Mr.. Creamer, the assignee, advertised
to pay dividend of % per cent on last

thought he could pay another dividend
of 20 per cent.
1t is now generally believed by the
depositors that they will get every cent

Adroit with Spies,

The duke of Marlborough had the
reputation Of being singularly discreet
and adroit in dealing with spies, and
it is on record that when the hero of
Blenheim was commanding in Ger.
many he on one occasion called a coun.
Gil OF war to determine whether the
enemy should be attacked on the fol.
lowing day Every officer present was
in favor of attacking; but the duke
himself professed SO decided a repup.
nance to the step that the council sub
mltted to his superior Judgment and
adjourned Immediately afterwards
Marlborough gave Prince Eugene Sc
cret orders tc prepare for battle on the
following day, adding that spy was
present at the council of war who
would certainly report its decision to
the enemy, and that it was necessary
to deceive him by adopting the ruse to
which the duke had recourse

A bicycle thief has been operating
throughout the State. His method ia
so unique and is SO likely to be intro.
duced wherever there is bicycle store
that it is described. A month ago this
thief entered bicycle store and said he
wanted to rent wheel for two or three
hours, just to make little run. Be.
fore making arrangements for the rent
OF the wheel he took off his coat and
asked if he could leave it there while he
was gone. OF course such an innocent
action was taken as a gu arantee of the
mans faith and, although he was a
stranger, he got the wheel, paying for
its use before he left the store. He went
directly to Unionville, little town in
Union county, where he sold the bicycle
for $50 cash. His coat was probably
worth dollar and half and he paid a
dollar or two for the the use of the
wheel. His afternoons work netted
him not less than $50. The wheel was
recovered but the thief had the money.

The Lynchburg distillery a few days
since paid $4,000 taxes in one lump on
whisky withdrawn from its warehouses.
This is but small part of the govern. !.
ment taxes paid by Freiburg & Work
um. Thus is illustrated whence great
part OF the national revenues are derived.
He ewho listens to the blatant Democratic
orator would think every man, woman
and child in the nation was taxed to
death. But, even these orators couldn't
produce scrap to show that they ever
paid cent of government tax, except
that they voluntarily incur with the
liquor and tobacco they consume. The
great howl about the expense of pen.
sions comes from men who need not
pay cent of it unless they choose.

The long siege of dry weather has
been very hard on crops in this vicinity.
Much OF the corn is already ruined be.
yond help. The pastures are dry and
dusty, the lawns cracked and brown.
The wells are going dry, and unless the
water supply is replenished soon, some
OF our industries will be compelled to
shut down. The need of water works is
decidedly apparant. Their value now
would be beyond estimate. Hillsporo
has not known such drouth at this
season for many years. 1t has been
several weeks since enough rain has
fallen to lay the dust. We have seen
the lightning and heard the thunder of
heavy transforms in various directions,
but the trailing clouds have not come
this way. If the old saying is to be
verified that "the rain shall fall upon
the Just and the unjust" it's about time
the just were getting their share.

Discharge of Firearms.
1t used to be an amusement. and
also duty, to me to try and show the
animals to native gentlemen when
they came from their country seats to
vlslt Calcutta, and invariably invited
them to come with me to see the ZOO.
says writer in Longman's Magazine.

most. One fine old Hindoo nobleman.
with whom have many time been
out tiger shooting on his own proper

new sort of tiger, but he was comfort

hand. wish that he could have been
present to witness a performance by
this pair of giraffes, which did not
see myself, though fortunately Lord
William Beresford saw it and told me
of it.
On the morning of the queens birth
day Beresford was riding past the
giraffe inclosure when feu de ioie
was fired by the soldiers of native
infantry regiment, whose quarters are
not far from the ZOO
AT the first round of the firing the
glraffes were startled. When the Sec
ond round came they took to their heels
and jumped clean over the fence of up
right gurran or waffle sticks, about
ten feet high, that surrounded their
inclosure.
When the third round came the gi-
raffes were so puzzled that they turned
round and popped over the fence again
and sought refuge in the house in
which they were lodged at night. tits
great pity that a sportsman and rider
like Lord William Beresford, who saw
this strange sight, had not mount on
one of the giraffes.

