Mining Intelligence.

The Catoctin mill was started up 1nst Thursday, and the mahinery xorked very satisfactorily.
 Only one half interest in the Par xell mine was embraced in the sale 1ecently made to Weber X Shirley. ID. c. Thorne and Col. H. A. Owens left this afternoon for the 1anta Maria district. to do assess ment work on the Waters group of nining claims, which are under bond to E. Burgess.
 Col. V. K. Spear, of the Gro Bella, kas twelve men at work on thls oroperty. He encountered good body of ore recently in the tunnel, Ind present indications of the mine Ire excellent.
 The sale of the Parnell mine, by F. and Paul Dillon to Weber and Shirlev, for S12.0O0, Is announced. The purchasers state that they will Immediately erect a fve-stamp mill on the property. The mine Is loca- led near the famous Hillside, and has produced some very high grade ore.
 z NJ. J. Hickey returned yesterday 7yom trip through the Big Bug mining district. He visited 1he Blackberry mine, where he says he saw as fine a body of ore as he Ever saw in his life. The Big Bug onyx property also looks we'll. At he Silver Belt mine he found Su- eerintendent c. NJ. Clark rejoicing oyer the discovery of body of very $ Nigh grade ore. He says the min fnS outlook in the entire district Is tery promising.

Fervent Lightning.

Quite strange freak of lightning wa:
witnessed at the home of Mr.. William
Henry Morton in Athens. During the
rainstorm that came up about noon 6
flash Of lightning struck the rod over the
house, melting it instantly. The cur
rent was not content with this, but leaped
to the tin gutter and melted it all around
the house, pouring the molten metal in
heavy streams to the ground below. The
lightning then flashed through one corn
er of the house, paid visit to the people
in the room below, ran out along an iron
pipe to tin basin on the back piazza and
melted it completely, and followed an
iron pipe to the well, fully fifty feet from
the house. The damage to the wood
work of the house was very slight, bu,
all of the metal with which it came in
contact was melted.-Atlanta Constitu.

IT has been a common remark oil
Democratic free trade papers in de-
announcing the Mckinley bill that if
we do not buy of Europe we cannot
sell to her. Dun q Co.'S last week
ly review of trade says the imports
at New York have sharply declined
since July /, amounting to about
S4,300,000 or Is per cent. less than
for the same weeks last year. On
the other hand exports of domestic
products at this point show an in
crease thus far in this month of SO,
$4,000, or nearly 80 per cent. in
comparison with the same weeks
last year. Thus is another Dem
ocratic argument knocked silly.

Shot the Horses to End the Runaway.
Deputy Marshal Tom Smith has re-
turned from the territory and tells of a
thrilling experience of his few nights
ago. He and Deputy Marshal Booker
were driving across the prairie between
midnight and day. In crossing ditch
Booker, who was driving, pitched head
first over the dashboard ON the ground.
The horses became frightened and ran.
Smith was in the buggy helpless, as the
lines had fallen outside. He had nc
knowledge of the country and did not
know what moment he would go over a
precipice or into barbed wire. He was
afraid to jump lest he should break his
neck or limb. So he leveled his Win
chester and began firing at the horses,
and three or four shots brought them
down. The horses cost Smith $50 apiece,
but he got the man he started after

THE Pittsburg Dispatch announc-
ed the other day that p. III Laufman
& Co., Of Apollo, Pa, would at once
begin to turn out tin plates at their
new plant. The sheet mill has been
running for some time and the work
of dipping would now commence.
The firm expects 10 turn out 400
boxes day of l4x20 plates, the pro-
duct being confined for the present
to terne or roofing plates. A large
number of men will be employed at
better wages than have ever been
paid in Wales American wages in
fact-and yet the plates will be
placed on the market at cheaper
rates than the importer product.
Mr.. Laufman denies that he is en-
ploying foreign labor, and he says:
81 have a system that excels anything
that has ever been tried. 1t is my
own plan, and ] doubt very much if
the Welsh workman could operate it
any better than my own men that [
have taught. However, if any of
them were to come | might try them,
as / have already do1e, although
without success Here is another
opportunity for the tin plate liars to
get IN their work.

England. the model of the democ

England, the model of the democ
racy, possesses an immense merchant
marine, which, beside doing an enor.
nous carrying trade, is available in
case of war. It's growth has been
fostered by judicious system of
subsidy that enables those lines en-
gaging in an Improbable route to
keep on until they can be made to
pay by the freight. The English
shipper has vessels Of his own flag
to carry his goods to all countries
while the govermn ent, in case OF
need, has fast transpo TT or cruiser
at her service. The same con dition
obtains with regard to France and
even Holland. The course so wisely
pursued by these countries demo-
crazy declares would be fatal to ours
and insists that no subsidy shall BE-
paid. 1t is possible that even the
democrats may be able to learn, and
that they will see in short time the
benefits of substituting.

Says He Has Found . New Metal.
George A. Clarke, an experienced iron
worker of Boston, claims to have dis
covered an ore in the Rocky mountains
which he believes is new to the world
He says Of it:
81 took specimens Of the ore to as
sayers in Cincinnati, Chicago and Boston
and no one of them could tell me the
name Of the mineral. Then / began
here q series of experiments myself, mix
ing it with molten iron. 1t combined
perfectly with the iron, and l found
that only a small quantity was necessary
to increase the fluidity of the metal. 1t
rendered the iron ductile, and in low
grades acted as purifier. The product
of the alloy was homogeneous metal
Of very fine pores, capable of higher
finish than before. The Stag expelled
by its use contained no metal, and was
very light. In the treatment of iron
with only one per cent. of this new ore
the formers tensile strength was in
creased from 10 to % per cent.
Using only half of one per cent, of
this or in mixture with copper, found
that it gave the metal greater density
and great increase-from 60 to 100 per
cent.-of tensile 9Th. The result
ing metal, too, is capable of high polish.
In word, l found that the ore increased
the tensile strength and the fuidity
under heat of boti these metals and
makes them both of finer grain. 1t is
non-corrosive."
Mr.. Clarke produced a handful Of the
ore-a substance that looked like fine
sandstone, save that it was black, and
many pieces of it presented highly pol
ished surfaces as smooth as bit of glass.
Mr.. Clarke refused to state the location
of the field, which, he said, was exposed
over the space of an acre, as he is trying
to get control of it first.-Cor. Chicago

Opponents of the present tariff are
scoring the Mckinley bill because OF

pig tin to the st. Louis Tin Plate
