The Marshall Reporter sayss ga few
days ago some we'll diggers WHO were at
work on the farm of ole Nordbo, in the
town of Nordland, about four miles from
here, encountered at depth of sixty
five feet a peculiar sort of clay which.
when lifted to the surface, proved to be
nearly snow white. Again and again the
drill went down and brought up the
same substance, until at depth of about
ten feet in this white stuff, rushing
stream of water prevented further dig

resembles Stacked lime, is said to be en-

THE RIGHT KIND OF A GIRL.

A young lady from the South was woed
and won by a young California physician.
About the time the wedding was to come
off, the young man lost his entire fortune.
He wrote the lady a letter releasing her
from the engagement. And what does
the dear girl do? Why, she takes a lump
of pure gold which her lover had sent her
in his prosperity, as a keepsake, and,
having it manufactured into a ring, for
warded it to him with the following Bible
/ scription engraved in distinct characters
on the outside: "Entreat me mo- to
leave thee; or return from following after
thee; for whittier thou will l lodge, thy
people shall be my people, and thy God
my God; where thou diest will I die, and
there wilt | be buried; the Lord do so to
me, and more also, if aught but death
part me and thee" We may add that
fortune oon again smiled upon the young
physician, and that he subsequently, re-
turned to the South to wed the sweet
girl he loved, and who loved him with
such undying affection. Reader, this is
all true. Young ladies WAC read the Bible
as the heroine Of this incident seems to
have done, are pretty sure to make good
sweethearts and better wites.-PttS6WTg

A Missouri Man Who Couldn't Think
of the burned Word.
A typical Nissourian appeared at the
fremont House the other afternoon, says
the Mime apolis Tribune, and asked for a
room. He said his name was john
Wakely. About 5 o'clock ne approached
the clerks desk and said:
{ Guess I'll remain, cause I'm kinder
tired"
PLEASED to have you," ratified the
clerk. What's the name? Wakely.
Oh, yes; give you No. 56l-front room
with bath; southern exposure. You can
get dinner at g."
The fellow stood like a bronze statue
for a few moments AID then took a chair
opposite the counter. At 6 o'clock an
other clerk came on watch, and Wakely
went to him, saying:
my name is Wakely. Guess Ill re,
main"
"Thank you, Mr.. Wakely. Let's see,
SCI, best room on hat floor, if not in the
house. Just make yourself at home
here"
The man seemed d~umfounded at some
thing, and he returned to his chair direct
ly opposite the register. When the night
clerk appeared at II o'clock the Missou-
rian almost ran to the counter.
"Im glad the've got a new boy" he
said, "Im what they call SCI, and l
want to remain. Do you understand 2"
Certainly, Mr.. Wakely. 1 am going
to eat luncheon now, but if 1 can do any
thing for you after that don't hesitate to
call upon me. Be pleased to serve you,
sir"
The strange guest after glazing at the
clerk, returned to his chair, where he cid
not move till 2 a. m. Then he was dis
tu' bed by a couple of late boiserous trav-
cling men.
"We've had enough fun" spoke one
of the drmmers. eve might as we'll re-

Here the man from Missouri jumped
about two feet in the air, yelling to the
clerk: "Retire! That's the burned
