C. and who has had experience in the coal mine business is forming the company. He feels confident that the coal at Walnut Cove is as good as at Pocahontas and other points in West Virginia and thinks that it will be necessary to go down some distance to ob tain the best results. Th€j Rep ublican would like to see these mines thoroughly investigated. Their existence has been known for years and they have been ex amined and even worked along the surface and nothing but a systematic and well directed effort will ever prove the worth or worthlessness of the surface evidense of coal deposits. Mr, Payne expresses confidence of satisfactory results. I r b Wilkeslwre issntir. A peculiar incident happened in Mulberry township one night last week, when the grave of one of the landmark citizens of that section who was a fpllower of General George Washington in the Revolutionary—was opened; and it is thought that a large a- mount of coins were taken out that had been hidden there about one-hundred years ago. The grave was that of the great grand father, John Harrold of Mr. H, E. Harrold of Haymeadovv whic i is situated on the fa^m of James Brown who purchased the farm from the Harrolds some time ago. It has long been a story in the aeighborhood that the savings of the pioneer settler had been hidd en by his widow in the grave but »o one had ventured to investi gate. The parties who opened the grave did so secretly and are not known. The only positive evi dence is the plain imprint of a pot and the Hd upori the earth. The amount of the coins has usually beea estimated at more than ^00. WHkas.

The variety is an old one which he has for years improved. The specimen-is on exhibition at our oifice.

It is evident that the tradiiig ships of other nations will use the waterway to a much ^eater than will the peo ple of this country. How can it be otherwise? Our ships, owing to the tariff and the high price of labor, cost 50 per cent more than the ships of any other oountry. Our sailors cost twice as much as those of a,ny Europe an country an d five times as much as the wonderfully season ed and competent sailors of Japan and China.
