Special Correspondence.
Salem. w. Va, March o Enough Ii
known to state that Ernest Randolph,
the defeated leader of Salem Democracy,
has picked ON Charles A. Short. OF.
Shinnston, and Is unaltrrably opposed to
Jackson v. Carter. OF Tennaiic district.
The ground assigned for this preferences
on the part Of thh defeated leader is that
Carter halls from Randolphs own dis.
trict and he is afraid that the party
would not nominate him for prosecuting
attorney, il it nominated Carter With
this in view as well as being governed
by personal prejudices, Randolph, is said
to be lighting Carter with teeth andtoc
nails. One of tho county papers having
presented Carriers name as well rs his
picture. there was rush TO get Shorts
name before the Democratic voters of
Tenmile district and so the attorneys
newspaper coupled it with Carriers and
said both are being mentioned for the
place, but according to the best inside
information that can be gotten, It win
not be many moons before the paper win
be fighting Carter just like one Of its
masters has begun to do. Randolph de-
MES that he is candidate for the NOM
nation for prosecuting attorney, but it
looks like he will have to adopt Dave
Hills methods, when the latterfs Dcmoc-
racy was questioned and keep repeating
that he is not such candidate.

BURGLARY OF. SALOON THwARTED

There was strong belief that the

by trustee c. B. Sperry. would be burg
larized Tuesday night. By oversight the

had been burglarined several times and
there was cause for the belief that it
might he burglarizcd that night, and Mt
a late hour measures were taken to have
the lights turned on. This was accom-

TIN IN UPPER PENINSULA
Ore Has Been Found In Kewee-
nav County, 1t is Reported. y

Ore Has Been Found In Kewee-
nav County, 1t is Reported.
There is tin in Michigan, and there
is possibility that tin and copper
may be mined side by side.
or all the metals Of any CONNER
mercial Importance, tin is the only
one that is not produced in the
United States. The worlds princi-
pal supply Of this useful metal comes
from the Bolivic straits and settle
ments Of the Malay peninsula.
Tin has been found by two differ
ent parties in Keweenaw county,
some thirty miles north OF Hough-
ton, but for different reasons these
discoveries were never followed up.
The visit to this district OF Q former
resident, and his mention OF the
finding Of tin ore on the head waters
OF the Tobacco river many years ago
brought to light the fact that simi-
lar discovery OF tin ore was made
on the same stream by William Har-
kell, of Hancock, some twelve years
ago. Although Cornish miner,
Harkell did not know the nature OF
his find until the specimen brought
home was identified later by min
eralogist who happened to see it.
On returning to the spot the banks
Of the stream were found caved in
and no more ore was in sight. As
the land was owned by another
party, no attempt was made then to
follow up the discovery.
These low counties, being OF gran.
tie. would seem more natural home
for the veins OF tintome than the
trappean rocks of the Malay
peninsula, but the discovery OF tin
ore in Keweenaw county is authen'
ticated.
Tin is also alleged to have been
found in Alaska, though but little
has been heard Of the matter for some
time past.
AS iron is the most widely diffuseo
OF all metals, so tin is the least com
mon among the metals in use.-
Horace ]. Stevens.
There have been occasional rumors
in the last few years OF the discov
ery of tin in the Huron mountain
district of Baraga and Marquette
counties. The finds in the Huron
mountains lack verification, though
it is probable that the alleged dis
coveries were genuine.

A large and enthusiastic crowd gath
cred on the Mount Pleasant grounds
yesterday afternoon to witness the de-
feat of the GUrley Presbyterians in a
fast game by the team that halls from
their sister church. the Fourth, by Z
to 3.
Both teams were on their toes from
the start, and put up q game that was
hard to beat. Several times there were
breaks in the fielding Of the Gurleys,
and especially at the second sack, but
these were more than made UP for -
the brilliant fielding OF the other play
erS.
Inability Of the Gurleys to hit the ball
at opportune stages Of the game IS
partly spOnsible for the far apart
score which was the result OF the
game several times durins the playing.
The Tigers had three men on base
twice. with but one man out and once
with none out. and all three times
failed 10 cross the counting pan.
Donaldson did the twirling for the
the pitchers line. He was replaced by
RED" Waller In the seventh. and then
the Gurleys began their run-getting.
making all three Of the runs that were
made by their side while the big East
ern League pitcher was in the box.
Harring was DonaldsOns opposing
twirler, and considering the backing he
received on several occasions, put up
good game. He had his old catcher,
Johnnie Beall, in the game to back him
up. and the johnnie battery put lots
of backbone into the Gurley lads.
