We have mil lions of tons of it, and analjzation has shown it to be the very best. Weil, we’ll carry samples of ochre and then several barrels of it for the use of paint factories. “In cities where there are factories of thia kind, I go to the presidents and tell them of the car and the ochie samples. He sees them, makes a test, and knows at once its value. I ask him how much he can use and at what price. He replies that if we can come up to sample he can take so many hundred tons a month at say s2o*or S3O a -ton. There is not the slightest doubt about the quality or quan tity of the stuff, and when I return I have orders for tons upon tons of it. Then I show these to a capitalist, show him the ochre, and he closes the contract, buys u p ochre properties and starts facto ries. Paint factories will follow, and the development continues. This is not chimerical. I knofvthe value of the ochre and simply make a plain business propo sition. -< “Again, these counties are rich in Jbauxite. With the exception of a little | in Alabama, thia state and Arkansas con tain the only bauxite in the union, and ours is infinitely better than Arkansas, ’ not containing so much silica. Out of ® this we get aluminum, the coming metal. Cave Spring is a 1 ton, t. o. b. there. The new York price* is $lO a ton. Our car will touch alumi- ' num factories at Syracuse, Willmington 1 and other points. We will give tht-n^ 1 1 samples,ani let them see the qua.ity for themselves. There is no doubt about 1 the result, and we will bring back orders ’ for 10,000 tons in my opinion. These we will turnover to a capitalist, who will 1 have no trouble in making the contracts ' or filling them. “You see this is the best part of the business, I want to develop and get or ders for raw material that is valuable, but not known to the world. We will show it in a practical business way. “ Then the clays here are of better quality than I know of anywhere. Tests have been made showing them to make the very best fine brick. In a Bessemer furnace at Pittsburg they held out long er than any others. The Illinois Brick Works at Chicago has already become so interested that they want a car load, which Mr. Clark will send them. The furnaces in the south are paying from $25 to $35 a ton for fire brick, when we can make better out of our own clay. The supply is simply inexhaustible. We will carry samples of the Borne Brick Co., to show what sort of brick are be ing made and show the possibilities. We will show the clays to the factories and practical good must be the result at once. “Then we have the best slate in the United States; our marble is fine and I might mention many other features. An other big thing is our iron and copper pyrites running high in sulphuric acid. The Standard Oil Co., uses a great deal in refining oil, and an effort will be made |Mo hMMßflßHß.tabiii.hed here.

Instances of Tricks the Brain Has Played On Mortals, It is said that souio 20 years ago a long . wooden box, resembling a plain pauper’s coffin, might be seen inside the north aisle of Westminster abbey. For two days it was passed without notice by the many people who visited the minster. 1 Then complaints were made to the police officer at the door that the smell arising from the body contained in the box was not only disagreeable to pass near it, but that it was a disgrace to allow it to re main there. A strong sense of duty, said one of the complainants, impelled him to draw attention to the scandal. The policeman at once called a verger, who found on inquiry that the box was empty and had never been used to con ceal a corpse. However, he had the box removed, and in this way prevented the recurrence of the horrid smells of which visitors to the abbey had complained. A still more curious case of the way in which the imagination may usurp the senses of smell and sight is recorded of a jßspital patient. Two Paris medical [men interested in this subject of freaks and delusions of the imagination told the patient that in order to cure him both his legs would need be amputated. The man was thunderstruck. Until that moment he had imagined himself to be I improving in health. I “Oh! good doctors,” he exclaimed in I accents of terror, “you have made some mistake. There is nothing wrong with me. If my legs are cut off, what will my poor wife and children do to get their daily “lam yg^o^^^^^flß^Rßdlow/\j | resnqpdgd one RRRRR depen into the <qMMfl theater, and there, without cld<W| the man, the doctors pretend- with tho amputation. said tho operator, with an as- BMKiedsigh of relief, “Ihftre’sonc leg off.” /.Kith, holy Virgin Mary, tho pain is ■Kitful! 1 am dying,” shrieked the pa- BHt. . „ KK'l‘ en 1110 operator hiu-rieuly “ainpu- HKd” the second leg.

Few more sti iking instances of the force of imagination have been given than that in which a German physician tried an experiment-oil 'three criminals condemnj4Bßd<?ath.

Then said the governor, looking at his watch: “Now, doctor, you may begin.” The physician solemnly poured into a nun an evil tastimr but harmless ltduid IHE ROME TIUHIINE. SUNDAY MOBNING NOVEMBER 13.

The man clinched his teeth and refused to drink the poison. “Kill me!” he cried. “Murder me in any way but this!” Before he could speak again the jailers seized him and forced the liquid down his throat. “Ho will be dead in two minutes,” whispered the doctor to the governor. The criminal heard the remark and gave a blood curdling shriek. When the doctor turned round, he saw that the man apparently fainted. He turned to the next criminal, who tremblingly awaited his fate. He clinched his teeth, recovered himself and met the doctor’s inquiry, “Are you ready?” with the “Yes” of a stoic. His arm was then pierced with a lancet, though no vein was opened. “You see how pale he has become,” said the doctor in the man’s hearing. “He is losing blood rapidly.” The phy sician went on describing the symptoms an& at length pronounced the words, “Now he's dying!” For a moment the prisoner shuddered violently. Then he became still. The doctor looked at the criminal, Isent his ear to the ma n's heart, and found thathe Knit Overshirts, worth in any market, sl.oo. Cheap at sl.

This unlookri for result, although it merely anticipated by a day the actual hanging of the criminal, at once caused the experiments to be suspended. By this time the first prisoner had recov ered, as though from a bad dream, but the third man was heard slowly mur muring the Lord’s Prayer ere he received the “poisonous” injection. He gave a mad cry of joy when he learned that his death would not occur until the morrow. Another remarkable but less deadly trick played by the imagination is often noted. Many people conceive an aver sion for some particular flower, perfume or color. One man, noted for this idio syncrasy, hated green colors. He had a notion—how it orignated no one can tell —that green was dangerous to him. Ac cordingly he was rarely able to go out into the country except at night.—Mil lion.
