Messrs. w. L. Shaffer and A. H.
r 1ller of this city. backed by D.nver
tpitalists, have formed a develop
ment company and have taken lease
and bond on the Alice, on Upper Fall
ii i,er, and will proceed at once to de-
tarmine the best methods for treat
ment of Alice ore bodies. Both these
gentlemen have had many years ex-
perience in mining, milling and testing
ores and will devote the summer in
test work.
There is now blocked out over 900,
o)0 tons of ore that will average at
least $.00 per ton. Within thirty
days the company will build a
twenty-ton mill and during the coming
year 300 ton mill will be erected.
This property has been examined
by several prominent mining engineers
who have given it up IN account of
the difficulty of successfully treating
the ores. These gentlemen have faith
to believe that they can overcome all
these difficulties md objections and
make it big paying proposition. The
great ore body was uncovered by the
Giants used in hydraulic work

Chas. Berry, the progressive super
intendent of the Wyandotte M. and Nj.
Company is the object of congratula-
ons over the showing in his property.
SeveraI days ago he decided to make an
upraise from the tunnel level and near
the Lily Extension. After raising
from ten to twelve feet on a small
feeder he encountered a body of copper
and lead ore that has increased in size
until at the height of eighteen feet it is
about three feet in width. The ore is
similar to the Two Brothers ore and
possesses the same characteristics.
This body is supposed to extend back a
distance of five hundred feet. The
company is running two air drills but
tbs: pips line has capacity. for rum
ning a dozen. Mr.. Berry has pushed
his work without "fuss or feathers
believing that the proper way to mine
is to go after results in busines man.

Severe Storm 10 cabarrus.

Last Monday night about 2:3O
O'Clock there was a terrific hail
and wind storm in a portion of
No. II township, which was the
worst that section has ever known.
The cyclone was about one mile
in width, and extended from D.
V. Krimminger's to Franklin
Faggart's, going from northeast
to southwest. It was accompani-
ed by hail, which beat down fruit,
cotton, corn, etc, The wind blew
down many trees, but no houses
were unrooofed. All growing
crops literally riddled, and nearly
all the fruit was knocked off by
the hail. The watermelon CROP
was also badly hurt. The storm
lasted about Is minutes. Those
suffering from the effects of the
storm are the following: Geo. L.
Brown, Asa Blackwelder. George
Litaker, E. F. Faggart, G. A

The Press Hight oned.

Judge Boyd in his charge to
jury in Charlotte some days ago
said that the newspapers of the
county are the leading forces in
procuring intelligent American
ism, which is the best safeguard
of the nation" The Charlotte
News in commenting on Judge
Boyd's remarks adds the follow
ing pointed comment: "This is
we'll merlted. No profession has
attained a higher standard of
worthiness than journalism. 1t is
seldom, indeed that a newspaper
is found to he subsidized or con-
ducted !, tllti ti.an the highest
plane of integrity and honesty.
Occasionally some one who is suf-
fering from stings of publicity
levels charges of bought off and
the like against newspapers, but
the public knows better. The
opinion of Judge Boyd is the opin-
ion of the people, and it would be
impossible to estimate the service
of the press to the life of the ma
tion and it's institutions" Com

Mocksville Courier, July 18th.
We notice that there are few
people, mostly among the younger
generation, who do nothing but
sit around and give their home
enterprises bad name. We are
sure that if these young men who
do this would think about the
matter and give an encouraging
word instead of trying to discour-
age, the other fellow who is run
ming this enterprise would feel
much better and would try and
do all he could to please our good
people. One encouraging word
will do more good than thou
sand harmful ones.

It is strange how much incon-

rent some sections of our public
road for that pose.-Kappa

Death Of Mrs. KfIdar.

Mrs. Maria Krider, aged 70
years, died at her home in the
county on last Saturday morning.
Some weeks ago while rising from
chair Mrs. Krlder fell breaking
her left hip. The shock of the
injury, combined with her feeble
condition of health, proved too
much for her to rally from. The
deceased was the widow of a form
er prominent Presbyterian minis
ter and the mother of Sheriff j.
Hodge Krider. She was an exem-
plary christian woman and expe-
rienced a strong influence for
good in the community where she
lived SO long.

THROUGH NORTH CAROLINA,
Strange Freaks Of Lightning. A Badly
Mixed Family Row,

Camp Glenn, Moorehead City.
where the First and Third regi-
ments will encamp soon, is about
ready for the boys. Artesian wa
tar has been furnished and tested
and pronounced good. A mess
hall big enough for regiment, Is
ready, as is a mess hall for the
officers. Salt and fresh water
shower baths have been arranged.
When the boys go down they will
find a good place prepared for
them. The Lexington company
is in the Third regiment.
The freaks of lightning are in
Vulnerable and inexplicable. The
New Berne Sun says that one
night last week at Woodbury., it
struck house, entered the front
door and knocked the man of the
house out the back door, on to the
porch without injuring him in the
Least; moved the sewing machine
from the parlor to the dining room
and killed thousands of elm tree
beetles which were fast destroying
the shade trees of the village.
In Durham Mrs. Curtis Yates
had her husband arrested for whip
ping her. He turned around and
indicted her for whipping his
children, by his first wife, who is
dead. The brother of the dead
woman also took out warrant
for Mrs. Yates for whipping his
sisters children, The trial was
filled with more pathos than usual.
Thomas Steele, colored mer-
chant IN Freedman, negro quarters
of Lenoir, was killed by lightning
one day last week while he stood
beneath the stove fue in his store.
The bolt passed down the fl ue,
Lightning also struck the barn of
Joseph Lingle six miles from Le-
noir and set it on fire, burning
1900 worth of stock and grain.
He had $500 insurance.
Two boxes of 20 snakes, one
big rattler with II rattles, were
shipped from Brownsville, Texas,
to Greensboro last week, consigned
to 7. Jernigan, who refused them
on the ground of excessive express
charges, the bill being SIT, and
the express company had the
snakes on it's hands. The inten.
tion was to sell them.
People who make business of
