pany, in which several Salisburians are
interested, were held here last night and
this morning. Prof. w. E. Hidden, OF
Newark, New Jersey, the discoverer OF
the gem hiddenite, which is found in the
quarries of the company, was here. In
an interview with him he stated that he
expected to purchase that granite quarry
as he was sure that he would find some
gems in working it, 1t is not lat all i'm
probable that this may yet be discovered
to be a great gem mine.-Salisbury Sun.

phone wire between Siler City and Pitts
boro expect to finish it and reach here

High Point. N. c., Nov. 20.-Mr. George
Briggs and nephew, Mr.. r. E. Briggs, of
Adamsburg, Mass, are the promoters of
a new enterprise for High Point. They
have been here this week in consultation
with Mr.. J. Elwood Cox. and as a result
a company will be organized at once for
the manufacture of carriage wheels. 1t
is very probable that work will begin on
the building in few weeks, as the
plans have been drawn for sometime. 1t
will probably be located on the Kendell
property in southwest High Point. This
is altogether a new industry for this
place.
Another most probable enterprise for
this place is a hosiery mill A promi-
nent business man from one of the
western cities was here this week with
view to locating large mill here. He
does not want local capital for a COM
pany, but has ample means to establish
the business. He was much impressed
with the town. and if labor and fuel
comes up to expectation it is quite
likely the mill will be located at this
place.
