Our National Mineral Resources.

Edward w. Byron, A. NJ.
has just given us a very good
outline of the past century's
progress in the United States
in the Scientific American.
The following is what he said
of the mineral resources and
development:
"In 1900 there had been
practically no development of
the mineral resources of the
country. The abundant for
ests supplied the necessary
fuel. and for most of the peo-
pie, took the place of coal.
There were no railroads, bat
tleships, nor sky-scraper build
ings with their enormous de-
mands for iron and steel; coal
oil and natural gas were un-
discovered assets, and the
great electrical art with its de-
mand for copper was not yet
born. To-day the annual out
put of the United States for its
principal mineral products is,
as given by the Geological
Survey for the year 1899, 49,
ozo,7o3 long tons of pig iron
valued at $245,I72,654; 585,-
342,I24 pounds of copper val
ue, $Io4,Ioo,S9S; 54,764,5oo
ounces of silver valued at $780,
500, ,o26; 3,437,2Io ounces of
gold valued at $7I,o53,4oo;
Io3,32I,9S7 short tons of BIZ
luminous coal valued at $I67,-
935,3o4; 53,944,647 long tons
of anthracite coal valued at
$8S,142,13o; and $2o,o24,873
worth of natural gas; and ST.
o7o,S5o barrels of petroleum
valued at S64, ,6o3,9o4. The
total production of petroleum
in the United States during the
past forty years, from 1889,
when it was discovered, to the
end of 1899, is 943,5I3,6oo
barrels. This amount of oil
would fill a tank having a base
of one square mile to a height
of IS0 feet, or it would form a
river IS miles long, a quarter
of mile wide, and fifty feet
deep. Let the mind try for a
moment to estimate the num-
Der of lamps which have been
filled, trimmed, and kept
burning from this supply.
The total value of the mineral
products of the United States,
as estimated by the Geological
Survey for the year 1899, is
500, ,ooS, ,o46.'

when we were startled by the awful
bowling of wolves near where the
sheep were resting | never heard
so many before i'll my life There fol-
lowed a cOmmOtion among the
sheep at once and we heard the
sheep bell start down the hill and
the bunch came in wild rush to-
ward us, bleating, and frantic with
fear They were right on us
quicker than we could count twenty,
and before we recovered from our
dismay sheep and wolves ran over
US. 1t seemed that thousand de-
mons were turned loose on that
wild spot as the fleeing sheep and
pursuing pack of wolves were pass
ing over us. We all screamed with
fright and sheltered our bodies the
best we could with bed quilts 1t
was done so quick we could hardly
realize what did happen. After the
sheep and wolves had passed be-
yond our hearing Lucy leaped to her
feet and ran to the wagon to get
the dinner horn to call back the
sheep. But as she got out of the
wagon she missed her footing and
fell to the ground; without taking
time to get up she blew the horn
vigorously for the return of the
sheep. My fright soon melted into
fun and Louisa Foster and | laugh
ed until our sides were sore. 1t was
so amusing to see my excited sister
lying on the ground, blowing the
horn. But her fine flock of sheep did
not heed her call. Just before she
arose one of her children, who was
scared nearly to death, uncovered
her head, and said, MA is de
woofs all gomez
Puss, the colorcd woman, was so
terribly frightened that after the
trouble had gone we could not per-
suade her to leave bed long enough
to put wood on the fire. After
ward wolves began bowling again,
and they made terrible noise until
daylight and Louisa and | sat up all
night and kept big fire of rails
burning. 1t seemed, at times, as
though the wolves would attack
our camp before day, for they ap-
preached very close After sunrise
we gathered up all the live sheep we
could find. There were only three
live ones-the wolves had slain the
others My poor sister was greatly
troubled at the loss of the sheep. but
like hundreds of others in Il like con-
dition, she was compelled to bear it.
''As we journeyed on that day our
prayers were that the terrible war
might end soon and enable the men
that were lett TO be at peace with
one another again, for the women
and children were suffering for the
want of food and clothes. We had
already suffered beyond endurance.
We toiled on until we stopped on the
river, on the old Willis Yandell farm
in Taney county, where we lived
several months"

Fireside Stories Of Early Days $
In the 0zarks.
Terrified by Wolves.

A lew wolf stories which have
been gathered from the pioneers are
funny as well as serious The follow
ing story was given by one of our
lady contributors, Mrs. Dosha Viii
son, whose father, Henry Bradley,
settled on Beaver creek, in Tanev
county, Mo, in an early day. Mrs.
Wilson is sister of John Mitchell's
wife. who lived two miles below
Forsyth. Mitchell was killed in De-
cember, 1864.
Mrs, Wilson furnishes the writer A
story about a bunch OF wolves at
tacking a flock of sheep one night
during the civil war, while she and
| another women were in camp on the
road In giving the account Mrs.
Wilson says,
Sister Lucy married John Gimlin,
who with his father, Sam Gimlin,
came TO Taney county in 1S41
John was a well-to-do man but
when the war broke out he told Lu-
cy that he loyed the South and that
he was going to fight for it. After
telling his wife to do the best she
could, without delay ne enlisted in
the Confederate army and served un-
til the close of the war.
''For a year or more Lucy manag-
ed to keep the stock together, but as
the war progressed. it began to van
Ish fast In an effort to save the re-
malnder Lucy deemed it prudent to
move down to Marion county, ,Arkan-
sas, where she lived several months
on Clear creek. In the fall of 1864
the horror and distractions of war
were wOr- e in Marion county than
in fancy county BY this time l
learned that nv sister wanted to
come back to fancy county and 1
went down to Clear creek to aid
her return All the property she had
left up to that time was a flock of
sheep, two yoke of oxen, two milch
COWS and one OK wagon. We load
ed the household goods into the
wagon. Then Lucy yOked the oxen
and hitched them to the wagon and
drove them equal to her husband.
Louisa Foster, a mulatto woman
named Puss Coker, and | walked be-
hind the wagon and drove the sheep
and COWS
1T was trying time then on
women and children as well as men.
No man knew when he would meet
an enemy and get shot down. We
women did not know what moment
we would meet a company ofsOidierS
to take everything away from us.
Oh. those bitter days of sorrow and
trouble. How sad it makes me feel
when | reflect back to those dark
times We were compelled to travel
slow, making frequent stops to al
low the cattle and sheep to Craze.
In two or three days we crossed
Bear creek and went on over to Bee
creek; it was near night when we
reached the latter stream and we
stopped to camp.
There was an uncultivated field
on the right of the road, a steep hill
on the left and long hill Just in
front. When we stopped we let the
sheep go up on the hillside and lay
down. Lucy drove the wagon out
of the road and unyoked the oxen
and we turned them and the cows
into field. Wood was not handy
and we built fire of fence rails in
the road and cooked and ate our
supper. Soon after dark we made
our bed down near the fire, for the
country appeared so wild and desc
late that we were afraid to sleep
away from the fire. Puss, the negro
woman, had been sleeping at our
feet and we prepared her a place as
usual We had not vet gone to bed
