that Paine's celery compound helped me
and gave me feeling of new strength is
a fact"

l. the story of Treasure Trove Found at
Poultney.
Several days ago James Il. Kelley,
Fred Copeland and Albert Austin of
Fair Haven started with dog and guns
for days sport. hunting in the North
woods.
After a time their dog apparently To-
Gated an animal in some rocks on the
east side of Rattlesnake hill. The hun
tiers started in to smoke out, and after
prying away large boulder from the
mouth Of the hole they built a fire and
were surprised to find good draft and
soon saw smoke coming out of crevice
of the rock several rods away.
i After waiting nearly half an hour
they concluded to investigate and see if
they could not enter the den. Copeland
took fire brand and his gun and crowd
ed into the hole. After few feet it be-
came large enough for him to stand
erect and he was satisfied that a large
cave was before him. He called to his
companions and they soon stood by his
side and then the party advanced far
/ ther into the cave.
/ They found themselves in large room
about 20 feet wide and nearly 100 feet
! long and about 10 feet high. In one
corner of the room there was a large
iron kettle, and near by and resting
against the wall in sitting posture
were five grinning skeletons. The hunt
ers were somewhat frightened at this
remarkable discovery and beat hasty
retreat. But after being few moments
in the open air their courage returned
and they again entered the cavern. This
time they came across quite pile of old
Spanish coin and Immediately proceeded
to carry it to the mouth of the cave.
On their next tour of Inspection they
found in a remote corner pile of
rattlesnakes nearly as large as cock
of hay. They were in torpid state and
could be handled without danger. The
boys soon began to pull them apart and
in the course of an hour had succeeded In
dispatchng 1880 of them and secured
about a half bushel of rattles on which
bounty will be S765. The discoveries
did not modest the skeletons, but brought
away the pile of Spanish gold. The gold
was counted and found to be S2750
This added to the bounty they will get
on the snakes will make S35l5. A large
number of people have visited the cave

and the skeletons have been brought to
town. Prof. Norman examined them
and prOnounces them to be the skeletons
of Indians. 1t has long been known that
early in the l7th century the Indians had
large encempment near Rattlesnake
mountain and many arms, hatchets. and
other implements are annually found
there.
Prof. Norman says that about 1925 a
band of white men came up from the
Connecticut valley, attacked the Indians
in their camp and defeated them. The
professor thinks the Indians were owners
of this cave and took some of their
wounded there, who were abandoned
ana left to die. The coin must have
been placed there many years ago as
none of it bears date later that 1908.
At present it is not known what dis
position viii be made of the skeletons.
Other parties have been searching the
North woods for caves, skeletons, rattle
snakes and Spanish gold, but no fresh
discoveries have been made,-POultney

As spring comes on most women and
many men who have lived dollhouse
lives during the winter, find themselves
unduly fretful, unable to sleep soundly,
without appetite, easily tired. frequently
distressed by headaches, and lacking
"snap" and strength-the result of poor
blood and weak nerves.
TO those in this condition, the thous-
ands of testimonials from people like
Mr.. Guerra who have been benefited by
rane's celery compound, should be
reason enough for giving this best of all
spring medicines at least a trial. What
it has done for others, it will do for the
reader. 1t will purify the blood, clear
the complexion, reiuvenate the exhausted
nervous system, insure good digestion,
bring on healthy sleep, and restore one
strength and vitality.
No other medicine in the world ever
accomplished so much, and a single trial
will add another to the long list of
people in every community who CRATE
fully sound the praises of Paine's celery
compound.

Women Should Know 1t.

