An Opium Den in Paris.

Opium dens are common enough in
the east end of London; but few estab-
lishments of the kind exist in Paris,
although some Bohemian" artists IN
Montmartre tried lately to found So
ciety OF ''hashish" consumers, who were
really opium eaters. 1t has been re-
served, however (the London Daily Tel
egraph's correspondent says), for an en-
terprising Japanese to "run" fully ap-
pointed opium den in Paris. He opened
his establishment in the rez-de-chaus-
sic or ground floor of n block of build
ings in the Avenue de la Grande-Ar-
NEE, and the den was beautifully deco
Grated with oriental carpets, tapestry,
ottomans, and lounges, with little squat
deities and idols presiding over all.
Hither came dozens of g the landlord g
countrymen and Chinese, of whom there
is not an inconsiderable colony in Paris.
The almond-eyed orientals were thor
oughly satisfied and smoked and gur-
gled every night until they were as
rabbits under the influence of the tre-
panning operation. The landlord was
reaping a rich harvestsMhen in an evil
moment he bethoughts himself Of adding
to the attractions of his establishment
by employing therein batch of
pipeuse or brasserie .nymphs.
These occidental plpeuses and
also 'pipe-fillors," were not, how
ever, so honest as their congeners in the
east, for no sooner did they find their
customers wrapped in the fantastic
dreams caused by the opium fumes than
they picked their pockets and annexed
their watches. One of the smokers,
who had lost large sum of money in
this way, complained to the police, who
have since closed the den and arrested
tb landlord and his decoy ''ducks."

The Oldest Twins in the United states

The Oldest living Twins In the United
States, says the Philadelphia Record,
were born in this century in Phiiadel-
phia county. Their names are John
and Samuel Nice, and they bear such
resemblance to each other that it is al
most impossible to distinguish them
apart. One resides In Germantown and
the other in Jenkintown. They were
born on May IL 1905. They both learned
cabinet-making and in 1928 theyopened
an undcrtakers establishment mt the
corner Of Main street and Washington
avenue, Germantown, and remained
there until the close OF the civil war.
They have long since retired from active
business pursuits.
Both men have married twice, both
are widowers aud each has the same
number of descendants. Within the
past few years they have become quite
deaf. They enjoy comparatively good
health, and are as active as men in the
prime of life. Neither has ever used
tobacco in any form or tasted OF liquor.
This, they claim, is the cause of their
long life. Besides being the Oldest
twins they believe that they are the
Oldest undertalers in the country and
to have owned the oldest burial. estab-'

men spent long time, wrapped In our

more frightened at the lion than at the

the man for protection, or whether they,
by some subtle instinct, had recognized
the mans fears, and had come to his as

each others terror, formed n ia cit NUT

that ended as soon as the danger was

Mississippi Gold,
TOBY.


The people at Friar's Point, Miss, are
much excited over the discovery of hid
ded treasure, and crowds are out digging
as if the town we're a gold mine. Yester-
day morning when the steamer Belle
Memphis arrived at the town the passen-
gers saw a fsherman's two little sons
grnbbing in the loose loan a hundred
yards below the wharfboat. Soon after
ward the boys rushed up to their father
at the landing, and showed them several
dingy pieces of metal that they had
found. The fisherman saw that they
we're twenty dollar gold pieces, and ran
to the place and began digging: The
passengers on the boat followed, and the
spot was soon alive with eager miners
Pocket knives, parasols and fingers were
the tools used. and they yielded rich
return. The fisherman got about 5000, q
lady passenger secured $500, and other
people got smaller sums, the whole
amount aggregating several Thousand
dollar and all in twenty dollar gold pieces
bearing date of 1859 and 1860.
The money was buried early during
the war by somebody unknown. Severa
wars ago, a veal thy planter spent abOu
| $4,000 in excavations on MOntezuma Bar
| some distance above Friar's Point to fine
a treasure that was supposed to be buried
| there. He failed in his attempt, bu
| managed to furnish another channel fol
| the river at that point.

joying great prosperity. and if they
can earn such large profits, how
much better ought southern mills,
which have the raw material at
their very doors, be able to do.
The quarterly reports of the Fall
River mills show that for the first
three months of the year every mill
declared a dividend. The smallest
was II per cent, or at the rate OF
6 per cent. a year, and from that
the figures ranged up to 6 per cent.
or a per cent. a year, two mills
paying this, while a number paid 3
per cent, 4 per cent, and one b
per cent. The average tor 80 mills,
with a capltal OF SIS, 100000, was
2.71 per cent, or at the rate Of 10
"a per cent, a year. The deman d
for goods is reported in excess OF
the supply. The South can regard
these figures with much satisfaction,
for they give a hint of the posi- bili-
ties OF this industry in that section.
Suppose that the New England
people had the raw material at
their door as we have with such a
stream as Spring Greek, with sufi-
cient fall and power to run almost
any machinery. How long would
it be idle? We must wake up TO
our own interest and keep pace
with the balance of the world.

concourse Of people assembled to witness
the annual celebration of the Lords snip
per and feet washing by the Primitive
Baptists of that church. The house being
TOO small to accommodate the people it
was thought best to go to the grove and
have preaching. The services were be-
gan by singing, and a few salutatory re-
m arks and prayer by Elder Joe Sammons.
Then ElderWiIey Sammons after inform
ing the audience that he preached with
out money or price, took his text "COm-
mon and Eternal Salvation" and deliver
ed a very able sermon quoting a great
many passages of scripture. A short in
Permission followed and the people again
assembled at the sound OF singing. After
prayer, the church then proceeded to par
take of the Lords supper. Then came
the long looked for part, on which all
eyes were curious to look. Elder Wiley
Simmons said that they were not asham-
ed of their religion and would prove It
by their works, at the same time divest-
ing himself of his coat and girding him
self with towel, he filed a basin with
water and proceeded to wash the feet Of
the oldest member present, who in return
! washed the feet of the elder. The other
members did likewise until all were
washed. Whether services closed with q
benedlction or net, the writer is unable tC
say. Becoming hungry, he went near tc
a wagon In which he knew dinner was

very easily be seen. Our timber is
one of the greatest sources Of
wealth that we have, and under the
old plan it was impossible to form a
correct estimate of the amount of
timbered lands in the state; but
under the present system the tax
