oeen raging lor two days in
the Craigen tunnel on the Clinch
Valley division of the Norfolk
and Western, and all traffic west
of the tunnel is being routed east
via Bristol over the Virginia and
Southeastern. All efforts to
subdue the flames have been
1 futile, and heat and smoke are
pouring out of hotii ends of the
tunnel. It is supposed that the
fire was caused^by ignition of a
stratum ot coal in ine tunnel.
A telegram was received here
this evening staling that the tire
which broke out in the Craigen
tunnel last Wednesday night has
been oxtingnished.

The Educational Rally Whn a
Grand Succosh.
The educational rally was a
success. There were only two
speakers present. Hon. M L.
Smith of Camden could not be
with us. Supt. O. B. Martin
and Supt. W. II. Hand made
fine speeches.
Mr. Hand spoke first, and
commenced by announcing that
he would not take more than
three hours. Some of his hearers
said they could well afford
to listen to him three. He is a
pleasant speaker. His speech
was exactly what we needed.
The manner in which he put
the facts was such that they
could not be shunned. H6 told
of how our people were running
away from South Carolina He
said if you take the number of
people who have left South
Carolina and subtract the number
who have come in, you will
find we have a net loss of 179,000
who were born in South
Carolina. What does this mean?
What is the result, said he, of
this? He went on showing that
these people went to other states
to better their condition. He
proved conclusively that ignorance
leads to leaving of our
people, undeveloped resources,
destruction of timber, etc., low
estimate of education. He ad
vocatod a high or standard for
teachers. The teachers are not
paid enough to give them money
enough to dress and go respectably.
They expect him to be
too much off the small salary.
We must, said he, create the
article before the demand can
be made. He is almost of the
opinion that we would be better
off to do without the $20 teach
