Mr. Tildeu’s Iron Mine of Mich-
igan.
Retarsing to the Marquette iron
center, we are able to count 20 difierut
mines, within a radius of eight miles
around Ishpeming, which city has been
built within a short time. Niue years
ago, where there are now regularly laid
out streets, and many fine buildings
there was nothing but a marsh. As
one mine after another has been devel
oped, |>opulatiou has been drawn liiih-
or. Many of the principal business
men are from the New England
States. The miners, who comprise the
bulk of the population,ure mainly from
Sweden and other European countries,
and make excellent citizens. They
support schools and churches, and are
generally free from the vices which
prevail in some mining regions. The
mines nearest to Ishpeming are the
New York, Lake Superior, Bui mini,
and the Cleveland. The New York
mine is better known through the coun
try as the Tilden mine, Mr. Sam’l J.
Tilden being now almost the sole owu-
er. There is an interesting story c- •linec-
ted with the opening of this mine.
Nearly twenty years ago, a Mr. A. R.
Harlow whs the head clerk for the ad
joining Cleveland mini. O11 adjusting

forty acres on which the Compa
ny had been paying tuxes as a part of

a small sum, and afierwaids leased it

for a period of years to the New York
Iron Milling Company, organized in
1865, with Mr. Tilden at its head.
Subsequently Mr. W. L. Wetmore as
sumed the management of the mine,
Mr. Tilden furui hitig tliu funds. Dif
ferences arose between them, were car
ried into the Courts, and are still un -
adjusted.
We ascended the ladders to the mine
and groped about the dark passages,
under the guide of a miner, who seem
ed to have a morbid relish for designa
ting spots wltere various workmen hud
been killed at different times “Here,”
said he, as we entered one chamber
about twenty feet high, “a man was
killed the other day by a piece of rock
falling from the ceiling and striking
him on the head.” On our inquiiiug
if there was danger of any other pi« ces
dropping, he replied . “Oh, yes, tin y
liable to drop at any tinn ; we ail ha\’e
to take our clmnoes.” After this cheer
ful announcement, we did not tarry
very long in that quarter But there
was a sad story in some poor fellow’s
death connected with every division of
the mine we enter, i lmve \isited mines
in Pennsylvania and elsewhere but
there was a feeling of insecurity and
danger here which I hud not before
experienced. Still there is a fascination
clout the life of the miners, and they
rarely exchange it for other avocations.
As we entered one train-way,we couid
hear trie sounds of the miners’ blows
far in the bowels of the earth. Follow
ing the founds, we crawled through a
v*ry narrow pussuge fora long distance
and eiueiged into an opening where
the miners were at work upon a new
vein of ore, and preparing blasts. Wa
ter was trickling down the sides of the
p&bsiigi, the air was cold and damp,the
lights feebly flickered, the half dozen
-workmen hegrimtued and bronzed wiih
due, presented an Hiumtural appear
ance, and we were very glud to retrace
our steps and ascend to the surface of
the earth The large chain ben of the
mine from which the ore has already
been ta »en, ate divided by strong pil
lars of ore, which have been left to
support the over-hanging walls. The
veins extending eastward have been
pretty well worked down to the line of
tke Cleveland mine. There is belt red,
however, tu be an abundance of ore
extending westward under the surface
on which the buildings conneced with
the mines now satml. Ten thousand
tuns oi ore was taken out of the mine
during the first year it was opened
(1864). and the aggregate product up
to the present time has been nearly a
million of tons.—From American Ag
riculturist for March.
