Ancient Miners Tools.
A.s-ran ILL.,.

The miners in the Silver Belt mine
Wednesday made a remarkable discov-
cry, showing that the mine was worked
ages ago. The ten foot bonanza, recently
uncovered, continuing to widen at every
stroke of the pick, left an overhangiDg
wall on one side, that appeared more like
loan than the ordinary wall or vein mat
ter of quartz ledge, and so soft that it
caved in such way as 10 obstruct the
work. They then went up above the
cave, and decided to run down on the
ledge in a new place, SO as to
get under the cave, in order to
have solid ground to work on, and
in cleaning away place to start in they
found lying on the ore, on top Of the
ledge, IN the soft loan, three feet from
the surface, five stone hammers, such as
arc found in the ancient ruins and aban-
dOned mines of the Aztecs all over the
country, showing clearly that the silver
belt has been worked in pre- historic
times. This is the first and only indica-
ton that has been found that the
BELT was ever disturbed before
the present owners uncovered it.
Dan ThOrne, this morning, exhibited
one Of the hammers, which miner had
broken in order to see the quality of the
stone Of which it was made. The mate
rial Is dark, tough. slaty looking rock.
such as the ancients used in making
all their hammers and axes.

A New Variation of HydrOphObia.

A boy lately died at the Sainte Eugene
Hospital, Paris, of hydrophobia. His
saliva, taken four hours after death, has
been found by NJ. Pasteur to have re-
markable properties, causing what ap-
pears to be new disease. Two rabbits
Immediately inoculated with the saliva
diluted died in about thirty six hours.
Other rabbits we're inocu!ated with the
saliva or with the blood of the first, and
death ensued even more rapidly. The
process was several times repeated, and
with like effects. The animal in five or
six hours loses appetite, afterwards be-
comes weak and paral, zed, and at length
dies of asphyxia The windpipe is a
good deal congested and shows hemor-
rhage. There is also swelling of the
ganglions on either side, and of the groin
and axili9, etc. M. Pasteur has observ-
ed in the blood of the inoculated
animals a small organism or mi
crobe, which (by his method of
artificial cultivation) he fluids good
reason to regard as the agent of the
maiady. 1t is a very short rod, slightly
contracted about the middle A sort of
aureola appears round it, probably due
to the mucous substance It is some.
what like the microbe of chicken chol.
era, but differs entirely in its effects.
Fowls inoculated with it are not in the
least affected 1t is further singular that
while the rabbit is always so quickly
killed by the effect of incubation, the
guinea-pig, so closely related to the rab
bit, retains its vigor and appetite weeks
after incubation. Whether there
may not in this case be a long incuba-
ton of the virus remains sab JUDGE.
The new malady seems thus far, distinct
from rabies in the absence of the usual
incubation. the nature Of the anatomical
Lessons and the transmission by inocula
ton with the blood of the dead animal.
Fuither, dogs inoculated with the boys
saliva died in few days without pre-
senting rabid symptoms. M. Pasteur,
however, thinks it would be rash to
affirm the absolute independence of the
two disorders; and if rabies may be at
tributed to the presence of a miscro-
scOpic organism some hope may be of
fered that science may find means of
alternating the action OF that terrible
malady.

Farmers are busy preparing and planting.
Several Of our best farmers have planted their
crops of corn, and are preparing for planting
cotton. Our farmers have been busy during
the winter. clearing new lands and repairing
fences. large amount of cotton was made
last year in this vicinity, and a good profit was
realized. Much more cotton is being planted
this year than last. So far as we know, all our
farmers have been abb to procure supplies for
the year. and should their effort be blessed,
we think in a few years the credit system will
be alb liShed. Farmers heretofore have been
payirg an enormous per cent on their sup

to lie sure, would be a good investment for
capitalists and a blessing to the farmer.

ALMOST IN ASHES.
Destructive Fire In CamIlIa-LOss
Nearly 100000.

