THE FUNDING BILL.
ton.

The funding bill has passed both
branches OF Congress, and now only
awaits the Presidents signature to be-
come law. It's provisions reduce the
rate Of interest on government bonds to
three per cent. on bonds which are to
run for twenty years, with tho right
reserved TO the government TO redeem
them at any time after five years. These
bonds are to he placed upon the mar.
kct to raise money with which to cancel
the rapidly maturing bonds Of the gov.
ernment, which now bear higher rate.
Another provision of the bill, and one
which is relied upon to insure the sale of
these bonds to certain extent, is one
requiring national banks to deposit them
by the first Of July next with the Treas.
lrer az security for their circulation.
This is Democratic measure, and for it's
success or failure that party will be held
responsible. II is bold financial
movement, and has the endorsement of
leading financieri and bankers through.
out the country. If successful, i. will
place the credit OF this country ahead of
any other in the world, for its bonds
will float at lower rate than those of
any other nation. This action of the
government: will likely give a new stimu-
lus to all investments in various enter
prises which promise better interest than
three per cent. 1t will, therefore, be
seen that much money which has hith-
crto been put in United States bonds
will go into railroads, manufactures and
other enterprises. which will not only
advance tho interest of investors, but
also develop the corntry. The result of
this new government loan will be TO de.
c!ease the amount of .ierest which the
government will have t. pay, and ut the
same time throw large amount of capi-
tel that is now silent into active circula.

Papa Don't Bury Me Deep.,

In the Spring of 1860 little girl
died OF consumption in Frederick City,
aged eight years three months. A
few days before she died she called her
father to her bedside and said, "Papa,
when | die don't bury me deep-not
more than 50 Deep" holding up her
tender and emaciateu arm and meas
uring from her shoulder out. "Oh, it
is SO hard to be put down so deep in
the cold, damp ground, and please
don't place any marble slab on nv
grave, it will be so dark under it; and
will press so heavy on my little breast,
Sod my grave nicely, and plant tree
at my head, so that the wild birds can
gather in its branches and sing for me.
But it seems to me | would rather
have our own birds sing for me than
the wild birds. Couldn't you let little
brother Willie and sister Emma bring
our cage of little birds ont to the cem-
etery every Sunday morning and leave
them to sing for me all day? When
you are all at church in town it won't
seem so lonesome out by myself" A
few days after this Anna died, and her
atfectionate parent did everything she
requested. She was buried shallow.
the grave nicely sodded and tree
planted at it's head. Aud still every
Sunday morning Willie and Emma can
he seen going out to the cemetery with
their cage of little birds to Anna's
grave?

II don't see what they want to salt
a claim for" said a meek-eyed tender
foot. "and | don't understand how they
do it."
"Well, you see, a hot season like
this they have to salt the claim lots of
times to keep it. A fresh claim is
good enough for tenderfoot, but the
old-timers won't look at anything but
a picked claim. You know every
claim has quartz. Some more and
some less. You find out how many
quartz there are, and then put in so
many pounds of salt to the quart.
Wildcat claims require more sat, be-
cause the wildcat spoils quicker than
anything else.
Sometimes you catch sucker too,
and you have to put him in brine pret.
ty plenty or you lose him. That's one
reason why they salt claim. Then
again, you often grub-stake a mano-
"But what is grub-stake?"
"Well. a grub-stake is stake that
the boys hang their grub on SO they
can carry it. Lots of mining men
have been knocked cold by blow
from grub-stake. What wanted to
say, though, was this: You will prob
ably at first, strike free milling power.
ty, with indications of something else,
Then you will no doubt sink till YOU
strike bedrock, Or true fssure gopher
hole, with traces Of disappointment.
That's the time to put in your salt.
You can shoot it into the shaft with a
double-barreled shotgun, or wet it and
apply it with whitewash brush. If
people turn up their noses at your
claim then, and say it is snide, and
that they think there is something rot
ten In Denmark, you can tell them that
they are clear off and that you have
salted your claim and that you know
is all right"
The last seen of the tenderfoot he
was buying double -barre!ed shotgun
and ten pounds of rock salt. There's
no donbt but mining camp is the

Notes of travel.

Last Friday 1 boarded Lewis train,
Missouri Pacific, and rode all the way
to Americas. There I boarded buggy,
drawn by two mules, and set sail for
Four Mile creek. Rev. ]. Van Voris
was both engineer and fireman on the
mule train. We made twenty miles in
five hours, not very easy. The sun shone
with August fury upon US, and the wind
whirled the dust right into our faces.
On our way we crossed Wright, Rock
and Big John creeks; the Neosho near
the mouth of Four Mile creek, then
drove up Four Mile to point four miles
south of Council Grove. We also drove
by the city of Dunlap.
Four Mile heads up in the hills of
Morris county, runs almost directly east,
and empties into the Neosho about five
miles below Council Grove. The bot.
toms are narrow and fertile. There is a
good deal OF second bottom land on the
north side of the creek. High, rocky
hills press up closely to the creek on
the south side. The creek is sup
ported by springs and affords a good
supply of stock water The herd Law

this year than usual on account of the

stacks of grain and hay and farm build
ings by fire is daily reported. It is
time for the greatest caution. Pipes,
matches and rubbish fires should be
carefully guarded. 1t is the part of WIS.,
dom 10 protect stacks and out-buildings
by blowing u few burrows around them,
so that if fire starts from any cause, the
