SYLVIA IS. BUILD
ing GOOD ROADS;

The Grading of the road from
Sylvia to Cullowhee was started at
Sylva yesterday morning when
Mont Hyatt. the overseer and a
force of hanos went to work in
front of McNeely's shop on the
route surveyed by engineer Murrill.
Beginning at that point the men at
work on the grading will work to-
ward Cullowhee to the Sylvia town
ship line putting the entire road ON
an excellent grade. AS soon as the
grading is finished the macadam
will be laid on that part near Syl-
va and sand-clay will probably be
used near the river. The Cullo-
whee Road Trustees will take up
tie work in that township and we
will have a well graded firm road
that will be good the year around
from Cullowhee to Sylvia.
The machinery to be used on the
grading was bought some time ago,
by the road trustees and arrived
at Sylvia last week.
The work will be under the di-
rection of the road trustees of Sylvia
township who engaged the services
of civil engineer Murrill of Waynes-
vile to do the surveyin9 and K.
Mont Hyatt who Will Maye charge OF
the construction force.

HOT SPRINGS SWEPT
BY FIRE.

Hot Springs Ark, swept by fire,
wbichdestloyed property valued at 6
oOOOOO and $500 of it's people home
less. issued the following statement
Saturday.
While we do not wish to be placed
in the attitude for asking for out
side assistance, the cry of suffering
humanity suggest the propriety of
accepting any any assistance that
nay be offered by generous pub
lie. Thousands of people have
been rendered penniless and home
less. The destitution is acute and
the need of assistance is imperative
and immediate Ordinarily, we
could take care of our local citizens
in disaster of this kind-but there
are hundreds of citizens from other
states thrown on our bounty. This
makes our burden great indeed"
The fire had it's organ in a negro
cabin Friday evening and burned an
area of about 200 acres.

Mr.. JAS. v.
MCKEE dead.

Although he had been in state
of such feeble health for several
months as at times to excite the
gravest fears among his friends of
ultimate result, perhaps few were
prepared for the announcement
that Mr.. Mckee had passed away
about 2 o'clock on Saturday morn
ing Sept. 9Th.
Mr.. Mckee was managing partner
in the Sylvia Supply Company
which does a large business in GER
eral merchandise in Sylvaand had a
large circle of acquaintance anJ
many sincere friends as was attest
ed by the large concourse of people
who attended his funeral Sunday
afternoon which took place from
the Methodist Church of which he
was leading member
Mr.. Mckee was about As years of
afe and leaves a wife and one
daughter surviving him, besides his
mother, two sister and two brothers.
| His remains were inferred in the
local cemetery with Masonic hon
ors by the Sylvia Lodge assisted by
members of Webster, Beta and Bry-
son City Lodges, the religious ex-
ercises being conducted by Revs.
W.O. Davis and J. J. Gray.
The Journal extends to the family
land friends its sincere sympathies
/ in the sad bereavment which has
befallen them.

North CAROLINA
PRODUCES MOST MICA

For many years North Carolina.
has been the largest producer of
mica in the United States. accord
ing to the United States Geological
Survey. Prior to 1895 the output
came chiefly from the larger mines
and consisted of big sheets of fine
quality At that time latge quanti-
ties of small sheet mica that would
cut plates less than 8 inches square
were thrown on the d ,mps as waste.
After the small sheet and scrap
mica became valuable. the dumps
at the large mines were worked
over and the quantity of mica pro-
duced thereby greatly increased.
Now that most of the dumps have
been worked over and only a few
large mines are in operation, the
output is barely maintained by a
large number of small mines and
prospects, probably as many as a
hundred. Many of these are worked
by the mountaineer farmer and
miner at times when crops are laid
by, and occasionally one OF the
prospects develops into larg de-
posit.

BAD CONDITIONS
AT PORTSMOUTH.

AT PORTSMOUTH.
This morning the mail boa
which operates between Beaufort
and Ocracoke started on it's regular
trip and succeed in reaching Ports
mouth. This was the boats first
visit at that place since Tuesday
morning, and the inhabitants told
a story of the worst storm in the
history of the town.
All over the place the wetert
surged, and many houses were
swept from their under pinning.
Boats located, were either sunken
or torn from their anchorage and
have not since been seen. Many
cattle and fowl were killed by the
storm, and the damage to personal
property will amount to several
thousand dollars.
The mail boat did not make the
trip to Ocracoke on account of the
threatening weather, but at Ports
mouth it was learned that there
had been no fatalities. Ocracoke is
at very much exposed point, and
grave fears were felt for the safety
of it's inhabitants, but the storm
seems to have swept alongside the
place instead across and this prob
ably accounts 1or the fact that it
was not destroyed.
The boatman who reached More
head City said that horses and COWS
were killed in large numbers, and
hat many buildings were washed
down and also that nearly every
boat anchored at that harbor were
sunken or washed away.
Efforts were made here to get in
communication with the life-savinf
station at hatteras and get more
complete particulars but thes'
proved of no avail.

Bern division of the North Carolin;
