We hope to have a new road fro mthe public road to the church this 1 fweek, or at least some changes made in the old road. Best way for the folks to find out how the change is will be to travel over it next Sunday, as it will be Children’s day, and see hom much beter it is. All will be welcome.

The latest discovery in the coal fields in the region of Gulf is the find ing of hard coal. Os course everyone nr that section is excited over this find. A test hole had been driven on the 1 Phillips place near Gulf and at a i good depth, five feet of coal of excel- I lent quality and hardness was struck. , A large crowd from the entire field soon gathered but the engineer in charge allowed only officials of the 1 surrounding mines to enter the open ing. Each visitor was allowed to take away a piece of hard coal as a souve nir. In the bank of Gulf is exhibited a very large lump given the cashier by C. H. Gunter, engineer in charge ot the work. In an interview Mr. Gun ter stated that the present work would stop, as such had been made merely ! as a test. 1 Officials of the Cumnock and Caro- I lina mines were loud in their congrat- j ulations and pronounced the seam of I coal superior to anything yet found in ! the vicinity.

The trustees of Davidson College , are making an effort to secure $600,- 000 for tfie rebuilding of Chambers Hall, which was destroyed by fire, and for other purposes looking to the en largement of Davidson’s equipment.
