gB~The bonded Indebtedness of Haw-
kiHs county is $40, geo. Forty thousand
of which debt is on behalf of the ROg-
ersville and Jefferson Railroad. Two
thousand six hundred dollars were IS
sued in bonds to redeem county war
rants. We doubt whether one dollar of
this Indebtedness could be collected off
the people in court Of law; but never
theless, the holders of the bonds ought
to be paid what the bonds cost them.

PROSPECTING BILL.
His Latest Find.

Prospecting Bill invaded The
TIMES editorial room yesterday af-
ternoon, bearing upon his shoulder
barley sack partly filled with
specimens. As he entered he said:
"Good morning. guess you deal
know me; I'm Prospecting Bill; all
the boys know who am. lean beat
any of them findin' lodges, though,
for money, marbles or eight-day
clocks. went out this mornin' just
for little exercise, bein' as it was
showing q little, and sort o. dull
around town. Whenever I get the
blues or anything, always start out
with prospecting pick and some
crackers and bolognies, and Pm sure
to find something. l went out about
seven this morning and here 1 am
now, and see what have got"
Here Bill smiled genuine West
ern smile and began to open the
sack.
"Where did you say you went this
morning?'
"Now you must excuse me. You
know / never tell them things.
There's nary man in this town that
can go to where l got these here but
myself, and l tell you, pard, amt
going to blow on Bill. Just heft o.
that"
And Bill took out several of as fine
pieces of galena rock as we have
seen for many day. They were
taken from the surface groupings, as
weather stains were on nearly all of
them. We asked Bill to let us in
with him, and he simply grunted out
an "eh,' as though deeply absorbed
in some other considerations. Pres
entity he went on:
81 didn't come in here to have you
put me or them specimens in the
paper. don't want notoriety or
anything like that. 1 just want to
convince you that there's many a
good ledge out in them hills that's
never been discovered yet. When I
get on the trail Of one l generally
fetch up with chunks that make
their eyes open. When I went out
this morning l struck line of crop
pings at the base of sienite hill
about mile east of here-but hold
on! I'm tellin' you where it is, amt
1. I'd ike to do it, you know, but
I'm afraid it wouldn't pan out.
Won't you come out an take sum.
fin2'
mo, thank you"
"Well. Don't say anything in the
paper about this. The boys all know
it now, but I don't want the public
to find it oat. Good day."

PERFEcTIoN.- Nothing is more
difficult to attain than even COM
psrative degree Of perfection. In
professions and scholastic attain
ments proficiency may be acquired
by years of self-denisl and hard
study, but In some branches of trade
a fine taste, keen sense of the beau
ties as presented to the eye or sug-
gested to the fancy, are needed. If
anyone will visit the magnificent
dry goods establishment Of A. vaen-
berg, No. 80 South C street, they will
observe by his elegant stock of
goods that they have been selected
by one who thoroughly understands
his business.

ANOTHER RAILWAY ACCIDENT

ANOTHER RAILWAY ACCIDENT
Notwithstanding many warnings

dren are still allowed to take free
rides on the fiat cars and sport
about moving trains in the most
dangerous manner. Yesterday an
accident occurred at Virginia to a
party of boys who were Sealing .
ride on moving train. They were
on flat cars and by some means I'M
known one OF the cars was thrown
from the track. A boy by the name
of Eugene Kelly received such in
ternal injuries as may prove fatal.
Another boy, named Willie Muir
ply. had his foot badly crushed,
but managed to crawl home unaid-
ed. No blame is attached to the
railway employees. The boys were
seen on the ear and told by brake
man before it started to get off.
They would not do it, and the con-
sequences above recited followed.

DELIRIUM TREMENs.-A gentle
man who came in from a prospect
ing tour yesterday reported meeting
man out in the hills who was suf-
fering from a bad case of the jim
jams. He was in mortal dread of
tarantulas, and said he could see
mountains OF them all around him,
approaching with distendad Jaws.
When the prospector made believe
to kill some of these dreadful things
by stamping his heel upon the
ground, the afflicted man was some
what pacified. Soon, however, he
saw a hydra headed OK, and made
off to get out of his way. He was a
tall man, dark completed, and was
dressed shabbily, of course. He was
without hat and refused to come
towards town with the prospector.

THE TRUE SPIRIT.

Some of our Republican brethren do
not approve Of the remark Of Governor
Tiden, that when elected he will cntcr
upon the duties Of his position, mot as
II holiday recreation, but very much in
that spirit OF oonsccration in which the
soldier enters battle" To our mind
this feeling OF the Importance of the
work before him, Of the cnormlty Of
the task which is for him TO accom-
plish, is one OF tho surest auguries OF
tho success with which we feel conf
dent that his efforts are destined to bc
crowned. II displays n just apprecia-
ton ofthc obstacles that will be thrown
in his way, of tho danger with which
his path will be bcsct Of the amount
of persistent energy thatit will be nee
cssary to oxpcnd in tho prosecution of
his work. The great mass of corrnp.
ton which is now rolling over the
country has, in its movement, acquired
such momentum that TO stay its pro-
gross will require the expense oigreater
force than most mon possess. In ad-
dtion to this impetus, depending upon
its own inertia, ovcry man whom the
new President will find in Office will
have an interest in impeding his on.
dcavors and pushing on the hldeous
heap. Tilden has, however, shown his
eminent ability To do just such work
rs will be necessary for its destruction,
and wc have no doubt about His sue
cess In whatever OF the kind hc.under-
takes. 1t cannot be done, however, by
iunkcting about tho country, aud en-
gaging in a series OF varied pleasures
and immoral royelries, like Grant, who
views his position as q personal gilt
for past services, and thing intended
only to yield him us much scnsuons
qualification as possible. 1t will be
hard work to uproot Grantism. Hayes
could never accomplish it. He has
neither the necessary strength of will
nor capacity for the work. Tildcn has
but he knows that TO the strongest
man il will be most arduous under
taking, and he will enter upon it in a
proper and becoming spirit.-Ointon
Democrat.
