MONEY FOR SOLDIERS.

Governor Beckham and Adju-
tant General Murray have receiv-
ed the Autograph checks for the
payment of soldiers of the First,
Second and Third regiments. for
services before they were muster
ed into the army for service dur
ing the SPANISH American war.
The payrolls as made out at
Washington, showing the amount
due each soldier, are now in the
possession of the Adjutant- Gener-
al, and each soldier will be paid
the amount due, as made out on
the payroll at Washington. The
amounts vary from $25 to $45.
Representatives of soldiers who
have died and those who have
moved away will have to file their
authority to collect with the Ad.
jutant General at Frankfort, and
they will be paid after the soldiers
who have presented themselves
have been paid.
1t is Governor Beckham's desire
to pay this money before Christ
mas, and every effort will be made
to do so.

agon was sold last July for::$40,-

Quite an interesting history is
connected with the Empire mine
and its zinc wealth. The proper
ty belonged to Mrs McKinley's ia
Their and shortly after the war the
mine was operated for lead and
spar. AS they continually went
deeper into the earth they encoun
tered a brown rock which seemed
to ruin the spar, SO the operation
was finally abandoned. At that
time they did not know that the
brown rock which seemed 80 much
in their way was carbonate of zinc
and worth three times as much as
the product of the mines they
were then after,
A few months ago Cassius Nj.
Miller from Cleveland, Ohio, Wis
tied Pope county, looked over the
and as a result compa-
ry was formed to renew opera
tions. They have many tons of
spar and lead ore out, and are also
getting good share of zinc. The
necessary buildings have been
erected, new machinery installed,
and arrangements made for more !
