A Large Industry,

Joshua Staples, well known by his long con-
nection as chief engineer of the Vandalia line.
finds himself in possession of a vast property by
the discovery on his Putnam county lands of
what seems to be conceded the most valuable of
the many choice quarries of stone yet discovered
in Indiana, a quality of stone that will add to
the already enviable reputation Of the State in
that direction.
The product of the Staples quarry is known as
the 'Putnamville stone' from its near lacation
to the town of that name in Putnam county.
Mr.. Staples has constructed a railroad into his
quarries branching off from the T. H. & L, west
of Greencastle. The quarry is so far developed
and so well equipped with steam apparatus as to
handle from fifteen to twenty carloads of stone dali
ly. This stone has been submitted to Prof. Collett,
State Geologist, for inspection, and also to
severe tests by General Gilmore, of the United
States Engineers, and pronounced capable of
bearing the burden of the heaviest structure.
1t is from its composition-silicious limestone
not only frost-proof but nearly fre-proof. Elk
perts declare it the best foundation and paving
stone in the world, and for ''stepstones" I'M
rivaled. Prof. Collett says: 81 have watched
and studied its character exposed to heavy wear
under the most adverse condition, and have no
h~esitancy i'll saying that it wears better than
iron or granite" The State at large is to be
congratulated upon the opening of such an in
dustry, and builders and contractors are fortu-
nate in that the quarry is in hands that will
place it upon the market with dispatch, and at
prices within easy reach of consumers. A val
liable quality Of this stone is that it comes from
the quarry in varying thickness, with the top
and bottom of each strata ready dressed by ma
ture, and hence not only it's superiority but
natural economy in use. Mr.. Staples can be
reached by mail either at Putnamyille or this
citV Evening News.
