TREASURE TROVE.
Silverware and Other Things Stolen
by a Thief Found i'm a Cave.

Hartman (Tenn.) Letter to Houston Post.
The unearthing OF a large quantity Of
Stolen silverware. gold-lined snuffboxes.
etc, IN cave near Jasper. this State, has
created - sensation. The story beats fiction
long way During the winter OF 1864
the Federal soldiers were eDcamped for
some time On Battle Creek. Among them
was an OHIO regiment. Not long since a
gentleman appeared in the neighborhoOd
and told the following story:
He was member of the Ohio regiment
referred 10, and in his mess was q soldier
who was a born thief, and who never let
an opportunity pass to steal anything he
could carry away. During the time they
were encamped at the mouth Of Battle
Creek he hid his stealings in cave, and SO
clever was lac in his work that no suspicion
ever fell upon him. A short time ago the
two old comrades were together talking
over their experiences. when the story OF
the stolen silverware was told and the re-
quest made that the gentleman referred to
visit the locality. search for the cave and,
il possible, recover the hidden silverware
aud restore the articles to their rightful
owners or their heirs.
The old soldier who had so many years
ago gone wrong is getting aged and feeble,
and to ease his conscience and make repara-
tion as far as in his power, he begged his
old commander to do this for. him. He was
successful In finding not only the place but
the plunder
At least 200 pounds of silverware Of every
kind almost were found in the cave. ranging
from napkin-rings to solid silver water sets.
Many OF the articles have the owners in
itials ON them and all are In good state
of preservation. The articles have been
taken to store In the village near by and
are being turned over to those entitled to
them as rapidly as possible.

A DASHING PRINCESS.
She Again Furnishes Material for
Gossip i'm France.


The Princess Marie d'OrleAns, daughter
OF the Duke de Chartres. again furnishes
material for gossip in the French papers.
Seven years ago she married Prince Valde-
mar IF Denmark and went to live 10 Copen-
hagen. The married couple took up very
modest quarters in the Yellow Palace. But
soon the Princess got tired of this kind
OF quiet life, which did not suit her mod
ern and artistic tastes. She began to make
her home brilliant and gay. The MEN,
bers OF the royal family, and partic-
ularly Queen Louise, considered them
selves greatly scandalized by her conduct.
In spite OF the remonstrances OF her aus
tere mother-in-law, the lively Princess dis
played all sorts of eecentricities. which the
four hundred Of Copenhagen considered
outrageous. Educated in the free air of
English liberty, her little Partisan brain
constantly busted itself Ia tie manufacture
of new distractions. She was often seen on
horseback dashing along accompanied by
only single escort, and in her little pony
phaeton she loved TO dash along at full
speed through the streets OF COpen hagen.
She seldom failed to go to the races, where
she chatted Familiarity with groups OF off,
GERS and sportsmen while she smoked her
cigarettes. Naturally enough, The men en-
couraged her, because she was original and
charming, while the ladies were scandeliZed.
The brilliant and lovely little Princess
shocked them still more by her private par

men only were invited. Last New Years
eve she sent the following invitation TO her
military friends:
Come and take supper The 31st of December at
11;30 o'clock.
OF course they came and had glorious
time. The Princess herself made the punch
and touched glasses with her guests just as
the old clock sounded midnight, announcing
the arrival of the new year. On another
occasion, when her guests were enjoying
themselves hugely and making quite an up
roar. she said to them: Hush! hushl

Herfun seems to be over for the present.
short time ago she mysteriously left
Copenhagen, and she is now in Paris with
her parents. 1t was at first said that she
left because her husband was too attentive
TO another lady. But this story is not cred
tied, and u is now Tumored that Prince VAL
demar Is about TO join his wife In Paris A
difference in the religious views of the
Prince and Princess is said to be the real
cause OF the trouble. de is a Protestant
and she Is IA Catholic, and wishes to have

In spite of this little family Jar, The
sprighuy little Princess will yet mike things