Many women suffer untold agony AMI
misery because the nature of their dis
ease is not correctly understood. Thej
have been led to believe that womt
trouble or female weakness of some sOr|
is responsible for the many ills that bd
set womankind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache
puffy or dark circles under the eyed
rheumatism, dragging pain or dul
ache in the back, weakness or bearing
down sensation, profuse or scanty sup
ply of urine with strong OdOr, frequenI
desire to pass it with scalding or burn
ing sensation, sediment in it after stand
ing in bottle or common glass fol
twentyfour hours, are signs of kidne]
and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often al
trlbuted by the patient herself or by he
physician to female weakness or woml
trouble. Hence, so many fail to Obtai
relief, because they are treating, not th
primary cause, which is kidney trouble
In fact, women as well as men ar
made miserable with kidney and bladde
trouble and both need the same remedy

GOV. Theodore Roosevelt of New York
writes t. 81 can conceive nothing more
appropriate than the erection of such a
ball in honor of the great sea captain
whose name stands second to that of
Farragut alone on the roll of the Ameri-
can navy; and if he is given chance at
any other foe, think he will outrank
even Farragut."
Gov. Roger Wolcott of Massachusetts
writes ~ trust that the purpose to
erect a suitable memorial to be known as
Dewey hall in honor of the gallant
admiral who achieved such success and
fame for our navy, may be success sful
1t seems most fitting that such memo
rial should be erected at the university
where he studied and where to all future
students it may serve to perpetuate the
memory of his distinguished services"
Gov. Rollins of New Hampshire-"I
would say that the proposal to erect a
suitable memorial building to be known
as Dewey hall, seems to be an admirable
Idea and | trust it will be carried out"
Senator Chauncey M. Depew-"Admi
raj Dewey is entitled to every honor
which his countrymen can accord to him
There can be no more appropriate me-
mortal of his distinguished service than q
hall at the university where he was
graduated. Besides its value to the in
stitution, 1t would be a perpetual incen'
tive to patriotism to succeeding genera

the money has been returned to Mr. Will
Jams as president of the company, and has
been paid to Mrs Teynac as she ac-
knowledged to you this morning on the
stand"
Mr. Haupt returned to his seat, but
arose a moment later and said:
Il forgot to say, when I stated to you
that l filled in the check, Mrs. Ellen
Teynac, executrix, before I signed my
name as treasurer, that 1 added the words
or bearer AS stated before, Endorsed
it to show that there was no intention
to defraud any one, as 1 was responsible
for the money"
MIR. lIaupt was entirely cool and collect
ed while making his statement and showed
no symptoms of being i'll at ease, either
then or throughout the trial.
Mr. Williams was introduced in rebuttal
of the statements made by Mr.. Haupt with
reference to the check.
The defense having the conclusion Mr.
Hartridge stated that the position taken
by the defense was that the offense with
which the accused was charged was not
forgery as known to the criminal laws OF
Georgia, on the ground that the signature
which was necessary to raise the piece of
paper TO the dignity of a check had not
been given it when the alteration was
made and that the accused could have
added to the check whatever he pleased,
previous to signing 1t as treasurer, with
out committing the crime of forgery.
Solicitor General Osborne said that the
defense was evidently entirely a techni-
cal one. The alteration of the check and
the fact that money had been obtained
upon it, was admitted and the purpose
for which this money was obtained had
been proven. He admitted that it was
necessary for the check to have the sig
natures of the president and treasurer at
the time the alteration was made to con-
stitute the act forgery. The case simply
resolved itself into a question as to whom
the jury would believe, Mr. Williams or
upon this point, making the question one
of veracity between Mr.. Williams and Mr..
Haupt.
Mr.. Hartridge, in his argument for the
defense, said that the offense in question
was not forgery. He made good use of
MIR. Haupt's statement, corroborating It
by the checks and records offered in evil
dence, and argued that Mr. Williams was
undoubtedly mistaken in his assertion that
this check of the Oglethorpe Real Estate
Company TO Mrs. Teynac was complete
when delivered to Mr.. Haupt, when he
had stated that he had at the same time
left a number of checks signed in blank
with Mr.. Haupt for the Georgia Pine
Railway Company.
Judge Falligant's charge was clear ana
impartial, the law being fully expounded
and the course to BE taken by the Jury

tention being clearly indicated.
