A musty flavor is often noticed iu tea

GOLD MINING IN GEORGIA.
President Adams Issues a Statement
to Stockholders.


CHATTANOOGA, Jan. 8-A statement
has just been issued to the stockholders
of the Dahlonega Consolidated Gold
Mining company, operating extensively
in the territory surrounding Dahlonega,
Ca, by President J. w. Adams, from
the headquarters in this city. A list of
about $100,00 in real estate and per-
sonal property donated to the corpora
tlon is given, consisting largely of min
eral lands in that section. In regard to
the operations of the new 100 stamp mill,
President Adams says:
"Ihe mill was started May /, and
shows capacity for handling 500 tons
of ore per day.
investigations by mill tests of ores
have proved conclusively that the ores
coming from the solid formation under
the ground yield precious metal with
out difficulty, and as depth is attained,
the ore bodies increase in value and
quantity, and that for every ton of sur
face ore we have thousands of tons of
far better ore than that which can be
obtained by deep mining"
Appended to the statement are the re-
suits of mill tests of ores from various
VoluS. 1feSld6nG ADAMS says:
''It is manifestly clear that the mines
will soon be yielding large returns, thus
bringing about the dividend paying
time. -
The report shows about 800 tons of
concentrates have been treated in the
chlorination plant, to the entire salts
faction of the company. Regular ship
ments of gold ore are made from the
mill to the mint, some of it passing
through this CITY.

Worth of Diamonds.
ATLANTA, Jan. 8.-While the family
was in the parlor playing cards, bzr-
glar broke into the residence of John
w. Green, % Ourrier street, last night
about 10 o'clock and carried OF lot of
diamonds worth over $1,000.
A window had been forced open and
the dresser rif1ed of the stones while
every member of the household was up
entertaining friends.
The jewels were not missed until the
company had departed, and the family
prepared to retire for the night.
- There was the open drawer of the
dresser and the broken window and the
empty jewel cases told the rest of the
story.
The police were notified of the rob-
berry by telephone, and Captain Ball
sent hurried call for Sergeant Bedford
and Detective John Harris.
The detectives went to the residence
of Mr.. Green at once, and was working
on the case all night trying to secure
some clue by which to get on the track
of the burglar.

BRITISH SUFFER SEVERELY.
Beers Infiict Heavy Losses on a Small
Force.


LONDON, Jan. 8.-The fresh affair at
Lind1ey, where the British have already
had many mishaps, is vaguely described
by Lord Kitchener. The force referred
to as the ''body guard" IS not Knox's
own guard, but distinct organization,
either a corps recruited by Lord Roberts
for personal protection during the
march from Modder river to Pretoria or
some other South African contingent.
Military men do not understand that
General Knox himself was with the
force which was attacked by a Boer
commando of superior strength, but ex-
plain that several British columns are
cooperating in the pursuit of DeWet,
and that one of them has been sharply
engaged with the Beers and lost 40 Off
GERS and men killed or wounded.
The fact that the wounded had been
taken into Heilbron indicated that
Knox's mounted force has followed De
Wet from the Orange and Caledon riv-
ers, in the southwestern ca@ler to the
northern edge of the colony toward the
Vaal. He has not been diverted from
his pursuit by the raids of marauders
south of the Orange river, but has trav-
efSeu tne country, keeping on the T1gnG
side of the railway. He has rowing
commission evidently and has been no.
titled to follow DeWet as long as his
horses are fit for the work.
The new Lindley affair probably will
turn out a Boer success, either on the
part of De Wet or the forces which have
crossed the Vaal, broken through the
railway Gordon at Rhenoster and reach
ed Lindley. 1t is a fresh indication
that the fighting is rot over, although
Lord Kitchener and the burghers have
been handing about the pipe of peace

May be In Session six Months.

AUSTIN, Jan. 8.-The legislature met
at noon today and every indication is
that the session will not be far short Of
six months in duration Outside of
some 80 or 60 platform and administra-
ton measures presenting themselves for
consideration, there are about 40 meas
ures asked for by labor organizations
and equally that number are expected
from corporate interests. The lobby this
year will be the most powerful ever en-
gagged and every one predicts long and
bitter wrangle. The biggest fight will
be over the calling of a constitutional
convention.
