Senator Bates Historical Custom.

Senator Bate, OF Tennessee, has a
custom that i, both picturesque and
historical. He is never to be seen
without having what he calls his dry
smoke, that IS cigar sticking out ofone
corner Of his mouth No one since ne
has been in Congress has ever seen him
light one In fact, he has not lighted
a cigar since the year 1863. Up to
that time he was an inveterate smoker
and always had lighted cigar between
his teeth. He was in the Confederate
army during the war and i'll that year
was serving in the campaign Of Nir-
oinia. In one of the battles OF that
campaign he and his brother werc
riding together Bate took out II
couple of cigars, handed one to his
brother. Then tried to light a match
on his saddle. As he did son cannon
ball whizzed by putting out the match
that the future Senator Bate had lighted
and at the same time taking of the
head of his brother. Bate carried the
dead body from the field and after
some of the excitement had passed
away he found the unlighted cigar still
in his mouth. He did not light it, and
from that day to this he has never
lighted cigar. The shock was 50
great that he never fully recovered
from it and the unlighted cigar is the
one sad reminder and yet only tobacco
solace has he indulged in since that
time. Atlanta Constitution.

MANY FEET OF IRON ORE.

Remarkable Discovery Made in Sinking
Well a Few Miles from Mashfie1d.
MARsHFIELD, rs, Nov. 2O.-The dis
covery Of iron on the lands of the Arpin
Lumber Company, at Arpin is causing
considera bic excitement, and from pres
ent indications the find may develop
into a frst-class iron mine Of hema-
tite ore. Arpin is located eleven
miles southeast Of this place on
the Port Edward, Centralia & Northern
Railroad, in this county. John Web
Der, of this city, who is doing the Dor
ing, said last night that three wells had
been sunk. The first well, which was
sunk for water, is only 139 feet deep,
but as iron was struck the company
decided to do little prospecting
and the second well was sunk to the
depth Of III feet, the drill passing
through d vein of iron 81 feet III thick
ness. The third we'll is down 135 feet
and shows vein of iron 105 feet thick.
One more well will be sunk in another
locality of their land and if it results as
hattering as the others a company will
be formed to work them. Several par
ties from Chicago and Milwaukee
have visited the place and pronounce
the ore taken out of the first quality.
1t has been known for some time that
iron exists in this county. Two years
ago a company was formed in this city
for the purpose of prospecting. Sever
al prospect holes were sunk on the
lands seven miles east of here and on
line with the find at Arpin. The did
