think that the sharp rivalry

The Times yesterday received from
Mr.. w. B. Slosson u few specimens of
the iron ore found in immense quantities
at New Birmingham and Rusk, Tex.
From Mr.. Slosson We learn that in that
county alone there is over 40 900 acres
nf iron ore land that runs from 40 to so
per cent. OF pure iron and at the furnace
now in operation by the state, one and a
half miles from New Birmingham, iron
water pipes are now made daily. direct
from the furnace. This is the only place
in the United States, and the only place
but one in the world where water pipes
can be made without resmelting, which
is a saving Of 81 to Sc per ton.
In addition to the state furnace now in
operation, two fifty ton-a- day furnaces
ars being built-one TO be in operation
the 10Th OF this mouth. and one by April
goth next, when the output OF pig iron
and water pipes for shipment from New

big revolvers, were escorted to a Penn

terday by the police and forwarded to
their homes. They were convinced that
they were in luck. They went TO Newark

hours on Friday, and were finally
picked up and taken to police
headquarters by police sergeant, when
the little game was explained to them.
They expressed their thanks and said
that they wanted permission to go home
with the big rolls of money which each
had. They admitted that they intended
to flood lower Mississippi with cheap, but
excellent money. There Is no law in
New Jersey to prohibit the carrying of
concealed weapons, or both men would
have been fined severely.

like him, and would not have him

and told to be sure TO keep out OF rifle

man and the coercion OF the parents
made life n burden for the girl, and the
lovers decided to be wed by foul means,
since fair ones
WOULD NOT AVAIL.
The girl gave reluctant consent to marry
Royson, und all the preparations for

A TEST CASE.
Oklahoma City Sal DON Keepers Test the Le-

Business-Ihe Verdict.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
OKLAHOMA, o. t.. Nov. 29.-Uuder
the Instructions of Judge Clarke the
United States jury to-day returned YER
dict against the saloon keepers of Okla
homa City.
When the city organized one of the
first acts of the council was the passage
of an ordinance licensing saloons at the
rate of $500 per anuum. Previous to this
time the saloons had openly violated the
United States laws by paying Sl00 fine
into the county treasury-that is, they
paid the costs, which went into the
pockets of the council, Judge, sheriff and
deputies, while the county whistled for
the fines, and it is still whis,ling
A few of :he saloon men took out
license under the city ordinance
and received guarantee from the city
OF immunity from further interference
from the county. The majority of the
saloon keepers, though, refused to take
out license on the plea that the city had
no legal right TO grant liquor license.
and in defense of their position pointed
to section OF the organization wherein
it is expressly stated that no license to
sell liquor shall be granted until gen.
ernl law regulating the sale thereof shall
have passed the legislature. Thereupon
the saloon keepers we're indicted by the
Quilted States grand jury, including
those who had taken out license. Among
the latter. was the proprietor of the bar
attached to the Grand Avenue hotel, and
his case was agreed upon as test one.
As above stated, the jury re-
turned verdict of guilty uu-
der the judges instructions where
upon all the saloon keepers
came forward and entered q plea of
guilty. Sentence was deferred In order
to allow an opportunity for an appeal,
which will be taken.
The saloon keepers who took out
license are now in q quandary as tQs
whether the money they paid into the
city treasury will be returned TO them.
The general opinion is that it will not.

Good roads are ss IMPORTANT rs anything

considerable section Of country without
good roads Leading to that country. No
county ever did or ever will have good
roads from conscript labor alone. 1t is
not right to do this II it was expedient.