CAMILLA, GA, March 10.-ThiS town was
visited at an early hour this morning by q
most disastrous conAagratIon, which de6ed
the efforts Of the citizens. So extensive are
the losses, that with the serious fire Of Janu-
ary 1st, the business Of the town is, for the
time, practically annihilated.
The commencement of the fire is sup
posed to have been at about 2:15 this morn
ing. When it was discovered, about half
an hour later, it had made such rapid pro-
gress that it was beyond the most sanguine
hope of control.
Seeing that any effort to extin9uish the
merciless flames would prove ludicrously
futile, all set gallantly to work to remove
the merchandise aud other Yaluables from
the buildings now in ashes.
80 rapidly did the flames leap from build
Ing to building that it was utterly impossi-
bic to save much Of anything.
The fire originated in the end Oh j. H.

the work OF an ineendiarY.
The loss is approximated in the following
statement, viz: Butler q Turner's loss

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
The Victim of a LOng-StandIng Re-
venge-kIIlIng That Recalls the
AnGt-MRsOnIe Excitement.
Philadelph.a Press.


In 1926 William Morgan was a good
fornothing tailor in the town of Bata-
via. Western New York. He had be-
lOnged 10 the Order of Free Masons,
and it became known that with the as
sistance of country editor he was pre-
pairing an expose of the secrets of the
Order. Morgan suddenly disappeared
and it was said was drowned in
Lake Ontario. The people of this
day can have but little idea of
the excitement this case caused. There
was almost rebellion in New York and
the affair gave rise to the formation of
the auti-Masonic party, which polled
IS, 600 votes in New York State in 1928,
20, 600 in 1929, and 1913, 900 in 1880. The
Presidential candidate of the party car
red Vermont in 1882 and defeated the
Clay ticket in Ohio and New jersey. In
this State the party almost elected David
Ritner Governor in 1882, and did elect
him in 1885. At the time of the Morgan
excitement James L. ellis was promi-
nent Free Mason in Western New York,
and, with others, was charged with the
murder OF Morgan. He was tried for
the crime but was acquitted.
Judge ellis had almost forgotten the
prominence that was given him in the
Morgan matter, when, few years ago,
one of his sons, Ridgeway Gillis, was
called to the door of his fathers Iowa
residence and assassinated. No clue
could be found to the perpetrator of the
deed, nor could any reason whatever be
given for its commission, and it has ever
since remained an Questionable mystic
ry. Now an exactly similar fate has
metJudge ellis other son, Charles. One
evening last week father and son
were seated in the parlor of
their Mount Pleasant home when
a low knock was heard at the door.
Charles ellis got up and opened the
door. The Judge heard a few words of
low conversation, and then a ringing
pistol shot, cry of pain from his son,
and heavy fall. Sick and trembling,
Judge ellis rose to his feet and, stag.
gering into the hall, saw his son living
bleeding on the floor, shot through the
heart. He cried for help, and that mo.
lnent his sons wife, who had been out
few minutes on an errand, ran into the
house and stumbled over the dead body
other husband. The assassin was gone,
and there is little possibility of discover
ing him.
The murdered man was not known to
have any enemies AS in his brothers
case, there was no apparent motive for
the crime, and the murderer did his
work with the same deadly certainty and
escaped There must have been some
terrible incentive for these two brutal
murders, and many of Judge Gillis
friends in the East firmly believe the
tragedies have a connection with the
celebrated Morgan murder or abduction
of fifty five years ago. Many believe the
friends of Morgan are visiting vengeance
on the head of the venerable Judge Gil
lis half a century after his supposed
connection with that affair by numbering
his sons.

The Chinese Treaty in China.

All the terms of the Chinese treaty
with the United States were not pub
lished in the American papers. One sig-
Dificant stipulation is that no United
States citizen is to be allowed 10 deal in
opium, nor any United States vessels to
carry it. There is only one United States
steamer trading on the coast Of China
now, so that it is an innocu-
Gus stipulation for the citizens
OF the great republic. while it
suits the Chinese In making treaties
the Chinese have usually had hobby.
For instance, in the treaty with Spain
the Chinese introduced clause that only
salaried consuls were TO be appointed,
and every subsequent treaty contained
similar clause. Now every treaty is to
have CLAUSE about opium, and another
about Chinese coolies. The first may go
on very well until they have question
with Great Britain, when we fancy there
will be a difficulty. The second has
been inserted in more than one treaty,
the Brazilian, we suspect. 1t is intend
ed to benefit the Chinese Merchants
Steam Navigation Company proba-
bly, more than the coolies. We may
remark that we have been in possession
of the foregoing information for some
time from our Pekin correspondent, but
we were not at liberty TO publish it until
the rest of the information, lately re-
ceived from America, was published
in some other quarter. The treaty, as a
whole, may be looked upon as farce,
and was intended probably as an cleo.
tioneering move. II abolishes the Bur
lingame convention, and allows the
United States to do as they please about
Chinese immigrants.