MARY AND JAMES.
A Portland Pair Married in
This City.
OUTWITTED THEIR PARENTS.
The Story of Two Young Oregun
People Who Fondly Loved
Each Other.

zDespite the threats OF angry parents Chs
two loving hearts that were separately
ensconeed in the loving breasts of j. w.
Seaton and Mary Prindle now beat as one.
The couple are safely enmeshed in Hy-
mems let and they care not a jOt what the
consequences are.
The parents of the couple are tillers of
the soil and own adjoining farms about
twelve miles from Portland. Or. They are,
moreover. bitter enemies, and the feud
which was eDgendered some fifteen years
ago only grows in intensity as the years
fly by.
When Seaton and Mary Prindle were chill
dren they naturally sought relief from the
monotony of farm life in the enjoyment Of
each others company.
But even then they only found the oppor-
tunity of INDUCING their childish affection
by clandestinely avoiding the watchfulness
OF their parents.
As they grew older the farmers daughter
and the farmers son realized that the affec-
ton they bore toward each other was some
thing more than that which results from
frequent companionship.
They were indeed lovers. When Mary
went out, ostensibly for the purpose Of
looking up the chickens, and James strOlled
out to feed the horses on his fathers farm
they always manager To StrOIl around 10
the deviatlng line between the two farms.
They talked of nothing else but tie day
when they could be made one. But there
were almost insurmountable difficulties in
the way before that day could arrive.
1t was useless to appeal to their parents
to allow the marriage. There was too much
bad feeling existing between the two fam
lilies TO allow OF such thing. For years
the young couple have been devising WAYS
and means of outwitting their parents.
At last Mary reached her eighteenth birth
day and was therefore her own mistress.
But still that gave but little satisfaction, as
James would have 10 wait eight months be-
fore he attained his majority. But that
time, slowly as il seemed, came around, and
the pair were happy.
They had their plans all prepared to
thwart the wishes OF the angry quartet who
were their parents
On last Saturday morning Mary made an
excuse 10 60 to Portland with her brother
and young Seaton managed to frame an ex-
cuse without exciting suspicion to go to the
same city.
The pair met according to their arrange
ments and that very day took the train for
this city. A kind acquaintance Eere fur
nlshed them with the idea of getting married
by contract.
Accompanied by the friend they repaired
to Wieklifie Matthews Office, where they
were duly made one by the man of law
according to legal covenants.
The attorney claims he did everything
according TO the card except to salute the
bride. The young couple were apparently
delighted with the Way they had outwitted
their parents.
The newly made bridegroom proposes to
work out his own destiny In this city. So
III any two young people are reported to be
missing from among the suburban popula-
tlon OF Portland the authorities of that city
can rest easy as they are duly married and
residing here.

headed urchin with warts all over your
fingers. freekles on your face and stone.

gible jargon you managed to familiarize

trade might last for ever?
Did you ever see O cub of boy who
wouldn't make break to join you to GO
swimming IL you made the magic sign-two
fingers in the ar? Do YOU forget that a
dead cat would remove warts, and that to
kill toad would make a COW give bloody
milk? But these things are kept secret to
the craft. No boy ever tells man why he
holds ny two fingers to signify that he wants
to go swimming, and no boy knows where
he learns Ii. He picked it up Just as he
picked mp the knowledge that to find his
lost marbles he must spit In his palm and
splash the saliva by blow from his other
hand. the lost treasure being in the direc-
ton OF the spattering OF the fluid. He

isn't 1t pitful how meager the mystery and
impressiveness that attend the organi "a
tons that men have formed. A boy is an
odd piece of furniture. but he Is the ground
and chief ingredient of the man. Delude
not yourself with the belief that the boy is
not all he pretends to be, for he Is a great
deal more. He Is an incomprehensibIe
fellow TO any one but another boy, and be-
cause he will presently grow into the awk-
ward between bay-and-grass period that
separates boyhood from manhood. and to a
numbering idiot then, it don't signify that
he is an idiot now. He never is. But his
chrysalis state letters him and makes him
seem like one sometimes.
The boy is all right.
