certained that ex President Davis

is due largely to the honndlesS
hospitality of Mr.. Davis. made nee
esSary by his exalted position.
Mr.. Davis has always firmly re.
fused TO receive money as gift,
AMI the only way to meet the ex-
igencies of the case and place him

him on earth FEE from financial
cares is By the purchase of the Ar
Kansas land" Shares of S10 each

From Putnam county, Fla, comes
news of remarkable occurrence. Some
farmers in the field heard tremendous
rushing sound over their heads, and look
ING up saw something THAT looked Ike
a solid column OF fire passing with tre-
mondous velocity through the air with a
whirring, kissing sound. 1t appeared TO
be from eight to ten feet in length and
from four to five feet in diameter When
first discovered it seemed to be several
hundred feet above the earth and was IN
clining in its course toward the ground,
profusely emitting great sparks OF fire,
In an instant it passed out OF sight and
An awful explosion took place that shook
the earth for miles around and was heard
for q distance of fifteen miles.
The story is going the rounds Of re-
tail dealer who obtained rare bargain
in ladies hemstitched linen handker-
chiefs which he designed to sell at Il iair
profit. a. twenty-five cents each. On
examination of the goods he determined
not 10 give such value for 30 small asum.
Taking one half this lot he marked each
handkerchief in the corner with lead
pencil twenty-five cents, and tho
other half Of the lot, precisely
the same style and quality, he mark
ed in the same way thirty cents,
and displayed the goods on his
counter side by side. Imagine his sur
prise when he found that two ont of
every three OF his lady customers Sc
lected the bargains at 30 cents, leaving
him with the larger part of those
marked IS cents on his counter. AS 1t
was impossible TO alter the marks from
rs 10 80 without solling the goods, he
was actually compelled to purchase
another invoice OF the same lot to oblige
the fair buyers who preferred 10 pay 80
cents for the article rather than 20 cents.

RELICS or OLD VOYAGES.

A very interesting archaeological dis
covery was made some years ago in Nor
way. From burial moun6, nearly 100
feet in diameter, was dug a well-pre-
served viking ship. in which some chief
tain bad been entombed centuries ago.
The craft is tho largest ancient vessel
now known to exist, it being seventy-four
feet long and sixteen wide, with twenty
ribs. Along its sides row Of circular
shields extends completely around it.
The mound ID now nearly mile from
the sea, but it is evident that in olden
times the waves washed its base and that
the vessel was drawn out OF the water
and buried at its edge.
