A Detective Story.

A singular story is told at the expense
of Philadelphia detectives by CORE
spondent of the New York Post. It ap-
pears that q lad in Philadelphia was
sent by his employers to collect bill
of S65.S5. He collected the sum, took
it home, and fearing burglars, hid it
under the carpet in the dining room.
The next morning the bills could not
be found. No other member of the
family had seen the money, and what
boy went to the store and reported the
loss. An officer whom it is now known
has been receiving "hush money" from
criminals was sent to the house, and
after studying the spot where the $65. S5
had been concealed, charged the mother
and father of the boy with stealing it,
and stated that unless it was restored
within twenty-four hours they would
be arrested. Rather than have trouble
about the matter the father paid the
firm the sum that had been lost. The
following night the father heard noise
in his sons room, and upon going into
the apartment found the boy upon the
floor with roll OF bills in his hand.
Upon investigation the money was found
to be the S65.S5. The boy was SON.
nambulist, and perhaps while dreaming
of the concealed treasure, had risen from
his bed, descended to the dlning-room,
and removing the money from beneath
the carpet, carried it up stairs and
placed it beneath the mating of his bed

How Senatorial Secrets Leak Ont.

That body, writes Washington cor
respondent, is composed of seventy
six old men. We have the maxim of
''garrulous age," and it applies to the
Senate as to all other collections of
grandfathers. Moreover, the Senate
does not keep secret because it never
has. When Senator comes to Wash
ington he is astonished to find the
sworn proceedings of the cham Der told
to the world before the echoes have al
most died away. He keeps seeing these
reports day after day and year after
year until he accepts it as a matter of
course. In the progress of time he
makes acquaintances among newspaper
men, and finds, perhaps, that it is very
convenient to have friendly relations
with them. He gets in the way of tell
ing them what is gong on. He finds
it mutually serviceable.
This being the case, and knowing very
well that what the Senate does in ex-
ecutive session will be published the
next day, being very well aware that
Senatorial secrecy is q farce, he now
and then gives his newspaper friend a
"point" in executive business. The
newspaper man has friends in his own
guild and they have Senatorial friends.
The reporters put one and one together,
and then two and two together, and the
result is very detailed and often very
correct report of the whole secret. This
is the explanation of what seems to
many an inexplicable and deplorable
lack of honor among the sworn officers
of Government. The proceedings of
caucuses get out in the same way.

The Ancient Mounds.

curious theory has been developed
among the thinking community here,
says Vicksburg, Miss, letter, with re-
gard to the ancient mound builders
that may go far toward solving vexed
problem. 1t appears that these mounds
are now the principal points of refuge
IN all the overfowed districts, not only
for the people but for stock and the
wild animals. The idea advanced is
that the ancient inhabitants who lived
remote from the hill country built these
mounds for the purpose of entrapping
game during the oyerdows, which, of
course, must have been of moro frequent
occurrence and of greater magnitude
than they are at present. 1t is claimed
that the bones and hunting implements
found thereon substantiate this theory !;
but, be this as it may, the fact cannot be
disputed that these works of the mound
builders, which are plentiful through
out the present overfowed districts, are
serving beneficial pur .1ose at present
in preserving both life property.
The only thing against the theory
lies IN the fact that the mounds extend
up into the prairie lands of Ohio and
illinois, all remote from the lowlands c :.
the Mississippi.

Potatoes from Abroad.

Talk about carrying Goals to New
castle. In the windows of the grocery
shops on our populous avenues will be
seen placards bearing the following in
scription: potatoes from Scotland and
Ireland" Cabbages from Holland. "
"Buttel from Holstein." This latter
dairy product, by the way, is said to be
the finest in the world. The Circassia
last week brought over hundred pack
ages of it. 1t is we'll known in England,
where it sells at higher prices than the
American product. No wonder the
belance of trade is against us, when we
are importing vegetables and dairy pro-
ducts from Europe. It is scarcely more
than a year since Mr.. James Caird, after
a visit to this country, advised Scotch
and English agrieulturists to stop grow
ing wheat and turn their attention to
market gardening and dairy products.

A Batch of Reasons.

a great many people cannot under
stand why the female portion of the
community prefer sober men. The
matter is simple enough:
1. Wives like sober husbands because
they can reason with sober man.
2. The sober man is more COM
panionable.
8. Sober men have pride, and pride
is a woman's main hold.
4. Sobriety means comfortable
home.
5. Good clothes for mother and
children.
6. A house of your own.
Z. Evenings at home instead of in o
bar-room.
s. Better health and the enjoyment
of life.
9. An elevated view of life and sense
of your responsibility.
10. You are credit to your wife and
children.
II. People who once despised you
will now bless you.
IL. Your word will be gauged as you
resist the tempter.
13. Young men will pattern after
you.
IA. You will be an ornament to society
and the whole town in which you live.
Is. The whole community will take
pride in you and wish they had more
like you.
16, Your family and friends will ap-
preciate you.
II. Your enemies will admire your
path of sobriety.
Is. Scoffers will be disarmed by your
works.
10, Your many qualities will grow
with your years.

THE FARMER.

