Canada's Flagship
Has Narrow Escape
When Hits Ledges
New Navy Nearly Loses Half It
Strength Goes Ten Miles Under
Own Power After Accident.
HALIFAX. July Sl.-The new Canadian
navy was nearly deprived of half Its
strength today when the flagship Nlnbe
crashed on tha ledces southwest of Cape
Pable. Four hours later It was floated,
leaking; badly, and the vessel proceeded
under Its own power to Shag harbor, ten
miles away, where It Is at anchor, with
six fathom of water and a soft mud
bottom under It.
The first to reach the side of the dis
abled cruiser was the United States revenue
cutter Androscoggin, which was cruising
In the vicinity. The Nlobe's wireless call
for help was rlrkfid up by the Androscog
gin, which promptly flashed back that It
would stand by to help. Through a dense
fog and heavy sea which Is believed to
have been the cause of the Nlobe's acci
dent, the Androscoggin rushed, and was
standing by the Canadian cruiser when the
Canadian government's Iady Laurler and
Stanley, which hnd been sent to the scene,
arrived from St. John, N. B., with the tug
McNaughton of Yarmouth.
The Nlobe, however, found that It was
able to take care of Itself. Although water
was pouring Into several compartments,
its pumps kept It fairly clear, and Com
mander McDonald of the cruiser, express
ing his thanks to the Amerlran cutter for
its help, proceeded to a safe harbor, con
voyed only by the tug.
WILL PREVENT GAMBLING
AT REGISTRATION POINTS
Local Official Notified that State
Will Act If They Fall to Do
Their Daly.
PIERRE. 8. V., July 31.-(Speclal.)-At
former land registrations at different places
In this state, the gambling element has
thrived at the expense of those who
gathered to register. 3. W. Wltten. the
government representative In charge of the
work, Is determined that this shall not
be the case In the registrations for
Mellette and Bennett county lands, and has
called upon the state authorities to assist
In the work. After a conference on the
part of Governor Vessey and Attorney
General Johnson, they have decided to call
upon the local authorities to use every
means to prevent gambling at registration
points, and have further notified such local
authorities that any complaints in regard
to gambling at that time will mean the
sending of a special prosecutor from the
attorney general's department to take up
the matter of law enforcement, and that
the local authorities will be held responsi
ble for any failures on their part which
will require action on the part of the state
legal department, which may be caused
by their failure or neglect to enforce
gambling laws. In other words all the
power of the state executive and legal de
partments will be turned loose on the
situation where the local authorities are
either unable or unwilling to cope with the
situation.
STEEL CARS AND STEEL TRAINS
Recollections of Chan re In the Fas-eager-Carrying
Equipment
of Railroad.
In a recent isue of The Northwestern, the
little employes' journal published by the
railroad whose colloquial name it bears,
there is printed a reproduction of a copper
etched poster gotten-out in 1S77 to adver
tise the introduction of the "Hotel Car" on
the run to Dubuque. It shows an old fash
ioned Pullman interior, with the slarttlng
upper berths, the engrossed celling, the
ornamental iron braces and the general
evidences of our first reachlngs-out into the
realms of the heavily ornate. At the dining-car
tables Is a remarkable row of nota
bles, Including among others Dom Pedro,
Col lis P. Huntington, John A. Logan, Sam
uel J. Tllden, "Lucky" Baldwin, Jim Flood
and General Pleasanton. They serve to
make illustrious the "Hotel Car" which
Is a diner, a day coach and a sleeper com
binedand also to emphasise the advertise
ment of the fact that It la run over "steel
rails."
The old poster is Interesting because it
Illustrates the rapidity of passenger serv
ice development. Steel rails were worth ad
vertising In the day of the "Hotel Car."
In 1881. according to Poor's Manual, there
were 81,471 miles of iron rails to but 48,891
of steel. In 1909 there were 331.935 miles of
steel to a dwindling of 8,862 of Iron.
And as the "Hotel Car" and the steel rail
were the wonders of their day, so, for the
moment. Is the steel passenger car the
wonder of today. The public hears of this
latest and highest development In trans
portation equipment only when some road
puts on an "all steel train" and adver
tises It, as the Illinois Central advertised
the "Daylight Special" to St. .Louis, which
made its first run recently; or as the St.
Paul emphasized the start of the "Colum
bian" and "Olympian," the two through
"all steel" trains to Puget sound.
But as a matter of fact the manufacture
of steel cars goes on all the time, both
on these roads anl on others. The New
York Central and the Pennsylvania, lead
er In the use of solid steel trains, seem
spurred on to further steel construction by
their splendid new depots in New York.
The Great Western prefers steel for mak
ing up its best train to the north. The
Northwestern is turning out steel day
coaches and the Illinois Central steel sleep
ers, and so on.
By leaps and strides the railroads are ad
vancing the safety of their passengers. For
there la no doubt that an all steel train
can go through a smash-up almost free
of the terrible danger of telescoping. It
is equally clear that the fire peril the
worst accompaniment of a railroad wreck
la practically abolished. In dally use, too,
a steel car will move with a swinging
smoothness noticeably better than the rat
tling Instability of a wooden coach.
All this coats. Take, for example, the
"Olympian" and "Columbian." They seem
to the public merely two trains. But, as a
matter of fact, the seventy-two hour sched
ule to the coast require equipment for ten
complete trains. So for the dally opera
tion of this lordly pair the road had to
buy eighty-four coaches, forty twelve-section
sleepers, eighteen ten-section sleepers,
eighteen tourist sleepers, two all-compartment
sleepers, twenty-eight baggage cars,
eighteen baggage and mall cars, twenty
diners, four parlor cars, two chair cars
and nine buffet-observatloa- cars Just 248
cars in all. Mr. Blason Thompson in his
"Railway Statistics for 1910" , quotes the
price of all-steel cars at from 83.623 to
816,994.
In addition to the heavy cost of con
struction there are added costs of opera
tion. The cars are at least one-third
heavier than the old style coach. This
means that more fuel Is needed to haul
them. Whether these costs are to be com
pensated for by economy In repair and
"length of Ufe" remain to be seen.
The average unenlightened layman may
Identify a steel car by the rivet that show
along the sides. Some of them have a
new elliptical roof like that on an English
ear In place of the familiar American
clerestory roof. But the rivet I tha only
unfailing mark of Identification. Chicago

