Death laughs; you never see a solemn

And he plunged his long lean fingers
into a deep drawer full of miscellane-
Gus garments, mumbling to himself
all the while. I stood beside him in
silence, bordering on his words, 'Thou
art old, but merry" What did he
mean by calling me old? He must be
blind, l thought, or in his dotage. Sud

Talking of the plague" he said,
1T is not always wise. 1t did a foolish
thing yesterdays very foolish thing.
1t took one of the richest men in the
neighborhood, young too, strong and
brave; he looked as if he would never

CHAPTER V.

The first thing / did was to repack
| all the treasures l had discovered.
This work was easily accomplished.
For the present I contented myself
with taking two Of the leather bags for
my own use, one full of gold pieces,
the other of jewels. The chest had
been strongly made, and was not much
injured by being forced open. I closed
its lid as tightly as possible, ana drag
ged it to remote and dark corner of
the vault, where | placed three heavy
stones upon it. [ then took the two
leather pouches [ had selected, and
stuffed one in each of the pockets
Of my trousers. The action reminded
mo Of the scantiness Of attire in which
I stood arrayed. Could I be seen in
public roads in such a plight? I ex-
aninGd my purse, which as | before
stated. had been left to me, together
with my keys and card-case, by the
! terrified persons who had huddled me
into my coffin with such scant cere-
mOny. 1t contained two twenty-francs
pieces and some loose silver. Enough
to buy a decent costume of some sort.
But where could [ make the purchase
and how? Must [ wait till evening
and stink out of this charnel-house
! like the ghost Of a wretched criminal?
No! come what would, l made up my
mind not to linger a moment longer in
the vault. The swarms of beggars that
infest Naples exhibit themselves in
every condition of rags, dirt, and
misery; at the very worst l could only
be taken for one of them. And what
ever difficulties l might encounter, no
matter!-they would soon be over.
Satisfied that I had placed Ne brig
and coffin in safe position. I secured
the pearl and diamond pendant I had
first found, to the chain round my
neck. I intended this ornament as d
gift for my wife. Then once more
climbing through the aperture,
closed it completely with the logs and
brushwood as it was before. and ex-
aiming it narrowly from the outside,
saw that it was utterly impossible to
discern the smallest hint Of any en-
trance to subterranean passage, SO
well and cunningly had it been con-
trived. Now, nothing more remained
for me to do but to make the best of
my way tc the city, there to declare
my identity, obtain food and clothes,
and then to hasten with all possible
speed to my own residence.
Standing on little hillock, looked
about me to see. which direction
should take. The cemetery was sit
uated on the outskirts Of Naples
Naples itself lay on my right hand.
I perceived a sloping road winding
in that direction, and judged that if
followed it IL would lead me to the
city suburbs. Without further hesita-
ton I commenced my walk. 1t was
now full day. My bare feet sunk deep
in the dus2 that was hot as desert
sand-the blazing sun beat dowT
fercely on my uncovered head, but ]
felt none of these disccmforts; my
heart was too full of gladness. l could
have sung aloud for delight as I STEP

w. R. Bryan, the gentleman
from Michigan, who went to the
beach last week to inspect the black
sand, states that the sand there is
richer than he expected to find it.
According to his estimate the sand
contains IS in gold and 81 in plati-
mum per ton. The objection he
finds is that there is not sufficient
body of sand to justify working it
by the methods which his company
uses. Mr.. Bryan has become inter
ested in the gold ore from the Dut-
ton district, and in company with
B. F. Jones, went to Little Elk
today to inspect the ledge. If it is
satisfactory to him he will forward
an amount of the ore to Tacoma
where it will be thoroughly tested.

was arrested. He was taken to
Independence and put into Jail, and
was confined there until Thursday.
The man died at 1880 Wednesday
morning, but Logan was not told
of his death until the next day.
On Thursday Logan was arraigned
on a charge of manslaughter, and
was held to the grand jury, which
meets in December. His bond
was placed at So, 900 which was
furnished by his father, S. A. Logan,
and Lester Waugh. At the pre-
liminary hearing the defense was
that the blow struck by Logan was
on the back part of the head and
neck, and the doctor testified that
the blow that caused the death was
on the right temple and cheek. Of
course there was some conflicting
testimony regarding the fight, but
under the examination of the grand
jury this will be pretty thoroughly
sifted.
1t seems to have been one of
those hop yard rows that are liable
to occur in any yard, and the
Lebanon people were clearly the
aggressors. The fight took place
at the Toledo boys camp, and the
others had come there for a row.
Of the Toledo boys that were in
the fight none were over 1e years
of age, Allen Logan being only a
little past I6. The Lebanon par.
ticipants were all grown men, two
of them young men. Sylvester is
said to Rave been man nearly six feet
tall, and strong, stout man.
The affair is very unfortunate
one, and no matter what the ter.
mination is, it will probably teact
all of the participants therein ;
severe lesson.

THE ZEAL TROUBLE.