From the New York Ledger,l
The king may rule DER land and sea,
The lord may hve right royalty,
The soldier Iide in pomp and pride,
The sailor roam DER ocean wide,
But this, or that, whate'er befall,
The Farmer he must feed them all.
The writer thinks, the poet sings,
The craftsmen fashion wondrous things,
The doctor heals, the lawyer pleads
The miner follows the precious leads,
But this, or that. whateer befall,
The Farmer he must feed them all.
The merchant he may buy and sell,
The teacher do his duty well,
But men may toll through busy days,
Or men may stroll through pleasant ways,
From king to beggar whate'er befall,
The Farmer he must feed them all.
The farmers trade ia one of worth,
Hes partner with TIE sky ana emtn,
He's partner with the sun and rain,
And no man loses for his gain,
And men may rise, or men may fail,
But the Farmer he must feed them ALL
The farmer dares his mind to speak,
He has no gift or place to seek,
To no man living need he bow
The man that walks behind the plow
Is his own master, whate'er befall,
And king or beggar he feeds US all.
God bless the man who sows the wheat,
Who finds us milk, and fruit, and meat;
May his purse be heavy, his heart be light,
His cattle and corn, and all, go right.
God bless the seeds his bands let fall,
For the Farmer he must feed us all.

Scenes Amid the Waters,

Mr.. W. L. Nelson, of the insurance
agency of Nelson & Hanks, of New Or
leans, and Mr.. John King returned from
the southeastern portion of Louisiana.
They report terrible condition of
things existing in that country, not
alone from the effects of The overflow,
but as a consequence of the failures of
the crops for the last two years. The
water from Trips Station to Arkansas
City is from five to fifty feet deep, and
the trip could be made by no other
conveyance than boat. All along the
route could be seen colored people
quartered in the lofts of houses. The
water ran swiftly through the main
rooms, and cats, dogs aud hogs gathered
upon the roofs, while the cattle that had
escaped drowning were standing upon
narrow strips of ground or quartered
upon RATS not far distant. They went
to Monticello from Pine Bluff by rail,
and for five miles the track could not
be seen, being under water to the depth
of four feet. The whole country for
many miles was one vast sheet of water,
and it seemed that nothing could be
expected of it in the future unless the
general government devised some means
and put them into successful operation
for the prevention of overflows. Thou
sands of cattle are drowned, human be-
ings are living like animals, houses are
torn to pieces and knocked from their
foundations, fence rails are floating
around by the thousand. All these cir
cumstances add to the terrible condition
of things that prevailed before the flood,
and make the situation appalling in
deed. But what they saw in the bot
toms between Trips Station, Arkansas
City, though bad enough, was not as
dark as some of the scenes around Rose
dale and Riverton which were related to
them by eye-witnesses.

Sad Incident of the Flood.

Alexander Jasper, an old man from
Crittenden County, arrived in this city
recently, bringing with him his wife
and two boys. He seemed TO be in
great distress, and when questioned by
Gazette man he told the following sad
story:
"You know" he said, "that the
whole country is under water. I am
one of the sufferers of the flood. 1 lived
in the Mississippi bottom, not far from
Madison. settled there several years
ago and opened small farm. 1 had
heard of high water, but the place
where settled seemed to be high, and
1 did not feel any fear. Well, high
water came repeatedly, but it never
reached me. Night before last, while
myself and family were at supper, we
were startled by terrible roar. I
went to the door and looked out but
could see nothing. My wife suggested
that the noise might be caused by
water, but did not pay much attention
to the remark, for I did not see how
water could break through with such
force. While 1 stood listening there
came a mighty rush, and before I knew
it the whole country was flooded with
water. I called to my wife to help me
secure the children. The house was
full of water. 1 seized one little girl,
and my wife seized the other. The
house moved. The lamp fell and was
extinguished. 1 called to my little boy,
and received q strangled reply. 1
rushed through the food to the place
from which the sound came, and called
again, but received no reply. The
house went to pieces. seized my wife
and struggled with her to q slight ele-
vation. The roar was deafening. We
remained there until morning. When
Light came, a rushing torrent swept
over the site of our home. My little
boy was gone. "-LiHle Rock Gazette.

to the fact that my shroud was bought,
the coffin ordered, and the funeral
arranged. They made an excuse, too,
for part of my hair being cut of. They
told me the reason of it was that plaster
had been put on the back of my neck
and my hair got so tangled in it that is
had to be cut away. L didn't say any
thing. One day my little brother said
to me, 'Venie, you was goin' to be
buried last Thursday, and they cut your
hair off. He never imagined that /

nights will never leave me. l pray to

Before your speech Russia enjoyed a

Hard Work for the Princes.

DR.. Richard s. Rosenthal, who has
been tutor to the imperial family of
Austria, is in Boston. He gives an in
teresting account of the studies of the
little princes and princesses, saying:
"At two years of age the imperial
children have French nurses, who talk
nothing else but their own tongue. Thus
a perfect accent is acquired. at the age
of six the child is provided with Ger
man tutor, who is in the society of the
prince or princess half the time; SO the
child adds German TO his French. At
eight years of age an English tutor ap-
pears on the scene; then the child's day
is divided into three parts-one de-
voted to French, one to German, and
one to English. AS soon as the young
archduke is able to enter the officers
school he is provided with a Hungarian
adiutant, who talks tc him continually
in that difficult tongue. In another
year a Bohemian instructor comes on
the stage, and SO on, new languages
being gradually added to the linguistic
stock of the young prince. You will
realize what many-languaged en-
pire 1t is that the Austrian Emperor
rules over, when I tell you that the
Austrian paper forins each contain ten
languages in their printed regulations.
Recently, when the Princess Stephanie,
of Belgium, was betrothed to the Aus
TRAN Grown Prince Rudolph, she had
to take up the study of two of the most
intricate and puzzling languages in the
world, Hungarian and Bohemian, in
order that she might be fitted to assume
her future place as Empress of Austria
Hungary. I assure you that the prin-
cess, who is still studying, has shed
many bitter tears over these languages.
