MEERSCHAUM IN NEW MEXICO.
Sufficient in Quantity to Break Turkish
Government Monopoly.
From the Kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
Because of the discovery of vast deposits
of meerschaum in the mountains of New
Mexico 1t is likely that the monopoly OF
that mineral heretofore held by the Turkish
government will be broken and pipes of
that material Will be fessened in cost
Until recently all the meerschaum used
in the commerce of the world was produced
from a mine In the plains of Eskihi-sher.
Anatoly, Turkey in Asia. In those mines
are employed 10000 men. The output OF
the mine was owned by the Turkish govern
ment and IT kept the price up.
1t Is said that enough meerschaum has
been discovered in Grant county, n. NJ, TO
supply the worlds needs.
There is q popular belief that meerschauin
is petrified sea foam washed up ages ago
and solidified by some strange process or
nature. Meerschaum Is a mineral known
to scientists as "sepiolite." IL Is composed
principally of silica and magnesium. IL Is
found in assures in the rock, where vol

properties OF resisting high degree of heat
and Its ready absorption OF water II is put
to various electrical and mechanical uses.
In the mines OF New Mexico a solid block
of meerschaum, weighing forty-two pounds
was taken out. 1t was the largest block OF
meerschaum ever mined.

One License Not Returned" "

During the year 1906 the Clerks
Office at Berryville issued total
of 63 marriage licenses, and, so far
as known, all of them we're used.
with one possible exception.
On July ~, 1906, license was
issued to William Richard Wood
wardaged 21, sonof William Henry
and Melissa Woodward, and Miss
Helen Stone Davis, daughter of
William p. and Davis
both of Washington, d. G. The
prospective groom gave his occu-
patton as STUDENT" The license
was granted at the time Mr.. Wood
ward was playing baseball on the
strong Winchester team, where he
was familiarly known to the devo-
tees of the game as "Reddy," and
was popular with everyone.
1t is believed here that the mar
riage came off outside of the State
of Virginia, as Mr.. Wood award had
engaged Rector Edward Wall. of
Grace Episcopal Church, to per
form the ceremony, but failed to
return with the prospective bride
As the license was not returned
to the Clerks Office here by the
officiating minister, as would un-
doubtedly have been the case if
the ceremony had been performed
IN this State, it is probable that the
marriage came off in one of the
adjoining States or the District of
Columbia.

COlYiCtS on Roads.

There was much significance in
a communication printed in The
News Leader yesterday from the
Rev. G. III. Wiley regarding the
condition of the prisoners and CON
victs now in camp i'm Chesterfield
county and employed in cutting
out rock for the proposed boulevard
between Williamsburg and James
town. MIR. Wiley has had long
and intimate experience with prison
work. He tells us that the men in
the camp and employed are hap
pier, more healthy and cheerful
and generally in very much better
physical and moral condition than
those confined in the jaiIs or peni-
tentiary. 1t is easy to understand
that any mar feels better when he
knows that he is being useful and
that the opportunities for the nour-
ishment of vicious habits and ten
denotes arc much less in the open
air and with steady occupation than
in the idleness and close criminal
companionship of a Jail.
The one obstacle to the more
general employment of prisoners
on the roads is the interest the
jailers have in holding the men as
bOarders. Each prisoner means tc
the jailer certain profit every day.
This, however, should not be con
sidered one moment. If it is nee
essary to pay the jailerS a salary tc
make up the losses they may un
dergo from having the prisoners a
work on the roads, the counties anC
the cities and the State can atforC
to pay it better than they can to &c
on maintaining nurseries of crime
and feeding some thousands of able
bodied men in idleness. .-RichmonC

In Honor Of General Lee.

The services held in Grace Epis-
copal Church, under the auspices
of j. K. b. Stuart Camp of Confed-
crate Veterans, last Saturday at IL
O'Clock. were web attended, and
the addres delivered by Capt.
James Bumgardner, of Staunton,
was an extremely able one.
Captain Bumgardner confined
his remarks. during speech last
nearly an hour, to the constitu-
ton and legal rights involed in the
assertion of States rights by the
different ceceding states of the
South.
From a constitutional and legal
viewpoint, it was probably the
most able address ever delivered
before a Berryville audience in
recent years.
The speaker was introduced in a
few well-chosen words by Mai. S.
j. &. Moore, of Berryville. who
spoke so feelingly of the great
commander who led the soldiers of
the South through war which was
lost through overwhelming num-
bers, but whose principles were
coming more and more to be popu-
lar as each day passed.
After the extremely able add rc,s
by Captain Bumgardner, a very
devout and beautiful benedictinn
was pronounced by Rev. Julian
Broaddus, ID. D., of the BerryviIle
Baptist Church.
The address of Captain Bum
gardner will be printed in full next
week, as it was crowded out of this
issue by matter previously received.

For BerryTille Telephone Exchange.

The COURIER has been quietly
investigating a rumor for several
days concering the opening of q
telephone exchange here by the
Frederick and Clarke Telephone
Company.
We have every reason for be-
lieving that the company will in
stall here within the next thirty
days large, modern switchboard
and central station, with the finest
kind of equipment for speedy and
accurate service.
We are sure this will be pleasant
news to the many phone holders
and users here, as the party line
service has never been satisfactory
although the line service was ex-
cellent.
With the exchange which it is
believed the Frederick and Clarke
company will install here, every
citizen of the town and county who
uses telephone, as well as every
subscriber, will be directly bene-
fitted, as an exchange will give
each phone in the town an individ-
ual wire and much better service
in every way.
We certainly join every phone
user in the County in hoping moth
ing will prevent the installation of
the exchange at once.
