MINERAL LAND.

l offer for sale POI acres of Coal and
Iron Land, situated in the Catawba val
ley of Virginia, eleven miles from Roam
oke. The outlook for great develop
ments on this property is splendid. The
ore is a vein of soft brown hemat;te 32
feet wide and assaying 80 per cent, me-
tallic iron. And the coal prospects are
finc-two shafts having been sunk, one
20 and the other 25 feet through solid
coal slate. The property also contains
mineral spring, which the analysis of
Lehman & Magcr proved to possess re-
markable curative powers for all kidney
troubles, especially for diabetes. The
enormous Quantity Of coal and ore that
will be required foi the large number of
furnaces and other industrial plants in
course of construction in Southwest Nir-
ginia will greatly increase the already.
large demand for these minerals, and
consequently enhance the value of such
property. Two railroads have been sur
vcycd near the property, one of whichN
the Roanoke and Craig railroad, and the
other, the Virginia Western railroad,
will afford valuable connections. Fuller

Exnort Duty ON Frozen Eish.

GLOUCESTER, Mass, Oct. "A letter
from st. Johns, N. F., from Hon James
Fox, member of the executive council
of that colony, states that the duty
placed by the American government of
I of cent per pound on frozen fish
would not, so far as Newfoundland was
concerned, aid the American fishermen,
as the government intends putting an
export duty of cents per pound on
frozen or fresh fish exported in foreign
bottoms. This law would prohibit the
bringing here of large quantities of
frozen herring by Gloucester vessels.

AT THE ELEVENTH HOUR.

The Conference Report on the Fort Ram
dali and sisseten Military Reservations
Finally Adopted.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The conference
report on the Fort Randall and Sisseton
military reservations of South Dakota
was finally adopted by both houses.
1t provides for the opening up of $4,000
acres embraced in the Randall reserva-
ton to settlement and for the .cession to
the state of 5000 acres Of the Sisseton
reservation. Objection was made to the
latter provision because the settlers
wanted the lands opened to homestead
entry. but as there are not enough lands
in the state to give it the 100000 acres
granted in the enabling act, it was con-
sidered about the only way out of the
difficulty to allow the Sisseton reserva-
ton to apply. The land will be sold for
$40 an acre.

Sharp County record., 1890-02-27

How to tell whether a person Is
dead or alive: Apply the flame of a
candle to the tip of one of the great
toes of the supposed corpse and a
blister will Immediately rise. If the
vitality is gone, this will be full Of
sir and will burst with some noise if
the flame is applied to it a few Sec
onds longer; if life is not extinct the
blister will be full of matter and
will not burst. The public will
doubtless be glad to know Of a SIM
pie test which can be used even
whore there is no reasonable doubt,
and thus free the mind from future
misgiving as to whether or not a
friend or relative might not after
all, have had some life when the
body was treated as a corpse.
Though very few are actually buri-
ed alive, many more may abandoned
as dead while life is still in them,
and then die from being handled
and exposed as corpses are. The
test, therefore, should be applied as
soon as life is supposed to be extinct
and before an undertaken is CALI
ed in.

That Band Stand.

The attention of the town and al
iacent community is called to the
fact that John S. Medley proposes
to give the lumber to build the
band stand mentioned in the RECORD
in the issue of the 18th. Now, but
yery little needs to be done, that of
donating a few dollars to have the
work put up. Some body start it at
once. Such a structure near the
spring would be an ornament to the
town. Mr.. Medley don't live in the
town and has no property here, and
If he can give the lumber it seems
that the citizens here ought to build
the thing.
John Metcalf proposes to give the
nails to cover it.
Let us hear from some body else.
You all love music, and love to look
at handsome lot of boys in uni
form. A-hem! Girls, pass the hat
Speaking of the soothing inhn-
ences of music and its enobllng ef-
fects on humanity, we ask you to
carefully read the following which
fits right in below;
Did music exert a pernicious inAu-
ence, it would long since have been
tabooed, or classed among those
vices that honest men are taught to
shun. But, on the contrary, even
the most bIgoted and narrow mind
ed clerical, invokes her and blesses
her power, while doctors and educa>
tors are loud in their advocacy of
music as moral influence. Church>
es may differ in doctrine, Agnostcs
may doubt existence of facts, infdels
rall against religion, learned doctors
quarrel as to the origin of the spe>
cles, politicians hurl anathemas one
against the other, or spectators
swindle the to confding, but one
breath of music and the better quail
tiles of man assert themselves, and
differences are qnelled as if by mag
ic. Music is potent and is the one
touch of nature that makes the whole
world akin. Is there any art that
can compare with music in that far
reaching power, that releases the
spirits of mankind from their inner
bondage Of sel6ShneSs, Indifference
or sensuality, and brings them out
into the sunlight of art to be refresh
ed, terminated with the warm inhu,
ence of a purer atmosphere? We
thlnk not. All other arts are individ-
ual in effect, and do not appea! to
the mass of men as does music. For
this reason, therefore is music worth
of the foremost place in the af-
lection of all mankind.
