It is through the
efforts of a republican president
that there is to be an international
silver conference, lookingto the use
of both metals. It was through the
legislation of a repulican congress
(the Sherman law) that the total pro
duct of the American mines is now
represented in the circulation of
the country, each dollar of circula
tion being represented by a dollar's
worth of silver at the value in the
world's markets. The only differ
ence a free coinage law would make
would be to put some thirty cents
into the pockets of the silver mine
owners for every silver dollar coined.
The republican party is the true
friend of bi-metallism.

A Mter Btraciure.
I spent a long time in wandering about
fit MannfAtiires buildinfT. It is tnfl
biggest building ever planned, and it
will have one roof covering tnirty acren.
Senator Ingalls came out and looked at
it the other day, and as he gazeu, as
tounded at its immensity, he said: "It id
an exhalation! Yesterday It was not,
today it is and tomorrow it will have
passed away. I can see now you can
fence it in. but to roof it almost sur
passes human conception!" Think of
putting a massive glass and iron roof
nver a thirtv acre field! That is what
the men are doing here today, and I saw
them at work putting up the great iron
trusses which will support this roof.
You cannot conceive the size or tnis
structure without seeing it. Three hun
Hrert thousand neoDle could be seated on
the floor and in the galleries and 80,0C
could be seated on the floor alone, ine
at Rome, with all its aralleries,
could only seat 87,000 people, and it was
never roofed except with canvas, x ou
could put four coliseums on that floor,
and two pyramids as big as Cheops
would sit upon it side by side and leave
room for the Capitol at Washington. If
the great pyramid was taken to pieces
and earned here its material couia oe
stored in this buildinir and you could
look down upon its masses of stone from
the galleries.
This budding is about a third or a
mile long. Thirty great staircases, so
wide that two carriages could be driven
nn them side bv side, will lead to wide
galleries and there will be a street fifty
feet wide running tnrougn tne center.
With its galleries it will have forty
acres of floor space, and it tires one even
to think of its possible contents. Chi

Electrle Light on Battlefield.
The ubiquity of electricity is becoming
almost proverbial. From the "brightest
spot on earth" to the blood stained battle
fields is rather a far cry, but there is no
end to the application of electricity. A
recent telegram from Austria described
some experiments of great interest
which have recently been carried out
successfully there. The difficulty of
searching for the wounded on the night
after a great battle nas been one which
has long occupied the attention of mili
tary reformers, anl the army medical
Bervice in Austria tas been endeavoring
to determine how iar the electric light
may be utilized f cr this humane end.
The value of powerful search lights
with reflectors hai been proved in naval
affairs, and at Puakim and elsewhere
soldiers have feond them very effective
on open ground. They would be equal
ly effective undti -i-tular conditions for
assisting in picking up wounded,
but when the battle has raged ovi ,
wide extent of country, or when the
fighting has occurred amid woods and
brushwood, the use of this class of light
is attended with difficulty. Electrical

A Dog's Folltlcal Preferences.
Out at Abilene the man who runs a
transfer wagoa and smashes the drum
mers' tranks owns a dog. He is just a
common, old fashioned cur. But the
dog votes, and votes right. His master
every morning upon the arrival of the
Texas and Pacific train gets his dogship
to show off before the crowdv "Do you
vote for Clark?" the canine is asked. He
rises up on his hind feet, his front ones
high in the air, his body perfectly erect
and nods his head. "Do j-ou vote for
Hogg?" the master inquires. The dog
gets down flat upon the floor and buries
his face in his front legs, the rery pic
ture of negation. These daily perform
ances have come to be well advertised
in Abilene and always draw a crowd.
Should Judge Clark be successful that
dog will be installed in state at Austin
next January, and for two years at least
will be the be6t fed animal in Texas.

A Boiling Hole.
In Noble county, W. Va., there is a
fathomless sea, composed of salt water
and oil, from which gas escapes with a
tremendous roar. Twenty years ago a
well was drilled there to the depth of
1,900 feet. Some years later water and
gas escaped from the hole with great
pressure, tearing out the tubing and cut
ting a cavern apparently hundreds of
feet deep and forty feet in diameter.
After it ceased to flow a farmer filled it
up and built a barn over it, and again a
few days ago a terrific report announced
another explosion of the well, oil and
water pouring out in abundance. In a
single day the hole became fathomless
and about forty feet wide. Chicago
