are the heaviest deposits of the purest
kaolin for the manufacture OF the
purest porcelains, as also the primest
of fire clays.
A couple of years ago PROFESSOR
JOHN g. SMocK furnished to the Unit
cd States Government his report made
to the director of the geological sur
vey corps list of the ores, minerals,
metals, ETC., in Texas, as far as he
could obtain information by personal
inspection Of the localities and core
spondence about them. He reported
then that In Burnett, Llano and San |
Saba Counties, exhaustless tons OF SUI |
perb granite were to be found, while |
the best of limestone was to be had in
Travis, Lamar and Grayson Counties,
and in this list he has omitted the
superior magnetism varieties that
abound in Baylor, Throckmorton and
other northwestern counties, and but
recently clearly defined to DO of the
sort that knows no discoloration. Iron,
no announced, was moro prominently
in Eastern Texas, but other points con-
tanned marvellous supply. The
brown hematite, or limonite, he saw
in large beds in Robertson County,
five miles cast of Calvert. In Milan
County it appeared abundant, while in
Cherokee, eight miles south of Rusk,
the ore was inexhaustible as both
brown and red hemstite. This is like
wise true Of Jefferson, Cass, etc. In
Burnett and Llsno, occurring in the
granite rocks, there are strong develop
meuts. Indeed, IL would seem that
wherever the older tertiary deposits
prevail the iron ID to be found, and
this embraces the larger portion of
| Texas.
As for coal, it was discovered sll
through the carboniferous formation,
extending from Llano County north
ward to Red River, in Wichita County.
Our coal region may moro properly
be divided into, say, three districts,
viz the Red River, tho Rio Grande
and the Pecos. The first embraces the
counties OF Montague, Clay, Wise,
Jack, Young, Shackeliord, Palo Pinto,
Parker, Erath, Eastland, Brown, Com
ancho, Coleman, Runnels, Mccullough,
San Saba, LlauO, Mason and Tom
Green. To the north of this district,
and bordering it almost everywhere,

which the carboniierous sinks. The
quality of all this coal covering an
area of over $4,000 square miles, is
bituminous, and similar to the Mac
Alllster coal in the Indian Territory,
and 30 much used in Dallas.
As for Ignite, we haYe it OK
tonding across tho entire State
from northeast TO southwest, and at
some points the beds arc twenty feet
thick. ON Padre Island is found q
world of asphaltum, finer and bettor in
every way than tho far-famed article
from Lake Trinidad.
And thus it is we know not what We
have and are ignorant of our woallh,
until chance occasionally discovers
some unsupported mineral Pennsyl-
vania would suffer by comparison with
Texas il we but knew and could
automatically and officially proclaim
our grand mineral possessions. But
the great State of Texas is without a
geological survey TO do this. By all
meana lot us, at tho earliest moment
have a geological survey Of Texas.

SO furnaces with 3S4 pots in operation; al

PAULINE AND THE KING.
A Devout Missionary Who Was willing to
Make Sacrifice.

The sincere missionary will do anything
make almost any sacrifice in promotion OF
the sacred cause he espouses. Some time
ago, the Rev Mr.. Crutchler, an American
divine of much gentleness and love, went to
the island of Krinksloo. He soon learned
the simple language Of the people and was
delighted at tie attentions which the king
bestowed upon him. One day the good mis-
sionsry said TO his wife:
Nancy, we cannot do too much for the
king, for the more we do for him the better
our cause will prosper. As you know, am
greatly desirous of making q good record
over here. In view of this, have been
thinking of something, which, if accomplish,
cd, will place us beyond the possibility OF
failure"
What is it, dearH' his wife asked.
