Digging for Buried Gold.

The news comes from Guadalajara,
Mexico, that Spaniard named Fran
cisco Perez arrived at the city Of
Ameca, this state, from Lisbon, Spain.
He had with him several old docu-
ments and drawings showing the loca-
ton of hidden treasure amounting in
value to 81, 100000, which had been
secured century or more ago by u
band of brigands, all Of whom were
afterwards killed or driven out of the
the country. Perez came across the
documents few months ago and at
once set out for Ameca to seek the
wealth. He secured from the city
authorities exclusive permission to ac-
quire whatever he might find and has
already had success. An iron box
filed with gold coin and jewelry hav-
ing been unearthed near the founda-
ton of an old CATHEDRAL, in the vicinity
of which all of the wealth is believed
to be hidden. The value of the con.
tents Of the box is placed at $500, 900.

Anarchist Preaching.

At Corinth, Miss, Frank Mcclure
one of the would-be Memphis and
Charleston train robbers has made
full confession Of the plot to rob the
pay train. He confesses that they had
planned to dcrail the train in broad
daylight, with the intention of piling
up lot of cross ties and placing dunn
mics indicating the gang to be at some
distance off in another direction.
He says the escaped convict, Frank
Jones, of Texas, was the instigator Of
the plan, and had been preaching the
doctrine that the wealth of this coun-
try was unevenly divided and by his
reasoning they were worked up to
such an extent that they were willing
to shed any amount of blood to reach
their ends.

Solid as a Rock.

"The solid South" has heretofore
been regarded as an alliterative phrase
denoting the political unity of Our peo-
pie, but the experience of the past two
years gives it new meaning.
When we glance over Dun's review
of the past twelve months it becomes
apparent that the South is the solid
section of the republic from tinan-
cial point of view. In twelve South
ern States last year there were only l.
$50 failures-less than II per cent. of
the total for the entire country. These
failures were for light amounts or
about per cent. of the total for the
United States.
The northeast and northwest were
the chief sutferers-the South escaped
with only touch of the prevailing
depression. There was no general
shutting down of our industries, and
many of our manufacturing establish
ment paid much larger dividends than
their competitors in the North.
Capitalists and men of enterprise in
other section are carefully noting
these facts aud seeking further infor-
nation. 1t strikes them that if the
South can hold her own and even
make progress under the adverse con-
ditions of the past two years, this re-
gion must possess wonderful and
profitable resources, and they are com,
ing to the conclusion that the best and
safest field for investment and devel-
opment is the fair and productive ter
ritory south of the Potomac.
1t needed this experience to con-
vince the people of the North and
West that ours is the richest and most
promising quarter of the Union. The
outside world has now reversed its
old judgment, and for the first time
in our history we are receiving due
credit for our hard work, enconomy
and progressive spirit.
There will never be another great
tide of emigration westward. For a
long time to come we may expect to
see wealth and population drifting in
this direction. Hundreds OF thousands
of well-to-do people of the North and
West are looking this way. They feel
irresistibly drawn toward land of
promise where it is 50 easy to live I'M
der pleasant conditions where econ
omy and industry can ward off the
worst panic, and where nearly every
thing is produced that the world wants
and muet have.
The South should prepare for tre-
mendous influx of settlers. Our white
population will increase so rapidly in
the next few years that the alleged
race problem will drop out of sight
forever. When a section demonstrates
the fact that it is Independent of hard
times, nothing can retard its advance
ment. This is the South's position to-
J day, and the men who control the
worlds capital, commerce and indus
tries are studying the situation and
| getting ready to make something out

THEY TAPPED THE BARREL.
Thieves Get Away With whisky in y
Novel Manner.


The Memphis Commercial says that
from Eden, Miss, Oh the Yazoo and
Mississippi Valley Railroad, comes a
remarkable story of how some thirsty
denizcns of a prohibition town work
ed slick scheme to procure robust
quality of ardent spirits.
A barrel of liquor was shipped to
parties at Eden by Memphis whole
sale liquor house. The brand is said
to be iirst-class, though the persons
who sampled this particular barrel
cannot be induced to say whether it
was up to the standard. The barrel
reached Eden couple of days ago, 1t
was left in the depot over night. When
the depot was opened next morning
the barrel was found 10 be empty,
though it had not been moved, nor
was there any indication that any per-
son had entered the room during the
night.
The disappearance of the liquor was
no less mysterious than lamentable.
But the secret was soon discovered.
The depot is built some seven feet
above the ground. During the night
some persons had bored up through
the floor with an anger. They made
four holes before the auger entered
the barrel, and when at last they tap
ped the liquor, they ran piece of cane
up through the floor and into the bar,
rel, by which means they drew off the
the liquor. Much of the coveted sub
stance was lost in the process. but ev'
identity sufficient was saved to we
a good many whistles.

The South's Future.

The South is destined at no distant
day TO be the most prosperous section of
this country. Thousands of families
have within the past four or five years
moved from the bleak plains of the
Northwest to the sheltered hillsides
and fertile valleys of the vast area
drained by the lower Mississippi and
its tributaries. They now appreciate
the benefits of the exchange. The
Northwest has its destiny of growth,
but the family of small means will
ever find the greatest happiness and
comfort in the climate where the least
capital is absorbed in the mere preser-
walton of existence. In all the States
South of the Ohio river there are
cheap lands which will produce readi-
ly an almost endless variety OF crops
with little labor. Live stock can DO
raised at much less cost than the
Northwest requires. Fruits and vege-
tables produce abundantly. An i'm.
portant movement of population to.
ward the South is certain outcome of
narrow profits in wheat, 1t has be.

Chicago is not contented with hav-

but is reaching out for everything in
sight, notes the New Orleans Picay-
une. Her latest scheme is to make
herself the center of the waterways of
the United States. This she thinks
may be accomplished by the Henne-
pin canal, now under construction
from that city to the Mississippi river,
and by ship canal from the south
end of Lake Michigan to the western
end of Lake Erie at Toledo. The dis
tance is 140 miles, and this cana
would cut off $50 miles of dangerous
lake navigation, saving time, interes
and insurance. The canal, it is esti
mated, could be built for $50, 1000, 900
the interest on which would be NOR,
than saved on freight charges. 1t il
