There are comparatively few jewels stored
in the treasury vaults at Washington, and
how these jewels came there no one can tell
Among the valuables is an old sword with
jeweled hilt and golden chain No one
can tell to whom it belonged, but it is a relic
OF the revolution, and was probably captured
and given TO the government, but locked up
with the treasures instead of being sent TO the
museum. There are two or three small
bottles filed with precious stones, but these
are sealed up and no one knows their value.
They may be stage jewels for all the keep

are kept IS a curious old bottle containing at

Had n Coed Time.

When Mr.. A. Usina left for New York
a few weeks since, he purchased q round
trip ticket via the Charleston line, but
after getting 10 the metropolis he took
notion to come back by rail, and dis
posed OF his ticket to a scalper. The
scalper in order to make things work
straight, required Toney TO leave his bus
mess card, so that it could be given to
whoever might purchase the ticket. 1t
was not long before n little, short, red
headed man walked into the scalper's
office and asked for ticket to Palatka,
when Toney's was sold him. The fellow
got along all right until after he left
Charleston. When he presented Toney's
ticket to Purser Morgan, of the steam
ship City OF Monticello, who happened
to be an acquaintance of Toneys, that
officer asked:
us your name A. Usina:'
Yes, sir, replied the tourist.

ser.
''At Palatka."
"What do you do there:"
"Well, I'm In business down there.

The bill Of Race & Martin, for repairing
the hose cart, amounting to $40. was re-
turned for the approval of The Chief of
the Fire Department
The bill of Judge w. II. Wigg was re-
ferred to the Mayer for approval, the
amount of the same being $50.
Mr.. VIM. +. Forward, in speaking OF
the sewerage question, said that the
Council had been a little premature in
ordering a preliminary survey, and
thought that it would be better to have
a survey made under the direction of a
sanitary engineer, as an ordinary street
survey would not facilitate the matter at
all, as il would not aid in getting bids
for the sewers. In accordance with this
view, he offered a motion that the Street
Committee be empowered to employ n
competent sanitary engineer, and that
he be required to make a suitable sur
vey of the city. The resolution was
unanimously passed.
AIr. Forward offered an ordinance
amending the ordinance granting the
right to build a wharf at the foot of
Main street, and the right of way TO
other streets, so that the railway com
pany would be restricted TO the use OF
Main street and its right to the streets
north of that rescinded.
The Council then adjourned until next
Monday night.

Cheered a Warriors Mind,

General Sherman, in his memoirs,
says: 81 can see in memory beautiful
young city bred lady, who had married
a poor second lieutenant and followed
him to his post on the plains, whose
quarters were in 'dug-out' ten feet by
about fifteen, seven feet high, with a
dirt roof; four feet of the walls were
of the natural earth, the other three of
sod, with holes for windows and corn.
sacks for curtains. This little lady had
her Saratoga trunk, which was the
chief article of furniture; yet, by means
of a rug on the ground floor, few
candle boxes covered with red cotton
calico for seats, a table improYised out
of barrel head and fire place and
chimney eXcavated in the back wall or
bank, she had transformed her 'hole in
the ground into a most attractive home
for her young warrior husband, and she
entertained me with a supper consisting
of the best of coffee, fried ham, cakes
and iellies from the commissary, which
made on my mind IN impression more
lasting than have any one of the hun
dred magnificent banquets l have since
attended in the palaces and mansions of
our own and foreign lands"

A Trick that Failed.

If the following story is not true, the
responsibility rests with Mr.. William H.
Harley, the contractor who is building
the main editice of the new Soldiers
and Sailors Home at Quincy, for he
vouches for its truth, says the Chicago
NeecS. Mr.. Kuhn, the proprietor of
Kuhn's Garden, was thrifty in money
matters, but cared little for his own
personal appearance. He had worn the
same old greasy overcoat until his sons
were ashamed of him, and tried to in
duce him to buy new one.
"Oh, no." the old gentleman would
always say: 80 would rather have the
$50 that it would cost"
One day the Sons determined that he
should wear new coat, and, believing
that if he could get one at a good bar
gain, he would buy it, arranged with a
tailor to sell him a $50 one for $40. they
to pay the difference. Then they went
home and told their father what hand
some coat they had seen, and what a
bargain it would be to buy it. So the
father went and looked at it, and, after
beating the tailor down to SO, took it
and started for home.
But when he reached home he had no
coat with him.
Didn't you buy the coat, father2"
eyes; got it for So" replied the old
gentleman.
Where is itl''
"Oh, was showing it to a friend in
the street car, and when he offered me
SIS for it let him have it. cleared
Sc on the transaction"
Mr.. Harley assured us that the young
men never tried to play that trick on
the old father again.
