Epitor Rerieotor."As a mat-
ter cf business policy would it not be a
god idea for all the people of Green-
ville to unite together and extend . to
Messrs. Hines & Hamilton encourage-
ment and.aid in yetting on their. feet
azain ? Only a few days ago the
: ~writer heard Mr. Hamilton say that he
p | had every dollar that he possessed in
the world invested in the plant that
was Monday totally destroyed. As
most people k now it has not been very
long since these gentlemen lost about
ten thousand dollars by fire, and as a
matter of coruse, with noaid but their
own, they were compelled to use their
E | creditin getting up again, The insur-
ance that they carried at the last fire
was entirely for the benefit of their ered-
R | itors, go it dan be seen at present they
are totally without everything upon
which to make a new start. Since they
have been in Greenville they have
made a good fight, and as business men
of the highest rank they have clearly
shown tkemselves in their dealings with
the people here. The writer is told
that their entire pay roll for logs and
labor averaged from ten to fifteen hun-
dred dollars per week. This money
swelled the volume of business of Green-
ville and helped every enterprise here,
and as above stated, would it not be
business policy for the people here to
help them up again? We have made
some enquiries of these gentleman and
they say say with the support they can
get from abroad and the business they
already have, with five thousand dol-
lars of ready cash they ocould replace
the plant aud get it in running shape
again,, Now cannot some means be
addgeed by whieh the community can
aid them to} this ~extent? Jost think
| of it"they pay out nearly or quite that
amount every month, the most of it
right here in Greenville and by ex-
tending them this aidhere at home it
will the better enable them to command
indulgence and aid from abroad. These
gentlemenare not at all upon a beg gging
expedition, but they have lost and
lost heavily, and the community has.
lost, and unless some aid is given them
at preserit it looks very doubtful that
the plant will be rebuilt. The public
est m this matter. If this support can
need, a great good will have been done
the community, and the proper en-
couragement and aid at the proper time
given these estimable and enterprising
gentlemen. J. L. T.

when a few more years haye been added

at large ought to feel a very great inter-
be given now in this, their time of
NEGLIGENCE SOMEWHERE.
And it is Laid at the Door of the| JT
Town Authorities.
Since the dre Monday that caused
the complete destruction of the Green-
ville Lumber CoTs plant, there has been
considerable talk ~about the breaking
down of the fire engine just at the time
the fire was getting under control, and
many inquiries as to the cause: The
Rer.ector asked some of the firemen
ft
was due to negligence and stinginess
on the part of the town authorities.�
He then went on ty explain that
every time the engine had been used it
had gone back into the engine house
just as it came from the fire without]
being overhauled and placed in thor-
ough condition for use again, and that
by this neglect the valves to the pumps
had become clogged up and impaired.
He farther stated that the authorites
would not even purchase the chemicals
necessary to keep the tank on the en-
gine charged for immediate use when a
fire is first reached, that members of
the fire company had in two or threé
instances bought: the chemicals them-
selves, but did not feel that they: should
continue going into their own pockets
to pay for chemicals and for overhaul-
ing and repairing the engine.
We give these facts as they were
told us, and without embelishment. If
suct. is the state of affairs it shows
great negligence on the part ot the
town authorites. It is certainly the
duty ot the town to keep the fire en-
gine in perfect working order, and we
trust that the new Board of Council-
men now taking charge will see that}:
Greenville has ~suftered
this is done.
enough already because of inadequate
provision for fighting fire.
Kinston Ready to Assist Her Neigh-
bor.
There is no tie that can more closely
bind people and communities together
than that wrought through misfortune.
The hand of assistance that is extended
in time of distreess touches a pulse ot
gratitude which throbs stronger and
is more lasting than can be caused in
any-other way. In this respect Green-
ville feels especially drawn toward the
good people of Kinston, That town
during the past year having suffered
great calamity because of fires, knows
well how tu sympathize with others in
the midst of like afflictions, and her ef-
forts to come to the aid ot Greenville
fwhen such misfortunes were sweeping
down upon us cements more firmly the
ties of friendship between the twe towns
and arouses the deepest feelings of grat-
itude in the breasts of our people. In| @epe
speaking of MondayTs fire here and the] %
call for the Kinston company to come to
our assistance, the Free Press says :
oThe telegram from Greenville for |
our fire department came about 1 :30
oTclock. The two hose wagons. and
engine were at the S. N. .& K, depot in |:
fifteen minutes, and about all the mem-|
bers ot the company were there ready, |
waiting for the special to take them to | x
Greenville, Itwas a disappointed crowd |
when a message came from Mayor
Forbes, of Greenville, that the fire had
progressed too far for our department to
be of any patie: and. brad the _"
would not coine.� es nk

