Jackson Tribune and SUM-.
A terrible accident occurred on the
farm of Mr.. Thomas Conner, in the
Seventh district of this county, last
Monday, the 18th ult. Mr.. Conner
had some hands at work in a field near
the public road burning brush, among
whom was a negro woman named Fan
ME McElwce. This woman attempted
to carry fire from one brush pile for
the purpose Of igniting another, and
the wind being very high her clothing
caught from the fire she carried and
in an instant her person was wrapped
10 flames. Her lower limbs and breast
wer5 burned to a crisp and her face
was also badly burned before assist
ance from those at work in the field
could reach her. The unfortunate
woman died in a few hours from the
effects OF her burns.

In this latitude the sun goes down at
night and we retire to our couchcs and
sleep. In the morning the sun returns
and we arise to the pursuit of our various
daily avocations. But III the Artic re-
gion in the spring the sun never sets.
There is no morning and no night. 1t is
one continuous day for months. At first
it seems very difficult to understand this
strange thing Of nature One never knows
when to sleep. The world seems to be
entirely wrong and man grows nervous
and restless. Sleep is driven from his
very eyelids, his appetite fails and all the
disagreeable results of protracted vigils
are apparent. But gradually he becomes
used to this state Of affairs, deyiSes
means to darken his tent and once more
enjoys his hours of rest. In fact, he
learns how to take advantage Of this new
arrangement, and when travelling pursues
his journey by night, or when the sun is
lowest, because then he finds the frost
hardens the snow a great assistance in
sledging.

A LESSON IN CIvILITY.-Mr. Harding,
of Philadelphia, has been guest at the
Catskill Mountain house for several sea-
sons. He always had the best in the
house and paid we'll for it. One day last
summer his little daughter, who was sick
wanted some chicken broth, and Mr..
Harding requested The proprietor of the
Catskill Mountain house to prepare it.
''If you want so much waiting on" was
the reply, "you had better buy some land
and build hotel yourself" Mr.. Hard
ing said: ''Well, 1 declare, 1 never
thought of that before l believe I will
act upon your suggestion" Harding
left the Catskill Mountain house soon af-
ter this incident and Immediately went to
work to erect uew house. The result
is the Kaaterskill house, situated a short
distance from the Catskill Mountain
house, which contains $40 rooms.

Ice Hot ENOUGH TO SCORCH WATER.
If we remove the air and vapor from
the region surrounding piece of ice and
take measures to absorb the fresh va
por with sufficient rapidity, the ice will
never melt, even If we apply ever so
strong degree Of heat to it. This, in
credible as it appears, is really the case,
for numerous experiments made by diff
ferent chemists have conclusively demon
strated the infusibilty of ice in vacu-
um. 1t is also extremely probable that
the ice actually gets hot-so hot, indeed
as to scorch paper in contact with it
but this is not so fully proven.

America or any other country, and what l say of
this can prove, This Syrup, like the Pills. is
harmless and safe. 1t contains no opium or other
narcotic poison like the most Syrup and is not dis.
agreeable to take. Any child will take it. And it
will cure any and all inflammations arising from
Cold. 1t s.superior to all others in every respect
and especially for the following reasons:
1st. 1t will cure Group every time.

SINGING SAND.-Dr. LEM, the traveller,
reports having found singing sand in the
Sahara. At certain times he heard low
murmurings and plaintive sounds in the
sandhills of the desert. These sounds
would increase and decrease in intensity
and cease at last. He explains the phe-
nomenon by differences in the tempera-
ture causing the loose grains of sand to
hit against one another and make the air
reverberate. Travellers often reported
having fancied hearing a tolling of dis
tant bells by the side of such sandhills,
similar to the sounds produced by waves
of q river or waterfall.

can be had in violation of law. This
fact would be tortured into an argu-
ment to prove that prohibition is a
failure. When prohibition has
been thoroughly tried and tailed &c
dry up illicit selling, then there
would be room for this claim. 1t is
wrong to condemn an unentorced
law; nay more, it is unjust if not
wicked.
Twenty years from now the say

The ''Sang Diggers."

The "Sang Diggers" have at
least champion in the Neeos Letter.
1t says:
1t is usual for some conceited city
folks to sneer at that large class of
West Virginia's population called
"sang diggers, as though the occu-
patton of gathering and marketing
the ginseng root was every small
potatoes" compared with other
pursuits. And yet the humble
"sang" gatherer fills an important
place in the commerce of the world
and the occupation is an honest
one, and as legitimate and respecta-
BILE as any other. The sturdy yeo-
many Of West Virginia who gather
"sang" for a livelihood are better
citizens, and perform far more val
liable part in the worlds busy
throng, than the brainless tops
who sneer at them. The ginseng
root is highly valuable as a medi-
cine among the Chinese. The
trade in the article in the United
States amounts to over 81, 100000 a
wear.

Good for Randolph and Good for

AS TO LICENSE.

The County Court has departed
from the track laid out scores OF
years ago by the primitive fathers
in Randolph county, in regard TO
the unlimited sale of Intoxicating
liquors, and declared that no license
shall issue for the ensuing year
Their action was taken after due
consideration and no one presumes
to doubt that it was done for the
best interests of our county, and so
it will prove if the law is enforced;
Here now rests the burden. II
Thomas, Richard and Henry and
the balance of the boys are allowed
to distribute whisky promiscuously
and without restraint, we Will soon
have condition of things actually
worse than if license had been
granted.
In the first place much depends
on the Grand Jury. If the sheriff
summons a jury of liquor-dealers
and sympathizers, few indictments
will be made. They will have no
particular desire to extort from an
unwilling witness, facts that will
eliminate themselves and their
friends. Then let the Sheriff see to
it that he gets law-abiding citizens
on the grand Jury.
Again: allowing that the right
kind of Grand Jury is impannel-
led, such a Jury is worthless if the
Prosecuting Attorney is direlict in
his duty. If he fails to promptly
prosecute every violation of law
which comes to his knowledge, and
instead tries to shield the criminal,
of course nothing can be hoped for,
in the way Of reform.
In the third place, if the citizens,
who are interested in the good Or
der Of society fail to give the neces-
sary information to the Prosecuting
Attorney, he must necessarily fall
short in the performance Of his du-
ty. He is neither all-wise nor
omni-present, and if you wish
the laws enforced you must
put aside that foolish and ridicu-
lous idea that it is dishonorable to
report violation of law. The dis
honorableness comes in when you
attempt to shield the man who re-
fuses to obey the law.
But we anticipate much good will
result from this years experiment.
We have officials who intend to do
their duty, let the cost be what it
will, and we here and now warn ev-
cry man who contemplates the sale
Of whisky on the sly, that he is pre-
pairing to get into the worst kind of
trouble. The men who are manag-
ing the county affairs mean to en-
force the laws as far as they can, re-
CARELESS of fear or favor. Now those
who think we know nothing about
it are welcome to test the matter.
