THE ..COLUMBIA RULES i . * \ Uncle Sam Has the Fastest „Vessel. Afloat. , THE COLUMBIA WARSHIP. Faster Thau Anything 1 Hereto fore. Built. B oston , N ov .. 18.—The C o I uitl bia to-day fairly won the title “ Queen of ' the 1 Ocean.” Faster than ever sped1 warship or ' mér chant vessel, she steamed from- Cape Ann to Cape Porpoise on her trip .with, the United States board of inspection on board. Hi r average speed for 88 knots wa' 22.81 knots an. hour, but she ✓ * steamed 7f knots of the run at a rate averaging 25.03 knots an hour It was a magnificent display of speed. By her little four hour spiu she won for. her builders, William Cramp & Son, the neat bonus of $350,500. At sunrise the members of the board and Cramp and his party appeared at the head of Lewis wharf ready to start for the ship.,.A light breeze prevailed: which looked threaening, but the day turned out fine. The ship made a false start and Cramp or deredlier back fora new run. One boiler was then foaming. When she got back a mile beyond the Dolphin, the starting boat, she. turned and pointed her nose once more,on the course. As she near ed the half o f her trip her speed ¡was tremendous. ‘“'This is going 25 1 5 now,” said Mr. Cramp in a matter of fact way, ‘‘and' I guess we can get another knot out-of her if you ain't satis fled;” “ Well, I ’m satisfied,” said Com modore Walker. “ She’s a hum mer.” Never ship was built' that equalled the tremendous volocity which the Columbia now attained. It was not an easy task to stand on the dëck and face the gale which resulted from the onward sweeping of the mighty ship.; The bells o f the engine room mingled nierrily as Captain Sargent de manded that every ounce of steam be turned into the great cylinders. The Columbia had covered the last 7£ knots at the Tate ’ of 25.31 knots p,er hour, or a little better than 30 miles1, an average since the start had been made of 22.92 knots, per hour. She took a long turn seaward on the star board helm-before returning over the course. The time occupied in theturn was not counted in the trial. . - ' A t 12:14:56 she crossed the line on her return. The wind was now dead ahead and blowing 12 knots an hour. The velocity it attained on the.deck of the Columbia must have been in the neighborhood of .35 knots. The ship was reeling off a 24.77 knot gait, and one of the 1 patent log lines could not stand i he strain and was carried away; There was a commotion in the en- .iimeYoom and evey light went out., and when the lights were re stored the engines were set at work turning off 138 revolutions a minute. The speed rose to 23| knots almost immediately, and when.'the Kearsarge’s crew got into the rigging and cheered her as she sped by, she.was at a steady 23 knot gait. Her time on the course, 88 knots, was 8 hours, 51 minutes, 48 seconds. - ■ ■ -^1 fc» “America’.-» Wonder lauds.” Attention has been called1 to this beautiful and interesting book, and it is with great pleasure and confidence that it is recom mended to prolessors, school teachers and the public generally. From beginning-to end “ America’s Wonderland^is replete with in struction to the old and the young; rich with intresting legepd, thrill ing story and daring adventure-in the developement and progress of our native land. It is an illustrat ed and*, descriptive encyclopaedia of American scenery, containing over 500 magnificent, photographic views, many of which are in all the natural colors of the scenes, interspersed with living incident* among the Indians and the wild and rugged recesses of our coun try; and the very nature and char acteristics of the work appeal with special force to the patriotic senti ment of every true American heart.. The book is a veritable work of wonder. The study of such a work as this more than equal a trip across the continent, for here we may pause over every ipicture until we take in the 'min utest detail, whereas in passing over the continent we can get but the briefest glance. The descrip tive portion reads like a romance of fairy land. “ America’s Won derlands” ought to -be' in every house in America.XSan Jose Daily Mercury. , . Iowa’s Vote.

I am a protectionist because I . believe the protective, system is' best adapted to our conditioris and ’ citizenship. It doqs everything which a revenue tariff can do, and , vastly more. It supplies needed revenue—a revenue tariff can do no more. It accomplishes this end with equal, if not- greater, certainty than a revenue tariff, and while doing this it wisely dis criminates in favor of American interests, and is ever mindful of the welfare of the American peo ple. It protects our own pioducts against those of the alien and the ' stranger, while the domestic con sumer is secured reasonable prices . through domestic competition'. It ' diversifiés the employments and* multiplies the opportunities of our people; secures an unrivaled wages for labor. It encourages skill and genius to their highest activity, and under its operation we have reached the foremost rank, in invention and mechanism, and the widèst individual and nation- , al prosperity. It favors the United . States, and is the true , friend of every American girl and boy struggling upward. It builds up; it never pulls down., W . M c K inley , J r . C anton ,'O hio , July 10, 1891. Wolves on the Rauge. Mr. Haultain has been making preliminary arrangements with the members of the legislative as sembly looking toward the stamp ing out of the wolf pest on the stock ranges. Messrs. Magrath, Lethbridge; Haultain, Macleod; Lineham and C.tyley, Calgary; and Twéed. Medicine Hat, each con tributed the sum of $300 from their district votes and Dr. Brett, Banff, supplemented the .amount by an additional $100, thus, provid ing $1,600 as a fund to pay for bounties on the destruction of wolves. This sum is~ looked upon as being ample for the présent, as if all the funds are used the loss.of 30Q wolvès Throughout the/ stock* country will be fully compensated by the increase in the number of . calves and colts next year. A number of the large stock firms are offering the use of horses and- providing equipment, quarters and food to such of their men as would otherwise be'without work during the winter, now the roundup is over, and who undertake to devote their time .to wolf hunting. The bonus of $5 which it is expected will be given for every fresh pelt brought in will be an inducement to prosecule the hunt* with energy. ». The details are not yet- completed but will be so in a short time.— Cálgary Herald. /
