A. company of eastern capitalists , principally from Uultlmoroand New York , have quietly been working on the scheme. The cnpltnl Mock is 17,000,000. A well known I'ittsburg cnglnccrinR firm , which hai Its ofllco in the Lcwli block , Is after the contract for the building of ho works. It is probable that it xvlll receive the contract. The company w 111 do business on an enormous scale anil will bo nblo to compete with cngllab. Importers , oven If the latter do cut prices. The new concern will have its own tin inliicJ and reducing plant In the west. Ground hnsbeen purchased In Baltimore on which the mills are to bo erected. The cost of the ground runs Into the hundreds of thou sands. The mines have also been secured. .At tUo works in IJaltlmoro several new processes for the manufacture of tinned plato which have been recently patented will bo applied. The patents have bjcn purchased by the company. .About t.-,00fl,000 will bo put Into the Haiti- more plant ittclf. It will cover several acres nnd will to the largest tln-plato concern on thoRlobo.

Corn In Hie Itecl Ilivcr Vnlloy. W. F1. Dalrymplc , the Rrcnt Dakota farmer , 1ms returned from n trip through the Red Ktvor Valley highly elated with the state of things on his monster farm , says a Minneap olis special to the Chicago Tribune. "Tho output of our farms" h ° sa'Ji ' "nas been more satisfactory this year than over be fore. Threshing Is about finished , and the xvholo valley proper has n very fair crop. The yield of wheat has ax'craged from twelve to fifteen busbcls to the aero , nnd it is a good quality. I xvaj very much pleased with , the com development I found out there. Heretofore It has been supposed that corn could not bo raised there , but this voar they planted a variety that bad been acclimated in Northern Minnesota , and they have potn good crop. I saw a prcat many fluids of from 100 to 00 acres , und the corn had ripened In all of them. The c.irs are large , and the kernel Is firm and rich. The movement is of the great est importance to that part of the country. Its success xvlll enable the Dakota farmer to diversify crops , nnd this provides against the total ( allures that buvo been such hard blows to the tropic there. It will make it possible to work into stock raising , nnd I think the re sult of the experiment xvlll bo the gradual chaiiKinpof the district into a stock raising country , " Imports or Cniuidinn K\mfl , A representative of a large shipper of Canadian epgs Is superintending the pickling of about n hundred thousand dozens which \xcro shipped from Canada during the last week , says n Rutland , Vt , , special to the Cliicatro Herald. The shipment was tnado xvlthout pickling in order to get the CRRS over the border into Vermont before thoMcKinlcy tariff bill took effect. The represcntntix'o snys that several hundred thousand dozens of ergs have been shipped to the United States within a fortnight for pickling for the sanio reason. Ho says It xx'ili hnro the double ef fect of larpcly increasing the price of eggs to the consumer In this country , and xvlll drive the Canadian farmers Into chceseinaklng , with serious effect on American-mado cheese , with which they will compete in foreign mar kets.

Whllo the silver bill was before congress the financiers of the Orient foresaxv the way things xvero trending in this countrj nnd quietly boucht nil the Mexican dollars they could get hold of ntSl cents. The sllx'cr bill which passed placed the value of Mexican dollars In the United Stntcs atOT cents. The result is the manipulators of the Hong Kong and Shang hai bank have mailo a barrel of nionoy.

Invention ofn 1'rooosH to Burn Conl to Advantage.

The coal can bo dellx'crod In the txvln cities at S3 per ton. The dovlco consists In the principle of an ariango- mcnt for controlling too drafts , and entirely consuming all the puses plvcn off by the coal in the process of combustion , nnd by the use of a counter draft the heat Is retained In the furnace or pi p a for a much longer period than by ttio direct draft system , so that tbero Is practically no waste. By means of this dovlco the gases given off by first combustions nro throxvn back again , with a fresh supply of oxygen , upon the luring fuel , and entirely consumed , this process preventing the giving off of black tinokc.

