BIDDING FOR SCHOOL.
Ehrhardt in the Race For Baptist
Institution.

Ehrhardt, May 1.-At a mass meet
ing of the citizens of Ehrhardt and
vicinity called to meet in Copeland
hall Thursday night it was unani-
mously decided to go in after the
Baptist fitting school, which it is pro-
posed to establish in this section of
South Carolina, which is to be to
Furman university what Carlisle is
to Wofford. This meeting was well
attended by most of the citizens and
business men and organized with DR..
J. L. Copeland, chairman, and w. D.
Bennett, secretary.
After much discussion a committee
composed of the following was ap-
pointed to represent the community:
Prof. J. H: A. Carter, J. G. Herndon,
DR.. J. L. Copeland, w. D. Bennett, j..
G.. Kinard, G.. Ehrhardt, H. Karesh,
A. B. Coggins, D. NJ. Smith, j. NJ.

Clayton, G.. B. Kinard, DR.. ]. IL.
Hucks, J. w. Carter, Prof. l.. E. Kir-
by, the Rev. P. D. Risinger and
George w. Morningstar.
Ehrhardt is well located geo.
graphically for it's location, the center
of a busy community of refined and
cultured people and the committee
in charge of this matter can not go
far wrong in giving claims to this
school their most serious and favor
able consideration.

that his son, D. K. Griffith and a COL

Edisto river swamp. It had FL rat

five and a half feet in length.

The commissioners of public works
have installed a twenty horsepower
electric pump at the power house for
the water plant. This pump replaces
the old steam pump. 1t is said that
the electric pump can be operated
more economically than the steam
pump, and that the results are more
satisfactory. The pump has a capaci-
ty of about 900 gallons per hour,
which will be ample to supply plenty
of water even during the hottest
days.
The Bamberg postmaster has been

are invited to present their views re-
garding the alleged obstruction to the
Edisto river by a cutoff and bridge

relative to the matter, but it is sug-

MINING ORE At ALPS MINE
VEINS NARROW BUT RICH

I. The Alps Mino, controlled by the
Lloyd interests of Phoebe and Salt
Lake City will shortly be again in
the shipping class. A large amount
of work has been accomplished by
the owners of the property and the
mine is now in excellent condition
with all the old workings readily
available for exploration. On the
three hundred foot level ore is be-
ing mined in two places and while
the vein is small it is high grade,
samples across the vein assay $500
in gold, 1915 ouices in silver and
1872 per cent lead. About ton OF
this material is saved every day from
the development work now being
lone and small shipment will be
forwarded to market early in Oc-
tober.

.|LL|PAH PETS NEW
WELL DOWN 4l6FT.

j. E. Amenda, manager of the Illi-
pah Petroleum company, arrived
home last week from visit to Phoebe
and other towns in the southern por-
ton OF the State, where he met with
substantial encouragement in his en-
terprise from citizens of that section.
Immediately upon his return he vis-
tied the companys property at Illi-
pah, and reports that the new we'll
whichwas spudded in August 2S had
reached depth of 416 feet on Tues
day last, and that Rube Kerr, who is
in charge of the drilling, has laid a
wager of $50 that it will reach a
depth of 1000 feet within thirty days
from date
Tie drilling is now on the beam
and has separate lines for casing and
bailing, which proves great saving
of time, and as two shifts working
twelve hours each are employed, Mr..
Amenda is Of the opinion that the
regular oil sands will be reached by
October Is. The new well, accord
ing to Mr. Amenda, has already pass
ed through the first oil sands, which
showed gas pressure and slight seep-
ages Of oil, but as the well is being
cased as it goes down this is not
noticeable. The derrick has been in
creased to the standard size, which
adds considerable additional power
to the tools, hence the work is pro
crossing rapidly.
The first we'll, according to Mr.
Amenda. reached oil sands at 90:
feet, but so much trouble was en-
countered with water and gas pres
sure at that depth that it was fount
necessary to abandon the hole AM
start a new one, which was spotte,

TERRITORY
IS LEASED BY SALT
LAKE MINING men

L. A. Anderson and A. z. Near
thur. mining operators of Salt LAX
City recently secured an attractive
Bristol territory and are pushing
their development work with vigor.
A tunnel is being driven from
point ON the surface near the Gypsy
workings. The objective of this tun-
mel is the intersection of the main
North and South assures with the
Gypsy assure. This tunnel with q
proposed length Of 1000 feet will
tap the May Day Mine at depth Of
approximately so feet, the Inman
mine at a depth of ESQ feet, while
500 feet of backs will be made avail
eble in the Tempest and Hillsiio
properties.
The area which will be traversed
by the tunnel is mineral bearing and
developments may be ex-
pected at any time. Although the
leasers have been working only a
short time, the tunnel has been ad
vanced so feet. The Inman, Temp
est and Hillside properties are al
Icredited with substantial past pro
auctions and there are thousands o.
tons of ore which the development
tunnel will make profitable by re
! dueing the mining and extraction
costs. Great possibilities evist il
the Bristol district and constructive
mining will open them up with fu
ture profit.

PUT THIS N YOUR PIPE
AND SMOKE OPTIMISM

Yes, the country is still marking
time, but all the same. the straws
that show the wind are piling up In
pretty hood-sized stack, indicating
that better times are on the way.
These straws are facts. Consider
few of, them:
The railroad earnings are improve
ing. Car loadings are on the In
crease. The steel industry has seen
the worst Of dullness. Copper like
wise Wooden mills are more active.
Silk trade is reviving. Leather and
hides markets are betting busy. Cot
ton prices are moving surplus cot
ton stocks. The sugar industry is
picking up on higher prices. More
! building and construction every day.
Merchandising and retail trade re-
spending to increasing groups OF
buyers. Lumber dealers are moving
their stock. Banks are loosening up
and beginning to snppors business IN
businesslike way. And fiood-tidt
of gold from foreign countries has
placed, so far, well over 0,00O ,00o
real gold coin in American vaults! +,
But most important Of all the
signe-of which the above is only
meager samples the gradualsturn'
ing of pessimists into optimists. A
country must believe in itself, ant
look cheerfully toward the future
before there can be any future
worth believing in, says Shugar

as shown in the Yuba, argues well
for the future yield of the porphyry

throughout the entire territory.
Comparatively little work has been
done or exploration made on this

ton even above water level should
certainly be immense. The old Yuba

Phoebe at the company smelter on
Meadow Valley summit, assayed !:
Gold, $500; silver 51.s ounces; lead
33.5 per cent The second class or
concentrating ore left in the mine
will run from 20 to 80 ounces in sill
yer and from s to IL per cent lead
per ton and contains about so per
cent silica. An average sample OF
the heavv base ore found in the low
est level of the Yuba mine ran as
follows: Gold, $500; silver, 65.5
ounces; 10.5 per cent lead; 81 pei
cent CO er inc 205 per cent

phur 1915 per cent. The character
of the ore is the same as that found
throughout the porphyry ledge.
The discovery of good grade ship

by the North and South fissure above
the main Gypsy fissure.
Assays OF the product show 2s.4
ounces of silver, 17.2 per cent cop

will bring a most satisfactory SET
