cold Dlscoyered In Taylor Comfy.
About 40 years ago, Thomas
Newton, of Simpson, Taylor conn
ty, received proposition from a
neighbor to trade farms with him,
and while looking over his neigh
boris farm with view of trading,
he picked up peculiar kind of
rock, which upon examination he
believed to be gold quartz, and SO
eager was he to trade for the farm,
that he prevailed upon his wife
(who was opposed to the deal) to
90 with him and see for herself;
however Mrs. Newton could not
agree with her husband that it was
better for them to give a well-im-
proved farm for one that was not,
and the deal.was off. This winter
Alf Newton, nephew of Thomas
Newton, became interested in the
story and having been directed
how to find the place by Mrs. New
Ion, who has survived her husband
he instituted search and was sue
cessful in finding the place, and
the samples brought home were at
once recognized by Mrs. Newton as
being the same that her husband
discovered 40 years ago.
Mr.. Newton has formed n COM
pany composed of himself, Thos.
Newton and Joseph Barnes, and
they have leased the land from a.
Armstrong and have force of men
at work. The ore has not been as
sayed yet, but Mr.. Barnes, who lisa
gold and silver miner of IL years
experience, is very enthusiastic
pronounces it gold quartz. Mr. b.
is an Incorporating free silver
man but if he should succeed in
his enterprise, we suspect that his
views would undergo very mate
rial change Grafton Leader
Uuerances Of Americans Leaders.
Gold and silver at rates fixed by
congress constitute the legal stand
ard of value in this country, and
neither congress nor any state has
authority to establish or displace
the standard. Congress has no
power to demonetize silver; no pow
er to demonetize either than to
demonetize both Daniel Webster.
No power was conferred on con-
gress to declare that either metal
should not be money.-James q.
Blaine.
Gold and silver should be put
upon perfect equality as of
yore, in the ratio Is to L. All the
gold and silver can be produced to
our minis should be coined alike.
The coin should be kept in the
vaults of the treasury and certifi-
Gates given in all cases whore GER
tificates are preferred. These coin
certificates should be the currency
of the country. They would be
the BEST IN the worlds Alexander
FL. Stephens.
AS result of the war corpora
tions have been enthroned and an
era of high prices will follow; the
money power will endeavor to pro-
long it's reign until wealth is ag-
gregated in the hands of a few and
the republic be destroyed. Abra-

The man who deserts his party,
goes over to the enemy and then

mands some office in consideration
of his "fop," is evidently in it for
spoils alone. It's not very encour-
aging to the genuine party worker
that he should be ignored after his
services for long years, to make
room for the new recruit who gives
no guarantee that he will remain
long in the ranks, if he is not thus
paid for his change of heart. This

THE PRESS AGENTS DREAM.
Romance of Three Nations Evolved and .
Brother and Sister United.

Making all due allowance for the in
genuity of the press agent, a nearby pleas
ure re-ort has succeeded in developing a
romance. The heroine is Birdie Lewis, q
performer in water show ut the resort.
According to the story sworn to, with
many oaths, by the press agent, Birdie
Lewis real name Is Carlotta Lawson. She
was born near Cork, Ireland. When
years old, her parents died. Her only
brother, Raymond, who was two years her
senior, was taken TO Australia by an
uncle and she was sent TO school in Dub
lin. That was 20 years ago.
Then the romance begins. Birdie didn't
hear from her brother and believed him &c
be dead. She came to this country three
years ago.
The brother, Raymond, in the meantime
removed To Queensland, Australia, and
grew rich as a ranch owner A short time
ago the rich ranchman decided TO return to
his native country to see il he could get
any trace of his sister He was unsuccess-
ful and started home by way of this coun-
try. He landed last Saturday. He went
to the pleasure resort. BY chance he Wis
tied the water show just rs his sister was
doing her turn in tho water. Then there
was mutual recognition and the romance
ends. New York Journal.

BROKE OUT OF JAIL.
Tella, Who Stabbed His Wife at
Bristol, Goes Free.
Sawed His Way Ont and the Authorities
Arc Now Looking for Him.

Michael Tella, who was confined in jail
at Bristol awaiting trial for the stabbing
OF his wife, broke jail this morning about
half past three o'clock, by saving off
one of the iron bars on the east side OF
the prison, and breaking pane OF glass.
He escaped with nothing but his trousers
and shirt on. He left his hat, shoes and
coat on the Jail floor. Sheriff Cady, who
is keeper of the jail, was aroused by the
noise of broken glass, but did not appear
soon enough to arrest the fugitive. He
notified the night patrol and Captain
Dimond with officer Dwyer proceeded at
once to small village in the woods on
the outskirts of the town where a num-
ber of families of Italians live, but could
get no clue to the missing man. They
then secured the woods until late this
morning. Sheriff Cady and officer ar
rested a man in a house on Thames street
who, they are sure, is an accomplice OF
the fugitive. Considerable excitement
prevails here, as Tells Is looked upon as
desperate character.
