Relics Of Gold Hunters.

While plowing in his field near Eu-
faula recently Mr.. Charles Gibson un-
covered n large number of weapons,
some of which were rifles of an old
style, some blunderbusses, few old
time pistols and II couple of swords.
All these weapons are in fair state of
preservation and are apparently of
Spanish make,
According TO Greek tradition, party
of adventurous Spaniards, numbering
fifty-four In the year 1864 left New
Orleans on buiros and went to the ter
ritory in search of gold. They secured
all the precious metal they could car
rygsand on their way back they were
beset by a band Of Shawnees near
Standing Rock, eight miles east of
Eufaula, and great battle followed.
/. The Spaninrds, with the exception of
two who escaped on raft. were ami
hilated.
) 1t 10 supposed that the weapons
plowed up on Mr.. Gibson's place are
the ones that were used by the Span
iards mentioned above.-Kansas City

The English Face.

1t was an American who, meeting an
Englishman in country hotel in the
States, opened conversation sympathet-
ically with the words: "Cheer upl 1t
may not be true, and if 1t is true it
may be all for the best" And he was
surprised to find that the Britons look
of acute gloom was normal and not the
result of any more than ordinarily bad
news. The prevailing notion of the
American with regard to the English
man is that he looks ''as If his only
friend on earth was a yellow dog, and
he had lost the dog" For years the
inhabitants of the States have been
scrutinizlng the faces of British WIS.,
itors to try to ascertain whether their
resigned expression is due to a recent
bereavement, confirmed misanthropy or
simply to superciliousness. According
to weekly paper, some Americans at
tribute the English face to the English
climate. ''They did not look actually
sad" said an American lady to the
writer, "or happy or preoccupied, but
they one and all had an expression of
resignation-the only state of mind pos
sible with an English climate" This
Is an ingenious explanation. Centuries
of rain and years of fog may have had
their effect on our looks. There is, in
deed, certain dignity in the idea.-

One of Tyndai1's Heroic Experiments


In 1864 Tyndall performed the ex-
pertinent of separating light from heat.
In the course Of the Investigations
which enabled him to do this he made
one OF the most daring experiments
that ever scientific man ventured on.
Knowing layer of iodine placed be-
fore the eye Intercepted the light, he
determined to place his own eye in the
focus of strong invisible rays. He
knew that If in doing so the dark rays
We're absorbed in a high degree by the
humors Of the eyes the albumen of
the humors might coagulate, and, on
the other hand, If there was no high
absorption the rays might strike upon
the-retina with force sufficient to de-
stroy it. When he first, brought his
eye undefended near the dark focus the
heat on the parts surrounding the pupil
was, too intense to be endured He
therefore made an aperture inthe plate
Of the metal and, placing his eye be-
hind this aperture, he gradually ap-
preached the point of conveyance of
the invisible rays. First the pupil and
next the retina were placed in the focus
without any sensible damage. Imme-
'diately afterward sheet of platinum
foil placed in the position which the
retina had occupied became red hot.

quiet! IFS funny how all New York
does iuake the most of a holiday. Mr..
Merrill said you weren't feeling well,
but / think it would have done you
good togo out
Francesca slipped at her coffee with
out replying NE
: "Seeins as If just must go myself,
but Lizzie, she was set on taking the
day Off, and she's such a good help
didn't want to cross her, but do hate
to miss going to the cemetery. Isn't
it funny, MIR. Merrill and l coming
from the same town? l knew just how
lie felt this morning when he said
he'd go out and decorate some graves.
We always did 1t at home, with the
&. A. IL. at the head OF the procession
and the children carrying the flowers
and wreaths. l didn't lose anybody
close in the war, as near as | can re-
member but it meant lot to Dick
Merrill's folks"
Francesca looked up suddenly.
"Ain't he even told you?" Mrs. Miller
said in esulprise. -""Wen,- mebbe he
thought tile. war was, a tender subject
with you southeiners. Why, his grand
father enlisted and took his three boys
with him. All four of 'em are buried
among the unlsnown dead somewheres
south of the Mason and Dixon line.
Mary Ann Merrill--that's Dicks moth
er-she somehow couldn't make things
go, and she wound up in the poor farm.
Yes. there We're, plenty of folks that
took TO the poor farms after the war.
But Dick. he wasn't the kind to stay
there. Blood will tell, and he had
more of his fathers blood than his
mothers in him. When I see him, so
straight and good looking, so well
dressed and carrying himself as IL he
expected to own New York before he
got done, say that blood will tell
every time. There's some folks that
even having their whole family wiped
out by the war won't down, and that's
the sort Dick is. My laws, there's that
bell again! Don't you want any more
toast? Well, you'd better come down
after awhile and We'll have a little
lunch. None of the boarders will be
home before dinner time"
But one of the boarders did come
in very soon. He had a florists box
in his hand, and he walked quietly into
Mrs. NIiller's sitting room, where
Francesca, looking bit pale from her
headache. but very sweet and gentle,
rose at his entrance.
"Oh, Dick, have you come back for
me? Is it too late to goT
81 guess we won't go, Francesca.
You see, didn't understand-and these
are violets for you instead"
"Oh, but we will go, you and l to-
gether, dear 1t was / who didn't un-
derstand, and we must have common
interests. dear heart. We can't afford
to let the old feud come between us of
the third generation. Well scatter
those violets over the graves of the un-
known dead"
And so they went forth into the beau
tiful spring sunlight, and Mrs. Miller,
peeping from behind the curtains of
the basement, smiled as If sight Of
them had made the whole day glad for
her.

THOMAS DECLINES TO GO
Appraiser of Customs al Chicago Says
lie Is Being iemoved With
out Cause.

Chicago. Jan. although Luman
I. Hoy has been nominated to succeed
General Horace I. Thomas as apprais-
er of customs at this port. the resig-
nation of General Thomas, requested
by the secretary of the treasurer. has
not been sent in, nor will il be. General
Thomas will appeal to the president TO
find out why his resignation was asked
for. In letter 10 the secretary Of the
treasury calling for General Thomas
resignation il is stated that the pUr-
pose is not to make place for another
and that here is nothing political in
the request: that the Office has been
temporarily examined twice. and it
seems necessary TO secure vigorous
administration.
General Thomas In reply says that
there was no charge of misfeasance, or
malfea sance. or any scandal. and that
especially good work had been done in
unearthing frauds at other ports. He
also wrote the president calling atten-
ton TO the gentlemen who Endorsed
him as appraiser. No reply was re-
ceived from the president. but Secre-
tary Shaw asked the general to advise
him by telegraph whether his letter
was intended as a refusal to send in
his resignation.
