COMPANY "H".-Active steps are
being taken to organize a new mill
tary company in this city. About
half the required number have al
ready signed the membership roll.
The company will be known as al. ,
The comgany formely bearing that
uame, which was at Coquille City
has disbanded. Salem can easily
sustain two military companies.
This move should receive the hearty
support of the lovers of military af-
fairs for several reasons, and among
them are these. Company "B" has
been endeavoring to secure suitable
armory, in which to drill, for several
years. If there were two compan-
les in the city to use the same hall
they would have fair prospect to
get such a building. There would
be friendly .rivaly tetween the
companies which would be a great
stimulus for more thorough drilling.
Two companies in the same city in
the center of the state would insure
the encampments to be held here.
Salem can have company which
would be the pride of the whole
regiment.

large caves have been explored which
were found to lead to an underground
town built apparently before the Chris

have been found, and also designs

lead to the belief that the town dates
back to some two centuries before the
birth of Christ. There are number

want in novel is something as real as

The novel need not necessarily begin

THERE are many people who never
hesitate or delay in answering bust
ness letter, but whose private corre-
spondence is always in arrears. This
is not solely because selfish motives
appeal to them more strongly than
generous ones. They have learned to
regard the former as part of their
definite daily duty, while the latter as
sumes no such authority in their eyes,
The former deals with the actual and
material; while the latter may be
largely made up Of feeling or senti-
ment or, at any rate. subject-mstter
which. it is thought can be expressed
at any time. Moreover. the habit of
attending to the former has been thor
oughly acquired giving an increasing
facility in doing IL, while in the latter
the habit OF postponement has been
strengthened. and the work becomes
correspondingly arduous and repug-
mont. Thus, while dilatory habits are
seldom suffered to injure business
correspondence they are frequently
permitted TO destroy social intercourse,

seeds Of discord and unhappiness in

A PECULIAR feature of vanity j. the
absolute unconsciousness OF those who
suffer from it. Though they parade
themselves as transparency before
all the world, they never seem to
realize that they are known, assessed,
and understood by their fellows. Van
ity is a parasitic growth that will at
tach itself to any character. If it is
oftener seen in women, in them it is a
milder FORM, taking the shape of a de.
sire to be attractive. The vain man
does not care to be attractive; he is
not upset by the thought that he ye-
pels. Vanity indeed has been the
vulnerable heel of many demi-god.

humanity in every stage OF its intel
lectual and moral development; but

How Young Man Was Disabused of the

How n Young Man Was Disabused of the
Idea That He Was Smoking Them.
The blear-eyed youth had been strainlng
himself for some time in an apoplectic en-
deavor to pull a Whit of smoke from the
cigar he carried until it seemed like he
would burst a blood-vessel or do himself
some bodily harm, says the Memphis ,Ap-
peal-Avalanche, and one of the company
remarked in gentlemanly way that lie had
better throw the thing out doors.
My dear fellow, you don't know a good
cigar when you see H." the youth replied.
That Is Havana-made article that you
can't buy III this country for any money"
g Then how did you get it?"
1T was this way. | was sitting on the
porch of the leading hotel at Tampa, Fla,
one evening not long ago. All the rest of
the people had retired long before. and l
was about to turn in myself when | was at
tracted by the approach of a fellow who
crept along toward me, always keeping in
the shade, and every now and then looking
about him to see that he was not observed.
When he got to ME he whispered cautiously
that he had a box of cigars to sell. He was
smuggler, he said, and had Just landed a
valuable cargo from Havana. The cigar he
offered me, he said. was worth SO thou
sand in this country, but he would let me
have them for $50. i bought several boxes
of them. and this have in my mouth is
one of the lot.
THE trouble with you fellows is that you
can't appreciate a fine article of cigars"
continued he of the weak optics. and he went
on at some length TO discuss The subject. In
the meantime one of the party slipped out
and running to cigar-store across the
street, brought back handful OF fair-lo ok
ing smokers.
Let us compare the cigars" he said. and
the weak-eyed young man suffered the cont
pariSOn to be made.
They're the same cigar, amt they?"
Undoubtedly they were the same. Every
one in the party admitted that.

\ MYSTIFIED YOUNG MEN.
AVoice From the Bowels of the Eartl
Terribly Frightens Them.

Voice From the Bowels of the Earth
Terribly Frightens Them.
The superstitious residents of Gadsden,
and particularly negroes, are greatly excited
over the alleged adventures Of some en-
plOyes of the car-w0rks in the mountains
near here, says a Gadsden (Ala.) dispatch to
the Memphis Appeal-Avalance. The party,
numbering ten young men, were walking
leisurely along a lonely mountain road,
when they were startled by voice COM
handing them to halt. No person other than
themselves were in sight, and they looked
at each other in amazement, wondering
Whence the command came. They were
mere startled than ever when the mysteri-
Gus voice was heard again. this time SEEM
ing to issue from the solid earth at their
feet. " REPEAT! repent! Quit your mean
ness and 60 to praying" the mysterious one
commanded. "I am John jenkins, who
was murdered at this spot many years ago.
L am now 5000 feet below the surface of the
earth and suffering the tortures of hell. If
you don't go to praying you will be with me
sooner or later."
Each of the men thought that one or an
other of his comrades was exercising ven
triloquial powers, but look into the
blanched faces of the others convinced each
that this was not the case. They closely
examined the ground and the woods in the
vicinity, but found no explanation of the
mystery. Returning to the spot where they
t1'st heard the voice they were startled by
the exclamation: "Oh, you think L am a
fraud, so l will talk to you no more. Re-
member my warning"
The men were thoroughly frightened and
fled from the spot. 1t was evident upon
their arrival in town that their fright was
not feigned, and to-day they are still suffer-
ing from nervousness. The men are among
the most reliable in Gadsden and tell their
story so earnestly and with such an air of
truth that it is hard to disbelieye them.
Mysterious murders have been committed
in the mountains near here, but one in
which John jenkins is concerned Is not re-
membered by the oldest inhabitant.
