to receive his mortal remains when his spirit
shall be summoned hence, it may be urged that
it was not mere whimsical freak, but only in
accordance with the general tenor of his life,
which has ever been marked by strong self-re-
lance and disposition to give his fellow men
no inconvenience on his account. Though
several years have elapsed since he made his
coffin, we hope many more may pass over his
head before occasion will require its use.

The HLittle Detective"

There is hardly housekeeper who has not at
times had suspicious ofshort weights from butch
ers grocers, or Others but with no means OF test
ing, they have been obliged to take articles as
they were dealt out to them. There has never
been any suitable Scale made for housekeepers'
or if there was, the price was too high. Seeing
the great want of something Of this kind, which
could he furnished at low price, the Chicago
Scale Company, ofChicago, Illinois, have been to
great expense in preparing to manufacture /"
house keepers Scale weighing from ounce to 25
pounds which they will sell for $500, being equal
to anything of the kind that has ever sold before
for three times that amount. 1t is made with
brass beam, steel bearings nicely finished and IS
warranted perfect. Every family should nave
one. It is also the most convenient Scale for any
nost office or business office for weighing mail
matter, etc. Boxed, they weigh 10 pounds, and
are sent by express.-1he Interior, Chicago.

LETTER FROM CHESTER.
CHESTER, S. c., March II, 1879.

On Tuesday last, according to programme,
the Chester Light Dragons gave their tour
nament on Patterson's Green. Preceding
the tournament there was a parade in which
about forty men appeared under command Of
Captain Thomas M. Sanders.
At o'clock the fitting commenced, and
the various members who participated, &C.
Quilted themselves quite creditably. The
first prze-a handsome bridle-was taken by
Corporal S. B. Hardin; the second prize-a
pair of spurs taken by private Geo. W..
Hafuer and the third prize riding whip
was taken by private R. G. Smith.
Quite number of ladies graced the occa-
sion with their presence, and everything
passed off pleasantly, with the exception OF Il
Slight accident to private T. B. Woods, who,
riding an unmanag geable horse, found it ne
cessary to jump from his saddle while making
a run, and in doing so, received few slight
bruises.
Mr.. r. A. Love, who was commissioned by
Bull Run Grange to visit Charleston, tor the
purpose of buying fertilizers on the best terms
he could secure for the cash, has returned l
learn that his mission was successful IN re-
gard to prices, and his transactions are entirely
Satisfactory to those for whom he acted.
Among recent improvements in town,
notice that DR.. G. B. White is having new
fencing made and building out-houses ON his
premises occupied by Mr.. Dsvid Mofat, on
Lacy street.
One of our town capitalists, Mr.. John L..
Yongue, has recently purchased tract Of
land, as an investment, in the eastern part OF
the county, near the present terminus of the
Cberaw and Chester Railroad. The tract
contains 32O acres, for which Mr.. Yongne
naid $4,000. He says that sum is $1,000
more than he would have paid for the prop
erty in the absence of railroad to that
mint This is one instance among many OF

Seattle is infested by a gang of
petty thieves who have caused much
annoyance during the past week
Numerous chicken roosts and clothes
lines have been robbed, and in many
cases private residences have been
entered and plundered ofvaluabe ar
ticles. In one instance the thieves
gained access through a window to
the Mushroom in an uptown dwell
ing, and carried off looking glass,
combs, brushes, towels and soap.
They then entered an adjoining room
and took from basket lot of clothes
that had been brought from the line
just before dusk as a precautiOn
against thieves. Several citizens
propose to protect their chicken
coops by setting gun loaded with
buckshot at the entrance in such a
manner that access cannot be gained
without causing the discharge of the
the gun, which would speedily send
the theft or thieves to kingdom
come.

CULTURE VERSUS 1GNoRANCE.-It
is delorable fact, that not two men
can read and understand newspaper
items alike. Some, whose blood is
tinctured with that of the coyote,
always see evil in the most just and
harmless articles; while those animated
by noble sentiments and pious inn
pulses, never even dream of such con-
structions as are stamped upon an in
nocent paragraph by the vile and de-
PRAYED. A truer proverb was never
uttered to express our thoughts upon
the subject as honi soft qui nal y pense,
or shame to him who evil thinks.

A letter from Eagle Rock Idaho,

y ieitef from Eagle ROck Idaho,
to the Salt Lake Tribune, says COM
pany has just been organized there
to work the placer mines on Snake
river. 1t is composed of miners of
the territories and eastern men.
The is called the Idaho Snake River
Gold Mining Company. They pro-
pose to commence operations on q
large scale with all the newest and
most improved machinery for saw
ing gold. They have organized
with capital stock of 100000.
Their claims lie above and below on
the river, composed of some of the
best gold mines on the Snake, and
known as the Black Canyon claims.
Surveys have been made for a big
ditch which will be brought down
for working the company's mines,
and will also supply water for the
mines below. Splendid prospects
have been made, averaging from one
to five cents to the pan. 1t is be-
lieved that Snake river will soon be
lined with miners for long distance
working for gold. Eagle rock is
just beginning to claim distinction
both as railroad point and min
ing town.

he has chosen his vocation, to stick
to it. Don't leave it because hard
blows are obe struck, Or disagreeable
