Natural Enemies of the Telegraph.

There is apparently no apparatus so
liable to be interfered with by what we
may call natural causes as the electric
telegraph. Fish gnaw and mollusks
overweight the submarine conductors
of the subterranean wires while there
is at least one instance of frolicsome
whale entangling himself i'll a deep sea
cable, to its utter disOrganizatiOn. 1t is
stated that within the three years end
ing 1873, there have been sixty serious
interruptions to telegraphic communi-
cation in Sumatra, by elephants. In
one instance, these sagaciOus animals,
most likely fearing snares, destroyed Il
considerable portion of the lines, hid
ing away the wires and insulatOrs in a
cane-brake. Monkeys of all tribes and
sizes, too, in that favored island, use the
poles and wires as gymnasia, occasion
ally breaking them and carrying off the
insulatOrs; while the numerous tigers,
bears and buffaloes on the track render
the watching and repair of the line a
duty of great danger. In Australia,
where there are no wild animals to in
iure the wires, which are carried great
distances overland, they are said TO be
frequently cut down by scarcely less
wild abOrigines, who manufacture from
them rings, armlets, and other varieties
of barbaric ornaments.

and thus relates the manner in which
he acquired such habit of early rising.
"In my youth" says he, 81 was excess

could make me get up n six o'clock.
He failed not the next Cay to rouse and

tried the day following, and threatened
him. Friend Joseph said to hirI, at
noon, Il have lost my time, and you
have gained nothing. You do not know
how TO manage the matter. Think
only of my promise, and do not regard
my threatenings' The day following
he accomplished his point. At first
begged, then entreated, and abused, and
would have discharged him, but he dis
regarded me, and raised me by absolute
force. He had his reward every day for
ill-humor at the moment of waking, by
thanks, and a crown an hour after. /

How Officials Were Once Paid.

1t is not a generally known historical
fact that from IVY to 1874 the territory
known as Tennessee formed a part OF
North Carolina, and that in 1855 the
Tennesseans, becoming dissatisfied with
the government, organized a state gov
ernment under the name of f"Franklyn,'
which was maintained some years. The
organization afterward disbanded, and
Territorial Tennessee was again an
neXed to North Carolina. The follow
ing is among the laws enacted by the
legislature of the state of Franklyn,
We copy as found in a speech by Daniel
Webster on the currency in 1898.
''Be it enacted by the general assem-
bly, of the state of Franklyn, and it is
hereby enacted by the authority of the
same That from the first day of Janua-
ry, l770, the salaries of the officers OF
this commonwealth shall be as follows,
to wit:
ellis excellency the governor, per an
mum, 900 deer skins.
ellis honor the chief justice, 500 deer
skins; or 500 raccoon skins.
"The treasurer of the state, 450 rae

"Each county clerk, 300 beaver
skins.
"Clerk of the house of commons, 200
raccoon skins.

Yield of the Big Bonanza.

Virginia (Nev. Enterprise.
The Consolidated Virginia mine has
produced $G4, ,97O,777 90 bullion and paid
$40, 1870, 900 in dividends, and the Caliior-
MIA mine has produced SAC, ,736, ,S3l II in
bullion, and paid $3l 1920, 900 in divi-
dends, making combined product OF
$1ll, ,707, ,GOS, and $74,25O, 900 in divi-
dends. All this wealth came out of one
OF those nodules or concretiUns of ore in
the great Comstock vein, popularly
known Us bOnanZas. The nOdulcs are
the sugar-plums occurring here and
there il the vein. Many have been
found in the vein, first and last, but the
one in the ground OF the California aud
Consolidated Virginia companies, men
toned above, was the chief of them all,
They OCCUR in the vein with about as
much regularity as do plums in Il pud-
ding. As John Mackay says: "BOnan-
zas are where you find them" They
are found at times and in places most
unexpected. With all the knowledge
gained in twenty years, our minin g
men cannot locate bOnanZas in advance
of the picks and drills. Could any of
them have done so, the big bonanza, the
grandest of all thus discovered, would
not have lain under our noses in the
middle of the city for nearly eighteen
years, trOdden over and despis d. Not a
sign on the surface or in the surround
ing ground indicated the wealth lying

The Founder of the Sect.

Alexander Campbell, the founder OF
the sect of which President Garfield is
a member, was born in county Antrim,
Ireland, in June, 1856, and died at Beth
any, West Virginia, March A, 1866. He
was educated at the University of Glas-
gov and came to this country in 1909
For time he was pastor OF a Presbyte-
rian church, from which denomination
he soon separated on the ground that
the bible should be the sole creed of the
church. In 1910 he and his father also
a Presbyterian clergYmni) organized 4
new society at Brush Run, Pennsylva-
MIA. In 1912 he became convinced that
Immersion was the only mode of baptism
and he and his congregation were i'm
mersed. They united with a Baptist
association, but still protested agains.
all human oreeds as a bond of union i'm
the churches. He and his followers
were excluded from fellowship with the
Baptist churches, and in 1927 began TO
form separate organization, which ex-
tended in the states of Virgi ia,
Tennessee and Kentucky. In 1865 the
sect numbered 100000 members, and has
now nearly doubled that number.