Henry Metzger; an-iceman. It is one
ofa team. Whether its mi te knows as
much is yet to be demonstrated.
Metzger was: driving down Montgom-
ery street. He drove dangerously near
an excavation that had been tnate for a
big water pipe. :
As the team was stopped, the earth
at the side of the excavation gave way,
and one of the males slid out of its har-
ness and inte the hole. It landed on
its feet, and did not seem to be worried
about its sudden descent, The hole
was avout five feet deep, and the mule
thrust its head out mid seemed to be in-
clined to ask the workmen who had
dug the pitfall what they were going to
do about it.
It it had asked, they probably would
~not have been able to answer the ques-
tion. "They congulted with Mr. Metz-
yer, but neither he sor they could think
of any plan tor. lifting the mule out ¢
the hole.
While they were deliberating the
mule reached out its head, stretched its
neck, and with its nose began pulling
the dirt that lay banked about into the
hole from which it had been taken.
Whether, the mule really solved the
problem or not will never be known,

throwing the earth back into the hole.

Then it walked back to its mate and

left of the stove but fragments. Then
he was into the next room, where an"

The kitchen stove went next, and after
everything in the house were sacrificed
in the gratification of his insane destruc-

oHis wife, pale faced and terror
stricken, stood by and watched the de-
molition of her house. The trightened
children crept out of, bed and crowded
around their mother. Noneof them
uttered a cry until he threw down his
axe and started towards the little
group. The children screamed and
fled back mto the bedroom. They
locked the door separating the rooms

the children ran, as if his purpose had
been to frighten them off, and went to
the kitchen.
oThe terrified wife stood in the cor-
ner. White came back with an oil can
in his hands. The cover had been
taken off the can, and while he held her
with one hand he soaked her dress with
kerosene. For the first time she under-
stood his awful intention. Fear gave
her voice and she screamed. repeatedly.
The children joined.in her appeals for
help, and their outery was heard by po-
liceman McNamara who chanced to be
passing. Guided by their cries he
made his way to the door in the dark-
ened hallway.
It was locked. He placed his shoul-
der against it and barst it open. He
was just intime. A moment later and

Immense Quantities of Ore Contained in
the Various Mines"More Than
Enough to Supply the "
Whole World.
The development of MinnesotaTs iron
ranges are not by any means com-
pleted; they are continuing daily, and
wealth that was not dreamed of a year
or less ago is now laid bare for the ham-
mer of the assayer and the ton meas-
urement of the buyer and the miner.
As an instance of this is the develop-
ment made during the past few months
in the northern part of township 57-17,
and the southeast quarter of town
58-17. Discoveriesare made and still con-
| tinuing in the northern tier of sections
of; tewn 57-17, especially in section 5,
where nine acre tracts have been
shown to be well-nigh covered with ore.
and where there has been proved mil-
lions of tons. This ore body, with that
of the Adams, Vega and Fayal mines,
with which it is believed to be connect-
ed, is one of the largest on the range,
and six months ago its existence, ex-
cept so far as the mines named were
concerned, was scarcely conjectured.
Among the holders of Mesaba ore the
Lake Superior Consolidated Iron mines
is far ahead in quantity of ore held,
much of it, being, however, under min
eral lease to other operators, and more
of it being held by the Consolidated
under lease from the original holders.
Owing to some circumstances connect-
ed with the formation of the company
by Mr. RockefellerTs associates its hold-
ings were obtained at small expense,
and owing to the same circumstances
it is difficult to separate the cost of
the mines from that of the road, which
fell into Mr. RockefellerTs hands at the
same time. It is safe to assume that
$1,500,000 paid for all the so-called Mer-
_| ritt properties that went into the Con-
solidated company, together with all
costs connected with their admission
into .theT company, including some
subsequent settlements. These. prop-
erties, some of which are lease and
some fee, are believed by the most con-
servative to contain 70,000,000 tons of
ore of various grades. In addition to
these the company has the Adams
mine, the Lake Superior, the Lone
Jack and the McKinley and the Rouche-
leau-Ray 80 under option. These will
have cost, when the option is taken up,
about $2,500,000, and contain not lese
than 95,000,000 tons of ore. The Luke
Superior leases are figured as covering
at least 50,000,000 tons, and the Adams
lease is put at a very conservative fig-
ure, far below what the owners are
willing to concede. There is here at
iron holding of not far from 160,000,000
tons, all obtained at a round cost of
$4,000,000.
The Minnesota Iron company has
about. 40,000,000, tons in sight at the
Mesaba mines, and for them it has paid
almost $1,000,000. Some of the largest
are leases. In addition to their own
mines, the company has a tonnage con-
tract with the Vega, which is regarded
as one of the most important mines
of the range, with, perhaps. 10.000,000
tons im sight.
The Roucheleau-Ray company still
holds not far from 30,000,000 tons, of
which about. two-thirds is fee. The
Sauntry exploration is estimated at
not far from 15,000,000 tons. The
Fowler explorations, the Seeurity Land
holdings, mostly under option to
the Minnesota Iron company; the
smaller properties, contain at least 30,-
000,000 tons. There remain the vast
holdings of the Wright and Davis syn-
dicate on.the western part of the range
on which are several mines and an
enormous amount of partially explored
lands. A report made on these hold-
ings for the Minnegota. Iron company
a year ago, and ~on which the latter
company based an offer for the entire
tract, showed them to contain ore esti-
mated at about 60,000,000 tons.
The Minnesota Iron company paid
about, $8,000,000 for the Charlemagne
Tower imterests.on the Vefmilion
Range. - Nobody -outside the. of-
ficers of the eompany, and.probably
not they themselves, kwow the ore hold-
ings inthe ur leveloped Jands they
own, though the mines at present
worked have been pretty well pune-
tured by. the diamond drill, and for
1,000 feet down are as well understood
~Yas if they ~were sliced bare, Vast as
j these holdings are, they sink into in-
significance, so far as the totals go,
compared to the
quantities on the sister range. Two
other companies are mining the Ver-

