ENOUGH ORE
To Run a Furnace Using 200
Per Day 27 Years.

Capt. Il. Hornick, superintendent
of the ore mines at Wild Cat, near
Wards Mill, operated by the Vir-
ginia Iron, Coal and Coke Company,
spent Sunday at the Intermont, and
to a Posi- man stated that they were
meeting with good success in mining
the ore at that place. They have
now stripped and ready to raise
about $4,000 tons and will commence
shipping regularly in a short time.
Mr.. Hornick said he could in very
short time ship fully 200 tons per
day.
The company is building a large
commissary and will have same ready
for use in short time. About 125
men are employed at this place. The
Virginia Iron, Coal and Coke Com
pany purchased the tract on which
these ore mines are located from the
Interstate Coal and Iron Company
several months ago and at once pro-
ceeded to develope it. The boundary
about 400 acres, and Capt.
Hornick says it is estimated that
there are fully 100000 tons Of iron
ore on the property. This would run
a furnace consuming 200 tons per
day u years.

BIG STONE GAP.
A Short Sketch of What We
are Doing.

|
Big Stone Gap is one Of the best
known towns OF it's aye and Aze in
the south. Wherever YOU go people
ask about our mountnin city, and
everyone is glad to know that we are
improving. There never has been u
time when business was on better
basis than now. Every industry we
have is running on full time, and
there is no doubt there is several
hundred more people here now than
there were Is months ago.
The coal and ore mines near here
have never done letter than they are
doing now, and every operation finds
a ready sale for it's product and is in
a flourishing condition.
The furnace is now running almost
at full blast aud employs almost
hundred men at the plant. besides
several hundred at the ore mines in
Lee county. In a few days this
mammoth plant will be run at its
fullest capacity and will make over
hundred tons per day Of as good pig
iron as is made by any furnace in the
United States. This furnace is
operated by the Big Stone Gap lion
Company, which is composed Of
wealthy eastern capitalists, and is
one of the most progressive and up
to date companies in the country. 1t
is thought they will complete the
other furnace in the near future,
doubling the capacity of the
plant.
The tannery, run by the Virginia
Tanning and Extract Company, is
running at full capacity, and have
already commenced the shipment of
leather. This enterprise employs a
large number of men, and consumes
of cords of bark each year,
which also gives employment to
hundreds of men during the peeling
season. This enterprise adds greatly |
10 the business of the town.
The furniture factory and planning
Mills operated by the Moores is kept
,uisy filling orders for the different
and operations in this
section, and also gives employment
o a number of men.
The wooden mills operated by the
'owell's Valley Wooden Mill Com
,any is an enterprise that is meeting
With success. They only recently
rected new factory building and
mt in new machinery, which enables
hem to more than double the capac-
ty of the mills.
Every line of business has improv-
d and the merchants are all having
good trade.
We hope to see the town continue
o grow and prosper, and trust our
nterpri,ing people will use their ut
most endeavors to induce capital to
ONE here and establish other indus
ries. We have room for lots of them
nd we all invite them to come.
his is one of the best industrial
oints in the south, as nature has
fforded us many advantages no other
own in the country possess.

port his condition more favorable.
The postofiicc at this place will

The mail service from this office to

which would give us the mail direct
from the railroad on the same day.
