THE MINERAL EXHIBIT.

1t is the desire of the managers OF
the fair at Lynchburg to have an eS
hibit of the mineral wealth OF this sec
ton, so that strangers within our gates
may see what great fields are lying
ready here in Southwestern Virginia
and only needing the magic wand of
capital to develop them.
For long time the TIMES has been
advocating the establishment of an
industrial exposition IN this city on
the tenth anniversary of the chartering
OF ths town. The idea was to give the
mineral wealth of the section a CHARGE
to show itself before the world. This
idea had to be abandoned for lack OF
support and there will be no cXposit-
ion. But every one should labor for
the success of the fair at Lynch5urs
aud everyone interested in the mineral
development of the section should do
their utmost to forward it.
Undoubtedly the industrial exhibit
would be the most interesting feature
of the occasion, and it would well repay
the exer,ion required to raise the re-
quisite amount. Ia this connection
the Lynchburg News says of the fair
"This is no longer an agricultural!
and mechanical society. but the in-
dustrial' society. Why should it not
thsn extend helping hand to one OF
the most important classes of our in
dustries? There IS no need OF pre-
,zsa!pess i faE III sasf or largest collec-
minerals. = But the
msssty should instead take exclusive
of all minerals offered, and have
them properly arranged by counties, OF
according to some other system, so that
they could be readily examined. These
minerals should remain in possession o.
the society as Il permanent mineraiogl

the ships used by the Vikings. Such a

to Chicago. The secretary of the aux

1t is fact not generally known that
great deal of Kentucky coal is shipped
to all parts of the civilized world. The
camel coal of Breckenridge county,
the finest variety in the world, is the
product which finds its way into the
foreign market. One of the principal
Of these markets is Italy. Hundreds
of tons of the smooth, jet like blocks
from beneath Kcntucky's grassy soil
find their way TO the Italian shores.
There the camel coal is used in the
production of gas that lights up many a

Leap Years Superstitions.

The ancient Romans considered the
bisextile or leap day" critical day in
their calendar, always reckoning it Is
being among their unlucky days. That
this belief has not by any means lost
ground Is evidenced by the deep-rooted
dislike parents have TO child being
born on ''leap day." it being popular
notion that to come into the world at
such an odd time is ominous, as signify
ing the child's speedy exit.
A variety of this superstition exists in
Tuscany, and, in fact, in many other
European countries. According to Tus'
can folklore a child born on February
go will not live to see another ''lcap day,
or, if it does, it will be motherless. In
Austria child born in the forenoon on
February 20 becomes great personage;h
in the afternoon, a robber; after night, Q
murderer. Other notions of this SOFT,
modified to suit whfns and fancies, exist
in the various countries of the world

The San Francisco Chronicle con-
siders it doubtful whether the Canadian
Pacific Railway Companys scheme for
a steamer trip round the world from
Montreal to Vancouver will prove a
success. In the old days, when con-
nections were difficult to make and
railway travel was extremely slow, the
plan would lave attracted large num-
bers, but now any one may lay out a
tour of the world with small trouble,
and may linger in the countrie, which
he finds most to his taste. Under this
Canadian plan one would be forced to
adhere to the itinerary, which would
be apt to grow tedious.
