HER TALE OF WOE HAD A GOOD EFFECT.

hHh TALK OF WOE HAD GOOD EFFECT.
James Holt, near Branchville, Ind, while
intoxicated, went home last Saturday night
and kicked the stove over burning down
the little one-room log shanty which shell
tered his family, after first blackening his
wifes eyes and otherwise dislguring her
lace. The next day Mrs. Holt appeared at
the little church whore the family occasion
ally worshipped, and requested permission
to address the congregation, and then she fol-
lowed with a pathetic talk on the evils OF
strong drink, making many allusions TO her
own battered features in proof OF what she
was saying. In the audience was "Bud"
Robertson, the only whisky dealer In the
township. After she had concluded, Mr..
Robertson approached Mrs. Holt and ten
dered $40 toward re-establishing her In a
home, and he vowed that he would never
again sell another drop. That evening he
emptied the contents OF his several casks on
the ground, despite the pleaiings OF a dozen
thirsty friends, TO whom he refused drink.

OLD HOG MONEY.
How Bermuda Happened to Get Her
Peculiar Currency.

From the Philadelphia Enquirer.
FOG money is rather queer name for
currency, is it not? Yet that is the name
by which the brass money which began to
be struck in Bermuda in 1915 came to be
known. one one face of it was hog,
on the other ship of that period. They
are very rare and highly priced by col
lectors
The history of the device is curious and
interesting. A Spanish vessel, command
ed by Juan Bermudez. was on its way TO
Cuba with a cargo of hogs, was wrecked
there. This was in 1915. Later in the
same century, when the English dscov-
cred this land, they found a country inhab-
tied 10y hogs.
1t is also interesting to note that the
English discovered it in the same way as
the Spauiards An English ship was
wrecked there. Is 1t any wonder that the
treacherous coast got from Spanish and
English alike the name Of Devils Land
Yet 1t is one of the most beautiful coasts
in the world, and it has been claimed that
in briliancy, Mediterranean effects are
not at all equal TO those of Bermuda. Ber-
muda is said 10 be the island of Shakes
peares Tempest" The strange noises
which mariners heard coming from this
island. and which they did not then know
were produced by hogs, caused them to
say that il was haunted and TO report
weird things of it.
While we are talking about Bermuda,
We might as well tell of the queer way in
which the people there get their building
material The houses are all built of cor
aline rock. When man wants to build
a house, he cuts his plank out of his
ground and builds away. If he wants a
plank for anything he goes to the side of
his yard and cuts out slab He seems to
~. l.. NlHFs
is going to look. There are big and little
quarres all about in Hamilton, which is
the capital.
Another thing about Bermuda which Is
not written in our histories, and which
you might care to know, is the way she
helped us in the revolution. One hundred
barrels of good British gunpowder went
from Bermuda to Boston In 1776. If you
go to Bermuda you VIII have pointed out
to you in the quaint old town of st. George
the exact spot from which that very use
full powder was taken by the ,colonlsts,
with the connivance of the local govern
mcnt at Bermuda. The powder was sup
piled in response TO a letter from Gen.
Washington, who emphasized the adVan-
tages which might accrue from CONNER
cial atoms, between Bermuda ana the
colonies and suggested that these rela-
tons could he further strengthened by
timely assistance in the way of ammuni-
ton. Great Britain kept then, as now,
large military stores at Bermuda. 1t was
whispered at the time that Bermuda
thought of casting her fortunes with the
colonies. However that may have been,
she is loyal enough now to the British flag.
1t is a pretty thought that she now sends
US Easter lilies where once she sent us
gunpowder. Raising Easter lilies for the
New York market is a favorite industry
in Bermuda, and fields of Easter lilies
there are no uncommon sight.

HEssER's $1,000 INSURANCE.
All of the Money He Had When He
Left Savannah Accounted For.

All of the Money He Had When He
Left Savannah Accounted For.
All of the money paid to Deputy Sheriff
Simon Hesser before he left on his fatal
trip to take the insane German sailor
Franck back to Germany has practically
been accounted for.
Hesser had 3d. 900 insurance on his life.
1t was thought at first that he had al
lowed the policy to lapse, notice of the
premium falling due being found among
his effects. Steps are being taken now to
collect the policy. The $1,000 will be a
great boon to Mrs. Hesser and her chill
dren.
Capt. John r. Dillon, on finding the pre-
MUM notice, investigated the matter and
found that Hesser had paid his premium,
amounting to about 49, just before he left
Savannah. The policy was taken with
Mr.. A. c. Harmon of the Travellers of
Hartford. This accounts for practically
every cent which Hesser had previous to
his departure from Savannah. He was to
receive 500 for his trip with Franck, and
$37 for incidental expenses, all of which
was paid him before he left the city, tick
cts being also furnished for himself and
his prisoner. Hesser gave his wife $50 of
the amount paid him, and paid his in
surance premium of $16 The sum of $26 10
was found on his person and turned over
to Capt Dillon by the coroner at Balti-
more. This amounts to $102.10. Hesser
bought some clothing for his trip before
leaving Savannah, and, in addition, had
undoubtedly spent some CT the money for
personal and incidental expenses.
