Manila Cigars,

Cigar dealers who have large sur plus stocks of Cuban and other tobaceos on hand are keeping an eye on Manila as @ s>urce of the American tobacco supply in the near future. Manila cigars are cheap; the best of them can be bought at the native stands for five cents each, and 8 very good smoke can be had at the price of the de- bspised two-for. The old cone shaped Manila cigar, or cheroot
 which was supposed to give the best smoking when lit at the thin end, is rapidly growing out of fashion, and modern shapes are taking it's place. The Americans in Manila are taking kindly to the tobacco. in the form of both cigars and cigaret. tes, and it is predicted that as soon as the Manila cigars are introduced in the States they will become the rage. It is quite likely that steps
 may be taken to prevent the ex- portation of the bad qualities of tobacco, which in times past have given bad reputation in this ceun- try to the Manila lproduct. There are eight large cigar and cigarette factories in \ anila. which employ from 400 to 2,C00 operatives each. Beyond these houses, which confne themselves mainly Gs the higher grades of the market, thero are nearly 100 smaller factories.

THE "LOST CABIN"
4 Long Sequestered Mine Near Yuma
 Believed to Be RediscOVered.

w. P. Carter arrived at the Ford hotel last night from San Bernar- dino. He said an old prospector told him that there had been dis covered what was thought to be the Lost Cabin" mine. He was asked about the miue and told the story
 A number of years ago when the country was sparsely settled and Indians roamed in large bands, q party of prospectors equipped an outfit at Yuma and started on a prospecting tour. They went west over the desest and had great trouble with the Indians from time 10 time. In an attack one night they were driven off their course, but they retained d general idea of their location.
 The next morning at day ybreak one of the men started out in quest of wood and when he returned he displayed specimen of quartz he had discovered. The miners i'm mediately went to work on the property which developed into mine of fabulous wealth. They worked it for some time, finding water in the vicinity, and Tn the meantime masstd their wealth, amounting to thousands of dollars in one general fund, with the agree ment that 1t should be distributed equally when they arrived at the first settlement. Their stock of provisions was running low and with their agreement in view they started out one morning to return to civilization and they packed their gold dust on two burros
 Before travelling many miles they were surprised by a band of Indians. They succeeded, however, in hiding their treasure in a crevice at the foot of 6 dwarfed tree, but the on slaught of the Indians was so heavy that only one man escaped mas sacre He poeketed small amount of the gold dust and on small piece of bark drew crude map of the surroundings. After wondering about the desert for a few days his provirions and supply of water gave out, and he could discover no trace of civilization. The tense condi- ton of his mind, together with great thirst he experienced, at last drove him mad and it was in that state that he wandered one evening into the settlement of Yuma. For several months they could get no information from him, until one day his rawlings ceased. Gradually he recalled to memory the previous circums tances, but from the mo- ment of his madness his mind was d blank. He could remem Der the landmarks at the mine and describ- ed it accurately, but beyond that his knowledge of the location was meager
 A searching party was immediate lv organized to look for the lost property, but it met with no sue cess. On various occasions Indians came to town with large quantities of gold and it was thought that they had discovered the buried treasure as we'll as the location of the dIggings.
 Mir. Carter explained that the mine re ported to have been found answers perfectly in description to the lost mine, but he has heard no mention of it's wealth. The tun- nels are caved in and the mouth is fortified. Also bullet marks have been discovered near the place. Republican

BENTON. LOUISIANA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER Is, 1899.

At this point the color deepened on
the old gentleman's forehead and a
deep breath like sigh expanded his
glistening shirt front.
"Of course, paid her back, every dol
lar, with interest" went on his
thoughts, "apd l meant to keep my
promise of marriage, too. 1t was Abby
herself who broke the engagement
when she found out that loved another
girl better. 1t was the right thing. She
did not seem to take it much to heart,
either; but she never married. At least
l never heard that she did. It is 25
years or more since saw the old place.
There was nothing to draw me there

wonder what become of Abby! Dead,
probably. She would be an old woman
if she were iving-not SO very old
either. She was two years younger
than I, and I am not yet turned 65-"
A clerk came in and laid telegram
on the desk. The ola gentleman took
it. The steely look came back to his
eyes.
The old woman in the black shawl
was still standing on the street ca<ner.
She looked tired and anxious, ana the
plants in the basket had wiltet sad

A policeman on the corner had scowled
at her unpleasantly two or three times,
and Aunt Abby felt almost ready to
drop, what with the heat and the ia.
tigue and the dread that the police
man might speak to her, and she be
hopelessly disgraced thereby.
Suddenly her face broke into de.
lighted smile. A ruddy, youngish man
came hurrying up to her.
"Wall, there!" exclaimed Aunt Abby
as he shook hands with her and kissed
her, and began asking questions and
answering them all in the same breath
''Wall, there, now, William Henry, il
that don't beat ALI"
Then she told how she had waited
in the station, and then on the stree,
corner, until she was ''all het up,' enc
had left her palm-leaf fan on the train
and wondered if the plants would come
up again, and asked how Lucilla was

MAN TowED AROUND BY CARP
Dangerous Experience of a Fisher.
man Who Tied the Line
to His Wrist.

Harry Messersmith, of Plainfield, N.
j., had lively time with 20-pound
carp which he hooked in Tiers lake.
Instead of fishing with pole young
Messersmith tied the line around his
wrist and slowly trolled the hook
through the water as he rowed boat.
suddenfy he felt gentle nibble at the
bait, and a moment later the fish swal-
lowed the hook. There was heavy
tug at the line, and as it drew taut Mes
sersmith realized that he had made a
good catch of something. He dropped
the oars and jumped up in tie boat
and started to pull in the l1sc. The
captive, however, was game 91d put
up stiff fight that taxed the efforts
of Messersmith to overcome. By play
ing with the line Messersmith succeed
ed in gradually drawing his catch to
the surface of the water.
When the captive on the hook was
caught sight of by the fisherman it
fairly made his eyes bulge out of their
sockets in surprise. The fish was a
huge carp, fully two feet long and full
of fight. Messersmith forgot himself
in the excitement of the occasion and
lost his balance. A moment later he
overturned the boat and plunged into
the water. The carp readily took ad-
vantage of the loose line and started
to swim away rapidly, but soon found
itself at the end with taut line. Then
it began desperate struggle to gain
liberty, and in doing SO prevented Mes.
sersmith from using the one hand to
hold on to the overturned boat. The
strength of the fish in the water seemed
| to overcome that of Messersmith under
such disadvantages and the fisherman
found himself being pulled through the
| water toward dangerous place near
the dam at the end of the lake.
Messersmith became frightened at his
predicament, and, with one arm dis
abled by the constant and violent tug.
ging of the carp, he was in danger OF
| serious injury. In its course through
the water the carp swan close to the
shore, and Messersmith succeeded in
grabbing the roots of tree that pro-
| iected into the water. After a hard
struggle he finally succeeded in loosen
! ing the line and gained the bank, which
he clambered up in an exhausted cond;.
ton. The carp, hook and line disaD.
peared into deep water, and that is tie
last that Messersmith has seen of them
