Fine Marble Discovered in' Dallas It ts In Lmrge QaaatlUea and ffllx Qaar That Huntington county is in mineral deposits cannot now, be doubted.

It! is the 'j good tune of Democrat Jfco's be able to prove this in a manner that wiH surprise the peopled Two or three months ago there came to this city an old gentleman who has since been fre quently seen about the natural gas Nobody knew or. his" busi ness for some tim'nf 'i s' The gentleman's name is Drl Williams; of Brooklyn, N. KJ, a mineralogist and geologist of note. The object of his stay in JIuntington has at last been learned. He came here at the request of Mr.

George who in with H. Townsend, Lima, had planned his work; He has been prospecting for various minerals in this and has been successful in, his He has found that much of the stone that is crushed and used on the streets contains zinc but not In quantities sufficient to pay forjworking it upr'Some speci mens were sent away and analyzed but they did; hot show pdying quantities. nmii. xi xoanu owutur of 4he county deposits of leadr copper I and bismuth, but they were also in non paying amount. The bismuth' was found near Warren.

Dr. Williams was eminently success ful in another direction. It is claimed that marble is found wherever there is limestone. The doctor began his hunt for marble, confining his search to an era of about seven miles in the country west of Andrews. He did his work quietly, collecting specimens from various farms where promising stone cropped out above the surf ace of the ground.

These specimens were brought to the city and tested as to polish and it was found to the gratification of those in terested that the marble was very hard, of great strength and susceptible of a very high polish. Specimens of the marble were also sent to State Geologist Gorby and that official returned them with the decision that they were of an excellent quality, the word excellent being underlined. This, of course, settled all doubt as to the quality of the marble and steps were at once taken by Messrs. Bippus Townsend and Williams to obtain pos session of 'all the land upon which it was found. By.

proceeding in a cautious manner over 100 acres have been purchased at from $30 to $40 an acre. This is not all the land on which the marble was but what remains will likely fall into the company's hands. When it does then arrangements will be made for opening; the quarries at once 'and thus employment will be given to a large number of men. The marble discovered by Dr. Williams is of these various colors: White, red and white, brown, green and gray.

All the' pieces so far polished have been taken from off the surface and the fact that they polish highly is evidence that the quality will Improve as it is found deeper. Dr. Williams is the man who discovered the marble in Tennessee which has made that state so rich and the marble found in Huntington county is claimed to be as good, if not better, than the Tennessee stone. In a very short time the company to operate the marble quarries will be formed and. work commenced.

The immensft value of the discovery can be seen in the fact that the best Tennessee marble sells for $6 per cubic foot. County Treasurer Beard is' indisposed again. He came to the office this morning and returned home at once. The county board of review will continue in session for some days yet. Their proceedings will not be made public until their sessions have closed.

The report of the county assessor, Isaac E. Fisher, to the board, shows something which will be of interest to readers of Tke Democrat. Mr. Fisher went over the lists of the townships assessors carefully and, as a result of his figures, below is given a list of the principal classes of property found on the assessment sheet and, also the average valuation of each kind of property as taken by the town ship assessors and shown in their re ports. It will be seen that in some town ships, for instance, the average ment of agricultural implements to each individual is only about half of what the valuation of agricultural, im plements is to each person assessed in some other townships.

The average at which property is listed in each township is given, of the following kinds of property: agricultu ral implements, household goods, horses, cattle, sheep, wheat, corn and oats.
