OUR MINERAL RESOURCES. Some Interesting Facts About the Output of Georgia’s Mines. The assistant state geologist of Georgia has prepared a paper in which he states that the total amount of brown iron ore pro¬ duced last year aggregated more than 400,000 tons; the output of red iron ore was not so great, but the output can be increased to meet any demand. Three coal mines are being operated in the j state, total daily output about 14,000 tons. Ochre deposit found -at a number of points yielded nearly 4,000 tons last year. The output of bauxite has va¬ ried from 1,000 to 7,000 tons. Corundum mines are being worked in the northeastern part of the state. Asbestos is also found in that section. There are valuable marble de¬ posits and a number of quarries are being worked. The granites of the state constitute its most MILLINERY o My Millinery opening this week was a decided success m every way, and many were the com- pliments made upon the superb showing of all the latest designs in pall atyd U/ipter /Tjillipery.

Bainbridge, Oct. 5.—This morn¬ ing as the workmen on the Geor¬ gia, Florida and Alabama railway bridge were starting to work they noticed the feet of a horse stick¬ ing above the water that had lodged against the piling. They fastened a rope to the horse to loosen it so it could float away. As the horse came to the surface they noticed that it was hitched to a buggy. The horse and buggy were pulled to the shore and an investigation started to find to whcm it belonged. It was found that the out- fit was one that was used by a man named Sword, who, with an¬ other man named J. W. Furguson, was working for the Eureka Medi- Co., of Chattanooga, Tenn. xiiey were both in town yesterday, About eight o’clock last night Sword went to the livery stable an( j had his horse hitched up and started out of town. He was ap¬ parently drinking very heavily at the time, according to the report of several persons who saw and { noticed him. The supposition is that he was very drunk and drove straight from the public square down Water street to the river and drove in. The place where he drove in is very steep and a horse would have required considerable urging to go down into the water. It is supposed that Sword was drowned and search will be made for his body. Some parties who saw him in a saloon before he left say that he had a considerable roll of money, probably three or four hundred dollars. Mr. J. W. Furguson, his partner, went to the livery stable this morning and got his horse and buggy and left for Brinson before the news spread of finding the drowned horse. He left some papers with the livery man to de¬ liver to Sword,who, he said,would be back today. Both men are said to be from Terrell county.

IE TsT* BURT MARTIN IS A WOHAN. The Discovery Is Made by Physicians of a Nebraska Penitentiary. Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 8 .—For eleven months the officials at the Nebraska state penitentiary have supposed that a prisoner known as Burt Martin was a man.