The Corvallis Times says that
the state is in need of reformatory
for the care, correction and saliva
tion of certain class of young girls.
and refers to the girls who elope,
fall from virtue, and who commit
all kinds of indiscretions. We be-
lieve that an institution of the kind
asked for by the Times would be
powerless to arrest or curtail the
evil mentioned. The fault lies with
the parents and with society. 1t
has become so common that it is
an universal rule now for mothers
to implicitly teach their girls that
they are better than their parents.
In how many homes today can one
find the mother and the daughter
toiling side by side at the wash tub
or other house work? In some
homes you can, but in homes of
this kind you will find the girls
quiet and we'll behaved. 1t is from
the home where the mother tolls
and sweats to do all the horse
work and drudgery in order that
"Gwendoline" may have beautiful
hands and pink, pale complexion
that the wayward girls come ON,
as rule. The girls, just the same
as the boy, that is kept busy at
study or healthful recreation, does
not find time to ruin mind aud
character by reading demoralizing
books and papers and paradiny Re
streets with loud and evil compan-
ions. Again. parental care as 10
associates is entirely too slac'.
Many mother would be woe.r,ly
shamed to have her daugh er %
upon the street in soiled SKI 6,
yet will let her associate in public
and private with soiled companiol
both male and female. Until there
is radical change of public senti-
ment; change from the present
moral laxity regarding such as
sociations, it is useless to talk Of
reformatory institutions. In nine
cases out of ten the reformatory
institution should be for the parents
instead of the children. When
parents awake to the terrible fact
that it is an injury instead of a
kindness to raise children to idle
!; ness, and to surround them with
worthless, trashy dime novels and
cheap, sensational papers; and
when parents learn to exercise the
same care and prudence in the
associations of their girls as they do
in the environments of their stock
then the necessity or desire for
such an institution as the Times
calls for will have vanished.

The school board of the Toledo
district seems to be a little slow
this fall about making arrangements
for the fall and winter term oi
school. No meeting of the board
has been had yet, and no teachers
have been hired. 1t seems to us
that the board should hold meet
ing at once and set a time for the
school to start, and hire the teachers,
and then all interested could govern
themselves accordingly.

THE HOP YARD ROW.
Further Particulars of the Killing OF
Enoch Sylvester Near Inde-
pendence.

The further particulars of the
fatal row at Hedges hop yard near
Independence, in which Enoch
Sylvester was killed, have come to
hand and it makes it appear much
more favorable to the young de-
fendant, Allen Logan, than the
trst reports were. The particulars
OF the case, as we have been able to
learn them, are as follows: The
feeling had first started over an old
horse, owned by one of the crowd
of pickers from Lebanon. Both
crowds, the Lebanon crowd and
the Toledo crowd had been guying
each other, and the horse had been
the principal topic, and the Lebanon
crowd had sent word that they were
coming over to clear the Toledo
crowd out. That night it had been
agreed by some of the Toledo boys
to go to dance at a neighboring
hop yard, and one of the pickers in
the yard was to furnish the horse
and take Allen Logan's buggy and
they would 60 to the dance. The
young fellow had gone after his
horse, and some of the Toledo boys
looking up the road saw him return
I ing without it, and he remarked to
one of the boys in the camp that
there comes the man, but where is
the horse" The camp of the one
of the Lebanon parties was only a
short distance away, and one of the
Lebanon men happened to hear the
remark about tie horse, and he
jumped to the conclusion that they
referred to the Lebanon horse. He
at once began to abuse the Toledo
boys and calling them vile names,
and whole crowd of the Lebanon
people came over to the Toledo
camp to "clean it out" After
some talk back and forth on both
sides the row was started by one OF
the Lebanon men, young man Of
22 or 20, striking Geo. Chambers
in the face. George and the fellow
went at it and at the same time
Ralph Van Cleve and another Of
the Lebanon fellows started to fight
Fred Burns then came up and
started to part George Chambers
and the man he was fighting with.
1t was then that Sylvester, the man
who was killed, got into the row.
He rushed in and struck at Burns
to keep him from separating the
fighters. Burns then let George
and his man 60 and turned his at
tention to the man who had attacked
him. The fight became general
and it was at this time that Allen
Logan struck the blow with the hor
pole. Sylvester dropped to the
ground and Logan stepped back
and dropped the pole. Meantime a
great mob of the Lebanon pickers
and their friends had gathered and
they began to shout, "hang him,
"kill him." and took after Logan,
and the latter seeing that he had nc
chance with such mob ran towards
the house of the man who owned
the yard, some twenty-five yards
away. The crowd followed him
there, and two grown men TOOK
him by the hair and dragged him
back to where the fight had occur
red. The crowd quieted down, and
Logan was released. Sylvester,
still unconscious, was taken to his
own tent, and a doctor sent for.
The doctor examined him and said
that nothing serious had occurred,
and that the man would be all right
in the morning. The Toledo boys
went to the dance as first planned,
and il was at the dance. about II
