A drift is term generally in
elusive of all horizontal mine
openings. In a more restricted
but common use il is a horizontal
mine opening of dimensions con-
venient for working out tho rock
and for use for transportation or
travel after completion. Where it
has it's start at station it is term
ed level; if at about right an
giles to the trend of the ore body
it is called cross-cut; If outside
the parallel to the trend it is some
times called a gallery. Working
horizontally in the ore body wider
than track and passage way, as
in drift placer mine, the entire
opening would be called a drift;
the face of rock, ore or gravel be-
ing mined would be breast, and
the track and manway opening
through the drift would be gang
way.

that had been made by plows and
scrapers. The ore, an extremely
heavy, brown rock, was being rails
ed from both ends of this canal or
cut and piled by itself. In the
bottom, or floor, immense boulders
of the same kind of rock, with
their heads sticking through the
earth foot or more, were in evil
dence throughout the long open
ing. These boulders would, |
should think. weigh anywhere
from 400 to 1900 pounds each, and
| was told that the dirt or sand in
and around these great masses was
nearly as valuable in zinc as the
boulders themselves.
II know very little about mining
but if that heavy brown rock
brings anywhere from tiiteenl to
twenty dollars per ton, as reliable
gentlemen tell me it does, l should
say that this property in itself
would pay exceedingly strong d.
videuds on a large capitalization,
if the company did not own or
mine another foot, aud that they
can not possibly mine out the
present ore showing i n fl fty

The citizens of Carrsville ought
to celebrate surely if the story
telegraphed from Greensboro to
the Courier Journal is true, about
the finding of body of 80 per
cent zinc.
But the trouble with that sort Of
a peach story is that SO per cent.
zinc isn't obtainable exoep t
through smelter. The class of
Zinc found in this district, and as
a rule it's the very best nature puts
up anywhere, could not exceed 81
per cent. zinc and 33 per cent. sui
phur, and it very rarely reaches
that per oentage here or anywhere
else. Still we are glad that the
celebration is still on.

OUR NEW
RAILROAD !
Confirmation of Its Construction as Originally
Told In The Press--A Dry Goods Merchant
Visits a Zinc Mlne-Rich Strike
at The Lucille Mine.
A METEOR WEIGHING FIFTY TONS.

The Courier Journal says, in a
worry lengthy article on the new
railroad:
Plans are taking definite shape
whereby the Illinois Central will
accomplish the ambition OF de.
cade. The desire for a direct route
over its own rails to the Atlantic
seaboard has been we'll known by
railroad men for years. A deal is
almost closed whereby the Ton
nessee Central will soon pass into
it's control, and that closed, the II.
linois Central will build a line
from Eldorado to Marion, KY
thus establishing direct lines from
Chicago and st. Louis to Nash
Vile, and paving the way for a
Unconstitutional trunk line be-
fore the expiration OF a years
time.
Within the past week it has been
stated with assurance that the ILL
nois Central has secured control
of the Tennessee Central although
the officials of both roads refuse
to confirm the report. The Ten
nessee Central also has plans on
foot which can be best brought to
successful termination .as sn in-
dependent line, among which are
the expansion of its terminal CON
oessions in the CITY OF Nashville
as contemplated in bill that was
introduced at the last meeting OF
Nashville's City Council, and the
collection of the subscription OF
100000, which Nashville voted
toward the construction OF the
road.

The tirmness of the spelter mar
ket in the face of the recent de-
cline in other metals is one of the
most encouraging features of the
Summers development in the zinc
industry. 1t is true that the I'M
fortunate conditions which pre-
vailed through the flooded Missis-
sippi Valley lent some strength
to the situation, but it cannot be
denied that the demand for spell
ter this summer has been greater
than ever before in it's history.
The unfortunate reduction in out
put in the Joplin district has had
much to do with maintaining pri-
ces on the present satisfactory ba-
sis and there is no apparent reas-
on to look for any marked reduc-
ton IN either ore OF spelter prices
during the remainder of the year.
There may come lull during the
fall, but in the event that the con-
sumption holds firmly to the pre-
sent basis-as is now indicated by
the demand for August deliveries,
the weakness will be only tempo
rary.

The Miller carbonate of zlnc

by the leading dry goods merch-

his opinion without regard to any
thing except volume of material
and values. The gentleman, who
is widely known throughout the
State tells a PRESS representa-
tive:
II had heard 30 much of the
great values of the zinc ores

ores. l found great open canal

Confirmation Of the Illinois Cen
trails ambition in that direction is
found in the statement that the
company hss decided to build
from it's terminus at Eldorado, ILL.,
to connection with it's Chicago
line at Marion, Ky. That link in
connection with the western divis-
ion Of the Tennessee Central
would give as direct a line he
tween st. Louis and Nashville as
it is possible to secure.
Ii will be remembered that the
survey for this short line passes
through the Reed Mining compa-
ny's city lots.

z. Goldberg. a Russian, has
been granted a patent or a new
process for eleotrolytically coating
iron with zinc, which consists of

radical and introducing the iron
into the bath and passing the cleo
trio current through the same in
the presence of zinc anods.

MONDELL URGED AS
IRRIGATION CHAIRMAN.

The Washington correspondent of
the Salt Lake Tribune, in speaking of
the probability of Congressman Mon
dell being made chairman of the house
committee on irrigation, made vacant
by the death of Representative Tongue
of Oregon, had this in a recent issue
of his paper:
1T is reported today that friends of
Mr.. Mondell have won the consent of
all members of the committee on irrl-
cation to join in a movement, the OBJ
ject of which is to have Mondell named
as chairman of the committee. They
will wait upon Speaker Henderson and
present the claims of their candidate,
and will also try to enlist the influ.
ence of President Roosevelt in the I'M
dertaking, knowing as they do that Mr..
Mondell is a prime favorite at the
White House. Men interested in irri,
CATION problems in Wyoming and Utah
would hail the elevation of Mr.. Mon,
