Public attention ba» often been
drawn tu the alarming rate at which
the coal auppllea of the world and ea
peciaTly of Great Britain arc being «x
initiated. It I» not so generally realised
that Iron ore deposits are disappearing
at an equally If not even more rapid
rate. The leading manufacturing na
tlon» <>f Europe bave used up their
beat ore biallea and are casting i4»>ut
for foreign sources of supply. This
state of tilings exists also In the Unit
ed States. Not long ago Pennsylvania
■ lid the eastern portion of the state of
New York furnished a great part of
the ore used In the states. These de
posits are practically worked out. For
a number of years the Immense beds
on the southern shores of I.ake Supe
rlor have been worked, the output be­
ing remarkably rich In the percentage
of metal, yet such Is the rate of ex­
haustion that, according to recent com
putations, this vast store, so far as the
better qualities of ore are concerned,
will not last more than forty or fifty
years. It has been reckoned that there
are 1,000,000,000 tons of high quality.
Over 25,000,000 tons are taken out an
nually, so that after forty years what
Is left will be at depths which will
greatly Increase the coat of production.
In the northern states of the Union
manufacturers already foresee the time
when they may have to rely on the
Iron ores of the Dominion of Canada.—

at the exhibition. The place was
thronged during the entire session to
examine the beautiful creations in
Parisian effects and to listen to the
technical lectures given. The general
secretary of the society, A. C. Pearson,
had this to say in regard to the new
styles, and it will probably tie of inter­
est to those who would rather la* “out
of the world than out of the fashion”:
“Novelties of the coming season—and
there are some startling ones—will be
principally in cut and color. In fabrics
tlie drift is toward even greater con­
servatism than has ruled in past sea­
sons. In the creation of new modes it
frequently happens that some histori­
cal period is selected, designs for gar­
ments being based upon costumes of
that day worn not only by women, but
also by men. But no particular style
lias been followed for this autumn and
winter season, the tendency having
been to take a little of the best from
various periods. Thus the fashions of
the reigns of Louis XIV, Louis XV and
Louis XVI will reappear in some new
garment, particularly in silk coats.”

Quay'« SlnnlHcnnt Visit.
The late Senator Quay was a secre­
tive man, and as a consequence Ids
coinings and goings seemed mysterious
to the newspaper men and others who
were compelled to keep tali on his
movements, says the New York Trib­
une. He frequently Journeyed from
Washington to Philadelphia and re

friends lieing the wiser for it.
One morning he arrived at the Quak
er City early, and a reporter who
knew him intimately said, "Senator, is
there any signifleauce attadied to your
visit here today?"
“Yes," said tlie senator, lowering his
voice and looking shrewd; "there are
deep significance and Importance."
Tlie reporter'» Interest was aroused
nt once. "Might I ask what the busi­
ness is?”
"Certainly.” replied the senator. "1

E. It. Thomas, the millionaire owner
of race horses, was talking at Saratoga
about game losers.
“As game a loser as I ever saw,” he
said, “went to the Prix de Paris some
two or three years ago. He was a St.
Josepli mnn. nnd lie liet on the grand
prize every cent that tie had with him.
He bet, of course, on the wrong horse.
L'Aigle Noir, as th« animal he picked
was called, proved to lie the slowest
entry booked.
"But the St. Joseph mnn, with ruin
staring him in the face, watched the
rnce from start to finish with loud
laughter. From the beginning his horse
was last, nnd from the beginning lie
shouted:
