Prof. Brdnner'S Report.

Prof John c. Branner's report on
the zinc and lead region of North
Arkansas has just been issued
The volume contains 36S pages,
hlled with the most important in
formation bearing upon the subject
under consideration, all thoroughly
reliable and authentic, with an atlas
of seven maps bound separately.
There are 80 illustrations and SO in
serted plates. There are eight
chapters as follows: The Phvsiog-
raphy of North Arkansas: The Zinc
Ores, Their Character, Origin and
distribution: Notes on the Faults of
North Arkansas; List of the
Minerals Found in the Zinc and
Lead Region of North Arkansas:
The PaleOzoic Faunas of Northern
Arkansas, bv Henry Shaler Williams
by permission of the U. S. Geological
Survey: photography of the Geology
of North Arkansas
The chapter on zinc ores is one of
the most important. 1t shows that
the order of their Importance are
sphalerite (zinc sulphide). populary
called Jack ''rosin Jack" etc.;
smithsonite Zinc .carbonate), and
calamine Zinc silicate In addition
to these, there are several minerals
and zinc that are more or less
abundant, which do not occur in
sufficient quantities to entitle them to
be 10 Oked uoon as ores-at least not
at present. Analysis of the various
ores are given showing the follow
ing maximum metallic proportions
of the various ores: Sphalerite, Co.
| 46 per cent; smithsonite, .64 3 T;
turkey fat, 63.S4; brannerite, 63.S7
alamine, 54.16.
Prof Branner says: 'Smithsonite
is formed by the alteration oi
sphaieri;e. The early zinc mines ot
Lawrence and Sharp counties, Ark
ansaS, were mines of smithsOnite
and the ore WAS found on the surface
and insoils alon, and near the out
crops of deposits of zinc blend AL
though there is hardly a zinc
prospect in North Arkansas that
has not yielded some smithsonite
there is but little search nowadays
for smithsoni8e alone. feel reason
ably confident, however, that wher
the search for our zinc opes has beer
property systematized. large bodie:
of zinc carbonate will be discovered
These are most likely to be in region:

The Small POX in Harrison.

! Four cases of small pox have de-
NelOped in Harrison this week, but OF
the mild form which seems to be pre-
vailing elsewhere Both the County
Judge and the town council took the
matter in hand at once and as strict
quarantine has been observed, it is
thought there Is little danger of the
malady spreading. Beal Coffman,
the first one to take it, is up and
about his house, having suffered but

reported as having little more pain
or sickness than would have been in
lcident to a bad cold; and Messrs.
PiersOn and McCord, under quaran-

All of our physicians are on the
alert concerning the disease, and the
fact that no new cases have been re-
ported during the past three davs

From two points on the west side
OF this ridge as it looks toward the

miles farther, describing very nicely

Eureka Springs to Harrison has been
practically accomplished. Clear day.
light shown through the 700 foot
tunnel after the first shot on Mon
day morning last. and now it is Onlv
a matter of short time until the
opening is available through which
operations may be conducted from
that end of the road which connects
with the outside world. and from
which the rails are to be furnished
and heavy track-laying machinery
operated.
Much OF the material for the great
steel bridge at Kings river has al
ready been hauled from Eureka, and
it is intended that that structure
shall be sufficiently advanced as to
cause no delay whatever when the
track-layers reach it.
With the exception of few short
breaks where work still continues,
the entire line is graded within two
miles of Harrison, and three large
forces are engaged within our town
limits on the cut and fill which
brings the road squarely out into
Crooked Creek valley.
Those well informed as to the pro-
gress of the work and possibilities
for the future are confident that
trains will be running into Harrison
not later than April 1st next.

Many millions of tons Of sul- phide ore, which the modern method of treatment makes valuable, are in sight, and the ancient workings are likely to again become the center Of busy camp.

Sev- eral beautiful specimens from the Gold Leaf, owner by himself, Sheriff Loyin and Peasley, adorn the cabinet of the Kemper brothers on Front street, Mir. Harris intends to sink 50 feet on each of three claims in the vicinity of the Gold Leaf all of which show good values on the surface. In fact MT. Harris informs us that there is mere gold in his section than any where he has been in the river range.
