A Story Of Frank Thomson.

A Philadelphia colored barber tells this
story of President Frank Thomson of the
Pennsylvania railroad: ale is one of the
most genial and natural men that ever sat
in my chair, and I've shaved the faces of q
good many big men, I can tell you. He IL
affable to the point Of talking with US in
the pure negro dialect and, pom honor, he
can do our tongue to Il. Good hearted9
Well, you'd better believe til Why, when
one of our craft who used to shave him got
into money trouble and was about to lose
his shop, he went out to Mr. Thomson s.
country place to see If he couldn't get a
temporary lift over the affair Mr.. Thorn
sons servant colored man--turncd him
away. But his master ehanced to overhear
the talk at the door and called the man in.
sure as you're sitting there Mr.. Thomson,
after listening to that mans story, handed
him $50 bill, merely saying as he did so,
4 want you to return the money when
you are In position to do so.' That
money was all paid back. No worthy man
ever called upon Frank Thomson in vain.
No place IL too good for him, and you can
just bet he will fill any place he is in too"

Frankfort. KY. April ia--The local
grand Jury Is going deeply into, the
bribery charges against Hunter and

Captain Gaines, who swears that DIR.
Hunter came to his house on the night
mentioned. was called, and afterward
his wife went into the juryroom.
part of Hunters testimony was
reiteration Of his public statement that
he had never seen Gaines and never
was in his home In his life. The jury
adjourned for the day without bring
ing any indictments or other report.
1t Is reported that the investigation
Will take a wider scope at todays
session.
Meanwhile the harm, IL any, done
Hunter by these charges and their
publicity are In measure discounted
by break between the Blackburn
Democrats and the gold Democrats.
The latter have been assisting In break
ing quorum, because Of the imminent
chance of Hunters election. They say
that they Will do SO no longer, because
the Blackburn Democrats will not help
or agree to try to help elect Martin
or any other compromise candidate,
and because they are pledged to some
kind Of an election, which will be i'm
possible so long as quorum is averted
They promise to begin voting today
on every ballot. This will force all to
vote, and with all voting Hunter needs
but one really new vote to secure hia
election. This, with all voting. is IL
able to come at anv moment from
some of the three factions opposing
Hunters election.

Castalia, o. April 13.-The discovery
of a vast subterranean passageway
here has caused many visitors to in
spect new cave in the past few days.
The cave is situated at the source of
Castalia creek, and extends underneath

splendor of the interior is marvellous
