Sleep In Disused Quarries.

One of the most curious and deplor-
able sights in connection with pauper-
ism during the winter in Paris is the
influx Of peripatetic beggars who in
wade at night the disused quarries of
A~rgenteuil and Montmartre. where
they huddle together, as close rs they
safely can, to the limekilns, in order
to obtain a little warmth. Along the
suburban roads in the direction OF
Paris they can be seen in t1sos and
threes bent double almost and hungry,
hurrying on and footsore, in the hope
of being in time to obtain a nights
shelter in the isles de nuit--night
refuges--of the capital. But in those
buildings, according to the Philadel-
phia Ledger, there is not sufficient
room to accommodate all applicants.
Their hospitable doors are open only
for a short time late at night, and when
once they are closed all e~ntreaties for
admission are vigorously unheeded.
In the disused quarries they can find
plenty of room. A whole army of
mendicants could easily obtain shelter
in their long galleries. warm cornec
to huddle up i'll and n convenient stone
for a pillow. Moreover, there are no
awkward nuestions asked as at the
aisles de mutt, such as "Who art thou?
From whence cometh thou? What is
thy calling?" And SO from all direc-
tions leading toward Paris they come
in large numbers at night, mud-be-
shattered, hollow-cheeked, worn out
with fatigue, and numbered by hum
dreds as they descend into the quar-
ries, where, pressed pell nell n
against the other, they endeavor by
contact to keep out the cold. The
largest number and deepest of these
disused quarries are in the neighbour
hood of Argenteuil, and there it is that
the police often make their raids when
in search of some criminal who has
escaped capture, and who, it is
thought. may be hiding among the
stmalfrats-"

country between Little Big Black
Mountain is a ginseng region, and the
Parker family are noted as ''sengers. "
The girls go ont barefooted in the
mountains, though the country is in
tested with rattlesnakes and copper
heads, and dig the ginseng, for which
they get good prices at the stores, and
from which it is taken to Pennington
Gap for shipment.
But along Glover Gap and up Rattle
snake Creek there are numberless rep
tiles. Beckie Parker is a girl, about
nineteen years of age, strong, healthy
looking and handsome, but with a very
determined face. She is a splendid
rifle shot and is often seen with her
Winchester.
She goes after ginseng barefooted
and often alone. The roots are gath
cred in May and September, and dur
ing the month just past she did a
thriving business. One day, however,
she came across a den of rattlesnakes.
She had only stones and sticks with
which to fight the desperate battle.
Some of the snakes were larger than a
mans arm, and few of them as large
as the calf of a mans leg. For
hours she fought them as they Missed
and writhed and ratified around her.
But the brave, determined girl battled
with them until she exterminated
every one that did not succeed in hid

had crushed the last one to be seen

The only argument that is being used
against George Gaghan in his candi-
dacy for County Auditor is the fact thc t
he has held the office of Postmaster Of
Bowling Gresn during the past four
years, and that the Office being the best
paying one in the county he has had
enough from the public. This argu-
ment may, possibly, sound reasonable
to those who are unacquainted with the
facts, aud for tho benefit of this class of
Republicans, the JOURNAL will state IL
few facts in the case. The Bowling
Green Office pays from all sources, ST.
$50 per year. When Gaghan accepted
the Office he supposed the government
paid the services of one clerk, but in
this he was mistaken and soon learned
that it was necessary for him to be paid
out of the Postmaster's salary, and the
expenses Of the Office per year can be
figured up thusly: Salary for Deputy
lat $50 per month, $500; salary for
second clerk, ut $40 per month, $3.50;
expense as examiner of county post
Offices, s75 per year.; lights, heating and
rent per year, se6.5O; making total of
81 ,2S1.50 for expenses, which deducted
from the $3.50, income of the Office,
leaves the magnificennt sum OF $53S.50
per year for the Postmaster. These
figures are correct and any person who
il in doubt about the matter can be fur
nished with ample proof of the state
ment. Mr.. Gaghan ut one time thought
of resigning the office, but upon re-
Election, decided not to do so, as, it
would not be showing proper respect to
the friends who Interested themselves
in his behalf when IL candidate for Post
master. 1t will be seen that Gaghan's
pull at the public funds has been a
mighty slim one. The Government
imposes upon the county seat Post
master the duty of inspecting the vari-
GUS offices in the county, but Goes not
all0w any salary, and Lot one cent fol
expenses, the time and expenses are to
be paid out of the Postmaster's private
purse. Gaghan has been very able
official and the people who do busines:
with the Office would gladly have hin
remain another term. No one doubts
his ability to perform the duties of the
Auditors Office and if the Republican,
nominate him there is no man in WOOD
county who can defeat him at the polls
and the party will have reason to be
iproud of their candidate.
