Richmond anc Danvule railroad company. The

Iron property, and has ieen worked at various
ixiints. but chiefly at the site of the celebrated
Ye.luw Kidge Ore Bank, which has always yielded
an ure noted for Its richness In metallic iron, and
u softness and toughness. This vein of ore.
tic extends for two miles In length, has been
m.rked lo the depth of 147 feet, showing at that
di-mli ;i vein of ore about 4u ieet wiue, ana analyz
ing as high as 66 per cent, of metallic iron. This
vein has not been worked for twenty years, but the
facts set lorth can be fully shown. Various other
veins' have been worked, and within the past two
rears verv large deposits of iron ore have been dis
covered at other points. Within the past eighteen
months, however, the owners have discovered de
posits of ore in Crowder's Mountain, (five veins of
iron ore. are exposed) , which were unknown be
fore, and which will furnish an amount of good
ore. easily worked and above water, that must

eight feet wide, which erops out at various points
torn the U)D to the bottom of the mountain, show
ing In one place about 20 feet of solid vein. This
win can be traced over the top of the mountain for
in a mile, and this deposit alone would afford an
Lmost inexhaustible supply of ore. easily worked.

Correspondence of Tsb Observer.
Salem, N. C, June 16. We had
rain here every day during the past
week, some of the showers being
very heavy ones. There never was
a better season for "setting out"
tobacco plants, and the raisers of
the weed have not neglected it. One
old tobacco planter informed me that
a larger crop will be put out tnis year
than ever before.
Yesterday (Sunday) wa3 an unusu
ally chilly day for Juno. Early in
the morning thermometers were
down below 50 degrees ; fires were
resorted to to make one comfortable
indoors, and those .who had much
business; outdoors found ? winter
clothing to be more comfortable than
clothing, adapted to the summer? p&a

A man representing himself to be
Dr. Qeo, Jones and owning a valuable
farm between Elkm and Wilkesboro,
recently called on Mr. U. C, Lamb,
living in Salem, and stated that he
was hunting for some one to tase
eharee of his farm and attend to it
for mm while he practiced medicine.
His offers seemed sdiatr toJIr. Lamb
that he told Dr. Geo. Jones that he
would consider the matter and" let
him know in a few days. So eager
was the Dr. for Lamb's services that
he wanted him to pack up and go
with him next day. offering to give
employment to nis wnole iamilyi tne
wages tor wnicn would amount to
ninety dollars per month. Mr, I iamb
told nxmthat he could not go just
then, but would let him know m a day
or two. Dr. Jones tnen took;, nis ide
parture, but in a day or two 1 he
turned up at Mr. Lamb s house during
his absence and told Mrs. Lamb that
he had been doing some practice at
the house of a Mr. j?eeson, miller at
the Salem Mill, and that Mr. Beeson
wanted to rav him. but he had no
small bills pf money with which to
change a large- bill . for Mr. Beeson,.
and asked her to loan him five dol
lars. Mrs.' Lamb, whose confidence
hfthad won bv his fair offe I to her
huspandjlet him have fiy? dollars
which shfe -fras keening far j; hfr sJnl
Jones left, telling Mrs. Lamb that lie
wouio; return, tne money as soon as
he could go to Beeson's and return.
That was the last seen of Dr. Geo.
Jones. Ha never went to Mr. Bee
son's, but had played his confidence
game on mrs. iamD vana- BKippea
Mr. Ijajnbsafysthat hehiadeinquiTleff'
of several persons from Elkin and
Wilksboro concerning Dr. Jones, but
none of them ever knew of his living
at either--of those places. He also
wrote to a party living in Elkin, but
the answer to his letter stated, that
no Dr, Geo. Jones ever" owned farm
or lived in that neighborhood. When
Dr. Geo. J6nes calls on other persons
pretending to want to hire them to
take charge of his fine farm between

AS A FAUT
A gentleman entering our
clothing, asked us, on picking up a certain suit, "What is the
price ot this?" Informing him to look at the price ticket he
said: "I bought the, same exact suit down town and paid
$18.00 for it.'V The price of our suit was $14.00, so it pays
to look around.
