A VINEGAR SPRING.
An Important New Enterprise Established
in Tennessee.

in Tennessee.
A new enterprise is being promoted III
Obion county, Tenn, which will be one
of the most wonderful in the world. 1t
comes with the discovery of Il vinegar
spring on the famous Reelfoot lake by
Pete Bennett of Paducah. Ky, while on
hunting expedition. This was prob
ably six months ago.. and Mr.. Bennett
seeing the vast possibilities in such Il
spring, kept the matter a profound Sc
cret until he could get sufficient capital
interested in order to make its develop
mcnt assured He was successful in
getting Sir William Binceford, a multi
millionaire of London, interested. and
the organization of the Vinegar Spring
and Picking company, with Mr.. Bennett
as president and S. D. Cochran, on
whose land the spring is, as secretary
and treasurer, is complete.
1t is proposed by this company that
they make a garden spot of several thou
sand acres of the fine land that sur
rounds this spring and plant the whole
of it in cucumbers The vines will be
trained to run in trenches between the
rows of hills, and when about half
grown, by means of irrigation, the vlne-
gar from this spring will be rnrned
vines until the cucumbers are grown,
when it will be turned off and the finest
of the pickles will be gathered and bar
relied for shipment. The company will
then buy 5000 head of hogs to eat the
pickles refused for shipment and to
wade in the vinegar marsh, so chat at
time of slaughter they will not only ship
bacon, shoulders, hams ETC., but can fill
all orders for picked pigs feet on short
five-barrel lots.-Memphis Commercial

BURIED SHIPS.
They Were Found Under a Portion of
Dublin by Sewer Workmen.

They Were Found Under Portion of
Dublin by Sewer Workmen.
The excavations in connection with the
main drainage works have resulted IN
some discoveries of considerable interest,
particularly to the antiquarian. Unfor-
tunately those who came on the finds
are not enthusiastic searchers into the
secrets of the past. and they did not
overeXert themselves in the work OF IN
vestigation. When the trench for the
main sewer at Upper Ormond quay was
being dug, the diggers came on an old
ship, which was buried in the ground,
some twenty feet down, nearly opposite
the head of East Arran street. The d.
rection of the ship was at right angles
to the quay wall, the bow projecting to-
ward up river.
The vessel was evidently swallowed
I'D III the sands which formed the banks
We're built. The width of the ship is
fifteen feet. It's length is an unknown
quantity, for those who found the vessel
simply cut away as much as was neces-
sary to construct the sewer. Even It's
depth was not ascertained, because the
bottom of the new sewer is only some
two feet underneath the point where
the gunwales of the boat begin, and the
Workmen did not go to Il greater deptn
than they were compelled for main drain
age purposes. The material of which the
ship was made is oak, but owing to its
long stay i'll the ground the wood is
stained almost black.
n peculiar feature in the construction
Of the vessel is that the timbers are al
most all fastened together by means or
oak plugs, there being very little IRON
employed. From the charred appearance
of the deck timbers it is considered prob
able that an attempt was made TO set
fire to the ship. but the fire did not
spread, as the side timbers show no
traces of burning. Near the top Of the
ship was found quantity of coal, and
a 14-DOund cannon ball was also dlscOv-
cred. Higher up the quay, almost OPP
posite the city shcriff's office, another
ship was found. This one, which lay
in the direction parallel to the quay wall.
had also evidently been swallowed up by
the sands which used to border the l!lf-
fey in it's progress through the Dublin
Of other days The same peculiarltles
of construction. as were observed i'll the
case of the first ship were noticed in that

appear to have been an attempt to set the

The workinen express their belief that
the ships are as old rs the days of Brian,
the latter name being rather familiar
reference to the conQucror OF Clontarf.
The presence of a cannon ball would
seem to do away with this theory. Tor
at the time of this historic conflict fire
arms were unknown and the gentle art
of projecting heavy missiles at ones fe-
low creatures by means of artillery was
not employed for the spread of civiliza-
ton until Brian the Brave had been in
the grave for several centuries. 1t is
proba BILE. however, that the ships arc at
least as old as the time of King Charles

Terrible Experience of Edward DOull in

while lost during storm in the Cariboo

compelled to endure the pangs of hunger,
but the anguish of exposure to the in

When found, Doull was in Il pitiful con-
dition. His feet were frozen badly and he
was SO weak from continued exposure
that he could not have survived another
night.
On November II Doull. who is an en-

the northeast side of the range. He pro-
ceeded rapidly and in safety until he
reached the summit of the mountain.
Then binding snowstorm began. Doull
lost his way. When the storm ended the
snow had changed the contour of the
mountains so that Doull was unable to
tell his whereabouts. The thermometer
remained almost stationary at Is degrees
below zero while Doull was wandering

A BOYS TENACITY OF LIFE.
Frank Richards Walked Quarter Mile
Alter q Bullet Pierced His Heart.

Alter a Bullet Pierced His Heart.
In connection with the death at Hart
ford, Conn.,, of Frank Richards, a 0-year-
old boy who was shot with a rifle, there
was developed a remarkable fact. The
lad lived ten minutes, and was able to
walk to his home after his heart had
been pierced by the ball. Young Rich
ards and companion of about the same
age had been amusing themselves in the
afternoon with the rifle, in an open field
near his home after having returned
from hunt in the woods. He had placed
the weapon, which was cooked carelessly
on the ground, and was scrambling about
the lot with his playmate when, in an
inexplicable way, it was discharged, and
the ball ploughed through the boys neck.
1t passed into his chest and pierced his
heart. Without assistance and without
an cutlery young Richards leaped to his
feet and ran about a quarter of mile
to his fathers house. with the leaden
missile in his heart. Arriving at home,
he was still strong enough to walk to a
couch. He sank doyn Oh it, and died 4
few minutes later, before the arrival Of
DR.. J. S. Johnson. The doctor said he
had never met with a parallel case ex-
hibiting so great tenacity of life. AT
first he could hardly believe that the boy
had returned unaided after being shot.
