FLoRIDA's MINERAL WEALTH.
A Geological Expert Describes Nat
ural Cement Beds.

ural Cement Beds.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Oct. 31.-For
many years it has been claimed by scien-
fists who have Travelled and prospected in
Florida that this State is rich in mineral
deposits; but lack of capital, insufficiency
of transportation facilities, and scanty pop
ulation have all contributed to prevent the
proper development of resources.
The phosphate mining industry in this
State has for several years attracted gen.
eral attention, and is now being conducted
on businesslike basis. and proving a
source of great revenue to the people en-
gagged in it. Florida ships about zoo. 900
tons of phosphate rock annually, which
brings from $40 to $14 ton. II is only
within the present year that the deposits
Of hydraulic cement rock found in middle
Florida have been recognized by scientists
and large manufacturers as being excel
lent for industrial purposes.
Last spring the United States Geological
Survey was induced to send an expert to
the largest beds of these deposits, near
River Junction.
To make this examination the survey
sent Uriah Cummings, OF Akron, n. Y,
who is the leading expert in this country
on natural cements. Mr.. Cummings has
recently submitted his report. which has
just been published in a bulletin by the
department Oh the
Probably the most remarkable natural
hydraulic cement rock deposit in the
known world says this report, occurs
near River Junction, Fla. From this point
the deposit extends for several miles along
the left bank of the Apalachicola River
southerly to Aspalaga. On a recent visit
to this locality the writer made a careful
examination of this truly remarkable for
nation. 1t comprises something over 1000
acres, and has thickness of so feet above
the river. How far it may be below has
not been ascertained. Enough is exposed,
however, to warrant the assertion that the
deposit contains sufficient raw material
to produce over 1900. .000, 900 barrels of &C.
ment. The material is usually soft enough
to be cut out with a spade, but the Jumps,
when placed in kilns. harden sufficiently
to prevent them from crumbling while un-
dergoing calcination.
Several analyses from samples taken
from various parts Of the formation show
a remarkable uniformity of proportions of
the ingredients essential to the production
of a first-class hydraulic cement.
But the distinguishing feature of this
deposit consists in its perfect purity of
color. The raw material is white, and the
manufactured product is as white as the
whitest marble. In this respect 1t is an
ideal cement for the architect as it will
not stain the walls of fine masonry Bricks
made of one part of this cement and two
parts of white sand are in use in many
parts Of the South, and they are extremely
hard and beautiful. So far as is known to
the writer, this is the only deposit of
white hydraulic cement material an the
world"

CATTLE SENT TO GUAM.
The Navy Department to Experiment
in RuisinE Herds.


High-grade cattle have been introduced
into the island of Guam, and the Navy De-
partment, which has undertaken the ex-
pertinent of raising herd there, does not
want any interference from the Agricul-
tural Department, the branch of the execu-
tive Government charged with such mat
ters.
A report has reached the department
that three COWS, a bull, and a calf, all
Jerseys, the first four of which had been
sent from the United States on the collier
Brutus, had been safely landed in the
American possession in the Ladrones.
The calf wasn't with the others when
they were shipped at San Francisco. 1t
was born at Honolulu on the voyage across
the Pacific, and went ashore at Guam in
good condition.
The report came from Commander Cott-
e1an. of the Brutus. Guam has no milk
cows, but the climate is considered suit
able for raising them, and the naval agri
culturists say that they have reason to be-
lieve that the experiment will succeed.
The COWS are expected to furnish fresh
milk for Governor Leary and the marine
officers OF the Guam garrison.

Low WATER IN CONNECTICUT.
Many Towns Affected by n Prolonged
Drought.

Ahecteu by n prolonged
Drought.
HARTFORD, Conn, Oct 31-Prolonged
drought is seriously affecting business
throughout Connecticut, as well as causing
distress in families. Hartforfs reservoir
supply is so low that a. large part of the
city has to be supplied from the Connecti-
cut River by pumps. An epidemic of ty-
phoid fever is expected. Meriden has less
than months supply of water Water
bury's regular supply is practically ex-
hausted, and the city has to fall back upon
an undesirable reserve called the Branch
Stream" In towns where factories de-
pend largely on water power 1t has been
necessary to reduce working hours By from
one-quarter to one-half, though the con-
Germs never were SO crowded with orders
Paper manufacturers are unable to meet
half the demands upon them
In Winsted, Mad River is SO low that the
factories have to use steam. Pennington
River. supplying power for scores of fac
tories, threatens to dry up. Torrington has
not more than five days supply Of water in
its reservoir. In Cromwell, Southington,
and other central Connecticut towns SINH
lar conditions prevail, and in many places
work is becoming impossible without run
ming factories at too great an expense for
competition.
Railroads also are suffering from a scar
city OF water for locomotives, especially
in the Naugatuck Valley.

SCORED A HUGE SUCCESS
JULES WALTERS COMPANY ALL
PROMISED FOR 1T.
Pleased an Immense Orpheum Audi
ing Features of the Play.

The Jules Walters Company scored
an immense success at the Orpheum on
Saturday night. There were all of
1900 people present. About 200 had to
stand and a number could not get in
to the building at all. Every seat in
the house was occupied and the two
boxes were filled.
The play presented was the comedy
drama How Hopper was Sidetracked,
with Walters and Miss Louise Level
lyn as the principals. Though light
in some respects the piece has strong
features. There are several climaXes
that draw and thrill, and the comic
features are genuine.
Mr.. Walters was the heavy man in
the play. The work of James Fulton,
Charles Mcclure, Frank Hartwell,
John Connors and all of the ladies was
strong and pleasing.
The first scene is laid on the Yukon
| in the Klondike, where Hopper is first
met with. The next is in New Eng
land, down by the sounding sea-" and
| the third the home of Isaac Murch. The
| last scene is in the Heating mansion.
This leads up to the strong concluding
climax.
There was some good singing and
| specialtes between the acts At the
end of the second act Jules Walters
and Miss Llewellyn introduced a very
laughable comedy with singing, and
Miss Jefferson gave a novel speciality
after the third act.
The same program will be put on to-
night and tomorrow night. Wednes-
day night there will be a change. The
next play will be the four act war
drama Through the Lines. In future
the curtain will rise at Sis
Smoking and whistling in the Orphe-
UNI have been tabooed by the man
agement. 1t has also been requested
| that ladies remove their hats in the
| house These are new rules.
Thomas j. King explains that the
advance in admission prices at the Or
! pheum has been made necessary be-
cause this is a superior and an eXpen-
sive company. 1t cost $4,000 to land
| the combination in Honolulu. Salaries
| foot up 5000 a week. 1t is estimated
! that the season of four weeks will cost
the local management $1,000 which is
a big and risky undertaking. Mr.. King
! feels, however that the public will ap-
preciate the great Improvement in the
class of entertainments given.
