puted, the chances of his getting it
are almost as remote as they would
be for drawing lottery prize. 1t is
a poor business at best, and any
young man who can obtain employ
ment in any of the ordinary avoca-
tions OF life, will in the end do better
to keep away from Washington.
One thing worthy of mention in
this connection is the enormous ex-
aggeration of his influence felt by q
newly elected member of Congress.
1t is amusing to observe them when
they make their debut in Washing
ton. Quite number of them have
been about the Capital within the
last month. | saw one the other day
whom had known out West a few
years ago, and who was then regard
ed very ordinary sort of person.
There is nothing about him now ex-
cept his certificate of election by 100
majority, to convince me that Provi-
dence has wrought any great change
in him. But he stands several inches
higher in his stocking feet than for
merly. He met a young man from
his district the other day, and, after
the usual greetings, asked; "What
are you doing here ?" SIN the Pen
sion Office" was the reply. elbow
much do you get ?" "Only 81 900 a
year." The Colonel here grew sud-
denly indignant, and turning upon
his modest constituent he remarked:
This will never do-never do in the
world. Come around and see me,
and will go at once and have you
promoted about $780," No doubt
that young man felt relieved, and at
once telegraphed home and told all
his friends. In short time he will
find some difficulty in getting his
card in to the Colonel, who will learn
in about week that he has bitten
off more than he can masticate, and
hence does not care to face the enc
my's fire, and the youth will keep on
drawing at the rate of 81 900 year
till further notice.

If you will let me have "a little
say" in your valuable paper, /
will endeavor TO publically extend
our most hearty thanks to the
press, the people and particularly
the Lyceum of Martinsburg, for
their kindness to our boys during
their visit to your city.
Our visit, from the time we
jumped off the cars there, until
We hoped on again, was one of
uninterrupted pleasure and fiat
terry. Your Kindness we shall
never forget. l can't forget to
thank that big man who hauled
us up town in that big wagon, to
that big hotel on the corner, where
we steamed up for that big thing
that was to follow. No sooner had
we entered the ball than u stream
of tickling language mat our ear.
They look riga, intelligent, any
way said some fellow as we
lodged through the crowd This
made Us feel good, because WE
bCNGI WNic tpiA any tuiuS lIht
it before. But we didn't mind
this much; it was your pretty
girls that we commenced to gaze
at right away. We learned Only
one fault that they po-sess-they
don't attend to their flower gard
ems. We saw only one little bit
of boquet, and that they gave 10
the little preacher (not the Ki-sel-
wood church preacber). The next
time we will leave our preacher
at home. He gave us each smell
Of his little bunch OF flowers, but
wouldn't let us touch it. This we
wouldn't have minded but oh,
the dreams we had that night,
that caused US to lose so much
sleep. When we think of your
pretty girls, lido thay gst mad
when you call them girls p of how
lavishly we received titles there,
that we never before beat any one
in debate. we returned happy.
Two Of our boys escorted the doc
tors anil preachers to the depot,
but themselves remained to see
the town; they saw it Your SIS
ter paper was unkind for saying
that they remained 10 see the la
dies, siitce they are not that kind
Of boys They say that after the
preachers went home, the ladies
were like some quantities in alge-
bra. unknown, to be found. They
were almost persuaded to turn out
preacher. The boys, | mean.
The Lyceum of Martinsburg
will please accept our warmest
thanks for the continued kindness
received at their hands. The visit
was highly enjoyed. and will long
be rememb cred. At no distant
day in the future, we hope to well
come you to our little mountain
town, when we shall try to make
your visit as pleasant to you, as
you made ours to US.

Buried Treasure Dis
covered.

An interesting discovery has
been made In settling up the es-
tate OF the late Jacob Smeltzer, of
Bell township, near Grecnsburg,
Pa. The administrator has I'M
earthed three pots containing gold
and silver from beneath the hearth
in his Kitchen. The exact amount
has not yet been ascertained, but
it will probably aggregate $40, 900.
His will leaves a farm to each of
bis three sons, and 81 900 each to
three daughters. The existence of
the buried treasure was never sus-
pected by any one. as the old man
never mentioned 1t.

A Stone Baby from Arkam-
AMa.


The Washington Posi- notes the
arrival at the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition of the ''stone baby" recent
ly found In Arkansas. IL was
found near Eureka Springs, about
four feet below the surface of the
earth. while digging well. The
image Is evidently intended to
represent an infant, and il about
twenty-six inches in length and
weighs eighty-five pounds. 1t is
made of blue limestone, and Is
cut very skilfully, the proportions
of the human body being main
tanned very exactly. The micro
scope, however, shows no traces
of tools. The hand, which IL
crossed on the breast, has very long
fingers and resembles the hand OF
a monkey. When discovered it
was encased Ia composition of
blue clay, calcareous mari, with
carbonate of lime. II was brought
to Washington by MIR. w. G. Rem.
frow, OF Russellville, Arkansas,
who wished to have scientists de-
termine, If possible. by whom it
had been made. 1t has proved
perfect puzzle to the scientific men
at the Smithsonian, and Mr.. Rem
frow proposes to take it to the
Academy at Philadelphia. The
supposition Is that It Is the work
OF some ancient race of people,
probably the ancient Aztecs of
Mexico, who left IL there In their
progress towards the south.
