TAzEWELL FEMALE SEMI
NARY.


| The community had the pleasure
on Friday and Saturday evenings
last of attending literary and mu
sical entertainments at the Semi
nary.
The exercises OH Friday evening
were those of the society known as
the MUSES.. There are three liter
ary societies i'll the school-the
MUSES., the Graces and the Nymphs,
each of which has it's regular
weekly meeting. The first to give
public entertainment was the
Muses.. The other two will follow
in the same line later-the Graces,
February 21st.
The program was, of course, the
society's own origination, and in
its execution reflected much cred
it upon the members of the organ
ization. The notable feature was
a debate of the question: Resolved,
"That Nature is Superior to Art.n
-Four young ladies read arguments,
the merits of which were to be
passed upon by committee of
gentlemen selected from the audi
ence. The decision in favor of the
affirmative met with the approval
of the audience.
The musical and recitative parts
of the program were pleasing fea-
lures.
Mrs. Ferguson, an honorary
member of the society, won rounds
of applause in a happy rendition
of vocal solo.
The exercises on Saturday even
ing were conducted by the teach
ers, pupils and few "outsiders,n
admitted behind the curtains for
the "nonce." 1t was benefit en-
tertainment, and, by the way, had
the advantage of a thinning out of
the small boy and obstreperous No.
13 pedal hammercrs in the audi
ence.
The "Song of Seven," with Miss
Vivian Gillespie as "seven times
one" was good throughout to the
end, when Miss Kiscr's elocutiona-
ry powers thrilled her attentive
hearers.
| Mrs. g. Shelburne had taken a
part in this, and recited with an
Interpretation and feeling that
had never before been reached
here in q similar role. Not q shade
of possible infection was missed.
1T was revelation in histrionic
talent.
NOTES.
Miss Brown, of Abingdon, as a
debator, made it impossible for an
opponent, even of unusual ability,
to wrest the argument from her.
| Miss Baker, as dialect recita-
Zionist, was par eecellencc and will
meet future audiences or dIsap.
point them.
J; Misses Albro and Walker, whose
entrances are always looked for as
the things of all to be enjoyed,
were not allowed to retire after
Z their set parts, but were recalled
to appease an unsuitable demand
for more Of the quintescence of
harmony.
Mrs. Ferguson and Shelburne,
and Misses Albro, Walker and
Cooke, of the faculty, lent their
talents to an entertainment that
would have been imperfect with
out them.
Frank Stras was in it.
a. @. SPOTS wound up q picnic
!. by being worse scared than he ap-
peared to be, and he was no slouch
in the latter role.

mem berig names will account for
lunparonablc omissions.

Confidence in the soundness OF

Company, on Olinch Valley exten.
sion, 5176 gross tons, and from gas
coal mines, 1919 gross tons, making
the total shipments for year, 1,sO7,-
TIC gross tons, OF the above ton
mage, l,145,497 gross tons were
shipped to tidewnter, tho remain
der to line trade and railroads.
During the year 1890 two cor
porations began shipping from the
Pocahontas district. viz: The Coal
dale Coal and Coke Company, and
tho Lick Branch Colliery.
On the Clinch Valley division,
the Richlands Coal Company and
the Virginia Gas Coal Company be-
gan shipping coal.
Preparations are being now made
with Il view of largely increasing,the
output in both sections mentioned,
and the year 1891 will probably see
about four moro collieries in opera
tion i'll the Pocahontas district, and
possibly five or six on tho Clinch
Valley division, which will have
the effect of bringing tho tonnage
up to 100000 gross tons during
the year, unless unforeseen Difficult
ties should prevent the prompt
movement of the coal to market.
The small output in December,
1890, is attributable to the snow
blockade and the scarcity of labor
during the holiday week.
