A TENDERFooT's LUCK.

The revival of operations in Stock

there about fifteen years ago. A young
"tenderfoot" from Boston arrived with
a few hundred dollars i'm money. He
was Immediately spotted as victim
by some sharpers who were looking
for just such an individual on whom to
play their wiles. They held a nom
producing claim on Stockton Hill, and
proceeded to prepare it for the green
one With ore from mines of known
value they fixed the twenty-foot shaft
of their claim, which was named the
Moonbeam. The unsophisticated East
erner fell into the trap and dug up all
he had $3.50, for the claim. After vain
ly endeavoring to get a partner in his
enterprise he started to work it him

concerned except himself, he had not
worked a day until he broke into a

Unyaried Diet.

An amusing story is told Of an old
time soldier who loved liquor better
than food, and was bound to have his
diet according to his taste. 1t was in
the days when British soldiers pro-
vided themselves with rations out Of
their pay. To insure the proper feed
ing of the men strict inspection of
the daily mess was instituted. 1t was
found that unless this was done many
soldiers would go without meat in or
der that they might have money to buy

Donald loved whisky, and could live
very well on oatmeal. Therefore he
eschewed butchers meat. But at the
daily mess it was essential that he
should have meat before him.
For a long time Donald saved his
money, and yet, to all appearance,
lived up to, the requirements. When
the officer went his round Donald had
his mess before him. 1t was tripe,
tripe, and tripe again for change.
"Do you always eat tripe" asked the
inspecting officer, becoming little sus-
picious.

The officer stuck a fork into the dish
before him.
"Well, Donald" he remarked, II nev-

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the

the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently vet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and SUBJ
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative. 9.

Preaching at the Baptist church on

which Rev. Jasper X. Smith preached
last Sabbath morning. Right" said
he, lis defined by the written will of
God, or is written in our hearts and

lie began with the illustration Of
filial love and obedience. Children,
obey your parents in the Lord" Not

from gratitude, but because "It is
right" Mr.. Smith then launched into
a discussion of the prevalent false no
ton that what is right for one is wrong
for another, and fOrclbly illustrated this
erroneous idea by the common belief
that private church member may do
many things which his pastor can
not. In other words, that the rule for

no place in life-neither. in the social,

What is right is right, always and
everywhere, and we should adjust our
conduct according to Right and not vice
versa. Between the right and the wrong
there are no gradatiOns; thing cannot
be more right or more wrong; plainly
stated, whatever is right IS not wrong,
and whatever is wrong is not right.
The right and wrong depend upon no
circumstance; what is once right OF
wrong is always right or wrong. The
right and the wrong are often beyond
the reach of our faculties to discern
but then We can, if we really so desire
learn our duty as did Daniel, who

Median King, Darius, to eat certain

CAPTURED by Madison's Sheriff.

Deputy Sheriff P. b. Broaddus made
very important arrest last Saturday,
a full account of which appears in

"Hon. Z. X. Wilson, late candidate
for county judge, who is accused OF
causing a criminal operation, of which
Miss Eary Cloyd the cook of a London
hotel was the victim, was arrested
through telegram at Richmond, KY,
Saturday night and brought to London
by Deputy Sheriff Richard COlyer, Of
Madison county. The warrant was
changed to murder and in the absence
of Judge Stanberry, Sheriff Lee Nc
Hargue placed him in the county Jail
with an extra guard. When the officer
and prisoner arrived Saturday night a
crowd was at the dedot and to avoid
trouble the train was stopped below the
depot and they got off unobserved.
When seen to-day Wilson stated that
he would be defended by the best legal
talent and that he had the money to
secure it. He was very sorry that Miss
ClOyd had died and said he was en-
route TO London from WiliamstOwu
when he was arrested. His father ar
rived Sunday night.
Miss Mary Cloyd died this morning
and an inquest was held by Drs. PEN
nington, Coldwell and Ramsey, who
found that she came to death through
the attempted operation, which caused
blood poisoning. In her deathbed
statement she left word 10 tell Wilson

CONGRESSMAN DAWSON voted against
Civil Service Reform, and comes under
the lash OF two of the greatest Republi-
can journals in America for so doing.
The Chicago Record says: Let the
classified list alone" But the New
York Sun goes to the marrow in this
characteristic style, and we commend
its language and its consistency to those
Republicans who voted for Civil Ser
vice, but are now dead 'agin' it. The
Sun says:
''The Democratic platform of 1896
opposed life tenure in the public ser
vice The Democrats in Congress
have consequently a perfect right to
oppose the Civil Service law. The Re-
publican platform of 1896 declared that
Civil Service law was placed on the
statute book by the Republican party,
which has always sustained it, and we
renew our repeated declarations that it
shall be thoroughly and honestly en-
forced and extended wherever prac
ticable.'
"Here is a distinct pledge and it can
not be broken hOnorably. The Repub-
Leans in the House who voted to
refuse an appropriation for the Civil
Service Commissioners broke that
pledge. Their performance was not
only oishOnorable, but 1t was miserably
cheap. They knew perfectly well that
the Senate would not concur in any
such business. They knew perfectly
well that the House, after it had had
its cheap kick at the Republican Civil
Service law, would turn around and
vote for the appropriations, as it did
yesterday. This show has been given
before. But the temptation to impress
upon their Office-seeking constituents
that they would help them get Fed
eral job if it were not for this law is too
great for such weak minds TO resist. So
certain Republican Congressman make
merit of splitting at law of which
their national platform Boosted and
which they are bound in honor to sus-
tain.
1--WE have never admired Chinese
Civil Service Reform, but we admire a
good deal less the politicians who try
to break a solemn promise of their
party"
