BIT OF SHELL
That Struck the Indiana's Punch Bowl
Has Been Silver Mounted.

Among the many interesting objects on
board the battleship Indiana at the navy
yard none is so highly priced or more
Jealousy guarded as a large silver punch
bowl which was struck by piece of shell
during the battle of Santiago The punch
bolll is the largest piece of a magnifi-
cent set of solid silver given to the bat
tleship by the citizens of the Hoosier
state. Captain Taylor, who has recently
Ecen promoted to Admiral was then in
charge of the Indiana and promised that
the silver set should never leave the ves-
sci.
On the midnight of July 4, 1898, when
the American battleships We're in the
thick of the thrilling engagement off
Santiago, an eight-inch shell from
Spanish shore battery struck the fore
deck of the Indiana near the starboard
side. The projectile plowed through the
heavy steel fish plate just below the
huge thirteen-inch guns and exploded
Gle strOying two StateroOms and wrecking
tn eiron bulkhead by the captains quar-
tiers. A fragment of the SHE'LL it's force
nearly spent, struck the punch bowl
scuarely in the embossed seal of the state
OF Indiana, making a large dent. No one
was hurt, as all the men were engaged in
duty above.
The shell fragment was mounted by a
New York jeweler in a silver bracket,
the four legs of which rest on the rim of
the bowl. The silver set is kept in a
glass case in the captains quarters and
is always under lock and key. Only one
Spanish shell struck the Indiana with
effect, and the indented punch bowl
serves as a constant reminder Of the
combat in which the batlesh'p played SO
brave and glorious a part.

ANOTHER TICKET
THREE PARTIES WILL CONTEST
FOR CITY SUPREMACY.
FUSlONlSTS WILL NOT DOWN.
Capt. buttons Temperance Lectures
New Smelter Seal for Daily
County.

There is now little doubt left that
there will be third tickle. in the field
for the approaching city election. The
branch of the democratic party which
affiliated with the fusionists last fall will
put up the third man and within the
next day or SO the county central COM
mittee will be called together to appoint
city committee and begin at once to
arrange for the holding of a convention
to place in nomination a candidate for
mayor and other city officers.
Col. r. OLeary, who was one of the
leaders in the fusion movement last fall
declared this morning tnat the inde-
pendent democrats are wrOngfuiiy as
Stunning the name democratic party of
Anaconda" in fact are trying to be the
whole thing, while in reality they have
no right to be very much of anything
according to the cOloneFs reasoning, any
more than independent democrats. The
colonel contends that the b.anch of the
democracy with which he is affiliated is
the regularly organized democracy of
DAILY county and that the other organi-
cation is nothing. more than a mongrel.
The colonel says the city convention will
be called to meet sometime prior to the
25th inst; that 1t will be the regular
democratic convention and that the con-
ventiOn called TO meet on Monday, the
25th inst. by those who associated
themselves with the Independent demo-
cratic party last fall cannot be a genu-
inc gathering of the unterrified.
When asked to name a probable candi-
date for mayor Colonel OLeary only
replied that man would be put up
who would make fight for election.
Some others who are opposed to the
men now in charge of the city govern
ment are urging the name of William
Kelliher, the well known groceryman,
to accept the nomination for that hon
ored position. Some want Senator j.
NJ. Kennedy to try his luck in running
for mayor, but the senator positively
says he will not run, that he is out of
politics so far as being a candidate is
concerned that he is satisfied to step
aside after so much honor being heaped
upon him and give some other good
democrat a chance.
Mr. Kelliher is believed to be the
strongest among the available Candi-
dates of this wing of the democrats SO
in all probability he will be chosen to
head the third party ticket. if he will
accept and it is said that he would not
refuse if his friends insisted on his
nomination.

SOUTH RICH IN GOLD.

The recent Development of the gold
mining fields of Georgia by large mining
corporations such as Tillotson & Co.. Of
New York, has aroused great interest in
the possibilities underlying the scientific
manipulate ton of the entire Appala chan
gold fields.
The Indians who ranged the entire
country before the advent of the white
man first discovered gold, since found by
careful geological investigation, in num-
erous aurferous deposits in more or
less continuous belt extending from Maine
to Alabama.
1t is, however, only the southern part
OF this belt traversing Virginia, the Caro-
li,as, Georgia and Alabama, which is
most important. Northern Georgia, as
shown by the official report of the geo.
logical survey of w. S. Yeates, state geol-
ogist of Georgia. by assistant geologist.
s. w. Calle made in 1896, is the richest
portion of the southern belt.

States government established local

output, which amounted in actual coin
age during that period to Sc, 1859. The
toal product of gold to the present time
has amounted to SIG, 22S, 73O. the main part
from placer mining in this section.
The working of these mines by the
most scientific methods for extraction Of
gold by mechanical processes, is what
has given the present great impetus to
Georgia gold mining. The richness of the

economic importance.

AUTOMOBILES
AT EXPOSITION
Owners of the HOrseless
ILL., Carriage Will Find
Much to Interest
Them.

Among the most important and in.
teIcsting features Of the TranspOrta-
ton exhibits at the Pan American
Exposition viii be the automobiles.
These ConyeyanceS have come into eX.
iStenCc within very few years, the
large pneumatic tires and the con
struction Of motors Of high power and
comparatively light weight having
made them possible. There are al
ready millions Of dollars invested in
their manufacture, and this will be
the first great exhibition of motor
carriages on the Wertern Continent.
1t is expected that all sorts of tests
Of their efficiency will be made, and
the visitor interested in these ve-
hicIes will find the opportunity TO-
gather a large amount Of useful in
formation concerning them. The de.
velopement Of the trolley car has
taken place largely since the Chicago
Exposition and these exhibits will he
of special interest to many. The ex-
hibt of fine railway cars and trains,
steam and electric locomotives will be
up.to date and full Of interest.
The horseess carriage has not yet
developed the horseless age, and the
manufacturers of fine carriages and
carts of every style will put forward
their best endeavors to have the ex-
hibitS ouLrival all former efforts in
this line. With these displays will
be the latest products in the line Of
fine harness and saddlery goods. Bi-
cycles will also have their fair share
of attention.

POLICY MAY
BE CHANGED

Washington, April G.-There are
indications of an almost complete re
versal of policy on the part Of Presi-
dent Mckinley regarding the occupa-
tion of Cuba by the United States
pending the organization of stable
government. 1t is not improbable
that almost the entire military force
of the United States in Cuba vii! be
withdrawn.
While members Of the Cabinet ard
distinguished Senators like Mr.
Proctor. of Vermont, are declarin"
that the strong arm Of the military
must remain until the Cubans accept
the terms of the Platt amendment,
the President is seeking advice as to
whether it would not be well to with
draw the five thousand American
soldiers now beirg maintained at
great expense on the island.
This matter is being considered by
boil. the President and Secretary
Root. General Leonard Wood, Gov
crnor of cuba, is likely to resist such
step. The President for two
years has been told that one Of the
greatest causes of friction between
the Cnbaus and Americans was the
military government which had been
established. General Wood, while a
splendid success from a military
standpoint, has not at all times. it is
said, been as diplomatic in his deal
ings with the CubanS as they required
and he has not always grasped the
true situation.
1t is believed that the departure of
the troops wonld cause the Cubans to
feel that they are not held in check
by artillery and Krag-JorgcnSon rifles
The President has been tod that it
would have 4 good effect upon the
entire political situation in Cuba and
result in satisfactory relations being
established.
