Mineral Deposits. Gaflfney, Special.?In the course of an interview with Dr. 0. F. Lee the eminent geologist and mineralogist who is making a geological and min eralogical survey of this county the following facts were given. Cherokee couuty has more mineral deposits of larger and more varied kind than any other county in the Union. Its iron deposits ar? aboilt fourteen miles in length and about 12 miles in width and 15 to 400 feet deep, comprising about 700,000,000 tons consisting of i the following grades of irpn. Silicate j of iron about 07) per cent., brown [ hemalite iron about 80 per cent, spec ular hematite iron about 1)3 pel* cent.; magnetic iron about 92 per cent., ' liminite iron about 05 per cent. Man * . ? i ? | ganese ho estimates at several million (tons; bog or wad manganese is found i in immense deposits covering a radium of 16 miles in length comprising mil lions of tons from 0 to 40 per cent, of binoxide manganese. There is a veift, of graphite extending from drover, N. C., through Blacksburg to Gaffnev and nine miles beyond to the south west containing 10 per cent pure ear bon from analysis of various eminent chemists made especially for I)r. Lee which is very gratifying to know from a commercial -ctandpdint. Largest Ginnory East of-Texas. dreenwood, Special.?The high wa ter mark in the ginning record qf the Greenwood N oil millf> ginnery' was reached here Friday When there were ginned and packed lGS bales of cotton in one day. Tho ginnery here since the burning of the gitHiery of the People's oil mi^^UAnderson is the largest east ofriver. The Anderson the same size. Since itwa^MQBj the one here has no rival outside of Texas in size. .The 16 gins turn out cotton in a jiffy. CapL F. S. Evans manager for this district of the Southern Cation Oil company says he ?believes this ginnery will gin ehve around 7,000 bales of cotton this yea* Last year the total crop of this coun ty was a little over 27,000 bales. This was a short crop but if this ginnery gets 7,000 this year it. will be about one fourth of the entire crop of the country. Nearly 3,000 bales have been ginned to date. ^ Revenue Districts Are to be Merged. Columbia, Speeial.-r-As 'announced in n special from Washington some lime ago, the revenue district of Goor ,Tia will he merged into tho South Car olina ? district with headquarters in Columbia under the charge of Mnj. Micah Jenkins the collector of intei' nal revenue. This action is ta&en by the revenue authorities according to Capt. Johi^ G. Capers tho acting commissioner of internal revenue be cause of the prohibition law~which will go into effect in<> January and which will cut down the revenues of that State from about $tf00,000 to $35,000 approximately. The action of the revenue authorities is impor tant in that it probably means the employment of additional clerical force in Columbia and the fact thht the national banks *in this eitv will receive deposits heretofore going to the national banks of Georgia.

Anderson, Special.r-Judge Hydrick has ordered a special term of the gen eral sessions court to convene her? on Monday* October 21, at which time the grand jury is cxpec.ted to make some presentment concerning the es cape of Allen Emerson from the county jail. It was at the request of the grand jury that'Judge Hydrick issued the order for the spcciul term of court. Detectives from several agencies have been in Anderson looking into the jail delivery and one of tittup was allowed to appear before the grand jury. Headers aro familiar with the kill ing of Thomas F. Drake by Emerson in Augusl, 1905. It will be remem bered that Mr.- Drake walked into his daughter's room and there found her in a compromising position with Em* erson. Shootihg commenced and Drake fell dead. Emerson came to the citwtnd gave himself up. lie was at one time deputy sheriff and at the time of the shooting was a chaingang guard. His trial soon followed and lie was found guilty of murder hut was recommended to the mercy of the court. - llis sentence was life impris onment. His attorneys, ready and willing to do anything for the unfortunate man carried the ense to the supreme court. It was only about one week or pos sibly ten days before the supcrcmc court affirmed the decision of the low er court that Emerson succeeded in securing his freedom, lie left during the night time and his whereabouts have l>een o mystery ever sinoo. * Almost every mail train arriving in Anderson since the jail delivery of Allen Emerson has brought quantities of letters and inquiries to Sheriff' ?Green'8 office. A drty scarcely passes that the sheriff does not rocoivo nu merous telegrams. And the funny part abou.t the whoie^alfair is that every communication whether it he a letter or a telegram, announces the fact that Allen Emerson wanted in Andersyn to serve a life senteuee for the murder of Thomas F. Drake has been captured. He. has been "cap tured" every day in the week, almost in Florida, Tennessee, North. Carolina and other States, and some time he is "captured" in two States on the same day. Sheriff Green in as anxious as any body to cApturo Allen Emerson. He investigates every bit of information that comes to his office but the tele grams aro getting to come so often and all "collect" that he is*begin ning to feel the burden. The tele grams are not "boiled'! down, eithei The senders evidently think that they should put a lot in a telegram to im press upon the sheriff that they really have the escaped prisoner. A couple of days ago the sheriff received a tehtfgram from a man in Ducktown, Tenn.,saying that he knew positively tha( he had Emerson. The sheriff can not afford to send a depu ty everywhere to follow up wHd goose chases, so he always hesitates to investigate. The m^an at the other end of the line kept on persisting by telephone, by wire and by mail. Fi nally Sheriff Green sent Deputy Sheriff Scott to Ducktown to see the captured man. He returned to An derson emptvhauded. When Mr. Scott arrived in the small mining town of Ducktown he was led to a hotel where four men wore sitting around guarding a man who meekly submitted to being placed at the best hotel for safekeeping for a few days. At first glance Mr. Scott saw that the wrong man had been captured, so the fellow waa given his freedom. Before going, however, ha demanded of Deputy Scott a written statement saying that he had been arretsed, sus pected of being Allen Emerson and turned loose. His likeness was so much like Emerson's that he was afraid he would again be taken for him. The people here are^.'divided in opinion as to EmeVson'* whereabout* Some think that he has skipped to another country. Others believe that ho is in a neighboring State, while the majority of the people believe that Allen Emerson is* in Anderson^ county right now. u. About three Weeks ago the Ander son Intelligencer inserted a parr graph in the "squib" column saving that if Emcftiotk would furnish them his address th?" paper would bo sent him for one year free of charge. A man using, the name of Emerson an swered fi*%i Texas. The paper was flnty ?ent and in a few days The Daily Mail received a letter from tlie Texas man saving that be bad rcceiv* ed The Intelligencer and that he was sailing for Constantinople via London He also sept his "low" to all in quiring friends.

