Mr.. Hobart says this settlement is
not at all final, ,as it takes two TO make
a bargain, whatever that may mean.
His deputies were engaged today
signing orders for the county clerk to
turn their warrants over to Mt.
Hobart, instead Of drawing the money
themselves. This may be for the
purpose of preparation To further
prosecute the claims.
Mr.. Hobart W disclaims all re-
spOnsibility in the matter, aud says
that the court has practically hired
the deputies and paid them what it
pleased regardless Of the law, hence
he feels no responsibility for their
work.
The court allowed road district No.
20, SIS to be used in improving their
portion of the Salem-Portland road.
Wm. King, Jacob Scott and Charles
Hall were appointed viewers to meet
with the county surveyor on August
10, to locate a county road from the
y. w. cornor OF the donation land
claim of T. J. Smith to the S. w.
corner thereof and to vacate all the
road on the east line of the f. Rates
land.
The court directed the county
clerk to advertise for wood for the
court house-20 cords of fir and 30
cords Of oak.
W. w. Stephene resignation as
superintendent of the poor farm goes
into effect October l, and bids for car
ing for the paupers Of the county will
also be asked.
The court at tUdays session made
The following order;
SIN the matter Of the claim of Pugh
& Gray for changes in the court

A New Flag Pole.

w. H. Dauncey, Wm. Rafter and
Riley Waller today erected a new
flag pole for Banker A. Bush. The
new pole measures 50 feet I inches in
length and is firmly attached to the
top telephone pole near the inter-
section Of State and Commercial
streets, (which makes the pole 1O2
feet from the ground and from which
"Old Glory" will be unfurled on
proper occasions. The top of the pole
is adorned with a large silver ball
about inches in diameter which can
be seen for a great distance. Can it
be that Banker Bush thus recognizes
the ascendency Of the white metal?

THE 111RRIcATIoN TEST

Very few of the millions of peonla who carry watches realize to what a, wonderful extent fabrication is deyel oped, and what an extraordinary number of turns the balance wheel makes with one oiling. A Chestnut street watchmaker, whose knowledge of these wonderful pieces of mechan- ism is not exceeded by any man in this city. has made up an interesting table of comparison to show the perfection of fabrication in watch.
 A watch will run on one oiling from a. year to a year and half. Every min l,te the balance wheel turns on its axis four hundred and fifty times and twen- ty-seyen thousand times in an hour. Accepting a year as the time the ordi- nary watch will run with one oiling, he finds that if the driver of a locomotive was as well oiled as balance wheel of a watch it ought to run sixty miles an ho,1r day and night for six hundred and fortv-eight days, or we'll on to two wears. with one oiling. In that time it vyo1,Id traverse a distance equal to nearly forty times the circumference of the earth.
 Tn view of the fact that in reality few locomotives will run one day without re- oi1inp he maintains that the watch maker has developed his art to far greater degree than the locomotive builder has yet been able to reach Philadelphia Record.

BROUGHT TT ON HIMSELF.

MT. Lease Responsible for his Wife Be- coming a Politician of National Renown
 Those who have been lavishing their sympathy upon poor" MT. Lease the husband of the "uncrowned Kansas queen," should recall 1t at once. MT. Lease does not deserve any sympathy. He brought the trouble on himself There was a time when he was master of his own house, but he voluntarily stepped aside and permitted the mantle to fall on his talkative wife. At one time he actually had temerity to stand up and boldly defy his better half. Not only this but he screwed up enough courage to promulgate an order com- polling his wife to forsake the washtub and kitchen and enter politics, and, what's more, he enforced the order. Whether or not he is sorry he issued the imperial ukase only he can tell, and he won't.
 Mrs Lease entered politics in 1890 And she did so at the solicitation of her husband. Prior to that time she was ansordinary housekeeper. She could do as big a days washing as any woman, could cook fairly well, and keep her lit- tie home neat While doing this she found spare time to post up on reform movements, in which she had always taken natural interest. In 1890 the Farmers Alliance sprang into exist ence, and there she saw an opportunity. She pleaded with her husband to join the movement and develop himself into a politician She told him that it was his chance to make a ten strike. But MT. Lease was not of a political turn of mind.
 Mary. you know that I am no politi- clan; never could make one; could not make a, speech to save my life. It's no use for me to try 1t.
 Mrs. Lease insisted, but he stood firm.
 Then. mindful of the perfect ease with which she could rattle it off to the kids around the house and occasionally to him as well, an idea seized him. ''Why cant you branch out as politician yourself" he said You are A glib talker, have studied the thing some and take an interest in politics"
 Mrs. Lease had never thought of en- tering politics before. Her mind was on the welfare of her family and home. She took the matter under advisement, and in the meantime her husband kept insisting.
 Finally she consented to try 1t. But how she was to get a start was the question She had never made a speech, and no politician had ever heard of her. How, when and where to
The daily morning journal and courier., 1897-07-17

