MINERAL LAND.

o!fcr for sale POI acres OF Coal and
Iron Land, situated in the Catawba val
ley OF Virginia, eleven miles from Roam
okc. The outlook for great develop
ments on this property is splendid The
ore is Il vein of soft brown hcmat;te 80
feet wide and assaying 80 per cent me-
tallic iron. And the coal prospects arc
tinc-two shafts having been sunk, one
20 and the other - fcct, through solid
coal slate. The property also contains
4 mineral spring, which the analyst of
Lehmann Il Magcr proved to possess re-
markahlc 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 Vir-
ginia will greatly increase tho 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 which
the Roanoke and Craig railroad, and the
othcr. tho Virginia Western railroad,
will afford valuable connections. Fuller

n Pair OF TasIn Euchre Two Bluebirds
Out OF II Nesting Place.
On Farmer Harvey NJ. Van Sicklo's
place, in Silver Lake township, two
story stone millS-ho,fso has been stand
ing FOR more than fifty years When
the masons built it they knocked tho
mouth from an old carthen Jug and
cementcd the jug into tho solid wall
toward tho peak, leaving tho open end
on the outside OF tho wall. Tho kind
hearted workmcn put the jug there for
purpose and every summer since then
wrcnS have ncsted in il.
This season pair of blucbirds rot
there few hours before the wrcns did,
took possession of the jug without any
ceremony and began to carry bits of
straw and dried grass into it at
intervals of fifteen or twenty
minutes. Toward noon pair of
wrons fitted into tho yard and
sailed around the milk-housc two or
threc times Then they made dive
for the opening in the old jug, dartcd
into 1T, and soon flow out, souallinr
spitcfully. Tho reason why they did
this was because they had found ono Of
the blne-birds fixing thing up inside
The surprised bluc-bird sailed out in
the wrens' wake, and then Il fcathcrcd
warfare WAS begun that lasted for two
hours Finding Il stranger in a homo
that had been occupied by wrcns for
half Il century, made the littlc wrcns
mad all over They pitched into tho
bluc-bird and tried to drive it away,
giving vent to angry pipes and squalls
as they fought. For Il timo the blue
rI
the two wore more than Il match for it,
and ii retired to tree. While it was
2crchcd there, the wrrnS ncw into tho
jug and started to drag out the straw
and stuff the blue. birds had carried in.
Tho wrens were bu " cleaning out tho
jug when the blurbirl on the tree was
joined by its mate. All at once thew
took bcc line for tho Jug. They
dar;cd into ii like Il FASH and in Il Soc
ond the wrcns came out as though they
had been fired. They hadn't been
cowcd down by the largo birds by a
long sight, for they immediately turned,
dartcd into the iug, and drove the blue
birds out Then tho four fcathered
combatants had it back and forth
among the trees for half an hour,
neither party entering the jug whilo
tho baltic lasted
Finally they stopped fighting, and
each side began to carry things into tho
jug. The wrcns made two trips whilo
the blucbirds were making one, and
late in the afternoon tho wrcns had
filled the hole so full of twigs that tho
blncbirds couldn't get in. There was
room for the wrcns to go in and out,
and they held the fort against their
bigger foes, who made several attempts
To tear the barrier Of twies away, but
without success. Toward SHUTDOWN tho
blucbirds sailed away and never came
back. and the wrcns have had possess

CHANGED THEIR MINDS.

Indians Who Used to Take White Men for
Good Genii.
The petition Of the Wintu and Yana
Indians, which has been submitted to
tho President through the interposition
of Congressman Greenhalec, contains
the following touching passages:
we thought the white men were the
Yapaitu, tho ancient people, tho spirits
OF our. religion who lived in this world
before tho Wintu camo into it. Some
OF these fapaitu were turned into tho
animals birds, plants, rocks that arc in
the world now. and tho rest went far
away beyond the cdgo OF tho world,
where they have lived happily.
1--WE thought that the white mon
were tho Yapaitu who had come back:
VIC called them Yapaitu, and call them
by that name yet. from habit though
we have learned to our cost that thew
arc different people
believing the new people to be va
paiJu, we said to yourselves at first:
There will DO a better life now, moro
Justice and happiness in tho world
But as soon as the new people wero
numerous and strong they took our
women, our children. took our land.
killed our mon. When our people saw
they had to do not with Yapaitu but
with men who had no respect for us,
they wished to band together and defend
their wives, children and land
1--WE agreed to leave tho whites in
peace, but the whites would not leave
us in this land which we held to DO ours.
since 1T belonged to our fathers, and, in
Justice, it is ours yet, for no man has
bought 1T from us. a.s.f25
"Wo had to leave in silence and 90 TO
another place with toars in our ewes,
and we had to think in our heart it must
be that Washington told tho white
people when you go to California kick
the Wintu, swear at the Wintu, drive
tho Wintu from their land, kill tho
Wintu.
when we went to a second place and
put up houses, we lived there awhile,
then another white man camo and said:
Clear out of here, you Diggers; this is
my land and after that we were driven
from place to place, till now in this land
Of ours there is no place so barren that
we can hold it.
'From the time that white men began
to take our country they killed great
number Of us, in one place so, in another
CO. in another 100, and even 200.
IF ono OF us at this time stands at n
fence and looks into field, man cries
out: What are you looking at you In
dian? BE OIL Don't hang around here
If our women go to gather acorns a
white man drives them away, saying:
Those are my acorns; don't you take
those acorns; | want them for my hogs
THE fana were 1000 in number at
the lowest calculation. This people,
who were perfectly innocent, who did no
harm to the whites, were massacrcd in
1861, SO that of the 1000 there remains
to-day but pa
The destruction of the Yana was
wrought by two bands of men who
bound themselves by oath to spare
neither age nor Sex, and the kept their
oath. They slaughtered little children,
they spared neither youth nor middle
age nor the most advanced dccrcpitude.
When they had finished their work the
fana land was clear, and not one person
OF tho race, so for as they know, was
left alive -Boston Globe.

be distinguished. but the dust of the track