CATTLE There was a very ft"1 of
cattle this morning, but still receipts were
short of the run last Monday by 1.000
head, and smaller than a year ago
by 3,500 head. Receipt this morning con
sisted very largely of range cattle, there
being several good choice strings of that
kBuyersBwere all out in the yards In good
season In the morning, looking for beef
steers and anything at all suitable to kill
sold very readily at good steady to strong
prices. The trade might be summed us a
good steady and active market. As high
as 86.75 was paid for cornfed steers, but
the supply of cattle of that description was
very light, most of the beeves on sale being
western greasers, .
Cows and heifers were also In very good
A am and thin morning and they, too,
changed hands in good season in the morn
ing! Spayed heifers from the range sold
at 85.25. ... . .
Stock cattle and teeners were

pretty much everything that had any kill
fully steady and as high aa 84.85 was paid

HOGS It wa another choppy, get-out-well-lf-you-can
market In the hog yard.
Shipping order still continued to cut a
big figure in the trade and It was largely
due to a healthy demand from this quarter
tarly that prices opened higher. Quite a
little business was done during opening
rounds at big nickel advances, the main
market ruling about 6c higher and closing
u.1... mail at and near the finish
of the ession showed little. If any, im
provement over fcaiuraay average.
Hog with quality, suitable for shipment,
moved with a greater degree of freedom
than any other cla. producing a market
prior to W o'clock that wa fairly active.
The cloae, a Implied, wa late, dull and
drKKy
Stlpplle were light, only seventy-five
loads being yarded. Of this estimate hlp
per and speculator purchaed fully 40 per
cent, about thirty-two load. The average
advance wa ahown more plainly In cot
cf packer' drove than In price for hip
ping grade. the latter branch of the
trade was relatively high Saturday.
Ordinary run of butcher hog old at and
near t.io. bulk ranging from 3S-60 to 84-78.
Choice light brougnt usual premiums, tops
reaching 17.00-

