Rich Patch Mines.

Rich Patch Mines.
From Yost's Weekly.
We learn from c. NJ Shanahan, gen.
eral manager of the Rich Patch Iron
Company, that he is now putting in an
other washer, manufactured at the Gov
ington Machine Works, to accommodate
the orders he has on hand for hematite
ore he is now receiving. This will double
the washing capacity of the plant, and
enable him, with his present machinery,
to get out and prepare at least 500 tons
daily. Shipments are now being made
of from twelve to sixteen cars each day
when cars can be gotten, as Cd some
days there is scarcity of cars, but it is
hoped there will be provision made for
a regulars supply of transportation equal
to the demand upon the mines This ore
is now being taken by Low Moor, Iron
Gate and Glen Wilton. 1t is probable
other furnoces in that district will soon
go into operation and may furnish an
additional market.
Mr.. Shanahan is making other inns
provements at the washer looking to
enconomy in handling the ores and pre-
pairing them for market. He will also
during the summer have constructed
storage bins, ample enough to aecommo-
date 10000 tons of ore to meet the win
ter demand of the furnaces when mining
is improbable. His policy will be to
suspend mining about the 18th of De-
cember until the 1st of March or 18th of
February, during the severest part of
the winter, and meet the market from
the reserved ore in the bins. This will
effect great economy to the company
and at the same time give the furnaces
assurance of an ore supply during the
most unfavorable season. This mining
plant is now in excellent condition The
two large dams constructed during last
year, assure ample supply of water DUR
ing the dryest season and the constant
operation of the washers while the mines
are being worked.
While the brown hematite ore on this
pro perty, which is that which is now
being mined and shipped, improves in
quality where it is furthest from atmos>
pheric action, and the quantity is demon
strated to be practically inexhaustible,
attention is being directed to the fossil
veins, two of which are found in close
proximity to the mining camp. These
veins range from 81 to feet in thickness,
the ore is unusually free from Impurities,
and analyses from IS to 81 per cent. of
metallic iron. 1t is probable arrange
ments will be made to operate on these
veins, to furnish orders to mix with the
brown hematite, in general use. The
veins are persistant through the proper
ty and add greatly to it's value.

A Rassle With a Bear.

One Saturday, a few weeks ago, Mr.
Peter Dougherty, who is fireman at Mr..
Jas. H. Hoke's- saw-mill on laurel creek
in Irish Corner district, started for his
home on Second creek to spend Sunday
with his family. While on the way he
discovered racoon track and determin
ed to follow it, and, if possible, to bag
coon to take home with him. He had
not followed it long before he ran across
a young bears track. He then abonded
the coon track and took up the bears.
He followed it until it ran under ledge
of rocks where bruin was snugly en-
sconced. He was unarmed, but decided
patch him with club. He built
fire for that purpose, and retraced his
steps short distance to secure a club.
When he returned the bear had come
out. Mr.. Dougherty pitched into the
bear with his club and the bear pitched
into Mr.. Dougherty. The result was
drawn battle-if any advantage was
gained it was in favor of the bear. The
bear then started off in the direction of
Towards creek, Mr.. Dougherty followed
at a respectable and respectful distance
When the creek was reached the bear
plunged in and was making for the op-
posite bank, when Mr.. Dougherty cons
ceived the brilliant idea of jumping in
and drowning the bear. He proceeded to
carry the project into the execution. So
jumping in he seized the bear by the
body and neck, soused him under.
The bear was evidently imbued with the
idea that was a game that two could
play, for he reached his fore paw around
got Mr.. Dougherty by the back of the
neck and soused him under too. After
being submerged few moments they
mutually released their holds upon each
other and scrambled out upon opposite
banks. After casting look of defi-
ance at each other they separated to
meet no more. -Greenbrier I1adepend
