TIN ORE IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Government Bulletin Shows Where
It Is Found.

The deposits of tin ore in South
Carolina. North Carolina and Vlr-
ginia are discussed in bulletin on
the tin industry of the country just
issued by the Geological Survey
This bulletin says that 43 per cent.
of the worlds production OF tin IS
consumed in this country, but none
of the metal is produced in the
United States. Tin has been dlscov-
cred in various states but no attempts
have been made to place the industry
on a productive footing. The most
notable deposits are in South Dako-
ia South Carolina, North Carolina,
Virginia and Alaska.
What may be called the Carolina
tin belt extends from Gafney, Chero-
kee county. South Carolina, in
general northeasternly direction
across this country, across the south
eastern corner of Cleveland county,
North Carolina, and across CASTOR
and Lincoln counties, North Caro-
lima. The tin deposits found in
Rockbridge county. Virginia. may
be a continuation Of the Carolina tin
belt across Catawba, Iredell, Yadkln,
and Surry counties, North Carolina.
The principal locality in South Caro-
lima where the tin ore has been found
is about one mile north OF Gaffney,
on land belonging to Capt. S. 5.
Ross. Other deposits are known in
the vicinity of the town Kings
Mountain, North Carolina, on the
southern end of Chestnut Ridge,
about 2 1-o miles northeast OF
King's Mountain: and on the John
F. Jones plantation, ! miles north
cast of Kings Mountain. The
Southern railway traverses a consld-
cradle portion of the tin belt. and any
commercial deposits that may be de-
veloped will have good railroad ia
cilities. The report contains many
interesting details concerning the
geology in this district and the miner
illogical and chemical character of
the ore

Bridge of the Evil Man.

Near Aberstwith, on the west coast
of Wales, where the Monk river
flows through a black, yawning
abyss, there is single arch bridge
of unknown antiquity. The popular
legend says that it was built by the
devil. and far and near it is known
as "The Bridge of Devils" Or "The
Bridge of the Evil Man" British
antiquarians are united in the belief
that it was built by the early monks.
but that fact does not affect the pop
ular legend in the least. "Old Har-
rvs" part in its erection being never
questioned by the inhabitants OF
Cardinganshire. Grose says that
"the bridge is an honor to the land
that built it, whether that hand be
Satan's or that Of some monk"

Life Changes.

The great novel, the great book of
any sort, is no longer being written
for exactly the same reason that the
Gothic cathedral is no longer being
built, not because men have become
incapable of it nor because its pos
sibilities are exhausted. but because
unforeseen changes in social and eco
nomic conditions have rendered it
impossible.