Columbia, Special.?Mr. T. Gilbert Pearson (lie secretary of the National Audubon society was in the city n few days agb in consultation with Mr. ft. F. Taylor who 1h president of the South Carolina branch. Mr. I'ear* son has gone over with the nieiubers of the society in this Stute (he law passed at the laht sesbion of the gen eral assembly and as the game season is now on in a number of counties, it is advisable and atmoHt necessary that the pubic he informed as to the requirements. The. section relating to the hunting of deer saytf: , "It Is unlawful to hunt or kill deer between the 1st of January and the let of September except in the coun ties of Clarendon, Colleton, Marlboro, Kershaw, llorr.v, Hampton, Darling ton, Marion, .Beaufort, Florence, Charleston, Dorchester and Bcrkfey wherein it shall he Unlawful between the 1st of February and the 1st of August. For violation party to be hoed not less than $10 nor more than if'io or by imprisonment not Icsh than 10 nor more than 25 days. '*lt is unlawful to have in posses sion any fresh deer skin or meat Ik* twocn above doles," ^ "Clone Season" for Birds. The law then requires that any per son desiring to hunt certain game birds for scientific purposes shall sc enic from the secretary of State a certificate, for which a fee shall'be paid. /* / v. The hunting of quail and Wild tur keys and such game has been general ly misunderstood by the sportsmen of Kichland because of an impression that in Lexington county the "close season 7 ends Oct. 15. This is a mis take. That section of the act of tho last general assembly says: "It shall be unlawful to hunt any wild turkey, quail, ftartridgc, wood cock, Mongolian or othet^-pheasant, between the lirst day of March and the fifteenth day of November, except in the following .counties where it shall be unlawful to hunt them be tween the first day of April and tho first day of November: Beaufort, Hampton,, Dorchester, Colleton, Chai Icston, Barnwell, , Berkeley, Aiken, Oconee, Lexington, Fairfield, Saluda, Georgetown and Clarendon, or to sell or expo*.:? t?r sale, ship or exnprt for s^ite, to pofhunt, net trap, or by fire light to catch, kill, iujure or pursue with such, intent any of the birds named in this section nor shall any person destroy or rob the nests of such birds. For violation on convic tion they shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be fined not more than $20, or bo imprisoned not more than 30 days. Nothing in this act shall prevent the importation for sale of any of the said birds. * TKi having in possession of any of the said birds sold or exposed for sale or shipped shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of this act and the bur den to show that they were imported from another State or Territory. The South Carolina society hn? had printed a number of certificates which aro sent out to the clerks of court to be issued to non-resident hunters during the game season of this year The law requires that a license of $10 be paid to tho clcrk -of court in which the hunting takes place and does not give tho hunter the right to trespass upon any private property. A stub, to be kept by the clerk of court requires that an itemized state ment be turned into the Audubon so ciety and a blank on the license gives Ihe description of the license includ ing height, color of hair, weight and ' eolor of eyes. The license is revoc able by the society at any time.. The counties in the State of North Carolina "last year received $10,000 in fees from the operation of this li- J f-ense clause. Mr. B. F. Taylor, presi dent of tho Audubon society of South Carolina hae been to a great deal of ?xpense to get the people informed of ?he workings of the Audubon law, but be expect* to get it all back when li cense fees begin to come in and in addition will have a surplus for next year. The game law of South Carolina ioclnres all birds to be the property ?f the State. It is then declared un lawful to kill any birds. There are I hen certain exceptions named and these exceptions are "game'? birds, lo distinguish thern from birds of plu mage and song. The particular function of the Au dubon Mociety is to protect aong and plumage birds. But* the gamo bird# also need protection during the breed-' infc season. Therefore is it made uii-j lawful to kill even game birds betwen March and Nov. ? 15. There arc 14 counties however in which hunt ing of game' birds is permitted untily April i and the hunting season opens Nov. 1, instead of the 15th a? in the other 2Z counties. s . ? >., The licenfle* to be issued ^lo non residents require ,a complete descrip tion of the holder thereof ro that he may not transfer.
