The complete change in the wealth

melancholy days have come" and
that winter will soon be with us

the B. & 0. is to put IN for them,
but as it will be put in soon they
will begin shipping coal for which
they have already several large or

sists of two veins of excellent coal.
One vein is seven feet thick and
the other four, both suitable for
smithing, steam and coking pur-
poses. The test made from the out
crop of the 4-foot vein turned out
first-class coke. Corlnth promises
to be very busy town this winter,

Corinth before locating elsewhere.
Lots can be bought very reasonable,
