We last week mentioned the fact that
ore from the Florence mica mine owned

In returns of a good percentage of that
mineral. At the time We had no au-
thority for the statement, except a re
port from Il third party who was present
when the test was made. On last Sat.
urday, however, MIR. Harbach received
the following which not only explains
itself but establishes the fact that we
have tin ore in paying quantities within
~ minutes walk of the centre of flown:
CHAs. HARBAcH:
Dear Sir:-I have examined the rock
you sent me down BY b. j. Ti.he. Not
having my apparatus for exact Quanta-
tive assay | was unable to give II correct
assay. The rock contains about 10 TO Is
per ct. OF tin, also some iron. and | think
some nickel, however of ibis l cannot
speak with any certainty until / have
made some further tests which l will
do and let you know the result. 1 will
see you In Custer shortly.
YOURS truly,
j. +. Kendall.
The above is from a gentleman who is
authority on such matters, who has
made the tests on the Eta and can be
accepted as the truth.
In addition to the above Mr.. Jas. San
ders, who sent the same gentleman some
ore from a mine owned by him and Mr..
j. NJ. Lewis, received the following:
MIR. SANDERS.
Dear Sir: In reference to the samples
you sent. Two Of them j e the whitest
Of the two is s%podumene but contains a
very small quantity Of oxide Of tin en-
cased as il were by the spodumene. OF
the other two one contains no mineral
OF any commercial value, but the other.
however, contains a streak, greyish
brown in color which contains some tin,
also "a little iron magnesia / believe.
The rock appears Il kind of blend, com
posed of silica slate, and a topaz crystal

HOW Boys Marbles are Made.

Almost all the marbles" with which
boys every where amuse themselves in
season and out Of season, on pavements
and in shady spots, are made at Ober-
stein, Germany. There are large agate
quarries and mills in that neighbor-
bood, and the refuse is turned to good
account in providing the small stone
balls for experts to "knuckle" with.
The stone is broken into small cubes
by blows Of o light hammer. These
small blocks of stones are thrown by
the shovelful into the hopper of small
of mill, formed of bedstone, having
its surface grooved with concentric fur
rows; above this is the runner" which
is of some hard wood having level
face on it's lower surface. The upper
block is made to revolve rapidly, water
being delivered upon the grooves of the
bedstone where the marbles ore being
rounded. 1t takes about fifteen min
utes to finish bushel of good marbles
ready for the boys knuckles. One
mill will turn out l60,0 marbles per
week. The very hardest crackers,
as the boys call them, are made by a
slower process, somewhat analogous to
the other, however.

only 16 years old and only three weeks
a wife, were found insensible in bed,

taken on the gallows-tree, amid the
tears and groans of a sympathetic peo-

james Vick's plan of catching
slugs is as follows: "Take some pieces
of slate, or fiat stones, or fiat pieces of
tin, and lay them about In the garden
among the plants. distributing them
very literally; just at sundown go out
and place teaepoonful of bran on each
piece of slate or tin, and the slugs will
soon become aware of it, and begin to
feed on it. In about twojhours, when
it is dark, go out again with lantern
and pail containing salt and water,
and pick each piece on which the
slugs are found feeding, and throw
slugs and bran into the brine. where
they instantly die 1t is we'll, also, to
go around in the morning; and many
slugs will be found hiding under the
pieces of slate and can be destroyed in
the brine. By following up this
method persistently for few weeks
the garden may be effectually rid of
the nuisance.
