Savannah girl, who recently went to
New Haven, where Norton has been a
student of the Sheffield scientific
school.

to marry, was invited to return

averse to his living with his wife, who
once was housemaid, he has announced
his intention Of going to work and
making home for himself. e.
The elder Norton, with his son-in-
law, A. c. Conway Of Boston, visited
Yale Wednesday, and after receiving
the young man s ultimatum from New
York over the telephone, packed up
and shipped his effects to this city.

who universally approve of his mar
rage because they know he loved Miss
Birney, it is rumored that the secret
alliance was hurried. by him because
an athlete very prominent in the uni
versity was also infatuated with her.

OLD COPPER MINE
IS IN NEW JERSEY RS
OPENED 100 YEARS AGO AND Wis.
TIED BY WASHINGTON.
Roosevelt's Great Granduncle Had an
Interest in it-Franklin Describes His
Visit to the Mine Shafts Had to Be
Pumped Clear Of Water.

Arlington, N. 1.-THE oldest copper
mine in America is the Schuyler, of
this place. which was opened 100 years
ago. Great men had part in the early
days Of this mine. Benjamin Franklin
was here in 1749, when he advised the
owner to install a steam engine to pump
the shafts free from water. In a letter
to Jared Eliot, under date Of Feb. Is,
1850, Franklin describes his visit to the
mine and states that the ore therefrom
had made several persons rich, and that
he had advised the owner to spend
FL 900 for an engine of a type he had
seen in the mines Of Cornwall.
The working Of this mine began in
17l4, when six tons Of ore were sent
to Bristol, England, for smelling. The
returns were large and immed iately "a
project was set on foot to establish a
smelling plant near the mine, in which
English coal would be used and the
product used for the copper coins
needed for the colonies. Soon afterward
ten casks Of ore were shipped to Hol
land.
Governor Hunter of New York and

and the wonderful engine. AS soon as
the shafts were pumped clear, mining
began on profitable basis. From
1775 until 1888 the troublous times
caused the shutting down Of the works.
In 1893 Nicholas J. Roosevelt, a great
granduncle Of President Roosevelt, ac-
quired an interest in the mine, and he
z and Hornblower and some others organ
lied the New Jersey Copper Mining as
sociation to work the mine and also to
operate q smelter and a copper and
brass rolling mill.
At times from the formation Of the
federal union until sixty years ago the
product from this old mine was used
for coinage into the big copper cents Of
our grandfathers and for trade tokens,
then used by retail merchants as small
coin. For a number Of years John
Hewitt, father Of Abram s. Hewitt, was
in charge of the Schuyler mine, and
there as boy Abram Hewitt acquired
his liking for metal working.
