BOTTLE FLoATED ACROSS SEA
Picked UP In the Azores Three Years
After Being Cast AdrIft on
.''' Carolina Coast.

Floating sluggishly at the mercy Of
the waves for over three years a pint
bottle containing the address of VIII
liam II Windolph, this city, travelled
across the Atlantic ocean and was
finally picked up OF the eastern coast
OF the Azores about nve weeks ago.
The hayward travels OF the little
bottle are most mysterious. It crossed
the Atlantic or at least reached the
other shore; whether currents or
winds took It miles in detour before
1t reached its destination is q subject
Of conjecture.
On January 81, 1907, Mr.. Windolph
on his way to Tampa and Key West
passed down the coast Of the Caro-
ltnas in Merchants and Miners
steamship, the Merrimac. on North
Carolina in an idle moment he put his
card within a whisky bottle and push

vessel tossed 1t overheard. Until It
disappeared from sight in the green
waves Mr.. Windolph watched the tiny
adventurer. never thinking to hear
from II again.
Three and one-half years after the
card had been sent out on the sea
strange letter came to him from the
fishing firm Of Manuel vasconcelles &
Co. Spain. Within the envelope was
the same card which he had sent out,
unstained by the water. uninjured Aft.
er its long voyage.
With the card was a letter stating
that 1t had been picked up in q whisky

Azores. in the province Of Prala, By

GOLD NUGGET IN A DUCK.

Boone, Dec. 10.-L. O. Hutson OF
near Jordan was the prossesser OF not
the goose that laid the golden egg:
but duck that had gold nugget in
its gizzard. Tuesday the duck was
killed and dressed and within its giz,
zard was found shining bit OF pure
gold the size of perhaps half pea
Where the bird had gotten the bit OF
gold no one can say. but few prob.
able sources are conjectured by the
family. The most favorable of these
is the gravel heaps which have been
on the place this fall. to be used for
building purposes. There is also a
stream a short distance away, but 1t
is hardly likely that it is the place
where the nugget was found.
e. Hutson brought the piece to
Boone and 1t was tt sted by one OF the
Jewelers. and found to be pure.
Every once in while, similar finds
have been made in different parts OF
to state. but no gold bearing lodes
have been found, AZ the source OF
these particlet and it is probable they
have been washed here in far distant
ages when this part of the country was
a great inland lake.

Well Known Fairfield Nurse Seccumb.
to Typhoid-Pneumonla-
Burial,

I
Fairfield, Dec 1O.-Hundreds of
friends in this city and county were
s hooked to learn of the death of Miss
Mary Kendall after an illness of three
weeks. Miss Kendall was taken Ill
with typhoid fever and only few days
ago pneumonia developed.
Miss Kendall was born in Jeffer-
son county November 80, 1864 and was
the daughter Of Mr. and Mrs David
Kendall we'll known pioneer settlers
who have proceeded her in death. She
was reared on farm near Brighton
and spent several years of her life in
Washington county.
Miss Kendall was stricken with
typhoid fever about three years ago
and for weeks was very i'll and 1t 10
thought that the illness at that time
weakened her system so that she was
never as strong since. She has been
constantly owe. sick bed for the past
year and had often taken special cases
to her home
There was short funeral service
held at the home on e. Washington
street. Rev. Montgomery of Presby-
terrain church having charge. The re-
mains were taken to Brighton where

FAVORS RELEASE
Of QUINCY CLUB
PRESIDENT T. r. LYNCH WILL
VOTE FOR FREEDOM OF GEM
CITY FOR $500.

President Frank T. Lynch Of the To-
cal base ball association favors the re-
lease OF Quincy from the Central asso-
citation for $1,000. He is in receipt OF a
letter from President Harry Hofer or
the Quincy club asking for mail vote
pn Quincy's release for the above sum
and he will vote faye" to the PROPOSE
tion. President Lynch believes that II
would be poor investment for the
when they can secure good sum for
1t. The fans of Quincy declare that
they will not support Central associa-
ton ball.
Quincy offer at the Galesburg meeting
short time ago, President Hofer OF
Quincy got permission OF President
Justice, the league head, to place the
matter before the directors by mail
and he has addressed letters to the
directors Of the seven other cities IN
the circuit. The various associations
will take mail vote on the matter
and the Quincy president believes that
the directors will reconsider their &C
ton and give Quincy her freedom for
the sum of $500. Muscatine is desir-
pus OF getting into the Central associa-
ton and a club In that city would pc
nearly as good an investment as IN
Quincy and the same time the Central
association treasury would be richer
slidate for place in the circuit;
Quincy's release however will be hard
on Hannibal as it would make a Ions
Jump and with no Central ball at
Quincy, interest would be lost in the
game at Hannibal. Manager Ned Egan

Ing Quincy her release.
