Recent Development.
Development work has been in pro-
gress for several months. Shafts have
been sunk and drifts and crosscuts run,
and surface workings in various places.
A force Of from so to 60 miners is en-
ployed. The surface workings have dis
closed abundant ores. The main Ques-
ton to be solved is the continuity and
depth of naturalization. The utmost
reticence is maintained by the manage
ment as to present showings.
100000 Tons of Ore.
It is understood that a large ton
mage, nearly a million tons OF 1 to 2
percent tin ore is already blocked out.
The last public statement made by
the manager was that the west drift
was in ore and the east drift had I
percent tin ore. In the east drift OF
the San Juan shaft was all in ore a
body of ore 80 feet long was cut, run
ming 80 percent over the whole width
of the drift, and in the west drift there
was ore all over the breast.
This is the age of gigantic mining
operations. Copper porphyries. with
low grade percentage OF disseminated
sulphides. that can be concentrated in
huge mills after being mined by steam
shovels. and in the Orient similar meth
DDS on GRANTEES bearing tin are most at
tractive to great capital.
Immense Tin Area.
Prof. Chauvenet says that the Mount
Franklin tin area has a length of near
ly a mile north south, and varying
width, east-west, probably 1000 feet on
the average, but more in certain areas
1t is wholly in the granite. The gran
lite, an intrusive mass, is coarse in tex
ture. and very deficient in mica, or in
deed in any of the minerals other than
quartz and feldspar. 1t is traversed
by a number of bikes of pegmatic con-
tents which have been partly silicified,
at least near the surface, so that in GER
tain cases they present the aspect OF
quartz veins. The strike of these dikes
is roughly east and west. the dip being
nearly vertical, and vary from Few
inches to four feet in width, but rarely
over two feet in thickness.
The Formation.
The cassiterite (tin oxide) accom-
panies the quartz in these bikes, and is
often disseminated in both quartz and
pegmatite, but far more in the former
A very curious feature of the mineral
ization is that it extends outside of the
dikes into the surrounding granite,
which, in the impregnated portions,
looks TO the naked eye like pink field
spar. Much of the granite in the
immediate vicinity of the dikes," says
Prof. Chauvenet, 'is disintegrated and
many pieces Of the 'cassiterite gran
fte' have been picked up in the float
or side rock of the mountain slope"
This impregnation is very irregular.
Naturally, it is strongest close to the
bikes, and fades away rapidly, so that
at a few feet away from the latter the
ore no longer shows to the eye. Usual
ly it is very dark brown in color. Very
rich tin ore has been taken from the
granite (outside of the dikes) and in
numerous places. It will run from a

Concentration Experiments.


Experiments on the concentration of
this ore have been made at several
places and by different methods. Two
lots were sent to Denver and tested
at the works of Henry E. Wood The
larger lot Of about one ton consisted OF
granite assaying almost exactly 1 per-
cent metallic tin The other was a
smaller and much richer sample of
quartz ore asSaying nearly 10 percent
The separation of the tin oxide was
better in the granite ore, but was salts

total saving, but the product was of a
lower tenor.
At other points experiments were
made by pneumatic process, results be-
ing very close to those obtained on
ordinary tables. The Sutton-Steele wa

is scarce on the property and while
ii could probably be developed in suffi-
cient quantity, says Prof. Chauvenet,
the management favorsa the adoption OF

Mr. Motley has Appendicitis.

Mr. D E Motley was taken with
appendicitis Sunday. His condition
being very serious, on Monday he
was carried to Florence to the Nc
Leod infrmary. where prompt dag
nosiS disclosed the fact that an i'm
mediate operation was necessary to
save his life. The operation was
accordingly performed as soon as
possible and We understand that he
rallied very well from the shock. At
last accounts no untoward SYMPTOMS
had developed and his friends hope
that he may soon recover.
Mr. Motley was accompanied to
to Florence by his father, Mr. J R M
Motley, DR. C D Jacobs and Sheriff
Graham.

With clean political record, one
of the best informed constitutional
lawyers of the State and, withal, a
brilliant parliamentarian, besides
being possessed of a presiding dignity
that enhances the force of his
rulings, Hon Mendel l. Smith is
probably as well fitted for the
high and honorable position OF
Speaker of the House as any man
in South Carolina. With such
material available it is to be hoped
that the House of Representatives
will not allow blind partianship
to obscure good judgment in Sc
lecting their presiding officer.

A stakeholder of the Pennsyl-

demand upon the officials of the
company for information as to an
alleged Indebtedness to the road
by Theodore Roosevelt incurred
while the latter was President of
the United States by going on
iunketing tours. The total mileage
travelled over the Pennsylvania on
these tours is said to have been
over $1,000 miles on private ears,
amounting to over 500, 900, for
which the railroad has never been
paid one cent. Complaint is rife
among the small stockholders,
who are urging the officials to
take steps to recover what Is due

also Is said to have claims against
the former President aggrcgating

A Word to Boys Of the Corn Club

Dear Boys
The time for harvesting your corn
crop is on us. A committee WAS ap-
pointed in your several communities
to measure your corn and the
ground. You have full instructions
from the Department of Agriculture
as to making your reports. These
reports must be filed with the Coun-
ty Superintendent of Education not
later than October %. Some time
early in November we will have a
corn exhibit at Kingstree, where a
competent committee will see the
prize ears, examine the reports, hear
the yields and award the prizes.
Don't be discouraged if your yield
is low, for other considerations, as
your written report Of the crop, the
1O-ear exhibit, etc, may increase
your chances for good prize.

IT. is persistently rumored that
efforts are being made to establish
another daily newspaper in Column
bia. The prime movers are said to
be the following persons: Mr. George
X Koester, formerly editor of the
defunct Columbia Register and
later on, editor of the Columbia
Daily Record; Hon George R REM
bert, who led the Legislative ticket
in the recent Richland primary.
Mr. Rembert is also announced to
be the administration leader" on
the floor of the House, whatever
that may imply. A third active
promoter is said to be Hon AS
bury F Lever, who recently sue

nominee in the Seventh Congress
sional district. That the Governor
elect Will take liberal block of
the stock goes without saying, and
hundreds of other admirers OF
Governor Blease both in the city
and throughout the State would
doubtless invest some of their sur
plus capital in the new venture.
Mr. Koester is clever and virile
newspaper writer and knows thor
oughly every detail of the making
of u daily newspaper. 1t Is pro-
posed, they say, to start the enter
prise with a quarter of million
dollars capital. Should the VEN