get the first speech off was the puzzle. Finally a neighbor, Dixon, was taken into the deal, and he arranged 1t so that Mrs, Lease could appear before the next Farmers Alliance county conven- ton and make talk, That was in the summer of 1890. She was there on the appointed day, and when all other bus mess of the convention had been fin- ished Dixon called on Mrs. Lease to make @ speech. It didn't take any com- mittee to escort her to the platform. As soon as her name was mentioned she arose and made a bee-line to the stage so as to get the ear of the dele- gates before they started out. Her maiden speech, they say, was a stem Winder. She captured the entire long, whiskered outfit by her eloquence. She was the sensation of the hour. From all over Sedgwick county came de- mands for her to speak, and she was kept busy for several weeks filling those engagements, Her light could not be hidden under bushel. Adjoin- ing counties heard of her and before that campaign was over Mrs. Lease was the best advertised politician in Kansas.
 Her fame spread like wildfre throughout the country, and she was in great demand. She has at last about talked herself to death politically, and must soon be content with household duties again; but she won't have to do the family washing unless she wants to. She has made enough so she can afford to let that job out
 Mrs. Lease. when she had broken into politics, did not forget Dixon. When a member of the state board of charities she had him appointed steward of the Olathe asylum Kansas City Journal.

our party started to work on the circle, one on the west side and one on the south. After some digging on the south side a layer of large black stones was removed, below which the workmen found some half-dozen connections, which are various-sl2ed, roundshaped, solid stonelike formations. By placing two halves of these concretions togeth- CT dish-shaped article was formeo' re- sembling one inverted dish over anoth- CT. believe these were intended as re- oeptacles for small articles of value or sacredness which could be thus hidden and preserved.
 "The entire exploring force then went to work on the south part of this circle After uncovering large deposit or ee- ological and archaeological speciment, to which I will refer later, we uncoV- cred box two feet long by eighteen inches wide, formed of large, flat stones. Within this box were the remains or a cremated skeleton, some burnt bones and perhaps a shovelful of ashes-all that remained of what must have been a great chief among the mound pulld- CTS. AS Dr. Orton laughingly said to me, he must have been a great prehis- torlc geologist.
 We also unearthed on the south side Of the circle fifty-five coneretions, rang ing in size from that of common mar ble to specimens a foot in diameter, III weight from half an ounce to seventy i've pounds. The largest connections were found toward the north. With them were found forty-seven fossils of the variety commonly known as cows horn, two septaria, three fossil plants, one piece of granite. & specimen of quartz crystal and fifty peculiar forma- tions. Among the geological specimens were twelve different. varieties of fossil coral. gfe Y
 With these specimens we found the following relics of the mound builders SIX hammers, five pestles. one tube pipe,, one unfinished pipe. one large stone bead, one gulf shell bead, three paint grinders, ten round paint grind. CTS or plumb bobs, one stone punch ol awl and one unfinished effigy.
 Tn the southern part of the collec. tion of relics found the most impor. tant and interesting object in all this valuable discovery. In a peculiar mus sel-shell shaped box of stone three ant one-half inches In length and three il width, protected by a separate stone cover of similar form, were five mug 1 gets of silver. Three of the latter were coated with some sort of black paint while the other two were covered witt pink ochre.
 'So far as known, this is the only nugget silver ever found in burial. 4 European archaeologist to whom tht relic was shown said that gold hat been found in some of the archaeologi cal surveys of Europe, but, so far as h, knew, native silver has never been dis covered in any of the prehistoric ruin' there. Too much importance cannot b. attached to the value of this unique discovery, which is certainly as aston ishing as it is mysterious. ."-Columbu Letter to the Pittsburg Dispatch.

PREHISTORIC MAN IN OHIO.
He Crenated the Dead and Collected
 Fossil Specimens.

He Cren1ated the Dead and Collected
 Fossil Specimens.
 The most remarkable find of prehis- toric skeletons made for many years was accomplished by Professor Clar- ence Loveberry a few days ago near Ringgold, Pickaway county. The dis covery of the skeletons establishes the fact that the mound builders practised cremation and erected stone cremato- ries to accomplish the desired result.
 Professor Loveberry is the assistant curator of the Ohio State Archaeologi- cal and Historical society. He is one of the most able of the modern school of arehaeologists, and the discovery re- ferred to will bring him lasting fame, for 1t has been equalled only by the fa- nous Hopewell finds. Professor Love- berry relates the story of the find in the following statement over his own sig nature:
 The group upon which worked for several weeks before making the dis coyery of the skeletons of the mound builders is located on the farm of Dil- dine Snyder. The group of mounds is located on hill over one hundred and fifty feet in height, commanding a beautiful outlook over the surrounding valleys and consisting of a stone mound, circle of half stone and half clay, and clay mound, the circle form ing the connecting link between the stone mound on the west and the earth mound on the east.
 "We commenced work first on the earth mound, running trench from east to west ten feet in width. We dug in about twenty-five feet, making an excavation about twenty feet square. At the bottom of the mound we found eight skeletons, the skeletons being those of seven adults and one child With the child's skeleton we found a handsome bone awl and a small piece of graphite. A piece of pottery and some flint knives and disks were found with the other bones.
 Leaving the earth mound, two of
