ONE of the most valuable Indian
relics we have ever seen was brought
into our office to-day. 1t was a combi-
nation pipe and tomahawk. The handle
and pipe-stcm is made of sugar-,ree
wood. Apparently machine turned.
The mouth-piece, however, has been re-
moved. The handle is embelished with
silver hands fastened to it with faultless
regularity. On the pole of the toma-
hawk is to be observed smooth silver
emblem, not unlike the shield of the
United States. This strange object was
plowed up in the garden OF o. ID. Mont.
gomery, near ShaCkle Island, Sumner
county. The spot was cleared about the
year 1903. When found, this peculiar
piece of mechanism was wrapped in raw.
hide covered with an oleaginous COM
pound. -NdShUIIie Banner.

CARE OF CELLARs.-At this season Of
tho year cellars need looking after. The
cellar under the house should never be
used as a store-house Of vegetables and
fruits, except in small quantities, during
the winter Keeping several hundred
bushels Of roots under the rooms where
families live is something which should
never be tolerated. But where it is done
the whole should be cleaned and purified
as early as possible. Chloride of lime is
a cheap and common preventive of foul
odors. Chloraum is another, nearly as
cheap and even more effiCacious With
all decaying vegetables removed and
buried in some out-of- the-way place, and
the sound vegetables placed where they
will ue dry, there need be no fear that
these disinfectants will not prevent any
evil odors making their way 10 the fam
ily living in rooms. AS warm weather
approaches, cellar windows should be
opened to allow circulation of air.

Revenue Matters.

NEW YORK, July 26. Gov. Hampton says rel
alive to the trouble between the state and federal
government regarding the trial Of arrested reve-
nue. officers, that he is ANXIOUS the case be allowed
to take its regular course in order that questions
involved may be settled for the future. 1t will
certainly 20 up through the State supreme court
on appeal and the [. 5. supreme court will decide
1t IN any event.
If you should assert its jurisdiction at once and
take possession OF the prisoners by peiemptoiy
order. this would cause occasion for great and
needless excitement and would render further en-
forcement of the revenue laws almost impossible
as the dstiilels would think the stale author tiles
unable to protect them, and the probability is that
the grsvest consequences would follow, and all his
efforts TO have state and U. ). laws enforced will
be nugstory.
The State supreme court nay decide in favor of
the U. ). government, aud 10 this event q perfect
acquiescence would be heartily accorded. Opinion
throughout the state, he said was that Judge Kerr
shaw was rema kably free from political or party
feeling, and he is known to be a man of highest
character, both public and private. Nothing iii
make him overstep the bou nds of his office or vi
olste the law. Hampton wrote to the President
asking that 1t be allowed to take its regular course
and assuring the President that he will heartily
cooperate with him in enforcing the revenue
laws.

Modern methods have had and are still having a
willing heating by the farmers The idea hs. taken
possession OF great many men that it Is better to
stay at home and expend their energy here, than
to begin a wandering life and waste the time and
strength on distant FARMS that are just as likely to
be retained for few years ouy as for the rest of
the lifetime. The promise Of farming in Maine
this year is extremely good, which helps much 10
strength ming and deepening this feeling of con-
tentmeDt. Her culturists may go as far from home
as they please, but they will find no State, all
things considered that will yield them what is be-
ing got from the familiar acres they now occupy.
