Not many years ago it was question
with schoolmasters and other folks
whether the Jungfrau, the magnificent
peak of the Bernese Alps, derived its
name, which in the queens English is
virgin or maiden, from the fact that
no traveller had ever reached its high
est point on account of the virgin puri-
ty of the perpetual snow on its sum-
NIT, which on all sides is surrounded
by precipices. To-day the European
bourses are selling the stock of pro-
jected Jungfrau railway, for which NJ.
Guyer-Zeller, Of Zurich, the principal
owner of the great Northeast railway,
has just received concession" by
the Swiss federal council.
The Jungfrau is situated on the
boundary line Of the cantons Bern and

feet less than that of Mont Blanc, the
giant among the mountains OF Europe
In 1890 project to reach the summit
by rail was launched but the plans
were not feasible. The present plan
IS to start the road on the Scheideck
mountain (Wengern Alp, some six
thousand feet above the sea.

An.oId song.

In reviewing what we are doing they
usually style it: ''The Industrial South"
III we could only have q little diversion
and divert u industries from cotton
to home supplies we would hear less
frequently OF bringing capital to the
South.n Capital would soon be created
on the ground and stay here and being
here would find employment. We are
as Industrious q people as inhabit the
earth-in fact it is all work and no
play, year in and year out. We are
engaged in furnishing the great big
world with cheap raw material to cx-
ercise It's skill upon, and return to us
at fancy prices. When we no longer
look to the West but raise our peas,
pindars, potatoes and pork, we will
have piping times of peace and there
will be less concern as to when the
campaign shall open.
The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1894-05-15

Do learning and integrity qualify for
the ermine Of q Judge or do political
qualifications? An old joke runs
thusly: A certain Eastern Prince held
to the doctrine that the moon was
square and not round. He had q learn
ed lawyer In his dominion who he want
ed as a Judge. But this able Judge on
examination held the moon q round
body and SO another gentleman of in
ferior attachments was selected and
duly installed. Subsequently the two
aspirants met when the beaten party
pointed to the moon at her full and put
the matter to the new Judge, who
answering said: Well it does have q
mighty round appearance to be so
square q thing.

Statistics are published of the almost
billion deposits of the people of the
United States in savings banks. The
West makes but a poor show and the
South is mot in it," Massachusetts
and New York have the majority over
all the rest. What wonder the aver
age life of man is dwindling so fast up
North! What sleepless nights these
poor Yankees must spend for the fear
all this money will be spirited away.
What terror of burglars! "Uneasy lies
the head that YEA a crown" Indeed
it cannot be long until these money
kings will divide to secure peaceful
nights. Just wait.