The Sea Wais.

a very curious anecdOte is told con-
cerning Admiral Bythesea, V. G. c. B.,
who has just retired from the service,
alter having for many years filed the
post of Consulting Naval Officer to the
government of India. 1t is stated that
the Admiral was picked up, when an
infant, far out at sea, lashed to s bale OF
goods. \ lady-presumably his moth
er--was with him, but she was dead
and there was no evidence of any kind
by which the name of the waif could be
traced. The officers of the man-of-war
which picked up the little infant did all
they could by advertisement and inqui-
ry to discover his relatives, and finding
all their attempts futile, they determined
to adopt the child, to whom they gave
the name of "By the Sea- lie was
sent to a naval school, and, when old
enough, Joined the navy. BY happy
coincidence the first ship he served in
was the one which had saved his life as
an infant. He took to his profession,
and during the Crimean War distin-
guished himself at the Island of Wardo,
where he earned the Victoria Cross and
the decoration of the c. B. La.er on
his services in India gave him the COM
panioaship OF the Order of the Indian
Empire, and he now retires from the
rank Of Admiral-ac consummation little
dreamed of by the kind heated officers
who rescued and educated him.

Teach Your Bows.

Teach them that true lady may be
found in calico quite as frequent as in
velvet.
Teach them that a common school,
with common sense, is better than Il
college education without it.
Teach them that one good, honest,
well-mastered trade, is worth dozen
beggarly professions.
Teach them that honesty is the best
policy that it is better to be poor than
to be rich on the profits of crooked
whiskey, and point your precept by the
examples of those who are now suffer-
ing the tOrments of the damned.
Teach them to respect their elders
and themselves.
Teach them that as they expect to be
men some day, they cannot too soon
learn to protect the weak ones.
Teach them by your own example
that smoking in moderation, though the
least of vices to which men are heirs, is
disgusting to others and hurtful to
themselves.
Teach them that God is no respecter
OF the sex, and that when He said this
He meant it for them as well as their
sisters.
Teach them that by indulging their
depraved appetites in the worst form of
dissipation they are not fitting them
selves to become the husbands of pure
girls.

Over Confidence.

Hawkeye.
Don't be over confident, young man.
Don't carry your pet hobby too far.
Take note of the shoulders and legs of a
man before you sass him. Out here on
West Hill there is goat that for three
long years has butted everything and
everybody the broad empire of Burling-
ton could send against him. He ate the
circus bills before the paste was drv,
and when the agent had demonstrated
with him, the goat just stood up and
crowded him through the bill stand. He
once upset a hay wagon jammed his
he; through wood shed and flatten-
ed an officer up against brick house
And one day he wandered down into a
saw mill and butted the fly wheel--only
once. When he came back his neck was
bent. He couldn't make a dent in q
sack of meal now. Young man, be con-
tent with reasonable victories. Some
day, you too may run against a fly
wheel.

Few persons have any idea Of the
cost of legislation. 1t matters not
whether Congress is in session or on a
vacation, the expenses are nearly the
same. The sum of $1,630,00O is re-
quired to pay the salaries of the men,
bers of the House and their mileage. In
addition to this the last House voted
itself $l25 for each member for newspa-
pers and postage stamps, making an ad-
ditional $37,725. The Clerk disbursed
on account of salaries to stationery en-
ployes 1921, ,499 last year, exclusive of
$4,000 which the Treasury Depart
ment paid direct to the stenographers.
During a recess the persons who receive
compensations are only about 100 less
than at other times. The cost for the
Senate is about 100000 a year, nearly
100000 going for salaries and mileage,
and the remainder being divided among
the employees. Contrary to the general
opinion, an extra session of Congress
costs but very little money, because
nearly all the employees are paid whether
Congress sits or not.

Predictions Strangely Verified.

Washington spec. to Cincinnati Commercial.

of the curious veriic4tions of predic-

The Preacher Had the Drop,

n Red Gulch m uer with Il single $50

Black Run, Col. He was told to con-
tribute whataver he chose, whereupon
he said he'd chip in dollar and pro-
ceeded to take $40 change. The deacon
softly replied that no change was given.
A struggle ensued, the plate was upset
and the congregation were in the act of
dumping the deacOn's claim" when
the minister, an old Californian, leaned
over the pulpit with large navy re-
volver and observed: 'The brethren
will please take notice that I've got the
drop on them, and any brother who de-
clines to go to his seat or who touches
any of that money will have funeral