oGLIMPSE AT THE CHINESE.
A Resident of Shanghai Tells of Their
Failings and Virtues.
A very handsome and distinguished-
looking gentleman is Mr. Francis W.
Harrell, a former citizen of Virginia,
but now a resident of Shanghai, China,
who, with his wife, is visiting Wash-
ington. Mr. Harrell lived for six years
in Japan, occupying the chair of Eng-
lish in the leading university of that
country, and there he met his future
wife, who was the first child of white
parents born in the mikadoTs domin-
ions. Mrs, Harrell not only speaks
Japanese like a native, but she is pro-
foundly versed in the literature of the
country. Mr. Harrell is now connected
with the great shipping firm of N. J.
Robinson & Co., and he comes to the
United States to contract for some
high-power guns, to be used by the
Chinese in defending several of their
important rivers.
oThe Chinese government,� said he,
ois in a bad way, and any organized
effort to overthrow it, if backed by a
few capable and determined leaders,
would doubtless be successful. The
present dynasty is very unpopular, and
a great many people were glad bucause
of its humiliation by the Japanese. The
despotic rule of the mandarins has
deadened all patriotic feeling. They
are non-progressive as well as tyran-
nical, and block the ways to the open-
ing of the empire to railroads, tele-
graph lines and all other accompani-
ments of civilization. As long as the
masses can be kept in ignorance their
power and prestige will be secure. The
mandarins incited the lower classes to
the recent massacre of the mission-
aries, but the instigators were shrewd
enough to escape punishment them-
selves
oBut it will not do to underrate the
Chinese because of their defeat by a
smaller nation. With proper military
organization they would prove a for-
midable foe to any power on earth.
The men are brave, and they only nee~l
training to become first-class soldiers.
oAs a business people they are far
superior to the Japanese. When a Chi-
nese merchant gives his word it is
sacred; there is no use in putting a
contract in writing when dealing with
them, and if in rare cases one defaulis,
his relatives or friends cheerfully com-
ply with the obligation. On the con-
trary, the Japs will break their word
whenever self-interest dictates, and the
only way to deal with them is by writ-
ten instruments. They are bright and
clever, but lacking in the solid and en-
during qualities of the Chinese.
oShanghai is one of the most beau-
tiful and well-kept cities of the east,
and well deserves the title of ~Little
Paris.T In some ways it is the most
peculiar city or earth. The natives
have a government of their own, and
the foreigners are allowed to govern
themselves. There are large colonies
of English, Americans, French and
Germans:
oThe prestige of Li Hung Chang has
greatly zune down of late, and the
coming mun of the empire is Chang
Chi Chung, viceroy of Nankin., He is
enthusiastic on the subject of organ-
izing w great army after the German
system, and when he accomplishes his
purpose he cou!d put himself at the
head of the empire without any
trouble.�T-"-Washington Post,
