States Geological Survey in co.
operation with the Virginia
Geological Survey, was S,l22,
59G short tons, valued at 81

compared with 1914 of l63,o6l
tons, or per cent, in quantity
but decrease of 800. 5l4, or less

ton was more than S,S00,00O
tons, the output in 1915 was the
highest recorded for Virginia.
Wise County, the largest pro-
Queer, showed a decrease of
more than 1907 900 tons, but all
the other counties recorded in

APPALACHIA WINS BASE
BALL PENNANT.
BY Defeating Big Stone Gap
Are Declared Champions
of Wise County.

In the final game Of the In
terscholastic League of Wise
County, Appalachia badly DE
feated Big Stone Gap here Sat
urday afternoon by Il score OF
l2 to 1, thereby winning the
base ball pennant, having won
all games played. The defeat
was n severe one and in fact it
was n surprise, as close game
was expected by everybody
The home team had borne the
reputation of having the tastes /
fielding team in the league, but
in this particular game they
fell down completely, misiude
ing several fly balls which went
for extra bases, However, this
was not due to their defeat, as
Appalachia's pitcher, Cress,
hurled "A mastery game, being
extremely effective in pinches.
Big Stone Gap filled the bases
with runners several times in
the early part of the game, but
were unable to score only one
time. The bases were still full
and TWO out in the second in
ming after making this score,
the next batter had three balls
and no strikes and Cress punch
ed him. Cress featured also
with Il home run TO center field
in the ninth with ii man on
base. The bali went straight
for the center fielder, but was
mlsjudged and it rolled far into
deep center. Brown, Wakin
and Polly secured extra base
hits, which figured heavily in
the scoring. Although there
were about twelve errors piled
up by the home team, Carnes
and Fleenor featured at second
and third bases by their fast
fielding, accepting several diff
cult chances.
Tho Norton girls won the vol.
Icy ball pennant, defeating
their opponents IN every game.

Humorous
Verdicts.

Many verdicts of a strange
curious and humorous nature
find birth, not infrequentIy, in
coroner's jurics and juries in
the justice courts.
Uncommonly intelligent are
the coroner's jurics in Mississip.
pi. Twelve men in Warren
county, in that state, returned a
verdict several years ago which
read: The deceased died by tho
will of God or some other di.
sease unknown to the Jury"
Another verdict equally as
solemn reads rs follows: ave
are of n Pinion that the decest
met hor death from Violent In.
iirmation of the Arm, producest
from Unoan Cauz."
An old story, often repeated.
Is that and English jury, in a
criminal case, one brought in
tho following: "Guilty, with
some little doubt as to whether
he is the man.
Another is told of a Welsh
Jury which reads: eve find the
man who stold the mare not
guilty"
In a Southwest Virginia
court some years ago the case
IN question involved a mill site
aud dam in small stream.
The jury's verdict was that.
Brown has a dam by a mill
site; but Jones has no mill dam
site"
y case was once tried in a
certain county court, which in
volved the character of n bull.
1t was charged that the bull had
gored and killed n valuable
horse. After hearing the testi-
mony, the jury retired, and uf.
ter a few moments consulta-
ton returned and rendered the
following; eve the jury, fluid n
vredict in favor of the bull,
and believe him to be a highly
respectable animal" Thus, tho
bull was acquitted and plaintiff
lost his case.

not indicated TO any one his

il entirely possible that no re.
