Last Monday was pretty wild
clouds which lowered over the city
most of the day were very threatening
especially so about 4 o'clock in the
afternoon, when we got some rain,
hail and touch of the gale which pass
ed to the east and south of us. AT
Iron river on the \. L. Road the storm
was very severe and the hotel located
there was blown down, and at Cumb-
erland on the Omaha road the hail
done good deal of damage. At one
time there seemed to be three distinct
storms coming from differant direct
ions. contending for the supremacy
overhead. and things looked pretty du
bious to us frail mortals down on the
earth as we contemplated our insight
fcance in the presence of the terrible
magesty of the storm king.

Georgia Gold.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Feb. 1S.-Gold
was discovered in Gilmer county, Ga,
rs early as 1885, but on account of the
lack of capital and energy of the inhab
itantS, and their ignorance as to the
"huudanCc of precious metals in the
county, the development of the mineral
wealth of the State was delayed till this
late day. Gilmcr county is almost in its
infancy in the development of its pre-
ci"uS metals, yet it has been known ever
since the white man came into this cOun-
try that it had some very rich gold mines
Among the most noted gold is the
white Path mine, from which it
is estimated $500, 600 of gold has becu
taken from the placer alone. The Car.
tccay mine is known as one Of the richest
in the South Our oldest citizens csti-
mate that between 5000 900 and $500
600 have been taken from its placers.
In 1885 some practical miners opened up
the vein upon this property and exposed
about IL feet of the vein that assayed
f22, 600 per ton. Another ASSAY made
within the last year shows it worth

A LlFE RACE FOR A TROPHY.
Gen. Jackson's Cup Will Go to the
Last Survivor of the Old Pal
metto Guard.

Col. J. j. Martin is one of the twenty
survivors of the old Palmetto Regiment.
South Carolina, who are running life
race for historic trophy. Just after the
war Of 1912 the ladies of South Curoina
presented Gen. Jackson with beautiful
and costly cup indicative of their appre-
citation of the bravery and gallantry dis
played by him at the battle of New Or
leans. When General Jackson died his
will ordered the cup to be given to the
bravest soldier from South Carolina in
the next war which should occur. The
cup was carefully put away in the State
archives at Columbia to await the out
come of the next war.
The next war was the Mexican war.
South Carolina sent out the Palmetto
Regiment, I, 100 strong. II fought in
many battles, and only 300 of the LOO
came back. Then the question as to who
should have Jackson's cup arose. The
Legislature appoirtcd commission to
decide the matter The commission
could reach no conclusion. Every men,
ber of the regiment had fought well. No
one had run away or showed the slight
est cowardice, and it was impossible to
award the trophy. Thercupon thu Leg
islature decided that the cup should 20
to the last survivor of 800 There are
only 20 left, and it is the especial am
bition of each to outive the others so as
to possess the trophy.

HILL GETS HAMPTON'S SEAT.
Apparently He is Getting Ready to
Occupy It On March 5.

A special-.from Washington, d. G..
says: When David b. Hill of New York
takes his seat in the United States Sen
nte on March the next he will find him
self amid quite pleasant surroundings.
His desk will be situated.bctwecn that of
Senator Daniel of Virginia on the left
and that of Senator ColQuitt of Georgia
on the right. Senatorial desks are as
signed on the principle of first come
first served. Capt. Isaac Bassett, the
white haired old Assistant Sergeant at.
Arms, who has been an employee of the
Senate for nearly sixty years, keeps little
red book in which he makes note of the
requests OF Senators to get possession of
certain seats when vacated. Thus, as
soon as Senator is defeated for re-
lection colleague enters his
name in the red book, and the
vacated chair is assigned to him according
ly. Yesterday Capt Bassctt re-
ceivcd letter from Senetor- elect Hill
requesting as desirable a seat as pos
sible. The old gentleman thereupon
consulted his list of applications. He
found it possible to assign to Mr.. Hill
the desk now occupied by Senator Wade
Hampton of South Carolina, and so it
happens that New York Senator will
find himself on the 5th of March seated
between those handsome and whisker-
less statesmen, the Hon. John Warwick
Daniel and Alfred Holt Colquitt.
The chair has been occupied for twelve
years by the one-lcgged veteran, Wade
Hampton of South Carolina, who was
defeated by the Alliance candidate, Mr..
lrby. The desk TO which Senator Hill
has thus been assigned is the outer row
of the Democratic side, but is centrally
located and in direct line with the eve
of the President pro tempore. Immcdi-
ately in front of this desk is that occu-
pied by the leader of the Democrats,
Senator Arthur r. German of Maryland.
1t is regarded as very desirable location,
and Mr.. Hill, being new Senator, may
congratulate himself on having had the
torrsiohf- to SECURE il -,
