Curious Tomb of a Kentuokian.

Several weeks ago Mr.. James Golden
a well known lumber dealer of Hick-
man, KY. died there and was buried
with a strict conformity with the pro-
visions of a remarkable will He had
while in health strong fear of being
buried alive, fostered probably by read
ing accounts of the few cases of this
kind that are known to have occurred
and he determined to take no chances in
that line that could possibly be avoided
He caused tomb to be erected. and in
that tomb had an opening left on the
east side large enough for man to pass
through. This was covered with glass.
In his will he stipulated that strong
hammer should be placed in the casket
with him, and that the lid of the coffin
should not be screwed down. so that if
by chance he should be consigned to the
tomb before his life was extinct he
might, if he gained power to move, push
off the lid and with the hammer break
out the glass in the opening left for the
purpose. and thus escape a lingering,
horrible death. His instructions were
faithfully obeyed. Friends took it upon
themselves to watch the tomb and be
near in case the gentleman's fears should
prove well founded and render him as
sistance. But death came with an un-
erring shot, and he still slum bers peace
fully in his casket-Columbus (Ky.)

A Jury with Hard sense.

From town almost near enough to
Philadelphia to be called suburb comes
story of unique dispensatioh of justice
by jury from around about the vicin-
ity. The case was one in which the
prosecution was brought by young
woman against a young man. Despite
the eloquent pleading of the lawyer for
the fair one, the jury rendered a verdict
of acquittal, and then proceeded to as
sess the defendant fourth of the costs.
the prosecutrix fourth. the constable
who arrested the prisoner a fourth, and
the justice of the peace who sent the
case to court fourth. The judge re-
marked that that wasn't much of a Jury
for law, but it was strong in the way of
common sense. Philadelphia Record.

Gently witnessing pilgrimage of

Known as the "Confraternity of Saint
Cosmo," which is one of the oldest g.

Oldest Bell in America.

Brooklyn Eagle.
The congregation of the African
Methodist Episcopal church at Haley
vile, N. j., has rare relic In the
shape OF large bell which is said by
those who have traced its history to
be the oldest bell in the western HEM
isphere. The bell was procured by
Capt Elias Newell on one Of the Bsha.
ma Islands, and presen ted by him to
the church. 1t is one of the bells, as
stated, which Ferdinand and Isabella
placed upon the Alhambrs in 1872,
and in 1902 was presented by Queen
Isabella to Christopher Columbus
upon his fourth and last voyage to
America. II was placed in the chapel
which was the beginning of the great
Cathedral of Cartusgena, in New Ora
Hads. In 1907, upon the siege of Car
thsgena, 1t fell to the share of the
French ship Ls Rochelle. Alter
ward this ship was wrecked upon the
Island of San Andreas, one Of the Ba-
hsmas.
A few of the crew were saved, to-
gether with the bell. From the des.
cendantS of the survivors the bell and
its history were obtained by Capt.
Newell, of the bark Ezra n. Fisk, of
Haleyville. There is q debt OF 500
resting upon the church at Haley
vile. and so highly do the people
value the relic--the Columbus bell
that they will not place 1t in the
church lest the latter may be sold for
debt, and they lore the bell, but it is
securely kept at the residence of
Trustee Alfred Green. 1t will be 400
years old next year, and it is proposed
that 1t shall be exhibited at the Co
lumbar Exposition.
