An Engineering Feat.

Richmond, Va, January 90.-The Mil
Ter Manual School, in Albemarle county,
one the largest and most prosperous in
stitutions of the kind in the South, has re-
Gently accomplished one the most inter-
estipg engineering feats that has been at
tempted in Virginia for some time. This
school, which was provided for in the will
of the late Samtal Miller, of Albemarle, is
located near Greenwood depot, at the foot
of the mountains in that county. Until
recently all of the machinery used in the
various shops in the institution was
driven bv steam engines. Mr.. Vawter,
the principal of the school, conceived the
idea of converting the old stream on the
TOP of the mountains into motive power to
take the place of steam. A reservoir was
constructed with capacity of 10, 900, 600
gallons. and into this the stream was di-
verted. The water is brought down from
the reservoir 30 the work shops In
heavy iron pipes, The elevation gives a
AZ of 250 feet, the highest fall used for
manufacturing purposes, propably, in Vlr-
o1nia. The turbine wheel, which is pro-
nelled bv this stream, furnishes motive
power for generating electricity, which
furnishes the motive power for driving all
the machinery.

WONDERFUL GOLD DISCOVERY.
,re Worth 100000 a Ton Discovered in
Cripple Greek.

Denver, Col, Jan. 31.-A special to the
News from Cripple Creek, Col, says OF
the recent strike in Isabelle Ground.
"Your correspondent saw chunks ofsyl-
yanite that we're three inches thick and
solid metal, and chunks of the oxldlzed
ore of the same width, that he whitfield
with his .pocket-knife. No assays have
been made on the rock; it is not necessary,
but pieces of the free gold ore, if ore it can
be called at all, run over $500, 900 per ton.
ssManager Kilburn said 4 do not
like to say anything that will excite the
people any more than they are at present
The metallic ore body has doubled in size
both ways since yestardy morning. Some
of the pieces of ore are so per cent gold
1 never saw such mineral, and do not
believe that its like was ever mined in this
or any other camp in the world.
.'Armed guards are watching the pro-
perty. The strike was made in the new
ore body at depth of $40 feet below the
surface. There is at least blocked out in
one level, beneath the ninth and seventh
levels, $5,OOO,0QO worth Of ore."

BUTLER ON CUBANS.
hey Will in Time Be Capable of Self
Government

Washington, D. c., January 80 Gen
eral NJ. c. Butler was given hearing by
the Senate Committee on Military affair:
today in regard to affairs in Havana
where he has been recently stationed as
one of the Evacuation Commission. He
gave detailed account of the recent
clashes in that city between the Spanish
soldiers and the Cubans. He expressed
the opinion that General Brooks order
forbidding participation in the evacuation
ceremonies by the Cubans was necessary
precaution, and that ifit had not been is
sued there would have been trouble. The
Spanish residents were exceedingly ner-
vous.
At the time, he thought the Cubans
should be treated literally and allowed to
participate to considerable extent in the
conduct of public aflaires. He believed
that the Cuban soldiers under American
command could be utilized in main
tanning order even among the Cubans.
He dwelt at some length on the excess
sive taxes imposed under the old system.
General Butler expressed the opinion
that in time the Cuban people would be
capable of self.goverment, but that they
should be given an opportunity to quiet
down and get used to more liberal ad'
ministraton than they had ever known.
He said IN reply to question from Sc
nator Carter, that a census of the Cubans
would be advisable.

FriqhtfuI Runaway.

On last Thursday very frighttul and
serious runaway took place on the road
leading to Liberty Hill about two miles
west Of town. A man by the name OF
Dudley Harold, who had been living at
Glen Lyn, in Giles county, was taking his
family to Thompson Valley, for the pur-
pose of making his future residence there.
He was driving a two horse wagon, in
which were his wife and several children.
When he got near the residence of Mr.,
Thomas Hawkins, Jr., in some way, the
bride slipped off the head of one Of the
horses and the animal at once became un-
manageble. Mr.. Harold jumped out to
try to get at the head of the horses but
was knocked down by front wheel OF the
wagon and the horses began to run. They
ran on by the home of Capt. j. S. Peery,
and were not stopped until they got nearly
to the top of the hill Nest ofCapt. Peery's
residence. During the running Mrs. Har-
rold and her five months old infant were
thrown from the wagon, also child about
four years old. The infant was very SER
iously injured by conclusion and for some
hours afterward suffered with convul-
sions. The little four year old boy had his
left arm badly fractured between the shoul-
der and elbow. DR.. ). H. Crockett was
sent for and rendered the necessary surgic-
al and medical attention. One child re-
mained in the wagon until the horses were
stopped, and, Of course, escaped without
injury.

