quence the money for the third story
would have to bo provided by the
association through popular subscrip
tion or some other method.
To raise the necessary amount at
.this time and for the rooms proposed
would be a difficult undertaking Is
felt by prominent members of the
association, and seemingly there Is
now a willingness to forego the plan.
In the opinion of Judge Lowell,
I chairman of the association com-
mittee, M 0,000 Is too large an amount
I to raise for the purpose, though he
says the committee will take the
matter up when Mayor Fee returns
and see If there Is any hopes of car
rying out the project.

WELL AT TEIAX'ASET.
Third Well In Eastern Oregon for O.
O. & N. Company.
I The well fever has a firm grip on
I eastern Oregon municipalities and the
O. R. & X. as well, and before the
latter has finished, a deep 'Well or ar
tesian wll, if possible, will be sunk
at a point between La Grande and
Baker City, says the La Grande Ob-
1 server. Present Indications point to
Telocaset as the location for this
! third well the railroad company Is to
dig In eastern Oregon. The, La
Grnnde well Is meeting demands up
on it, the Huntington well Is now fin
ished and is a wonder for supplying
deep well water, and now the Telo
caset well Is to be dug.
v The city of Huntington has, after
careful consideration and inspection
of the railroad well already there,
decided that the city cannot be with
out a similar one, and consequently
will commence digging at once.

liethlehoj. Pa., Aug. 21. This is
the 85th birthday of John Fritz, iron
master and Inventor, famous for sis
perfection of armor plate processes,
and one of the grand old men In the
iron and steel Industry. A flood of
congratulatory messages were receiv
ed at his home In this city. Among
the senders were leading members of
(lie engineering profession In Ameil-
ca and Eiii'bpe, captnlns of Invention
nd Industry and the central figures
of finance allied with the Iron trade.
John Fritz is the nestor of the Iron
trade In America. Ho began life as
blacksmith in 1838. and in his long
caroer has Docn loeniiuea wmi in
most every Important step in tno pro
cess of making iron and steel, which
has resulted in an Increase of the
American product of a million tons
In 1838 to upwards of 25.000,000 in

Steel company, of which he was the
chief engineer and superintendent
frnm 1880 to 1893.
Mr. Frlta is a striking example 01
the typical American, born or poor
parents, who were solid, substantial
nnfl nod-fcarlng. With only a district
school education; gained in the mid
dle 'part of Pennsylvania, he startea
life with the stimulus ana opportuni
ty that American citizenship gives,
ild' attained a position in me steei
Industry that is recognized By tne
whole world. He is the only man now
living of the small group that Intro
duced InW the United States the Bes
semer steel process. A great eco-
nnniipAl revolution was tnereDy et-
fo-tod. from which has flowed me
tremendous development seen today
In, tecl manufocture in tne unnea
States. The leading men In the in
dustry today are the pupils of John
Fritz. , . ' . . ;
In 1893 the British iron, ana oicci
Institute gave Mr. Fritz the Bessemer
gold medal, which Is atout me inki
est distinction a steelmaker can re
ceive. In 190Z, on me sum mmw
of Mr. Fritz, the occasion was sig
nalized by the founding, of the John
Fritz gold medal for acmevemeui ...
v.. inrinntrlal sciences, the medal be-
ing awarded annually by a committee
of the American society 01 -
glnears. the American nocitiiy "i
These Inventions started an economi
cal revolution In steel manufacture.
In the early days of the Bethlehem
Iron works the newly discovered pro
cess of making steel by blowing air
through melted cast ' Iron reached
America, and outside of the few per
sons engaged in the experimental
plant at Troy, N. Y there was none
more Interested In the study of the
process than Mr. Fritz. His experi
ments wars conducted to a most suc
cessful Issue.
Mr. Fritz played an Important part
In the upbuilding of the Iron and
steel Industry in eastern Pennsylvania
only to see the center of steel produc
tion shift to the westward, under the
magnetic attraction of the ore sup
ply. But he is of tho opinion that
this tendency Is not to be continued
uninterruptedly. He says that some
rtnv the east is again to become a
great iron and steel district. His pre
diction is based upon his faith in the
extensive ore resources of New Tork
N'ew Jersev and Cuba, and In the per
fection of the concentration and
roasting process. This unusual pre
diction gains weight when consider
tlon Is given to the accuracy with
which Mr. Frits has forecasted other
industrial movements.- Twenty years
ago he expressed the belief that tho
Bessemer stcelmaklng process in
America was gradually to decline,
and the basic open hearth process
would finally become supreme. The
latter was then an Insignificant fac
tor In steel production, but the ten
dency of the present is unmistakably
as he predictod. t , .
