Mr.. T. J. Fuller is q respectable and wealthy
farmer, living near Jackson, Tenn. During

yard. The money rested securely In lis hiding

fully determined to let II remain In liz grave
beneath the sod until he wanted to use II. II
was rumored throughout the country that there
we're buried treasures on his place, and spscu-
latiye minds began the work Of securing the
money. On the night Of March 30 certain par
ties went TO the homestead of Mr.. Fuller for
the purpose Of securing the gold. In the dead
Of night they began search. BY some means
they found the money was located in the front
yard, and by sticking small iron rod into the
ground at different points, they at last struck
the right spot A pick and shovel soon un-
covered the aiming dollars. Three holes we're
dug. each yielding rich returns, and poeketing
the money the robbers silently stole away. The
next morning Mr. Fuller was Mortified to see
that his yard had been torn aS with pillow, and
that the thief had come In the night and taken
away his treasure. Sixteen thousand gilded
gods had left their hiding place forever.
Mr.. Fuller, bent with years, knew hardly
how to proceed to regain his lost fortune. He
communicated his loss TO friends, but for sew
eral days nothing was done. At last Mr. J. Il.

Of Mr.. Fuller determined 10 work on the case
Their suspicious rested on several parties,

INDIAN CANAL VILLAGES.
picturesque Scenes In Mexico-Ths
FandapgO.

picturesque Scenes in Mexico-Ths
Fandango.
For half mile on either side of tho
grand canal the country Is threaded
with perfect network Of smaller ca
malls, which lead away the water for ir-
tigation purposes. Each little garden
plot is an island, and it Is impossible to
no anywhere except in canoe. A
Stranger would lose himself at once in
TINS labyrinth of water courses, but the
native glides in and out, and comes and
goes, in his little skiff, happy in his ma
tive element, and filling the canals and
shaded water courses with life and an
imation.
The scene on the grand canal in the
early morning is picturesque and full of
interest. From hundred side streams
suddenly appear crafts of all descrip-
tons. loaded down to the waters edge
with vegetables and flowers. An In
dian, with single paddle, sits in the
stern of each canoe and propels it
swiftly and skillfully along through tho
myriad crafts toward the city. This
person Is often woman, and her black
hair floats out behind her as she bends
over her paddle, and her white teeth
flash as she laughs and answers merri-
ly to the halls of her companions in the
other boats: Sometimes; if the canoe
Is large one, the vegetable man takes
his whole family on board, and while he
stands up in the stern and paddles his
craft along, his spouse sits forward
and nurses her dusky little ones, or ar
ranges the vegetables and flowers for
market. On feast days and flower fes-
rivals the scene is full of beauty. Ev-
cry Indian twines wreath about his
hat, the women and children deck
themselves with flowers, and the fleet of
boats comes down the stream with its
occupants singing, and-on the large
boats-dancing the jarabe at the bows.
The jarabe, more Familiarity known
as the fandango, is the favorite dance
of the native Mexicans. A man and
woman stand opposite to each other
or if the women are scarce, the men
pair off-and dance, or rather stamp, a
kind of smothered shuttle, which is
neither clog dance nor reel. The
dancers do not need much space to exc
cute it successfully, and hence the large.
fat-bottomed freight boats, which ply
between the city and Chalcc, afford am
pie accommodations for their simple
revels. The music on these occasions
is usually harp and bandolin, the
latter being an instrument much like
the guitar, with twelve metal strings,
and the dancers generally chime in
their voices, making wild chorus,
which, once heard, can never be for
gotten. There can be nothing more
picturesque than fleet of these noisy,
fower-decked boat people out for a
feast-day lark.-OUerIand.
