Mr. Jerome has concluded from informa- tlon received from various sources that at the time of the explosion there was between 125 and 200 pounds of explosive ' in the dynamite house and in the morn ing theie bad been probably 000 pounds. - John B.

Although he seldom addresses the House when he gets np to speak Bepre sentstivs Charles Randolph Thomas, of the Third North Carolina district, not only "says thiags," bat talks to some purpose. This was demonstrated when the Urgent Deficiency bill was under consideration. His colleague, Mr. Small had offered an amendment appropria ting $12,500 to complete the marine bio logical station at Beaufort. N. C, and Mr. Cannon, In charge ot the bill, was opposed to the amendment "Uncle Joe" made a rather sharp fight against the appropriation, and at one time h looked very much as though the $18,600 would be knocked out. Audit was at this point that Mr. Thomas "got in his fine work." He had in the mean tIme,.however, put in a personal plea with his Democratic colleagues for the young fishes to be hatched at Beaufort, and when he addressed the House In sup port of the amendment he received the closest attention. He frankfy told the members that he was not only interested in the amendment In behalf of the cause of science, bat personally interested be cause the county in which the fine batch ery is located will become a part ot his dlstriot after the next general election, and this was refreshing. The Govern ment had, he said, appropriated money for a fish hatchery at Tupelo, Miss., the home of "Private" John . Allen, and a lobster hatchery on the coast of Maine, and why not complete the one already authorized at Beaufort? His plea for fish struck the hearts of all trne anglers, with the result that the amendment was carried by a margin of four votes. It was Mr Thomas' short talk that saved the day, and the fish In the Beaufort laboratory will sing his praises. Kiss Stone Not Tet Released. Washington, Jan. 28 The State De partment today received a dispatch from the United States representatives in Turkey regarding I he case of Miss Ellen II.

GREAT DEVELOPMENT J la Florence. The Splendid Shoring of the Banner And Ozark las Stimulated All Other Klnlng Enterprises, North. Idaho Star. J. N. Taylor, United States Mineral Surveyor, has just coma down from Florence and reports great activity la the camp and that there la mora devel opment going on at the present time than there has ever been before In cen tral Idaho. "The Banner" said Mr. Taylor "la working sixty men in getting their mine ready to start as soon as their hundred ton mill they are patting In Is completed This property has developed Into a great mine, I believe the largest free milling gold mine la the Northwest. They have twenty-seven feet of $14.00 ore in one drift, and twenty-three feet of $66.00 ore In another drift. This property was bought by a New York syndicate composed of. Henry Clews, Arbnckle Bros., and others a short time sgo for two hundred thousand dollars, and the value of the property! today Is hard to estimate as tbey have a million dollars worth of ore blocked out "The Ozark mine lying north of the Banner Is also drifting on a twenty-four foot ledge on the 100 foot level, and there is no question but what It will de velop Into a great mine, as It has the richest ore in the camp and has a greater showing as far as developed than the Banner. Thev expect to get the mill now on the property started by the first ot March and add stamps enough as soon as the roads will permit in the spring to make their capacity 100 tons per day, and with those two big mines with others that are getting ready to start, the people ot Florence look for a great boom in the spring. The town of Florence is full of mining men looking for bonds on property where the owners are not able to do the necessary develop ment work to put the property on a pay log basis but as usual the prospectors' idea since the development of the Ban ner and Ozark is such that they are hard to deal with in the way ot price, bat the people looking for the property have made liberal offers since the Banner and Ozark started, and I am satisfied will pick up most of the best properties be tween now and spring."

Norfolk, Jan. 29 Fifteen hundred cases or 75,000 pounds of dynamite are a part of the cargo in the hold of the Norwegian steamship Daggery that is ashore near Gulf Shoals life station, on the North Carolina coast.

Since the law went Into effect requiring charters of corpora tions to be filed In the office of the Secre tary of State 1800 have been filed. The new corporation law is found to bear better results than the old one, as under It all charters are granted directly by the State. It contains the best features of the New Jersey law and is In such favor that a number of companies formed in other States will obtain North Carolina charters. Th4s month fifty-five charters have been .granted. Among the charters granted today was one to the Southern Handle company of Burlington, capital $50,000. It will make handles ot all kinds, ss well as trolley poles, bobbins, spools and brooms Another charter was grsnted to the Ral eigh Leaf Tobacco company, with over 100 stockholders snd with $50,000 capi tal stock, of which $8500 is paid up.

The police ssy the story is untrue and add that there have been no burglaries since lsst Sunday night. A halt dozen or more counties are writing letters to the State Superintend ent of public instruction, saying that unless they get aid from the State at once their schools must close. The Superintendent tells them to keep the Ibhools open; that $100,000 Is appro priated for this purpose and that if the county demands exceed this sum, which now seems probable, there will be a pro rata apportionment which will be ample to nay the teachers until the matter Is disposed ot. a The weather report for North Carol! na for December, Issued today says the mean temperature was sua aegrees, which is 2,7 below the normal.
