Vim. Ranney, of the Ohio Central Coal
Company, has issued an order, and notices
will be posted at the mines of that company
along the Ohio Central road, tomorrow, to
the effect that the mines will be closed next
Wednesday, owing to the unsettled condi-
ton Of trade and the difficulty of securing
contracts for coal at the present rate OF
mining, except at serious loss.
The notice states that the mines
will not be opened till the mining
rate has been definitely established. The
Ohio Central Companys mines include all
in the valley, except those operated BY the
Sunday Creek Coal Company and W. P.
Rend. The Columbus and Hooking Coal

lieved Admiral Courbet with his fleet is near

The attack on Kelung was prompted BY
a desire to obtain possession Of the coal
mines which would prove useful to the
French in case war was declared and
neutral ports rlosed. The Chinese frustrated
this scheme by flooding the mines and de-
stroying pumping machinery.

elusive. A young law student in
Berkshire and Sturgiss' law office
of this place has, by dint of persua-
sion, succeeded in getting one Gabriel Hol-
land, negro barber here, to apply for ad-
mission to the University. Chairman
Berkeley informed him, as his application
was the first that had been made by his
race and color for admission to the school,
he would refer it to the Faculty, As the
negro could not pass an examination and
is excluded from the school by the constitu-
ton of our State, it is presumed that the
young student is either seeking political
capital or to annoy the Faculty.
The University opens up far better than
was anticipated. The attendance exceeds
that at the opening of last year, and they
continue to arrive. The friends of the
school ard greatly pleased at the prospect,
as so many dark forbodings have been ex-
pressed and sent abroad over the State by
the enemies of the school.

and all who knew her admired and respect
ed her good qualities.
All went well until the young wife be.
came Jealous of the attentions paid by her
husband to one of his patients. Since then
she has brooded upon the subject and re.
peatedly asked her husband not to attend
the object OF her jealousy. To this he pai1
no attention further than stating that he
must not neglect his professional duties

ly after she went to get drink OF water
and coming back said to him: 81 have taken

in earnest, and approaching closer dlscov-

no evidence of detection We have, unfor-

we will have difficulty in carrying the State.
We have never carried it in any Presiden-

carried it twice in succession for twenty
years until the last two years. This fact
gives me hope that the gain is permanent.
