Cote ST. Louis. Each stone Is seven feet
long, tour feet wide and about two feet
thick. In each stone cavity is to be
cut of sufficient width and depth to hold
the coffin in which Guibord's body is
now inclosed. The wooden coffin hav-
ing been placed in one of the cavities, the
two stones will be accurately fitted to
each other and fastened together with
heavy iron bolts driven through each
stone, and riyetcd at each end. The

A TOUGH STORY.

A story is going the rounds that Ten
nessecai,, named King, while residing OF
his farm In that State, was robbed. In
1869. at different times, by soldiers OF
both the Federal and Confederate armies.
10 avoid these troubles he removed all
his produce and valuable effects to cave
in the Cumberland mountains. One day
a furious storm threw down huge rock,
which closed up the mouth OF the cave.
Failing to extricate himself from his Sc
cluded position, lac lived therein thirteen
years, eating from his produce and drink
ing from an inexhaustible spring. The
other day q railroad company, blasting
for a tunnel, blew him and the remainder
of his provisions out OF their solitude.
Tough. but not improbable.
