TIE Columbis State has been call
ing attention to the neglected condi
ton Of very important historical doco-
ments. In Wednesdays issue OF the
State, 10 its local columns, it is stated:
"Scatterea in indi,crjminste disorder
there are numberless old records
originally intended for use by the en-
crossing department." 1t is further
stated that these papers, many OF
them doubtless Invaluable to the State
historian, are "pi!ed in al sorts OF
way: around the room," and "lyipg
loose upon the floor or piled without
apparent order in dry goods boxes
.nd old trunks.''
To say that the neglect Of theae
papers IS shame hardly expresses it.
A great deal has been said recently in
refereace to tho Importance Of LEGAL
hiRtory Of different communities and
of the importance OF history of the
State, tnd yet here il neglected spot
of the Stats House are thrown away
possibly the only source from which
this faithful historian could procure
accurala and definite information. 1t
is folly 10 complain 0! the want Of a
writer history Of tie State when We
are daily destroying .nuch OF the
yalnabj: mato:ial for this his: DRY.

Hat W. PASSED.


IN American dentist in Manila. in :
happy or unhappy moment, conceived
theidca Of providing by public sub,crip.
10 4 grand Christmas dinner for the
United States soldiers garriSoninr the
city. IN the same manner as banners
at home are RECALLED with all the good
things of this life on that day, saws the
ST. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The idea took beyond all expecta-
tons, for when the hat went round the
money flowed in so freely that in a
couple OF days over 5000 was collected.
The soul of the movement waxed en-
thuslastic. And so did the whole Amer
lcan community.
consul Nlldman. in a thOughtless mo-
ment. also allowed himself to be caught
~ the fever. Committees and subcom-
mIttees we're then appointed, and prep
aratlons began to be made in right
n and on a most elaborate scale
for the grand spread.
But the American would-be patriots
counted without their host. who. in the
person Of Admiral Dewey, issued a gen
eral order quashing the whole thing
and ordering the r~efunding of the
money to the subscribers. Admiral
Dewey very sensibIy says that the ac-
ceptance OF a public subscription din
ner is Incompatible with the dignity of
an American sailor, and that the United
states government may we'll be trusted
to look after his comfort. The Ameri-
can dentist is sad. Consul Wildman is
sadder, and the saddest of all were the
troopers and blue Jackets.

HLOCAL INVENTION
Indirectly Inspired Years AgO by
 Bell of inc Telephone.

c. j. Dyer and A. E. Cobb have re- ceived final patent papers for a bottle washing apparatus which they have been perfecting for the past two years Only one man is required to operate the machine, which tt is claimed, will wash six times as many bottles as an ordinary force of three men. Its merit Nike most valuable inventions, also ties in it's simplicity. Con siderable money has been expended in perfecting the plans, but the inventors are confident they will be amply re- paid. MT. Cobb is now constructing a model which will be displayed in about a week. MT. Dyer probably re- ceived his first impetus toward inven- ton from Bell, the telephone inventor In the early '70's MT. Dyer was sketch ting along the great lakes and had his headquarters at Brantford, Canada. While standing on street one day he noticed several groups of men point ing at a young man as he passed along the street By inquiry he discovered the young man lived on farm five miles from the city and that he had extended, what was thought to be, telegraph line from the city to bis place. When his purpose in building the line was made known he of course, was thought to be insane and his friends were very solicitous about him. Young Bell had spent an his money on the project and all he could borrow from his friends, promising to make them rich some day. MT. Dyer also came to the conclusion that he was in a demented state, notwith- standing, his pleasing demeanor and with one exception, appearance of sanity Naturally MT Dyer has since watched his happy career with much Interest, on account of an almost in timate acquaintance.

One day after the system had been
 made complete, Silver Peg" raised
 the required preliminary capital and
 sat in a game fn Tucson. The system
 worked according to schedule and Silver Peg was happy and confident
 He felt that he had that game and all
 other faro games within his grasp. That was the day the earthqua Ike shook Tucson sixteen years ago. Old timers graphically describe its fist appearance in a cloud of dust on the top of the eastern Catainas, the mighty roll of the earth as the dis turbance passed southwest disappear ing in another cloud of dust over the ridge of the Tucson mGSlntains.
 Silver Peg at that momeEs placed all his winnings on the coppered queen. He was about to infict the finishing stroke. If the queen lost he would be in possession of the bank roll. The thumb of the dealer was On the card. There was a rumble and the building rocked. Dealer and play CTS fell over each other in a mad rush for safety The roar of the earthquake passed on and when the wonder of it had subsided, the dealer resumed his place and the players again surrounded the table. The earthquake had not even SnSnu-y moved the tall stacks of chips and the dealer waiting another momeE.- on di-atory, tlltors turned the card. The queen lost and Silver Peg" uttered a howl of triumph. He looked again at his bet, but the copper was gone. Il was the only thing in the house that tcd been disturbed by the earthquake. silver Peg" arose slowly and said :t was a brace game and Prov.- dence stood in with the house. He swore he would never sit in another faro game.
 He continued his hunt for the rich est silver mine on earth until the Sherman law was repealed. Since then he has cherished no other hope tt m Heaven.
