At revival in Rocky Hollow
Deacon Budd arose to relate his
experience, and gave himself a very
hard name indeed, although he
well knew, and so did every
body else, that he did not deserve
the half of it. But it was the style
of the saints to give themselves a
setting down for the benefit of the
sinners, and brother Budd played
it for all it was worth.

said, in conclusion, "I'm sech a
pore, mis'able sinner that it's a
wonder the Lord has marcy on me

this, and my place is in the corner
behind the door"
Sister Briney, who was a widow,
and suspected of fondness for the
widower, Deacon Budd, arose and
told her story, and a sad one it was.
There had never been such an
utterly unworthy object, such a
continual monument of mercy, as
sister Briney, if her showing up of
herself was to be taken for truth.

of modern "sassiety" is followed
everywhere by solemn foot
man who has never been known to

an acquaintance of the Bostonian

said. 'By the way, my dear boy,
what do you keep that servant
tagging after you for? He doesn't
seem to be of any use.'
"You are yery-aw-much mis-
taken," drawled the exquisite. l
-aw-I couldn't get along without
him-couldn't really" and he took
out his cigarette case. "Light!'
The man stepped up and unbutton-

The President is indignant al
the versatile freedom of the press
in discussing his alleged approach
ing marriage. II am not going to
say a word in the matter, but LET
you 60 on in your own way until
you get tired of dragging the name
of poor, defenscless girl into cruel
publicity" said the President to a
correspondent who asked him the
query about which there is now so
much information extant.
"Is the President engaged?"
Mr.. Cleveland sat in the bay
window of his executive office, clad
in suit of black clothes, a black
silk tie about his stand-up collar,
which was slightly frayed on the
edges. The President certainly
did not look like a happy expect

expression of countenance that
the red hues of anger that settled
around his neck did not tend to
render more cheerful. The sky
was slightly overcast. Their were
two working politicians waiting to
see him on a distant sofa. A
young woman sat on chair not
far away, and a day-before-yestcr-
day-boquet threw out malodors on
the desk in front ofhim.
"These reports" he resumed,
"are a shame and an outrage upon
all the privacies and decencies of
life, and the press should find
something better to do than to be
pitching into an unprotected girl in
this brutal way. Last week it was
a lady stopping in the house.
Next week it will be some other
poor girl. Why do you not accord
to your president the privileges you
do to the laborer earning fifty cents
a day? The President should have
some rights of privacy you might
respect. Your class give me none.

McKim is an honest Irish miner,
who drifted off from Arizona a few
years ago into Sonora. He had a
little money, but great deal of
faith. Benham says: Il should
say here that every mine that has
been worked in Sonora, or, indeed,
anywhere else in Mexico, has its
early history recorded in the arch
ives in the district. Thus, if a
claim has laid idle half a century,
and one wants to get its record, he
has only to get the perfect or local
authority of the district, and he is
given access to the huge volumes
that contain the information. Nc
Kim got hold of a claim that
hadn't been worked for twenty
years, and studied up its history.
He found that the last year it was
worked it took three shifts of eight
men to pack the water out of the
mine. He also found that the
water increased so fast on them
that the mine had to be abandoned,
and from that he argued it was by
no means exhausted. The problem
then was to get the water out. But
how? McKim had no money to
put up pumps, but he did have a
good deal of courage and strong
arm. He went down the hill and
resolved to run a tunnel to the
mine, to strike the ledge below the
water pocket. Nearly five years
ago McKim began to work, and for
long years has pegged away at that
tunnel. He had fully GOO feet to
run. For about year McKim had
a brother Irishman to help him,
but the latter got weary of the
hopeless task, and for the remain
ing time McKim went it alone.
About a year ago he noticed that
the face Of the tunnel was in moist,
crumbly ground, and he got fearful
that it would tumble in on him.
He didn't go near the tunnel for
several days for he was afraid of it.
One morning he went up and found
the water pouring out of the tun-
mel like mill race. The water
pocket had broken through and the
tunnel was draining the old mine
at the rate of 1000 barrels a min
ute. McKim was beside himself
with joy. In week he explored
the mine thaough the old workings,
and he found almost bed Of pure
silver. Actually, he cut out cabi-
net specimens with a chiscl. He
sacks and ships the ore, and the
little property is turning out
100000 a year with no other labor
than that of McKim and two
Yaqui Indians. So much for patti
ent industry and four years of faith
and hard work. Chicago Herald.
