en- out simply by blasting, and of course
there is no need of sinking a shaft. A
single blast has gotten out as much
as 125 tons of ore. The only limit 90
the daily output would be the amount
of labor put on it. To still further IA
cilitate matters, the Southern Railway
will build a spur from the town to the
mine, n distance of only little more
than IA mile and half. Ii we consider
the daily product at only 100 tons, we
have an output of nearly $4,000 tons
per year. This is almost a minimum es-
innate. when we consider that the Gran
berry Mines in 1892 produced nearly
10000 tons according to Bulletin No.
/ of the North Carolina Geological Sur
Vey, and that under many difficulties
both of mining and situation. AS II
matter of fact, it seems that nearly
4 thousand tons a day could be mined
here with sufficient labor. The beau
ty of it is that the amount of ore in
toto is not so much greater than the
amount available.
If we take our 52,27O cubic feet pei
acre, and multiply by 800. the number of
acres containing ore, we get II ,499, 400
cubic feet OF ore. This amount, Of
course, would more than justify the
building of a blast furnace. 1t would
certainly pay better to have blast fur
mace on the place than to ship the ore
away for blasting. Lime and coke
could be transported at much less cost
than the ore itself. The establishment
of a big blast furnace like $his would be
fIaught with great benefits commercials
t. and industrially to the section.
In getting out the ore considers Nc
quantities of yellow ochre arr foIni
This is said by experts from Philadelphia
who have examined it to be of very fin2
quality. A great deal can he realized
on this at a very small expenditure.
1t is a question whether the ore is
a water deposit or of igneOus origin
Some evidences point to the fact that
it is the former, and others would seem
TO justify the latter. However, tic
fact remains that the ore is there II cnOr-
nous quantities, and what is still more
can be almost scooped up at comparative.
ly trihing expense. This is what marcS
the enterprise so promising from hnam-
cial standpoint, the ability to supply al
existing demand at so little cost.

Peg Leg" Williams in Trouble.

A special to the Atlanta Journal from
Madison, GA, says that w. A. vii
liams the immigration agent, known
throughout the South as Peg beg" Will
liams, was arrested in Covington Satur-
day night because he declined to pay
the special tax which was required of
him. AS soon as the arrest was known,
it is said that a mob quickly formed and
the farmers of the counties from which
Williams had been sending negroes to
the west organized for the pur-
pose of taking him from Jail.
The officers then took him to
Madison for safe keeping. 1t is said
that Williams will agree TO sign paper
providing that i'll future he will not soil
cit farm hands from the counties in that
part of the State, and it is believed that
if NE signs this paper there will be no
further trouble.

In nothing else as in the words we
habitually use in the common talk of
daily life do we show SO plainly our
degree of refinement, our culture or
the lack of it, and the plane on which
our thoughts move. 1t is therefore
worth our while, do you not see, to take
some pains with our conversation, not
in such way as to make us seem stiff
and pedantic, but to recognize the fact
that there, as in other departments of
life and learning, it is training that
tells in results.-Septemb Der Ladies
Home Journal.
Mohave County miner., 1900-09-01

Gossip may be friendly and neigh
borly. l like the word because it con.
veys suggestion of good news or good
comment, but it is no longer gossip
when IL ceases to deal with pleasant
happenings and loving wishes, and be-
comes critical or censorious or lapses
into slander. The most unworthy talk
in the world is that which is carried on
in whispers aud semi-confidences, and
which retails the unfortunate errors of
people whom we know. Never to say
an unkind thing, never to imply an
unfriendly thing even by our silence
are rules which we should make and to
which we should scrupulously adhere.

Late developments have shown that
men have not learned all there is min
ing. The way in Arizona in old times
was to erect mill and then hunt for
ore in the mine. but the handreds of
smokeless stacks scattered throughout
Arizona during the past fifteen years
have been called "tenderfoot's folly;"
yet within the past six months similar
experiences have been gone through.
A fine mill was built on certain claim
and when the company went huuting
for ore there was none to be found,
but the mill was there as an evidence
of the "mining experts" folly; and it
was ever thus.-Gazette.

Thursday evening three men dressed

Of the Helen Mining company, at
Graham, and got away with some
money, jewelry and sixshooters. They
started towards Alma, and on the road
held up three men. Deputy Sheriff
Foster, of Mogollon, was informed by
telephone of the holdup, and started
with posse after the robbers. He ran
into them near Alma, and fight
followed, in which one of the robbers
was shot in the jaw and captured. 1t
is thought the shot will prove fatal.
1t is supposed his name is Stewart.
The robbers went south from Alma, and
were followed by the posse. 1t is thought
they passed through or near Duncan

was here and went after them. 1t is

The Goldstrohm saloon on Water

oped the fact that the Chief of Police

the license could not be revoked under

Gil may, however, decline to grant a

OUR AGRICULTURAL IMPORTS.
An Interesting Exhibit, Covering Five
Years.

III
WASHINGTON, April Am inter-
esting statement showing the sources
of the agricultural imports of the
United States during the five fiscal
years 1s94-1S9S, has been prepared by
Frank H. Hitchcock, chief of the for
eign markets section of the Agriculture
al Department. Some Of the more i'm
portant statements it contains are as
follows:
During the five fiscal years 1884,
1898. the agricultural imports of the
United States had an eyerage value Of
1868, 74s. 457. Sugar, coffee, hides and
skins, wool, silk, vegetable hbers, fruits
and tea were the articles imported ex-
tensively. The value of these eight
items formed over four-ffths of our
total import trade in agricultural pro-
ducts for the period mentioned. their
combined value averaging about $780,
900, 900 a year. On this sun more than
one-half was paid for two commodities
sugar and coffee. The average yearly
value of the sugar imports for 1894
1898, amounted to $90,41S,6s5, and cof-
fee IS 3,57O.160.
