Tha government has given sufficient attention te lb general geology of tha country, however, te afford a geed grasp en tha distribution of the Iren ores, and the geolegiata have also defined tbe character of the ores se well as te direct the explorers accurately te tha profitable fields. "Tba new Gogebic dlstric, which pro duced L022 tens la 1884, Increased te 111.601 tens In 1886 aad Increased this foarfeld In 1880, has been tbe scene of unparalleled de velopments, and tbe same Is true of tbe Ver million district of Minnesota. Tbe confidence with which capital baa been invested in tbesa new clalma Is dna te the advice of tha geolo gists te extend tha mines In this direction. That tbe new mines are tbe result and net the cause of tba laereased production of iron and steel Is shown by the Increased Imports of Spanish ores during the laat year ae the result or higher price. "This shows that tbe remedy for prospective exhaustion Is still further exploration for tbe mines te which tha geologist points In vari ous parts of tba country. Many or tbe large deposits nave been neglected as net suited for making steel by the ordinary acid pro cess, and In ether tbe percentage of iron la net attractive. But much attention will un doubtedly be given te these ores within the next four years. This tendency Is seen at one locality In Tennessee by tbe Increase from 70,775 long tens In 18S1 te 1)1,319 long tens In 1885, and even the siliceous ores at Cornwall, Pa., show Increased use."

A Deeert,Quebec, dispatch te the Glebe aaya that aeme weeks age tha Rev. Father Poeller, who la connected with theTemlscamlngue colenisation and settle ment company, went te visit tha lumber camps in the wilderness north of here te In vestigate reports that have long been ta cir culation or tha terrible treatment te which women are subjected In that region. He says tbe full truth baa net bean told and never will be, Ha will apply te tha government for eld in breaking up tba dens of vice which abound In every lumbar camp along tbe upper Ottawa. Four months In tba year tbe loggers make their homes la tba camp. Gradually here and there throughout the vast tracts or wilderness rough beard beuses have been built te serve ss places for dealing out whisky and tobacco and as resorts for the rgugb loggers. Female eeclety was entirely absent at first but one by one tha owners of these place, secured abandoned women as Inmates. These bourns thrived and multiplied aa the demand Increased, Intelligence ofileea have been pressed Inte service te find material te fill tbe ranks. In one case it Is known tbat tbe remale keeptr or an Intelligence office In Montreal was de coying young girls by premise of easy lives te tble section. Seme of tba glrla escaped and tbe story of their experience produced aucb sn effect tbat tbat branch of tbe Intelli gence office business waa closed and tbe keeper arrested. The dens are boles of violence and Iniquity. Tba keepers are des perados. Tbe Inmates In part are unfor tunate girls wbe have been allured te tbe Ufa of suffering and many of wbem are prac tically prisoners. Father Poeller aaya there are 200 women in the camps of wbem prob ably half are net ever 24 years old and In some cases net ever 17. Aa far aa known ever a dozen have died se far this season from rough usage and disease. One girl told Father Poeller that she was hired in Rich mond, Qua, te go te the north te work as a waitress in a restaurant ; that she wss met at Desert by ber employer snd taken te Gil Gil meur'a camp 40 miles te tbe northwest. The camp was composed or about 100 shanties inhabited by 400 men. There were 18 ether girls there. The first night she wss out. raged, and from tbat time her life bad bet n one of vice snd servitude. She wss taken te Desert by the reverend father and eent borne mere dead than alive. It Is probable tbat tbe government will at once put a step te the abuse.
