INN NAMES IN ENGLAND.
They Can't Be Changed ut the hlsr
Whim of the innkssper.

Our British cousins evince cu-
rious and contradictory ideas with
reference to proper names. Off
cially they exhibit all their national
conservatism touching the retention
of names in some circumstances; in
dividually they indulge in all man
ner of license in the bestowal of
names upon their offspring.

This would seem to be a sstisfac1

TO DEVELOP BACK COUNTRY
A. c. L. Railroad Ready to Help
People Along Its Lines.

Mr. E B Clark, of Wilmington, the
Atlantic Coast Line railroads immi-
grafton agent for this territory, ac-
companjed by Division Superinten-
dent Charles L Porter, of Rocky
Mount, N C,spent Tuesday in Kings
tree and vicinity discussing with
representative business of the town
ways and means for bringing into
this section the right kind of immi-
grants. Not the foreign riff-raff
and pauper element, but men of
substance and character who
would join with the home people in
building up waste places and getting
the fertile soil Of our county into
high state of cultivation, so that
the full fruition of natures boun-
teous gifts of productive soil and
ideal climate shall be ours.
Mr. Clark expressed himself as be-
ing highly pleased with our county
and its people; said he never saw a
people more willing to help them
selves, and that is the prerequisite
quality in the community as we'll as
in the individual to encourage aid
from others. All are willing to
help those who really want to better
their condition. In his position of i'm
migration agent Mr. Clark is constant.

class of home-seekers and investors
who will make desirable citizens in
any community and he assures US
that in answering their inquiries
about different localities he will not
forget the advantages offered in
Williamsburg county. In thus
bringing together the consumer and
producer, so to speak, Mr. Clark is
of course not actuated wholly by
altruistic motives. In building up
the back country, or contributing to
that end, the Atlantic Coast Line is
laying the foundation for greater
prosperity which must result in

that is to say, its property is but

on the condition of the people who
patronize the road. The latter re-
cieve direct benefit from the work
of such men as Mr. Clark. That fact
being obvious we should do all in
our power to encourage the railroad
in its effort to help US build up our
own country.

MINING NOTES.
ACTIVE LEASERS

McVeigh and Kemont are now
heisting a better grade of ore than
at any time since they commenced
operations. At depth of 20 feet
they encountered a ledge two feet
in width which gives values of from
$50 to $50 per ton.

purchased a whim and are making
good Roadway getting to their cb-
jective point
Kiely, Morris and Meehan will
mill the early part of the coming
week, The boys are not making
any statements as to what the ore
will run, but paintings on their
dump show that it will ran equal
to that of the other leasers on the
Blue Jacket.
The new mill of the Round Noun
tain Mining company is rapidly
nearing completion. 1t is expected
that within four weeks the work
will have been finished and treat
ing ore at double the capacity of
the present milling facilities
The hydraulic workings continue
to bring forth big surprises. Three
blocks have been sluiced during the
past ten days and all the parties
interested will clean up far better
than wages. The Kelleher block is
now being run and Judging from
the appearance of the rifles Mr.
Kelleher's gravel will run much
better than any of the dirt sluiced
on the hydraulic workings.
