FIREMEN BACK HOME.
They We're splendidly Treated by the
Brunswickers.


Brunswickers.
The firemen who went to the relief
Of Brunswick last Sunday returned yester-
day morning on the early train on the Sa-
vannah, Florida and Western, and By 6
o'clock the No. 2 engine, which did twenty
eight hours of solid work at Brunswick, was
at her old quarters in the engine house at
West Broad and Olive streets, looking none
the worse for her errand of relief to a fire
stricken neighbor.
The returning firemen are loud in their
praises of the kindly treatment they received
by the Brunswickers, who not only show
cred hospitalities on them, but made up
purse for them which was firmly declined.
Mr.. 2. j. Connors, foreman of the No.
engine, very properly stating that he and
his men are in the employ of the city Of
Savannah and are paid by it, and that they
wanted no extra pay for helping a neighbor
in an hour of peril.
The firemen all reported for duty yester-
day after their arrival, although they were
somewhat fatigued after their labors at
Brunswick and the all-night ride home.

sions in the wood and setting in pieces

clam shells were inserted. which repre-.
sent the whites Of the eyes. Upon
these, small, circular pieces Of dark
kind of she'll have been stuck with .
cement made from fish bladders; these
dark pieces are for the pupils OF the
eye. The eye-lashes have been made
BY inserting locks Of hair beneath the
she'll eyes, and letting the ends pro-

ADVICE TO GIRLS.

4 Mistake Which, Though Small, May
Result Very UahsPpaly.
Do not get in the habit Of being
familiar in manner or speech with
young men. True, you may say moth
ing that is harmful; you may only say
what you think. and that may be per
fectly innocent And always to say Just
what one thinks is wisdom, but to jest
with Tom or Harry, innocent though
the subject may be, is not wise. Shall
there. then, be NO gayety in life? says >
dear girl Plenty OF it But mako It
pure, sweet fun, entirely clear and free
from the bitter waters Of Marah.
Don't you think that the one man
the one to whom you give your heart
will care more for one when he knows
that IN idle jest. . careless word. .
familiar manner have not been given
by you to every man friend you may
have? 1t doesn't seem much; but my
dear girl. because you are my dear girl.

You do not think 1t quite nice to look

MINERAL WEALTH.


Prot. Shaier on the Iron Deposits oe the
Southera 6tatea.
Tho iron ores OF tho South arc moi
only extremely abundant put occur in
several widely-separated folds. The
Shenandoah district of Virginia and the
neighborihg valley of tho Roanoke,
Western North Carolina, Eastern Ken
lucky and Tennessee. Northwestern
Georgia and Northern Alabama, all dis
tricts belonging to the system Of the
Appalachians. abound in workable dc.
posits of this mineral Texas. Arkan.
sas and Missouri also contain valuable
iron ores. but they lie remote from de-
posits Of good coal The peculiar ad-
vantage Of tho Appalachian district is
found in the fact that tho ores lie
in the neighborhood OF excellent coal
beds, which in certain cases car
be used as it comes from the mine, or
may be made to servo tho noeds OF the
smelter after it is converted into coke.
The average distance OF the iron ores
from tho coal needed to reduce it to
the metallic state does not probably ex.
ceed one hundred miles Tho ores OF
the Lake Superior district have to be
transported from seven to ten times
this distance to, find an appropriate
fuel It is true that the average rich.
ness Of tho Lakc Superior ores in mo.
talic iron is probably nearly one-third
greater than those found in tho South.
ern Sts.es, and tho former yield Bes.
semer i.on, which. save In rare in
stances. can not be produced
from the Southern deposits. On the
other hand the Southern ores
are generally won with con.
siderable ease. Enough orc to mako .
ton of iron can at many points be mined
and put in the furnace at cost Of b.
tween 81 and 81, while to bring the
samc amount of raw material from
the earth about Lake Superior to
the smelling point cost At tho pro-
sent time from 50 to Sl3. Moreover.
there is method of making steel
known as the Basic process, which. for
general purposes, is as good as tho Bes-
scmer system. This method Is we'll
proved, and. with the expiration Of cor
tain patents. which in few years will
cease to be valid, will doubtless como
into general use in the Southern StatcA
The peculiar ease with which the
Southern ores are mined is in good part
due to their geological conditions They
are generally in the form Of true beds
which once were limestones, and have
been converted by percolating waters
containing iron in dissolved form into
iron ores; being beds of this origin the
deposits ara moro continuous than
those of other nature, such as those
about Lake Superior, whero the ore oc-
ours in much moss irregular deposits
Moreover tho Southern country was
not occupied by the. glaciers Of
the last leo period; thus the
soft oxidizcd ores were not worn away,
IS has generally boon the case in tho
glaciated folds. nor have tho outcrops
been hidden by the deep accumulations
of drift materials which are SO common
in Northern districts. In part. also.
their advantageous conditions are duo
to the fact that tho Southern climate
permits work to be carried on in open
pits throughout tho year. whilo such
uncovered opening would not be worka-
