Mrs. Deacon, to prevent the finding
Of her husband guilty Of murder and
to do everything possible to secure his
actual acquittal, did not put in any
testimony exposing the perjury Of the
hotel clerk. Nor did she offer testimony
as to her husbands excessive use of
liquor and drugs. Such testimony
would only endanger her husband. If
she had told the truth her husband
might have been convicted of murder.

Mrs. Wilson next conducted her in
terviewer to the sitting-room, where 1t
appeared a grewsome discovery had
been made. The floor in one corner, it
seems, had been very uneven, and a
day or two ago Mrs. Wilson took up
the bricks, with the intention of relay
ing them. No sooner had she done this,
however, than n most disagreeable odor
was omitted. Her suspicious being
aroused, she called her husband and
the two commenced minute examina-
ton. Three or. four bones were soon
turned over, together with a gold ring
and several pieces of old black silk.
All these had evidently been buried in
quicklime, the bones and silk being OBJ
viously burnt Herewith. The search
after this was no further prosecuted,
but quantity OF sand introduced and
the floor quickly leveled again.
Asked what her own opinion was on
the mysteries, Mrs. Wilson confidently
asserted her belief at some time or
other foul play had taken place. She
was fully persuaded in her own mind
with regard to the apparitlon, for
though 1t was suggested she might
have been mistaken she disdained the
idea as being beneath notice. DIR.
Gray, to whom the bones were submit

In estimating the workings of the
Dingley tariff as revenue producing
measure some facts and considerations
should be taken into account that do
not readily present themselves to mind,
but which are OF the highest value
when properly weighed.
The Democrats have been pronounc-

cans have seemed for the most part
to be In doubt as TO Its fiscal operation.
Almost the only thing that seems to be
sure and undIsputed by either Demo
Gratis or Republicans Is that the law
has proven entirely successful as a
measure In the interest of protection.
But as to revenue? The American
Economist has been at some pains to
search for light on this subject, and
from the eminent tariff expert, Mr.. w.

Treasury, some statistical information
has been obtained that will not fail to
be received as pertinent and convinc-

A Grewsome Discovery and the APP
partition that Followed.
From Halton Holegate, village near
Spilsby, Lincolnshire, comes a most
mysterious story, which one can easily
imagine Is causing the utmost sensa-
ton among the simple country folk In
the neighborhod. For some time
rumors Of human bones having been
discovered under brick floor Of a
farmhouse near the village, of strange,
unearthly tapping and the like having
been heard and of ghost having been
seen, have been afiOat, and 1t was with
the intention, IL possible, of sitting the
mystery to the bottom that a Lincoln
reporter has just visited the scene.
The farmstead where the weird sounds
are said to have been heard and the
ghost seen stands back some distance
from the high road and is occupied by
q Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson and their man
servant. Mrs. Wilson narrated the fol-
lowing story:

one was moving all the things about in
a hurry downstairs. Another time the
noise was like heavy picture falling
from the wall, but in the morning I
found everything as right as it was
the night before. The servant man
left, saying that he dare not stop, and
we had to get another. Then about six

the orchestra strikes up the national

are not aware of their presence. If the

visit Is formal one and the audience

@Afuch as has been written concerning

Although sugar cane is indigenous
In Hawaii, little attempt was made 70
ward its cultivation until 1885, when
u plantation was started at Kauai, and
several sugar mills were built. These
mills were worked by the aid of mules
and oxen, and the process was slow
and laborious. What a contrast to the
mills of the present day, where the
cane is taken and made into crystals
OF sugar. There is no royal road to
wealth in Hawaii, and any one who
anticipates such condition had bet
ter stay away. No man can go about
blindfolded and pick up dollars in the
streets, but no country offers better
opportunity and final reward for hon
est. earnest and constant labor. Espe-
eially is this true in the coffee indus
try. The pretty homes and coffee
areas of Olaa are an evidence of this.

Give Reciprocity a Trial.

Reciprocity has been proved to be
one of the popular principles Of the
Republican party, having received a
very general Endorsement by the mer-
chants and manufacturers Of the coun-
try. During the present period of COM
mercial expansion made evident by our
large gains in exports it is likely to be
more popular than ever. All the cir
cumstances seem favorable for giving

the revenues to be reasonably antici-

the only language as means Of com