TlicroArc Xoxv Three Ways of Keaoli- Ingtlic Kninoiis Mountain Top. A trip through Colorado which does not include the ascent of the famous Piko's Peak is incomplete , says the Chicago cage Herald. To accomplish this three routes are olTorcd the ambitious tourist. Taking the old trail of the e'U-ly gold hunters you may follow the maze of its innumerable windings up Cheyenne mountain and along the margin of the Seven lakes. If skill and practice have made you consum mate master ot rein and steed you will make the journey on horseback. Lack ing eduoatitn in this direction you are consigned to the tender mercies of cautious mule or docile burro ( donkey ) , self-concentrated quadrupeds , deaf alike to crack of whip or pleading voice. A second route is by carriage from Cascade Canyon. If , hoxvevcr , spurning the sloxv- climbing' Htago coach , you took surer means of rapid transit , the Pike's Peak cog-wheel railway offers superior induce ments. This road , however , is still un finished , and , having reached the half- xvay house by rail , you are left to con tinue your journey on back of u horse , rnulo or donkey. The relative advantages and" attractions of routes having been duly weighed , the trip by coach seemed most feasible. Seven of these coaches meet the train at Cascade to carry travelers to the distant summit. An inspiring motto , emblazoned in startling ochre on the rear of each roads "Pike's ' Peak or Uusi. " Aided by liorso and mule nnd skilful driver it prox-ed Pike's Peak. The ride from Cascade to the summit is seventeen miles , through scenery often beautiful , always sublime. Collossal rock-forms toxver above you ; on every hand rise gigantic pilasters vast cary atids supporting the entablatures of the hills. Your journey is accomplished in five hours. Four horses convoy your coach to the half-way house and aio there supplanted by as many mules , more sure-footed , and there fore better mountain travelers , your route up the steep mountain is a zlpzng one , varied by in numerable windings on edges of abrupt precipices nnd startling declivities. But your confidence in mules and driver is calm and strong. With assurance of perfect safety nnd even a sense of poxver , you look up 2,000 feet at the leader slowly moving along the brow of the mountain , nnd then downxvard 2,000 feet at the hist coach , apparently journeying in the xvrong direction. The scene that meets the eye as you arosloxvly lifted up the mountain side is almost bewildering ; in its sublime beauty. The topography of the entire country is disclosed to the charmed eye , mountain and valley , shimmering lake nnd spanning rivulet making u panorama of in comparable and Inspiring grandeur. Giant peaks to the southwest dwindle to insignificant hills. Colorado Snrings becomes a patch of green in thodUtance. Manitou steals from sight xvithia the arms of the hills. Leaving the hnlf-xvny house you are soon above timber line , and now the tedious part of the ride bo- gins. Folloxving the trees the grasses soon disappear also ; only a few hardy , persistent mosses remain to rest the wearied eye. Higher yet ! Ttocks every where ! The mules strufirRle upxvard ; vegetation has entirely disappeared. Rocks on every hand. It seems as if the groaning mountain had belched forth this appalling aggregation , whoso prodigious mass covers summit and sides. At last the vorv pinnacle of the mountain is at tained. Only rocks ! A x-ast desolation confronts the awe-struck , silent traveler. And now the rarified atmosphere plays strange prnnks xvith the helpless being whose temerity and "x'aulting ambition" has gained for him this cloud-sxvopt olo- vution. The vanquished may bo found on every hand. The victim of superflu ous avoirdupois is llrst to succumb. From this ntsemhlngo of pale counte nances and whirling brains wo discreetly walked away , lest sympathy should prove more potent than"elevation. . For the first time xve looked down upon fleecy clouds that trailed their shining gar ments along the mountain bide. After a stay of half an hour at the United States signal service station on thobummlt , our return trip xvas made in three hours.

