Query; Would justice hsve pursued him so
relentlessly If he had been a bauk officer and
had stolen half milion?-JOurnal.
Query again: II it had pursued him, and
his case had been brought before a United
States grand jury, would Hayes, the presi-
Dental fraud, have interfered? Query, once
more: II Hayes had interfered. is there an
other judge in the country who, like Judge
Gresham, would have told him to mind his
own business, and not attempt to obstruct
the execution of the law?

editor, Mr. ]. b. R,bington, writes As follows:
"Inasmuch as the lady TeieBred to in the
above ART icle is our mo her, we deem it ONT
duty to rspnblsh it and make the necessary
corrections. The story is correct with the
exception of places and The lady's
father WAS native of New York and moved
to Grsenup county, Kentucky, where our
mother was born ana raised. The place
where she WAS made Mason was in an I'M
finished church room. Size secreted herself
under the pulpit, GONG in AT an entrance
from the side, and was eventually discovered
while leaving her hiding place after the lodge
had adjourned. She was about fifteen years
old whom she was made a Mason, and our
father did not join the order for nearly
twenty years after thu were married. We
do not belong To the or1er, but we have 1t
from men who do that sbe Is brighter Ia Ma
sonry than a large number of men who have
passed to the third degree. Our mother Is
still living, and Is now In Boyd county, Ken
lucky, few miles from where she was first
initiated into the mysteries Of that ancient
order Of Masons."

but Jack was as cool, steady, unpretendipg
in manner as if he were on the way into
cellar. Lower away slowly" was the word,
and he sank down, down and disappeared in
slack, but at last a faint "Ho-o-ope" came
up from below. and the sliding rope was
stopped In ten minutes more came a signal
TO hoist sway, and the man was drawn up.
He reports ed the air of the shaft pretty good,
but the VEINS bad. He had taken a muslin
sheet down and pafled it-withoCt any
lamp-in the place OF the broken PARTITION at
the bottom. to cause a slight draft
of air. He returned wearing the
same calm determined, matter.of-fact
expression but ne was wet and dirty.

The preparations, throwing of water rig
giDg Of tackling, esc., were slow and careful.
The hours wore away. Jack, having proved
the possibility of going down and coming
back alive, was now joined by William
Seveil, of Shelburn. They took with them
a Davy safety lamp, bat left It at the bottom
of the pit and explored the lower vein in
absolute darkness on hands and knees.
After a long search, during which the watch
ers at the top felt thai they had sacrificed
themselves, they found the missing BODY of
Pat Dunn, about IS yards from the shaft
covered with rubbish OF course he was
dead. The body was brought up st 10 min
ntes to ~ o'clock, and found TO be unscarred
and not even burned. Dunn must have been
suffocated.
