HER LOVER Is AN INDIAN.
The Romance Among the Cherokees
In Western North Carolina.


For some time one of the teachers in
the Indian training school at Yellow
Hill, Cherokee County, N. c., has been
Miss Mamie E. Dickson, of jamestown,
N. Y. Soon after going to the school
Miss Dickson became acquainted with
Richard II. Smith and here the romance
begins. Smith is q son of Chief Nimrod
Smith of the Cherokee tribe, about 81
years old and in appearance very prepos-
sing young Indian. Miss jackson is
nearly of Smiths age and is daugh-
ter of Baptist clergyman in James
town. Despite the barriers that were be-
tween these young people a mutua
attachment sprang up and within two

ing Mr.. Smith and Miss Dickson were
engaged to be married.
Not long ago Professor Andrew
Spencer, government superintendent of
the Indian school and also Indian agent,
decided to dispense with Miss Dickson's
services in the school, 60 informed her
and notified the department, this step
being taken, it is understood, because
Miss Dickson was not thought suitable
to work among Indians.
The suspension of Miss Dickson, OF
course did not please her Lochinvar, and
he began to investigate and take hand
in the matter, working with all his might,
in true love-like fashion. A number OF
friends of the engaged couple also took
an interest in the case, the first Of the
kind, perhaps ever known on the reser-
walton, and the affair was reported to the
Great Father at Washington. The
government at once sent a special agent
to look into the facts of Miss Dickson's
suspension aud report to tho department.
This agent, Mr. Cooper, spent sometime
investigating as to facts and then went
back to Washington, where he will make
a report.

Wonderful Mineral Deposits in South
Carolina.
And What Is Being Done to Develop
This Great Natural Wealth.

A correspondent at Greenville, S. c.,
presents an admirable summary of the
mineral resources of South Carolina. We
reproduce it herewith:
While this State leads all the other
Southern States in the number of spindlcs
now operating, and has, besides, more
cotton factories in course of erection than
any of the Others, che is also ahead of oil
other Southern States in her mineral rc.
sources, except, perhaps, Alabama and
Tennessee.
1st. The. South Carolina phosphates
have Dcen mined mud mon nufaatured- ever
since 1867. Up to 1890 there has been
mined of land and river rock, as by last
census report, 5,177,74t long tons.
Upon the river rock the State gets n
royalty of 81. per ton, and up to 1890
received $2, 1885, $50. In the same time
TAI GAS tons have been converted into
over 3.000,0 900 tons of supcrphosphatcs
or into ammonictc fertilizers, the rcmain-
der having been shipped to foreign and
"ohSSbiC Poitc. hC Iotut VI ioSN
mined to date of report is $33, 900, 600,
while the deposits remaining yet to mine
has been estimated by experts at from
5000, 900 to over 8, 600, 900, 600 tons.
Cd. Kaolin has been extensively mined
for over twenty years past, and shipped
to both domestic and foreign ports. No
data is at hand to give an estimate of the
volume of this trade. The kaolin belt
on the upper tertiary formation extends
entirely across the State from the Savan-
nah river at Augusta, Ga, to Cheraw on
the Pe,dee. Richland county alone has
worlds supply for years to come.
Valuable ochrcs also arc to be found with
these deposits of knolin. One company
now in upper Richland manufactures
fire brick. Kaoln may also be utilized
for the production of aluminium.
3. The piarl beds of the tertiary forma.
tion have been utilized. They are OF
great extent (4OO to 600 feet thick), and
will likely in process of time be utilized
for agricultural purposes.
4. The. limestone of the Piedmon,
