over your weapons to this man." indicating
one of the gang. OF course there was no use
showing fight, as not one of the posse would
have escaped They unstrapped their pis-
tolls and turned them over to their captors.
Then Harris said: "You fellows can take
the back track, and you are safe If you take
the left-hand road; but don't 60 by the other
route" they all left glad to get away
safely.
It was about year after this before
Colonel Saunders again got another clew OF
Harris whereabouts. 1t had always worried
the Colonel TO think or talk over his discom-
future, and he had determined to run Harris
down or die in the attempt. When be got
this last clew he took two of the coolest and
best men on the force. and
srARrED FOR THE MOUNTAINS.
For two weeks the officers searched the
country, living almost altogether in the
woods, but, although they were satisfied on
several occasions that they were in the To-
cality of one OF Harris stills, they could not
locate it. One morning, after having
thoroughly searched certain suspected spot
for q trail Of some sort through the leaves,
or for blazed trees, the men laid down on
top of mountain to rest. Just below them
was cliff, at the foot of which they could
see a narrow shelf or plateau, closely
covered win underground, While lying
upon their backs, one of the
officers happened to glance upward in the
direction OF the cliff. He was astonished to
see thin curl of blue smoke apparently
escaping from the top of dead tree. Rising
to his feet and calling the attention Of his
companions, he walked over to the tree,
which he soon found was hollow. STOPPING
down the officers scratched away the leaves
about the foot of the tree, where the found,
as they suspected, that it was not standing
upon its roots, but Was fixed in q crevice OF
the rock. They then came to conclusion.
and rapidly, but quietly, descended to the
plateau, where
A CLOSE SEARCH
OF few minutes revealed narrow crevice
or doorway through the rock into the noun
tain.
Taking their pistols in their hands, the
officers crept some so feet or more along the
natural hallway, when suddenly they came
to an opening into large cave. In the
center stood large still in full blast, the
smoke from which escaped through the hol-
low tree into the open air.
Around the sides OF the cave stood many
mashtubs with their contents in various
stages Of prepara' ion. A few kegs and jugs,
Winchester rifle and coat thrown care
lessly on shelving rock, completed the
outfit. but no moonshiner was to be seen.
He had escaped through narrow crevice In
the farther end, behind a pile of empty tubs,
before the marshals got sight Of him. In
fact, they never did catch him, and he is,
for all that's known, still engaged in the
manufacture of "pinetop" in some secluded
fastness, safe from the clutches of Uncle
Sans officers. O'MEARA.

RICHMOND, VA. July 12.-Re'
publicanS who have returned here
from Mahone'S Petersburg confer
ence are confident that the latter
will he the nominee ofhis party for.
Governor this year. That matter.
they say. was practically settled at
Petersburg. Mahonc'S admirers
declare that as the nominee of his
party for Governor he can poll
more votes than any other mar
fhey cnn select. Tn the event oil,
the Generals making the race.
they say, they count upon having
the full support of the Harrison
administration, and all the aid
that the jnaicious hestowal Of fed
cral patronage in the Srate can az
ford. Indeed mt least one Of those
who participated in Mahnnc's cor
tiilcnce did not hesitate to intimate
that the hope that Mahone's nomi-
nation for Governor would secure
Tor him an uninterrupted pull on
the patronage had much 10 do
with the desire of his followers 10
see him make the race. The Sc
lection of the place for holding the
Republican State Convention was
lrft. br the committee TO sub
committee. The impression seems
to I've that Roanoke has been l4rac-
tically determined on. The con-
trolling reasons for selecting that
place seems to be because it is in
the heart of The mining region a:i.i
seat Of extensive industrial enter
priscs, which will exert an infln-
encc upon The platform of the con-
yenr.tti6n. Another reason for Sc
lecting the Southwest probably is,
it ia remote from the great negro
district. and will thus prevent tnaf
element from having too much in

Interesting Coupon Decision.

Tn our report Of the CORPORATION
Court on Friday was briefly stated
that in the case of the Common.
wealth against g. T. plnnkett, the
demurrer was oyerruled. This WAS
I'm Indictment against Plnnkett for
dealing in coupons as a broker
without paying the licence OF 81
OOO prescribed hy the State Legis-
laiurc. The demurrer WAS upon
the ground that the funding act
created a contract between the
State and the holders OF it's bonds
and the coupons attached, and
that the license fax OF a thousand
dollars amounted to taxing the
coupons out OF existence, therefore
violated that provision of the obi
gation of y contract" The court
held the license TAX to be legiti-
mate and overruled the demurrer.
The case WAS thereupon submitted
to The jury aud fully argued. tt e
act of Assembly imposes Il fine Of
from five hundred to two thousand
dollars upon amy one dealing in
coupons without Il license. The
jury brought in n verdict against
Mr.. Pluuke't for two thousand
dollars. Mr.. Piunkett moved for a
new trial with The view of filing Il
bill eff exceptions in order to take
the case 10 the Virginia Court OF
Appeals, his intention being in the
event of an adverse decision there
TO endeavor to get the case into