OUR NATIONS CAPITAL
" Has Moved About . Good Deal Nor
Than Most People Suppose,

II Has Moved About . Good Deal More
Than Most People Suppose.
We are quite sure that If a number
OF boys and girls were asked to name
the different capitals of our country,
the order would be something like
this: Philadelphia, New York and
Warrington. This is all right as far
as 1t goes, says the Blue and Gray, but
the truth is our country has had a
good many more capitals than those
named. 1t may be said that during
the revolution the British "kept things
moving" They would have been very
glad to lay hands on the rebel" con-
gress; knowing which, that body took
good care to keep out of their way.
1nasmuch as wherever congress went
1t took the national capital with It.
you can readily understand why the
following named places bore that
honor at the dates named:
Philadelphia, from September s, I774,
until December, 1776; Baltimore, from
December 20, 1776, to March, TIT;
Philadelphia, from March 4, TIT, to
September, 1777; Lancaster, Pa, from
September 81, 1777, to September so,
l777; York, Pa, from September 80,
l777, to July, ITS; Philadelphia, from
July 2, IT'S, to June 80, 1888; Prince
ton, N. j., from June 80, 1888, to No
vember 20, 1888; Annapolis, Nd, from
November, 1888. to November, 1884:
Trenton, N. j., from November, 1854,
to January, 1855; New York, from
January IL, 17S5, to 1890, when the
seat OF government was changed to
Philadelphia, where it remained until
1900, when it was finally removed to
Washington.
Thus it is that nine different cities
and towns have figured as the capital
OF our country.

WHAT DOGS KNOW.
They Are Mind-Readers Rather Than
Word Readers.

| word Readers.
While dogs generally do not really
know the meaning of one-half the
words that their masters think they
know, they certainly do learn to dis
criminate between certain words with
the sound of which they have been
made familiar. They are. however,
much better mind-readers than word
readers, says Youths Companion.
1t is common thing to hear people
say of a dog: HE understands every.
thing that is said" do not believe
that this was ever true of any dog, nor
anywhere near true. Intelligent dogs
know their names and generally recog-
nize the meaning of some half dozen
other words. But they are SO wonder
fully quick in the use of their instinc-
tive perceptions-so much quicker than
civilized human beings ever are-that
people who see them exercise these
perceptions often unreasoningly as
sumo that they understand the words
upon which, rather than upon in.
stinctive perceptions, human beings
base their actions. I will illustrate
what mean.
once had a Newfoundland that was
regarded as marvel of intelligence.
In the evening when made to him
some such wordy speech as this: "In
my opinion, the hour has arrived when
every well-regulated canine citizen
should retire for the night" he would.
to the great wonder of strangers, pick
himself up from the rug reluctantly,
stretch, look furtively at me and then
go away to his sleeping place in the
shed.
But If, at the right time and in the
accustomed way, repeated a phrase
from the Scriptures or quoted line of
poetry in foreign language, the dog
would retire in precisely the same way.
1t was the understood wish, not the
speech, that he obeyed.
OFTEN the best-trained dog seems to
fail to understand an accustomed COM
mand. Everyone who is familiar with
dogs knows that these cases often hap
pen, and then when they do the COM
mand must be repeated until the ami

A VEGETABLE BONANZA.
A Root That IL Often Quoted - Beine

hoot That IL Often Quoted as Being
the Most Valuable.
High prices are often paid at certain
times for drugs such as uuinine. CO.
calne and others, but drug is used in
North China which in actual value far
surpasses anything which has been
known here.
The substance in question is called
ginseng. and is the root of Aralia ouin-
quefolia. 1t is so highly valued as a
tonic and stimulant medicine in China
that 1t is sold at from twenty to two
hundred and fifty times it's weight in
silver, sometimes for five hundred
times that amount. Pearson's Monthly
states, however, that it possesses no
important medicinal properties. Next
to China the drug is produced in good
quallty in Corea. and is the principal
article OF export from Corea into China.
so much is this the case that the CO.
feans are 10th to part with any seeds
OF the plant lest their practical monop-
oily in this root should be invaded.
The wonder is that with such a mucb.
used commodity at such price stems
are not taken to cultivate it in suffi-
cient quantity so as to adjust the bal
ance between supply and demand.
Inc reduction, for example, in the
price of quinine was largely the result
OF increased cultivation of the cinchona
plant, and the same may be said of CO.
calne in respect to the cocoa plant.

tutes OF the real product, ginseng.

Brown county, Ohio. Her death, which
occurred on the Goth OF June, 1898 at
her home, near Barrett's Mills, this
county, was due to the effects OF a

to us all, she has been borne away by
angel forms from her earthly loved ones
to her brighter, better, happier home

The results accomplished by the Dow
liquor law of Ohio are not worth noting.
In substance, the law grants to any
one the right to sell intoxicating drink
upon the payment of yearly license
fee of $3.50. No determinations are
made so long as the stipulated fee is
paid. The Dow law has reduced the
number of saloons from $1,000 to IL 900,
and has closed scores of vicious res orts.
Last year the law produced revenue
to the state OF So, 100000.
