The march Of Improvement has
made itself clear in that section.
One of the most attractive parts of
the grove was that on its northward

some years ago built large and

officers of the company are: A. T.

Broughton and T. B. Moseley, di-
rectors. These are men of means
and enterprise, and they have GER
tainly made choice of an attractive
site for the new suburb, to which
they have given the very appro-
pirate name of Oakland, since upon
a considerable part of it there is a
fine native growth of oaks. Mr..
Alexander Porter is now superin-
intending the work of laying off the
streets and the avenues. The
company has named the street

to this the street car line will be

A BUSTING OLD MAID.
She Concealed a Fortune I'm the Part

Miss Maggie Schutt, of Derry, Pa,
died one day last week. She was sixty
five years of age, and since her Tiers
death, twenty years ago, had been liv-
ing out as a maid of all work. for long
time having been employed by a family
named Bennett. For years Miss
Schutts relatives have been puz led -

She lived like a perversc old maid
and INDUCED in no luXurics or frivoIi-
ties. Three days after her funeral two

by Miss Schutt. Her wardrobe was not
extensive, but the accumulation of old
knick-knacksf for years was quite bulky.
Several articles of wearing apparel
were consigned to the fire.

The Meaning Of Free Coinage.

The National Stockman and Farmer,
having been frequently asked to define
free coinage of silver" wrote to the
Treasury department at Washington
and got this definition from the direc-
tor of the mint: The term free and
unlimited coinage of silver means the
comforting of the right upon individuals
TO take silver of any kind to the minis
and have every 81 Ia pure grains of it
stamped, free of charge, into a dollar,
which dollar is full legal tender for its
face value in the payments of debts
and obligations of all kinds in the
United States" In other words, an
ounce of silver (4sO grains) which can
be bought in the open market for 9S
cents, is to pass, under the kind of free
coinage now proposed, for 100 cents.
A Spectator who paid sos for 100
ounces would get of the treasury Sl29
in national currency. making S3l by
the transaction. Or, TO put it differ
emily, with the silver at 9s cents per
ounce he could get 100 silver dollars,
or silver certificates for silver
bullion costing him S75.79. The aver
age cost of producing silver per ounce
in the United States in 1856 was Sill
cents per ounce. In Montana the
average cost was 1913 cents per ounce.
The Granite Mountain mine in that
State, according to the official state
ment of the Granite Mountain company
to the directors of the mint in 1886, pro
duced 2,9s7,745 ounces of silver at a
cost of l2 "a cents per ounce. In
Mexico the cost is ~ 3-s cents; South
America, "a 5-S cents; in Australia, at
the Broken Hill mine. IL cents. Very
large quantities of silver are produced
at these figures,

A Colored Man Got Away With Six
Dozen Eggs.
We have here negro man, Nose
Hudson, about 80 years OF age,
weight 200 pounds, who has frequent
ly boosted of the number Of eggs he
could eat. He was standing around
the store OF l.. J. Everett someone
asked him II he felt like eating any
eggs. He replied that he was not
hungry, but that ne would like to
have few dozen if someone would
furnish them. An agent for a patent
churn dash, Ira Gooch, asked him
how many he could eat. He said If he
was hungry he could eat seven dozen.
"Well," said Mr.. Gooch. "if you will
eat six dozen l will pay for them"
"All right" said Nose 'SGit the eggs"
but as the preparations were begun he
begged for q little time to let the three
quarts OF buttermilk which he had
Just drank settle. At IL o'clock A. NJ,
to the surprise of ALL he got back from
his house, and as he came up he said he
was now ready for the eggs. He ssid
he must cook them in his own way,
which was agreed to. The time
which he must eat them was fixed at
Is minutes, and the cooking began.
A little lard was put into the oven,
and heated quite hot, and eighteen
eggs were put in. He did not allow
the oven to be put on the fire after the
eggs were in it, but would stir them
about a minute and pour into an
other vessel. This was repeated until
six dozen were cooked, and the eating
began. He first began with spoon,
but, fearing lest it would take him
over time, he actually drank them
from the vessel, and in eight minutes
he had the job completed.-Dallas

STORY OF A DIAMOND.
1t Was Obtained by q Surgeon From
Brazilian by Sharp Practice.

1t Was Obtained by Surgeon From
a Brazilian by Sharp Practice.
A rare diamond, weighing nearly
four carats, now in New York, has a
remarkable history. 1t was found IN
tho gold district of Brazil by a native
who did not know it's value, but kept
it as D ''luck" stone. One day while
journeying to q camp of trades with
lis gold dust he was bitten by SER
pcnt. Applying the antidote known
to the people OF that country, he pro-
ceeded on his way but, had not Como
far when he was again bitten. He
treated himself for the second wound
and continued on his journey. While
STOPPING to drink firm q broo k the
fangs of a snake were fastened in the
bag which contained the stone. On
reaching the camp he was found to be
succumbing rapidly TO the effects of
the venom, and when questioned by
the camp surgeon told how the snake
had seized the bag at his throat.
The surgeon was permitted to see
the stone, and, suspecting its real
character, he told the native that it
was extremely dangerous to have
it about him, as it attracted venom
Gus reptiles, and advised him to sink
it in a neighboring brook. The super
stitious finder OF the diamond acted
upon the suggestion, and the covetous
surgeon, having watched the proceed
ing, awaited himself OF the first oppor-
tunity to fish the gem from it's hiding
place. The diamond was purchased
recently from the cutter in Eurnpe by
Edwin A. Thrall, OF New York.-Pitts-
