Nineteen Days In the Woods.

W. Fl. Beller recently turned up at his
home in Mercer county, w. Va, after
having been lost for 10 days in the New
Pine mountains. For the first four day s
no travelled constantly in the endeavor
to find his way out Of the wilderness in
which he was lost. When he found that
he had bat two matches left, and fear
ing that he might use them up and be
unable to kindle a fire, he picked out a
permanent camping place, started fire
against pine tree and made ready to
live as best he could until aid came. His
tree burned until it fell and then he
piled brush against the fallen trunk in
order to keep the fire going. He re-
manned at that place IS days, moving Q
few feet each day Us the fire travelled
along the PROSTATE tree.
He slept as best he could by night, and
by day never lost sight OF his fire. Once
an antlered buck came within rife shot,
but Beller had the chagrin to see his rife
leaning against tree. with the buck be-
tween him and the weapon. He hallooed
at intervals each day, and the noise at
last brought hunter to his aid. Beller
was then haggard wretch, his clothing
burned in many places and his fingers
both burned and frozen. He believes
that he could not have held out two days
longer.-New York Sun.

There will be queer last will and tes-
lament offered for probate in tho ordi-
nary's Office soon in this county.
Some years before the war Julia Phin-
Ivy, bright and buxom young slave
woman. with health and energy, con-
tracted with the late Ferdinand Phinizy
her owner-for her freedom, agreeing
to pay a stated sum therefor. BY indus
try, frugality and economy she managed
to pay the amount and gain her freedom

ton was issued. Julia still continued to
work and econoinize and was always re-
garded as an exceptionally good woman.
She thought a great deal Of her masters
family before and after freedom and
never ceased to hold them in the highest
esteem.
They also loved Julia, their old slave.
A few days ago she died. She left a will
duly executed and signed. BY the will
she bequeathed all her property, which
amounted to nice little sum, consider
ing the fact that it was entirely the saw
ings Of an ex-slave made dollar by dollar
with hard work, to member Of her old
masters family.
She named as the beneficiary in this
carefully drawn document Mr.. Marian
Phinizy. son Of the late Ferdinand
Phinizy, who lives in this city and who
is worth in his own right quarter Of a
million.
Having no heir Of her own, this honest
and devoted old slave left her earthly
possessions as monument Of her love
for her old masters family, which will
be perpetuated by being spread upon the
