Long, of EIkhart, In -
Korea.

Elkhart, Ind, July 22.-Mrs. Mary
Lang Johnson was formerly teacher
in the schools Of this city, but she
has been in Korea for several years
with her brothers, who are engaged in
mining near Gensan. With the begin
ming of hostilities Mrs. Johnson and
friends of her sex were ordered to
Chemulpo, there to take the cruiser
to a friendly port was beset with many
difficulties. Mrs. Johnson, en- route,
attempted to take a picture Of the
fortified terrace at Modji, beautiful
city, and she was arrested by the jap
anese as a spy. She has a crown of
snowy-white hair, out of keeping with
her years, and the Danish captain of
the little vessel, which was to take
the refugees away, knowing the rever-
ence which the Koreans and Japanese
entertain for age, talked long and ex-
aggeratedly of her years, extending
them to a hundred, and finally secured
her release.
The entire party was kept under
guard for several hours, but finally a
courier appeared waving an American
flag. The sight of the banner caused
all the Americans to shed tears. AT
ter this all members of the party were
compelled to display the American
colOrs at all times.

WHY Yorktown Is Cav,

Muncie, Ind, July pa big strike
of oil, the first in the western part Of
Delaware county, has been made by
the Eureka company, near Yorktown
Last fall this company drilled a we'll
and got a buster, and it was thought
that Muncle marked the western limit
Of the field. However, the Eureka
drilled again on the Williamson farm
The news spread like wild-fire in that
part of the county, and leases have ad-
vanced triple the former price The
Eureka we'll is giving $50 barrels per
twenty-four hours at present. Spec
ulators from Muncie made a rush for
the vicinity and work late into the
night to get leases. An impromptu
celebration was held on the streets of
Yorktown.

fessed was carefully guarded and with
held from the public. A strong guard
had been placed around the jail, the
sheriff taking every precaution
against surprise, as, during the long
range arraignment in the circuit court
Thursday, when the defendant re-
NAMED in Jail and permitted an at
tOrney to speak for him, numerous
threats were made by friends of the
injured girl, although there were no
outward demonstrations.

A telegram received from Elwood

day Henderson,
Now the only thing surprising in
this statement lies in the fact that
the company has been playing Elwood
for the past two weeks and has not
been able to accommodate the large
crowds. Good plays, good players,
good scenery and wardrobe tell the
story.
An effort is being made to secure
this company for an added week s

The Henderson Stock company

EGGS IN COCKTAIL.
New York Sum-

New DIX ouI.J
Humiliating as it is to our national
pride, it is necessary that America
should confess that its efforts to adapt
the habits of the residents of Cuba to
our standards have failed. In some
of the minor details of the island re-
public's life, in some official quarters,
there may be a show of "Americani
zatiOn.'' But the news from New Or
leans shows how completely we have
missed the mark in an essential par
ticular
The Southern Pacific steamship EX-
celsior, arriving in New Orleans July
16 from Havana, was obliged to re-
turn with part of her outgoing cargo,
a strike of the Cuban capitals Gus
tom house employees having made I'M
possible her unloading at that port.
The strike was ordered because one of
the employees was caught stealing an
egg. He was discharged and his COM
rades quit work at once, offering this
explanation of their conduct:
"Merely for having taken an egg,
for the sole purpose of making gin
cocktain, with no other intention than
to allay the thirst which the severity
Of the labor on the wharves produced,
the dismissal was made.'
An egg in a cocktail! The veneer of
American civilization must be thin
and frail upon people whic hcould
tolerate such a barbarism. 1t is as bad
as a lump of sugar in a rickey. Milk
in a julep would not be more horrible
to contemplate The egg has a proper
and worthy place in Mythology. 1t Is
used to advantage in the silver tizz
the golden fiZz, some varieties OF mill
punch and number of other pleas
ant connections. But a nation tina
would put eggs into cocktails IS no
yet Americanized.

DRAMATIC ENTERTAINMENT.

The drama, "Dot, the Miners
Daughter" was presented by local
talent at the ourt-house Wednes-
day evening to a crowded house.
The attendance was augmented by
visitors from Big Sandy, Hollow
Rock, Waverly and other nearby
towns as we'll as from the country.
The entertainment proved an
eutire success~in every particular.
The plot is full of interest from
beginning to end, and those who
took part are all entitled to much
praise for their creditable work.
The entertainment will be re-
peated at the courthouse tonight.
Tickets will be sold at popular
price of 10 cents for all. All who
attend will be sure to enjoy it and
treasure the memory of an even

WEIGHED 49o POUNDS.

Mrs. Sara Crabb, wife of Dunk
lin Crabb, who died last Saturday,
was probably the largest woman in
this part of the State, weighing ex-
actly 480 pounds a short time be-
fore her death. The family reside
near Brecheen in this county.
Mrs. Crabb was a Miss Conley
before her marriage, and began to
fieshen when quite young. For
the past few years she has been
able to walk only a short distance
with extreme difficulty, and this
factseemedto prey upon her mind.
For thisreason her actually weight
was never made known to her. It
seemed to satisfy her to be told
that she weighed only about $40
pounds, when it was known by the
family that it was 480 pounds.
She was buried Sunday at the
Malin burying-ground, which was
largely attended by relatives and
friends.

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

Huntingdon, Waverly and other
adjoining towns are going to have
big time on the Fourth of July.
Camden is backward in this re-
spect, and it is hardly probable
that any attempt will be made by
our citizens to observed the occa-
sion.
This is to be regretted. The
country at large should celebrate
the glorious Fourth next Monday.
1t is fitting time to revive the
spirit of patriotism which existed
in the trying times of 1776.
Let the Declaration of Indepen-
dence beread, patriotiosongs sung,
the orators tell us of the Gland of
the free and home of the brave, -
while "Old Glory" floats proudly
to every breeze as she is saluted
by the usual fireworks.
Rejoice and be glad, yea, thank
full, that we have such land and
such people.

The city fathers have adopted
new sanitary measures For the
town and inspectors have been APP
pointed. Now is a good time to
clean up. The inspectors should
go hunting for everything that
will breed or make sickness, and
see to it that the town is put in a
thorough sanitary condition.
1t is the general opinion of all
who attended the dedication of the
Methodist Church that Rev. DIR.
W. X. Piner delivered masterful
sermon, full of scholarly thought,
abounding in true eloquence, and
was delivered in an easy, graceful
and convincing manner In brief,
he dealt with the affairs that touch
the heart of humanity with del
icacy of tenderness that "stirs the
soul to thought and action"
The work of cleaning off and i'm
proving the grounds at Camden
Cemetery will begin next M onday,
and will be under the supervision
of Greene Bivens. About $50 has
been collected for this purpose,
and DR.. w. p. McGill, who has
been active in soliciting contribu-
tions, informs us that the public
has responded freely, many insist
ing on contributing more than the
amountsolicited. Others who did
not contribute to the fund have
volunteered to give a days labor
at the cemetery. This is only one
of the many instances of the open
hearted generosity of our people,
and we might add that it was never
more worthily bestowed.