Mr * . "Kills Jollio , a resident of Chicago cage , came to this city today in search of nor daughter Annetta , n handsome girl 2t ; years old , who for some time has been employed in one of the loading dry goods houses here , says a Providence , H. I. , dispatch to the Chicago Times. Kighteen years ago there was a separa tion of the parents of Annotta , her father coming to the east and taking up his residence in Boston. By the courts of Illinois the custody of the daughter was clvea to the father , Edward Jollie , nnd the mother consequently never din- puled the right conferred by the courts , She heard neither from husband nor daughter from that tlmo up to the pres ent day , and journeys to Iho cast have been made many times in Ecnrch o ( the missing daughter. The search has been carried on mostly lo and about Boston nnd other Ma 3iichu ett3 cities until finally the family was traced to Nashua , xvhero Jollio xvas found to have carried on a milk farm for some years near Tyngsboro , Mn 3. , not more than six miles from Nashua. Kotutnlne to Bos ton Jollio resided there awhile , xvhen ho left suddenly one day for parts unknown. Anncttn , encouraged by a lady friend , cnmo to" Providence anil quickly secured n profitable position in nn o'tlico hero. She nftcrxx-nrd entered a dry goods store us a salesxvoman. This morning xvhen Mr ? . Jollio applied to Constable Coonoy for aid In search of her child ho informed her that ho had overheard a conversation not long since that referred to Amelia Jollio , and through this information ho was very quickly the means of uniting the long separated mother nnd daughter. Mrs. Jollio , who has for all these years re mained single in thohopoof a reconcilia tion , has accumulated a considerable fortune by land speculation in Helena , Mont. , and Ocrdcn , Utah. She says that she has spent a large bum in sceklm : the lost child. Mother nnd daughter left for the west this afternoon.

Amongst the many hospitable farms and haciendas that I visited , xvo may take as iv favorable specimen Senora Isidora Couslno's largo and beautiful estate nt Macul , aenr Santiago , which is rather , perhaps , n model farm than a commercial enterprise , writes T. W. Child In Harper's Magazine. The whole hacienda comprises 500 cuadras irrigated und 700 cuadras of mountain land with out irrigation. Foity cuadras are de voted to vines , which produce over 3-30- 000 litres a year ; a certain portion is allotted to raising wheat , barley and oats for homo consumption ; a consider able space is laid out as a park , with very line and picturesque ornamental gardens , nnd the rest is given up to alfalfa and grazing. The stud farm at Macul is important , and the stock consists of imported Clydesdale , Per- choron , Cleveland , Anglo-Norman and thoroughbred racing stock , including a Yankee trotter , in all , about n hundred horses and nearly two hundred cows , bred from thoroughbred imported French and English Durhams. This es tablishment being rather an exceptional one from many points of view , you might expect to find the farm laborers treated xvith the same care as the. cattle. But no. They receive the usual sixty-live paper cents a day , xvith food and lodging gratis. The lodging consists of rooms in an adobe building , with a beaten earth floor , or a cane hut plastered over with mud , while the food is composed of a daily ration of two pounds of bread in the morning , and at raid-day an unlimited quantity of beans cooked in grease. That is all ; the laborer receives neither tea nor coffee , much less boor or xvinc. The laborers who xvork permanently on the farm all the year round , instead of being lodged in barracks , have a cottage - tago nnd a bit of land , xvhich they are alloxx-ed to cultivate for their own profit ; but in return for this privilege they have to xvork at the rate of 55 cents a day , or furnish a substitute. The labor ers of this class arc called "inquillnos , " and nro considered to be the stand-by of every farm , because their services can bo counted on from year's end to year's end. Their cottages and plots are in variably situated on the outskirts of nn estate , at intervals one from the other , so that , together with their families , they form the natural guardians and xvatclimen of the hacienda.

A SUUMA1UNK 5IOTOU. Invention or a Kansiui byVtiloh Hn Hopes to Revolutionize Things. Cheap poxvor has been long looked for as a possibility. The attention of the American people , x\-as at one time directed toxvard Keely expecting ho might bo able to accomplish this desired result. The inx'ontion above rofcrcd to is a submarine current water motor , invented by J.V. . Hilo of our city , snys the Farm ers' Vindicator of Valley Falls , Kan. It is propelled by the natural current of running water. No dam is required for this motor. In xvide shalloxv streams , it is simply necessary to drive a sullicieut number of piles to throw the current , on one side or near the center in loxv water. In largo streams thcs-o motors xvill fur nish any required amount of power. They are placed in the water below freezing point nnd drift xx-ood , nnd nro easily anchored. Mr. Hllo has made and tested two machines which have proven successful beyond a question. Of all the various schemes which have been ottered to utilise the power in the watersJof the Niagara , in point of econ omy , none have been offered that xvill compare with these motors. A line of these motors placed in the current above the falls would furnish faufllciout power for the state of Now York. Two or more motors placed just below or between the piers of the St. Louis bridge xvould furnish ample power for electric lights , pumping water and all the poxver necessary for the manufactur ing interests in St. Louis at a compara tively trilling expense. As a tidal power machine those motors have no equal. It matters not whether the tide is going out or coming in , the motor will turn in the same direction. The water resist ance in carrying the peddles up fetreum , is only one horse power , in a 250 horse poxvor machine. Unquestionably these motors offer the cheapest available power known. The inventor is a practical engineer and wo believe the invention is ono of the most important of modern times. The Best Man In the World.