wing Cuban children around, and when

INTERESTING LETTER.
From Col. Thomas L. Preston.
University OF Virginia,

university OF virginia,
January 3lst, 1S99
VIM. G. Pendleton, Esq,
Editor and Proprietor of TAzEwELI
REPUBLICAN, Tazewell, Va.
Dear Sir:
My attention was called to an article in
your issue of Jany. 26th, headed "Dis-
covery of New RIVER" and in it is an error
IN date. l am sure that Col. A. J. May
has also unintentionallY made mistake
both in date and history. 1t is true that
DIR. Thomas Walker crossed New River in
1748 on his way to Cumberland River and
Cumberland Gap, but it was under the
leadership of Col. James Patton.
This first pioneer expedition was organ
lied near Waynsboro, in Augusta county:
at Col. Patton's residence, and consisted
of John Buchanan, son-in-law of Col.
Patton; Charles Campbell, brother-in-aw
of John Buchanan; DR.. Thomas Walker;
and Villa m Wood, of Albermarle; and a
company of hunters and axmen.
In a paper written for the Daughters of
the Revolution and published in the Ameri-
can Monthly Magazine of January, 1897
/ give an account of this expedition and
under what auspices Col. Patton named
Walkers Mountain, Cumberland mountain
and Cumberland River.
In 1749 Col. Patton revisited that coun-
try and bought the settlers right to tract
of land called "Sapling Grove" from one
Taylor, assigned 1t to John Buchanan, who
surveyed it in l749.
In the same year, in company with Will
liam Ingles, he visited Burks Garden.
(See DR.. John P. Hales Trans-Alleghany
Settlers, page 252.) They took up land on
Peak Creek and Burks Garden in 1853,
(see page 124 7. A. S. by J. P. H.). James
Burk came there in 1854 "from Ingles
Ferry, was the first settler, as elsewhere
stated and gave the place, his name and
his life.
Mrs. Letitia Floyd, who was the grand
niece of Col. James Patton, and whose
husband, Governor John Floyd. was his
great grand son, gives different account
of the naming Of Burks Garden. She said
that Burk was of the party of surveyors
who, under the authority of Col. Patton,
we're the first to 90 there for surveying the
land taken up by Col. Patton. Burk,
struck with the fertility of the soil planted
tie peelings of the potatoes that were oil
their commissary stores, saying, as ne did
go, that it would be seen Oh their return
what fine crop he would gather. This
was in the Spring Of the year (perhaps
1750). On their return in the Fall of the
same year the potatoes were dug, and sore
markable was the yield and quality that the
beautiful valley was called Burks Garden.
These facts l give Mr.. EDITOR for the
benefit of my many friends of years gone
by, and whose descendants still reside in
that picturesque country.
Yours very respectfully and truly,
THos. L. PRESTON.
P.S. omitted to state that l have a
COPY of DR.. Thomas Walkers diary of his
expedition in 1850, and that DIR. John P,
Hale gives the history of the discovery of
New River.

EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS.

A number of our Democratic contem-
poraries in Virginia are advocating the
election of United States Senators by the
people, urging as a reason therefor the
corrupt methods that are now used to se-
cure elections by State Legislatures. We
would like for some of them to explain
the moral difference between buying
seat from Legislature and securing it by
all manner of frauds upon the ballot box.
There may be moral distinction, but it
will be hard to prove.
They say that Bryan is welded to free
silver" This is not the first instance of a
man being welded to folly.
The Wytheville Dispatch" says:
"The trainers of the Constitution would
blush with shame if they could see how
the matchless instrument which they de-
vised is being distorted to allow the pur-
chase of seats in the United States Sem
ate." 1t says that the occurrences in the
Legislatures OF Pennsylvania and other
States is strong argument in favor of the
election of Senators by the people. What
about the occurrences in the Legislature
that elected Tom Martin U. S. Senator
from Virginia? Will the Dispatch scratch
off the white wash that was applied to
that transaction.
Ex-Governor Culberson, of Texas, has
been elected by the Legislature of that
State to the United States Senate to sue
ceed Roger @. Mills. The latter gentle
man was opposed to free silver and Bryan
ism, and was cast aside for the young
champion of the modern Democracy that
fights under the Populist flag.
An ice trust to include all the big ice
harvesters in the United States, according
to the Chicago Chronicle" is about 10
be formed. We reckon they want to
freeze the small harvesters out.
