For some time James Quiniin, II. Rambo
and e. w. Dobbs have been working mine
called the Little Hannah, in what Is known
as the window Mountain district, near Gun

mems, most OF which showed native gold in
large quantities-in fact beautiful mating

assayed this morning and the assay showed
them to contain S3,7f7.19 In gold and s75 10
IN silver to the ton. Experts who have ex-
amined the rock estimate that most OF the
speclmens-which were by the way not
carefully selected-will assay from $4,000
to $4,000 per ton.

A SoMNAMBUusTlC SLIPPER.

In a small village across the bay re-
side a weIl-known clergyman and his
family One of his sons, who is just ap-
preaching manhood, has been in the
habit since Infancy of walking in his
sleep. Every effort has been made to
break him of his SOmnambulistic ten
denotes, but without avail. A short
time ago it was decided by the head of
the house that the sOmnambulist should
occupy the same couch with his elder
brother. and the latter was instructed, in
case the boy INDUCED in any of his for
mer antics, to administer a severe pun
ishment, in the shape of fOrcible appi-
cation OF the sole Oh slipper. The elder
son promised to carry out his instructions
One night, a short time ago, the father
imagined he heard sounds OF disturb
ance in The chicken-yard, at the rear of
the house, and, fearing that his hen
roosU might be Gespoiled, entered Tue
room where the boys were sleeping, and
opening the window, peered Out into the
darkness to ascertain whether his appre-
hegasio2s were currec5 or not.
The elder son thought the
figure at the window was the figure OF
his brother, and forgetting ia his zeal,
to ascertain if his bed-fellOw was repos-
ing quietly or not, leaped from his
couch, seized the ever-ready slipper, and
administered a severe castIgatiUn upon
the party in undress at the window.
Before the astonished father could turn
he had received some four or five heavy
and singing blows, and was so surprised
and astOnished that fOr few moments
he could hardly speak a word. The son,
when he realized the situation, vas all
most paralyzed, and the scene was le-
diculOus in the extreme. When the
Gil cumstances were explained, however,
the clergyman fully appreciated the

like to toy with the moist earth and
the common squash bug of the wOrk-a-
day-world. 1t is pleasure also to irri-
gate the garden, watering the saur
kraut plant and the tinlid tomato vine
as though they were children asking for
q drink. I am never happier than
when am engaged in irrigating my
tropical garden or climbing my neigh
Dor with q hoe when he shuts off my
water supply by sticking an old pair of
pantalooRs in the canal that leads into
my squash conservatory.
One day man shut off my irrigation
that way and damned the water up to
such a degree that I shut off his air
supply, aud was about to say damned
him up also We had quite a scuffie.
Up to that time we had never exchang-
ed a harsh word. That morning
noticed that my early climbing horse
radish and my dwarf army worms were
looking little san revOir, and Won
dered what was the matter. l had
been absent several days and was
grieved to notice that my garden had
kind of ''blase" air, as though 1t need
ed rest and change Of scene.
The Polond China egg plant looked
up sadly at me and seemed to say:
"Pardner, don't you think it's long
time between drinks?" The water
mellon seemed to have dark brown
taste in its mouth, and there was an
air of gloom all over the garden.
At that moment 1 discovered my
next door neighbOr at the ditch on the
corner. He was singing softly to
himself:
'4Oh yes. I'll meet you;
I'll meet you when the sun goes down
He was also jamming az old pair of
Rembrandt pants into the canal.

He stood with his back toward me,
and just as he said he would inject
me when the sun went down. !
smOte him across the back OF the neck
with nay hoe handle, and before he
could recover from the first dumb sur
prise and wonder, pulled the drip
ping pantaloons out Of the ditch and
tied them in a true lovers kIOt aroun
his neck. He began to look black in
the face, and his struggles soon ceased
altogether. at that moment his wife

OVER THE FENCE IS OUT.

