The first captain license ever granted
In Pennsylvania to a woman was recently
received by Mrs. Clara G. Locke of Lin
wood, Delaware county, and that handsome
young lady Is now armed with a commits
sion to command the steam yacht Clara,
which is owned by her husband, says the
Philadelphia Record.
There was a Gutter of excitement in the
office of the United States Inspector of
steam vessels when Mrs. Locke made her
appearance and calmly informed Capt
Thompson that she wanted d license, and
was ready TO undergo the necessary ex-
animation.
The captain gaIlantly told her that there
was no law TO prohibit her being examined
and holding license to command vessel,
and directed her to DR.. Purviance of the
United States hospital sery Ice. When the
ply sician produced his apparatus Of test
ing color blindness he discovered that the
nautical aspirant before him oould distjn-
guish even more delicate differences in
shades of color than he himself and found
that he was playing the role of the hunter
who was hunted by the tiger. In 4 little
while Mrs. Locke bad the qualifying
certificate in he- pocket.
Then Capt. Thompson began the short
er catechism of navigation intelligence,
which embraces the knowledge as TO when
to blow whistle, sound bells, strike gongs,
show lights to avoid collisions, take sound
ings, and scores Of other questions. All Of
them were answered by the lady with such
amazing readiness and accuracy that the
astonisnsd interrogation was overcome by
the great intelligence displayed by the ap-
plicant, and declared that he had never
examined man who answered his ques-
tions so correctly. II was not long before

Strange Coincidence of the Same Grounds
Being Used for Burial at Three Different
Periods.
ST. Louis Republic.

The strange phenomenon of one spot
having served as the burial place for peo-
pie Of three races in three distinct ages Of
the worlds history Is met with on a bluff
Of the Iowa River, some forty miles from
its mouth. This thrice sacred bluff is
known as Graveyard Point. 1t Is stu
ated in the northwestern corner OF Wash
ington county, Iowa, and Is the southern
terminus of line of bluffs extending for
several miles along the west hank of the
Iowa, the SUBMITS of which are covered
with thousands of curious forms Of earth
works. mounds, etc. relics of a race Of
which the Indians have no distinct knowl-
edge After serving for ages as a ceme-
terry for the mound-builders, the Indians
took possession OF Graveyard Point,
also using II as q burial place. Back In the
forties, when white men drove the Indians
out, they, too. began burying their dead
on the bluff. the same land thus serving
as Gods Acre for three different and
distinct races N three stages of the world;

Large Mining Operations.

The Augusta Mining and Investment
Company, of which Col. C. A. Avery of
New York, is president, is now actively at
work preparing manganese for shipment
at their Vesuvius mines. They are wash
ing about IL tons a day, and expect as
soon as the weather is favorable to have
machinery and forces properly adjusted
to mine and ship about 40 or so tons
day. The very unfavorable weather for
the past four months, has very much
INSTRUCTED their operations. They had
expected before this time to be markets
ing the maximum number of tons of this
valuable mineral above named, but they
could do but little during the past few
months. The Vesuvius promises to be
a valuable manganese mine. Those who
are acquainted with the developments
think SO, at least Even if no more than
twelve tons are washed daily. it will be
profitable-at least $50 clear profit daily.
If it can be increased to fifty tons it will
be $3.50 clear each day.
This company are also now shipping
ores from several of their iron mines in
Georgia The Wood mine at Cedartown
and the Reed mine in the same locality
are being actively worked. They own
12 or 10 iron properties in that portion
of the South, and expect to have all OF
them effectively developed during the
summer. They have contracts signed
for 100000 tons of ore with Southern
4
large force and business activity to meet
the contracts.
The Augusta Mining and Investment
Company is q strong organization. It's
president, Col Avery, is a gentleman of
excellent business capacities, tireless en-
ergy, and has associated with him such
successful business men as Mr. Epson, OF
Cleveland, Ohio; Mr.. Paulson, OF Min
nesota, Mr.. Maitland, of Michigan, Mr..
Fitch, of Alabama; all wealthy and ex-
perienced business men, and Messrs.
Moore & Hilbert of this place, who are
mineral experts and mine operators,
who are we'll and fayorably known all
through the Northwest where they were
pioneers in the development of the Go
gebic iron region.
The company has a large amount OF
money invested in mineral properties in
the South. The members OF it believe
it is the most inviting field in the Union
for mining operations and give evidence
of their faith by the excessive properties
they now control.
1t is to the assistance and co operation
of such men that the South must look
for her growth and prosperity. They
know a good thing when they see it,and
have the courage to back their judg-
ment with their means and energy. The
Southern mineral field is without known
bounds, and especially in Virginia is
there mineral wealth that defies compu-
tation or measurement. Vast sums of
money are looking this way for invest
ment in such properties, and when it
