when he entered a plea of guilty to
the charge of bribery in the city light
irg zeal, and threw himself on the
mercy of Judge Mcdonald.
Tie plea was entered after an in.
direct appeal to Circuit Attorney Folk.
The appeal was simply an effort to
learn how much time Mr.. Folk would
insist on, and when the circuit attor-

Bersch took the next best step and
threw himself on the mercy of the
court.

so long have stood rock-like and faced

turn states evidence and give Circuit
Attorney Folk the information on
which he expects to land some of the
bribers.

100000 people our output is
280,0O0,000 tons or 81 tons per

CAMPING OUT.
BLUE G.. BARD.
Lots of fun camping out,

Lots of fun camping out,
Happy all day long,
Listening to the bull-frogs croak
And the birds sweet song.
Feel just fine camping out,
Sleep so we'll at night;
Fellows hungry all the time,
Eat everything in sight.
Don't get sick camping out,
No DOCTORS bill to pay;
Breathe the pure country air,
With scent of new mown hay.
Life seems brighter camping out,
Contentment In the breeze;
Love to watch the children play
Among the walnut trees.
Feel so free camping out,
Sing loud as you please,
No one there to hear you
But the lake and trees.
Food is better camping out,
Can't get enough to eat;
Wouldn't touch fat meat In town,
Now we think it's sweet.
Fish, sometimes, camping out,
When the sign is right;
When it's not, no use to try,
Darned old fish won't bite.
Take boat rides camping out,
When the moon shines bright,
Finest sport ever was
On the lake at night.
Don't get lonely camping out,
Friends come In q drove;
II the tent wont hold them,
Go to the walnut grove.
Rains, sometimes, camping out,
And the guy ropes pop;
Don't care, tho, II they do,
Know It's bound TO stop.
Don't get lonely camping out,
Life's one glad, sweet song;
Only thing makes me sad,
Know 1t can't last long.

New York, June 29.-Treasurer Of
the orient, contained in AZ cases, have
been found secreted on the British
steamship Indrawadi by treasury
agents. The seizure is valued at more
than $4,000, and is the largest OF the
kind ever made in this port. Besides
bolts Of silk, there were many cases
containing Chinese antiquities, and Gu
rios, which were taken from the pal
ace and temples at the time of the oc-
supation Of Chinese territory by for
eign troops.
Treasury Agents On watch.
For some time past special treasury
agents who watch the invoices OF all
vessels have noticed that at certain
Japanese and Chinese shops there were
articles for sale that were out Of the
ordinary run of goods found at such
places, and they began to watch the
ships which might bring such goods.
After the indrawadi's manifest had
been checked of and the cargo unload
ed, the treasury agents visited the
crews quarters, where they found sew
eral men making attempts TO sleep in
hunks that looked overloaded. The
men were routed out and from beneath
mattresses the officers took box after
box of the finest silk handkerchiefs,
hand-cmbroidered in exquisite designs.
In the carpenters room they found a
huge box all tied up and ready for
shipment, which, when opened revealed
a remarkable collection of curios.
There were pieces of finely-carved
ivory, small idols in gold, and silver,
and pieces of dainty chlnaware were
tucked neatly away, throughout the
box.
Behind = False Partition.
The agents made a thorough search
from stem to stern. They came upon
what was apparently a false partition.
which they tore away and found with
In AZ cases containing tea sets and
vases, peacock and ostrich feathers and
Chinese screens of the rarest patters,
valued at several hundred dollars each.
The officers OF the ship expressed
surprise that such things could have
come aboard without their knowledge,
and hey expressed their willingness to
aid in the capture of the guilty per-
sons.
No One Claims the Goods.
Moody on the ship would claim a
single thing, so no arrests were made.
The goods will be held for a time and
then will be sold at public auction.

MINING NOTES.

Mt. Sterling, KY, June 25.-
Reliable information states that
John II. Durand and L. M. Law
son, representing Pennsylvania
capitalists, have closed a deal
with Leslie county people for
$4,000 acres of coal and timber
lands in Knott, Pike and Leslie
counties and as soon as the pa
pers are all signed will begin
active operations. Three mines
will be opened in different parts
of the territory and two mills
will be erected, one saw and
stave mill and the other plan.
ing mill. The lands are located
along the route of TIE proposed
railroad through that section and
are said to be among the richest
mineral and timber lands in
Eastern Kentucky. The price
paid is said to have been $12 an
acre. The lands have been much
sought after by investors, and
when the Chesapeake & Ohio
began the erection of the road
to Paintsville the Pennsylvania
people went after the property
in earnest. When the coal mines
contemplated are opened ter
ritory which is conceded to be
the richest in the State will be
opened. Experts say the supply
of camel and bituminous coal in
that section is inexhaustible and
that within a few weeks a num-
Der of options now held by East
ern people will be closed.
The editor of the Manufacture
ers' Record has recently COM
piled very interesting statistics
about the production of btu
minous coal in the South. He
says:
SIN $4,000 the total bitumin-
GUS coal production of the Unit
ed States was 100000 tons. As
late as 1S79,SO it was 100000
tons, of which 100000 tons was
the output of the Southern
States. Last year the output
was 29O,OOO,OOO tons, and the
output of the South 100000
tons, or ten times the South's
output in 1880, and more than
ten times as much as the total of
the United States in 1S59-60,
and so per cent, or 20,000,00
tons, more than that of the Unit
ed States only "A years ago, or
in 1879-80.