pilc.hi 'lii urst big run of sheep and
lambs of the season arrived, about eighty
four loads showing up In all. Practically
everything rame irotn range and right
around ou per cent of the 20.000 estimate
had plenty of flesh to qualify aa killer.
Idaho and Wyoming furnished the big
end of the supply and sheep arrival out
numbered lamhs by a ratio of about five
to three. Classified, receipts consisted of
something like thirty losds of lambs, thirty
loads of wethers, ten loads of yearlings,
and an odd dosen loads of ewes.
Several conditions caused considerable
delay In opening the trade and It was well
along toward noon before much business
had been done. Even at midday It was
rather difficult to draw price distinctions
as the market was plainly an all-dav af
fair. Buyer fully appreciated the advan
tage a heavy run afforded, and after
offerings had been properly sorted Into
fat and feeder string, started out to pur
chase all classes of stoek on a lower basis.
Chicago supply had slxe enough to encour
age bearlrh efforts and early trade settled
at lOffiiOc declines.
Wethers had to be good to land around
8.160, and the bent article growers are able
to produce would hardly get a bid better
than f.1.7S. Ewes sold st limited margins
under wethers. 1'earl ngs moved around and
under I4.&0. Indicating a quotable top of
84.75. Lamb were decidedly uneven, good
ones selling at 16.60 and less. Extreme
limit was placed at 86.75 by most of the
talent.
Country buyers were In good sttendance
and the demand from speculators and
through commission men was also fairly
hrsd. Thrifty feder move readllv ffer
trade once started, prlcea ruling steady to
possibly some lower.

Crop Conditions
in the Black Hills
Drouth Completely Broken and Orai
ing Lands Are Again Available
Sowinj for Fall Feed Betjins. .
BELLE FOURCHE. 8. D.. July SI. (Spe
cial.) The Uellefourche river, which has
been dry for the last month owing to the
continued drouth, Is running full of water
at this time, the result of heavy rains
which have occurred In this part of the
country, and west of here. The rains have
filled all of the stock watering holes In
this section of the state, and have mada
grazing lands which could not before be
used again available. While the western
country has suffered to some extent from
the dry weather, there are thousands of
acres which are Irrigated and will yield
the usual quota of feed.
In the last two weeks rains have bean
frequent, and where other crops have been
planted earlier the farmers are getting
ready to bow corn, cane and millet, with
the Idea of getting plenty of fall feed. It
Is the general opinion that the drouth Is
now over.
The stock situation is not at all bad.
While the graxlng country up to this time
has been very short of grass, the herds
have been moved, and if there Is late pas
ture, which now seems certain. It will be
In good condition to go through the win
ter. The usual shipments of grass fattened
cattle will be light, and the shipments ot
stock cattle and feeders will be heavier,
but most of the herds will be kept in the
country. The clip of wool was very heavy
this spring, shipments from this city alone
being nearly 2,000,000 pounds, and it was
nearly 1,000,000 pounds from other points
In this part of the state. Sheep
are In good condition and now that they
can be moved again, the water hole being
filled, the situation will be much better. ,
Town Without Water;
No Relief in Sight
Big Ponds on Which Charlotte, N. C,
Depends for Supply Stretches of
Sun-Baked Mud.
CHARLOTTE. N. C. July Jl.-With tbe
big ponds which have furnished Charlotte's
water supply for many years mere
stretches of sun-baked mud and the
stopcocks to the small supply In the
reservoir shut down tight since Friday, this
city is undergoing serious distress. The
danger of disease and destruction by fire
Is growing every hour.
No rain of consquence has fallen In this
section in many weeks. With the famine
of water the sewerage system has been
abandoned and this has brought about such
a menace to health that stringent sanitary
regulations have been adopted. Special
sanitary guards are being sworn in every
day to patrol the city, along with squads
of extra firemen, for the city would be
absolutely at the mercy of the flames
should a blase start.
Hundreds are leaving Charlotte, flock
ing to the seashore and mountain resorts.

In these days of high priced lumber the
utilisation of the small pieces of wood
formerly considered of little or no value
assume considerable Importance. The
Woodworker gives a number of uses for
these scraps.
Some furniture makers glue together
small, clear pieces down to one Inch wide
and one foot long and find that they
erva very well for the interior framework
of bureaur. chlffontera, sideboards and
similar articles.
Wheelwrights save the ends cut from
spokes and shape them in lathes for ohlsrl
gimlet, auger and other small tool hsn
dles. Wagon builders occasionally make
use of scraps of hardwoods for lining

Cooper recut broken or defective
staves of the larger sixes and make kegs
or smaller vessels of them. Small head
ings are economically manufactured In
that way. Occasionally defective staves
and headings sre made Into dowels. Bas
ket makers save the cores from whldi
veneer has been eut and saw them into
thin slats for baskets and crate covers.
Brush manufacturers have made some
headway in using waste from furniture
factories, but the pieces are of so many
sixes and of such Irregular shapes that
porch chair shop ha been able to draw a
conalderable part of its raw material
from the waste of boat factories.
Some of the maker on Interior finish

Into small boxes and the hardwood scraps
are made into parquet floorings. PlanJng
mills work scraps and broken pieces, un
salable in that form. Into boxes for ap