The bunches of grass in the middle of the lake , the trees lining its bordersand the bold mountains in the background are reflected so clearly nnd so vividly that in a photograph it is difficult to tell \\-hich is the real picture and xvhich is the imago , the xrntor itself appearing like n thin sheet soperating the txvo antipodal - ' tipodal x'iews. It is under the guidance of Major Galen Clark , superintendent of the valley , that the lake is seen to best advantage , as ho knows all the best points of vioxv , and is armed xvith a slightly concave looking- glass , which makes the scene doubly a mirror lake. Is'o oil-painting could equal in beauty the miniature x-icws of sub- aquatic landscape shown in this glass in nil the natural colors the blue sky rest ing on the gray and white rocks and the dark green trees showing ex-ery brunch and every needle xvith perfect distinct ness. The climax comes when the sun besrins to peep from behind the mountain summits , which hero hide it an hour longer than in the lower x-alley. In Mr. Clark's mirror it looks like a largo elec tric light , whose dazzle throws the mir ror views of sky , mountain nnd forest into a gloomy shade , making the scene like a dream of the loxvor xvorld. Wo had to keep on the move constantly to keep the sun in view , yet not too high , nnd I never before realized how quickly the sun does travel , or how the conformation of the mountain ridges can make it seemingly go noxv to the loft , now to the right. When the sun had climbed too high to bo looked nt comfortably , oven in a mirror , a breeze suddenly arose and obliterated the scenery painted on the lake's surface. Just at that moment two wagon loads of tourists arrived from the hotel ; they had known as well as xvo that Mir ror lake nfter sunrise is nothing but an ordinrry pond , but had lingered too long over breakfast or between their bhcots. Such is the average tourist , traveling hundreds of miles and enduring the fa tigues of staging to see a world-famous scene , and then missing it all for a. few more bites of tough beef steak !

"Tho dog sxvam anxiously , excitedly , fixing hit ) eyes upon the group of men nnd the low uhoro. Only about thirty yards more , and If all wont xvoll the doj ? wotld bo bafo. The alligator changed his tactics. Ho would dip his snout slightly under the xvator , and In n wrig gling way xvould muko astonishing spurts , but did not fceoin to decrease the dlbtaco. After each spurt the alligator seemed to lose a little ground , the very little. At ilfteon yards from the bank the size of the monster could bo obtl- muted. Ho xvns more thim three yards in length. Every atom of energy was exercised by both. Cries rang out by the men. The excitement b gan to in tensify the alligator xvas gaining. The brute did not notice the anxious specta tors on the shore. Suddenly a report was hoard. It xvas a shot nt the alli gator from a fowling-piece. Heedless of the noise , the contestants In the race kept on. Only a few feet nnd the dog would bo a victim ! "In vain did the retriever try to lengthen the distance , to no purpose. The alligator was now gaining inch by inch. The dog xvas becoming inspired possibly with too much fear , for ho made several piteous yelping appeals for help. Seven yards nearer tno bank , hovon yards from the goal of hope- and life for the dog , and fatill the race xvas going on with grim determination , Every hunter had his fowling-pleco ready to dlbchargo at the alligator as soon as ho could do it Kifely , The dog touched the sloping , water-covered bank of the stream , and , xvlth a xvlld cry of de light from the sportsmen and a yelp of joy from the dog , ho soon xvas bounding on the shore. The determination of the alligator was so great that lie stranded on the bank , but ho rested there only for a moment , Several charges of shot xvoro poured Into him in n volley. Ho turned aulckly and , xvlth a spring , hushed the ecnor water nnd dived Into the depths of tlio fatrenm. " Tickets at lowest rates and superior accommodations via the great Hock Island routo.
