COUGHS UP THE BULLET
Had Been in Victims Lung for Thirty
Years

LANCASTER, Pa.-Amos w. Stauffer
Of Petersburg, Lancaster county, was the
victim of a peculiar accident during the
rebellion while serving as a member of
Company A, Two Hundred and Third reg
iment, Pennsylvania volunteers, and a
couple of days ago he coughed up a bullet
that entered his body on December 2s,
1864. While the regiment was doing guard
duty at Chapman's farm, a place near
Richmond, Va, two young comrades, Da-
vid Kepperling and John Zecker, playfully
pointed their guns at each other and pulled
the triggers, supposing the weapons were
unloaded. But Zecker's was loaded, and
the bullet passed through Kepperlings
heart, killing him instantly, and after
leaving the victims body 1t struck Stauf-
fer, who was behind Kepperling. In the left
shoulder, from which 1t glanced off, lodg-
ing in the region Of the left lung. There
it remained for over thirty years, but dur
ing a coughing spell that Stauffer had a
couple of days ago he coughed up bull
let, which he now prizes highly as war
relic.

Chicago willing to Concede It

A Boston girl who has been trying to
find out why her bicycle often runs into
objects she tries to avoid thinks she has
solved the problem at last. She says:
1t is hypnotic influence of concentrated
attention, rendering the movements inco-
ordinate, SO that the rider becomes the
victim Of perverted reflexes Of purposeless
effort and the abject subject of an optical
delusion.' And perhaps she is right

The Briber Worse Than the Bribed

The bribe giver is even more guilty than
the bribe taker, and he should be made to
feel the butt end of the law. He is usually
man who has had the advantages of
wealth and education, which only aggra-
vate his guilt and magnify his offense. He
deserves the greater penalty because the
moral and intellectual cultivation he has
received enables him to find his way
through moral perplexities. The source of
corruption is the man who corrupts. And
he should be punished more swiftly and
severely than the man who is corrupted

FOR sALE-ON EASY TERMS; TII6
Little Maggie Gold mining claim, in the
Pinacate mining district, six miles west
of Perris, Riverside county; the best
chance for q practical miner with little
ready money to get hold of q geunine,
producing mine that there Is in Callfor-
MIA today. The Little Maggie has been
worked of and on In primitive, hand-to-
mouth way for several years, but never to
any great depth. Most of the work has
been drifting and STOPPING, 'above tho
water" The water comes In at 90 it.. and
at Is 1T. there Is SO much Of 1t that fur
ther sinking on the vein becomes imprac-
ticable without machinery, which tho
present and former owners, being poor
men, have not been able to buy. But the
gold is there, and whoever will go rs IT.

long. with the ledge in sight every foot
of the way, and we will forfeit $500 IL
there Is a foot of it in which there IL
not gold. The average yield in the aras-
ira, extending over period Of four years,
has been about $50 to the ton Of ore. The
best ore. and the most of it, has been
found at the greatest depth-that Is, be-
low the water level. We are convinced,
not only from our own experience, but
from that Of the Good Hope, the Gavilan
and other mines In the neighborhood,
that depth is all that ia necessary to in
sure a great mine. Neither Of the mines
mentioned had at a like depth with the
Little Maggie anything like the showing
the latter has. And the water, though
troublesome to US, because we lack ma
chinery with which to take care Of 1t, is
in itself valuable. 1t could be sold for
good price any day, though Of course It
will be needed on the property whenever a
mill is put UP. There Is enough to run
ten stamps and possibly twenty. The
property IS in every way an interesting
one We offer 1t for sale simply because
we haven't the means to develop 1t as
1t ought to be to be profitable. We will
sell 1t on the most liberal terms, and give
the buyer every opportunity to 1nvesti-
gate and satisfy himself of its value
before he invests cent. For further
