Find Relics of Civil War.

W. ID. Short, who lives near Rut.
lodge, has recently dug up on his
farm sixty-four old muskets which
have lain buried since the spring Of
1868. The farm where Mr.. Short lives
was once owned by his father at the
time of the civil war and the story
Of the guns is an interesting one.
Colonel Glover, with iorce of
union soldiers, had camped near the
Short homestead and were preparing
supper when a troop of confederate
cavalry dashed upon them and cap.
tIred the company; Colonel Glovers
coldiers were equipped with fuse"
guns, an army musket superseded
throughout the army by more mod
ern weapons long before the war
closed. The confederate troopers took
the guns, but finding they had no am
munition for the old style weapons
left them on the farm of Mr. Short.
The possession of so formidable a
display of arms at that period. when
even a squirrel rifle was on the pro-
hibited list, very much alarmed Mr..
Short and his family, and that night a,
trench was dug. the guns piled in
and covered over. There the weap-
ons have rested until one day last
week when w. ID. Short by accident
found the resting place of the old
firelocks and brought them to light.
The stocks are all rotted off and
the iron barrels, rods and bayonets
eaten with rust, but they show plainly
the style of the gun, and locks and
hands are all intact. Since his find
has become known Mr.. Short has
been besieged by relichunters for the
old guns and he has given them out
to all applicants as souvenirs until all
but two or three of the guns are gone.

THE COW WAS CURIOUS.
She Visited Saloon, stc-. and a
Hotel During Her Promenade,

The proverbial bull in the china
shop was literally outclassed last
night by a rebellious COW that broke
away from its herd and raided two
stores and a hotel near Sixteenth and
Market streets.
The COW belonged to herd which
was being driven east on Market
street. When the animal reached
Seventeenth and Market streets, the
COW became stubborn and refused to
follow its companionss It'trotted away
and before the drovers could stop IL
entered the saloon of Edward Cronin
at 1918 Market street.
There were sixteen or eighteen men
lined up around the bar. and when
"Sookie' strolled calmly ir many of
them imagined that a friend of the
neither regions had taken new form.
There was a wild scamper and the
place was deserted in a minute. After
knocking few glasses from the bar
the COW left the place.
1t then calmly strolled into the dry
goods store at 1916 Market street. A
number of women were in the store
shopping, and those that wore red
lodged out of sight in the twinkling
of an eye. Then the others followed
within a minute later.
Then the COW left the store and
sauntered into the womans entrance
to the Keystone hotel, few doors
away. Night Clerk Hoff threw up
mis- hands and fed. The animal walk
ed through the hallway and then
scattered the guests in the dining
room. In the kitchen three women
cooks dropped pans and dishes and
skipped out of "Sookie's", way.
Then the COW tried to go upstairs
The staircase was narrow, however
and ii became fast about halfway up
With the help of several men the COW
was pulled downstairs by it's tail
1t rejoined the rest of the herd and
later tried to ascend the steps of the
Arcade building, but the drovers head
ID it off.-Chicago News.
