the Things.

the Things.
The discovery that the stranded bark
Framnaes had been stripped of every
thing of value, which was made by Mr..
E. H. Mason, one of the purchasers of
the bark at the recent auction sale, was
closely followed by the discovery of
the things removed from the vessel in
small schooner, the property of Win
ton Greenfield, anchored at the grist
mill. Constable Gaskins, who found
the goods on board the schooner, placed
"Chuck" Brock in charge of them as
Waterman.
During the night Brock left the
schooner and went to his house. While
he was absent, the schooner, with her
pirated cargo, disappeared. Brock
went in pursuit, and found the boat

taken the articles from the Framnaes,
They said that they considered they
had right to anything of value they
Gould get from the wreck, and express
ed their intention of claiming salvage
from the owners for the property they
brought 20 the city. 1t is said that
they have employed lawyer TO repre-
sent their claims.

tugboat visited her. The ropes and
other things that could be moved were
taken off on the schooner. Even the

off and added to the cargo of the
wreckers.

REUBEN HAYSEED.
A True Story of the "Plug" Train,
"Nelghbor" Morgan and
"Reuben."
Written for The BEE.

Written for The BEE.
One day last week when the
Providence accommodation train
No. 10 arrived at Slaughters, a
typical native, dressed in a suit OF
homespun jeans and armed with
the regulation carpet bag and
faded umbrella, ran excitedly up
to "Neighbor" Morgan, the vete
ran conductor and gasped
"Say, Cap, yer reckon I'll hev
time to git er ticket"
"Neighbor" calmly informed him
that he would.
"Whar do you git 'em at1" he
asked, as he rushed wildly around,
and made a dash into the freight
room.
Someone finally captured HIM
and steered him to the ticket win
dow where, after considerable par
leylng, and counting out rusty
nickels and pennies, he secured his
ticket, and made another one of his
headlong rushes to get on the train.
The first door he came to was the
baggage car door, and he unhesi-
tatingly stepped in, but was in
stantly elected by the baggage
master; who, in language more
forcible than elegant, informed him
that he was mistaken.
Once more some kind hearted on
locker came to his rescue and
showed him where to get on. He
assembled the steps as if doubtful
OF their safety and, on reaching the
platform, peered inside and, after
some hesitation, knocked gently
on the door. OF course no one
answered, and once more he raped
loud and long. BY this time every
body inside was smiling, and some
one said "Come in"
Reuben opened the door; reached
up and got his massive straw hat,
and, installing the array of smiles
and winks for welcome, said:
"Howdy dor Howdy we all dor
How's all yer folks ter HUMP"
Then he passed down the aisle,
shaking hands with everybody,
with such interrogatIons as:
elbows yer wheat lookin'1" and
"Got yer corn planted yit1"
"Neighbor" Morgan stood on the
platform with his hands stuffed
deep in his pockets, and watched
Rube's queer antics, while a broad
grin overspread his face, and when
RUDE began shaking hands, he
(Neighbor) turned to a bystander
and said, in his inimitable way:
"My God Almighty, Neighbor,
what do you reckon that fellow will
do next2"
Now there are, no doubt many
who doubt this little tale, but
nevertheless, cit is the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the
truth" If anyone doubts it, just
get "Neighbor" to tell you about it,
which he will do with interest.

Kentucky Crops.

Official reports to the State Com
missioner of Agriculture indicate a
very favorable condition for wheat
unless it should be caught by a
late freeze. The crop is very for
ward. Oats will probably be three
weeks later than the average year,
owing to the continued rainfall
which has interfered with sowing.
Outlook for tobacco is very unfav-
orable. Plants will be late and
scarce. Fruit prospects are bright.
Corn crop will be generally late,
and a continuation of adverse con-
ditions will soon make the situa-
ton serious.

SOME FINANCIAL TALK.
What a Contributor Thinks About
Some Phases Of the Money
Question.

EDITOR BEE:
Never since the agitation of the
slavery question have our people
been so stirred up as they have
been during and since the last
presidential canvass, on the silver
OF money question; but unlike
the slavery question in that it has
more sides to it, and fewer there
be who understand it. Yet, if noise
and buster count for knowledge,
there is not a one-horse editor of a
country paper, (silver) or a school
house politician (silver) but knows
more in one minute on State and
National finance and currency than
Mr.. Carlisle knew all the four years
he was United States Treasurer.
What a burlesque on our intelli-
gence when the buckeye politicians
are our leaders, and presume to
fill our county and State Offices,
unless there is a purpose in keep
ing the facts hidden to delude the
Populace, secure support, and get
Office.
have often asked how could
the free and unlimited coinage OF
silver at any ratio with gold IN
crease our wealth, happiness or
prosperity 1t has never been
answered. The mere statement
that it would do so is no argument.
l could say that the moon was
made of green cheese, but that
would not make it so, and yet such
declaration is not half as foolish
as that the free and unlimited coin
age Of silver would heal the hnan-
cial question, because the former
cannot be denied practically, where
as the latter can be practically and
theoretically denied, and proven as
we'll.
History is a reliable witness. 1t
teaches us that every nation on the
globe having the free coinage OF
silver, passes said coin at, the ratio
the metal value of the. coin bears
to the metal value of gold. The
reason for this is very palpable,
when we remember that gold and
silver are productions OF the mines
and not Of the mechanic; when we
remember their uses in. the arts
and sciences, which forces the val
lie according to supply and demand
as certainly as the needle points to
the pole. We have not taken
into consideration local cause, or
transportation or the expenses in
its uses, ALI of which serve to show
us that double standard OF any
two metals is practically lmpossi-
BILE. The government might issue
an edict. yes, that such should be
so and so, but to enforce it would
be another thing. Forcing a dou-
BILE standard on this country by
law would be a much bigger job
than enforcing the law prohibiting
the liquor traffic, because the for
mer would be unnatural, and the
latter natural. T. &c.
