NEWS OF THE MINERAL WORlQ3

of a careful study of the situation
by men interested in spar mining,
and a disposition on their part to
develop the field as rapidly as pos
sible, consistent with sound bust
ness methods. Spar mining and
the use of spar in the arts and in
dustries is comparatively anew
thing. The demand for the pro-
duct of our mines has been gradu-
ually growing, as its utility be-
came known and its usefuln ess as
a factor in the great iron and steel
industries claimed and held atten.
ton. This demand has called for
the output thus far, but the miner
heretofore has not felt safe in ma
king as large investments as he
otherwise might, had he been able
to make patrons of more of the
large iron and steel industries.
These industries have held aloof,
not because they doubted the val
ne Of the spar, but because they
could not be assured OF a continu-
Gus supply. They wanted annual
contracts. Heretofore the reliable
producer, with his limited facili-
ties, could not afford 10 make these
contracts. The union OF all the
mines under one strong, reliable
management, removes this diff
Guilty. The Kentucky Fluor Spar
Company, as now organized, has
the spar producing mines, has the
capital and will shortly have the
facilities that will enable il 10
meet all demands, and there will
be no hesitancy in making con-
tracts, because nothing will stand
in the way Of filling them.
The old companies have dealt
satisfactorily with the people Of
this section. They have made mo-
ney for the stockholders, and have
added materially - the business
of the county. Greater things
may be expected Of the new CON-
pany, and the PRESS halls the adj
vent of the new organization as
the harbinger Of the new era.

The Meeting.

Large congregations are attend
ing the services conducted at tn
Methodist church. Rev. Lowry
is an eloquent speaker. His SER
mons are able, impressive, and fore
eful. There have been several con-
versions. Services are held in the
morning and evening.
The Sturgis Herald had the fol-
lowing to say in regard to the Sc
ries OF meetings conducted in Stur
gis by Rev Lowery:
1.-THE most succe ssful protract-
ell meeting in the history of Stur-
gis, which has been in progress
for the past sixteen days at the NJ
Il. church, conducted by the Rev.
Lowery of Little Rock, Ark, clos
ed Thursday night with 106 CON
versions as the result of his work.
and strange to say just half the
number, or 80, united with that
church; the other 50 will join the
Baptist, Christian and Cumber-
land Presbyterian churches. Not
outstanding the inclemency of
the weather this week, with sleet
falling most all the time, render
ing travelling almost impossible,
great crowds rushed to the church
at each service, and there appear.
ed to be as much interest on the
last night ms at any time during
the meeting.

ZINC OXIDE PLANT
One the Futures Possibilities For
Marion.

THE PRESS has never been dis
posed TO keep company with old
Drag, nor Blow, nor Buster. To
tell the plain, unvarnished story OF
the people and things of its baliwick
is its custom. The words that lead
this article look pretty large, but
they were suggested by a gentle
man noted for his conservatism and
thoroughly converSant with the sit
uation. They are significant not
because they are printed. but be-
cause the facts justify them. "Old
Jim," the zinc mine four miles
west Of town. is rapidly pushing his
way to the front and is making a
record that is attracting the mining
world. The shipment OF zinc ore
from that mines has been unprece-
IDENTIFY large the past sixty days.
When the figures are placed side by
side with the great Joplin mines,
"Old Jim" may blush with pride.
II the increase continues from that
mine alone, it need not aStonish us
to entertain the idea that II would
be reasonable proposition TO re-
duce the ore here rather than ship
it six or eight hundred miles for that
purpose. This mine is yielding an
immense quantity and il increases;
the quality was good at the first, Il
is better now.
Will il tranSpire that "Old jim
is the Alpha and Omega of carbon
ate zinc in this Section' Hardly.
Read the formation, can the rocks
sight along the distinctly outlined
veins, and you dare not give neg
alive answer TO this question.
Everything indicates other reds,
and as the Seach is now on, others
are TO be uncovered.
MesSrs. Blue & Mum. who own
this famous mine, have devoted
practically all Of their time for the
past two years to the study Of the
geology Of this section, to prospect
ing and TO mining take an optomis-
tic view Of the industry an ulti- |

nor minerologists, and our opinions

but we think there are other depoS-
its Of this ore in paying quantities,
and we sincerely hope they viii be
found. The finding Of others will
be Of value 10 us. A few Of these
mines will necessitate a zinc oxide
plant at Marion, this will add value
10 our ore. We VIII cheerfully give
my information that will assist in

ANaLo-sAxoN UNION.
Chamberlain to American Colonial
 Newspaper Men,


 At luncheon party given by Gilbert ParkeTar NJ. F.. at the House of Com mons recently to representatives of the American and Colonial PFees. the Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain. the Colonial Secretary. made an impromptu speech in a pleasant vein.
 While by far the larger number of tournalists present represented British dominions beyond the sea. Mir. Chamber lain first paid his respects to New York correspondent. who. he said belonged to a land as yet unfncluded in those dominions. but which, if present tendencies devel- oped, might yet unite to herself all the Britains in one huge cooperative union.
 Mfr. Chamberlain said that all memories of old animosity and all old doubts and suspicious between Great Britain and America were nearly obliterated. No American visiting England could fail to note that every Englishman was his friend alike by necessity and choice. While he did not pretend that the feeling in regard to Great Britain was quite so general in the United States, yet every Englishman visiting America brought home pleasant memories of cordial hos pitality and sympathy.
 In referring to the Colonies. Mir. Cham beriain spoke of England's larger and growing comDrehension that the great war now, as he firmly believed, dra wing to a close. had helped to knit the British Empire more strongly together.
 The Colonial Secretary gravely remind ed his hearers that in this country Cabi- net Ministers are never interviewed, and said he felt sure that those present would never attempt to infringe that honored tradition. Other lands, other manners said Mr. Chamberlain, and he we'll re- membered being interviewed at a New York hotel by forty reporters at the same time.
 One of those reporters concluded the Secretary, wrote that if he (Mr. Cham beriain) had beer better dressed he might have been taken for an American He hoped that, in spite of any pecuiiari- ties in his attire. he might always be taken, in feeling and sympathy. for an American, an Australian. Canadian, a South Afytcan-an short. an Apglo-saxou.