In the noisy plays of our boyish days,
AS we batted the ball about,
We had rule, after hours of school,
That ''Over the fence was out
And though we are men, we think now
and then
OF that rule of our childish day;
We feel its force, with a tinge of re-
morse,
In graver matters than play
In struggle and greed, to supply eg'ry
need,
We shorten life's meagre span:
And the gush Of joy in the beardless boy
Is lost in the bearded man.
We rear up false claims, we miss our
best aims,
And 90 down in the noise and rout;
We find out too late, 10y not batting
straight,
That '"Over TIE fence is out.''
We1toil and we dig. we rear ard we rig,
We barter, we venture, we sail3
We bend ev'ry will, we mount ev'ry
hill
Forget we are human and frafl,
Our energies wasted, true bliss untasted,
We are whirled like dead leaves about:
In life's bleak December, too late to re-
Enember
That cover the fence is out -

SAVED THE SAFE.

A dispatch from Greensburg, Pa, re-
ferrlng to the collapse of the Union De-
post bank through the usual rascalitys
says that the safe is about the only asset
left in the bank. If the safe is large and
in a good state of preservation the de-
pOsitors have reason to congratulate
themselves. We would like to know
something about the stove. Nearly all
banks have stoves, but when the officials
start in for plumber they do not always
let the stove escape them. If the wealth
Ell is cold and the stove is kept hot it is
sometimes left to figure in the list of as
sets, buCin warm weather cold stove
is not always over looked. Iron safes
are a little too heavy tor convenient
transportation, and it is on this account
that they are usually left. Besides the
removal of the big safe from banking
house has tendency to arouse suspis-
ion. Speaking of bank smashing, the
Chinese have pleasant habit CT chop
ping off the head of banker who fails
and pitching the severed member over
in the corner along with the safe and the
stove and the other small assets. We
do not advocate the introduction of this
ancient custom into the United States,
but it must be admitted that the Chin
csc are an eminen5ly practical race. and
their banks are usually conducted on
highly conservative principals.-[ New

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.

THE women of Columbus. Mississippi, N
Decoration Day, streWed flowers alike ON n
graves OF the Con federate and of tbs natiOna
soldiers,l
By the flow of the inland river,
Whence the fleets of iron have fed,
Where the blades of grave-grass quiver
Asleep are the ranks of the dead.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the one, the Blue;
Under the other, the Gray.
These in the robings of glory,
Those ia the gloom of defeat,
All with the battle-blood CORY,
In the dusk of eternity meet.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the laurel; the Blue,
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence of sorrowEul hours
The des@late mourners 90:
Lovingly laden with flowers,
Alike for the friend and the foe.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the roses, the Blue,
Under the lilies, the Gray.
So with an equal splendor
The morning sun-rays fall,
With a touch, impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for AID
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
'Broidered with gold, the Blue,
Mellowed with gold, the Gray.
So, when the summer calleth
On forest AMI field of grain,
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip of the rain.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Wet with the rain, the Blue,
Wet with the rain, the Gray.
Sadly. but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done;
In the storm of years that are fading
No Drawer battle was won.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the blossoms. the Blue,
Under the garlands, the Gray.
No more shall the war-cry sever,
Or the winding rivers be red;
They Danish our anger forever,
When they laurel the graves of our dead
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Love and tears for the Blue,
Tears and love for the Gray!

TWENTY-SEyEN YEARS.

The Troy Chief briefly announces that
it has completed its twenty-seventh year
and will, next week, enter upon the
twentg-eighth year of its publication.
This means that, for twenty-Seven years
a clear-headed and intelligent man has
devoted himself, with scarcely a days
intermission, to recording and comment
ing on every event of Importance that
has occurred in the county of DOniphan ;.
and in d general way has discussed all
important events occurring in the state of
Kansas, in the United States IN the world.
1t means that, week by week, ne has
been writing such a history Of his county
and state as never will be written in the
form of book, or any dozen books.
People carelessly destroy newspapers,
and in doing so they are tearing up bet
ter history than Bancroft or Heldreth or
Palfrey has ever written. But to get
back to our neighbor; while the work of
the chronicler and annotater has been
going on, the current Of American liter
ature has been carefully followed, and
much of value, most of value, we may
say, both OF prose and poetry has been
brought ashore. In these twenty-seven
years there have been many cOntrOvers-
les, in which line of business our coten-
poraTy has the name of being a ''bad
man - but we have yet to meet the
man who would tell us that he really and
truly hated Sol. Miller. That is better
luck than falls to most of US in twenty
seven years = AtchisOn Champion.
